2373. Chapter 2373 Dressed as a cousin who was eaten and died (21)
Ruan Tang had just subsided his fever and had not yet stabilized his condition. He took the medicine and walked a few steps, and was stuffed on the bed and lying down.
No one said what happened to the Duke of Wei’s mansion last night, and Ruan Tang didn’t ask.
After taking care of her body for a few days, she finally stopped being so weak and could get out of bed and go to the yard to move. Only then did Ruan Yun tell her that she had passed.
Duke Wei received a message from his family and returned home. He only heard Ruan Tang's brothers causing trouble in the Duke's house. Even the old lady was so angry that she was furious and wanted to educate his dead sister and brother-in-law about these two ungrateful and ungrateful children.
On the way back to the mansion, I heard a passerby saying that the people from Prince Rui’s mansion had just come out of the Duke’s mansion and seemed to have left in a carriage.
Duke Wei immediately felt a sense of crisis.
Others in the family were not clear about the relationship between the Ruan family and Prince Rui's mansion, but he knew how good Prince Rui and the princess had, and how much they liked Ruan Tang, the daughter.
Once the people from Prince Rui’s mansion intervene, the problem will be serious.
When he entered the door, he didn't even see the old lady and Mrs. Xiao, and was stopped by Prince Rui's personal bodyguard, and then Prince Rui was again.
It is already clear that Song Jinxiu and Song Jinyue were conspiring to murder Ruan Tang's life. If Duke Wei disagreed and said that there was insufficient evidence like others, then it was OK to go directly to court.
Although Duke Wei is a cowardly and incompetent person, he also loves face the most.
He would not have taken this path unless he had no choice.
Besides, who doesn’t know what the situation in Dali Temple is? Everyone there is sharp like a judge. If Song Jinxiu and Song Jinyue are handed over to Dali Temple for trial, it is probably not only Ruan Tang’s case that will be found out, but even other matters in the Duke’s Mansion will be exposed.
Duke Wei quickly apologized to Prince Rui, telling him not to get angry, and to say something slowly, and never get angry.
Prince Rui asked someone to offer all the evidence and bills, and then said seriously: "I think the Duke's Mansion did not repay the three million taels of silver that he owed the treasury, and he still acted as Duke Wei and refused to pay it back. It turned out that the mansion was already unable to make ends meet, and even his niece's dowry was moved!"
This made Duke Wei's face turn white, blue and red.
Not only the Duke of Wei’s mansion owes the treasury, but no one pays it back. Why should he pay it back?
This was the default thing, no one mentioned it. Even now, I was embarrassed to speak, so everyone thought it was nothing. But Prince Rui mentioned it himself, so he couldn't pretend to be confused.
Otherwise, he would not admit it any more. Prince Rui turned around and ran to the palace to complain, saying that he wanted to rely on the debt and take the treasury's silver for himself, so that the emperor would have an excuse to give him a loss!
Duke Wei was thinking of a countermeasure, and Prince Rui gave him another charge.
Isn’t using my niece’s dowry to occupy the Ruan family’s property? Where can I still have a reputation when I heard this when the Duke of Wei’s Mansion?
He looked at Prince Rui who was calm and leisurely drinking tea and the little prince who was obviously mocking him while watching the fun, and could only make him swollen and pretend to be fat.
"The prince misunderstood. How can I not pay back the money I owe to the treasury? I am really in a tight situation in my house. I will pay it back when it eases a little!" After saying that, he began to defend himself, "It's hard for me to ask about Tang Yatou. It's all the wife who is doing it. The woman has a narrow vision. If she does the wrong thing, I will definitely teach her a lesson!"
