Return Ten Times As Much [9]

“I'd love to,” Luo Luo said with a smile. Luo Luo, who had always been opposing Princess Ying Ye, had never been so obedient.

Looking at them, there was no need to even guess. It was obvious that these two people had already been agreed upon everything while they were outside. That was why they came together.

They were afraid that a little twelve-year-old girl would be bullied and wouldn't be able to handle such a big matter. Huang Bei Yue was touched by their sincere and kind intentions.

Ignoring everyone's reaction, Princess Ying Ye sent someone to get the command tally from Geng Zhong to give it to the Bu Ji Er family, telling them to check the bank accounts of concubines and young masters for money laundering.

Concubine Qin's vision blurred. Her head felt incredibly dizzy. She couldn't stand still and fell into Xiao Zhong Qi's arms.

When Princess Ying Ye saw this, she had Wu Shuang move a chair over for Concubine Qin to sit on.

In the following period of time, the princess didn't say much. She only let Wu Huan take out the snacks she brought from the palace, placing them in front of everyone.

“Everyone, please have some snacks. It will take some time to check the bank accounts.”

Huang Bei Yue didn't act too formal. In any case, she was just waiting to see a show. Her heart felt at ease as she ate quite a few pieces of dessert.

Not long after, the people sent by Princess Ying Ye came back to report. Wu Shuang went out to listen, then walked in, and whispered a few words into Princess Ying Ye's ear.

“Pa–”

The teacup in Princess Ying Ye's hand suddenly smashed to the ground. She shouted, “Someone come and grab those two lowly women. Drag them out and flog them to death!”

“Your Highness, please have mercy!” Concubine Qin who was sitting on the stool, immediately collapsed to the ground, kneeling down and begging for forgiveness.

Concubine Xue also knelt down in panic, begging for mercy.

Princess Ying Ye's phoenix-like eyes swept across, and said with a cold smile, “Have mercy? Do you think you're worthy enough to ask me for mercy? When you were greedily trying to launder money, you should've already known that once this matter has come to light, you'll die! Drag them away!”

Princess Ying Ye was the most powerful princess apart from the emperor's little sister, Princess Xi He. Princess Ying Ye is born from the current empress and is most favored by the emperor.

At her display of might, the entire residence was trembling with fear. The few black cavalries left behind by the crown prince from last night immediately came in, dragging both Concubine Qin and Concubine Xue out.

Xiao Yuan Cheng was so scared that his entire body went limp and he didn't dare to say a single word.

“Princess, please spare my mother!” Xiao Yun knelt down and tightly hugged Concubine Xue's waist, not allowing the black cavalry soldiers to drag her out.

“Your Highness, please show mercy!”

Xiao Zhong Qi also knelt down. As a man, of course, he wouldn't cry, but from his strong voice, one could hear quite a bit of fear.

Xiao Rou, Xiao Zhong Lei, and the others also knelt down to plead on behalf of their mother.

The rest of the children were all hiding in their mother's arms, not daring to speak. With such a heavy atmosphere, anyone who said a single word would die!

Only Xiao Ling felt that it was fortunate that her mother was a blockhead and wouldn't do anything greedy. Otherwise, she would be the one begging in fear today!

Hearing that more and more people pleading, Princess Ying Ye's face became colder and uglier.

“Who is your mother? The only one in charge of this residence is my imperial aunt, Princess Zhang! She is your mother! These concubines are only lowly servants. Good! It turns out that after so many years, there are actually no more rules in Princess Zhang's residence. Even the emperor's brother-in-law doesn't care anymore!”

Xiao Yuan Cheng's expression was as ugly as a dead person, his lips trembled a few times. He couldn't do as he did before, using his identity as Huang Bei Yue's father to discipline Huang Bei Yue. This is because the person in front of him is Princess Ying Ye!

T/N: In ancient imperial China, only the official wife would be considered as the mother. All the children born from concubines can't call their actual mother, ‘mother'. They would have to call the official wife, ‘mother'. Even though Princess Zhang is dead, she still holds the position as the official wife. Hence, Princess Ying Ye was angry because Xiao Yun called Concubine Xue her mother.
