After the house was confiscated, I relied on billions of dollars in supplies to become a group favor

Before Jia Yue finished speaking, he realized something again. He glanced sideways at his friend and said apologetically: "Let the city lord handle this matter. We will discuss other situations later."

From Jia Yue's casual words, it can be seen that he has a close relationship with the city lord and is already a close friend who can interrupt and joke at will.

He smiled gently, but his narrow eyes were as calm as dead water, making people's hearts skip a beat as they looked at him and dared not have any thoughts of contempt.

As soon as Jia Yue finished speaking, he paused and then spoke again, deliberately asking: "But... I'm also curious. Yuecheng has never seen Wendan fruit in all these years, let alone Wendan tree species. How did Mrs. Mu get this batch of Wendan fruits to sell to Shopkeeper Qiu?"

Hearing this unclear inquiry, Ruan He frowned, and regained his calm expression for a moment. He raised his head and met Jia Yue's gentle and smiling eyes. He did not pay attention to him and lowered his head. Lower your eyes.

Anyway, it's not the Lord of the City who's asking, why should she bother with an irrelevant person? Besides...she really doesn't know this person, and she doesn't know his origins. She would be wrong if she said anything.

A more important reason is that even if Wen Danguo's origins are not very frank, she can only give a perfunctory explanation at random. She cannot explain it too reasonably, otherwise she will not attract the attention of Shopkeeper Qiu. Suspect.

Jia Yue didn't seem annoyed by Ruan He's neglect. He smiled gently and looked at her frankly, wanting to wait for a reply.

The city lord nodded after hearing his friend's words, looked up at Ruan He, and spoke with a majestic and resonant voice.

"Not to mention that they are curious, I am also curious about where this Wen Dan comes from. Ruan He, please tell everyone."

"Returning to the city lord, I found this Wendan tree in the mountains behind the exile village. We went to Tongzhou on the way to exile and saw a Wendan tree in Tongzhou, so we recognized it at a glance... I immediately picked up the Wendan tree. They were transplanted back to our yard and planted, and batch after batch of Wendan fruits were produced..."

Ruan He had already thought about what he said last night. Although it was not very reasonable, it was still not satisfactory. The advantage was that he was calm and confident, and did not reveal any panic in his words, which was enough. Persuade people.

The city lord did not show the slightest suspicion, but continued her words and then asked in an unclear way: "According to your words, did you get this Wendan fruit by chance?"

Repeated questioning is an extremely effective way to detect lies. If a liar is asked repeated questions many times while feeling guilty, his psychological defenses will be broken down and he will panic and speak incoherently.

For Ruan He, who has always been calm and composed, repeated inquiries did not have much of a deterrent effect. She curled her lips and smiled lightly, and responded warmly: "Yes, Lord City Lord, the Wenwendan tree species is still there. Planted in my yard, and...there are many treasures in the mountains and forests, and I even dug wild ginseng in the mountains."

In order to prove the reliability of his words, Ruan He also brought a wild ginseng over in advance as a basis for his nonsense.Naturally, she took this wild ginseng out from the space, but in order to fool this group of people, there was no harm in taking it out and using it. No one would think of it in her own space anyway.

While talking, Ruan He also took out the prepared Wendan fruit from the bag he carried with him, glanced at Shopkeeper Qiu who was standing stiffly aside, and said calmly: "As I told Shopkeeper Qiu last time, I He just didn't believe the Wendan tree species I accidentally encountered in the forest, and there was nothing I could do about it. If I were to say that I was lucky enough to dig up an old wild ginseng in the forest, he probably wouldn't believe it either."

These few fluttering words were enough to convince people. Upon hearing this call, Shopkeeper Qiu's panicked expression became paler. He was afraid that Ruan He would settle accounts with him, so he had to look at it uneasily. He did not dare to speak casually without the permission of the Lord of the City.

Ruan He curled his lips, showing a bit of magnanimity in his calm expression, and said quite comfortably: "Your Majesty, City Lord, since Shopkeeper Qiu doesn't have any bad intentions, I don't blame him, everything is up to the City Lord's decision. "

When she said these words, she made it clear that she did not intend to hold Shopkeeper Qiu accountable. Xiao Liuzi, who was tied aside and frightened, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. Shopkeeper Qiu's expression froze slightly, and he seemed to have no intention of holding him accountable. Understand what Ruan He means.

The city lord's Leng Su calm gaze moved back and forth between them for a little while, nodded silently, and said solemnly: "According to the laws of Yue City, no matter what, Qiu Zhangyuan, your behavior is indeed inappropriate... but it seems that there is no malice. Since the Qimu family has no intention of pursuing any further prosecution, I will spare you this time, and you will discuss the matter of apology and compensation in private, and I will no longer interfere."

The city lord has been able to maintain the stability of Yue City for a long time. Naturally, he knows how to act appropriately. He also understands that Ruan He intends to settle the matter, so he immediately goes along with the flow and returns the matter to the Mu family to handle. He only acts as a backer, using Mu's family to bluff others.

After saying that, the city lord's eyes showed a bit of appreciation and fell on Ruan He below. He had never noticed it before. Today, he found that Mrs. Mu was thoughtful and generous. She was a powerful person. This woman clearly regards the City Lord's Mansion as her support, but she still makes it hard for people to find fault with her.

Not only Mrs. Mu, but her husband Mu Yunxiao is also a taciturn and calm person. Before he was exiled, he was also a famous general in the imperial court. Looking at this period of time alone, he is not considered a treasonous person... …There may be some misunderstanding here…

If given the opportunity, he wouldn't mind training the couple. After all... he is a person who cherishes talents and loves talents, and he doesn't want such talents to be reduced to ordinary villagers in the village.

As soon as the Lord of the City finished speaking, the cold sweat on Shopkeeper Qiu's back suddenly fell down, as if he breathed a sigh of relief. The big stone that had been hanging in his heart since he just stepped into the Lord's Mansion was finally relieved. It fell silently.

Faced with Ruan He's open-mindedness, shopkeeper Qiu didn't know how to respond... What he regretted was that after this trip, the cooperation between him and Ruan He should be completely over.

Shopkeeper Qiu naturally regretted having lost a partner who was backed by the City Lord's Mansion, and the current situation was irreversible. (End of chapter)
