Chapter 89 See Through
The Gu family's own property can be said to be almost non-existent. After being granted the title of marquis, the emperor not only rewarded the house but also a lot of property. This gave the Anyuan Marquis Mansion a foothold in the capital.

But now, five properties have been lost. After checking, it was found that there was not much money left in the account. This made the old lady who was always accustomed to luxury unbearable.

"Is this what Butler Jiang Fuyue is doing? There is only more than 1000 taels of silver left in the account?!" The old lady was so angry that she slapped her chest, "We are such a big prince, how can we only have such a small amount of money in the account? I'm afraid it's not because of the She swallowed it!”

Mr. Accountant lowered his head and did not dare to speak. Mother Liu beside her did not dare to speak at all.

Jiang Fuyue could say something else, but the account books for the past years are all here. The accounts above are clearly organized. It is clear at a glance which yard spent the most money, and they can withstand verification and scrutiny.

The old lady just wanted to vent her anger and just say a few words. Who among the people below would dare to support her without conscience?

Mother Liu can’t do it either!

"No, I have to talk to her!" The old lady closed the account book and was about to leave. "How dare you claim to be virtuous when you manage your family like this!"

"Old madam, you can't do this!" Mother Liu was so frightened that she quickly stepped forward to block the old madam's way. "Old madam, my wife's health is not recovered yet. If she is tired again, she will be killed by your majesty and her husband." If the Queen knows about it, then our Marquis Mansion will be finished!"

"How big of a face does she have, so that His Majesty and Your Majesty can always pay attention to her?" The old lady felt even more distressed when she thought of her son being beaten to a bloody state, and she became even more determined to trouble Jiang Fuyue.

Seeing the old lady taking steps to leave, Mother Liu quickly said: "Old madam, that adult said that the sixty canes have not been finished yet, and they will come tomorrow!"

At that time, the old lady fainted on the ground and did not hear these words.

"You're still here?!" The old lady's eyes suddenly widened, "I beat everyone unconscious today, are you still here tomorrow?!"

And let no one live!
Mother Liu nodded with a grimace and said, "Yes, the lord said it himself, saying that His Majesty has made a decree and these sixty sticks must be beaten!"

Hearing this, the old lady didn't care about looking for trouble anymore. She rolled her eyes and fell straight down.

-

The next day, the chamberlain came over again with someone, including Shen Chuan, who was wearing a light crimson official uniform.

The chamberlain didn't even look down on the Marquis and the old lady of the Marquis, but he was respectful to Shen Chuan, and even went to bring Shen Chuan a cup of tea in person: "Master Shen, please use it."

Shen Chuan took it with both hands and said "Thank you".

The chamberlain quickly bent down again and said with a smile: "Master Shen's words are obvious. It is my honor to be able to serve you!"

The old lady on the side looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but murmur in her heart.

Xin Dao said that the person serving in the palace didn't have very good eyesight. He was just a fifth-rank official. How could he be so respectful?
Besides, as a palace chamberlain, she nodded and bowed to a fifth-rank official with a face full of flattery. In her opinion, this chamberlain was truly damaging the face of the Tian family!

The old lady has never been a person who can hide things, and the two people in front of her are very good at observing words and emotions. They can tell what the old lady is planning at a glance.

However, smart people will not look down upon people who make their stupidity obvious.

At this time, Anyuanhou was carried out alive by two chamberlains and sent to the execution bench.

Seeing Anyuanhou like this, the old lady didn't care about anything else. She stood up immediately, her face was full of distress, and the handkerchief in her hand was pinched tightly.

This is her only son!

She had held it in her hands and cared for it carefully for so many years, but now, she was treated like this!
Any mother-in-law would probably not be able to stand this.

The old lady looked at the chambermaid with longings and wanted to plead, but the words could not come out.

Shen Chuan's eyes were indifferent, and his gaze fell on Anyuan Hou, as if he was looking at a dead object.

The chamberlain didn't even look at the old lady's face. He just felt that Marquis Anyuan was quite honest today and saved a lot of effort compared to yesterday. He would probably be able to return to the palace earlier soon.

He was about to order the execution when a voice suddenly sounded: "Wait a minute." Hearing this voice, Shen Chuan's drinking tea suddenly paused slightly.

The chamberlain also turned to look.

I saw a woman being supported by someone and coming slowly.

The woman is extremely beautiful. Under her slender willow eyebrows are a pair of extremely smart autumn eyes, which are moving and touching.

Her face was extremely pale, and she was dressed in plain clothes, which made her look even more frail in her illness. The saying that she was as sick as Xizi was three points better, was nothing more than that.

"Madam, why did you come out?" The waiter also had a flash of surprise in his eyes. When he spoke again, his tone was a little softer, "You are still ill. If anything happens, just ask the girls to send a message. It’s done!”

Jiang Fuyue didn't come to the palace often, and the servants had only seen Jiang Fuyue a few times. Every time they were shocked, they sighed inwardly - how could such a beauty be worthy of such a thing? !
Jiang Fuyue pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes falling on Shen Chuan: "I have something to say to Mr. Shen."

"This..." The waiter was a little embarrassed.

Who doesn't know that Mr. Shen is the most difficult person to deal with. There are few civil and military officials in this dynasty who can talk to him.

But I can't resist someone who has the ability, so I directly fall into His Majesty's eyes!
Therefore, even if many people in the court dislike him, they can only rack their brains and rush to please him, not seeking to be friends with him, but only hoping not to offend him.

Even though Mrs. Gu is a rare beauty, she is already married after all. This Master Shen is not a person who is greedy for beauty, how could it be possible...

Just when the chamberlain was thinking of how to refuse for Shen Chuan, Shen Chuan had already stood up: "Madam, please speak."

"It's not convenient here. I wonder if Mr. Shen can follow me to the back..."

Shen Chuan nodded sharply: "Madam, please go first."

Jiang Fuyue did not refuse, turned around, and walked towards the back first. Shen Chuan nodded slightly at the chamberlain, and then stepped up to follow.

Both of them left, and the chamberlain bowed his hands to the old lady and followed her, watching from a distance.

Behind the front hall is a garden. The scenery is neither good nor bad. In short, Jiang Fuyue has not taken care of it. The people below take care of it themselves.

The two of them stood in the middle, with everything around them transparent and unobstructed.

"What do you want to say, madam?" Shen Chuan lowered his voice and asked.

Jiang Fuyue pursed her lips and said, "I would like to ask Mr. Shen to show your respect. Lord Marquis is a noble man. If we continue to beat him like yesterday, I'm afraid he will be useless in the future..."

Shen Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at Jiang Fuyue without saying anything for a long time.

After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I heard that my wife wants to reconcile."

Jiang Fuyue was taken aback.

Why does Sun Jingke have such a big mouth?
Even Shen Chuan knows?
Don't expect the entire capital to know!
Seeing that she seemed to be in a trance, Shen Chuan said: "Madam, don't worry. Madam Xie only told the young master to listen to it. Because I have a close relationship with the young master, the young master only told me."

Jiang Fuyue was slightly relieved.

"Madam... you don't have any emergency illness, do you?"

Jiang Fuyue's eyebrows moved slightly, and she subconsciously looked at Shen Chuan, her eyes going straight into a bottomless abyss.

 Go back to your parents’ house tomorrow!
