Chapter 20 Cousin, he...can't do it anymore
Yun Li sent Jiang Wenyu back and returned to Yuxiang Tower not long after.

When she entered, Tan Shu was discussing with Shen Huai.

Yun Li bowed and held out a brocade purse in both hands.

"Your Majesty, my cousin asked me to hand it over to you."

Before asking any special questions, Yun Li followed Shan Ruliu and said, "The girl said that the prince is very smart, and you will know the meaning at a glance."

Tan Shu picked it up, opened it and looked at it. There was silver inside.

The price is just enough for half of today's food.

It seems that she doesn’t want to interact with him again.

Tan Shu remained silent and Yun Li withdrew.

Tan Shu put the purse bag aside casually, put his boots on the table, leaned back lazily, and asked Shen Huai, "I asked you to check, how is it?"

Shen Huai collected his thoughts and said warmly: "The case of my aunt in the Lin Mansion two years ago was found out, and it was indeed Lin Qu's fault. At that time, Zhang Yan was responsible for investigating the case, colluding with Lin Qu, and closing the case in a hurry. After this case, Lin Qu then elected Zhang Yan as the governor of Kaifeng."

Tan Shu: "Whose Zhang Yan is?"

Shen Huai said: "The one in the East Palace."

Li Zhaoyi's people.

Tan Shu gently curved the corners of his lips: "It's a bit interesting."

Zhang Yan usually handles cases carelessly, resorting to despicable means and using frightening torture to force people to confess. There must be someone behind his reckless behavior.

As a minister, Wuhou Mansion always bypassed the princes when doing things, and rarely interfered actively, let alone those who personally killed the prince.

Shen Huai: "Why do you suddenly think of checking Zhang Yan?"

"I see he's unhappy." Tan Shu said, "At dawn tomorrow, I will lead people to raid the Kaifeng Mansion."

More leaks, late at night fell.Dark clouds covered the stars and moon, and the last light in the yard went out.

Jiang Wenyu was lying on the couch, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Suddenly, a gust of cool wind hit him, and the sound of extremely light footsteps came closer and closer.

Jiang Wenyu opened his eyes, picked up the knife hidden under the pillow, got out of bed barefoot, and moved to a corner cautiously.

The Jin Yiwei had just withdrawn, and the people who wanted to kill her came?

Jiang Wenyu clenched the handle of the knife tightly, her heart beating faster in her chest. She worked hard to adjust her breathing to ensure the best condition.

There was a click.

In the dark doorway, a sneaky figure stood outside the door, explored the bulge on the bed, then grinned, crossed the threshold with his legs, and quietly closed the door.

The cousin's boudoir is indeed different from the greasy smell of Hualou. It is sweet but not greasy, lingering with a faint medicinal fragrance. It smells extremely comfortable and almost ecstatic...

Su Jinhua was extremely intoxicated and took several puffs. She suppressed the excitement and joy in her heart and tiptoed to the bed.

After Xie Zhiwei left the capital, he came to Zhuxi Courtyard for a walk every night, but unfortunately someone was watching him secretly.

I didn't have any hope, and I never thought that he would come in so easily tonight.

He has been thinking about this cousin since he was a child, and has always expressed his feelings to her openly and secretly. However, this cousin is too naive to understand her.

My cousin was delicate and frail, so she fell down with just a push.Being grounded again recently, I must be feeling lonely.

Cousin, cousin is here to accompany you...

Su Jinhua rubbed his hands together in anticipation, and the blood in his body became excited. He tiptoed to the bed and reached out to lift the silk quilt.

The next moment, a violent blow hit his neck and he fainted.

Jiang Wenyu stepped on Su Jinhua's face and gasped silently.

"dirty stuff."

It hurt her hands.

The dirty things will never stop in one day.

She is full of color and courage.

Since you can't control your lower body, it's useless.

Jiang Wenyu put away the knife, groped under the cabinet for a while, took out a black pill, opened Su Jinhua's mouth, and stuffed it in.

Then, she dragged the "body" outside the yard.When Su Jinhua woke up the next day, she would only think that she had had a dream and was completely unaware of the changes in her body.

……

When uncle and others had something to do, they always ordered their servants to pass the news. They did not go to Zhuxi Courtyard in person or ask Jiang Wenyu to go out, so she was left in a state of silence.

On this day, Jiang Wenyu received the land deed and a solid account book sent by Su Jinhua.

She sat on the elegant pavilion with one hand on her temple and flipped through the account book with the other.

Jiang Wenyu occasionally shared the household affairs for Zheng, and she knew something about the account books.

Although the accounting system was kept in line, the account books of the stores under Su Jinhua's name were messy and unclear, which made her eyes sore.

With a bank and two tea shops, Jiang Wenyu remembered that when Su Chengye was handed over to Su Jinhua three years ago, it was still making money, but he never thought that it would be losing money now.

No wonder Su Jinhua was willing to give these three stores to her.

Jiang Wenyu picked up the plum blossom cake in front of her, put it into her mouth, and took a bite. The sweet and glutinous taste filled her mouth, making her feel much better.

"Qinyue."

Qin Yue heard the sound and came over, "My cousin."

Jiang Wenyu pushed the account book in front of him forward: "Organize the account book."

Jiang Wenyu used to treat Qin Yue like a sister. Whatever she learned, Jiang Wenyu would take the trouble to teach Qin Yue as long as Qin Yue was willing.

Jiang Wenyu knew very well what abilities Qin Yue had.

Therefore, Qin Yue pretends to be okay in front of Zheng, but it doesn't work in front of her at all.

Qin Yue looked down and her pupils dilated: "This is not the eldest son...how could it be..."

"Yes, are you happy to let you know the Su Mansion's family business in advance?"

Qin Yue raised her eyes to look at Jiang Wenyu who was eating plum blossom cake with gusto, and asked hesitantly: "Why does the girl trust me so much?"

Even though he knew she was from the Zheng family, he still trusted her

If the suspect is not used, the master and the servant are not of the same mind, so they will be punished, expelled or sold to other families. It is by no means the calm situation now.

Jiang Wenyu fluttered his eyelashes as if he was thinking seriously about Qin Yue's question.

After a long while, she stood up, patted Qin Yue on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "So don't betray my trust in you."

When you don't understand someone, it's easy to feel awe of them.Qin Yue looked at Jiang Wenyu's back, feeling puzzled.

But her life was still in the hands of the other party, so Qin Yue had to bury her head in the hard nut of the ledger.

In the afternoon, the drizzle was misty and misty, like cicada silk.

"Cousin," Qin Yue looked at Jiang Wenyu who was writing in front of the case, "Madam, please go to the front hall."

Jiang asked Yu: "What's the matter?"

Qin Yue said: "It seems something happened to the eldest son."

Jiang Wenyu held an umbrella and went to the front hall. Zheng and Su Qianqian looked sad and did not see Su Chengye.

When Mrs. Zheng saw her coming, she quickly stepped forward: "Yu'er, hurry up and take a look at Jinhua!"

Jiang Wenyu was confused: "What do you think my cousin will do?"

Zheng was speechless and hesitated for a while: "Jin Hua, he seems to be dying."

Jiang Wenyu: "Weren't you still alive yesterday?"

Ms. Zheng found it hard to say: "It's not that I'm going to die, it's that thing... that's not going to work anymore."

Jiang asked Yu: "Which thing?"

Zheng's face turned as red as a monkey's butt, and she gritted her teeth and said, "My lifeblood!"

Jiang Wenyu suddenly realized: "Cousin, he..."

Withered.

 Jiang Wenyu: Life will not be cruel to you, but I will.
