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

Chapter 379: You should know that killing someone means paying with your life.

Xiaoju was completely confused, but she followed Bai Youyou to Lu Chen's yard, and after listening, she suddenly understood.

Lu Chen was also worried about Yun Nifang's affairs at first, but after listening to Bai Youyou's words, he suddenly became enlightened.

"You mean to use the silver to buy all the soapberries in the prince's hands?"

"Ah."

Bai Youyou nodded, "Our costs are more than this price. Since he wants to use the price advantage to drain us, why don't we just buy his products directly."

She curled her lips and sneered, "I want to see how much money the prince can put into this!"

"But do we have enough silver?"

Lu Chen was still a little worried.

The prince has many properties under his name, and if they really want to spend them, they simply cannot afford it.

"Don't worry about the money. I'll find a way."

Bai Youyou handed him the box in her hand and said, "Here is 150,000 taels. Send someone to buy soap nuts from the Zhen Ni Fangs."

Lu Chen was a little shocked when he took the box.

How long has it been...

Bai Youyou warned: "Be careful about this matter, and don't let the prince's people know about it for the time being."

If they knew, they would definitely think of other ways to deal with her Yun Nifang.

"Well, I know."

Lu Chen took the silver and hurried out. Bai Youyou had some free time and was just about to go to Baozhu Tower to find Qi Lian when the housekeeper came quickly with a letter.

"Young lady, a beggar just brought this letter to you, saying it's for you."

Bai Youyou took the envelope with some doubts, and after opening it, her pupils suddenly shrank.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, the housekeeper couldn't help but ask, "Young lady, what happened?"

"fine."

Bai Youyou folded the letter and put it in his sleeve, then told Xiaoju: "Have someone prepare the carriage, I need to go out for a while."

Xiaoju obediently asked someone to harness the carriage, but she was very surprised when the carriage stopped in front of the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

"Miss, why are we here in this unlucky place?"

"There's something I need to take care of."

Bai Youyou got off the carriage, and the concierge was surprised to see her, "Fourth Miss, you are back home."

Bai Youyou is not only the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo now, but more importantly, she is the owner of Yunnifang. The doorman dare not be negligent in the slightest.

"No need to lead the way, I'll go find your old lady."

Bai Youyou stepped into the room, and the doorman immediately went to tell Li and Bai Qingyu about the matter.

Li looked at Bai Qingyu who was drinking medicine, her eyes full of doubt, "He never came when we sent people to invite him in the past, but today he came uninvited?"

"If something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. Send someone to find out why she is looking for Old Qiao."

Bai Qingyu had caught a cold these days, and his face was sallow. He put the empty medicine bowl on the table, speaking weakly.

Li looked at his face, which looked like he was in a critical condition, and her face was full of worry. "After you finish taking the medicine, go lie down and rest."

Bai Qingyu waved his hand, "It doesn't matter whether you take a break or not, your body is getting worse and worse."

"It's all because of that old bitch Qiao. If she hadn't harmed you, how could you be like this!"

Li was patted on the back by Bai Qingyu. Thinking of this incident, she wished she could go to Songtaoyuan right now and kill that old hag Qiao.

"Right now, Zhen Ni Fang still has to rely on the second brother, so let's not talk about the past for now."

Speaking of Zhennifang, Li's expression became more serious. "It is said that Yunnifang makes a fortune every day, but I took a look at the account of the shop, and some of them are not as profitable as the previous business."

In order to open Zhen Ni Fang, she sold all her dowry and also took some of Zhong Gong's money, but she did not make as much money as she expected.

"In the past, Yunnifang was the only one in the market, but now there are shops selling soap nuts everywhere. The competition is fierce, so naturally the profits are less."

Bai Qingyu also felt a little regretful.

At first, I didn't expect that the prince was not like Bai Youyou, who only had one store in each county. Now Zhen Nifang is opening one after another like mushrooms after a rain, and some even have four or five stores in one street.

But this huge sum of money has already been invested, and if you want to change your career, you will suffer a huge loss.

"Why doesn't this second brother have the brains of Youyou? If he only opened one store in one place like Youyou's Yun Ni Fang, wouldn't we all make money?"

"Let's not talk about this for now," Bai Qingyu pushed her hand away, "Hurry up and send someone to Songtao Garden to find out what Youyou wants to do with Old Qiao."

"Why send someone? I'll go myself."

Li was also curious about what Bai Youyou wanted to do with Old Qiao. After settling Bai Qingyu, she took Qian Momo to Songtaoyuan.

"Madam, our old lady has ordered that no one can enter."

Before Li even entered the courtyard, she was blocked by two servants. She asked in a cold voice, "Even I can't enter?"

The servants looked at each other, still hunching their necks and lowering their heads, "The old lady has ordered, please don't embarrass me."

They were blocking the door and not letting in, which made Li even more curious, but she couldn't get in, so she had to take the money and wait in a corner.

In Songtao Garden, old Mrs. Qiao turned the sandalwood bracelet in her hand, her eyes fixed on Bai Youyou's fair and delicate face.

"Grandma, why do you think I am like this?" Bai Youyou put down the teacup in her hand, her face calm, "If you have something to say, just say it."

"You are such a brave girl, you dare to kill someone!"

Bai Youyou raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Grandma, you're joking. I can't carry it on my shoulders or lift it with my hands. How can a weak lady like me kill someone?"

Old Mrs. Qiao glanced at her calmly and pushed two pieces of paper in front of her. "This is the confession of Li Ergou and others. They saw with their own eyes that you and Qiao Bing teamed up to kill Li Xiucai's father."

Bai Youyou took the confession and read it carefully, her pupils narrowed slightly.

I don't know how someone saw that scene at that time.

This is the fact, but that man deserved to die, and now his body is gone. Should she be cautious based on just a few confessions?

Bai Youyou smiled. She didn't say whether the testimony was true or false. She just looked up at her and asked, "Grandma, what do you want to do?"

Old Qiao said quietly, "You should know that if you kill someone, you must pay with your life."

"Killing someone means paying with one's life. This is only natural." Bai Youyou nodded seriously. "A prince who breaks the law is subject to the same punishment as a commoner. The same applies to me, the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhenguo."

She repeated what Old Mrs. Qiao had said, but it made Old Mrs. Qiao choke.

After a moment, she said, "I know that this was all done by Qiao Bing. You were just confused for a moment. Not many people know about this. You are my grandmother's granddaughter. The law is not beyond human nature. I will definitely keep it a secret for you."

Bai Youyou curled his lips and sneered, "Why do you want to hide it?"
