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

Chapter 323 As it should be
Qi Wu accompanied Wen Yu to the small courtyard belonging to Shuntian Mansion in the south of the city.

Mrs. Li is waiting.

Seeing them coming, he stood up and walked back with Wen Yu: "Things went quite smoothly. Thanks to the manpower you gave me, it wouldn't have been possible without them!"

"I'm very happy to be able to help you. In the end, how was it solved..."

Mrs. Li simply explained the matter, and Wen Yu felt a little strange: "You just let someone like Yang Xiangdong go like this? And you also let him stay with your sister, isn't it dangerous?"

"I have something to hold on to him. Besides, he is a smart man. When the matter was exposed, he did not shirk or quibble. He chose to do it simply and did not show any hatred. He behaved like a man.

I know this is not appropriate...it's just that my little sister is not like me...she shouldn't have to go through this. Furthermore, the children are too young and suffering such a big change will have a great impact on their future. Just like me, actually, I don’t like myself now either…”

The choices people make must have their own reasons, and Wen Yu has no right to interfere: "Wei Xiangyu can't find a more suitable person than him. As for Yang Xiangdong, greed, anger, and ignorance mislead others, and he doesn't know what he can get. ”

When we arrived at the back room, the doors and windows were open, and several corpses were placed on the long board, covered with mats.

"Ayu, are you afraid?" Qi Wu asked Wen Yu.

Wen Yu pulled him, "It's okay, let's take a look!"

Someone opened the mat and Wen Yu saw Wei Xiangyu and could only see her appearance slightly. "Are these servants of the Yang family?"

"One of them should be, and the other three, I don't know where they came from."

After reading it, several people left the house.

Wen Yu asked: "Have you asked Yang Xiangdong what else he has planned?"

"I deceived him, but he denied it. Do you have any other news?" Mrs. Li asked.

Wen Yu said: "The Song family has a rich fortune, and they even donated Uncle Zhongqin. Previously, we got some news that Yang Xiangdong and Wei Shi were planning to seize the Song family's property."

Mrs. Li smiled, "I'm also saying, Yang Xiangdong married Wei Xiangyu, how will he support her? In the past, Wei's clothes were all dressed up, and the Yang family couldn't buy all the property. In recent years, even if his situation is better... But Forget about him, what about the Li family?

The entire imperial court, except for the families who had made outstanding achievements during the founding of the country, took the opportunity to seize many properties. Just like the shop in your hand..."

Mrs. Li looked at Wen Yu funny.

Wen Yu also smiled.

"Other civil servants have extremely limited income. It is not easy to support a family just by salary. Even if there is a chance to be greedy, you have to be careful if you dare to reach out. I made fun of him yesterday, but I didn't think about it. If you really have courage, you need both people and money!”

Wen Yu said seriously: "Actually, he couldn't do it on his own. So, he found the right person somewhere, and the person behind that person was very capable. It is said that measures have been taken against the Song family. But after further investigation, nothing was found.”

"I actually thought about it, so I gave him a nod, but he strongly denied it. If you say so, it is really possible. But, this idiot, seeking skin from a tiger, really made me fall in love with him in vain! I don't even think about it, without Li He's a fool! ? It's just what he wanted. In the end, he was the one who made the plan, and he suffered in vain!"

"Aren't you going to ask him again?"

"I won't believe him. But there are some words that, once they are revealed, are really hard to keep."

"Your sister is also quite scared, right?"

"That fool... still cried over the death of Xiong Qian and his wife! Taking care of family affairs... ugh!" Mrs. Li looked at Wen Yu: "Wen Yu, thank you! If I didn't have your help... I wouldn't have done it... I know what I have to endure. It’s also a warning to us. Things have been going so smoothly these years, and sometimes we feel like we’re drifting off.”

"You don't have to think like this. Mr. Ge has heard about his actions and is very prudent."

"Wen Yu, although I will send people to keep an eye on this matter, I still want to ask you to share some information with me when I'm looking for the person behind it."

"no problem."

"For a young girl like you, you are very stable and very good at what you do. If you need anything done in the future, you can come to me."

"I know."

The two men laughed.

……

Wen Yu returned to the shop and first went to the inn to find Song Shang. He already knew the news.

"There is no news from Mrs. Li. Yang Xiangdong does not admit that he is targeting the Li family."

Song Shang nodded: "It makes sense. I will leave one person to follow Yang Xiangdong to find out the perpetrator and the person behind it."

"Where are Song Tao and Xu Er?"

"Song Tao has been very down-to-earth recently and has not had contact with outsiders. Now, he is busy with my marriage all day long. He has not mentioned when he will leave. It seems that he wants to celebrate the New Year in the capital. Xu Er... is learning bad things. Song Tao knows , but it doesn’t matter.”

Wen Yu analyzed: "Perhaps he wanted to force Xu Erlang to take risks when he had no choice but to take risks."

"Yes, if he can't do it, he will go to his mother and elder brother!"

"Then, are his mother and eldest brother trustworthy?"

"They have found me and told me that they feel that the relationship between Erlang and Song Tao is not normal, but they don't understand what is going on. They asked me to pay more attention." "They are actually smart."

"I understand. If you know that you are a small person, you can't mess around in the game of power. In the end, you will be trapped!"

Wen Yu sneered: "But Yang Xiangdong and Song Tao, they don't think they are little people... they feel like they are great big shots!"

……

"The great big shot" Yang Xiangdong returned home and lived in the front yard for a few days.

After calming down for a while, I personally burned some incense money for Wei Xiangyu.

He also sent someone to write to the Wei family with the news about Wei. As for the reaction of the Wei family, let’s take it one step at a time!

Life is back to its original state...

He thought about it before and after, and finally gave up and contacted the middleman. He said that he didn't want to continue what he had done before, and the money he had delivered and the information he had provided were considered settled. He wouldn't tell anyone, but he didn't offer any more.

He did bring back some news last time, but he didn't have time to give it because he was busy killing his wife.

Li Qun received the news but was a little dissatisfied. Originally, he wanted to dump Yang Xiangdong because he liked the Song family! But later, when Yang Xiangdong wanted to touch the Li family, he was a little tempted.

When cleaning up the Song family, dragging the Li family into trouble was also something that King Wu liked to see.

But now Yang Xiangdong wants to run away and wants to pick it all off. How can it be so easy? What's more, if he wants to show his kindness to the Li family and tell the truth...

It would be boring for the Li family to follow the clues and find themselves here.

……

In the morning, Tan drank tea, basked in the sun, and thought about her own things. These days, she was no longer in the mood to show her kindness, nor was she interested in stirring up trouble.

In the end, the Marquis didn't tell himself about Yue'er. What did he think?
A woman came back and said: "Old lady, there is a girl from the courtyard who married outside a long time ago. She says she is from Zhang Wang's family. She is at the second gate. She wants to come in and say hello to you."

How could Mrs. Tan have time to see her? But I have always been a philanthropic person, so I have to act no matter what, which is really tiring. "Tell her that she understands. I'm fine. If I have something to do now, I'll ask her to come in and talk later."

After a while, the old woman came back again and said: "Madam, she said she has something to do about the back streets. I don't know if it will be useful. I want to come back to you."

Mrs. Tan thought for a moment: "Idle time is idle, let her come in!"

After a while, an old woman with gray hair came in and kowtowed to Mrs. Tan.

"Meet the old lady!"

"I'm sorry, I can't recognize you! Stop being so polite and get up!"

The old woman got up and felt very embarrassed, "Madam, you have been getting to know some noble ladies all day long. The old woman was born as a slave, so it's normal that she doesn't recognize her."

Mrs. Tan smiled, and seeing that there was only one girl beside her who knew her, she asked, "You just said, do you have anything to tell me about the backstreets?"

"Madam, it's like this. The old woman got married and lived in the countryside on weekdays, making a living on three acres of thin farmland. My son found a job in the government's property, so he lived in the back street. I The daughter-in-law has been helping people sew clothes in her spare time. This time the old lady went to the city for a few days. I heard from the daughter-in-law that someone was in the back street asking about your aunt!"

Tan's expression remained unchanged, but her heart was beating wildly.

"Oh? Do you know who it is?"

"I don't know! It's very generous to say that I took action. If you remember something, tell him and get a reward."

"It's been so long. Could it be that my old friend is here to look for..." Mrs. Tan pretended to think.

"Maybe! Otherwise, who would ask about this?" said the woman.

"Yeah, are you talking about it without leaving a name? Should I ask someone to find it?"

"No, no. Besides, I didn't ask anything after hearing about it."

Tan's inner thoughts: Of course there's nothing to be gained by asking. How can I keep this as a clue when I do something? However, this is troublesome, because it means that she doubts my identity.

Somehow, this "she" should be referring to Wen Yu.

Thinking about it, I was shocked: Could it be that the master had revealed something? It shouldn't be...

"That's it, then tell your daughter-in-law to keep an eye on her. If anyone asks again, write it down and report it to Mrs. Zhou of the Second Gate. Let's take a look. If an old relative needs help, I can help now. ”

"Old madam, please be kind. Then the old lady will go back and explain to her daughter-in-law."

"Xing'er, reward!"

The mother-in-law left with a lot of thanks.
