Li Hongyuan said, "There is no transaction between us, nor would I take advantage of you in your time of need. We are of one body, so naturally, I will be of help should you need it."
"I'm not in the mood today."
Anyone who had just lost a million taels of silver would not be in the mood to deal with the activities of the bedchamber.
Pesky!
Li Hongyuan, however, did not insist further. He seemed to be more in a playful mood as he had the evidence delivered to her shortly after he left.
Jiang Ning spent half the night examining the evidence. The next day, she woke up with dark circles under her eyes to find several concubines already seated in Crystal Clear Manor.
When Jiang Ning got dressed and went out, she noticed that they all had boxes in their hands.
They were some of the concubines who had good relationships with her on normal days.
Even Concubine Zhu, who had recently been favored, was present.
