    CHAPTER 101 - ODDITIES

    Wei Shuyu squatted and looked into Lady Wu's eyes. Third Uncle wants to reunite with you, are you willing? After asking, Wei Shuyu turned around and gave a signal.

    Lady Wu was stunned after hearing that. Then, she followed Wei Shuyu's gaze and saw Wei Zhiyuan, who was standing behind her.

    Wei Zhiyuan sighed, walked over and squatted down, then lowered his head and said to Mrs. Wu, Sorry, let's go back and live our lives, are you willing?

    Mrs Wu did not have any reaction, Wei Zhiyuan waited for a long time, and then he could not help but look up at her. At first, Lady Wu's eyes were filled with disbelief, then shock, just like the time when she received the letter of truce. Following that, tears rolled down her face and she wailed loudly.

    Seemingly venting her anger, Lady Wu's expression was much more spirited than before. Wei Shuyu nodded at the two, watching Wei Zhiyuan lead Lady Wu back slowly.

    When they got back, Qiao asked her, How is it? Is it done?

    Wei Shuyu nodded and told her the general story.

    Qiao sighed. I hope it's as Ol 'Three said. They can live their lives peacefully in the future.

    Three days later.

    Steward Hee took the plant reference map that Wei Shuyu gave him and climbed onto the horse carriage that was leaving the city.

    Wei Shuyu pointed him south and told him to search for seeds in the coastal provinces.

    Boss, wait for the good news that I brought back. Steward Hee stood on the frame of the car. His eyes were bright and his heart suddenly surged with ambition.

    Wei Shuyu did not expect Steward Hee to have such a spirit of exploration at such an age.

    Then, I wish Steward Hee a pleasant journey. Wei Shuyu waved goodbye.

    Zhu Mansion.

    Bam! Zhu Guanghao slammed the table and said: She actually let Jingzhong leave!

    Yes, when we received the news, we could no longer find any trace of Steward Hee. The servant explained.

    Wei Shuyu, you really don't put me in your eyes! Zhu Guanghao said bitterly.

    Old master, what should we do now?

    Zhu Guanghao thought for a moment, then wrote a letter and handed it to the servant, Send this to Patron Zheng. Didn't he want to visit Yongping Mansion recently? When he comes to the county, I'll have to entertain him well. Saying that, Zhu Guanghao laughed.

    The servant did not dare to guess Zhu Guanghao's thoughts as he took the letter and hurriedly left.

    Zhu Guanghao smiled as he watched the servants leave. He sent a letter to a patron named Zheng Yanming, who had even fawned on Prime Minister Feng before. However, since there was nothing useful about it and the gift was too ordinary, Prime Minister Feng did not even look at it and thus did not get a chance to promote himself.

    Since he took the initiative to express his goodwill towards the other party, he didn't believe that Zheng Yanming wouldn't take the bait. When the time came, Wei Shuyu would still be at his mercy.

    On the other side. In a seemingly ordinary house in the county.

    Yin Shiliu entered the yard, planning to make a routine report to Jiang Rann. But after looking around, he couldn't find anything. He couldn't help but ask Yin Yi, who was standing at the door of the study: Where's Master?

    Yin Yi glanced at him, at Yin Er's place, are you going to look for him?

    Yin Shiliu shivered when she heard that. No, I think it's better if I stay outside and wait for Master. Yin Er was a weird person. Sometimes, they didn't understand what he was talking about and would always carry bottles and jars with them.

    Once, when she was curious, she secretly opened one of the jars to take a look. She was so shocked that she almost broke it. Surprisingly, there were all kinds of colorful bugs inside! From then on, she swore, she would never touch Yin Er's things again. Even Yin Shiliu decided to stay away from those who saw her son.

    After waiting for three incense sticks of time, the sound of the bookcase moving came from the study. Yin Shiliu knew that her master had come out from a secret passage. As expected, the door to the study was opened soon after.

    Wu Tie used the silk handkerchief to wipe his hands. He first looked at Yin Yi and asked, What is it?

    I've already passed the news to Ning King. Yin Yi reported and then said, The court sent news that Prime Minister Feng had hired a scholar to concoct the elixir specifically for the emperor.

    Jiang Rann raised his eyebrows and ridiculed: What reaction does that trash have?

    Yin Yi paused for a moment before he replied to Jiang Rann's words, Long Yan Da Yue.

    Heh. Jiang Rann sneered: All past emperors, did they end up well after taking those immortal pills? Moreover, most people use this kind of medicine only when they are getting older. This piece of trash, on the other hand, is courting death at the prime of his life. He is truly afraid that he will live for too long.

    Yin Shiliu, who stood at the side, remained silent. They were already used to their master's mouth that was more venomous than a venom from a venomous snake when it came to the emperor.

    Is this Feng Yueze stupid? Doing this is simply suicidal. He thinks that now that Yan Xulin is dead, how can the next Emperor let him wield such great power?

    Yin Yi thought about it and said to Jiang Rann, I think he's a bit impatient. That's why he thought of such a trick.

    Oh? Wei Shuyu raised her eyebrows.

    Yin Yi looked at his mistress and said with his head lowered, "A few days ago, Ning King presented the birthday celebration gift to the empress dowager. It's said to be a rare item that can make people younger.

    Liu Tie paused for a moment, and then continued, Then Yin Noble Consort asked the Emperor for it after she found out. The Emperor had no choice but to get another set of this strange item for Yin Noble Consort. Because of this matter, the emperor has placed more importance on Ning King than usual, which is why Prime Minister Feng is so anxious.

    Who is that strange item? Ever since Jiang Rann heard about this, he had a bad premonition.

    Sure enough, Yin Yi's next sentence verified Yin Yi's conjecture, It is said that four things that can only be preserved by crystals can also make a person's body remain fragrant for a long time, and also eliminate physical fatigue. Also, there are two things that can make a person's skin pale and become young.

    Damn it! Jiang Rann cursed in a low voice with a dark expression. He was regretting telling the news of the Northern Lands to Yan Xuyao now.

    Pay close attention to this matter. Once you discover that someone has traced Wei Shuyu's route, no matter what means he uses, suppress him! Jiang Rann quickly gave Yin Yi this order.

    Actually, Ning King did keep this a secret, no one knew where Ning King got the stuff from. Yin Yi thought to himself. However, after looking at his own master, he wisely chose not to say these words out loud. Yin Yi thought about it for a moment, then accepted his order and left.

    Yin Shiliu widened her eyes as she watched Yin Yi take a few steps back before leaving. As Yin Yi left, Yin Shiliu felt the light in the study room darken. It was as if a fierce beast was about to appear.

    This Yin Yi! After provoking her master, she ran off in anger, leaving her to face her master, who was emitting cold air all over. What to do! He felt that his master's face was getting colder and colder! Yin Shiliu screamed silently in her heart.

    What do you want to say? Jiang Rann looked at the silent Yin Shiliu and asked coldly.

    CHAPTER 102 - PATROLLING

    Yin Shiliu finished her report and left the study room. After a long sigh of relief, he glanced at the tightly shut door behind him and turned around to leave.

    At the county magistrate's yamen's entrance.

    County Magistrate Lee Qinglan led a group of local officials in official uniform as they waited for the patron to arrive.

    When noon approached, the bailiff who had gone to check on the situation came back sweating. He's here!

    The originally lazy officials immediately tidied up their appearance after waiting for a long time. They raised their spirits and looked towards the other end of the street.

    Not long after, an eight carriers palanquin appeared in his line of sight, followed by a guard follower. Lee Qinglan slightly frowned after seeing it, but when the sedan stopped in front of him, he still led the officials behind him and bowed. This lowly official, Jinshui County County Magistrate Lee Qinglan pays his respect to Lord Zheng. The others also followed suit and bowed.

    Right. A short reply came from the palanquin. The manservant next to the sedan opened the curtain, and a fat man dressed in a patrolman's robe bent down and appeared. Seeing the group of officials in front of him and the simple and crude looking County Yamen behind him, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: Go in.

    He then led the people he brought in.

    This official has already arranged a welcoming feast. Sir, please move to the back room. Lee Qinglan walked a few steps to keep up with Chief Patrol Officer Zheng.

    Zheng Yanming stopped his steps and looked at the other party admiringly, Then lead the way.

    When it was Shuang Yang, Wei Shuyu also placed a few pots of chrysanthemum flowers for Origin Fragrance Tavern and home. The waiter also took the dogwood and stuck it all over the room.

    Jiang Rann held a handful of chrysanthemum in his hand and passed it to Wei Shuyu. For sister.

    Wei Shuyu paused for a moment, then naturally took the flowers from Jiang Rann's hands, Thank you.

    Why don't we go climb the mountain? Jiang Rann suggested.

    Wei Shuyu showed an apologetic expression. I might not be able to accompany you out today.

    Jiang Rann smiled and lowered his mouth: Is there something wrong?

    Right. Wei Shuyu nodded. Madame Gu is here to discuss something with me today. Because Wei Shuyu had previously agreed to expand the production of skin care products and perfume essential oils, Madame Gu had specially rushed to Jinshui County today to research with Wei Shuyu on how to improve production efficiency.

    The temperature around Jiang Rann instantly dropped, but fortunately, Wei Shuyu didn't feel it. Then I'll stay with you. Jiang Rann said.

    But I may not be able to take care of you later. Aren't you bored yourself?

    Jiang Rann shook his head. I'm not bored. His firm tone showed his determination.

    Alright then.

    After a while, the sound of horses' hooves came from the door. Phew! The horse let out a long hiss and stopped at the Origin Fragrance Tavern entrance. Gu Yanshan was dressed in a dark riding suit.

    The last few times Wei Shuyu had seen Gu Yanshan, she had always worn complicated and colorful dresses. He didn't expect the other party to be so good at riding, and even more valiant than before.

    Miss Wei, long time no see. Gu Yanshan dismounted from her horse and walked over to Wei Shuyu with a beautiful smile. Just as he was about to touch Wei Shuyu's face, an arm came from the side and pulled Wei Shuyu to his side.

    Gu Yanshan frowned as she looked over. When she saw the other party's face, a flash of surprise appeared in her eyes. Aren't you … Then, he thought of something and immediately stopped. Gu Yanshan rolled her eyes and smiled again. She reached out her hand to touch Jiang Rann's face, Whose husband is this. He's really handsome.

    After being dragged by Jiang Rann, Wei Shuyu's line of sight was obstructed. She could only hear Gu Yanshan's voice and not her movements. However, Jiang Rann and Gu Yanshan had already secretly exchanged a few moves at an angle that no one else could see. In the end, Gu Yanshan took the initiative to withdraw her hand.

    Gu Yanshan rubbed her wrist, looking at Jiang Rann with caution.

    Madame Gu, we've been rushing the entire way. It would be better for you to come in and rest first. Wei Shuyu's words broke the formless confrontation between the two. Jiang Rann turned around and followed Wei Shuyu.

    Gu Yanshan stared at the backs of the two for a long time before she finally chuckled. She turned around and instructed the worker, Help me feed the horses some grass. Then he followed the two of them.

    Gu Yanshan tidied up her appearance, changed back into her usual dress, and went to the room that Wei Shuyu usually stayed in. At this moment, only Jiang Rann, who was sitting by the window, looked back coldly after he saw who it was.

    What's happening outside the window that made Young Master Jiang not even want to turn his head back? Gu Yanshan strolled over to Jiang Rann and sat beside him.

    When she received no response, Gu Yanshan did not get angry. She smiled: Does Young Master Jiang like Miss Wei?

    Jiang Rann turned around with a cold expression. It has nothing to do with you.

    Seeing Miss Wei's reaction, interest flashed across Gu Yanshan's eyes. I think Miss Wei is interested in you as well. It's just that she hasn't noticed it herself yet.

    Jiang Rann's expression flashed, but he no longer talked about his own matters. Instead, he asked, Ning King asked you to come here just for this small matter on the surface?

    Gu Yanshan raised her eyebrows. This is no small matter. Be it the madame in the capital or those concubines in the harem, all of them are crazy about these four things that can make people beautiful!

    Jiang Rann's face instantly turned ice-cold when he heard this. He narrowed his eyes and moved closer to Gu Yanshan, the murderous intent in his eyes almost bursting out, Go back and tell Yan Xuyao. If he tells me anything about Wei Shuyu, I'll go get his head myself!

    Gu Yanshan looked into her opponent's eyes and froze in place. At this moment, facing Jiang Rann's killing intent, she clearly felt how terrifying the legendary God of Slaughter was!

    I took it … What are you all doing!? Wei Shuyu's heart instantly felt uncomfortable when she saw the two of them so close together. She thought that Jiang Rann was the only one in the room, so she pushed open the door and entered. She didn't expect to see such a scene.

    From her point of view, it was as if Jiang Rann had taken the initiative to get closer and kiss her. Although she understood that this was probably a misunderstanding when she thought about it later, she really nearly screamed out in that instant!

    Jiang Rann sat up straight and looked at Wei Shuyu with a calm gaze. This elder sister said that her eyes got stuck in the sand and asked me to help her roll up her eyelids.

    The corner of Gu Yanshan's mouth twitched. Hmm … That's right, I got Young Master Jiang to help.

    Rolling your eyes? Wei Shuyu had a strange expression on her face. Shouldn't she usually help to blow the wind?

    Yes. Jiang Rann nodded, then in order to increase the credibility, he opened his eyes and said, Just like this.

    Gu Yanshan, who was standing next to her, couldn't bear to look away as she saw the person who had been emitting such a strong killing intent at her was feigning insanity.

    Looking at Jiang Rann, who wanted to flip the lid of his other eye, Wei Shuyu quickly stopped him, Alright, alright, I got it. Hurry up and get it back. It's time for my eyes to dry.

    CHAPTER 103 - FUGITIVE

    Jiang Rann put down his eyelids obediently and blinked his eyes.

    Looking at Jiang Rann's clear black and white eyes, Wei Shuyu shifted her gaze uncomfortably. I took out the blueprints I drew before. If I use this method, the perfume and essential oil I made should be able to increase by 30%.

    Gu Yanshan's expression became serious as she looked down at the blueprint Wei Shuyu had given her.

    County Yamen backyard.

    Zheng Yanming rested for four hours after the welcoming feast. Afterwards, a servant came in with an invitation: Master, the people from Zhu Mansion have just sent in an invitation for you to visit the Palace.

    Show me. Zheng Yanming took the invitation and opened it.

    Although Zhu Guanghao was just an ex-head of the Prime Minister's Palace who had already returned home, his son was still working there. Compared to these officials, who only transferred between each other over the years, Zhu Guanghao was able to meet with Prime Minister Feng.

    He had previously given a gift to Prime Minister Feng in order to transfer back to the capital, but there had been no news of him. Now that he saw the meaning in Zhu Guanghao's letter, it seemed to be that Zhu Guanghao could help him speak a few words to Prime Minister Feng, allowing him to be the first to enter Jinshui County.

    Get ready, I want to go to Zhu Mansion to meet up with them. Zheng Yanming instructed.

    Zheng Yanming arrived at Zhu Mansion in a palanquin. After handing over the invitation, Zheng Yanming was personally led to the main hall by the butler.

    Because it was a private meeting, Zheng Yanming was dressed in his usual clothes. When Zhu Guanghao saw him, he quickly bowed and said, Greetings, Master Zheng.

    There's no need for Old Master Zhu to be so courteous. Zheng Yanming Xu helped Zhu Guanghao up.

    After the two took their seats, they exchanged a few pleasantries before finally getting down to business.

    See that Old Master Zhu said in the letter that he would make me look good in front of Prime Minister Feng? Is that true? Zheng Yanming put down the teacup in his hand as a bright light flashed across his eyes.

    Zhu Guanghao smiled after hearing that. Actually, I'm not the one who should be beaming for you in front of Prime Minister Feng. It's still up to Mr. Zheng.

    Zheng Yanming frowned. But I've also worked hard all day to send gifts of thanks to Prime Minister Feng, but I've never heard from him …

    Is that a gift? How can you expect Prime Minister Feng to look at you in a different light when he doesn't even put a single steward in his eyes? Zhu Guanghao thought in disdain.

    However, Zheng Yanming couldn't be blamed for this. The place he stayed before was even poorer than Yongping Manor now. Even if he searched, he wouldn't be able to find anything good to offer.

    The other people who worked in the wealthy provinces were different. The gifts they gave were each more precious and rarer than the others. Prime Minister Feng didn't even look at these, let alone Zheng Yanming's gift.

    That's because you don't really understand Prime Minister Feng's preferences. Zhu Guanghao gave him a meaningful smile.

    Oh? Zheng Yanming immediately asked him: Then what does Prime Minister Feng like?

    I don't know much about other things, but what Prime Minister Feng loves the most is having a few sips of delicious food.

    Actually, what Zhu Guanghao said was too polite. Prime Minister Feng had climbed from the bottom to the highest status today, probably because of the hardships he had endured as a child. The food he ate every day was more exquisite than the emperor's, he didn't eat any expensive food, and he didn't drink any old food until he was a hundred years old.

    But Zheng Yanming didn't know. He was still rejoicing at the fact that he had finally understood Prime Minister Feng's preferences. Looking at Zhu Guanghao, who had told him the news, he became a lot more courteous. Old Master Zhu, do you know what Prime Minister Feng's favorite dish is?

    Zhu Guanghao shook his head, Prime Minister Feng has been an official for all these years. His favorite dish before, and now he seems to be sick of it.

    This … Zheng Yanming was in a difficult situation. He had told him Prime Minister Feng's preferences and now Prime Minister Feng said that he was tired of it. Was this all for nothing?

    There's nothing delicious that Prime Minister Feng hasn't tasted before? Zheng Yanming asked without giving up.

    Zhu Guanghao revealed a smile of success. He looked at Zheng Yanming who was lowering his head and thinking, It's not like there are none … I wonder if Lord Zheng has heard of hotpot?

    I only know the brazier. What is this hotpot for? Zheng Yanming asked in confusion. Could it be a pot for heating during the winter?

    Zhu Guanghao smiled, A hotpot is different from a brazier. Then, he explained the eating method of Origin Fragrance Tavern and hotpot to Zheng Yanming.

    This... Bring the raw meat and vegetables to the table immediately..." Prime Minister Feng usually ate in such meticulous detail that the hotpot made by Origin Fragrance Tavern did not suit his tastes at all.

    Does the lord think you can find anything that Prime Minister Feng has never seen before? Even though this hotpot is crude, it's still more novel! " Zhu Guanghao pointed out.

    Zheng Yanming nodded his head: Then I'll call over the Origin Fragrance Tavern manager and discuss with him how to offer this hotpot.

    Zhu Guanghao quickly stopped him, The lord is confused!

    Zheng Yanming was stunned: What?

    I have seen this Origin Fragrance Tavern owner before. She is a woman who doesn't know what's good for herself. I had truly wanted to help him open their shop in the capital, but he didn't take my good intentions and even dug up one of the stewards from my residence. Zhu Guanghao said.

    Zheng Yanming didn't comment much on this matter. The only thing he was concerned about was how to offer the hotpot to Ye Zichen: Then what do you think we should do?

    If I tell her directly that I definitely can't do it, she might even bite off an adult in the end and eat this benefit herself. Zhu Guanghao analyzed.

    Since it's so troublesome, why don't we look for something else?

    Zhu Guanghao rolled his eyes. I have a way, but I need you to do me a small favor.

    What kind of help?

    How about this, Master help me take the Origin Fragrance Tavern under your name. At that time, in the name of the Lord, I will say that you specially made this hotpot for Prime Minister Feng. Right now, I have already told the elders that I can't count on anything else. I just hope that when you return to the capital, you will take care of my son." Zhu Guanghao put forward this suggestion with sincerity.

    Zheng Yanming was moved, especially when the other party mentioned the matter of returning to the capital: Okay, but what reason do I need to use to take away Origin Fragrance Tavern?

    Zhu Guanghao rolled his eyes: How about hiding a fugitive? At that time, you can just say that it was someone else who provided the information. Just in case, we can only investigate a bit." Of course, it didn't matter. Maybe the fugitive had heard the news and then ran away?

    Zheng Yanming thought for a moment: Sure. When the time comes, just use the people I've brought over.

    Subsequently, the two of them planned out what they were going to do and discussed until deep into the night. Only then did Zheng Yanming return to the magistrate court.

    The next day.

    Zheng Yanming arrived at the Origin Fragrance Tavern wearing casual clothes.

    First, he ordered a hot pot to taste it. Although it looked simple and crude, it tasted unique just as Zhu Guanghao said.

    After confirming that the hotpot could indeed be used as something to please Prime Minister Feng, Zheng Yanming stood up and shouted: Men! If there are any criminals in the Origin Fragrance Tavern who are wanted by the imperial government, then seal off the front and back doors for them and do not allow any of them to leave!

    Outside the door, at the command of the bailiffs, the doors and windows were completely surrounded. A team of people holding swords entered the hall, and the customers and waiters inside immediately panicked.

    CHAPTER 104 - SEARCH

    Yin Shiliu reflexively wanted to attack, but Yin Shishan, who was beside her, held her down. Don't act recklessly, let's see what's going on first.

    Yin Shiliu steadied her mind and turned around to look at Yin Shishan: I'll go tell Miss Wei first. Then, without anyone noticing, he jumped onto the second floor.

    Bang, bang, bang! Urgently knocking on the door, the three people who were studying the blueprints raised their heads.

    Without waiting for anyone to speak, Yin Shiliu knocked on the door and walked in. Miss Wei! Oh no, there are soldiers outside saying that there is a criminal wanted by the imperial court in our Origin Fragrance Tavern! Although these words were said to Wei Shuyu, it was at the same time a reminder to Jiang Rann.

    In the room, other than Jiang Rann, Wei Shuyu and Gu Yanshan's expressions changed at the same time.

    What's going on! Wei Shuyu hurriedly asked Yin Shiliu.

    Gu Yanshan secretly glanced at Jiang Rann beside her.

    Jiang Rann looked calm as he lowered his head. No one knew what he was thinking about.

    Just now, there was a guest who said that we had a fugitive after eating the hotpot. After that, the soldiers appeared and surrounded the door and windows, and a group of people with swords entered the hall. Yin Shiliu quickly explained the situation downstairs to Wei Shuyu.

    After Wei Shuyu finished listening, she calmed down. From Yin Shiliu's description, although the other party had come prepared, it was still uncertain whether or not there were any fugitives.

    Downstairs, looking at the servant holding the sword, some of them were trembling. Some of them boldly asked Zheng Yanming: This … Lord, I've lived in this county city for more than 30 years. I've never come out of this place, so it's impossible for me to be a fugitive. There are many people in the city who can testify to me. Can I go first?

    Zheng Yanming's target wasn't them, and he didn't want to involve too many citizens, so he waved his hand and let that person go.

    The others also saw the hope, so they all came up to explain the situation and testify to each other. Zheng Yanming said impatiently, Those who come to eat can leave, but the others are not allowed to leave!

    In an instant, only the shop assistant and Yin Shishan who was standing beside the counter remained in the Origin Fragrance Tavern.

    What are you doing! Zheng Yanming asked while looking at Yin Shishan, who didn't match the performance of the people around them.

    I'm the accountant here. Yin Shishan said in a low voice.

    Zheng Yanming nodded and stopped paying attention to him.

    Wei Shuyu led Yin Shiliu downstairs. Jiang Rann and Gu Yanshan remained upstairs.

    Zheng Yanming looked at the person who walked down with a dignified and serious expression: You must be the boss here, right?

    Wei Shuyu nodded and bowed towards him. I am Wei Shuyu, the owner of this Origin Fragrance Tavern. May I know who Master is?

    A bailiff came out from behind Zheng Yanming, My master is the patrolling officer of Yongping Mansion, Master Zheng Yanming.

    Lord Zheng, I wonder why you surrounded Origin Fragrance Tavern today. Is it possible that we've committed some sort of crime?

    Zheng Yanming looked at the calm and self-contained girl, thinking that Zhu Guanghao was right, it seemed that Wei Shuyu was not easy to deal with.

    I recently received news that someone in the Origin Fragrance Tavern saw a fugitive wanted by the imperial government, which is why I'm here to arrest him.

    Wei Shuyu frowned, Where did you get this news? Is the source reliable? Master, you brought people to surround Origin Fragrance Tavern, do you have a search warrant? "

    Zheng Yanming raised his chin: How can I tell you that I have a secret? As for the search warrant, it's an urgent matter, I'll make it up later.

    After hearing Zheng Yanming's words, Wei Shuyu understood that this was not an accident, but someone deliberately set him up.

    Upstairs.

    After Wei Shuyu had left, Gu Yanshan asked Jiang Rann, who had sat down again, Young Master Jiang, aren't you afraid that these people are looking for you?

    Why should I be afraid? Jiang Rann snorted: If the imperial government really knew I wasn't dead, then I definitely wouldn't be the one they're afraid of.

    Gu Yanshan choked, but thinking about it, it was indeed the same as what she said to Jiang Rann.

    Does Young Master Jiang really like Miss Wei? Gu Yanshan asked this question again.

    This time, Jiang Rann did not avoid the question but said affirmatively, Yes.

    Gu Yanshan frowned. Then how are you going to solve the problem of camouflage and keep it a secret from Miss Wei?

    Jiang Rann's expression froze and his gaze became distant: If she really likes that look of mine, then what's wrong with hiding it from her for the rest of her life? If you don't like... What was he going to do, tell the truth? Jiang Rann became uncertain for a moment.

    In the hall downstairs, Wei Shuyu and Zheng Yanming's conversation continued.

    Although there were people deliberately framing him, they didn't hurry to figure out who did it. The most important thing was to solve the crisis in front of them.

    Since that's the case, I will definitely cooperate with you. I wonder what this fugitive looks like? I remember all the shop assistants in the shop, so that Master can look for them easily. " Wei Shuyu smiled and took the initiative to make a convenient suggestion.

    This … Zheng Yanming frowned. How could he imagine going alone?

    "Could it be that Lord does not know the appearance of the fugitive as well? That would be difficult. Wei Shuyu spoke for the other party's sake.

    Zheng Yanming's expression was ugly. He didn't expect Wei Shuyu to be so eloquent. However, his goal today was to find a way to obtain the Origin Fragrance Tavern and not waste any more words with Wei Shuyu. "Since your appearance is unknown, then all the suspicious people in the building must be detained first. With the wave of Zheng Yanming's hand, the knife-wielding bailiff in the hall had to follow the stairs and the curtain behind him to the second floor and the backyard.

    Let's see who dares! Wei Shuyu's stern shout had truly brought out her anger. The bailiff stopped shouting and did not dare to act rashly. He turned around and looked at Zheng Yanming.

    Zheng Yanming was also shocked. Previously, Wei Shuyu had been talking to him politely and gently. He thought that Wei Shuyu was just a weak girl, he didn't expect her to be that good when she got angry.

    Don't tell me you want to go against the government! Zheng Yanming asked in a deep voice.

    Wei Shuyu looked at him and snorted. There are guests in my building today. I'm afraid that the lord will disturb him and make things difficult for him.

    Zheng Yanming obviously did not believe that there was someone here that he could not afford to offend: Who is more important than catching a fugitive? Even if they did offend someone, I, Zheng Yanming, will bear the consequences.

    Then, ignoring the other party, he brought his men up to the second floor and specifically headed towards their private guest room. A few guest rooms were opened, and even if no one was around, the bailiff would go in and open the wardrobe to check if anyone was hiding inside.

    Wei Shuyu frowned. She looked like they were about to search for Jiang Rann and Gu Yanshan's room.

    She wasn't worried about anything else, she was just afraid that Jiang Rann would be scared when he saw the guards with sabers and get hurt in his panic.

    Looking at the door that was about to open, Wei Shuyu tightly gripped her sleeves.

    CHAPTER 105 - LOSSES

    Creak. The door opened, but it wasn't the door Wei Shuyu had been so nervous about.

    The sound came from a place not too far away. Due to the commotion, the bailiff retracted his hand that was about to push open the door and looked in the direction of the sound vigilantly.

    What is this? Steward Shen's voice came from the room that opened.

    Steward Shen. Seeing him, Wei Shuyu finally heaved a sigh of relief.

    Master Zheng, you acted without a warrant, aren't you afraid of being punished? Steward Shen didn't wait for Zheng Yanming to speak and was the first to attack.

    Zheng Yanming was slightly bewildered. Previously, when Wei Shuyu said that there was an important guest, he thought it was just an excuse. However, looking at Wei Shuyu's relieved expression when she saw him, it seemed that the person in front of her really did have some background.

    You are? Zheng Yanming asked politely.

    Steward Shen didn't say anything and just threw a tile to the other party.

    After Zheng Yanming saw the sign, he almost dropped it. On it was written the official photo of the position that Ning King assumed when he came to provide relief.

    Looking at Zheng Yanming's expression, Steward Shen snorted: My master Yan has sent me here for an errand, and since I was well acquainted with Miss Wei, I decided to stay at Origin Fragrance Tavern for a period of time. Who would have thought that I would encounter such a situation today, Master Zheng, do you think I should report your actions to my master?

    Zheng Yanming's face turned pale and his forehead started to sweat. Although he always wanted to show his face in front of the officials in high positions in the capital, he never wanted to use this method.

    No … No need, today's matter is probably because of the messenger's mistake, affecting Origin Fragrance Tavern's business, and also disturbing many citizens. When I return, I will definitely severely punish the person who sent the message! Then, this official will take his leave first! As he spoke, he cupped his hands together and prepared to leave.

    Does Lord Zheng have anything to say to Miss Wei? Steward Shen reminded him.

    Zheng Yanming stopped and turned around to look at the smiling Wei Shuyu. He made a smile that was uglier than crying as he said: Miss Wei, I'm really sorry. This is my fault. Please forgive me.

    Wei Shuyu nodded her head and said with understanding, Your excellency, this is also for the sake of the imperial government. I am just a common citizen, it is already a pity that I am unable to help Your Excellency find a fugitive. I only hope that Senior Zheng can come to Origin Fragrance Tavern to investigate after you find out whether the information is real or fake. Otherwise, this little store of mine will not be able to handle three to four turns of events.

    I have remembered Miss Wei's suggestion. I will take my leave now.

    After watching Zheng Yanming lead his men away, Wei Shuyu let out a sigh of relief. She turned around and thanked Steward Shen. Thank you, Steward Shen, for today's matters.

    Steward Shen put away the official's badge and nodded towards Wei Shuyu, Miss Wei, no need to thank me. My master left me here to deal with this kind of thing.

    Then help me thank Young Master Yan. Wei Shuyu said. Otherwise, with Zheng Yanming's attitude today, it would be impossible for them to finish the fight in a short period of time.

    Steward Shen frowned. I think Zhu Guanghao must have done it this time. Besides him, no one else can get a dignified patrolman to do such a thing.

    I really didn't think that Zhu Guanghao would be able to get even a patrolling officer to help. Wei Shuyu frowned. If that was the case, it would be very disadvantageous for her to fight Zhu Guanghao.

    How could he have that kind of ability? Steward Shen said, He just relied on his past status as a member of Prime Minister Feng's residence. Actually speaking, he was the same. Just now, he had relied on the fact that Ning King was behind him in order to let Zheng Yanming leave.

    This Prime Minister Feng is really a disaster, Wei Shuyu thought.

    Elder sister, is everything alright outside? Jiang Rann secretly opened the door and asked Wei Shuyu who was standing in front of him: Can I come out now?

    Sure. Wei Shuyu nodded.

    On the other side.

    After Zheng Yanming left, he angrily looked for Zhu Mansion.

    After seeing Zhu Guanghao, she didn't care about pleasantries anymore and directly questioned him, Why didn't you tell me that Wei Shuyu is related to Ning King?

    What! Zhu Guanghao was also surprised when he heard this. How did a peasant girl like her get involved with Ning King? Are you mistaken?

    Is Steward Shen holding the official photo of the time when Ning King came to provide relief? Is there anything wrong with that? In order to ascertain the identity of an official, one needed official backing. The officials were divided into two parts. One was the letter of appointment, and the other was proof of identity. The ID certificate was the official photo.

    Zhu Guanghao frowned. No wonder he was indifferent to the benefits given to him at that time. It turned out that the other party was already linked to Ning King. Since that was the case, he might not be able to make a move against Origin Fragrance Tavern anymore. Thinking of this, Zhu Guanghao was in an even worse mood.

    This is my mistake, I didn't expect Wei Shuyu to be so well-hidden. Zhu Guanghao took the initiative to take the blame, making Zheng Yanming's face look a lot better.

    Furthermore, he suddenly recalled that the water wheel from before seemed to have been created by a woman, and her name seemed to be Wei Shuyu. Zheng Yanming slapped his head and told Zhu Guanghao about his discovery.

    Zhu Guanghao had just returned to his hometown, so he wasn't clear about this matter. After hearing Zheng Yanming's words, County Magistrate Lee pondered for a moment before replying, County Magistrate Lee should be clear about this matter.

    Zheng Yanming nodded: Then I'll go back and ask.

    Origin Fragrance Tavern.

    After Jiang Rann came out, anger flashed across his eyes as he looked at the messy other rooms. He took the initiative to pack it up with the shop assistant.

    Gu Yanshan followed him out. Upon seeing this scene, she frowned.

    I'm sorry Madame Gu, but I don't think we'll have time to discuss the blueprints today. Wei Shuyu said apologetically.

    What kind of person does Miss Wei think I am? Am I the kind of person who doesn't understand logic? Gu Yanshan glanced at Wei Shuyu expectantly, then helped to clean up the room.

    They probably won't come back. Gu Yanshan said confidently.

    Hopefully. Wei Shuyu frowned but she was not optimistic. Perhaps there would be other things waiting for her next time.

    Miss Wei, a lot of the guests left today without paying. What should we do? With a bitter face, Yin Shiliu brought the account book and abacus over.

    Wei Shuyu frowned and thought for a moment. There is a notice board outside saying that due to this accident, the customer was frightened and that the bill for today is free. Non-members can apply for a Bronze membership card for free. It's already a free 3 times hot pot set meal from the member.

    "But, we can't be sure
