Ye paused, then shouted with a look of resentment and disbelief, "The dowry that Meng Wanzhou brought has been depreciated a lot over the years! The entire prime minister's residence needs expenses. Your father also needs money to manage various interpersonal relationships for the prime minister."

"My mother is the only legitimate daughter of the Duke Meng's Mansion, so her dowry must be quite large. Yun Boliang was born in a poor family. If it weren't for the help of my mother and the Duke Meng's Mansion, how could he have become the prime minister of a country?" Yun Mujiu refuted based on the memory in his mind.

Ye's eyes were red with anger. She was not born in a high-class family, just a daughter of a small seventh-rank official in Jing County. What she hated most was when others talked about her background. Her background would always be an indelible pain in her heart.

Yun Mujiu's "unintentional remark" hit her most vulnerable side.

If it weren't for this, how could Meng Wanzhou be Yun Xiang's first wife?

Yun Boliang became the prime minister with the help of Meng Wanzhou and the Duke Meng's Mansion, so she hooked up with Yun Boliang for the sake of wealth and glory. Although Yun Boliang married Meng Wanzhou soon after.

Yun Mujiuyan added a threat with a smile, "Mrs. Ye, you'd better not lie to me. If I check the account book and find that you lied to me, I will announce to the world that you poisoned the legitimate daughter and did not take the life of a prince's wife seriously. How many heads do you think the Yun family has that can be chopped off?"

"The dowry your mother brought at that time, including banknotes, totaled 400,000 taels of silver. We have suffered a lot of losses over the years." Duke Meng was one of the founding generals. When he was young, he made many military achievements in guarding the border for the Zhongyue Kingdom. In addition to his eldest son, Meng Shihao, he only had one daughter, Meng Wanzhou.

At the beginning, Meng Wanzhou was eager to marry the poor boy Yun Boliang, and she was willing to sever the father-daughter relationship with Duke Meng. Although Duke Meng despised Yun Boliang, he still helped Yun Boliang a lot for his daughter.

Yun Boliang secretly used the banner of Duke Meng's son-in-law and borrowed a lot of power to successfully become the prime minister.

"Adding the money that the Yun family has earned from my mother's dowry over the years, just give me a total of one million taels of silver." Yun Mujiu said calmly, as if one million taels of silver was just a simple number.

In fact, she was using provocation to test Ye's bottom line.

Seeing Yun Mujiu asking for too much, Ye couldn't help but said anxiously, "The entire Yun Mansion plus your mother's dowry only has one million taels of silver! Yun Mujiu, don't you care about your brothers and sisters?"

Yun Mujiu saw Ye's face full of indignation, gritting his teeth, and his pupils dilated.

Moreover, Ye's eyes were tilted to the left when she spoke, which shows that she was telling the truth and recalling the facts rationally and logically.

When Yun Mujiu was in the 07th Military Region in modern society, he studied some psychology knowledge on his own and acquired a strong sense of sensitivity through practice.

Knowing that Ye was not lying, Yun Mujiu crossed his arms over his chest and thought for a while:

"Then it's better to have a smaller amount. Just consider it as a little interest for the Yun Mansion keeping my mother's dowry for so many years."

"Convert all the dowry my mother brought into cash for 400,000 taels of silver, and take out 200,000 taels of silver from the money the Yun family earned from the dowry, for a total of 600,000 taels of silver."

Yun Mujiu knew that Ye had already sold all the properties and real estate in Meng Wanzhou's dowry, and the properties and real estate had been firmly controlled by people arranged by Ye over the years.

Yun Mujiu currently has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't know much about real estate and property business. So it would be most cost-effective to convert all of them into silver bills.

Anyway, she will have the opportunity to continue to suppress the Yun family in the future, so she doesn't have to worry about this moment. They ate something they shouldn't have eaten first, and later not only had to spit it out, but also had to pay double compensation!

"I don't have any brothers or sisters. If you don't want me to expose your shame, and to expose Yun Shirou's lack of propriety and shame, and to collude with her future brother-in-law, the Crown Prince, while her eldest sister's marriage was still intact..."

Yun Mujiu used the art of language skillfully. The word "active" means that she can keep her promise and not reveal the truth to others, but that does not mean that she will prevent others from discovering the truth.

When the matter became known, it was not her responsibility to conceal and deal with it.

With a "puff", Ye couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. It was really infuriating! Her daughter was the future crown princess, how could there be such negative news!

Anyway, Yun Mujiu will have a miserable life if she marries the violent regent! Even if Yun Mujiu doesn't die for the time being, when her daughter Shirou takes the position of Crown Princess, killing Yun Mujiu will be as easy as crushing an ant!

The two maids were trembling with fear as they listened to the conversation between Yun Mujiu and Ye. Originally, they tried their best to be invisible people standing by, but now it seemed that they were doomed. They accidentally heard a lot of things that they shouldn't know.

The fat and thin maids trembled as they stepped forward, trying to use a handkerchief to wipe the blood off Ye's lips.

Ye shook off their hands, raised her right hand, and with a clear "pa pa" sound, she slapped each of the two maids hard, making them dizzy.

She can't control Yun Mujiu, but can't she deal with these two lowly servants?

Ye withdrew her hand, and pinched her palm hard with her clasped fingers, causing blood to ooze out, as if the physical pain was not as painful as the pain in her heart.

She bit her lip and said viciously, "Deal. I'll give it to you when you come back in three days."

Yun Mujiu curled her lips slightly and said, "Give me everything without losing any money tomorrow morning before the wedding, otherwise I will be angry and do something stupid." She is not that stupid. With so much time, Ye will definitely find a chance to attack her.

In less than a day, the Ye family not only had to sell off their land and properties, but also had to raise so much money. They definitely had no time and energy to frame Yun Mujiu.

Ye looked at Yun Mujiu in front of him and now felt that Yun Mujiu was so strange that it was scary. Although his figure, eyebrows, and voice were the same as before, was this really the useless Yun Mujiu?

Ye was startled and winked at the fat maid who was crying, then glanced at Yun Mujiu's veil.

The fat maid could only grit her teeth, muster up her courage, and silently move towards Yun Mujiu.

Little did they know that Yun Mujiu had already been watching their actions coldly.

The next second, the fat maid screamed "Ah", pretended to slip and fell towards Yun Mujiu, her hands flying around, and "accidentally" pulled off Yun Mujiu's veil.

Ye took a closer look and found that Yun Mujiu still looked the same, extremely ugly, but his bright and shining eyes made him look like a completely different person.

Yun Mujiu pretended that she knew nothing and put on her veil again with a calm face.

She used makeup to disguise the birthmark just to make people believe that she was still the same person. She was the real Yun Mujiu, not some random person pretending to be Yun Mujiu.

Ye felt like her chest was about to explode, her cheeks flushed, and even though it was winter, sweat broke out on her forehead. She brushed her sleeves vigorously and said weakly:

"I'll send it over tomorrow morning."

After saying that, she turned away.

Yun Mujiu shouted again at this time, "Madam, remember to ask these two maids to keep it a secret."

"Also, have someone bring me some normal food, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen to me."

The fat and thin maid was also one of the murderers who killed the original owner. She had been abusing the original owner for many years and left quietly last night, allowing the thieves to kidnap the original owner, which eventually led to the original owner's death.

Ye's hurried footsteps paused for a moment and then quickly left, and the two maids following behind her began to tremble in their legs.

The smile in Yun Mujiu's eyes deepened. If he guessed correctly, Ye Shi would definitely deal with these two maids. Even if they were not killed, they would definitely not let them have an easy life.

Yun Mujiu was in a good mood and began to think about his next step leisurely.

So what should we do next?
