My husband is a traitor

Chapter 137 Human Nature, Conscience
At this moment the door opened.

Jiang Linlang immediately looked at Rong Jue in a panic, but the latter only thought for a moment, then pulled her and hid under the bed.

Jiang Linlang: "..." A very uncreative place.

But she should be glad that he didn't drag her into the closet!

Because, the first thing Gu Shengchang did when he came in was to go to the closet, as if he was looking for clothes.

"Ade, has anyone been here?" Jiang Linlang was silent for a while after listening to the other side, and then Gu Shengchang suddenly asked Ade in a low voice.

Jiang Linlang froze, but Rong Jue pressed her hand, and the two of them could only stick tightly to each other under the narrow bed.

very uncomfortable.

But Rong Jue held his breath, and lightly patted Jiang Linlang's nervous hand, signaling her not to get nervous and make a sound.

In the next moment, Jiang Linlang's heart ached!

Because she saw a pair of black boots stopped by the bed, and then a hand stretched out.

She tightly closed her eyes, hugged Rong Jue's arm tightly, her heart was about to jump out.

Rong Jue's eyes were slightly calm, and he didn't respond to Jiang Linlang's behavior.

It can be seen that there is also some tension.

Just that hand, just picking up a silver needle...

Silver Needle!

Jiang Linlang slightly opened one eye, and when she saw the silver needle, she was extremely nervous.

Just now she thought she was very witty and picked up those hidden weapons, but why...

Damn, she must have accidentally left it behind when Rong Jue dragged her to hide under the bed.

Sure enough, Gu Shengchang took a deep breath, and immediately turned around and went to the inner room after the boy said no.

The dull and subtle sound of the mechanism sounded.

Rong Jue pursed his lips, pulled Jiang Linlang, kicked the ground, and the two slid out from under the bed.

Immediately, they looked at the window, raised their hands and pulled it up, and the two turned over and jumped from the high window.

They should be lucky, is there a moat under a window in Gu Shengchang's bedroom...

Jiang Linlang closed her eyes, bit her lips tightly and hugged Rong Jue's arm, felt the whistling wind blowing against her cheeks, and felt the constant falling stimulation.

Teeth chattered.

Fortunately, Rong Jue's martial arts are world-class, and her master opened up his meridians, so when he landed, he was safe and sound.

"What to do, he must know that someone has broken in...Will he suspect us?" Jiang Linlang followed Rong Jue and ran along the moat. When they reached a safe place, a small path, she couldn't help but worry. asked.

Rong Jue took out a ledger from his pocket, threw it to Jiang Linlang, stopped in his tracks, and smiled slightly, "Whether he suspects us or not, at least he still thinks his most secret things No one has found it yet."

Jiang Linlang, who didn't enter the secret room, was puzzled by his words, just opened the ledger, and after seeing it clearly, her face was shocked, "This is..."

"It's just his old way of concealing suspicion." Rong Jue glanced at the night clothes on his body, took them off a few times, and then shook them into powder with one palm.

While Jiang Linlang was dumbfounded, she said sarcastically, "It's just that he's so cunning, it's going to be difficult for him to visit Duke Huguo's mansion at night."

It's a pity that there is not enough time, he only read one letter.

Not without regret.

Jiang Linlang didn't understand, she just held the account book and thought a lot, "Then what should I do next?"

Rong Jue squinted at her, "Find out what to do by yourself."

Jiang Linlang: "..."

It's like I'm alone!

Prime Minister, you entered the secret room alone, okay?

"In my opinion, since he knows that someone is visiting his bedroom at night, and you just took this ledger, it's better to follow the plan. Anyway, in their eyes, I'm just a small character who can't make any big waves—I'm in the Ming Dynasty, You are in the dark, I pretend to present this account book to the emperor, then Gu Shengchang will know that it is the Duke Protector's mansion that I visited at night, so I will dispel my doubts about you."

Jiang Linlang saw that Rong Jue was silent and did not object, so she continued, "Look, a suspicious person like him has been fighting with you for so many years, so he understands your style. If you got this ledger , will definitely continue to be silent, waiting for the opportunity to kill with one blow. So, at this time, I got the account book and wanted to send him a high score...he would not think that it was your handwriting. What do you think?"

Like a child expecting an adult's opinion or appreciation, she blinked her eyes a few times and asked cautiously.

Rong Jue suddenly laughed, twitched the corners of his mouth mockingly, stretched out his big hand, and patted Jiang Linlang's head in a gentle manner. In fact, he had wanted to do this action for a long time, but it was because of his temper and face. .

"It's a bit long-winded, but it's barely smart."

It is appreciated.

Jiang Linlang: "..." Thank you boss for your affirmation, I will make persistent efforts ==
The two of them walked on the deserted street, detoured around, and somehow ended up on the street of Li's Mansion.

Jiang Linlang smelled a burning smell from afar, and her complexion changed, and she walked forward involuntarily following the smell.

After many onlookers who were awakened in the middle of the night, she saw the corpses being carried out one after another, and where the white cloth could not cover them, the frightening corners of the charred bones were exposed.

"What a crime..."

"Who says it's not? Hey, this Li Wancai has done a lot of immoral things on weekdays. Look, retribution!"

"Evil will be rewarded with evil, there are not many good people here!"

"You can't say that, there are still a few good servants and maids, hey, committing crimes."

Her eyes trembled slightly, listening to the common people's discussion, she sniffed slightly, but her heart was still uncomfortable.

"Has his wife and children been sent away?"

Rong Jue said kindly, and then added, "Li Wancai doesn't deserve your sympathy."

Knowing that a catastrophe might be imminent, he only sent away his wife and children and the two concubines whom he usually cared about. The other concubines, servants and concubines, including the housekeeper, all suffered this disaster because of his indifference.

Jiang Linlang nodded slightly, and said in a helpless tone, "I know."

But she still couldn't bear it, life was being ruthlessly killed before her eyes.

Li Wancai is not worthy of sympathy, and even these people were silenced because he was involved in it back then.

He only sent away his wife and children, but put the entire Li Mansion, these servants, in danger.

This Li Wancai deserves to die too.

"Human nature is like this." Rong Jue saw what she was thinking, just glanced at the chaotic scene indifferently, and was about to leave, "Why be sentimental."

If it was him, he would do the same.

Jiang Linlang glanced silently, sighed slightly, then turned around and followed Rong Jue's footsteps.

Of course she knew what Rong Jue meant, she was not cruel enough, she would only face more such scenes in the future and feel guilty.

But selfishly continue to pursue the truth.

Human nature, probably really is like this, she even hated her hypocritical conscience for a moment.
