Favoring Concubines and Destroying Wife: Reborn, I Married to a Rich Man and Destroyed His Whole Fam

"Sir Gu, what are you still doing standing outside? For today's matter, you have to help Madam Li count the dowry..." Yun Zhao started, calling out to Minister Gu who was standing at the door.

Lord Li looked towards the door suddenly. He saw Minister Gu of the Ministry of Revenue standing there with some people.

what?

All of this was heard by Minister Gu and his men? Wouldn't his reputation be ruined?

Minister Gu had never thought that Yun Zhao would invite him to do something like this. Thinking of Xie's affairs, he felt a burning pain on his face. What was the difference between him back then and Mr. Li now?

The only difference is that Mrs. Xie is dead, while Mrs. Li is still alive and is trying her best to protect her daughter.

If Xie had not been killed at that time, would his legitimate daughter have been able to survive?

"Yes, I obey."

Minister Gu looked at Lord Li with a serious expression and said.

"Master Li, please cooperate with us in our mission."

Princess Zhaoyang actually ordered the Minister of Revenue to come and check his wife's dowry, and count it on the spot? His face turned pale and red. The relationship between Princess Zhaoyang and his wife seemed to be much closer than he imagined.

How could this be?

Lord Li looked at Madam Li and said in a low voice.

"Madam, I know I was wrong. Please help us to speak up for us and don't make a big deal out of it. I will treat you well in the future and will not let Tian bully you again. I will also take good care of my mother..."

Listening to her husband's words, Mrs. Li laughed sarcastically.

"If I had known today, why would I have done it in the first place?"

If Princess Zhaoyang hadn't given her some people, and if she hadn't wanted to save her daughter and fought against them with all her might, how could she have waited for Princess Zhaoyang to save her?

"I must get my dowry back today. You must also pay me back whatever the Li family owes me."

When Lord Li heard this, he immediately became anxious.

"Madam, why are you like this? What do you mean by our Li family owes you? Yours belongs to the Li family."

Yun Zhao listened to their conversation and laughed sarcastically.

"Lord Li is really shameless. What was the Li family like in the past? If there was no Aunt Meng, how could your Li family be like this now? Your whole family eats and uses Aunt Meng's food, but bullies and beats Aunt Meng and Sister Wei'er. It really opens my eyes..."

Minister Gu looked at Mrs. Li's dowry list and listened to Princess Chao'an's words. He felt that these words were all meant for him. At the beginning, he was as stupid as Lord Li, thinking that everything depended on himself, and Xie only helped a little.

However, he didn't know that it was the help of Xie family and Lord Xie's Mansion that allowed him to rise to high positions. His good friends of the same period are now all from the fifth rank, and some of them are even from the fifth rank, but he went from the fourth rank to the third rank.

Some people will never be able to make any further progress in their lifetime.

This time he came to Jiangnan, he also wanted to make merit. But if he displeased Princess Zhaoyang, he would not only fail to make merit, but might even be demoted to the fourth rank, and he would have to spend another ten years to climb up. By that time, there would be more newcomers, and he would not be able to get the position of Minister of Revenue.

Not to mention entering the cabinet, he has no chance at all.

Therefore, he would obey whatever Princess Zhaoyang and Princess Chaoan said.

"Madam Li, could you please have someone take me and my men to investigate?"

"of course can."

Mrs. Li smiled and agreed.

She had waited for this day for too long.
