Fast Traveling Underworld Wish Department

Chapter 131
Quanzhong arrived at Lin's house with the minister of the household department. Quanzhong announced the imperial decree again. The minister of the household department asked people to take away the money from the warehouse. He glanced at the moved out property, and then wondered: "Is it all here? I heard When Mrs. Lin got married"

"Cough..." Quan Zhong coughed and interrupted the servant of the household department. What was he talking about? It's already very good for someone to donate the family's wealth, but he still wants someone's dowry!So stunned, no wonder the emperor doesn't like him.

Originally, Quanzhong was about to leave, but now he still stood there for a while, waiting for the servant of the household department to finish the work, so don't let the emperor's good intentions go to waste.

Li Shuzhen also said: "Elder-in-law, please drink some tea and wait a while, I also want to ask you if there is any violation of regulations in the mansion."

Quan Zhong said: "Although Mr. Lin has gone, but Madam is a second rank imperial order, so don't have any scruples, just go on as usual."

Li Shuzhen said: "My father-in-law said that, so I am relieved. My husband has just left, and I have no idea."

Quan Zhong: "Master Lin has already gone, Madam and the county chief express condolences, just pay attention to your health."

The two chattered a few more words, and the household servant finally counted the belongings. Quan Zhong stood up and asked, "Master servant, can we go?"

Hubu Shilang said: "Eunuch's errands are finished, just go, I still have a little problem."

Quan Zhong choked for a moment, and sat down again, "I'd better wait for the adults to finish their work and go together, so that I can reply to the emperor at that time."

The household servant turned to Li Shuzhen and said, "Madam Lin, I have a few questions for you."

Li Shuzhen said gently: "My lord, please speak."

Minister of the Household Department: "As far as I know, Mr. Lin came from a poor family. According to his salary, he shouldn't have so much property."

Li Shuzhen said: "Your Excellency, I don't know that my husband is indeed from a poor family. Although he was lucky enough to pass the exam and become an official, the cost of staying in the capital is too much, so I took out a few shops in the dowry to do business. So, over the years, my husband has gradually been promoted and his salary has increased, so we invested the extra money."

The servant of the household department quickly calculated, and then said stiffly: "What investment is so profitable, Mrs. Lin has opened my eyes. If Mrs. Lin can't tell, I will submit a book to the emperor."

Li Shuzhen was sure that this servant of the household department was either too rigid or had a grudge against the Lin family.

Li Shuzhen said: "My lord, all the investment books we have made have been marked. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and Shuntian Mansion to investigate. My husband and I are doing the right thing, sitting upright, and not afraid of what your lord says. Like a knife."

Quan Zhong hurriedly came out to smooth things over, and at the same time, he was even more dissatisfied with the servant of the household department. Isn't this looking for trouble?

After Quanzhong played a smooth game, the atmosphere was a little better.The servant of the household department said again: "Mrs. Lin, even if the Lin family really invests properly, but the finances are still not right. Could it be that Mrs. Lin donated property and hid a fortune?"

Faced with such unkind words, Li Shuzhen was also very angry, but noble ladies usually want to put on a face, so she just raised her voice slightly, and said with displeasure in her words: "Could it be that my lord has enmity with my husband? The comings and goings are clearly listed in the account book one by one, and the adults still ask me again and again, what is the reason?"

"My lord's question is not clearly written in the account book? My husband started in the infancy, and all the people in the clan are from the countryside. Now that you are an official, can you ignore the clan? Don't you need to feed back the clan when you become famous? ?”

As if he had heard something happy, a smile flashed across the corner of the servant's mouth, and he said in his usual flat tone: "In this case, why not let Lord Lin's clansmen confront each other. You can't just listen to Mrs. Lin's opinion on the matter. One-sidedness."

Li Shuzhen is now sure that this servant of the household department really has a grudge against the Lin family. According to the memory of the former body in that life, the Lin family and clan are all white-eyed wolves who don't remember kindness. Let them confront each other, not to mention whether they can find the truth. The donation of the Lin family's property might become a complete joke.

Li Shuzhen donated property in order to get the protection of the emperor. If the emperor was displeased by this, what was the point of her donating property?
These thoughts flashed through her mind quickly, Li Shuzhen turned her head and said to Quanzhong: "Father-in-law, I miss my husband and am willing to donate all my family wealth to enrich the national treasury, and the only thing left is my dowry for our mother and daughter to chew on, and my son's future." Dowry. But this lord has been aggressive again and again, does he think that our Lin family is a prisoner and he is an official who came to raid the house?"

Quan Zhong hurriedly said: "Ma'am, you are worrying too much. Your servant is just a routine inquiry, and there is absolutely no other meaning. Isn't that right, Your servant?" There was a threat in Quan Zhong's words.

The Minister of Hube was silent for a moment, and Quan Zhong called out again before he replied: "Yes, I am just making a routine inquiry. If Mrs. Lin has a clear conscience, don't worry too much."

Hubu Shilang also realized that there was no other gain from this trip, so he left with Quanzhong with his belongings.

After Quanzhong returned to the palace, he told the emperor about the reaction of the servant of the Ministry of Household Department. Let’s not mention the reaction of the minister of the household department. He said that on the Lin’s side, after the angel left, Mama Li said to Li Shuzhen: "Madam, this old slave always thinks that the minister of the household Not quite right."

Of course not, would a normal person be so rude to the widow of a colleague and interrogate her like a prisoner?

Li Shuzhen said: "Mom, don't think too much, maybe this adult has such a personality. The most important thing now is the master's affairs. You should pay more attention to see when the master's coffin will return to Beijing, so we can post to others."

Mother Li said: "Yes."

Li Wanyu ran over and hugged Li Shuzhen's leg, "Mother."

Li Shuzhen said softly, "Why is Wanyu here?"

Wan Yu said: "Wan Yu thinks what mother said is wrong, that adult must have enmity with father to make things difficult for mother."

Li Shuzhen looked around, except for their mother and daughter, only Li's mother who followed her, and Bai Su who followed Wanyu.She picked up Wanyu and sat on the chair, then asked, "Why does Wanyu think so?"

Wan Yu said: "Daddy told me that when people are insignificant, they will pity the poor and the weak. Now that Daddy is gone, Mother and I are not threatened. Most people will definitely pity us and comfort us. But this Adults are not like that.”

Li Shuzhen smiled, Wanyu was indeed taught very well.

Li Shuzhen said: "Wanyu, isn't there a saying that seeing is believing and hearing is not? Now everything is your speculation, even if it makes sense, you shouldn't say it, so as not to wrong others and make yourself appear narrow-minded." .”

"Mom, what should I do?"

Li Shuzhen said: "Take this gentleman as an example. He has a bad attitude towards us, so we will have some bad conjectures. At this time, we should look for evidence to overturn this conjecture. If no evidence is found in the end, we will You can be wary of him in your heart, or you can stay away from him, but you should not tell others about him."

Wan Yu nodded, "I understand, mother."

Li Shuzhen nodded, educating a child, she still hopes that her heart will be bright.

She stroked Wanyu's head and praised, "Wanyu is so smart."

These words were like a switch, Wan Yu's eye circles turned red immediately, and she choked up and said, "Daddy praised me that much too."
