This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 618
After Chu Yue left, Wen Ruyan stayed out of the mansion until noon and then went out too.

Governor's Palace.

After Liu Shiru handed all the account books that Bai Wangzhi sent to him to Wen Ruyan, he said respectfully, "Your Highness, the evidence is conclusive now, when shall we do it?"

Wen Ruyan picked up the account book and looked at it carefully for a long time, then said: "Then, have you found out where the remaining 70 taels of silver went?"

Liu Shiru chuckled lightly, and said, "The 70 taels of silver have already been converted into bank notes by Bai Wangzhi, and they must have distributed them now."

Wen Ruyan frowned slightly, and said, "A bank note? There is still such a bank in Jingzhou that can afford 70 taels of silver?"

Liu Shiru smiled wryly: "Your Highness, don't look at the mess in Jingzhou now, but since ancient times, those who are rich get richer, and those who don't have money get poorer. That bank has been taken care of by Bai Wang for many years. Ten thousand taels of silver is really nothing to them."

Wen Ruyan's eyes tightened, and he said, "Send someone to keep an eye on that bank, and I'm sure we'll find a lot of unexpected things by then."

"The guilty minister has already arranged the manpower. The bank is surrounded by all my people at this moment. All you need is an order from His Highness, and no one there can escape."

Hearing what he said, Wen Ruyan looked at him curiously.

To be honest, Wen Ruyan was really surprised by Liu Shiru's methods. He didn't need to arrange many things at all. The other party had already made preparations in advance, but it was really amazing.

But Wen Ruyan turned around and thought about it, how could it be easy for someone who can sit in this position for decades?
It's just that this old guy is really timid. Being in this barren land, he was afraid of accidentally offending those Beijing officials, so he didn't dare to intervene in some matters at all, and watched Jingzhou become a mess in Bai Wang's hands. This is the situation now.

If it wasn't for Wen Ruyan standing behind him to support him this time, he would still dare not do anything.

"Have the soldiers and horses in each town been arranged?" Wen Ruyan asked again.

"I guess it will take a day. After all, it is not a trivial matter to mobilize troops to leave Jingzhou. Bai Wangzhi has controlled Jingzhou City for many years. If he uses troops with great fanfare, he may not be able to hide it from his eyes."

Wen Ruyan nodded, and said: "It's better to be more cautious. After the soldiers and horses in all villages and towns are arranged properly, they will take everyone down in one fell swoop. Since we have done it, we might as well make it bigger!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Liu Shiru hurriedly cupped his hands and said.

Now he really admires Wen Ruyan's courage. At first, he thought that His Highness Prince Jing just wanted to clean up the officialdom in Jingzhou City, but who would have thought that he planned to clean it up from top to bottom?
Such a big move is simple to say, but in fact there is no room for the slightest mistake in the process. If the news is leaked during the implementation process, the next thing to face is the counterattack of all of them.

Like their crimes are serious enough anyway, once they are caught, it will be a dead end. Under such circumstances, who would obediently let them be arrested?
It's not for nothing that Bai Wangzhi stayed in Jingzhou for so many years, and it's not because of the strong wind that those country gentry and rich people can have their current social status.

Jingzhou City.

On the second floor of a restaurant, a young man in brocade clothes was sitting by the window, holding a girl in his arms, enjoying the girl's gentle feeding of wine, at this moment, a servant suddenly came up, came He said in front of him: "My lord, the little lady of the Chu family has entered the city."

Hearing this, Mr. Feng stood up straight, pushed the girl in his arms away, and asked eagerly, "Are you sure you saw clearly? Is it that little bitch Chu Yue?"

The servant said with certainty: "It's true that she is right. Although she took a carriage, she went to the silk shop with the maid beside her after entering the city. The villain was afraid of making a mistake, so she pretended to be a customer and went in to take a look. , she is absolutely right!"

"Where is she now?"

"I went to Yang's house."

Mr. Feng sneered, and said: "I remember that there seems to be a girl from the member of the Chu family who drove to the Yang family. I think the little bitch went to find her aunt. God help me. If the little bitch stays here all the time The Chu family, I really have nothing to do with her, huh, but who would have thought that she would enter the city on her own initiative, listen to me, you should quickly find someone to keep an eye on the Yang family, as soon as that little bitch comes out, report back immediately I."

The boy said with a smile, "If you go back to your son, the villain has already arranged for someone."

Mr. Feng stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder with admiration, then went straight downstairs.

Yang family.

In the gazebo in the backyard.

Chu Yue sat beside the fence, with her head resting on her arms, and she stared blankly at the scenery in front of her.

In the middle of the gazebo, a middle-aged woman skillfully brewed a pot of tea, then looked at Chu Yue and cursed with a smile: "You girl, you used to make tea for my aunt and me, but today is good, let you come to my house Once, I have to serve you myself."

When she said this, Chu Yue immediately came back to her senses, and quickly laughed and said, "I'm sorry, aunt."

The woman poured a cup of tea, then picked it up and walked to Chu Yue and handed it to Chu Yue, then sat down beside her, and asked with a smile: "Looking at how you look like you are out of the dormitory, since you entered the gate of my house, It’s just that you simply said hello to your uncle and stopped talking, and you didn’t take the initiative to talk to me when you came to the backyard. This is not your temper. Tell me, what happened to make my little niece Has it become what it is now?"

Holding the cup, Chu Yue looked down at the steaming tea, then shook her head and said, "It's nothing."

"It's nothing. My aunt watched you grow up. How can my aunt not understand what kind of temperament you are? My feelings are written on my face. Tell me, what happened?"

Chu Yue hesitated to speak, and swallowed the words again, but she didn't know how to speak.

But she couldn't say it, the little maid standing outside the gazebo didn't have any scruples, and said directly: "It's not because my uncle made the lady unhappy."

"Huh?" Hearing what the little maid said, the aunt was suddenly surprised.She looked at Chu Yue, but who knew that Chu Yue didn't refute what the little maid said.

Surprised, my aunt immediately leaned into Chu Yue's ear and asked in an inconceivable whisper, "The one who married into your house? But didn't he marry you in a fake marriage?"

The relationship between my aunt and Chu Yue has always been very good. How could Chu Yue's marriage be hidden from her?

"Hey, aunt, don't ask." Chu Yue said suddenly upset.

The aunt glanced at her, and then turned her head to the outside of the gazebo and said: "You all step back first."

"Yes."

After the maids outside the gazebo left, the aunt finally put the cup in Chu Yue's hand on the table, and then took her hand and said, "I won't ask you if you don't want me to? You don't know that my aunt Are you worried about you? What can't you say to your aunt? Your mother's aunt also knows that there are some things you can't tell her, but you can tell your aunt. "

Hearing what she said, Chu Yue glanced at her first, and then heaved a long sigh.

Her aunt has loved her very much since she was a child, and she has kept many secrets from her childhood, and she has never kept her aunt from her. Although it is a bit difficult to tell about this matter now, Chu Yue really wants to find someone to talk to her, This feeling is like a fishbone stuck in the throat, if I don't spit it out, I'm afraid I'm going to get sick.

After thinking about it for a long time, Chu Yue sighed and told her aunt all about it.

And after listening to her, the aunt's face was already full of shock.

"You mean you really like that fake husband? And that fake husband has already been engaged?"

Chu Yue nodded.

There was a wry smile on the corner of the aunt's mouth immediately: "No wonder you became what you are now. Listening to you, that fake uncle is quite capable, and he can make you favor him. Then what are you going to do about this matter?" How to deal with it?"

Chu Yue shook her head in distress, and said, "I don't know."

After saying this, she changed her words and said at that time: "That girl is also very difficult. She traveled thousands of miles to find him alone. I will not fight with her for anything. Forget it, let him go. Time will tell." Dilute everything."

The aunt took Chu Yue's hand, patted it lightly twice, and then sighed, "I still don't understand your temperament. It's the first time you fell in love with a man in so many years, but you encountered such a thing, not to mention How can feelings be as simple as you said? It's easy to like someone, but it's as difficult as heaven to forget someone."

Hearing what my aunt said, Chu Yue's lips became wavy at that time. She slowly fell into her aunt's arms, hugged her waist and said, "But what else can I do?"

The aunt patted her on the back, and said helplessly: "If you look at it from the perspective of an elder, I naturally hope that you will cut off this relationship. After all, how could the daughter of my Chu family suffer such grievances?" ?The identity of that person is just a son of a down and out family. If my Chu family didn’t take care of him, he might starve to death sometime. With such an identity, he is not worthy of you, let alone he still has a marriage contract.”

After saying this, my aunt sighed helplessly again: "But if you think about it from your point of view, it's rare for you to like a man. If you have to be forced to let go, it's not a kind of love for you." cruel?"

The aunt and nephew fell into a moment of silence.

After a while, my aunt seemed to think of something suddenly, and asked, "No, after talking so much, you still haven't said whether that person likes you or not? Does he have you in his heart?"

When asked by her aunt, Chu Yue froze there, speechless for most of the day.

The aunt looked at her in surprise and said, "You don't even know this, do you?"

Chu Yue's small mouth couldn't help but pouted again.

"Oh, you girl."

Chu Yue shook her head and said, "Whether he has me in his heart or not, this relationship is over."

"Have you decided?"

"I made a decision!"

"Oh, silly girl." The aunt lightly patted the back of Chu Yue who was lying in her arms, and said, "Emotions are always selfish."

Having said that, the aunt paused for a moment, then put her arms around Chu Yue's shoulders and said, "You are kind by nature, of course I know, but kindness must have a limit, haven't you ever thought about it, if you give up this time? So, what if you won’t meet a man who makes your heart beat again in the next time?”

Chu Yue immediately froze there.

Of course, what the aunt said has her reasons. Chu Yue has lived for so long, and Wen Ruyan is the first man who can make her heart flutter. If she gives up now, what will happen in the future?What if you really can't meet them?

Who is Wen Ruyan?

Chu Yue thought about it carefully, this person was completely delusional.

Originally, she was just a refugee who couldn't afford to eat, but her martial arts were still so good. Wen Ruyan helped her solve the troubles she encountered in helping the victims that day.

Afterwards, the two got married in a fake manner, only to find out that this person is actually proficient in arithmetic, and the accountant who has been in his home for several years is far inferior to him.

That's fine, she was invited out that day, and when faced with the embarrassment of Miss Situ, this person even directly took out an unheard of word to help her ease the embarrassment.

In fact, that's all for nothing, at most Chu Yue would look at him with admiration, but after that, the two of them were in the same room for such a long time, whether it was the man's conversation or his daily handling, Chu Yue would let Chu Yue Yue admired it.

This is how feelings are developed step by step. Throughout the time she has known Wen Ruyan to the present, the other's actions have made her unable to find anything to criticize.

Getting along with such a man brings a little more joy that I never had before.

Chu Yue knew very well that with him, she lived a very relaxed life without any troubles. With him, she was indeed happier than before.

And that day, when two people were in danger in Liujia Village, Wen Ruyan ran away so far with her on his back, with dozens of people chasing after him, but Wen Ruyan never thought of letting her go, leaving her behind. .

How can this sense of security be given by others?

Feelings are not something that is built up overnight, and there is naturally a reason why Chu Yue fell in love with Wen Ruyan.

Just like what her aunt said, if she gives up at this time, what if she doesn't meet such a man in the future?

With Wen Ruyan's lessons learned, she will inevitably compare him with other people in the future, but how can this be compared?
Seeing that Chu Yue was stunned, the aunt went on to say helplessly: "As you said, it was really not easy for that girl to travel thousands of miles alone to find him, but just because of this, you should give up the feelings in your heart." ? He is unmarried, and you are unmarried, why should you think so much?"

Chu Yue asked blankly: "Do you want me to fight?"

The aunt shook her head and said, "I don't want you to fight for anything, I just want you to look directly into your heart, no matter what you do now, just don't regret it in the future."

Chu Yue immediately stayed there, as if lost in thought.
"But he doesn't necessarily like me."
