Fang Yuan, no matter how capable he is, is just an ordinary person. This world has always been full of people, and there is no shortage of capable people.

If you spend more time looking, you will be able to find a suitable manager, maybe someone better than Fang Yuan.

only--

Wu Wei'an curled his lips slightly and looked at his seemingly indifferent wife: "Can you just ignore it?"

Ji Yunxi raised her head, her bright and determined eyes looking at him quietly. She opened her red lips slightly and flirted with the question: "If it were you, would you care?"

Wu Wei'an put the cup down with a soft sound and made the final decision: "Guan."

Ji Yunxi raised her beautiful eyebrows, a hint of surprise on her bright face: "This is quite unexpected."

Wu Weian is not a gentleman with a bright and upright character. Although he has a kind face, the word "kindness" has never been associated with him.

In his hands, people are probably just chess pieces.

Fang Yuan was a small chess piece, and she thought he would just ignore it.

Wu Weian curved his eyes, his face calm and kind, his tone gentle and affectionate: "Saving one person reassures the hearts of thousands. They will be willing to work for you, so why not?"

Ji Yunxi understood what he meant: "I don't know whether it is a blessing or a misfortune to be your man."

Wu Wei'an shrugged. He never thought about this kind of question. He looked at her and casually reminded her, "The Ministry of Justice's prison is probably already laying a tight net, waiting for your Ji family to fall into it. You can intervene, but you have to find another way. Otherwise, not only will you fail to save Fang Yuan, but you will end up losing yourself."

As for asking him to find a way to help? Fang Yuan is not his man.

Don't think he doesn't know that Fang Yuan secretly diverted part of the business from his four stores to Ji Yunxi's four stores.

Ji Yunxi looked at him, raised her eyebrows, and said in a somewhat incredulous tone: "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Wu Wei'an laughed: "I'm just reminding you. Now that you and I are married, please don't drag my Wu family into this."

Ji Yunxi couldn't help but rolled her eyes slightly.

She pondered for a moment and discussed with him: "I want to borrow your people."

Wu Wei'an hummed: "What?"

Ji Yunxi said, "Fang Yuan was a woman who left her hometown disguised as a man and came to Shangjing City. She was also proficient in gambling. I suspect her father, who was addicted to gambling, pawned her off to a gambling den, so she may have spent some time there as a child. Later, for some reason, she was probably bought. Bought women don't have a good end. She probably accidentally killed someone, then took on a man's identity and fled to Shangjing City."

Wu Wei'an nodded: "In the imperial examination, Fang Yuan was the last one."

Ji Yunxi: "It has been almost three months since Fang Yuan became my manager. This is just enough time for someone to go to Fang Yuan's hometown and come back. The Fifth Prince's people must have brought the real Fang Yuan's parents. I need your people to help me find Fang Yuan's parents."

Wu Weian glanced at her with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

There was a smile in his eyes: "Okay, I just happened to be looking for a horse. But as a couple, should we settle accounts clearly?"

Ji Yunxi looked at him: "I know, you name a price."

Wu Wei'an thought for a moment and said, "The average price for finding someone in the market is one thousand taels. I'll take two thousand taels." He crossed his legs calmly and said, "Of course, you can also find someone else."

Ji Yunxi said "oh" and asked him calmly, "Is there a big difference between one thousand taels and two thousand taels?"

Wu Weian, who was calm and composed, crossed his legs and paused: "..."

The gap between people is really huge. Even if they sleep in the same bed, there is a world of difference between them.

He sighed softly, "Then it's settled. Two thousand taels. One thousand upfront, and another one thousand when the deal is done."

Ji Yunxi bent down, opened another small secret compartment, and pulled out twenty banknotes from the pile of banknotes inside. She handed them over and said, "No need. I'll pay it all now."

Wu Weian: “…”

Well, he was originally quite happy to earn two thousand taels.

But now, he suddenly wasn't so happy anymore.

But Wu Weian immediately put down his crossed legs, took the banknote and put it in his pocket.

Outside the Ministry of Justice prison, the wounded Fang Yuan was awakened by a bucket of water.

Water slid down the long hair, revealing a face that was obviously a woman's.

'Fang Yuan's' facial features are not very delicate, and he has a very ordinary street-like appearance.

Outside the prison, a gray-haired couple stood there identifying each other.

The mean-looking old woman pointed at Fang Yuan excitedly, "That's her! She's the bitch from my family! My old man won a little money gambling back then, and happened to see this bitch serving tea and water nearby. He couldn't bear it, so he bought her from the gambling house! We originally wanted this bitch to be a child bride for our youngest son! We fed her and clothed her from childhood to adulthood, but I never thought this bitch would be so vicious! She actually murdered my son, my son! She even wrote a letter pretending to be my son, saying she was going to the capital to take the imperial examination! If it weren't for you finding us, we wouldn't have known that this bitch had murdered my son! My poor son! He finally passed the provincial examination and became a juren! And in the end, he was murdered by this bitch! My lord, you must seek justice for my son and have this bitch torn into pieces by five horses!!"

The old woman covered her heart with her hands, and was heartbroken when she thought of her youngest son who should have had a bright future.

Her voice was sharp, circling back and forth in the prison.

Fang Yuan moved slightly, opened his eyes with difficulty, and then closed them with great effort. His lips, which were bitten to a bloody mess, curled up in sarcasm.

Fang Yuan gritted his teeth and followed the Third Lady's instructions. He fainted from the pain but refused to admit that she had killed Fang Yuan.

If she really admitted it, the third girl would probably not be able to save her.

The third girl said she would find a way to rescue her.

To be honest, the third girl's status is very different from hers, and she has actually only seen the third girl a few times in these days.

The gambling house is everything to her, but it is not everything to the third girl.

But inexplicably, she just believed the third girl.
