After Jiang Mingzhi confirmed again that it was Zhou Suihuan who had appeared in his dream, Lu Yun fell silent.
With a loud bang, lightning flashed across the sky, illuminating everything around. The thunder became more and more frequent. Jiang Mingzhi could not help but open the window. The rain had stopped at some point. Outside, there was thunder and lightning, and strong winds, which made people frightened.
At this moment, thick smoke seemed to be billowing in the distance, appearing and disappearing under the lightning. Lu Yun also frowned, "Why does it smell like something is burning?"
After saying that, he turned around and saw another gust of wind blowing into the room, and the smell of burning became even stronger.
Lu Yun couldn't help but frown: "Whose house is on fire? Why is it in the direction of the palace!"
There was such a severe thunderstorm and lightning today, and there were many century-old trees in the palace. It was not impossible that they were ignited by the lightning.
The Jinyi Marquis' Mansion is also located in the center of Kyoto. If the smell can be smelled here, the fire must be quite big. I don't know if the water dragon team in the palace is enough.
Just a thought flashed through Lu Yun's mind, and Jiang Mingzhi had already closed the window.
"Mr. Lu, it's not our business to worry about whose house is on fire. I want to know what Mr. Lu thinks about the matter of Zhou's sister."
All her dowry was in Lu Yun's hands, but she couldn't take control of it openly. Jiang Mingzhi felt helpless, but she had no choice but to do so.
The fact that Lu Yun took the initiative to find her showed that he had not given up on finding out the truth about Zhou Suihuan's death. If she used Zhou Suihuan's dream as an excuse to indirectly control the people who obeyed her in the past, it would be of great benefit to her gaining a foothold in the Jinyi Marquis Mansion as soon as possible.
She hadn't thought of this before, but now it seems like a very good idea.
Although the original owner's in-laws were also a powerful helper, they were far away in Dongjun, and distant water could not put out a nearby fire. My own former power was in Kyoto, so it would be cheaper to send people, right?
Having made up his mind, Jiang Mingzhi had a plan in mind.
"There's something I want to tell you, but Mr. Lu might find it absurd." Jiang Mingzhi pondered and spoke, "The reason I want to help Sister Zhou is because she has done me a favor."
Lu Yun showed a confused look. He always paid attention to the situation of the people around his former master. He was not in Kyoto some time ago. Could it be that during this period, this Miss Jiang had contact with his former master?
He was still guessing when he heard Jiang Mingzhi continue to speak slowly, "I've been ill for years and have taken countless medicines, but nothing helped. It was Sister Zhou who took pity on me and prayed to the Bodhisattva for mercy, which is why I've recovered."
Lu Yun couldn't help but open his eyes wide. Could he have heard it wrong?
"How can there be such a bizarre thing in this world!"
But after he said this, he shut up.
If the late Zhou Suihuan could appear in Jiang Mingzhi's dreams, what else is impossible?
The most important thing is that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family had been ill for so many years and suddenly recovered. This matter itself is very strange, but if it is really as Miss Jiang said, it makes sense.
Lu Yun was deeply shocked, but he also believed it to about 70%.
Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, as long as Miss Jiang has no bad intentions, he has nothing to doubt. Besides, there is nothing in the Zhou family that can be coveted by others.
With a "clang", there was a sound of something being knocked over in the house. Jiang Mingzhi and Lu Yun were both startled. When Jiang Mingzhi turned around to check the situation, Lu Yun had already hidden himself.
"Miss..."
Walking around the semi-transparent silk embroidery screen, I saw Ping'er had woken up at some point and accidentally knocked over the teacup on the bedside stool.
