Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

In an instant, Boss Qiao fell silent, his face as pale as paper. He stared at Gu Qinlan in horror, not knowing where he had said something inappropriate.

Gu Qinlan fiddled with the emerald jade bracelet on her wrist lightly, glanced at Boss Qiao nonchalantly, and then said slowly in a cold tone:

"Knowing that you have been receiving monthly salary from Prince Duan's Mansion for many years, you dare to use these tricks under the nose of Prince Duan's Mansion. Do you really think that no one in Prince Duan's Mansion can investigate?"

Boss Qiao dared not utter any rebuttal, for fear that the sharp sword on his neck would fall immediately and chop off his head.

The guys were exchanging glances with each other at this moment, as if they wanted to say something but were worried about getting into trouble.

After all, it was the temptation of ten taels of silver!

What’s more, I can continue to work in the grain store!

However, if they report Boss Qiao, will he let them go?

Finally, a young man in his twenties mustered up the courage, stepped forward, and said with gritted teeth:

"Princess, I am reporting that Boss Qiao mixed stones into the brown rice and then sold it to the people at the original price!"

After hearing this, Gu Qinlan turned his gaze to Xiang Zhu, who immediately stepped forward and handed ten taels of silver to the young man.

The young man's eyes lit up and his body began to tremble involuntarily.

This is ten taels of silver!

When others saw this scene, they couldn't bear it anymore!

Ten taels of silver. Even if he leaves the grain store, what can Boss Qiao do no matter how powerful he is?

"Princess, I am reporting Boss Qiao for driving up the price of rice during this year of famine!"

"reward."

Gu Qinlan nodded slightly, and Xiang Zhu immediately rewarded the man with another ten taels of silver.

When the others saw this, they stood up excitedly:

"Princess, I am reporting Boss Qiao for selling inferior goods as good ones!"

"Princess, I am reporting Boss Qiao for selling spoiled old rice!"

"Princess, I have a small report..."

Everyone exposed Boss Qiao's secrets, from big to small, without leaving anything out.

Boss Qiao's face turned pale and he cursed at the guys.

However, the guys didn't care about it at all. It was just a few words of scolding, which was nothing compared to real money.

Besides, Boss Qiao has been greedy over the years but has never given them a penny. Why should they be loyal to him?

Finally, everyone left, leaving only a teenager of about seventeen or eighteen years old scratching his head anxiously.

"Princess, Xiao, I saw Boss Qiao secretly hiding something in the toilet at the back last night!"

As soon as these words came out, Boss Qiao's face turned pale instantly. He raised his head abruptly and glared at the young man:

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"I, I'm not kidding, it's just that last night, you, you secretly hid it..."

The young man was frightened by Boss Qiao's angry shout and took two steps back, speaking timidly.

Gu Qinlan raised her eyebrows slightly, and Lou Donglei immediately took his men to the back.

Soon, Lou Donglei came back pinching his nose and reported to Gu Qinlan:

"Princess, this is the real account book of the grain store."

Gu Qinlan took a look, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said: "Reward, twenty taels."

Xiang Zhu handed the twenty taels to the young man, who danced with joy and stopped stuttering. He said directly:

"Princess, I know where Boss Qiao hid the rice mixed with stones!"

At this point, Boss Qiao really collapsed. He pointed at the young man and angrily cursed:

"You beast! You ungrateful bastard! Do you still have any conscience? I am your uncle! Is this how you treat your uncle? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

After being reprimanded, the young man involuntarily shrank his shoulders, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. However, when he quickly glanced at Gu Qinlan, his eyes, which were originally full of fear, immediately became firm. He refuted without hesitation:

"It's really chilling for my uncle to say such things. My parents' bodies are still warm, and you can't wait to embezzle my family's property!"

"On the surface, they took me home to raise me, but in reality, they treated me like a servant! They either beat or scolded me every day. Who has lost their conscience?"

"Now, you have done so many evil things. Princess Duan is fair and selfless, and she will definitely not show mercy to you!"

The young man was no longer afraid of the shopkeeper Qiao.

He was not stupid, so he could see that Gu Qinlan intended to crack down on this evil trend, and that the end of Shopkeeper Qiao was not far away. With the support of Princess Duan, what else did he have to fear?

Besides, he had money in his hands and was full of confidence!

"You..." Shopkeeper Qiao was so angry that his body was shaking and his face turned pale.

Gu Qinlan glanced at the young man with interest and said softly, "Not bad, the reward is fifty taels of silver."

There was a hint of surprise in the boy's eyes, and he immediately said excitedly: "Thank you, Princess! Princess, I will lead the way for you right away!"

Gu Qinlan nodded slightly, signaling Lou Donglei to follow the young man.

Since Shopkeeper Qiao was not hiding far away and the food was hidden in a small courtyard rented nearby, Lou Donglei found this place soon after.

Faced with the ironclad facts, Shopkeeper Qiao was dizzy and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy:

"Princess, please calm down! I was just impulsive at the moment, which is why I made such a big mistake! Please forgive me, I will definitely be loyal in the future and will never dare to slack off again!"

Gu Qinlan sneered, stared at Shopkeeper Qiao sharply, and said sternly:

"Impulsive? You have been working in the grain store for several years, embezzling and enriching yourself, deceiving your superiors and subordinates, and deceiving the people! You have ruined Duan's reputation! From today on, your position as storekeeper will be revoked, and you will have to pay back all the embezzled money. In addition, you will be caned thirty times!"

Shopkeeper Qiao's face instantly turned into one of horror.

But Shopkeeper Qiao knew that he could not give up easily, and he immediately argued:

"Princess, you can't just drive me away like this!"

"If I leave, this grain store will be unattended. Won't it go bankrupt like Taibai Tower?"

"The loss will only be greater then. How will you explain to Princess Lao Duan then?"

After hearing this, Gu Qinlan smiled slightly...

Shopkeeper Qiao is quite smart. The previous shopkeeper of Taibai Tower has been investigated by the government, which means that Taibai Tower cannot continue to operate without a new shopkeeper.

If the grain store also loses its owner at this time, it will not be able to operate.

If two stores come to a standstill in succession, it will indeed be a big blow to Prince Duan's Mansion.

If Princess Lao Duan knew about this, she would probably not remember her contribution in eradicating the cancer, but would only think that she acted recklessly and without regard for the consequences.

however……

Will she be a reckless person?

Since she dared to take action, she must have been fully prepared.

Then, Gu Qinlan chuckled and said:

"You take your position too seriously, Shopkeeper Qiao. You are not as important as you think."

After a brief pause, Gu Qinlan stood up, looked at the young man, and asked gently:

"What's your name?"

"My name is Mou Yanmeng." Although Mou Yanmeng didn't know Gu Qinlan's intention, he still answered respectfully.

Gu Qinlan nodded slightly and said kindly, "You have done a good job. You are brave and knowledgeable. You dare to expose the crimes of your relatives. You act cautiously and are good at observation. From today on, you will be promoted to deputy manager of the grain store. Before the new manager arrives, you will temporarily manage this grain store."
