Chapter 115 Go to Jiang Mansion to Ask for Someone
Jiang Lianzhi stared at her face and asked, "Why are you so hostile to me?"
Chen Yu was stunned. She unknowingly brought in the emotions of her previous life, but in this life she did not marry Jiang Lianzhi, nothing had happened yet, and Jiang Lianzhi had even helped her.
She turned her face away, not knowing how to explain.
Compared with her previous life, she had changed so much that even if she was wearing low-grade palace maid clothes, it was difficult to conceal the radiance emanating from her.
Jiang Lianzhi looked at him for a moment, then lowered his brows and his expression became difficult to discern.
"Are you investigating your father's case?"
Shen Yu looked at him and didn't respond.
Jiang Lianzhi continued, "It's not safe for you to walk outside now. I can help you. I will investigate General Shen's case."
Chen Yu controlled her emotions and said, "I appreciate your kindness, sir, but it's not necessary."
Jiang Lianzhi suddenly raised his voice, "I can't do it, but can Xie Tingzhou do it?"
Chen Yu looked at Jiang Lianzhi in shock. How did he know?
Jiang Lianzhi turned his head to look at the curtain, the jealousy in his heart almost burned the curtain, "To be honest, I have seen you twice before, but I just confirmed it."
One time, at the gate of Dali Temple, he saw a little bit of the side profile but was not sure. That time, he asked Xie Tingzhou who was in the carriage, and Xie Tingzhou replied: "My man."
Another time was in the government office in the capital. She turned her back to people for fear of being exposed, and Xie Tingzhou held her in his arms.
If she hadn't heard Xie Tingzhou pause in the East Palace just now in the palace, he wouldn't have been able to fully connect the dots.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lianzhi felt a deep anger in his heart.
He lowered his eyes, stared at the tea on the table for a moment, then raised his hand to pour a cup and handed it to her.
Chen Yu has been in the martial arts world for many years and is very wary of unfamiliar people, so after taking it, she did not drink it but put it on the table.
Jiang Lianzhi took the cup and took a sip himself, indicating that it was non-toxic.
"You don't have to be so vigilant. I won't hurt you."
Chen Yu said: "I have a rather impatient temper, so I may have offended you with my words just now, I hope you can forgive me."
"It's okay." Jiang Lianzhi laughed at himself and said, "I felt guilty for not being able to stop General Shen in the palace before he left for the war last year.
Guilt."
"It's good to know that you are still alive. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to Jiang Mansion to find me."
The air in the carriage was stuffy, and Chen Yu slightly opened a crack.
Seeing this, Jiang Lianzhi took out an incense burner from under the table and lit it.
I don’t know what kind of incense is burning in the stove, but it is quiet and pleasant, and it smells fresh and refreshing.
Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "There are indeed areas where adults can help."
"You can speak frankly."
"I heard that before the defeat, the Lord sent a letter to Beilin, asking the prince of Beilin to send troops to Yanliang Pass. Is this true?"
Jiang Lianzhi was shocked in her heart but did not show it on her face. It seemed that Xie Tingzhou had hidden nothing from her and had told her everything.
"Yes, I failed to stop your father, and because of what you said to me in front of the palace gate, I was worried that something might happen at Yanliang Pass, so I wrote that letter."
Shen Yu looked at him calmly.
This statement was well-founded and could not be refuted, but she did not believe it. She did not believe that Jiang Lianzhi would decide to write to Beilin just because of her few words.
Jiang Lianzhi asked again: "You don't believe it, right?"
Chen Yu was silent.
Jiang Lianzhi suddenly smiled, "You really can't lie. Even if you don't believe it, you should pretend to believe it, and then wait for an opportunity to find evidence to expose it."
Chen Yu shook her head and said, "I don't want to spend time playing these tricks with you."
Jiang Lianzhi's smile froze, and he suddenly asked, "If I were to play a trick on you, would you be angry?"
"What do you mean?" Chen Yu frowned and was about to ask again, but she felt her body begin to weaken and her vision became blurry.
Chen Yu immediately realized something was wrong. She clearly didn't drink tea...
That’s right! It’s an incense burner.
But Jiang Lianzhi was clearly in the same carriage, so why wasn’t he poisoned?
Without time to think, Chen Yu pulled out the dagger and rushed towards Jiang Lianzhi, putting the dagger against his neck.
"Where's the antidote?"
Jiang Lianzhi was not afraid and stared at her face.
Then he stretched out his arms and embraced the fallen Chen Yu.
He held her with one hand and leaned her against him, pulled the dagger out of her hand and threw it on the ground, then picked up the tea on the table and poured it on the table.
Into the incense burner.
There is incense in the incense burner and the antidote is in the tea.
…
An assassin broke into the East Palace last night and the prince did not sleep all night.
If you walk on the road at night too much, you will always see ghosts. He has done a lot of bad things, so naturally he was worried that someone was coming to seek revenge.
Crown Prince Li Jincheng forced himself to hold a banquet to entertain Xie Tingzhou.
Li Jincheng knew that Xie Tingzhou was good friends with Li Jifeng, but Li Jifeng was a useless person and posed no threat to him.
Bei Lin has a strong force, and if Xie Tingzhou can be used by him, it will be a great help.
The sun was shining brightly, and the shadows of the trees outside the window formed circles on the ground.
Xie Tingzhou stood up to say goodbye, declining Li Jincheng's offer to keep him for dinner. After leaving the East Palace, Xifeng immediately followed him.
"No one was found in the palace, but there is a suspicion."
Xie Tingzhou: "Speak."
Xi Feng said, "In the morning, a eunuch was molesting a palace maid outside the East Palace. The Fourth Prince and Minister Jiang saw them. The Fourth Prince handed the man over to Minister Jiang."
"Does Jiang Ji want it?"
If he didn't want it, it would just be an insignificant episode. If Jiang Lianzhi wanted it, it would mean...
Before Xie Tingzhou could finish his thought, Xi Feng said, "Yes, it was Minister Jiang who asked for it."
Xie Tingzhou's steps became unsteady.
"Go to Jiang's house." His jaw tightened a little, "I need someone."
Jiang Mansion.
The gate of Jiang Lianzhi's yard was closed tightly.
The servants spoke in low voices as they walked, because the young master had a very grim look on his face when he came back carrying the person.
It was still the same yard where she had lived for three years.
Jiang Lianzhi put Chen Yu on the bed, stared at her face, and touched her with trembling hands, but stopped before touching her.
She said she didn't know where his deep love for her came from, so where should she start?
Perhaps it was because of the companionship of thousands of days and nights, that he finally gave his heart away without realizing it.
But by some strange coincidence I missed it.
Water drops fell on the quilt, leaving a few wet spots.
Jiang Lianzhi held her hand and murmured, "I will pay you back double what I owed you in my previous life, okay? Ayu."
