Chapter 111 Obtaining the Xu Family Account Book
Xiao Yu was extremely angry and hit Chen Yingyu with her palms.
"It's because of you that I have a daughter like you!"
Chen Yingyu naturally wouldn't endure this in vain. She pinched Xiao Yu's arm and said, "I don't want a mother like you who has an affair with her brother-in-law either!!"
The mother and daughter almost came to a fight.
The princess asked the eunuchs to separate the people, and then looked at Xu Shibing who was pretending to be dead.
She sneered in her heart:
There is not a single good person in the Xu Mansion. The reason why Jing Yang is so good is because she didn't grow up in the Xu Mansion!
"I will inform His Majesty of this matter and he will handle it. As for Chen Yingyu, he will be temporarily detained."
"You two go back first."
After the princess left, Xu Shibing completely collapsed on the ground. He could almost foresee the scene in the court tomorrow...
Xu Shibin closed his eyes and thought of Yu Shi again. He glared at Yu Shi and said, "Go back home first!"
The eunuch took Chen Yingyu and Qingya away.
Xiao Yu opened her mouth and her eyes were red.
On the other hand, the eldest princess still asked the imperial physician to check Yu's pulse. Yu's condition today did not look normal at all.
Away from Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu, and comforted by a few friendly ladies, Yu seemed to have calmed down a little, staring straight ahead, not knowing what she was thinking.
The imperial physician felt the pulse, his brows furrowed tightly as he said, "Madam Xu's body..."
Yu's eyes were light and casual, "You say."
Imperial Physician: "Madam Xu, have you been taking any medicinal herbs for a long time? Judging from her pulse, she is weak and dreamy, with occasional strong pulses... Madam Xu seems to have been poisoned by Lian Mazi."
Yu: “What did you say???”
"This medicine is often used in prescriptions for calming the nerves, but if the dosage is too high, it can have an invisible killing effect. It starts with mental confusion and hallucinations, followed by occasional manic episodes that may lead to self-harm, and ultimately, accidental death."
After he finished speaking, the whole audience fell silent for a moment.
Yu looked at her hands and suddenly burst into laughter: "So you had planned to kill me all along..."

Jiang Yunzheng followed the eunuch to Xiao Ling's courtyard.
When Xiao Ling fell into the lake, he was bitten by a water snake in the lake. No one noticed it when he first got ashore, but his lips began to turn purple as soon as he was sent to the yard.
Fortunately, the imperial physician discovered the situation in time and removed most of the remaining poison. When Jiang Yunzheng came, he used acupuncture to force out the remaining toxins and prescribed some medicine.
Only after Xiao Ling woke up did Emperor Jingming and the Crown Prince feel relieved.
The noises of Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu were also heard. No one in the courtyard dared to speak. Emperor Jingming's face showed concern: "Madam Hu Ning and the county lady are extremely audacious and have evil intentions. They do whatever they want in the imperial manor and disrespect the emperor's grace. They are unworthy of receiving the title. Therefore, they are stripped of their titles and demoted to commoners."
In the room, Jiang Yunzheng picked up the medicine box with an expressionless face and prepared to leave.
There is an imperial physician guarding this place, so it is impossible for Jiang Yunzheng to be guarding it all the time.
Jiang Yunzheng had made another contribution today, and the Crown Prince was about to send someone to escort Jiang Yunzheng away, but Jiang Yunzheng politely declined: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I'm busy today, so I won't bother you."
The prince did not force it and had Jiang Yunzheng escorted out of the imperial farm.
When Jiang Yunzheng walked back to the lake, she looked towards Qi Zhenzhen's yard.
With Qi Yunshen guarding Qi Zhenzhen, Jiang Yunzheng felt relieved.
Wu Yu was already waiting for her in the carriage, "Young Madam."
Jiang Yunzheng quickly got on the carriage: "Hurry, go over first."
Shortly after Jiang Yunzheng left, Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu also left the imperial farm.
The set of account books lost by the Chengzhou prefect was evidence of corruption in the Xu family.
Since it is an account book, there cannot be only one set.
Last night, Jiang Yunzheng thought about it all night and decided that Xu Shibing would probably have one too.
This is exactly what Yu Zheng has been looking for.
Today is the birthday banquet for the emperor's eldest grandson. Xu Shibing has left the Xu Mansion. Yu and Xiao Yu are not here. Xu Suyuan is recuperating in the yard in poor health. Xu Jiashu is still being held in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Today is the best time to go to Xu Mansion.
Early in the morning, Hou Yue disguised herself and went to Xu's house.
The black-glazed carriage stopped at the intersection closest to Xu's residence in Shengyefang.
Jiang Yunzheng sat in the carriage, she lowered her eyes and played with the amulet.
This set of account books concerns the life and death of the Xu family. Xu Shibing must have sent people to guard it strictly. Once Hou Yue succeeds, he will inevitably be tracked. Jiang Yunzheng was worried that Hou Yue could not fight against four people with two fists, so she brought Wu Yu with her.
When going to Xu's house to get something, Hou Yue, who is a martial arts expert, is more suitable to act alone. Bringing Wuyou with him may slow down the process.
All Jiang Yunzheng could do was to bring Wuyou here to meet Hou Yue.
This is the place where she and Hou Yue agreed to meet.
Time seemed to be stretched to its limit at this moment, and soon, there was a noise near the carriage.
Jiang Yunzheng lifted the curtain on one side.
Hou Yue had her lower face covered, her chest and shoulders covered in blood. She whispered quickly, "We got the stuff!"
Jiang Yunzheng frowned: "Get in the car first."
Hou Yue raised his sword and frowned, "I'm fine, don't worry."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of someone climbing over the wall and landing on the ground.
Jiang Yunzheng looked over and saw that it was Yu Zheng.
Yu Zheng and Jiang Yunzheng had the same plan.
"No, Miss Hou, I saved you, and you just abandoned me like that???"
As soon as Yu Zheng finished speaking, there were several footsteps behind him.
"Stop right there! Don't run!"
Jiang Yunzheng: "Get in the car first!!"
Wuyue whispered, "It's too late."
There were a large number of people in the group, and each of them had good martial arts skills and were all ferocious and vicious.
Hou Yue stared at Jiang Yunzheng and said, "Run first! If I don't kill these bastards, I won't be named Hou!!"
After saying that, he threw the thing directly into the carriage and then kicked the horse's butt.
The horse neighed and ran forward.
Jiang Yunzheng was sitting in the carriage. She suddenly lifted the curtain and said to Wuyou, "I'll drive the carriage. You go down and help Hou Yue. I'll find a way to get back home when the time comes."
Wuyue looked hesitant: "Young Madam, what are you going to do?"
Jiang Yunzheng said sternly: "You go down first. I have a way to escape. It will be too late if you wait."
Wu You gritted her teeth and jumped out of the car.
Yu Zheng stood with Hou Yue holding a sword. Fortunately, at this time, a group of masked men in black came to the street corner.
Yu Zheng stared at the person in front of him and recognized that it was Qingying. Yu Zheng suddenly smiled and said, "I'll leave it to you."
Having said that, he didn't care about Hou Yue and ran towards the carriage with his sword in hand.
Only Hou Yue was left there. Hou Yue cursed softly, "Damn it!"
As he said this, he picked up his sword and chopped it off.
The group of people led by Qingying on the outermost side also joined the battle.
Wu Yu watched Yu Zheng running backwards and raised his sword to stab Yu Zheng. Yu Zheng dodged to the side and Wu Yu's stab missed. Then another guard from the Xu Mansion harassed Wu Yu.
Yu Zheng pursed his lips: "I won't kill her."
Wu You was entangled by the man and couldn't get away. He could only watch Yu Zheng jump onto the carriage!
In a place where no one noticed, Xu Suyuan stood behind the corner. He stared at Hou Yue's eyebrows, and his eyes were fixed on the direction where the carriage left.
Xu Suyuan felt a sudden pain in his chest.
He pounded the wall fiercely: Jiang Yunzheng!!!
