On the night of the wedding, the sick prince opened his bloody eyes, pinched my neck and asked, "Who are you?"
I said, "We're from the Audit Bureau, here to check the accounts."
——
She traveled through time and became a concubine who was stuffed into a sedan chair, and the beginning was the bridal chamber.
Lying on the bed was a man who was about to die, and everyone in the house was looking forward to his death.
I opened the account books of the Hou Mansion and found out that I had an occupational disease——
Five thousand taels of silver a year could not be accounted for, and half of the prince's house was stolen in three years.
The "coma" prince crawled to my bedside in the middle of the night and said in a hoarse voice:
"Find out who is greedy, who is cheating, and who is stabbing in the back."
Check the accounts? This is my old profession.
In three days, I uncovered eight accounting clerks who were greedy for money.
Five days later, I discovered that the money had gone to the Regent's Palace.
In one month, I slapped thirty years of bad debts on everyone's faces.
The whole government hated me to the core: "A woman is in charge of the accounts, breaking the rules!"
I smashed the account book on the ground:
"Rules? Why don't you follow the rules when you are greedy for money?"
The sick prince stood behind me and said coldly:
"Anyone who talks nonsense will be dealt with according to military law."
Later I found out that he wanted me to check more than just the accounts——
There are still three thousand lives, three hundred thousand taels of military pay, and a powerful regent.
And he, from the very beginning, had no intention of just letting me be the accountant.
