Chapter 31
Jiang Nian put away the manuscript, turned and walked towards Ning Yuezhao.

At this moment, he was still wearing a scarlet official robe, but it set off his whole body as luxurious as jade, the corners of his mouth were habitually raised slightly, his black eyebrows slanted into his temples like the edge of a sword, and his eyes were as clear as stars. with a smile.

Ning Yuezhao watched him get closer and closer, her heart beat faster and faster.

Jiang Nian stopped less than half an arm away from her, and spoke slowly, his voice was as clear as a guqin, "Does Your Highness not know my minister's intentions?"

Ning Yuezhao couldn't help raising her right hand to touch her chest, trying to restrain the rapid heartbeat, she turned her face away, and said in a slightly annoyed tone, "Didn't we agree, this is just a deal?"

"Yup!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Nian admitted her words just like that.

Ning Yuezhao turned her face away, meeting Jiang Nian's half-smile expression.

"You!" She realized that she had been tricked.

"Haha!" Jiang Nian laughed loudly, and retreated to the edge of his seat, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will remember what I said, but please don't forget your promise, Your Highness."

Ning Yuezhao put down his hand on his chest, and he retreated back to the original place freely, but she didn't feel relaxed.

She thought of the empress who was lingering on the sick bed, An Chen who was recuperating in the imperial hospital, and this one in front of her, which didn't make people worry.

When Jiang Nian assisted Ning Yuezhao to handle the scriptures almost, it was time for the climax of the moon again.

When he dragged his exhausted body back to Jiang's Mansion with a pile of manuscripts in his arms, he just wanted to throw himself on the bed and have a good sleep.

But unfortunately, the housekeeper told him that Lin Zhou was waiting for him in his Tingyu Building, and had been waiting since the afternoon until now.

When stepping into the hall of Tingyu Building, Jiang Nian suppressed the restlessness in his heart and cheered up.

"Brother Jiang, you've come!" Linzhou, who had been fidgeting in the hall, saw Jiang Nian, like a drowning man catching driftwood.

"I heard that you have been waiting for me for a long time, and you won't leave until you wait?" Jiang Nian's voice was a little cold, and at this moment he couldn't bring himself to pretend to be as gentle as jade.

After Linzhou was released today by the people from the Governor's Mansion of the Forbidden Army, he hurried home and took a bath with grapefruit leaves, and then came straight to Jiang's Mansion.However, he was told that Jiang Nian was entering the East Palace today, and he did not know when he would come back.

Lin Zhou, who hadn't recovered from the shock in prison, refused to leave without saying anything, and stayed in Jiang's mansion with the cheek.

Jingming brought hot tea to Jiang Nian, "Young Master, please use tea." Then, he changed Linzhou to another cup of tea.

Lin Zhou moved to sit next to him, and said cautiously, "Brother Jiang, I know everything, thanks to you today, otherwise I don't know how long I would have stayed in that horrible place."

Jiang Nian picked up the tea, took a sip and put it down, "You don't need to thank me, I'm helping you too. Are you looking for me in such a hurry just to say thank you?"

Linzhou shook his head, "Of course not, this matter is very strange, I have a guess, but I dare not tell others."

Jiang Nian glanced at him lightly, "Speak."

Linzhou looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Jiang, I suspect that this matter is a bitter scheme directed and acted by An Chen himself."

Jiang Nian narrowed his eyes, "Why do you see that?"

Linzhou said solemnly: "Since An Chen was transferred to Dianzang Pavilion, I have been dozing off almost every day, reading scripts, and he has basically done everything for me."

The corner of Jiang Nian's mouth curled slightly, and he asked back, "Then you should be grateful to him."

Lin Zhou blushed, and said in a daze: "It was like this at first, but I don't feel that way now. I almost slept all day at noon that day, and it was already dark when I woke up. An Chen was copying notes. He Seeing that I was awake, he asked me if I was thirsty, and poured me a glass of water. I drank it without thinking too much, and I didn’t feel much at the time, but after copying my notes for a while, I actually fell asleep again!”

The smile on Jiang Nian's lips deepened, "Isn't this a normal thing?"

"Brother Jiang, I'm serious now!" Linzhou looked at him with some annoyance, "In the past, after I woke up from a nap, I would persist for at least half an hour before I fell sleepy again!"

"Oh." Jiang Nian responded.

Linzhou continued angrily: "But although I'm not very good at learning, I still know a little bit. That kind of drowsiness is a little confused, and it's definitely not normal sleepiness. Then, An Chen advised me to go home and rest. I didn't think too much about it, so I packed up my things and left. However, just as I stepped out of the threshold, my eyes went dark and I lost consciousness."

Jiang Nian said straight to the point: "Sure enough, I only know superficially."

"Brother Jiang! I'm already like this, and you still say that about me!" Linzhou felt aggrieved, "When I woke up again, I was still a little confused, so I walked out based on my feeling, and then I was caught by the forbidden army. "

Jiang Nian pondered for a while, tapping his index finger on the mahogany armrest repeatedly.

Linzhou was still crying over there, "My throat is about to burst. The imperial guards just don't believe what I said, and insisted that you ordered me to harm An Chen. That guy looks innocent and harmless, but he is full of bad things. You counted us all without making a fuss, fortunately Brother Jiang, you are smart!"

Jiang Nian was still deep in thought, what Linzhou said seemed to be completely unknown, with an indifferent expression on his face.

Linzhou approached him, and asked cautiously: "Brother Jiang, you seem to be in a bad mood today?"

Jiang Nian looked at him and twitched the corner of his mouth, "No."

Just now Linzhou was chirping, his mind was full of the panic in Ning Yuezhao's eyes when he approached today.

An Chen has a kind face and a cruel heart, it's not that he has never been taught before.

In the previous life, An Chen also directed and acted in a scene in which he ordered Lin Zhou to poison him.

At that time, the commander of the imperial army was Xiang Hai. After he captured Linzhou, he treated Linzhou with torture without hesitation, and Linzhou was beaten into a trick.

The young and energetic Jiang Nian, no matter how he explained, no one believed him, although in the end, for Jiang Qixi's sake, the matter was let go.But the relationship between Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao was already at odds, which made things worse.

The Queen's condition worsened because she was angry with him for not fighting, and there was another gap between Ning Yuezhao and him.

In this life, because of some of his actions, some things have developed differently.

He has been avoiding direct contact with An Chen. An Chen had no chance to poison him, so he designed him in a self-harm way earlier than in his previous life.

However, the commander of the imperial army was replaced by Zuo Ming, who was upright and upright. Although Linzhou was arrested, he was not sentenced to death.

He lives again, the biggest bargaining chip is not the prophet's past, but more calm and careful than the previous life.

An Chen couldn't figure it out, and he wouldn't let it go, and Ning Yuezhao's feelings for him couldn't be shaken overnight.

Jiang Nian suddenly looked forward to it. When he tore off An Chen's mask, what expression would Ning Yuezhao have?
Stretching his brows and eyes, Jiang Nian picked up the teacup, took a sip of the cool tea, and said to Linzhou, "Don't worry, your grievances these days will not be in vain."

Hearing this, Linzhou folded his hands together and looked at him with admiration, "Brother Jiang, I knew you were the greatest. After you get rid of An Chen, I will submit my resignation letter. I have already figured it out, I am not suitable for you." As an imperial doctor, after this incident, my mother will not force me to stay in the imperial hospital anymore."

Jiang Nian shook his head, "You are really not suitable to stay in Taitai Hospital. When this case is over, you can resign." With An Chen's status in Ning Yuezhao's heart, it is not so easy to overthrow An Chen.

Linzhou didn't understand what he meant, thinking that Jiang Nian was determined to get rid of An Chen.

After the conversation between the two of them, it was already the second watch, and Jiang Nian arranged for Linzhou to rest for a night in the wing of Tingyu Building.

The next day, Jiang Nian went to court as usual.

The latest investigation results on the case of the fire in Dianzang Pavilion of Taiyuan Hospital were also announced at the court meeting.

Jiang Nian's suspicions were cleared, and he made a small splash.

However, Jiang Nian, who was the person involved, still looked indifferent, not surprised by favor or humiliation.

After leaving the court, Jiang Nian didn't have to go to the East Palace to wait today, but was blocked by people sent by Zuo Ming——

"Master Jiang, our Commander-in-Chief Zuo wants to discuss with you about the Dianzang Pavilion fire case."

"Lead the way." Jiang Nian said calmly, if Zuo Ming didn't come to look for him, he would go there too.

Zuo Ming is very serious about his work, and he knows it from the fact that he is not superstitious about torture.Yesterday Jiang Nian pointed out some suspicious points for him, and he spent almost all night investigating.

Therefore, when Jiang Nian arrived at the Governor's Mansion of the Forbidden Army, Zuo Ming had just come down from the ruins of Dianzang Pavilion.

Zuo Ming's eyes were obviously black and blue. Seeing that Jiang Nian seemed to have a tired face, he immediately felt a lot more balanced.

"Jiang Zhuangyuan, I have a few doubts and I still can't figure it out. I hope you can give me some pointers." Zuo Ming sincerely asked for advice.

Jiang Nian smiled, "It's too much advice, it's okay to discuss it with Commander Zuo."

Zuo Ming didn't talk nonsense anymore, turned away from the left and right, and said to Jiang Nian: "Linzhou is in prison, and he said that An Chen drugged him, and insisted that it was a bitter trick directed and acted by An Chen."

"It's been so long since the incident happened, it's impossible to find out whether Linzhou has been drugged or not, but I believe that Linzhou has a pure and straightforward mind, and he is not a person who will make random accusations." Jiang Nian paused, There was an inscrutable smile on the corner of his mouth, "As for whether it was directed and acted by An Yuyi, it depends on the investigation results of Commander Zuo."

Zuo Ming shook his head, "I have checked the medication records of the Tai Hospital, and An Chen has not prescribed rosin as medicine recently."

"How many ounces of rosin can I use for a prescription?" Jiang Nian asked back, "The effect of igniting the fire is probably not as good as pulling a few books from the bookshelf and stacking them as firewood!"

"I also thought of this, so I immediately sent someone to the pharmacy to check, and found that last month's medicinal material procurement records, a large amount of rosin was purchased, and this month, the recorded amount of rosin was not enough Used to start fires. But I sent someone to check the stock of rosin and found that all the rosin was gone.”

Jiang Nian frowned slightly, "Have you found out who stole the rosin?"

There are limited people who can use the medicinal materials in the pharmacy, and you can know who it is after a little research.

Zuo Ming said: "Medical Supervisor Wei Ji."

 The update is here, let everyone wait for a long time.
