Chapter 116 How many improper books are hidden in the study?
Yuan Wanru raised her eyes and saw his handsome face with long eyebrows. His face was no longer cold and distant as it was in front of outsiders. Instead, his brows exuded a satisfied spring feeling.
Under the high nose bridge, his thin lips were casually curved in an arc, looking at her teasingly.
This person is indeed good-looking.
However, she had the urge to beat him to death.
"How many messy books do you have in your study? Throw them away immediately."
He was such a good and upright young man, what has he become now?
Wherever you kiss, you feel like you're floating in ecstasy. Is it as explicit as in the books?
If he continued to delve deeper, how could she resist?
Lu Jiangnian smiled with great joy: "Confucius said: Those who know it are not as good as those who like it, and those who like it are not as good as those who enjoy it."
"My husband is studying for pleasure. How can you stop him from making progress?"
She couldn't help but reach out and hit him. What kind of person is this? He used his studious spirit for this. Isn't it shameful?
"How dare you bring Confucius into this? How can this kind of thing be compared with the words of the saints? Aren't you afraid that Confucius will come into your dreams and scold you at night?"
He smiled passionately, took her hand and kissed it: "Don't let him come, I just want you to be in my dream, no one else please."
Never mind. That doesn’t make sense.
If she had the chance, she should really go to the study and take a good look at how many improper books this person has hidden.

At five o'clock in the morning, Liu Yan, who was on duty, whispered in front of the dormitory door: "Master, Xuan Qing wants to see you for something urgent."
Lu Jiangnian opened his eyes immediately, his deep eyes were clear and bright, not like someone who had just woken up.
He got up quietly, put on his clothes, and walked out.
"Guard your madam."
Liu Yan lowered her head and replied, "I understand."
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight was silent, and sparse stars dotted the vast dark night. The lanterns in the corridor were still bright. Xuan Qing was waiting outside the door of Mian Yue Pavilion in a green robe. A cool breeze blew, and his face was even colder than the night wind.
Lu Jiangnian's eyes darkened. Xuan Qing took two steps forward and said solemnly, "Rong Shu is dead."
Dead?
He looked at Xuan Qing with a questioning look on his face: "Who killed him?"
Xuan Qing felt a little aggrieved and depressed, so he could only tell the truth: "I don't know."
Lu Jiangnian was very surprised. This answer was beyond his imagination.
Logically, his people should have been keeping a close eye on Rong Shu since he left the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion. How could they kill someone right under their noses?
"Tell me about it."
Xuan Qing couldn't help feeling a little dejected. After following Lu Jiangnian for so many years, this was the first time that he had failed to complete a task well enough.
He said in a frustrated tone: "There are four of us watching him. There was nothing unusual along the way. Rongshu returned to Yunjian Temple and asked the little monk to bandage his wounds."
"He cursed for a long time in the room, then had dinner and went to bed."
"After dinner, no one else entered or left his meditation room."
Xuan Qing paused, and then continued, "At four o'clock in the morning, the little monk went to his room to add water, and found Rong Shu lying on the bed, his body a little stiff."
Lu Jiangnian thought for a moment and said, "So, Rong Shu was probably killed between the second and third watch."
"That's right."
After the incident, they immediately sneaked into the meditation room and checked every place.
What’s strange is that there is no secret door in the Zen room and no one else has ever entered. How did Rongshu die?
Lu Jiangnian asked again: "Have you checked all the food, incense burners, etc?"
Xuan Qing nodded. They would not miss these details.
"There was nothing unusual. No signs of poisoning were found. It looked like he had suddenly fallen asleep."
Fell asleep?
Interesting, Lu Jiangnian has grasped the key point. Could this be another Gu?
However, although he had a skilled doctor by his side, that person did not understand Gu.
He suddenly turned around and looked towards the inner room, wondering if his wife would be interested.
Although the two people did not point it out explicitly, they all knew that one of their wives' secrets was that she understood medicine and poison.
"Have someone report to the police and keep a close eye on Rongshu's body."
"yes."

When Yuan Wanru got up, Lu Jiangnian was already waiting for her in the outer room with a book in his hand to have dinner together.
When she saw him reading a book, her heart skipped a beat. Is this a serious book?
She was about to walk towards the dining table, but she couldn't help but turn around and come to the chair behind the desk by the window, and quietly stood beside him, wanting to find out what was going on.
Lu Jiangnian has sharp senses, so how could he not know what she was doing?
A faint smile flashed in his eyes, and he reached out and pulled the person into his arms. Aunt Pang, Liuzhi and others immediately lowered their heads and dared not look at him again.
Aunt Pang grinned and laughed silently.
It’s almost time. The two masters have been getting closer and closer recently. Is the wedding day far away?
Yuan Wanru was startled by his actions. She looked at the people standing in the room and was so embarrassed that she wanted to struggle. She couldn't treat these people as wooden stakes.
Lu Jiangnian whispered in her ear, "My lady, if you want to read it together, just tell me openly. I will bring back the rare copy that I have treasured for a long time tonight, and we can read it slowly in bed with a candle."
It was so early in the morning and he didn't even let people eat.
Her ears turned red when she heard these words.
"Let go, I won't look at it, and you are not allowed to take it back."
There were other people in the room, and Lu Jiangnian didn't plan to do anything, he just wanted to tease her.
He held her waist with one hand and helped her stand up, then he put down the book in his hand and stood up as well.
"If you don't watch it today, you won't watch it tomorrow, but you will watch it one day."
After the two of them sat down, Lu Jiangnian waved his hand and the rest of the people left. Yuan Wanru ate in silence and ignored Lu Jiangnian.
He was no longer frivolous, and the meal passed peacefully.
After they finished eating, Lu Jiangnian held her hand to stop her from standing up, and told her solemnly: "Rongshu died suddenly this morning for unknown reasons."
Yuan Wanru's eyes widened with shock, and she asked in shock, "Did you kill him?"
He shook his head helplessly, but before he could say anything, she realized that it was impossible for him to have committed homicide.
He was originally planning to play the long game to catch a big fish, so why would he ruin the bait?
"What's going on?"
Lu Jiangnian told the story again, and Yuan Wanru looked at him seriously: "Do you suspect he was poisoned?"
"Well, it's not surprising. Isn't it because grandma was poisoned that she couldn't find anything out?"
"It's just that I don't know if my lady recognizes what kind of Gu can kill people without any signs."
There was no trace of inquiry in his eyes, only pure curiosity.
Yuan Wanru pursed her lips and thought, forget it. Now that she knew medical skills, she had probably already been exposed by him, so there was no need to pretend.
"There are many such Gu. I need to see Rong Shu's body before I can draw a conclusion."
Lu Jiangnian frowned. He thought that he could determine what kind of poison Rong Shu was infected with by asking her, but he didn't expect that she still needed to see it with her own eyes.
The person is dead, how can she, a woman, see it?
If he was frightened, I would be heartbroken for him.
"Forget it, I'll find someone else to take a look. Madam, don't get involved. I'll tell you what I find out."
