Chapter 79 But He Is My Husband
In the carriage of the Northern Prince's Palace.
Xie Ruojiao, who was wearing a goose yellow dress, looked at Jiang Rong and said with a smile:
"Sister-in-law, the Sushan in Zhenxiulou is especially delicious, you must try it!"
Ever since Jiang Rong saved her at the last Qingfeng Poetry Festival, Xie Ruojiao's impression of her has changed.
Recently, the Jiang family held a funeral. Jiang Rong lost her two brothers at once. Thinking that Jiang Rong must be very sad, Xie Ruojiao decided to accompany her to have some fun and relax.
So yesterday I booked a table at Zhenxiu Restaurant and invited my brother and sister-in-law to dinner.
The accompanying Feicui smiled and said, "The Second Miss came to find the Crown Prince on purpose to ask about the Crown Prince's wife's food preferences. When she learned that the Crown Prince's wife liked iced drinks, she chose a table of Sushan Banquet."
"Thank you, second sister. It's thoughtful of me." Jiang Rong smiled and nodded.
Xie Ruojiao was a little embarrassed, "I... I heard that you haven't had a good appetite recently... You... You should be more open-minded... My brother is a good person, if you want, you can treat him as your brother!"
Xie Lingxi, who was sitting in the main seat, glanced at his sister in disbelief, his expression indescribable.
Xiao Nanxing, who was accompanying him, tried hard to hold back his laughter.
Second Miss, this is comforting. You lost two brothers, so I will give my brothers to you...
Good boy, my husband has become my brother, and suddenly it’s taboo!
Even though Jiang Rong was well-informed, he was still slightly stunned for a moment before he reminded her in confusion:
"But he... is my husband..."
Is it possible that a husband and wife are not suitable to be siblings?
"That's it... well... one person can do multiple things. He can be your husband, and he can also be your brother... what do you think? Isn't it a good deal?" Xie Ruojiao's mind was very confused, but the main idea was that she must comfort her sister-in-law and give her a brother!
It’s definitely right to comfort yourself by making up for what you lack!
Jiang Rong looked at Xie Lingxi in confusion, then at Xie Ruojiao, "It sounds like a good deal... but it's a little weird."
"Don't worry about these details. In short, my brother is with you and will never let you suffer any grievances!" Xie Ruojiao continued to comfort her.
Jiang Rong saw the silent expression on the face of the man next to him and couldn't help but burst out laughing:
"Well, what the second sister said makes sense."
Although the logic is messy, the second sister's conclusion is very correct!
With the prince accompanying her, she will never suffer any grievances!
Xie Ruojiao felt better when she saw Jiang Rong smile after she comforted her.
I would say, give my sister-in-law whatever she lacks, and it will definitely comfort her.
The family of three happily walked into the Tingxue Pavilion box.
Just walked in...
Xie Ruojiao saw the jade hairpin and handkerchief on the ground and asked, "What is this?"
Feicui stepped forward, picked up the jade hairpin and handkerchief, and presented them:
"There is a short poem on this handkerchief, and the name Dong Xiqin is embroidered on it... The word Linglong is engraved on this jade hairpin. It is made of top-grade jadeite and is very valuable..."
"Who is this person? How come the things she lost are in Tingxue Pavilion? This place is not open to external parties..." Xie Ruojiao was puzzled.
Xiao Nanxing immediately said, "Second Miss, this woman is not a good person. Last time, she deliberately let the prince appreciate the painting in order to humiliate him!"
"She is the legitimate daughter of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion. The rising stars of the Four Great Generals have always been at odds with our Northern Prince's Mansion... but most of the time they only confront each other in the court. Only the Yongning Marquis's Mansion would resort to such mean tricks in private!"
Xie Ruojiao understood the analysis of the position, and suddenly realized it, and then she became furious:
"No wonder their family ranks last among the four great generals. Even their methods are so inferior! They even want to frame me for stealing!"
"Ah? What do you mean by stealing?" Xiao Nanxing was puzzled.
"Look, she deliberately threw a jade hairpin worth a fortune into our Tingxue Pavilion. Then she reported the case to the police, saying that the thing was missing. If she finds it in Tingxue Pavilion by then, I will have no way to defend myself! She is so insidious!" Xie Ruojiao said angrily.
The Tingxue Pavilion in the Zhenxiu Building has always been used by the prince.
Xie Ruojiao only comes here a few times a year.
Dong Xiqin really didn't expect that the person who booked the table was actually Xie Ruojiao.
"So that's how it is! Then I'll throw it out right away!" Xiao Nanxing agreed deeply and quickly walked to the window.
Jiang Rong immediately stopped him, "Wait, since Dong Xiqin set up a trap to harm my second sister, she must have been on guard against us destroying the evidence. Maybe there are people watching us outside, watching us throw things."
Xie Lingxi saw these three people talking to each other and felt that something was wrong.
At this time, Jingzhe stepped forward and said:
"Master, there are indeed some suspicious people near Tingxue Pavilion, they are suspected to be spies."
"Sister-in-law is wise!" Xie Ruojiao looked at Jiang Rong with admiration:
"Sister-in-law, you're so good at predicting things! This villain from the Dong family is really eyeing us!"
Xiao Nanxing asked nervously, "Then how should we deal with the stolen goods? I'm afraid Dong Xiqin has already reported it to the police, and soon soldiers will come to seal off Zhenxiu Tower and search it!"
"I just saw Captain Chu from the Mingxin Division in the lobby..." Jiang Rong thought for a moment and immediately came up with an idea: "Let's go report the case."
"Ah? But... we don't have any evidence..." Xie Ruojiao asked puzzledly.
They just speculated that Dong Xiqin wanted to frame someone, but they had no evidence, so how could they report the case?
Moreover, does Mingxin Si handle such small cases?
"We reported the case and found traces of the fugitive here. This is the only thing left in the house..." Jiang Rong was familiar with the situation and once again brought up the fugitive as an excuse.
Xie Ruojiao was shocked. Is this possible? I have learned something new!
I don't know why, but I always feel that my sister-in-law's words are very familiar.
Xie Lingxi wanted to laugh. It was the same trick again.
However, the trick doesn't have to be old, as long as it works well.
Dong Xiqin is behaving suspiciously, so we should send her to the Mingxin Division to investigate thoroughly.
"I'll report to the authorities right away!" Xiao Nanxing was afraid that wasting time would allow the Dong family's scheme to succeed, so he rushed out like a gust of wind.
…
With Chu Jue's status, he could naturally be arranged an elegant room.
But he just likes to sit among the crowd to eat and listen to all kinds of news...
"Congratulations, boss, you've solved another strange case!" The subordinates toasted one after another.
Chu Jue had just solved a case in which the Jiang brothers murdered each other, and he had made a great contribution.
"Not worth mentioning." Chu Jue waved his hands proudly. This simple case is not difficult at all.
The evidence is now in my hands, and this is God letting me uphold justice.
"Captain Chu! Just now, my master went upstairs to eat, and we saw a dark shadow jump out of the window... He looked a bit like a fugitive wanted by Mingxin Division." Xiao Nanxing strode up to Chu Jue and said:
"Then we found a jade hairpin and a handkerchief in the house. I wonder if they were stolen goods left behind by the fugitives..."
"What!" Chu Jue's eyes lit up, "Take me over to have a look!"
