My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire!
Chapter 2147 Inquiry
The account books of the palace were usually managed by Mr. Bai Er, but at this moment, everyone in the palace was confined in the house, and the housekeeper was also a trusted person, so he could naturally get it.
The housekeeper came first with the account book, and Gu Xin took it and flipped through it.
She read very quickly. The book she flipped through was the income and expenditure record of the palace in the shop in Taizhou City two years ago. She wrote down the things handled by Mr. Bai Er.
After she wrote down a few major matters, Mr. Bai Er came outside to announce his arrival.
Gu Xin put down the account book and asked someone to invite Mr. Bai Er in.
After Mr. Bai came in, he didn't look at the account book next to Gu Xin.
After Gu Xin and others bowed, they talked about the Bai family's shop in the city as if chatting about family matters.
Mr. Bai Er was able to answer fluently, but if he was asked about the details, he would calmly say that it was a long time ago and that his family had many businesses and he couldn't remember clearly.
Mr. Bai Er didn't look at the account book at all.
After asking these questions, Gu Xin began to ask where Mr. Bai was at the time of the crime. Mr. Bai replied, "On the first day of the new year, my younger sister came back with her husband and nephews and nieces. I entertained them at home and never went out. Everyone in the family can testify." Gu Xin asked again, "Then where was Mr. Bai on the night of April 30?" Mr. Bai replied, "I received a letter and knew that my younger sister and her family would arrive on the first day of the new year, so I went to bed early that night. Oh, by the way, I also asked someone to look for my father and my third brother. My third brother was drinking outside that night." Gu Xin nodded, "On the first day of the new year, was there anyone who could confirm where you were at every hour and every point?" Mr. Bai frowned, "Princess, this is because you are asking for the title of Crown Prince. "Gu Xin didn't get angry because of his bad tone, and said calmly: "It's just a routine inquiry. I asked the princess the same question just now. Why, Mr. Bai, can't you let someone testify with you at a certain time of the day?" Mr. Bai looked at Gu Xin and said, "My younger sister and her friends arrived at noon. After they arrived, I accompanied them to the Buddhist temple to see my mother. After that, I chatted with my brother-in-law, and then went back to the study to read books and account books. Then I had dinner and went back to my room to rest. There are people who can testify!" Gu Xin moved her hands. You didn't see the account books next to me the whole time. You said you were looking at the account books that day? I'm afraid you don't even know what your own account books look like? Gu Xin smiled and asked, "What about before Princess Baozhu arrived?"
Mr. Bai pursed his lips and said, "Before my sister came, I arranged for someone to clean up her yard as usual. Anyway, it was just all kinds of chores at home."
Gu Xin saw that his forehead seemed to be sweating. She didn't know whether he was hot or afraid. Then she asked, "Be more specific. What chores did you do that day? Which maid, which servant, or the second wife can testify for you?"
Mr. Bai's eyes lit up: "Yes, my wife accompanied me to deal with it. My wife can testify for me. The princess can ask her later."
Gu Xin asked again: "Has Mr. Bai ever thought about becoming the prince of this palace?"
Mr. Bai said without hesitation: "Of course I thought about it. My eldest brother is gone, and it's my turn according to the order. It's just that my eldest brother has a son, so I don't compete with him."
Gu Xin: "Oh, Mr. Bai is such a good uncle. OK, I have finished asking questions, Mr. Bai, please!"
