After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

"There are Sun Wanqiang, Liu Qianhe, Zhou Yu, and two others I don't know. They were brought here by Sun Wanqiang."

Bai Youyou asked Xiaoju to take a piece of paper and write down all the names, then instructed Xiaoju: "Go and ask Li He to come over and throw Zimo into Aunt Qiao's yard. Also, lock this idiot in the woodshed and don't give him any food for three days!"

"Why do you lock me up? I'm your brother!"

Hearing this, Bai Luochuan stared at her with bloodshot eyes.

Seeing that he still hadn't repented, Bai Youyou couldn't help but walk up to him and kicked him hard in the heart.

"Why?"

"Because you are an idiot!"

"You've caused so much trouble that you need your younger sister, who hasn't even reached the age of marriage, to clean up your mess!"

"Brainless thing!"

"You are not good enough to do anything, but you are more likely to cause trouble! If you were not born by your mother, I would give you a damn death!"

Bai Youyou finished cursing in one breath, then walked out of the room with the list in hand.

Xiao Ju glanced at him angrily, "Second Young Master, don't blame me for being disrespectful. You are really stupid and hopeless."

After saying that, he shook his head and sighed, and went out to find Li He to pick up the person.

The weather was gloomy and stuffy, making it hard to breathe.

Bai Youyou rode the white pony that Lu Chen specially trained for her, 'da da da', to Qiao's house.

Judging from what Qiao Bing said today, he should know those people.

The Qiao family's doorman bowed and nodded when he saw her, "Miss Bai Si, you are here."

The original owner, Bai Youyou, had been to the Qiao family several times before, and the Qiao family’s doorman recognized her.

Bai Youyou stepped off the saddle and said, "I'm looking for your Master Qiao Bing."

"Unfortunately, our Third Young Master has gone out and hasn't come back yet." The doorman asked flatteringly, "Would you like to come in and have a cup of hot tea?"

"No, if your third young master comes back, ask him to come to Yongning Marquis Mansion to find me tomorrow. I have something to ask him."

Bai Youyou gave instructions and immediately rode his horse in the other direction.

Gambling houses should all know each other's background. Jiang Tingxiao opened a gambling house, so he should know all kinds of people.

The shopkeeper of Xunbaolou saw her and came forward with a smile, "Miss, do you want to buy something or pawn something? Our shop operates with integrity and never cheats anyone—"

Bai Youyou raised her hand to stop him, "Boss, I'm Bai Youyou from Yongning Marquis' Mansion. I'm looking for your boss Jiang Tingxiao. Is he here now?"

"Our boss is not in the store today, does Miss Bai have any urgent business?"

The shopkeeper saw that she looked serious and he also stopped smiling.

"It's urgent, can you please ask him to come over now?"

Bai Youyou nodded.

The longer this matter is delayed, the more accidents will happen. The sooner it is resolved, the better.

"Please go up to the third floor and have a cup of hot tea. I will send someone to invite our host."

The boss had previously instructed that if Fourth Miss Bai came to see him, he must be informed immediately.

The shopkeeper did not dare to delay and immediately sent a few people out to look for someone.

Jiang Tingxiao and Lu Huaizhen were drinking tea in the teahouse diagonally opposite Yun Ni Fang. Seeing Yun Ni Fang's limited daily sales but still in short supply, he was so envious that he almost got red eyes.

"Do you know who provided the jewelry patterns for Wanbaolou?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Tingxiao gritted his teeth.

That girl, who never showed her true face, actually knew this skill, causing the profit of his Zanhualou to plummet in the past two months.

"who?"

"It's that damn girl Bai Youyou!"

Lu Huaizhen drank tea, listened to the clacking sound of his teeth, and raised his eyebrows.

"It's actually her."

Seeing that he was still smiling, Jiang Tingxiao said unhappily, "What's with that expression on your face? You also have a share in the Zanhua Tower, and this damn girl is trying to steal our meat now!"

"She is a little girl who earns her living by her own ability. The painters in the Hairpin Flower House cannot compare to her. It is because they are not as skilled as others. Can we blame others?"

Lu Huaizhen didn't get angry but laughed instead, and even showed an expression of admiration.

"That little girl not only secretly stole my business, but now she is using my skin to make a fortune privately. It's really frustrating just thinking about it."

Jiang Tingxiao was still annoyed for a while, then he remembered something, "Didn't you say that little girl Bai Youyou would come to me for cooperation? Why haven't you seen her in a few days?"

"No hurries?"

Lu Huaizhen held the white jade porcelain bowl with his slender white fingers and glanced at him lightly.

His people found out yesterday that Lu Chen took Qi Lian out of the city, presumably to purchase materials. As long as they increased production, these things would be sold outside the capital sooner or later.

As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the servant outside the box came in: "My Lord, the shopkeeper of Wanbaolou said that the Fourth Miss Bai is waiting for you in the store. Please come over."

"That girl is really unpredictable. She came as soon as I started talking to her."

Jiang Tingxiao lazily got up, leaving Lu Huaizhen alone in the teahouse, and walked towards the treasure-hunting building without caring about his relatives.

The shopkeeper saw him and immediately went over to greet him, "Boss, Fourth Miss Bai said she has something urgent to discuss with you, please go up quickly."

Jiang Tingxiao paused as he was stroking the white jade ring, then immediately put away the nonchalant look on his face and quickly went up to the third floor.

"Little girl, what happened?"

"Prince Jiang, do you know Lao Zhang's gambling house?" Bai Youyou asked directly without beating around the bush.

"Of course I know."

Jiang Tingxiao lifted his robe and sat down on the chair opposite her. "Why are you asking this?"

Bai Youyou said nothing and placed the IOU signed by Bai Luochuan on the table.

Jiang Tingxiao took it and looked at it, his brows immediately frowned and his expression became serious.

"One hundred thousand taels?!"

He put the IOU back on the table and said, "Your second brother doesn't seem like a gambler, so how could he owe so much gambling debt?"

The annual military pay for a 300,000-strong army on the frontier is only over 2 million taels. These 100,000 taels of silver are enough for the 300,000-strong army's food and fodder for three months.

"It was a trap."

Bai Youyou sighed with a sad look on her face.

If it was one thousand or ten thousand taels, she could find a way to fill the hole for him, but one hundred thousand taels, let alone the Lu family, even the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion could not come up with it.

The current Marquis Yongning is not the old lady's biological son, so it is absolutely impossible for him to sell off his property to help Bai Luochuan solve this problem. I'm afraid they will use this incident as an excuse to split up the family immediately.

"The person behind Lao Zhang's gambling house is the prince. This matter is a bit tricky."

Jiang Tingxiao also knew about Lao Zhang's gambling house. There was not only one on North Street, but also one in the west, east and south of the city. It was nominally owned by the Marquis of Yong'an, but in fact the boss behind it was the prince.

"However, all gambling houses have their own rules. For princes and nobles, the maximum amount of silver they can borrow is no more than 10,000 taels. Your second brother was able to borrow 100,000 taels from Lao Zhang's gambling house. This must be a bit complicated."

"You mean, the prince was involved in this?"

When Bai Youyou heard from Qiao Bing that the boss behind Lao Zhang's gambling house was the prince, she began to have some vague guesses.

Bai Luochuan is not only the young master of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, but also the grandson of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion. Those people knew his identity and yet dared to plot against him in this way. It is impossible that they just relied on the power of the prince.

The prince has always wanted to make friends with people from the Zhenguo Mansion—

She was suddenly startled!
