The sound of messy footsteps came from outside the house, mixed with the whispers of the maids and servants, causing Prince An's Palace to awaken from its slumber.
Madam Wang had just returned to the manor yesterday, and he had already snatched over power from the Madam Li.
After she was washed and washed by the maid, she wore a luxurious dress embroidered with gold thread and walked out.
"What are you doing, making such a racket?"
Madam Wang's tone was not strict, but it carried the tone of a questioning question. She had just returned to the manor, and it was time to establish her might.
When the servants heard this, they looked at each other, stammering for a long time without being able to say a word.
"Are they deaf or mute?" Madam Wang thought that these servants did not put him in their eyes, and casually pointed to a servant in front of them, "Tell me, what were you arguing about so early in the morning?"
The maid who was called out by the Madam Wang trembled subconsciously, but carefully went forward, "To return to the Second Madam, there was some problem with the warehouse, Aunt Li sent some people …"
"Yesterday, the Old Mistress had already handed over the warehouse to me to manage. Why is the Madam Li here?"
He touched the key in his sleeve and straightened his back, looking very aggressive. "Come, follow me to see what the Madam Li is doing!"
If she caught the Madam Li in a relationship and was unwilling to let her take charge of the treasury, she would go to the madame's place and cry. She might even be able to fish for a few extra things to do.
The more he walked, the faster his speed became. He was afraid that if he was too late, he would not be able to catch a clue from Madam Li.
The remaining servants looked at each other, trembled as they followed behind Madam Wang, towards the warehouse.
"The Second Madam is here?"
Madam Li heard the wave of aggressive footsteps from far away. She turned around and greeted Madam Wang kindly.
She unhappily looked at Madam Li in front of her, and took out a key from her sleeve at a leisurely pace, and looked at Madam Li with a smile that did not reach her eyes, "Old madam gave me control of the treasury, what are you doing here, Madam Li?"
The Madam Li sent someone to deliver the key yesterday afternoon.
At that time, she had felt that Madam Li was a little foolish, but after all, she was someone who knew how to judge the situation.
But looking at it now, it was nothing more than mediocre.
Madam Li didn't seem to see the ridicule in the eyes of the crowd, she was still smiling, "Early this morning, someone came to report to me that something had happened in the warehouse, so I came to take a look. Since Second Madam is here, let Second Madam handle this matter. "
Her words were watertight, but it made the ugly expression on her face even more gloomy.
If something were to happen in the warehouse, the first thing the servants would do would not be to find her, the person in charge of the warehouse, but rather Madam Li. Didn't that mean that the servants trusted the Madam Li more and didn't care about her, the Second Madam who had just returned to the clan?
Madam Li was slapping her own face!
If not for the fact that she was in front of so many people, she would have really slapped Madam Li hard on the face.
She took a deep breath and walked around Madam Li, until she reached in front of a servant.
"Tell me clearly what happened in the warehouse!"
The servant saw that Madam Wang's expression wasn't good and didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly told him everything from the beginning to the end.
In fact, the matter was quite simple. It was just that the warehouse had been robbed yesterday and a few precious items had been lost.
Madam Wang's face darkened as he listened to the servant finish his sentence, then he asked in a deep voice, "What did you throw, did you register it?"
"Yes, yes. This little one has already checked. The ones that were lost were the Good Fortune Clouds, a Blue Edge treasure sword, and three pairs of gold threaded bracelets."
These things were not ordinary things in an ordinary person's home, but in the Prince An's Palace, they were only things that were covered in dust.
However, since that thing had disappeared, the Madam Wang must naturally be investigated thoroughly. Otherwise, how could he prove his strength, and fight for power from the hands of the Madam Li?
She seemed to have thought of something, her gaze swept across Madam Li's face, "I wonder if Madam Li found any clues?"
Madam Li laughed, "I only just arrived here, and Second Madam already came here, what clues can I find? Furthermore, the old lady told me to give the key to the warehouse to you, so the matter of the warehouse should naturally be left to the Second Madam, so I didn't dare to interfere. "
At this point, he could only say that he did not dare to interfere because he was afraid that he would be punished by the madame if he did not find out.
Madam Wang sneered in his heart, the coldness in his eyes seemed to be about to spill out, "You're right, the madame trusts me, so she let me take care of the warehouse.
"Then I hope that Second Madam can investigate thoroughly as soon as possible, so that the old lady can be at ease."
With that, the Madam Li turned and left with her maidservants.
The Madam Wang behind him had completely turned dark, and the handkerchief in his hand had been twisted into a ball.
"Second Madam, look …"
The servant braced himself and stepped forward, pointing at the storage room.
Madam Wang recovered his senses, gritted his teeth, "Investigate, investigate thoroughly for this wife and find out how those things disappeared without a trace."
Although his Prince An's Palace wasn't as heavy as a soldier's, the guards in the manor were all well-trained.
To steal a few things from the Prince An's Palace without making a sound was not an easy thing to do.
The servant responded with a bitter face.
Ever since he found out that something had been lost in the warehouse, he had brought his men to search carefully. If they could find any clues, they would have found it long ago.
Madam Wang returned to his own courtyard with a heart full of annoyance. He poured himself a few cups of tea, but his heart was still as stifled as ever.
Today was the first day she was in charge of the warehouse, and it just so happened to be stolen. No one would be in a good mood today.
Just as he was feeling annoyed, a servant reported that An Lingge was here.
Madam Wang withdrew the fretful look on his face, and smiled as he walked out of the room.
"Why is Little Ge here?"
An Lingge walked in from the outside with a fitting smile on her face. "Little Ge just went to greet Grandmother, she just happened to pass by Second Aunt's place, so she came over to take a look."
"What's so good about Second Aunt?" "I might as well go and play with your sisters. You youngsters are the most compatible."
"Actually, Little Ge came to gift Second Aunt a gift." An Lingge said, as she immediately took out a small box.
"This item should have been given to Second Aunt and her sisters yesterday, but afterwards …" An Lingge paused for a moment, then passed this matter over, "So Little Ge could only come today to give this thing to Second Aunt."
"Look at you, you don't even have any money on you, and you're still giving me this and that, aren't you afraid of losing all of it?"
