Chapter 462: Clouds bubbling up, can’t recognize (Part 1)

Raising the price of food, causing people to panic, beating, and smashing the food shop can be considered as a big crime. If she accepted this charge now, Xiao Tianyao won’t be able to wash clean his name.

Although this time the emperor didn’t severely punish Xiao Tianyao and only fined 200,000 silver. However, similar things may happen in the future. The people of Eastern Country will think that Xiao Tianyao is behind the scenes and used the war to make money.

Therefore, after the eunuch finished reading the imperial decree, Lin Chujiu knelt there motionless and had no intention of accepting the decree.

The official of the Ministry of Justice grabbed and pushed forward the decree in front of Lin Chujiu. Seeing Lin Chujiu not moving, he had to speak to remind her: “Xiao Wangfei, please accept the edict!”

“Accept the edict?” Lin Chujiu looked up and asked.

“Yes, please accept the edict Xiao Wangfei.” The official of the Ministry of Justice respectfully said, but he was actually disdainful. It was only a fine of 200,000 silvers. With Xiao Wangye’s net worth, what is 200, 000 silvers to him?

Xiao Wangfei was a careless person. She was far worse than him.

“No, I can’t take this.” Lin Chujiu didn’t care what the official said, she just shook her head firmly, “I can recognize the fine, but I can’t recognize the accusations on behalf of Xiao Wangye. Wangye disappeared accidentally on the battlefield. He didn’t deliberately conceal his traces. It is not Wangye who sent news of his disappearance in the capital, which caused the price hike. So what does this have to do with Xiao Wangye?”

The official was quite glad to hear Lin Chujiu’s words: “Xiao Wangfei, tell the emperor these words. There’s no use in telling me this.”

Having said that, he once again handed the imperial edict to Lin Chujiu. If it wasn’t because of the difference between men and women, the official would want to shove the imperial edict into Lin Chujiu’s arms: “Xiao Wangfei, you better take the imperial edict quickly. If you have the imperial edict, you can take it to the palace.” He doesn’t care whether the accusation was true or not. He was only responsible for sending the edict and then went back to report to the emperor.

“I’m sorry, I can’t take this edict.” Lin Chujiu put her hands behind her back and didn’t accept the imperial edict: “The crime listed in this edict is not committed by wangye. I can’t accept it.”

“Xiao Wangfei, are you resisting the imperial edict?” After being refused repeatedly, the official couldn’t help but be angry.

Since he became an official of the Ministry of Justice, he can no longer count how many imperial edicts of rewards and punishment he had sent. But he had never seen someone like Lin Chujiu.

“Thunder and rain are all the king’s grace. Xiao Wangfei, you are wise. If you accept the imperial edict, this official will forget this event. Everything will pass. Otherwise, if this thing reached the emperor’s ears, you will be the one who will suffer.” The official said half as advice and half as a threat.

Lin Chujiu’s refusal to accept the edict was certainly unsatisfactory, but this edict was not any better. However, if Lin Chujiu will accept the edict, it will be much better… …

“I can’t afford the hat of resisting on my head. I will send the fine on the imperial edict to the Ministry of Justice, but I can’t take the imperial edict.” Lin Chujiu repeated the same sentence without getting bored.

Without waiting for the official to speak, Lin Chujiu turned her head to Housekeeper Cao and said: “Housekeeper Cao, go to my storeroom and clear out all the valuable things in my dowry.”

“Wang, wangfei… …” Housekeeper Cao was dumbfounded: “You want to sell your dowry?” Xiao Wangfu was not poor. It was only 200,000 silvers. They can take out that amount with closed eyes. There is no need for Lin Chijiu to sell her dowry.
