Chapter 271 Entanglement
Jiang Tangtang replanned the space.
The beans were only planted temporarily, and she only needed to clear the vegetable patch. But she planned to plant the tea trees permanently in the space.
Whether it is preparing tea for Lu Shili to go out to sea or for her own use, it is excellent.
And where to find tea trees.
Jiang Tangtang went to the mountains to look for wild tea, but the assassin had just appeared, so it was inevitable that people would be worried if she went to the mountains to look for wild tea at this time.
Jiang Tangtang was just thinking when there was a knock on the door. Jiang Tangtang put away his thoughts and left the space first.
"Madam, the assassins have confessed everything." Yuan San saluted Jiang Tangtang hastily and began to talk about the interrogation.
At the beginning, Xiao Xian and his companions refused to confess, but later they were poisoned by the strange poison prepared by Dou Xian'er and could not even commit suicide. They could only let Yuan San and others manipulate them.
Yuan San has many ways of interrogating people, not to mention Xie Xin, the devil in the interrogation world.
In the end, Xiao Xian and others could no longer hold on and explained clearly the purpose of the Emperor of the Great Zhou instructing them to come to Lingnan.
This was not too far from what Jiang Tangtang had guessed. She didn't dwell on it too much and instead asked about the situation of conquering several people.
Yuan Sandao said: "They are not doing their job well now. Even if they return, they will be punished. Moreover, they have confessed everything and have already betrayed their master. Even if they are released, they will die.
"With the help of our bribes, we have now subdued them all. Madam, you can assign them some less important tasks. We will secretly send people to observe their reactions."
Jiang Tangtang was thinking about finding wild tea trees, so he immediately assigned this task.
"Do we need to dig up the tea trees?" Yuan San said.
"No, tell them to note the location of the tea tree and tell them I want to go and confirm it myself."
"Madam, are you trying to use yourself as bait to test whether they're feigning surrender?" Yuan San thought of the scene that day and said with lingering fear, "There are actually many other ways. Isn't your method too risky?"
Jiang Tangtang realized that he had misunderstood her intentions and did not explain. "I have my own ideas on this matter. Just follow my instructions."
Yuan San didn't dare to say anything more and walked out with his head down.
Jiang Tangtang entered the space again, and this time she went directly to the bookstore.
I plan to look for books on navigation in the bookstore. If there are any, I will copy them down for Lu Shili, hoping they can help them.
When Jiang Tangtang made every effort to prepare for Lu Shili's sailing trip.
Lu Shili also took his men away from Qiongzhou and personally went to various places to select personnel to go to sea.
After Cui Yueling got the news, she immediately packed her bags and chased after him.
Lu Shili was in a hurry to get things done, and he was marching at a rapid pace along the way. Cui Yueling, with her maid and several servants, had no chance of catching up with him.
Not long after leaving Qiongzhou, Cui Yueling lost her partner.
Cui Yueling almost cried in anxiety. She gave up attending the banquet hosted by the Su family and made a desperate attempt to pursue Lu Shili.
But now she has lost her trace and she couldn't attend the flower banquet hosted by the Su family.
"Miss, why don't we write a letter to the eldest master and ask him to find out where the second master Lu is on business. Then we can rush over!"
Chaohua was the maid that Cui Yueling brought from the capital. Seeing that Cui Yueling was about to cry, she became very anxious and hurriedly thought of something.
"Why would I bother you again, big brother?" Cui Yueling said in a low voice. "I've been in Lingnan for so long, but my relationship with the Lu family hasn't improved. Instead, I've made a lot of jokes. Big brother, I'm afraid..."
You must have been dissatisfied with her for a long time!
Chao Hua tried to comfort her, "The eldest son is your biological brother. He wishes you well, so why would he find it troublesome? Besides, it's not Miss's fault. The misunderstanding between the Lu and Cui families is a long-standing one. How can it be resolved with just a few words from Miss? If you had given Miss more time, the outcome would have been different."
With the comfort of her maid, Cui Yueling slowly calmed down and hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to Cui Jun.
On the other hand, Cui Jun did find out a new piece of information.
After learning that Lu Shili was going to lead a team out to sea, he felt that his sister was still lucky.
He quickly sent a letter to Cui Yueling, which stated the location where Lu Shili was going on business, and also asked her to find a way to get pregnant with Lu Shili's child no matter what.
Lu Shili is going out to sea, and once he is at sea, it is unknown whether he can come back.
If their sister could have the other party's blood, the Lu family would definitely treat their sister differently for the sake of the child.
Along with the letter, there was also a packet of medicine powder.
When Cui Yueling saw the medicinal powder her brother had sent her, her face turned red.
She never imagined that Jiang Tangtang, whom she once looked down upon the most and felt that she had brought disgrace upon a daughter of an aristocratic family, would actually use such despicable means to marry Lu Shiyan.
But now, she has to spend the same amount of time just to marry another man.
Although she felt ashamed, Cui Yueling still carefully put the medicine away.
If that doesn't work...
She told herself that if it really didn't work she would try it again.
Cui Yueling was worried about missing Lu Shili, so she didn't dare drink too much water on the way, trying to minimize the delay. Finally, she arrived in Yazhou in the evening of the next day.
After two days of continuous travel, Cui Yueling looked extremely haggard. He didn't even bother to rest and went to look for Lu Shili that night.
At this time, Lu Shili had just selected a team of people to go to the beach to practice swimming.
When he saw Cui Yueling, he didn't say much. He just asked his servants to send her away and strictly ordered her not to come to him again.
"Second Brother Lu, please don't chase me away. Considering that I'm a woman who has traveled such a long way to find you, can you please listen to my explanation first?" Cui Yueling cried bitterly, but unfortunately the man was as hard as iron and was not moved at all.
When Cui Yueling saw that talking about old times didn't work, she finally took out the medicine powder that Cui Jun had prepared for her.
She sent someone to inquire about Lu Shili's daily schedule and soon made a bold plan.
