The person who came was none other than Lin Junrong. He walked into the main hall with his hands folded.

He clasped his fists and said, "Master Hou, I heard that someone was bullying Shi Yu, so I came here in a hurry. Please forgive me for coming uninvited."

"Your Highness Prince Li, why did such a trivial matter alarm you?" Mu Chenghe did not expect that Lin Junrong would actually protect Mu Shiyu like this.

"Master Hou, this is too late. Shi Yu's affairs are never trivial to me." Seeing such pampering, Mu Shihua on the side was almost jealous to death.

Although Lin Junchen loves her dearly, she has been begging for the position of concubine, but she is still far away from it.

As for Mu Shiyu, when she encountered such a trivial matter, King Li rushed over in a hurry.

Mu Qingqing looked at the masked man. If there was someone willing to pamper and love her so much. Even if his smile was ruined, she would be willing to marry such a beloved man.

"Master Hou, he is right outside the door. I have tied him up for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Kang carried someone in from the outside. It was Mr. Accountant who had escaped.

Lin Junrong glanced at Bai Kang. Bai Kang took out the rag that was stuffed in the accountant's mouth, and then kicked him to the ground.

"Tell me." The expressionless Bai Kang spoke, which made the accountant shiver in fright, and the ground instantly became wet.

He was arrested a few days ago and was imprisoned in a dungeon. There were various prisoners in there, and they were subjected to different punishments. Some were beaten with rats, some were skinned, and some had their hands deboned, each one more cruel than the last.

Bai Kang is one of the executors.

"I'll give it all, I'll give it all!" The accountant kept kowtowing.

Everyone in the main hall covered their noses, the smell was too...

However, what Mu Shiyu was curious about was, what did Lin Junrong do to scare Mr. Accountant like this?

Mr. Accountant is indeed a member of the Gu family, and Mu Chenghe personally brought him here from the Gu family. Therefore, there is no letter of introduction or introducer.

This accountant got addicted to gambling at some point. A gambler cannot continue to be an accountant. However, Mrs. Wu discovered it.

Wu threatened him and asked him to make false accounts.

Because he was a member of the Gu family, he had a way to get hold of the account books in Zhuangzi and the store under Mu Shiyu's name.

In this way, he followed Wu's instructions and made false accounts to frame Mu Shiyu.

The accountant made a clear explanation and was dragged out by Bai Kang.

Seeing the yellow water stains all over the floor, Lin Junrong asked a girl to deal with it quickly.

Because Shi Yu has a keen sense of smell, she was afraid that such a bad smell would make her sick.

After hearing what the accountant said, Mrs. Wu's face turned pale, "Master, that's not the case! It must be Mu Shiyu. She bribed the accountant to slander me!"

Mrs. Wu cried very sadly, as if she had really been wronged.

"Madam, please take a look at this." Mu Shiyu said, covering her nose.

Yuan Ru then walked out from behind Mu Shiyu, holding two account books in his hand, as well as some letters and notes.

Yuan Ru placed these things in front of Wu, who trembled as if facing a powerful enemy.

Mu Chenghe turned his head, unwilling to look at Wu. Wu was the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs, but how could she do such a thing? He was so disappointed!

The maid quickly cleaned the room, and Mu Shiyu slowly stood up and walked towards Wu family step by step.

"Madam, you were the one who misappropriated the money, right?"

"My eldest sister was seriously ill some time ago. You spent a lot of money, right?"

"Also, over the years, you have embezzled more than just these two sums in order to keep your eldest sister's food and clothing at the same level as mine, right?"

"Then you can't make up for the shortfall, so you're the one who wants to put the blame on me, right?"

Mu Shiyu's red lips opened and closed, and she clearly explained every account misappropriated by the Wu family, when and for what purpose.

"Father, all the details of what my wife has embezzled over the years are here. You can take a look." After hearing this, Yuan Ru held up another booklet.

Mu Chenghe took the booklet and read it page by page.

"You disappoint me so much!" After reading half of the book, Mu Chenghe turned to the book again and did not want to read any more.

"Sir, that's not the case. Please listen to my explanation. I have been managing the Marquis's residence for so many years, and I have worked hard without any credit!"

Wu burst into tears and collapsed to the ground, pulling on Mu Chenghe's robe and begging for mercy.

"Madam, Shi Yu has received some teachings from the Gu family. Why don't you hand over the power of running the family first and let Shi Yu practice her skills. When she marries my Prince Li in three years, it will be easier for her to take over."

Lin Junrong looked down at Wu, also warning Mu Chenghe!

As Shi Yu's father, he immediately doubted his daughter! He took over the power of running the family!

"Master, how can she, a young lady who has not yet left the government, be in charge of the family?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wu became even more anxious.

She has always been the mistress of the Hou Mansion, and she has spent the best money on food and clothing. If she loses the right to run the house, she will definitely not be able to use the food and clothing.

"Master Marquis, if you agree, I can make up for this shortfall and let Shi Yu practice." Lin Junrong said dotingly.

This means, Lord Marquis, I will pay for Mu Shiyu to be in charge of the Marquis House for three years.

When Mu Shihua and Mu Qingqing heard this, their eyes lit up. How much money had the Wu family pocketed over the years?

King Li said without batting an eye that he would make up for the shortfall, and the reason was that he wanted Mu Shiyu to practice!

Mu Chenghe was still hesitant at first. Wu was such a greedy person, and he was struggling with who should be in power.

And how should Wu make up for the shortfall he has suffered over the years?

But as soon as King Li said these words, he suddenly became clear and bright.

Mu Shiyu has now given a marriage to Prince Li. Even if she were to take charge of the family before leaving the cabinet, she would still be able to make sense and would not spread any unpleasant words.

Moreover, Prince Li was very wealthy and wanted to make up for the shortfall, so this was regarded as collecting the betrothal gift in advance. Three years later, the Hou Mansion recovered and fully supplied Shi Yu.

"Then, as the prince said, let Shi Yu practice her skills. As for this shortfall, our palace will make up for it from Shi Yu's dowry in three years."

Mu Chenghe took a look at the messy accounts. If the deficit could not be made up, the Hou Mansion would not be able to maintain its daily basic expenses.

"Master!" After hearing this decision, Wu fainted.

What she originally wanted was to let Mu Shiyu spend the money to repair the hole, and then she would take the money and spend it on Mu Shihua.

However, it was Wu who stole the chicken but lost the rice. Just like that, she suddenly fainted with anger.

"Shi Yu, study hard. My huge Prince Li's Mansion is much more difficult to take care of than this Marquis Mansion." Lin Junrong had an extremely sweet smile on his lips.

"You don't believe me?" The two of them have always been in tune with each other, so what Lin Junrong did made Mu Shiyu secretly exclaimed!

"No, Shi Yu is so smart, how could he not believe it." Lin Junrong never hesitated to praise Mu Shi Yu.

The two of them were showing off their affection as they went back and forth, ignoring the other people next to them.

"Ahem, cough, cough." Mu Chenghe pretended to cough a few times, and then let them get tired of it. They don't know how long they will get tired of it.

"Your Majesty, what happened in the house today made you laugh. What about Mr. Accountant?" He asked. After all, Mr. Accountant is still a servant of the Marquis's residence.

"Of course I leave it to the Marquis." Lin Junrong replied politely.

"Shi Yu, the matter has been taken care of. I'll take you out for some fresh air. The room stinks so much!" Lin Junrong said with a look of disgust.

After abducting his daughter in front of her father, Lin Junrong did not even look at Mu Chenghe's expression, which was the color of pig liver.

"Father, the smell in the house is indeed a bit dirty. My daughter and Prince Li went out for a walk." Mu Shiyu saluted and left directly behind Lin Junrong.

However, seeing the two people so in love, Mu Chenghe felt relieved a lot.

Gu died young and he was always busy with official duties. He did not take good care of Mu Shiyu, and he always felt a little guilty in his heart.
