Good luck in pregnancy, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion has a soft waist

After leading Liu Yue into the house, she rejected the suggestion and quickly explained, "This is all a conspiracy set up by the Princess of Chu and the Jin family. We just sent the money last night, and this morning they filed a complaint with the authorities, claiming that the goods were substandard and demanding that Master Han return the full payment..."

Having anticipated this, Shen Muxue responded calmly, "Don't worry, it might be safer and more reliable for Second Brother to stay inside than outside."

Hearing this, Liu Yue was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

To borrow military terminology, "Seizing the initiative often allows you to seize the initiative, while failing to do so leaves you vulnerable. I have a mission I'd like to entrust to you. Are you willing to do it?"

Without hesitation, he said, "If you can save Mr. Han, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

So she ordered, "Take the loan certificate your brother has issued in the underground market and start collecting the debt immediately."

When Liu Yue again questioned the effectiveness of this approach, he simply nodded in the affirmative.

The young woman, with a determined look in her eyes, promised, "Please relax, I'll take care of this matter."

It was not until this moment that Qingyi, who was standing by and watching, finally understood the purpose of the whole plan.

He gave a thumbs-up and exclaimed, "As expected of my Zhuge! They're going to force the enemy into a desperate situation. Then we'll see how they clean up the mess."

However, Shen Muxue herself was not so confident.

She said: "Although we are currently in an advantageous position, there is still a risk of miscalculation. Therefore, the work that needs to be carried out next is particularly critical. We must be cautious in every step."

Upon hearing this, Qingyi immediately clasped her fists and accepted the order: "Understood, please give your instructions."

After saying this, he handed her a bag of silver and whispered a series of specific requests to her.

After listening to this, the latter nodded and left the scene.

At dusk that day, the debt collectors banged gongs and shouted outside the door at the top of their lungs, asking Jin to repay the debt as soon as possible.

After hearing the news, Jin was so scared that she almost fainted.

He hurriedly led Madam Liu to the gate to try to settle the matter.

He shouted at the gathered crowd, "I just borrowed the money so quickly, why are you asking for it back so soon? I never said I didn't want to return it, so why make such a fuss? Go away now, or if the master finds out, don't blame me for not giving you any compensation!"

A gentle but undeniable voice rang out from among those who had already been driven out: "Oh my, when did our door become so lively?"

Because Zhou, who is very favored recently, always has a few people around her who can tell her the truth.

Upon learning that the Jin family was caught up in a financial dispute, he felt the time was ripe.

Without giving the other party any chance to refute, he declared directly to everyone present, "Your Excellency, Madam, has caused so much trouble without considering a solution. Since my husband has always been upright and honest, he will not tolerate any illegal activities. Unless you can clarify the facts and reasonably explain the reasons for the situation, don't expect to get out of this unscathed!"

So, under Zhou's instructions, the servants quickly surrounded everyone.

This move seems to be to protect the reputation of his own daughter-in-law, but in fact it is indirectly pushing the Jin family towards destruction.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the lender quickly took out the loan documents with official seal, signature, name, term, etc.

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is indeed the invoice signed by your mistress herself, and the agreed deadline is three days to settle all payments..."

"If you are unable to repay, you can use the mansion as collateral. This is the title deed to the Prime Minister's residence. If you cannot come up with the payment, we will have the right to confiscate your property!"

Zhou never expected that Jin would dare to do such a risky thing with the property.

Things have developed to this point, and she can no longer decide on her own.

I had no choice but to tell Shen Zhenwu.

After Shen Zhenwu personally verified the authenticity of the land deed, his body staggered and he almost fell down.

He pointed his finger at Jin's nose and shouted angrily, "Kneel down! Tell the truth! Otherwise, I will divorce you immediately!"

Jin tearfully begged for forgiveness, "Master, I was truly pressured by the Princess of Chu. She wanted to start a business, but she didn't have enough liquidity. She asked if I could support her, but what could I do? Although we can't repay the debt right now, we still have a lot of brocade to sell. I'm sure you're aware that the price of this kind of brocade is high in the Kyoto market right now, and selling it would cover the deficit."

After being comforted by Aunt Zhou, Shen Zhenwu finally calmed down a little.

Still sullenly, he questioned, "You are aware that current laws clearly prohibit officials from engaging in lending activities. If exposed, it would undoubtedly damage my personal reputation and prestige."

"My wife has already realized her mistake, please calm down."

Jin immediately obeyed, but still couldn't hide her inner determination. "But now that the matter has been settled, even if you are furious with me, it won't solve the problem. The key is how we deal with this gap."

Shen Zhenwu banged his head on the table and asked, "Then what's your plan?"

"We previously purchased a batch of brocade from the Second Young Master Han, but after an estimate, we discovered that these items were worth far less than a million taels of silver. I suspect this was a deliberate trap set up by him. If we can prove that Young Master Han colluded with others to commit this fraud, we may be able to recover the full amount. Once the truth is revealed, not only will we be able to recover the original amount, but we could also make an additional profit of 500,000 to 600,000 taels."

Hearing the huge number of one million, Shen Zhenwu suddenly felt dizzy.

"Why do we conclude that this was a deliberate scam rather than a simple trading error? Perhaps it was simply due to our lack of business acumen."

Jin confidently retorted, "That's impossible. On the day of the transaction, someone claiming to be an intermediary suddenly interrupted and offered to buy the goods for an extra 100 gold. Unless someone was behind this, it would be such a coincidence."

Seeing her resolute and confident attitude, Shen Zhenwu felt a little relieved. He waved his sleeve and ordered, "You must resolve this matter quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Then he turned to Zhou and said, "Help me in to rest."

Aunt Zhou quickly took her husband's arm and left together. The backs of the two looked very warm.

Witnessing this scene, Jin suddenly felt jealous.

"Who is the real mistress of this mansion?"

Zhou seems to be quite capable.

Filled with resentment, Jin stared at the direction they disappeared and swore silently.

After the external affairs have settled down, we must take revenge on this master and servant.

He then begged the lender to extend the deadline for one day for the Prime Minister's sake, and the other party finally agreed to make concessions.

Then she rushed to the Duke's Mansion to find Princess Chu and ask for help.

Seeing the other party coming hurriedly, Shen Muxue's mouth corners slightly raised.

The dog got anxious and started running around.

Qingyi quietly returned at this moment and reported the latest situation to him: "All plans are ready."

Hearing this, the woman slowly twirled the ruby ​​bracelet on her wrist, her whole body exuding a calm and composed temperament, like a commander-in-chief planning a strategy.
