Chapter 135 Hesitation leads to failure
Jiang Zhaorong breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, there was good news.
Shi An slammed the table: "Who did you let in?"
The guard lowered his head and trembled: "Sir, I don't know either. He just gave me this ingot and I let him in. As for his identity, I really don't know."
The guard next to him presented the ingot in his hand to Shi An. Shi An rubbed it a few times and said, "Remember the man's appearance and height, right?"
"Remember, remember, that man is a little shorter than me, with a black mole on his eyebrow. From his accent, he doesn't sound like a person from Beijing, but from the northwest."
Perhaps because he was afraid of being tortured, the guard revealed all of Zeng Ju's characteristics, and did not dare to hold back on what they said.
The people beside him drew a picture while listening to his description and showed it to the guards. After the guards had seen it, Shi An waved his hand and asked the guards to post the wanted order.
Shi An's face was terribly gloomy, and he said in a rough voice: "Hurry up and take them away, each of them will receive fifty lashes!"
The guards took the order and quickly dragged the wailing people out.
The hall returned to silence. Shi An suppressed his anger and smiled: "I am sorry to make you laugh. I am really incompetent and unworthy of my position as the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple."
Jiang Zhiyu and Jiang Zhaorong did not speak.
Shi An coughed twice and said, "Since Chunxiu was murdered, this confession is not evidence. Prime Minister Jiang, please do not blame me."
Jiang Zhaorong was not surprised at all when he said this. As early as when Jiang Zhiyu insisted on following him, he had a hunch that this time, it would not work.
He stood up and said goodbye to Shi An.
Jiang Zhaorong left, and Jiang Zhiyu naturally had no need to stay here, so he walked out slowly.
At the gate of Dali Temple, Jiang Zhaorong looked at the endless crowd on the street, heard footsteps behind him, and opened his lips softly: "Zhi Yu, let's talk."
There was no response from behind, Jiang Zhaorong thought she was still angry about that day, and sighed: "You and Shi Wei are sisters, and have been together day and night since childhood. Why do you have to make such a fuss now?"
"You haven't left the house for a few days, but you don't know what people outside have said about the Prime Minister's Mansion. Reputation is so important to a daughter. It's shameful to tell others that there is someone in the house who harms his own sisters. Not to mention Shi Wei, even your reputation and Sulan's will be affected."
Jiang Zhaorong said a lot of things in a rambling manner. When he saw that she didn't respond at first, he thought she had heard it, and the more he talked, the more uneasy he became.
There was no sound of conflict, and even her inner voice was not heard...
Jiang Zhaorong turned his head suddenly, and saw the guard of the Dali Temple standing behind him, looking uneasy.
Jiang Zhaorong: "..."
The guard saw him turn his head, shook his head, and smiled honestly: "Prime Minister Jiang, Lord Shi asked me to take you out."
Jiang Zhaorong looked over his shoulder and looked back, empty, without a single figure.
The guard whispered: "Secretary Jiang walked behind you, and when I raised my head, there was no figure."
So he heard everything he said before?
Jiang Zhaorong pinched his eyebrows, raised his hand to signal him not to follow, went down the steps, and went straight into the carriage.
…
Jiang Zhiyu had seen Jiang Zhaorong standing on the steps a long time ago. Although she could not be restrained by moral bondage, she was afraid that she could not control the impulse to beat Jiang Zhaorong to death, so she chose to turn a blind eye.
It was still early, and she did not want to go back. The sky was clear and cloudless, and the sun shone on Jiang Zhiyu, and she felt warm all over.
When she first traveled through time, because she occupied the body of the original owner, Jiang Zhiyu wanted to save her family and not let them go down the old path.
But the more they got along, the more Jiang Zhiyu felt that there seemed to be a thousand connections between herself and this body.
Perhaps, this connection was the reason why she traveled through time and space?
She sighed lightly, looking at the quaint buildings around her and the people passing by, and then she really felt what it meant to be in another world.
As she was thinking this, she suddenly saw a woman in red in front of her, followed closely by another person. Jiang Zhiyu was very familiar with the two people, Hu Yue and Jiang Kangan.
Jiang Zhiyu: "!!!"
She immediately became energetic, flew up the tree, and stood on the branch looking down at them.
"Miss Hu, what do you want to talk to me about?"
This was the first time that Jiang Kangan was stopped by a woman in the street since his injury. Seeing her so cool, she felt a little fond of her.
Hu Yue was also impulsive. She had been sending people to keep an eye on the prime minister's residence. It was not easy to meet Jiang Kangan going out alone. After the spy reported the news, she couldn't wait to rush out. When Hu Yue came to her senses, she was already standing in front of Jiang Kangan.
Hu Yue rubbed her fingers nervously, "Mr. Jiang, is your injury better?"
Jiang Kangan was slightly stunned, and Jiang Zhiyu on the branch slapped his thigh in anger.
[He's standing in front of you alive and kicking! Isn't this a waste of literature?]
Jiang Kangan: "!!!"
He was really surprised this time. How did he hear Zhiyu's voice?
He looked around, stunned for a moment, and then looked up at the tree.
[Vocal, big brother won't find me, right?]
Jiang Kangan: "..."
He retracted his gaze, pretending that nothing happened, and smiled: "Thank you Miss Hu for your trouble, it's already much better."
"That's good..." Hu Yue blurted out, facing Jiang Kangan's gaze, and slowed down her speech: "I mean..."
She hesitated, looking at Jiang Zhiyu on the tree and getting anxious.
[Come on, girl! Hesitation will lead to defeat! Stand up!]
Jiang Kangan looked at Hu Yue in front of him, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
She wouldn't...
As if she had heard Jiang Zhiyu's inner voice, Hu Yue took a deep breath and made up her mind.
She had already made a mistake once, and no matter what the result was, she would not back down!
She took a step back and bowed to Jiang Kangan: "To be honest, Mr. Jiang, I have been in love with you since you saved me that day. I know you may have forgotten that incident, but that is not important. I just want to tell you that I, admire you."
[Ah! What a good girl. She didn't even tell big brother about what she did before, for fear that big brother would be embarrassed to reject her if he knew.]
What she did before?
Jiang Kangan's eyes were full of confusion. He did remember that he had saved her before, but it had been too long and his memory was already fuzzy. But other than that, they should have had no intersection. Jiang
Kangan looked at Hu Yue, who was nervous and lowered her head and dared not look at him. He sighed and bowed to her: "I am grateful for your kindness, but I have no desire to fall in love with you."
