Chapter 95 Demon Possessed

Jiang Zhaorong stared at her coldly, a fierce look suddenly appeared between his eyebrows, and he gritted his teeth: "Do you really think that the Jinyiwei are just here to eat?!"

The old lady didn't agree in her heart. She was still afraid before, but now the second prince who had become a monk has returned, and the monks have started to move around. Didn't the emperor say anything?

Besides, there is only one monk staying in the mansion now, and the Jinyiwei group has not come to find him!

The old lady lowered her eyes. Compared with worrying about the Jinyiwei, she was more worried about Jiang Zhiyu who was possessed by a demon.

"Haven't you heard recently? It's said that Zhiyu is very young, but she has great medical skills and can cure any disease. She also has great martial arts skills!"

The old lady looked at him with grief and sorrow: "It's okay for others, but we have watched Zhiyu grow up since she was a child. Don't we know her character like a mirror?"

Jiang Zhaorong's eyes moved and he pretended to be stupid.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the old lady thought he was moved by her words, so she got off the bed, sat on a stool away from him, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

"Son, mother doesn't mean anything, it's just that the third girl has been behaving so abnormally recently, mother is suspicious..."

She paused, her eyes mysterious, and whispered: "Mother is suspicious, the third girl is possessed by a demon!"

Jiang Zhaorong clenched his hands under his sleeves and glanced at the people serving in the room. The maids all lowered their heads. After a moment of shock, Jiang Zhaorong withdrew his gaze.

The old lady was completely unaware and continued, "Look, have we had a peaceful day in the Xiangfu these days? Your second brother was imprisoned, and Heng was sent away."

She was overwhelmed with grief and shed a few tears, then wiped them away with her hands: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Mother also knows that you have resentment in your heart, so let Jianjin stay in that prison for a while, but this monster must be eliminated!"

Jiang Zhaorong suddenly realized that the old lady thought that Jiang Jianjin was not dead now because she was soft-hearted and saved him, but she didn't know that the real reason was that Gao's adulterer had not been found yet.

She was still thinking about taking Jiang Jianjin back from prison after she calmed down.

Jiang Zhaorong just thought it was ridiculous.

She and the adulterer were no longer related by blood, so what qualifications did he have to be her brother? !

There is also a demon...

Jiang Zhaorong frowned slightly: "Zhiyu is not a demon! She is the first female official of Tianqi appointed by the emperor: Hanlin Academy Shishu. If she makes irresponsible remarks on the officials appointed by the court, she will be punished with caning."

The old lady was not intimidated by Jiang Zhaorong's tough tone. Even though Jiang Zhaorong's respect for her is not as good as before, the old lady still thinks that he is the filial son who will do whatever she says, even if he has complaints.

So she took a sip of tea and no longer used the tone of negotiation before, but a tone similar to command: "It's just a monk. Now that the second prince is back, there are so many monks on the street, isn't it okay? The demon is in the mansion, and the Jiang family will be destroyed by her long ago. Think about it yourself!"

She put down the teacup heavily with an ugly look.

Jiang Zhaorong took a deep breath and his expression relaxed a little.

The old lady was delighted and was about to speak when he shouted, "How dare you! How dare you serve me!"

The maids knelt down immediately and the old lady was stunned.

Jiang Zhaorong was furious, "You are too spoiled. You don't even know who you are. You dare to bring up the gods and ghosts in front of me! You stir up the relationship between the ancestors and grandchildren. I think it's better to sell all these evil servants!"

The maids begged for mercy. It took the old lady

a long time to react after he pointed out something wrong with her: "What did you say they did? It was me..."

Jiang Zhaorong did not give her a chance to speak, and interrupted her: "From now on, no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion can mention the word 'monster'!" The old lady was still full of surprise and confusion, but she heard a gentle voice from outside: "What monster?" Along with the sound of footsteps, Yiqiao opened the bead curtain, and Xu Youran walked in slowly. The old lady's eyebrows suddenly sank. The veins on Jiang Zhaorong's forehead were still throbbing, and when he saw Xu Youran, he forced a smile: "Why is Madam here?" Since Du entered the mansion, Xu Youran has never come to Shouxi Hall to greet the old lady again. As the saying goes, no one comes to see you for no reason. The old lady looked at the account book held by the maid behind her and her heart skipped a beat. Xu Youran glanced at Jiang Zhaorong and her eyes fell on the old lady: "I checked the accounts these days and found that there are a few accounts that I can't put together. There is no record of their whereabouts in the account book, so I thought of asking the old lady if she knows anything." The old lady snorted coldly and didn't answer. Jiang Zhaorong coughed dryly: "What account, how much silver?" Xu Youran looked at him again and did not answer, but said: "I heard you mention some monster from a distance just now? What's the matter?" Jiang Zhaorong stepped forward and stretched out his hand to hug her, but Xu Youran dodged him. Jiang Zhaorong laughed dryly: "It's nothing. It's just that mother has been worrying too much these days and has been haunted by nightmares. She was instigated by these shameless people, so she talked nonsense." Xu Youran looked at him suspiciously: "Really? Why did I hear Zhiyu's name?" Jiang Zhaorong's smile froze, and the old lady also tensed up. "No, you heard wrong." Jiang Zhaorong laughed dryly and brought the subject back: "How much has the account been deviated?" Even if Xu Youran's family was in decline, it should not be underestimated. If she heard that the old lady suspected that Zhiyu was a monster and wanted to invite monks to catch the monster, who knows what would happen. Fortunately, she just saw it and quickly covered it up. The old lady was also very lucky. She was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. She dared to yell in front of Jiang Zhaorong because she believed that he would not do anything to her and would obey her. In the past, Xu Youran was respectful in front of her, even if he was not weak and could be bullied. But since she saw another side of Xu Youran last time, she developed a fear of Xu Youran in her heart. Xu Youran's eyes were full of suspicion and scrutiny. She winked at Yi Qiao, then took the account book from the maid behind her and chuckled, "This manor, and there are three hundred taels of silver, who did you give it to?" The old lady's eyes shifted, and she pretended to be calm, not showing any guilt. Jiang Zhaorong took the account book and took a look, and frowned. The account book was in the old lady's hand before, Jiang Zhaorong said softly, "Old lady..."

"How should I know?" She spoke loudly and quickly. After seeing the looks in Jiang Zhaorong and Xu Youran's eyes, she swallowed and slowed down her voice: "I can't understand the account book. Usually, I ask Jianjin to help me."

Jiang Zhaorong bit his back teeth and said: "Even if he can't understand it, he should have mentioned it to you."
