Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 359

At this time, Bai Lu also came back.

"Miss, I've found out everything. Li Jiao is indeed Li Fu's daughter. Moreover, she was able to marry the county magistrate of Rongcheng because of Li Fu's matchmaking." Bai Lu also didn't quite understand Li Fu's train of thought.

After all, the county magistrate Xiang Tianyi was almost the same age as Li Fu, and he already had eighteen concubines.

Even though Li Jiao was a concubine's daughter, she was still his biological daughter. Yet, for the sake of power, he was willing to let his daughter be his concubine.

"He is indeed a cunning fox." Although Qiao Anan looked down on Li Fu's behavior, she had to admit that this was the norm these days.

Li Fu is not the first and will not be the last.

"Miss, I also found out that the county magistrate would go to Deyue Tower for meals every once in a while, and every time, he was personally entertained by Li Fu." Bai Lu said again.

Qiao Anan frowned.

"I'm afraid that the county magistrate has some people in the capital? Otherwise, it is impossible that every time Nanqi arrives in Rongcheng, they have received the news and made preparations in advance. Nanqi, is the time for your inspection always fixed?" Qiao Anan asked with a frown.

"Every time, I come here at a fixed time." Nanqi is also very busy on weekdays. The areas they are responsible for are not in the same place, and they have to run back and forth, so they inspect various places regularly in February and March every year.

"That's the problem." Qiao Anan sighed and said, those people have bad intentions and will even find out where these people are going.

"Nanqi, you should also investigate the people around you." Qiao Anan said again. Those people had such accurate information, so there must be someone who tipped them off.

"Yes!" Nanqi thought of this and his face darkened. If he was caught betraying his own people, he would definitely not let him off.

"Miss, I found out that Li Fu and Zhang Cheng have wealthy families in Rongcheng. I think they took the Deyue Tower and the money brought by the guests for themselves. And..." Bai Lu didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, I saw the waiter leading a lady dressed in rich clothes over.

Bai Lu sighed inwardly. Before she could finish her words, this person came.

Looking at Bai Lu's expression, Qiao Anan guessed that there was something fishy going on.

"Hello, ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you. This lady used to live in this room. She said that she left something important here. Could you please be flexible and let her look for it?" the waiter said respectfully.

"Waiter, didn't you clean the room before we checked in?" Qiao Anan asked with a frown.

"Of course there is." The waiter was no longer surprised by this kind of question.

"Sister, I'm really sorry. That thing is not very valuable, but it is a relic left to me by my mother, so I carry it with me. It's all my fault that I was confused in my daily life and didn't even know I dropped it." The woman said pleadingly.

"I didn't find anything after I checked in. If you lost something, then report it to the police and let the government search." Qiao Anan thought to herself that it was a good opportunity for her to try and see how Xiang Tianyi handled the matter.

Qingfeng wanted to go out to find the county magistrate, but was stopped by Qiao Anan.

"Qingfeng, we'll wait here."

"Sister, I'm just looking for someone's jade pendant. Why do you have to alert the authorities?" The woman didn't expect that this man today would be so stubborn.

"How should I know, did you really lose the jade pendant, or do you want to find something from me? I still say the same thing, you can search the room and ask the authorities to search it, but I guess no guests have the right to search our room without their permission, right?" Qiao Anan looked at the waiter and asked.

"Madam, that's not what we meant. However, you see, she's in a hurry. Could you please be flexible? Don't worry, we will restore everything in the house to its original state. We won't destroy anything of yours." The waiter said as if he was speaking for the wealthy lady.

"My young lady has already said that if you want to look for something in our house, you can ask the government to come." Bai Lu stopped in front of Qiao Anan and said.

Bai Lu looked at the two of them with disdain. Whenever there were guests coming, they would take advantage of the new guests and cheat them.

If the lady lets them in later, they will definitely put something in there on purpose and say that they damaged it.

Then you have to pay compensation.

Thinking of this, Bai Lu looked at the waiter and the so-called noble lady with even more ill intentions.

"Madam, why are you so aggressive?" the woman said with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Is not letting you search my house considered aggressive? Officials need to produce documents when searching people's homes? You are not an official and you don't have any documents, so why should I cooperate with you? Besides, when I checked into this house, all the things that needed to be replaced in the inn had been replaced. If you want to find something, you should go to the shopkeeper here and ask for it. If they see it, they will definitely keep it for you." Qiao Anan said calmly.

At this moment, she was also a little confused. Did this person really lose something, or was he trying to do something weird? However, looking at Bai Lu's expression, she knew there must be something she didn't know. Thinking of Bai Lu's hesitant look just now, she wondered if he was planning to blackmail someone?

That's really exciting.

Thinking of this, Qiao Anan also became angry. The Qiao family's century-old reputation was lost in half here.

What’s even funnier is that in Rongcheng, it is said that there is no Qiao family.

It is true that there is no Qiao family in Rongcheng, but the Deyue Tower and Youkelai in Rongcheng are not owned by the Li family and the Zhang family.

"Madam, I really don't mean anything else. I just want to find my lost jade pendant. Please." The woman knelt in front of Qiao Anan after she said that.

I thought to myself, I'm already kneeling down, let's see if you will let me in.

"Then just kneel down." Qiao Anan was not soft-hearted.

"Madam, please be kind. This lady is older than you. Aren't you afraid of shortening her life when she kneels in front of you?" The waiter rolled his eyes and advised.

"Even if your county magistrate kneels in front of my young lady, she can bear it." Bai Lu looked at the woman below and laughed coldly.

A woman from Rong County, whose daughter is the consort of the Second Prince, how could she not be able to withstand her kneeling?

"Madam, please don't say such nonsense. Although this lady is not the county magistrate's wife, she has some relationship with him." The waiter said quickly.

"Oh? The relatives of the county magistrate also want to stay in the inn? Why don't they stay at the county government office?" Bai Zhi on the side said with some confusion.

"Madam, you don't want me to search. Do you want to take my jade pendant for yourself?" The woman thought of using force when she saw that soft tactics didn't work.
