Chapter 14 The Cuckolded Prince (4)
In the following month, Jiang Cheng not only did not calm down, but became even worse, because he found that he had overdrawn two hundred taels from the accounting office last month, and he did not pay it back this month, and the accounting office did not come to ask him for it.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng felt that the last division of the family was just a formality. Mu Yan was his biological brother, and what belonged to him was what belonged to his biological brother.
The division of the family is only for outsiders to see, the internal structure remains the same as before.
He had been spending money so freely these days that he had long forgotten the ambitious plan he had made at the wedding.
All day long, with beauties, fine wine, and a lot of money to spend, how can I spare the time to do anything tiring?
In the two months since Wen got married, she has been living a better life than when she was still a boudoir resident, and she has become a lot rounder than when she first got married.
I love Jiang Cheng to the core.
In the past two months, Muyan used the original owner's private money to travel all over the capital.
When you are free, take a look at the sweet life of the Jiang Cheng couple.
That day, Muyan was preparing to have lunch at Tianyi Hall. She had nothing to do, so she asked Maruzi to live broadcast what the two people were doing.
The scene switches to the room, where two people are hugging each other with their clothes half-undressed.
Muyan watched it for two months and felt like vomiting. She quickly asked Wanzi to turn off the screen and took a look at the dishes that were served.
For the first time, she lost her appetite and didn't eat a single bite. She packed up the food and took it back to the palace.
Muyan returned to the palace and restored the accounts that he had previously concealed with magic.
When he got off work in the evening, the accountant checked the accounts. He checked them five times and thought he was dazzled. He had not even noticed that eight hundred taels had been spent.
The next morning, the accountant took the account book and hurried to Liu's room.
When Liu saw that Jiang Cheng had spent eight hundred taels in the account, she became furious and immediately sent someone to call Jiang Cheng and his wife to her room.
In the end, Liu gave Jiang Cheng two choices: one was to pay back the money, and the other was to report to the authorities.
How could Jiang Cheng have the money to pay back? He knelt on the ground and begged Liu to forgive him this time.
Liu knew that he was hoping for a lucky break and thought that she would let him go like before.
But this time she was firm and refused to give in.
Wen Shi couldn't bear to see Jiang Cheng being sent to the government, so she had to take out part of her dowry to pay back the money for Jiang Cheng.
The two returned to the room, and Jiang Cheng swore to Wen that he would definitely return her dowry in the future.
Wen naturally believed him.
The next morning, before Jiang Cheng went out, he confidently boasted to Wen that he would be promoted to the position of Langzhong in the Ministry of Personnel during this period, and his monthly salary would more than double.
Wen watched Jiang Cheng leave with a happy look on her face.
At noon, Jiang Cheng invited the Minister of Personnel to dinner and asked him about his promotion, but was told that someone had already taken his place.
The doctor apologized to him and left without eating a single bite of the meal Jiang Cheng had invited him to.
Jiang Cheng had previously promised that if he could help him get the position of Langzhong in the Ministry of Personnel, he would give him 100 taels of gold as a reward.
But a few days ago, on his way home, he met a masked man in black who pushed him against the wall with a knife and told him to leave his official position to Liu Jia Dalang, otherwise he would depose him.
Just because the man easily pinned him to the wall, he didn't dare to underestimate him.
In the end, in order to save his life, he had no choice but to agree.
After nightfall, in the Liu family study,
Muyan teleported to Liu Jia Dalang's study.
When Liu Dalang saw Mu Yan, he excitedly went forward to hug him, but Mu Yan waved him away.
"My benefactor, I have really been promoted to doctor today," Liu Dalang was waved away, but his excitement remained undiminished.
Mu Yan ignored his excitement and said calmly, "I have done what I promised you. If you cannot do what you promised me, you should know the consequences."
Liu Dalang nodded repeatedly, "My benefactor, don't worry. I will tell my father tomorrow morning to turn down the Sun family's marriage proposal with my younger sister, and then convince my father not to ask my younger sister to find a husband for the next six months."
After Liu Dalang finished speaking, he could no longer suppress the doubts in his heart and simply asked, "My benefactor, why don't you let my little sister not find a husband for half a year?"
In fact, he wanted to ask more whether he liked his younger sister, but he had something to do in the past six months and was not convenient to propose marriage, so he came up with this idea, but he was afraid that asking too directly would make him unhappy.
Mu Yan glanced at him and said coldly, "This is not something you should know." Then, with a knife, she knocked Liu Dalang unconscious.
Muyan teleported back to her room. According to the original owner's memory, in another month and a half, the Liu family girl's childhood sweetheart would be taking an exam.
The test results are usually known in half a month, which means that two months later, her childhood sweetheart will be the top scorer.
By then, Liu's parents would no longer dare to look down on him for his humble background, and the two of them would finally become a couple, which could be considered as compensation for her.
As for why she looked for Liu Dalang, Mu Yan could only say that she liked him more.
He has loved the girl from the Liu family since she was a child. Helping him would not only make the girl happy, but also avoid her marriage with the Sun family.
More importantly, it made Jiang Cheng’s long-cherished wish come to nothing.
Why not do something that can kill three birds with one stone?
Half a month later, Jiang Cheng returned to his yard with a sad face.
As soon as I walked in, I saw a table full of delicious food, and Wen, who was sitting beside the table with a gentle look.
Seeing that Jiang Cheng had lost some weight recently, Wen asked the kitchen to prepare a table of delicious food today, and she also dressed up.
"Husband, you are back. You must be tired. Sit down and let me massage your shoulders."
Wen took Jiang Cheng's hand and sat down, massaging his shoulders.
Jiang Cheng seemed to have been struck by bad luck in the past half month, and nothing went smoothly.
The books had been sorted out the night before, but they were in such a mess that they were impossible to read the next day. They happened to be seen by the Shangshu who came to inspect.
He almost couldn't even keep this seventh-rank official position.
Jiang Cheng remembered what the Shangshu said before he left, "If it weren't for the prince's face, you wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of this government office."
He slowly clenched his hands on his legs into fists.
One day, he will let everyone know that he, Jiang Cheng, is no worse than Jiang An.
Jiang Cheng was not doing well outside, but he was very lucky to have Wen Shi with him at home.
Wen stood behind him and couldn't see the expression on Jiang Cheng's face at the moment, but she felt Jiang Cheng's tense shoulders relax.
She came up from behind and put her arms around Jiang Cheng's neck, her cheek against his profile. "Husband, how's the promotion you mentioned earlier going?"
The Wen family prepared all this today, firstly to reward Jiang Cheng, and secondly to ask him about the promotion he mentioned before.
It had been half a month since his last promotion, and Wen had been thinking about asking him about it today.
Jiang Cheng's expression, which had just relaxed, suddenly turned cold again, "What do you mean?" his voice was cold and hard.
Wen was taken aback by his cold attitude. Fearing that he would be angry, she hurriedly explained with a smile, "What can I mean by that? I just heard you mention the promotion a while ago, and now that I remember it, I just wanted to ask."
Jiang Cheng's heart, which had originally calmed down, began to become irritated again when he heard her asking about promotion.
He pried Wen's hand away and stood up from the chair. "Don't bother yourself with what's going on outside. I'll be promoted sooner or later. I'm tired, so I'm going to rest first."
Wen looked at Jiang Cheng who left without looking back, feeling sad and worried.
Jiang Cheng had never been so cold to her before. Wen Shi remembered what he said and guessed that it might be because of the failure in promotion.
The next morning, she sent Jiang Cheng away and returned to her parents' home with her maid.
