Chapter Twenty

"What's the bad luck? I bought this for five thousand taels of silver. Keep it. If someone needs it, I can give it to him for free. But it's too troublesome to move it around, so just leave it here."

If it hadn't been to the point of breaking out, Jiang Yu would have wanted to put the coffin in Jiang's father's house.

Father Jiang's face froze and he immediately shook his head.

"No! This thing is too unlucky! I'll give you five thousand taels to burn this thing cleanly!"

"This is what you said, don't regret it when the time comes. Just give me the money first."

Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at Father Jiang.

Jiang's father didn't hear the implication of Jiang Yu's words at all, and just wanted to deal with this unfortunate thing as soon as possible.

"Burn it quickly! Go and pay the steward five thousand taels of silver yourself."



"Miss, this coffin is the worst I found according to your instructions. It only costs fifty taels of silver. This is the remaining money."

Hong Ting gave the remaining money to Jiang Yu.

"No need, take the money and find someone to find out who the crazy Taoist priest is today."

After Hong Ting left, Jiang Yu returned to her room, took out the torn book in her arms and started studying it.

The crazy Taoist priest must have had other motives for giving her the book.



Two flowers bloom, one on each side.

In the palace, Helianji never bothered Jiang Yu again since he was hit by Jiang Yu's words that day, but he just couldn't let go of it in his heart, and he also knew about her and Yuan Jinghong's affairs.

"How's the check going?"

"This Yuan Jinghong is indeed Yuan Gao's son, but he has been in contact with the prince secretly. I'm afraid he's not as innocent as he appears, and I'm afraid he won't be able to be used by us."

After Ji Chang finished his report, he heard Helian Ji's displeased voice.

"It took so long to find out these things?"

"If you can check these things in one day, Xiaodu is already pretty good. At least he's better than that Grand Master Mu."

Liao Shen defended Ji Chang, but what he said was true.

He Lianji raised his eyes and glanced at Liao Shen thoughtfully before speaking.

"Go and reveal this information to Master Mu."

He did not tell Ji Chang and Liao Shen that he paid attention to Yuan Jinghong because of Jiang Yu, so they still thought that He Lianji wanted to win over Yuan Jinghong.

"yes!"

Ji Chang didn't understand the prince's purpose, but he always obeyed orders.

Liao Shen was different. He was outspoken and said what he had to say directly.

"Tell that Master Mu? He is a treacherous minister, flattering, telling lies, and doing all kinds of evil. He can even kill his own daughter-in-law at any time. He has made such a fuss with his two legitimate sons, and he is not polite to our people.

If you don't take the opportunity to trick him, you still want to help him?"

If He Lianji's identity hadn't been revealed, Liao Shen would have wanted to ask him directly if he had also changed the core, or if there was something wrong with his brain.

"Your Majesty, how about I help you take your pulse again?"

He Lianji raised his eyelids and glanced at Liao Shen coolly.

"If you have nothing to do, just go and find a way to completely remove the poison from this king."

Liao Shen: "..."

Isn't he just helping him think of a solution?!

Ji Chang quickly revealed the news to Taishi Mu.

When Taishi Mu received the news, he was a little unbelievable at first.

When he asked Qin Yuanfan to investigate more carefully, he discovered that Yuan Jinghong was indeed related to the prince, and that he came to visit at the prince's order.

"Father, I went to check. It seems that Yuan Jinghong felt that his father's demotion was related to you, so he had great ill will towards the Mu family. He said he was interested in Yu'er before, and I am afraid he also deliberately wanted to get close to the Mu family.

"

After Qin Yuanfan finished speaking, Master Mu had a complicated look on his face.

When they think about how deep this man's scheming is, if there were no strangers to remind them, they would have fallen into his trap a long time ago.

But this man is the son of a good friend after all.

"Yuan Gao was indeed wrongly accused back then, but if he had not been demoted, his life would have been in danger, and even his family would have been implicated."

He also had troubles to express.

Qin Yuanfan didn't know what Taishi Mu had in mind. What he was thinking about was the stranger who helped them.

"Father, do you know who tipped us off?"

Taishi Mu hesitated for a moment and then said.

"I'm afraid I have to ask Xiao Yu'er about this."

He couldn't think of anyone but him.

Everyone in the world said that he, Mu Ting, was heartless, unscrupulous, and even plotting against his own son. No one would care so much about him.

To remind them so kindly and with such skill, I'm afraid Xiao Yu'er's sweetheart is really no ordinary person.

Qin Yuanfan also thought of what Taishi Mu asked him to investigate, and his expression was solemn.

"Father, do you mean to say that that person only helped because of Xiao Yu'er's sake? My people haven't found out who this person is yet."

"There is no need to investigate further. His subtle reminder is not a shock."

But the more this happened, the more worried Taishi Mu felt.

Xiaoyuer, what kind of person have you provoked?

Helianji had no idea that a wonderful misunderstanding had occurred on Taishi Mu's side.

"What's going on over there with Ji Ru? Have you found out who it is?"

Ji Chang shook his head.

"These days, they have not been close to Ji Ru, and Ji Ru has not made any trouble. They just learn embroidery every day. It is said that they want to make clothes for children."

"Hmph! If you continue to monitor her, I won't believe that she won't reveal any flaws."

Helian Ji still couldn't convince himself that she was the one who was there that night.

Ji Chang wanted to persuade Helianji that no one else could be involved in what happened that day but Ji Ru, but he thought of Helianji's anger in prison that day and still did not speak.

"Your Majesty, if Miss Ru invites you to come over, she says she has something important to tell you."

As soon as the butler's voice sounded outside the door, Helianji's face became even more ugly.

He wanted to see what Ji Ru wanted to do again.

Hearing this, Liao Shen also joined in.

If you don't watch the excitement, you are a bastard.

But after arriving, Liao Shen was locked outside the house.

He Lianji looked at Ji Ru. This woman was just his secret guard, and he would only send her when it was inconvenient for the man to act. However, he did not expect that such a big mistake would be made in letting her enter the palace that day.

"What did you ask me to do?"

"Your Majesty, I want you to help me select some cloth. The clothes I make for my child must not be careless."

Ji Rurou said softly that she also learned the skill of seducing men in the secret guard camp, and she immediately showed it unconsciously.

He Lianji didn't like this at all. When he saw her walking in, he pushed her out with a palm.

"If you are just talking to me about this, then get lost!"

"Of course not! My lord, what I want to say is that in the palace, the daughter-in-law of Jiang Shilang's house saw something that she shouldn't have seen. It's better for me to kill her and silence her!"

Since the prince still doesn't know Jiang Yu, she might as well just silence her.

Ji Ru was worried about being discovered. Every time she fell asleep in the past few days, she would dream. She dreamed that the prince was furious when he found out about the incident and had her executed.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking, Helian Ji would already become furious.

"How dare you!"
