The Tyrant Father's Pampered Daughter

527 Go On, Why Aren’t You Continuing To Make Stories Up!

Gu Nuo’er’s gaze was clear. She said in confusion, “Why not? Since you’re afraid that I’ll cover up for her, I’ll get the uncles from the government office here. There are some witnesses here and everyone will get a good look.”

After saying that, she smiled and said, “No one can escape today. We will make sure that this matter is sorted out clearly today.”

The man hurriedly tugged at the woman’s sleeve. The couple looked at each other and both felt that things were not going well.

Old Jiang was afraid that Gu Nuo’er would be tired from standing, so he took the initiative to bring out a small bench for the little fellow to sit on.

Gu Nuo’er sat down obediently and looked at Ning Chudie, who felt that she had caused trouble. She reached out her small hand and patted Ning Chudie. “Don’t be nervous. I’m here!”

Ye Siming quickly invited the four constables over.

Previously, these constables had been rewarded with money by the government office for capturing the troublemaker, Zhang San.

When they heard that someone was causing trouble at the little princess’s store, they hurriedly brought their sabers over.

The leading constable was fierce. “Who’s causing trouble?!”

Gu Nuo’er supported her chin with her small hand and her round eyes lit up. “Constable uncles, this auntie said that my accountant tried to seduce her husband and even showed ‘evidence’.”

Ye Siming handed the note to the constables.

The child instructed casually, “It’s very simple. You only need to do two things. First, enter the shop. There are many books on the accounting desk. They’re all used by Elder Sister Chudie to record accounts. Compare them with the handwriting on the note and you’ll know if it’s true.

“Secondly, when they said that they were here to buy pastries, Elder Sister Chudie gave the man a piece of paper and asked him out to meet her between 11 pm and 1 am. Ask him if he remembered the name of the pastries he bought.”

Gu Nuo’er smiled at the man. “I’ll tell you in advance. You have to think carefully and answer because the sugar cakes we sell every day are different.”

When the constable heard this, they realized that Her Highness had even thought out the process of how to handle the case.

She was really considerate and obedient!

Gu Nuo’er crossed her arms and shook her feet leisurely. “I invited the constables here because I want a third person to investigate fairly and impartially so that you won’t say that I’m being biased.”

After saying that, she waved her hand. “Let’s start now~”

The head constable nodded and ordered, “You guys, go and get a few accounting books over.”

When the constables heard this, they quickly entered the shop and came out.

They compared the three or four accounting books in their hands and looked at the words on the note.

The constables scratched their heads and frowned. “They… don’t look the same!”

Although Ning Chudie’s family had come to a downfall, she used to be a young lady from a wealthy family and had studied before.

Her handwriting was very neat, and there were traces at the end of each stroke.

However, the handwriting on the note was very messy. It did not look like it was written by someone who had been practicing calligraphy for years.

The constable asked the man again, “On which day did you come to buy the sugar cakes?”

The man’s gaze became evasive and he stammered, “About… two days ago.”

“What did you buy?”

“I bought…” The man hesitated.

Gu Nuo’er raised her fair face calmly and waited for him to speak.

Her dark and lively eyes seemed to be saying, ‘Go on, why aren’t you continuing to make stories up?!’

Seeing that he was stammering, the constable urged fiercely, “Tell me quickly!”

The man was shocked and turned to run!

Almost at the same time, the woman followed behind him. The two of them actually wanted to break through the crowd!

However, they were blocked by the commoners who were crowding around to watch the commotion.

The constables immediately went forward and pressed the couple down.

“You want to run?! Looks like you have a guilty conscience. Bring them all back to the government office!”

Gu Nuo’er smiled sweetly. “According to the law, if these two people try to escape, each of them has to receive 20 strokes of the paddle before they are interrogated.”

Only then did the couple kneel and kowtow. They kept begging for mercy and trembled. “Your Highness, please let us off. We were blinded by greed and received instructions from someone!”
