Chapter 28 Contraceptive Remedies
Su Tangyu reached out and picked up the paper. The scent of ink filled the air, and between the lines...
Written on it are Su Jian’s crimes!
After investigation, it was found that Su Jian had misappropriated 100,000 taels of silver!
This money was embezzled from the Empress Dowager's summer palace. Su Jian instructed the Minister of Works, who was in charge of the construction of the palace, to pass off inferior goods as good ones in order to conceal the truth.
Both human and material evidence have been collected.
Su Tangyu's face was cold, her almond-shaped eyes were shining, and she continued to look at the second piece of paper.
Su Jian was busy with his daughter Su Zhaoyang's wedding, secretly meeting with officials, and bribed and instigated the embezzlement of public funds for dam maintenance and some repair funds for Kyoto's city defenses...
The third piece of paper...
After checking the Ministry of Industry's account books from previous years, we found that some accounts did not match and are currently being carefully checked and verified.
Su Tangyu curled the corners of his mouth, his eyes cold and sarcastic.
turn out to be!
This is not the first time that Su Jian has embezzled public funds!
Pull out the radish, and you'll bring out the mud.
The more you check!
The more informative!
"Your Highness..." Su Tangyu sat on Xiao Jin's lap, raised her head, and asked softly and tentatively, "When are you going to settle the score?"
"Look at you."
Xiao Jin's voice was cold and indifferent, revealing the arrogance of a superior.
The evidence is conclusive, do you want Su Jian’s head?
But he said one word.
Xiao Jin didn't care about Su Jian's life or death. He tilted his head to look at Su Tangyu's little face, his fingers circling her waist.
Su Tangyu felt numb and sensitive, and her waist became weak for a moment.
She gritted her teeth and pursed her lips to suppress her inappropriate gasps, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling with watery light.
Xiao Jin teased her for a while, then raised his lip in a malicious way and asked Su Tangyu in her ear: "Xiao Yu'er, do you want to marry your sister before or after?"
"After marriage!"
Su Tangyu couldn't help but put down the paper and reached out to hold Xiao Jin's palm.
However, Xiao Jin had broad palms and long, strong fingers. He easily grabbed Su Tangyu with his backhand and kneaded her delicate fingers.
The skin is delicate and white, and after playing with it, faint red marks appear.
Xiao Jin played with her fingers, his eyes cold and unhappy. "Xiao Yu'er, do you want to help others? Are you still thinking about our old relationship?"
"Of course not, Your Majesty has misunderstood!"
Su Tangyu frowned, her body tensed, and the silver bells on her feet jingled crisply.
She thought to herself that it was because she had not yet left the Su family's household registration!
She didn't want to be implicated by the Su family.
What she didn't want even more was that the dowry she had finally gotten back was confiscated.
Su Tangyu made an excuse, "Your Highness, you see, Su Jian has committed more than one crime! We must investigate thoroughly and cannot forgive him!"
Xiao Jin didn't believe it.
He stared at Su Tangyu's eyebrows and said in a low and teasing tone: "Xiao Yu'er, you want him to die without a doubt and never be able to turn over!"
"Yes!" Su Tangyu nodded and confessed his hatred and ambition frankly.
Xiao Jin knows everything anyway.
He likes it better if you just obey him obediently.
really!
Xiao Jin's expression became cheerful and lazy. "Okay, then we'll settle the accounts after the wedding."
He then asked, "Are you going to the wedding banquet?"
"want!"
Su Tangyu's eyes were cold and she nodded.
On the wedding day of Gu Mingyan and Su Zhaoyang, she will give them a big gift!
Xiao Jin then released her hand and handed her the jade porcelain bowl, "Eat."
Su Tangyu stared at the used spoon...
We've already kissed each other, there's no need to be so particular!
If she dared to change the tableware, Xiao Jin would definitely be unhappy.
Su Tangyu sighed inwardly and silently ate her second bowl of almond tofu. Her mouth was filled with sweetness, and her red lips were stained with honey-colored syrup, which looked particularly moist and sweet.
Xiao Jin's dark eyes became burning hot.
He raised his hand, pressed Su Tangyu's slender neck, lowered his head and kissed her deeply.
Almond tofu is too sweet, I don't like it.
Xiaoyuer is so sweet, he likes her!
Xiao Jin raised his head and stroked the blushing skin on his neck with his fingertips. It was so delicate and smooth that he couldn't let it go.
He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Tofu is good."
Su Tangyu's almond-shaped eyes were moist and misty after being kissed, and she breathed in the fresh air rapidly.
Hearing this, she didn't care about being angry.
The silver bells on her ankles jingled, and Su Tangyu blushed, "Your Highness, it's daytime now."
"Have an early break today."
Xiao Jin spoke in a low and hoarse voice. He held Su Tangyu's waist tightly and lowered his head to smell the fragrance of her hair.
The sweet sandalwood and daughter fragrance are blended with his ambergris.
Despite their intimacy, there was also a slight medicinal smell that Xiao Jin disliked.
Xiao Jin frowned, "Where does the smell of medicine come from?"
"Are you sick?"
Su Tangyu looked at him with resentment.
"Your Highness..." she said in a faint, accusing tone, "Have you forgotten that I need to drink contraceptive soup every day?"
Who is it that has no restraint?
And you blame her for smelling like medicine?
Do you have any shame?
Xiao Jin thought thoughtfully, "You don't want to drink anymore?"
"No." Su Tangyu shook her head like a rattle.
Xiao Jin's eyes were deep, and his handsome face couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry. It was unclear whether he believed it or not.
Early the next morning.
Su Tangyu held the medicine bowl and tasted a unique flavor.
Suspicious, she tilted her head and asked Qinglan, "Why does the contraceptive soup taste wrong?"
"My lady, the prince has ordered a change in the recipe."
Qinglan explained, "This is made by drying persimmon stalks, grinding them into powder, and then boiling them for consumption. The prince instructed you to drink it for seven days straight!"
Su Tangyu was puzzled, "Why?"
"It is said that drinking it for seven days can prevent pregnancy for several months!"
Qinglan smiled brightly and praised with envy, "The prince must be distressed, young lady, you take medicine often!"
Su Tangyu was speechless.
She lowered her eyes and stared at the empty bowl of medicine, her heart still a little uneasy, "Will this folk remedy work?"
Alone and ready to escape at any moment.
If I get pregnant, the sky will fall!
Su Tangyu raised her hand and touched her belly. She didn't love Xiao Jin and she must not get pregnant with his child.
Qinglan misunderstood her actions and lowered her voice to persuade her: "Miss, the prince dotes on you. You want an heir? You can ask the prince for grace and not drink the medicine!"
"No! I like taking medicine!"
Su Tangyu's heart is as solid as a rock and will never waver.
She calculated the time of Gu Mingyan and Su Zhaoyang's wedding and asked Yinlian to pass on a message that she wanted to go out and asked Xiao Jin for permission.
Xiao Jin agreed readily.
But Su Tangyu never expected that when she had packed up, walked out of the Regent's Palace and climbed into the carriage, she looked up and saw someone's handsome and cold face.
For a moment she thought she had gotten on the wrong carriage, "I'm sorry!"
Su Tangyu just turned her head...
From the carriage came Xiao Jin's cold, low, and irresistible command, "Sit down."
Su Tangyu pursed her lips, lifted her skirt with an obedient and gentle look on her face, and sat opposite Xiao Jin.
"Where are you going?"
"Garment Bureau."
Xiao Jin looked at her deeply, raised his hand and knocked on the window, and the carriage drove out immediately.
When we arrived at the west of the city, the carriage stopped outside a well-known clothing factory.
The guards went in to clear the area.
When Su Tangyu got off the car, the people on the street looked at her with awe and curiosity.
Su Tangyu didn't wait for Xiao Jin and ran into the door.
Xiao Jin raised his eyebrows, not thinking much about it, just thinking that she was nervous and shy.
But when he casually walked into the clothing department, he looked up and heard Su Tangyu say to the female shopkeeper: "I want to order coarse linen cloth - filial daughter's clothes!"
