Chapter 219: The Bad Man and the Evil Woman, the Perfect Match
Yu Shengsheng curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and without stopping, she and Jin Baobao turned through the Moon Gate.
The two looked at each other and listened to the report from the other side.
Madam Su shouted, "Why are you so flustered? How could something go wrong in the Rongguo Mansion?"
I just saw my brother this morning, everything was fine, what could be the problem?
"It was because of the hot spring in Zhuangzi outside the city that two people were forced to death."
Madam Su was stunned. "What do you mean by 'forced to death'? They were the ones who wanted to die, but wasn't the matter settled long ago? We have compensated them with money, and even found them a grave with good feng shui for them to be buried in."
"For some reason, the two families came to file a complaint again, and now they have arrived in Jingzhao Prefecture!"
Madam Su was a little panicked: "And you even alerted the Jingzhao Prefecture? This is really absurd. Shouldn't this kind of trivial matter be handled by the county government?"
If it was the county government, I could just pass on a message and at most give a few dozen taels, but this time it was Jingzhao Prefecture...
Wu Lian'er reminded: "Madam, why don't you consult the general? For such an important matter, the general still has to make the decision."
Madam Su nodded repeatedly: "Where is the general?"
"Maybe... at Ruan Jing's place."
Mrs. Su's face froze again: "Go and invite him!"
After hearing this, Yu Shengsheng walked away quietly.
I see.
She knew nothing about the past of the Rongguo Mansion. When she came to Beijing, the Rongguo Mansion was no longer alive, and she had never been there.
I never thought that this would happen.
Back in the yard, Yu Shengsheng was feeding the black chickens while thinking.
Jin Baobao was thinking about the "fist" theory that Hei Bai had told her. If someone hit him, he would take that person's life.
I didn't realize that Hei Bai could be so ruthless with such a smile on his face.
Jin Baobao felt that he had to learn.
Just as she was daydreaming, Yu Shengsheng called her, "Baobao, come here."
"Miss, what can I do for you?" Jin Baobao's brain turned, "Shall I go and cause some trouble for the Duke Rong's Mansion?"
Yu Shengsheng nodded: "Those two people came here to complain suddenly, there must be a reason, you go and ask around and see if you can find out the reason."
"Also," Yu Shengsheng lowered his voice, "please find out how many sons there are in the Rongguo Mansion, and who is the person that the eldest son Cheng Ziheng hates the most and dislikes the most."
Jin Baobao silently noted: "Miss, is there anything else?"
"Cheng Ziheng has a mistress who is pregnant. See if you can find out where she lives. If you can, tell her the news."
"What news?"
"Duke Rong's Mansion and the Su family want to form an alliance."
Jin Baobao's eyes suddenly widened, his little face tensed, and he figured out some things in an instant.
Yu Shengsheng didn't tell her before why Madam Su suddenly wanted to poison her, but now when she mentioned the marriage, she suddenly understood.
"God damn it, do they have any shame? They want to take advantage of my young lady's marriage. I..."
Yu Shengsheng held her arm and said, "I didn't tell you because I was afraid you couldn't bear it. Leopard, we have to be patient and lie dormant. Only when we strike at the critical moment can we deliver the most painful and cruel move."
Jin Baobao gritted his teeth, his eyes red: "Miss, I remember it."
Yu Shengsheng was the only one left in the yard. She stroked the black chicken's feathers and lowered her eyes in deep thought.
Suddenly she heard the sound of a wheelchair. She looked up and saw Su Zhiyi coming alone, not far away from her.
"You've always been so annoying, coming here uninvited." Yu Shengsheng said nonchalantly.
Su Zhiyi was not annoyed: "I didn't intend to make you like me. The two of us were destined to be incompatible since birth."
Yu Shengsheng sneered: "Who wants to fight you right from birth? Don't take yourself too seriously. If your mother wasn't crazy, would you be worthy?"
“Stealing someone else’s life, no matter how glamorous it is, is still stealing.”
Su Zhiyi's face changed slightly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes: "I earned my honor by myself, not by stealing! Even if I didn't exchange with you, I could still stand out."
"I came to you not to talk nonsense with you, but to tell you that Qi Mubai..."
As she spoke, she stared at Yu Shengsheng, trying to see the nervousness, confusion, reluctance and jealousy on that face that made her jealous.
But Yu Shengsheng didn't even raise her head, and seemed to be more interested in the black chicken than Qi Mubai.
"Qi Mubai has been arrested. I heard he is suspected of patricide," Su Zhiyi said slowly, "If he is really convicted, he won't be able to get out."
"Forget the title of No. 1 scholar. If you are assigned an official position, you may even lose your life."
Yu Shengsheng remained indifferent.
Su Zhiyi narrowed her eyes and rolled the wheelchair forward: "Yu Shengsheng, don't pretend that you don't care."
Yu Shengsheng patted the chicken head and looked at her with his eyelids raised: "Qi Mubai is your fiancé, what do I care about?"
"I feel disgusted when I mention this person's name. Actually, you two are a perfect match," Yu Shengsheng said with undisguised contempt in her eyes. "One is hypocritical and mean, while the other is heartless and vicious."
Su Zhiyi's face turned pale, and Yu Shengsheng was impatient: "Why did you come to me? Just to talk about Qi Mubai? Or do you want to provoke me, so that I can't help but run around to plead for him, and finally let you cry and act pitiful, and then cancel the marriage and put the blame on me?"
"You're thinking wrong. Even if he were to be beheaded in the street the next moment, I wouldn't even blink an eye. If others were to say anything, they would only say you're a jinx."
"You!" Su Zhiyi was angry, his eyebrows twitching.
She had indeed come up with this idea, thinking that once she mentioned Qi Mubai's misfortune, Yu Shengsheng would be unable to resist taking action, but she didn't expect...
"Oh, what kind of good person are you who values friendship and loyalty?"
"Of course I am, but I'm not a slut. If someone is insincere to me and I treat them with sincerity, that's not loyalty, that's stupidity."
Su Zhiyi simply couldn't believe how Yu Shengsheng could be so sharp-tongued and clear-headed.
Suddenly, she smiled again: "Qi Mubai, you don't care, but what about Zhuo Ge'er?"
Yu Shengsheng's hand, which was gently stroking the chicken's head, paused slightly.
Su Zhiyi said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you, he ran away two days ago and hasn't come back since. I don't know where he went."
Yu Shengsheng raised her eyes to look at her, her eyes calm, and Su Zhiyi smiled even more deeply: "He is still so young, nothing should happen to him, right? But, who in the Su family would care about him? A child whose grandmother died and who has no relatives anymore is really pitiful."
Yu Shengsheng said nothing, but nodded Hei Ji's head: "General Hei, go!"
The black chicken moved upon hearing this, the hair on its neck stood up, and it spread its wings and rushed towards Su Zhiyi.
"Ah!" Su Zhiyi's scream echoed throughout the yard.
…
Hao Mengye strode into Zhenqiao Tower and knocked on Fu Qingyin's door.
"Commander-in-chief, Jingzhao Prefecture has accepted the case, and the censors have also received the news. They are preparing to impeach Cheng Zhaoping at the court tomorrow."
Fu Qingyin was practicing calligraphy, and paused when he heard this: "Is this matter worth reporting to me?"
After saying that, he tore off the top sheet and crumpled it into a ball.
Hao Mengye looked a little stern, and Hei Bai poked his head in.
"Master, that manor is great. I heard that soaking in the hot springs is good for your health. How about giving it to me as a reward?"
Hao Mengye frowned: "Have you made such a great contribution? Do you still want Zhuangzi?"
Hei Bai blinked: "Now that you have no merit, you can pick up the merit."
