Chapter 253 259. Pingyang Marquis Mansion 07
Yun Tutu had already guessed what the Marquis was going to do next.

"Your servant greets the Madam!" Several maids came to the gate with some servant girls and saluted respectfully.

Zhang Yang didn't know what words to use to describe it. Was this treating the entrance to the mansion as a stage or a torture chamber?

When it comes to having fun, it has to be the ancients, who had so many tricks.

Especially at this time, there are no entertainment activities and everyone is in high spirits.

Even Zhang Yaowen, who was usually steady, started to eat melon seeds more slowly and stared intently ahead.

The live version of the house-fighting drama is really eye-opening.

Lin Xi looked at the servants coldly, "Didn't I ask you to sort out the accounts again and take inventory of the old things I brought in? Why did you empty out the rooms of all the gentlemen and ladies?

Do you know what this is? This is a slave bullying his master!"

Having said this, Lin Xi glanced coldly at Liu Changqing and the others. Although these concubines' children were also considered the masters of the mansion, their concubines were half slaves. In the past, she didn't want these people to cause trouble to her, so she just let them be.

It seems that some people have had enough of the good times and it's time to give them a warning.

She didn't think of killing these people with a stick, because that would require replacing them with a new group of people, and she would also have to remember their faces, which was too lazy to do.

"Madam, I am innocent. Even if I had the courage, I would not dare to do this."

The old maids who were in the lead bowed their heads to the ground, and each of them cried out for injustice.

"Then why don't you tell me what happened? Why did you empty all the courtyards?"

Liu Changqing and the others all looked anxious and looked into the house frequently. Why hadn't their father come yet?
If the stepmother continues talking, they will really lose all their dignity.

"Madam, you really wronged me. We really only counted your dowry. We did not touch anything in the mansion.

But we don’t know why the things in the warehouse are placed in the courtyards of various young masters and young ladies.”

Once these words were spoken, they were confirmed, and the crowd watching around was in an uproar.

The Pingyang Marquis' Mansion is really a mess. The mistress of the house is still alive and well, but they are just dividing up other people's dowries.

Now that they want their things back, they are still making a fuss here. If these people hadn't been so stupid today and exposed the matter, the Marquis's wife would have no idea how aggrieved she would be.

However, there were also some smart people who exchanged glances and did not stand up to provoke.

Using a woman's dowry is despicable in itself, and they will never speak for such a person.

Yuntutu, "Although some ancient laws were very strict, I think this is quite good. At least women's most basic rights are protected."

Zhang Yang, “If you really want to scheme, there are many ways.

But some people are more clever and can hide their intentions. If the Marquis of Pingyang was not in the mansion today, the Marquis’ wife would not dare to make such a plan. "

"The right time, right place and right people are all here. Madam Hou is really smart." Zhang Yaowen also praised her.

Seeing that Liu Changqing and the others had pale faces, Yun Tutu and the others shook their heads. They were already backward from birth, but they had no self-awareness. The ending was already determined.

"Mother, we don't know," Liu Changqing and the others could only say dryly, "If you knew this was your dowry, we would definitely not dare to accept it."

"I was also wondering why my dowry was placed in your room?" Lin Xi pressed his forehead lightly, looking very distressed, "Let's check if the people below did something wrong and confused the warehouse in the mansion with my warehouse." "Madam, these are all the instructions of the Marquis," the accountant knelt down hurriedly at this time, "No matter how brave I am, I dare not easily touch your dowry."

The accountant was a close confidant of the Marquis' Mansion. Lin Xi had to treat him with some courtesy when she met him before, but the other party did not take her, the lady, seriously either.

But this time the matter was too big and his small account office could not handle it at all.

The Marquis hasn't shown up yet, so he can only use the Marquis's title and hope that the Marquis's wife won't keep dwelling on this matter. This is actually a veiled threat.

Lin Xi clenched her fists and looked at the carriage galloping from a distance, and said with a smile, "Since it is the Marquis' order, this lady has no reason to blame you.

The Marquis is the head of the Pingyang Marquisate, so it is understandable that he uses my dowry. "

He finally forced out these words, but even if Liu Fengning ran as fast as he could, it was too late.

Liu Fengning came here in a carriage with the chief eunuch, but he did not meet Yun Tutu and the others along the way. He cursed Lin Xi in his heart.

As the wife of the Marquis, don't you know the importance of this matter? Shouldn't you bring the person to the palace gate in advance and wait for the summons?
He seemed like a smart guy before, why did he act so stupid this time?

When he was about to arrive, he found that his house was surrounded by three layers of enemies.

"What are you doing?" The chief eunuch, Eunuch Li, lifted the curtain and frowned as he looked at the scene. "Lord Liu, is there anything important happening in the mansion today?"

Liu Fengning was also confused and shook his head and said, "I was fine before I left. Could something have happened?"

But now was not the time to dwell on these things. He had to bring the people into the palace quickly, so he lifted the curtain and started to scold, "What's going on? Why are you blocking the palace? Evacuate the people quickly."

When the guards heard this, they hurried over and drove the crowd away.

When they saw the owner of the Marquis' Mansion coming back, everyone started pointing and talking.

Eunuch Li raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Fengning. It seemed that something had happened in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.

Now I hope that the other party will not delay Your Majesty’s important affairs, otherwise this Pingyang Marquis will really be in trouble.

Fortunately, the guards were powerful and cleared a path in no time. The pointing and talking around him made Liu Fengning's face darken.

Even if he didn't hear everything clearly, he seemed to vaguely hear that these people were accusing him of greedily taking his wife's dowry and dividing the wife's dowry among his illegitimate sons and daughters.

"You said that even the concubines' children were given some, so did the concubines get some as well?"

"I didn't expect the Marquis of Pingyang to be such a person. Isn't this favoring his concubine over his wife?"

"Why is this impossible? These officials are all hypocritical, saying one thing on the surface but doing another in secret."

"The Marquis' wife is really pitiful. She entered the Marquis' Mansion with a generous dowry, which means she is expected to support the entire Marquis' Mansion by herself."

"What is this? Look at these concubines' children. They dared to stop in front of Madam Lin's carriage and accuse her of all kinds. How can they respect their mother?

This Marquis really doesn't know how to teach his children, he has no respect for elders or juniors at all."

"Do I need these? I have a title and an official position, but the wife of the Marquis is just a merchant. Even if she suffers a great injustice, she can only bear it."

"If these bastards hadn't been so stupid and made a big fuss about this, we would still be kept in the dark."
