Chapter 221 Are you here to trick me?



"After my cousin got married, she wanted to keep the jade pendant as a keepsake, but it upset my brother. Although he liked the jade pendant, he never wore it again after that incident, and then I secretly kept it."

Lu Jin looked at Wen Yu with admiration and said, "Princess, you are really amazing. You made my brother love you to death in no time. He can't live without you."

Wen Yu: …………………………

You understand the art of speaking.

He cut off the beginning and the end and distorted the facts with just one sentence.

It would be a waste of talent if you don’t become a marketing account.

The corners of Wen Yu's mouth twitched.

Liu Chun, who was standing by, was also very upset after hearing this:...

She was so worried about General Lu just now that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Did Mr. Lu come here deliberately to trick me?

If the princess was unreasonable and didn't listen to what was said later when she was angry, and just decided life and death based on that one sentence, then General Lu would have been wrongly killed.

When the princess dislikes you, you won’t know why.

If General Lu knew about this, he would probably be so angry that he would die.

But Lu Jin was completely unaware that he had just inadvertently tricked his brother and continued to take out the package.

Wen Yu supported her chin and did not interrupt him. Instead, she watched him dig patiently.

Soon the package was emptied by Lu Jin, and the table was already full.

"Princess, these are all my treasures. They are all for you!"

Wen Yu couldn't help laughing when she looked at these treasures.

She picked up the jade pendant and said, "Leave this one here, and take the others back with you."

Lu Jin moved his mouth: "Don't you want other princesses?"

"What do I need all these things from Lu Ren's childhood for? I'm not going to be his mother."

Lu Jin: …

He said, "I'm just afraid that you'll forget your brother."

The princess is now having a great fight with the scholar, and her brother is in Xili and can't come back, so she is in a very passive situation.

He has to help his brother!

If the princess can see her brother's things from time to time, she will definitely think of him from time to time!

But Wen Yu only took the jade pendant and firmly refused to take the others. Instead, she let Lu Jin take them back intact.

So Lu Jin had no choice but to leave the princess's mansion carrying a large package.

Liu Chun said, "Princess, Mr. Lu is really good at talking. General Lu would be so angry if he knew about this."

Wen Yu played with the jade pendant in her hand and curled her lips.

The next day, as soon as Wen Yu woke up, Liu Chun brought big news.

"Princess, the sky has changed this morning."

"Lord Jiang has investigated the fraud case. All officials involved have been dismissed from their posts, their property has been confiscated, and some have been exiled. Everyone is in danger."

"Your Majesty has restored Master Yue's title of number one. Master Yue will be released from prison this afternoon!"

"By the way, Princess, you'll never guess who the mastermind is!"

Wen Yu sat in front of the dressing mirror, yawned lightly, and said slowly: "Who else could it be but Grand Secretary?"

Liu Chun was stunned: "Princess, how did you know that?"

"Well...I observed the celestial phenomena last night and calculated it with my fingers."

"Princess, are you really a genius?!"

Liu Chun had a look of admiration on his face. “The emperor is furious and has ordered a search of the Grand Secretary’s residence.”

"This matter also involves the previous spring imperial examinations. Many officials who got promoted through fraud were all stripped of their official hats, their property was confiscated and they were exiled. None of them could escape."

Liu Chun became more and more excited as he spoke, and was almost dancing.

"Master Yue was released from prison this afternoon. Princess, are you going to pick him up?"

Wen Yu smiled and said, "Of course I will go."

When they arrived at the Shengjing prison, Yue Lingfeng and Yang Cheng had just come out.

The difference is that Yue Lingfeng looked relaxed, while Yang Cheng looked quite distraught.

He never imagined that the mastermind behind the cheating was actually his most beloved teacher!

The teacher even intended to throw dirty water on him and make him a scapegoat!

This was completely different from the teachers he knew.

The teacher is a Grand Secretary, highly respected in the court. Given his status, why would he plot cheating in the imperial examination? What good will it do for him to have his good reputation ruined?

Yang Cheng was completely confused. He did not doubt that the Dali Temple had misjudged the case. He just wanted to ask the teacher in person why.

Wen Yu took Yue Lingfeng's hand, turned him around, and nodded: "Your face looks rosy, not bad, not bad."

Yue Lingfeng's expression changed slightly, and he bravely hugged Wen Yu into his arms.

"Miss……"

Wen Yu was surprised for a moment, then hugged him back, patted his back, and said, "Well, you've been in jail for a long time, and you smell a bit like jail."

Yue Lingfeng: ...

He let go of Wen Yu, a trace of embarrassment flashing across his face.

He had indeed not taken a bath for a long time, and there were no conditions for doing so in the prison.

"Your humble servant greets the princess."

Yang Cheng's voice suddenly rang in his ears, "I would like to ask the princess for an oral instruction."

Wen Yu looked at Yang Cheng and saw that his face was a little pale, and his usually round eyes had become a little dim.

It feels a little listless, like a hamster that can't crawl on a wheel.

It seems that the mastermind of the fraud case was his dear teacher, which must have been a big blow to him.

"I want to see the teacher..."

Liu Chun whispered in his ear: "Princess, the Grand Secretary has been transferred to the Heavenly Prison."

Wen Yu looked at Yang Cheng and said, "You regarded him as your beloved teacher, but he didn't regard you as his precious student. Wasn't it he who caused you to be in prison these days?"

A look of desolation flashed across Yang Cheng's eyes.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Qi suddenly appeared outside the prison at this time.

When Wen Yu saw him, a hint of mischief appeared in her eyes.

There was no other reason, it was just that he was not wearing the iron official uniform today, but a crimson robe with a black belt, his posture was straight, and his brows were serious.

It was exactly the set that Wen Yu bought for him.

Noticing Wen Yu's gaze, Jiang Qi's whole body tensed up and his hands and feet became extremely unnatural.

He met Wen Yu's gaze and saluted, then said to Yang Cheng, "Sir Yang, the Grand Secretary wants to see you one last time. The Emperor has granted his permission. You can follow the jailer."

Yang Cheng clenched his fists and left.

Wen Yu teased, "Master Jiang is very different today."

Jiang Qiyuan's already tense body had completely stiffened.

Yue Lingfeng's gaze fell on Jiang Qi and he pursed his lips imperceptibly.

"Today is a good day, everything you want will come true~"

Wen Yu attacked from both sides, holding one person's arm with one hand, and hugging them left and right.

She smiled and said, "Good things come in pairs, let's have a family bucket together."

Jiang Qi: ...

Yue Lingfeng: ...

Liuchun: Amitabha!!!
