Chapter 852: We are wrongfully accused



The valuables taken away by the housekeeper were all in her other mansion. If the matter was exposed then even if Su Yiqian jumped into the Yellow River she would not be able to save her reputation today!

Thus, Su Yiqian immediately rushed to the manor where the troublemakers were living at the moment.

As soon as she arrived at the manor, she saw the housekeeper pleading for mercy while he told Su Bai off but the latter was not willing to back down either.

He pointed to the housekeeper and then said angrily, " My lord we only came to the capital just three months ago, we are not even settled here properly. Everyone in the neighbourhood saw us leaving and coming back to the house without bringing any extra luggage."

" Our heart is clear as the blue sky. Do you really believe this housekeeper\'s words? We used a million taels? If we were the ones who were responsible for this theft do you think that we would have brought you here officers?"

He wiped his face with both of his hands and then said with an aggrieved voice, " I .. I am just a common man. I don\'t have many schemes or plans in my head. I just think it\'s too much that a servant is stealing from his master. I am afraid that Imperial Concubine Su will be troubled if the jade vases that were given to her by the Emperor are gone."

" I wouldn\'t have said a word if it was gold taels as we already noticed the gold and silver taels missing but the housekeeper has gone too far, even stole a gift of a husband for his wife? And who is Imperial Concubine Su\'s husband? He is the Emperor of the imperial city."

The housekeeper, on the other hand, became flustered. He only did what his master asked him to do, he never touched a single tael. How come he was suddenly facing charges? He turned to look at the officers and then cried honestly, " Officers, this man is lying! I did not do anything like this! I swear, the money was not touched by me."

" Then what do you mean by these records?" Su Bai questioned. He took the tally from Su Yu Cheng and counted, " You wrote a bunch of nonsense on it. Silk clothes? Rag from the skin of deer and tiger fur boots? Pearl and gold headdress? We have purchased nothing of the sort!

In fact the meal we had for the last few weeks only comprised of stir-fried bok choy and nothing else! So where did this meat from the boar and deer go? In your belly?"

Su Bai did not give a chance to the housekeeper to say something. He turned to look at the officer and said, " My lord, you can check our rooms if you want. We haven\'t purchased a single thing that is written on this tally. We are honest people but that does not mean we will allow anyone to frame us for their greed silently!"

" Thats right! My teacher said that it\'s a sin to suffer in silence!" Su Yu Cheng chimed in between causing the Housekeeper to glare at him.

The investigation officer turned to look at his subordinates and nodded. If there was any sort of purchase as mentioned in the tally then they would find some clues.

While his subordinates went to look for clues, the head officer looked at the tally and pursed his lips before saying, " Such an account is impossible to happen. How could such big purchases be made? It\'s like someone deliberately poured money out of the house."

" A few months ago Imperial Concubine Su performed a water dance in front of his majesty and she was rewarded with two hundred thousand gold taels. How could those taels just vanish in thin air? Even if you bought an antique, it would not cost so much money so how can silk clothes and silver headdresses waste so much money?"

" I have to say you are really bold as a servant! To think you actually dared to move the reward of concubine given to her by his majesty, himself!"

The housekeeper was stunned. He did not know what to do anymore, he was ordered by Xiao Yue to put those things in the rooms of these troublemakers in a few days but now was not the time and those things were still inside his room. If the officers searched his room which they certainly would, wouldn\'t he be taken away?

When Su Bai heard that Su Yiqian actually had more than two hundred thousand gold taels and was refusing to hand him even a thousand silver taels, he was so furious that he wished to rush up and beat that woman.

He cursed his daughter in his heart completely forgetting that Su Yiqian learned everything from him. In the past, he used the money left in the dowry of Shen Shui and did not give Su Yiqian a single cent.

Su Bai did not remember anything all he knew was that Su Yiqian was an unfilial daughter who did not care about her old father. She was really a beast, she actually hid so much money away from them. Forget about a hundred thousand, he did not even see a hundred gold taels in the storehouse everything was moved before he could even get his hands on it!

Though he was furious in his heart, on the surface he smiled and thanked the officers, " Thank you for helping us out, my lord. If you did not help me, who knows maybe I and my family would have been wrongfully accused by the servants of this manor who stomped on the head of their master and wronged the commoners."
