The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

When Wen Yu returned home, Xiao Ji secretly said to her:

"Girl, someone came to see Hong Xing'er today. She followed her out and always looked back. She seemed afraid that someone was following her. Fortunately, I had arranged for someone to go to the small courtyard at the back. It took a while before he came out. After a while, the second girl came out."

"Yeah. Xiaoji did a good job! I know."

After Li Jiang told her, she asked the waiter who was present at the time to ask. The waiter said: When Prince Yongqing was talking to Miss Yan, a girl who was dining in a private room with him got in the car but did not leave. Stop in front and lift the curtain to take a look!

Under all kinds of stimulation, Wen Huan is about to take risks!

Wen Yu immediately sent Laba to report the news. This time, King Wu’s Courtyard was keeping an eye on him!

At home!

I am waiting……

……

Mrs. Qi came to the store the next day.

Wen Yu told her: "Originally, I was thinking about Zhuzhu after we got married in the future. Now it seems that I have to think of something else."

"Ayu, I'll tell you the truth. Some relatives and friends have mentioned two good ones. But... you see: Zhuzhu is so good-looking, but she has no background. A mother-in-law may marry her son to a daughter-in-law like her. I'm worried about getting into trouble. Even if I reluctantly agree, although Zhuzhu is talented at cooking, she does things too simply. If my mother-in-law doesn't like it, I'm afraid her life will be difficult."

"You're right, I've realized this too!"

"Then let's hurry up. The situation in the store has stabilized, and she doesn't have to be there every day. If not, let her live at my parents' house and play with Huiyi and Yuanyuan."

"That's a good idea! Then I'll make arrangements."

If Yan Zhuruo doesn't live at home, he still has to make arrangements for Lan Zhou...

As soon as Mrs. Qi left, Jiang Pingting came and said, "Let Lan Zhou stay at my house!" After hearing Wen Yu's arrangement, she came up with an idea.

"Let me take another look. Lan Zhou is used to that small courtyard. I don't want to move it for him easily."

"Today is Princess Wu's birthday. I heard that the Queen had some bitter words and she moved to the countryside to take care of it. I guess she can't take care of it for a while."

"That person is really too much. He hangs Wen Huan while looking at Zhuzhu. Shameless!" Wen Yu said bitterly.

"Wen Huan? Do they have this intention?"

"Wen Huan saw you and me... and became competitive! We were talking about a good marriage, but we didn't want it anymore. She has been dating Yongqing County Prince for a long time. She is somewhat capable, and she actually entered that circle. !”

"It's worthless!"

"Pingting, there is something, I..." Wen Yu remembered the past with sadness on his face.

"What can't you tell me!?"

"My mother's death may not be that simple."

"What do you mean..." Jiang Pingting understood immediately. She was not a fool. "What do you want to do?!"

"Now, they still won't let me go! Even the people around me have been bribed to attack me!" Wen Yu sneered.

"That's crazy! Your grandmothers are so smart, how can you let them go crazy?"

"She's just too smart! So she wants everyone and thinks she can get them all!"

"Do you have evidence? Leave it to me!"

"It happened many years ago, and it's long gone. Moreover, I guess that when my grandmother found out, it was already done, and she helped with the aftermath. So, there won't be any evidence. Anyway, greed will prompt them to do evil again!"

"Yes! Especially if you do evil and get benefits but no punishment. If you encounter trouble again, you will take this shortcut. Ha..." Jiang Pingting smiled bitterly, "If you don't look for trouble, trouble will come. Will come to you. Sometimes out of greed, and other times, just because she thinks she can do it..."

"Pingting, how are you?"

"My great-grandson recently... came to my place frequently, so I recruited Xue Ying. My former concubine was pregnant and was attacked by her. So, she was afraid that I would be pregnant, so she added ingredients to the soup."

"This damn woman! What should I do?"

"There are people around me who will see. That day, I returned the soup directly to the kitchen, saying it didn't taste right, and asked the chef to make it again. Then the next day, which happened to be the first day of the new year, I mentioned this when I paid greetings to the Crown Princess. When Xue Ying heard this, she became anxious and lost her temper with me. She asked the Crown Princess to hold her down."

"The Crown Princess is a little confused. She only has a son from her grandson! No matter how important her mother's family is, it is not as important as her son!"

"I'm afraid there are more important things in her heart! Hmm... My father said that the Crown Princess's brother is quite capable. He is well-informed in all aspects and is suspected of selling out. Moreover, those things were approved by the Eastern Palace."

"Oh my god, this is no small matter. The emperor will make sure of it!"

"Yes! I told the news to the grandson, and he knew some of it. He said that it was done during the period when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was in poor health. This is really in line with the saying: Throw a rat into a trap. The Crown Prince is in poor health, and he has a close relationship with the Crown Prince. The Crown Princess is very affectionate, and His Highness the Grand Sun has to hide many things from him."

"But if this continues, the East Palace will be in danger! Last time we went to the hot spring village, wasn't it the one who was having an attack?"

"That time, it's not an attack. Ah Yu, that's... someone who can be cruel."

"Pingting... I got my mother's dowry, got a good marriage, established myself in the capital, we met again, and made good arrangements for my family. Now I have opened a shop, everything is going smoothly! I thought everything would fall into place. I have tidied up the Wen family. Everything is perfect! But I didn’t expect that there is still such a crisis around me..."

"If I enter the Prince's Mansion, I will drag the family into trouble..." Jiang Pingting gently pinned the warm words behind her head. "However, Grandpa is very considerate and can't avoid what he says should come."

"But Xue Ying is so shameless! How can she deserve this status?!"

"Perhaps the Crown Princess thinks that the troubles she made are nothing to worry about."

"But where are we now! From my point of view, she herself is also being protected by the prince!" "Yeah. Smart little girl! She sees things quite clearly!"

Wen Yu said worriedly: "Xue Ying is a quick and easy person. Is there anyone around you?"

"Your Highness said that arrangements have been made, so I can rest assured!"

"Your Highness treats you well?"

"Heh...he is so weird!"

……

The two sisters were chatting in the room, and Li Jiang was hanging around the door. It took him a long time to realize that the beggar was back.

I almost didn't recognize them.

Blue cloth headband, blue cloth shirt.

It looked like he had taken a shower, brushed his beard, trimmed his nails, and changed his open-toe shoes.

Although the clothes are still not that good, they are clean. Well, the jade on my waist is still there.

I shrugged my nose, it finally didn’t stink anymore, no wonder I didn’t notice it right away!

"Where did you get it so clean? Are these clothes stolen?"

The beggar looked at him silently and said nothing.

Li Jiang loved to make a fuss, so he ran back to call Sun Ying. Jin Huan came, and after a while, Yan Zhu came too.

Recently, the store always throws some food for him.

Although he couldn't guarantee three meals a day, he had obviously gained a few pounds and his face looked brighter.

Li Jiang looked at him curiously: "Don't tell me, he looks pretty good. Is he not so stupid anymore? His eyes are rolling!"

Yan Zhu said: "Li Jiang, don't talk nonsense. Well, that's good of you! It would be great if you would help us with some work and not eat for free!"

Li Jiang said: "What can he do?"

"Just now, the chef said that it was windy and rainy yesterday, and the firewood was soaked. It started to smoke when it was burned. I just brought two fruit trees from the warehouse, and they will be chopped. Can you? You must be able to handle the firewood. If I chop it, I’ll give you something delicious!”

The beggar immediately stood up and stood beside Yan Zhu. Yan Zhu said, "Do you understand? Come on then!"

Arriving at the back of the restaurant, Yan Zhu pointed to two sections of dead trees on the ground, "This is it!"

The beggar stepped forward, picked up the ax on the ground, and weighed it in his hand, seemingly dissatisfied. I tried the strength with my hands and was not satisfied either. I saw a whetstone next to me, so I walked over, poured some water on the stone, and started sharpening it.

Li Jiang saw his skillful movements and wondered: "Is it possible that you used to be a woodcutter?"

The beggar ignored him, and Li Jiang continued to ask: "Carpenter? Blacksmith?"

Sun Ying looked at it and curled his lips: "Li Jiang, don't mess with him!"

"what happened?"

"I can't tell! Anyway, be polite!"

"Tch!" Li Jiang refused to accept it and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Sun Ying also left.

Yan Zhu moved a small stool and sat down, resting her chin on her hands, and sighed softly: "I did something wrong, and some of them said..."

The beggar actually looked at her and shook his head slightly.

But Yan Zhu didn't look at him, "Oh, maybe I'm quite stupid! This morning, Mrs. Qi came, and so did the general. It's because I did something wrong. Alas... Mrs. Qi said, let me clean up Let’s go and stay at Cui’s house for a while.”

The beggar disagreed and continued to shake his head.

Yan Zhu said: "Although I like Xiao Yuanyuan, what will Lan Zhou do when I leave? Besides, I really like coming to the store... What a pity, I have to go burn incense!"

The beggar listened carefully and chopped firewood carefully.

Yan Zhu, who didn't have much effort and was still in a daze, heard Li Jiang's cry. When he looked again, he saw that the firewood had been chopped.

Then roughly subdivided five piles, all of the same length.

Every one of them is beautiful.

Even if there were thicker ones on either side, he had them all shaped into the same shape... neatly arranged.

Li Jiang shouted: "This is firewood, used to roast ducks! It's not to make furniture! Why did you do it like this, why are you willing to burn it!? You are really weird!"

Yan Zhu couldn't help laughing.

The beggar looked at her deeply with a tender look on his face...
