The cousin girl plays the role of silly and sweet every day

Chapter 18 Unfriendly

Jiang Wenyu was stunned by this sudden kindness.

but.

It’s more about confidence than kindness.

Obviously, the prince has never doubted his ability.

Tan Shu raised his long legs and strode out of the door.

He walked to Jin Yiwei opposite, apparently to ask about the situation.

Jiang Wenyu didn't go in. She stopped a maid in the corridor not far away and asked, "Girl, who was the last person your master saw?"

The maid looked at the woman wearing a curtain in front of her strangely, and suddenly remembered that she came with the prince, so she must not be an ordinary family.

"The last person I saw was Grandma Wang. Grandma Wang is usually responsible for the daily life of the master and the young master."

As she said that, she lamented: "The thing that made me worried the most during his lifetime was the young master. What should I do now that the young master is gone?! Just after the master passed away, the young master fell ill... It's really miserable for the madam. Just after the master left, the young master became ill." There is no sign of the young master, and I don’t know what will happen to her next.”

From the maid's tone, it seemed that everyone in the Lin family thought that Lin Ju's relationship with Mrs. Lin was so bad that they might even kick her out of the house.

From the corner of his eye, Jiang Wenyu caught sight of the beautiful Mrs. Lin not far away. He took out some silver coins from his sleeve and stuffed it into the maid's hand.

"Let me ask you something more."

The maid lowered her eyes to look at the things in her hands and nodded: "My dear, please."

Jiang Wenyu's tone was a little soft: "I see that Mrs. Lin is not very old. How did she get into the house?"

"A year ago, I saw my wife in Lefang and married her not long after."

"Where's the music studio?"

The maid thought for a while: "Linglong Pavilion."

Jiang Wenyu nodded.

Linglong Pavilion again?
"Do you have any other questions, girl? I can't stay here too long, otherwise I will get scolded." The maid said embarrassedly.

Jiang Wenyu shook his head and thanked: "No, thank you very much."

Jiang Wenyu raised his eyes and looked over. Not far away, Tan Shu had a cold and indifferent expression, wondering what he was telling Chen Sheng and Wu Yinkun.

This prince is really disgusted with the house and the crow, and his eyes do not hide his displeasure towards Jin Yiwei.

Chen Sheng and Wu Yinkun must be heartbroken, but they can't help but listen to Tan Shu's words.

Jiang Wenyu saw a group of them walking to the lotus pond.

Tan Shu walked around the pool with a cold face, stretched out his hand to tuck the corner of his robe into the jade belt around his waist, and then stepped into the pool.

Huh?
How could he be so hands-on?
As expected, Tan Shu took two steps and remembered something. He turned his head and looked at Chen Sheng and Wu Yinkun with an indifferent expression. He didn't know what he said.

I saw Tan Shu retreating to the edge of the pool, with a look of boredom on his face. Someone handed him a handkerchief, but he didn't accept it. He waved his hand to say no.

Seeing this, Chen Sheng and Wu Yinkun looked at each other, and the latter stepped into the clear water of the quiet pool.

Jiang Wenyu: "..."

It's too early to boast.

Not long after, Wu Yinkun fished out a person from the pool.

Everyone was shocked, showing horrified eyes.

That pale corpse turned out to be the missing Lin Ran!

Jiang Wenyu's eyes widened, and she was shocked inside. She was about to walk over, but Tan Shu had already asked the Jinyi guards to surround her and prevent anyone from getting close.

Jiang Wenyu noticed that Tan Shu looked towards him, stared at her for a while, then turned back to give Chen Sheng instructions as if nothing had happened.

Chen Sheng nodded hurriedly.

Jiang Wenyu: "..."

The prince's dark and sharp eyes are very unfriendly.

That's right, she is the childhood sweetheart of his mortal enemy, so it is normal to be unfriendly.

The Jin Yiwei were as busy as flying geese.

Half an hour later, everyone gathered in the hall.

An autopsy was performed and they said that Lin Ran did not drown, but was tied to a stone and sunk into the pool after death.There were endless sounds of crying, sobbing, lamentation, panic, and comfort in the hall.

Tan Shu frowned, raised his hand and knocked on the table, and the hall immediately fell silent.

Chen Sheng and Wu Yinkun were really shocked today, feeling that they had embarrassed Jin Yiwei.

What they are most worried about is that if Tan Shu uses this case to bury Xie's danger in the future, then they will not have a good life.

Chen Sheng suppressed the anxiety in his heart and asked sharply: "Lin Ran died of suffocation. His body was covered with scars. Who did it?!"

The expression on Lin Ju's face froze.

Grandma Wang suddenly raised her head.

Everyone looked panicked.

Jiang Wenyu sat elegantly on a chair, with the drooping curtain covering her upper body, making her appearance unclear. The lower end of the curtain naturally stacked on her knees was mixed with the train of her skirt.

A pair of hands protruded from the layers of white gauze, with clean and tender fingers and jade-like skin.

Jiang Wenyu's eyes unexpectedly fell on Mrs. Lin. The latter tightened her clothes, tied gauze on her right hand, and looked horrified.

It's a bit painful, but it seems to have been expected.

Mrs. Lin noticed Jiang Wenyu. Although she couldn't see his face clearly, she felt that Jiang Wenyu seemed to be staring at her.

Thinking about this, Mrs. Lin frowned and raised her hand to lightly press the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief.

Tan Shu glanced at everyone, then took out his jade flute out of boredom, tapping one after another, obviously he didn't want to care.

The matter in the Lin Mansion is not enough for him to come forward.

If it weren't for Jiang Wenyu, Tan Shu wouldn't have appeared here at all.

Wu Yinkun's eyes were like daggers, and he pressed forward step by step: "Who is looking after Lin Ran?"

Grandma Wang's expression suddenly changed: "...she is a slave."

Mrs. Lin's red lips trembled and her eyes widened: "Mommy, why are you waiting for Ran'er like this! Why do you want to harm him? He is only six years old!"

Things in the mansion are no more mundane than those in the romantic places outside. There are countless things going wrong with the wife, father-in-law, brother-in-law, maids and servants, etc. if you take a closer look.

Grandma Wang bullied the young master and abused him indiscriminately, leading to his death. She was also afraid of being discovered, so she thought of sinking him into the pond first, and then taking him out and burying him.

She was already panic-stricken and quickly confessed.

Jiang Wenyu felt strange.

Mrs. Lin was a little surprised. It seemed that she had to go to Linglong Pavilion.

Jin Yiwei took away Grandma Wang.

The uproar has subsided.

Tan Shu stood up and saw Jiang Wenyu stunned. He held the jade flute in his hand and tapped her head through the curtain, saying in a casual tone, "Let's go."

Jiang Wenyu came back to his senses and responded: "Yes."

After stepping out of Lin Mansion, Yun Li saw them sitting on the front of the carriage and asked the coachman to drive up to them.

"Your Majesty, my cousin."

"Miss Yunli." Jiang Wenyu greeted sweetly. She turned to look at Tan Shu and asked, "Your Majesty, do we still want to investigate the case?" Although the case was apparently closed.

Tan Shu glanced at Jiang Wenyu, who was only as tall as his shoulder blades.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Go to Yuxiang Tower."

"What are you doing at Yuxiang Tower?" Jiang Wenyu was puzzled.

"Dinner."

Jiang Wenyu declined politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I'm not hungry and have nothing else to do, so I'll leave first."

After a pause, her dark pupils rolled slightly, remembering the life-saving grace he mentioned last night, and added: "Please charge my account for lunch today as a thank you..."

Tan Shu raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled from his nose: "Do I need your invitation?"

　Tan Shu: Initiating a dinner invitation

　　Jiang Wenyu: TD
