I married the wrong man, and I sent him and his whole family to be executed.
Chapter 40 Help him
If she wants to go, he will accompany her at any time. If Yu Wangfei doesn't want to go, he can't force her to go.
Although flowers bloom and wither at certain times, and after this period of time, all the poppies in the valley will wither, he had already ordered people to cultivate hundreds of poppies in the flower room.
As long as Yu Wangfei wanted to see it, he could fill the valley with poppies at any time.
"I found that you are a little different from before." Yu Wangfei tilted her head slightly and looked at Chu Yuheng with curiosity.
I don’t know what he went through in Jiangnan, but he seemed like a different person after returning to Beijing.
"I met two people in Jiangnan. I'll take you to see them when I have the chance." Chu Yuheng responded proactively.
It was those two people who taught him how to cherish and respect the people around him.
"Okay." Yu Wangfei agreed immediately.
If her revenge is achieved, she might really go to the south of the Yangtze River with Chu Yuheng to see what the misty rain in the south looks like.
Soon what happened during the day was reported back to the Gu family. After learning about it, Mrs. Gu angrily scolded Yu Qiaoqiao for being a fool. At the same time, she wondered why Yu Wangfei wanted to help.
The Marquis' Mansion was not kind to her. In fact, if Yu Wangfei hadn't been pregnant, she would have been tortured to death by them.
"Perhaps she is the Crown Prince's wife now. It would be unreasonable not to help her." Mrs. Gu guessed.
They would never believe that Yu Wangfei was thinking about the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion.
However, after this incident, Old Madam Gu felt more and more that Yu Qiaoqiao was a waste. She used to love Qiaoqiao very much, but the series of things that happened during this period made her feel that Yu Qiaoqiao was not worthy of being Gu Baizhou's wife.
Fortunately, Yu Qiaoqiao was allowed to enter the house as a concubine at that time, otherwise, with her intelligence, it would be a laughing stock for her to sit in the position of a co-wife.
The embezzlement case has not yet been concluded. In order to get the people to support Gu Baizhou's investigation, the Gu family can only go out to distribute porridge every day. However, after what happened today, Mrs. Gu was worried about Yu Qiaoqiao going alone.
Yu Qiaoqiao was worried that she would not be able to deal with other people causing trouble, so after careful consideration, she asked Nanny Du to go and call Yu Wangfei.
"Yu, I heard that you left home during the day." Old Madam Gu held the Buddhist beads in her hand and closed her eyes slightly.
Yu Wangfei lowered her head and thought for a moment: "Yes, Yunhua's menstrual cloth was stolen. I went out of the house to buy some cloth for her, so that the Seventh Prince would know that we are very good to his people."
She had actually forgotten about this. Yu Qiaoqiao saw her leaving the house, and she had contact with people from the Gu family outside the city. No matter what, Old Madam Gu would know that she had left the house.
After thinking about it, she decided to bring up Yunhua. At least, since they believed that Yunhua was the Seventh Prince's person, they would not easily doubt her.
"You did a good job during the day." Madam Gu opened her eyes. "Are you interested in going outside the city to distribute porridge in the next few days?"
Today she had no intention of asking about Yu Wangfei's whereabouts, she just wanted to find a reason to let her take charge.
"Not interested." Yu Wangfei shook his head.
"This matter is related to the case that Bai Zhou handled in the city." Old Madam Gu's eyes were a little fierce.
"I'm pregnant and need to take care of the baby." Yu Wangfei sat down calmly and stroked her belly with her hand.
"What do you want?" Madam Gu asked directly.
Looking at Yu Wangfei's expression, she really didn't want to go, but if she really didn't want to go, she would just find an excuse to leave. But she didn't leave now, instead she sat down.
So Old Madam Gu thought that Yu Wangfei was waiting for her to make conditions.
"To answer grandma's question, it's very expensive to give out porridge, and I don't have any money." Yu Wangfei pouted innocently.
What she was thinking in her heart was that their Gu family had taken five hundred taels from Chu Yuheng, and she must make the Marquis' Mansion return the money.
"Just go to the accounting office and get as much as you need." Old Madam Gu gritted her teeth.
"I'm sure grandma has heard about it. If anyone comes to cause trouble today, I will definitely have to ask some people who know some martial arts to help." Yu Wangfei deliberately glanced at the old lady.
"Okay, go to the accounting office and get it. I will talk to your mother-in-law about it."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wangfei pretended to be reluctant and agreed.
It would be best to use the Gu family's money to enhance your own reputation.
Even though the people knew that the family that provided the porridge was from the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion, they recognized the person who provided them the porridge more. Before it was Yu Qiaoqiao, and now it was her, Yu Wangfei.
Gu Baizhou and Lord Gu stayed up for several nights in the Ministry of Revenue and finally found the officials who had come into contact with the disaster relief money. The next morning, they brought people to question them one by one.
But with the way he investigates, even if he investigates for three to five years, it will be almost nothing.
How could someone with ulterior motives put the embezzled money out in the open?
Chu Yuheng stood quietly on the top floor of the theater, watching Gu Baizhou and his men search house by house.
"How stupid." Chu Yuheng curled his lips speechlessly, then called the guards around him, "Go and help them."
Three days later, at the morning court, Gu Baizhou wrote down all the information he had found out in a booklet and presented it to the emperor. The emperor was very pleased when he saw it, thinking that another capable minister who could work for him had appeared in the court.
"Good, good, you did a good job, my dear. You caught the corrupt official so quickly."
"Your Majesty taught me well." Lord Gu immediately came out to claim credit, "This old minister and I have been searching for information in the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Personnel. After we had evidence, we went door to door to search, and only then did we successfully catch the corrupt official."
"Yes, the Marquis and the Prince moved their bedding and other things to the Ministry of Revenue." Another minister couldn't help but sneer.
The emperor's face suddenly darkened when he heard this. He didn't understand how they could find the real culprit with the way they were investigating the case.
Could it be that all his ministers were fools, keeping the embezzled money at home for them to check?
"Oh?" The emperor looked at Gu Baizhou seriously, "How did you find this silver?"
Gu Baizhou thought the emperor was going to praise him, so he quickly replied, "Your Majesty, when I led people to investigate Minister Li's residence, I found it in the cellar where he kept his vegetables."
Chu Yuheng, who was standing aside, tried his best to control his urge to laugh.
This matter must be the work of Chu Yuheng.
He deliberately asked the guards to find a group of people to frame Gu Baizhou.
First, they found a burly man and asked him to deliberately put a jade bracelet into the vendor's vegetable basket. Then they found a few people to pretend to be victims and falsely accuse the vegetable farmers of stealing their jade bracelets.
After witnessing the whole process, Gu Baizhou immediately came up with an idea.
Just because of the Yunhua incident, Chu Yuheng gave him five hundred taels of silver, and this silver became the money for Gu Baizhou to buy an official position.
Even though Lord Gu was reluctant to part with the money, why not use it to make Gu Baizhou appreciated by His Majesty?
"You found four hundred taels of silver in the cellar." The emperor sneered, "Tell the truth!"
