Chapter 2359

Ruan Tanggang's fever subsided and his condition has not completely stabilized. After drinking the medicine, he walked a few steps and was stuffed into bed again.

No one said what happened to the Duke of Wei last night, and Ruan Tang didn't ask.

After a few days of honest maintenance, she was finally not so weak. She could get out of bed and move in the yard. Ruan Yun told her what happened.

Duke Wei got a letter from his family back to the government house. He only heard that Ruan Tang's sister and brother were making trouble in the government house. Even the old prince was angry and fainted. He was furious and wanted to educate these two ungrateful and unscrupulous children for his dead sister and brother-in-law.

On the way back to the mansion, I heard a passer-by say that the people of Prince Ruiqin's mansion had just come out of the government house and seemed to have left in a carriage.

Wei Guo had a sense of crisis at the moment.

The rest of the family didn't know the relationship between the Ruan family and Prince Rui's house, but he knew how good the relationship between Prince Rui and the princess and their sister-in-law was and how much they liked Ruan Tang's daughter.

Once the people of Prince Ruiqin's house intervene, the problem will be serious.

When he came in, he didn't even see the old prince and Mrs. Xiao, so he was stopped by Prince Rui's personal bodyguard, and then Prince Rui again.

Song Jinxiu and song Jinyue have made it clear that they murdered Ruan Tang. If Duke Wei disagrees and says like others that there is insufficient evidence to convict, well, go to court directly.

Although Duke Wei is weak and incompetent, he loves face most.

He won't go this way unless he has to.

Besides, who doesn't know what's going on in Dali temple? The people there are sharp like judges. If song Jinxiu and song Jinyue are handed over to Dali temple for trial, I'm afraid not only Ruan Tang's case will be investigated, but also other matters of the government will be exposed.

Duke Wei quickly apologized to Prince Rui and told him not to start a fire. Speak slowly and don't get angry.

Prince Rui asked people to present all the evidence and bills, and then said solemnly, "I'm talking about how the government didn't pay back the three million liang of silver owed to the Treasury, and when the Duke of Wei didn't want to pay it back, he wanted to default. It turned out that the government couldn't make ends meet, and even his niece's dowry moved!"

The Duke of Wei's face was white, green and red.

The Duke of Wei is not the only one who owes money to the national treasury. Everyone doesn't pay it back. Why should he pay it back?

This was the default thing. No one mentioned it. Even now he was embarrassed to speak, so everyone regarded it as nothing. But Prince Rui mentioned it himself, and he couldn't pretend to be confused.

Otherwise he would not admit it. Prince Rui turned back and ran to the palace to complain, saying that he wanted to default and take the silver from the national treasury as his own, so the emperor could have an excuse to punish him!

Duke Wei was thinking about countermeasures, and Prince Rui gave him another charge.

Using the dowry of my niece is not to occupy the Ruan family's property? Where is the reputation of the Duke of the state of Wei when this word comes out?

He looked at Prince Rui, who was calm and relaxed to drink tea, and the little princess who was obviously mocking while watching the excitement. He could only fight his swollen face and be fat.

"The Lord misunderstood. How can I not pay back the silver owed to the Treasury? I'm really tight in the house. I'll pay it back when I ease up!" then he began to defend himself. "I'm not easy to ask about girl Tang. It's all the lady's business. The woman's family has a narrow vision and has done something wrong. I'll teach her a good lesson!"

Prince Rui didn't care about the second half of the sentence. He just said with a little excitement: "Oh? So the Duke of Wei is going to pay back the money? That's right. The imperial brother invited the king and the 17th to eat with him in the palace. At that time, the king will convey the meaning of the Duke of Wei to the imperial brother and publicize your loyalty and patriotism!"
