Mrs. Kong was speechless, finally understanding Sheng Wan's helpless mood after being offended by Gu Huaizhi's anger.

She took a deep breath.

"The madam is waiting for the girl. If nothing happens, sir, why don't you go with us."

Sheng Qinan immediately said: "Something happened temporarily, and my brother and I had to go out."

Gu Huaizhi was a measured person. Mrs. Kong didn't ask any more questions at the moment, but she was still worried: "Then the slave took the girl away. The young master has not recovered yet, so he must be more careful."

Gu Huaizhi hummed lightly.

Changfeng pushed the wheelchair and the group walked out.

Go through the promenade and around the small bridge.

When they were far away, Gu Huaizhi looked uncertain and closed his eyes.

"You have nothing to say?"

Naturally, this was not said to Changfeng.

Sheng Qinan turns the beads.

"I shouldn't talk too much?"

Gu Huaizhi ignored him.

Sheng Qinan frowned and asked cautiously: "Is it wrong for me to make random speculations and interfere with my brother's affairs?"

Gu Huaizhi didn't respond.

Sheng Qinan was puzzled.

Give him a slap in the face!

He could only look at Changfeng.

Changfeng pushed the wheelchair carefully, paying attention to the stones on the road, for fear that Gu Huaizhi would be bumped. He didn't even look at him.

Sheng Qinan was so worried that he simply broke the jar and threw it.

"You don't understand amorous feelings, so there's nothing I can do about it."

Gu Huaizhi sighed softly, then rubbed his eyebrows: "The accessories on that woman's hair are beads only found in Japan."

However, Japan has always produced its own products for its own use, and has transactions with the outside world. Even if there are merchants who resell them, the price is very expensive.

How can someone from a troupe background afford one?

Sheng Qinan paused while twirling the beads in his hand.

"Japanese?"

Gu Huaizhi: "Japan and the Chi family have long been colluding."

Sheng Qinan lost his voice: "You mean she was sent by the Chi family?"

Since the battle between Japan and Mu's army in Tongshui, when Mu Youde directly took the head of the Japanese crown prince, Japan withdrew its troops and its vitality was severely damaged.

Only a few days after the Mu family's father and son returned to Lin'an, the spy sent to the Chi family reported secretly that His Majesty, who had lost his beloved son, had private contacts with Chi Yushi.

There is no other reason.

However, one of them intended to help his nephew to rise to power and then monopolize the affairs of the government. The other offered help and only asked Chi Yushi to agree to give him one person after he got his wish.

He wanted to cut Mu Youde into pieces and avenge his own son.

In this way, cooperation was achieved.

Gu Huaizhi said lightly: "We have to check to find out if she is. If she is not, then find out who gave her the beads."

Sheng Qinan was thoughtful.

Gu Huaizhi: "This matter will also be handed over to you for trial."

"Why is it me again!"

Gu Huaizhi said as if he hadn't heard anything and said calmly.

"Ten days ago, someone wearing a human skin mask pretended to be Prince Jing and appeared in the Jiangnan area."

"What?"

"The person has been arrested, and he will be the first person you want to interrogate later."

…

This room,

Ruan Zhen patted the frightened Tan Yun comfortingly.

Tan Yun glanced at Mrs. Kong who was leading the way, and murmured in a low voice: "This is... a bit cruel indeed."

Cruel?

Also... indeed.

"Don't panic. The people are already far away. If you don't rush into him, he won't punish you for no reason."

only……

Ruan Zhen pursed her lips.

The fact that I don't like women's voices is really puzzling.

Sheng Wan's intention to get Gu Huaizhi to marry was no longer just a day or two.

But with Gu Huaizhi's eccentricities, could it be possible that he would marry a mute?

However, this matter had nothing to do with her, so Ruan Zhen quickly put it behind her and stopped thinking about it.

When Ruan Zhen arrived, the ladies were serving tea.

In addition to Mrs. Sheng whom she had met, there were three other women sitting next to her.

Sheng Wan had been looking forward to it for a long time, and when he saw her coming, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Come here and be my godmother."

She blessed her body, bowed to all the ladies, and then stepped forward on lotus steps.

"Godmother."

The girl's skin is like cream, and her eyebrows are furrowed. She is obviously living in a boudoir without the guidance of her elders, but she doesn't show any timidity at this moment.

Sheng Wan: Satisfied!

Even though Mrs. Sheng had met Ke Ruan Zhen, she was once again amazed, let alone the two ladies beside her.

One of the round-faced women couldn't help but look Ruan Zhen up and down.

"I said you have such a bad temper, why do you want to take in an adopted daughter? You have always been very lucky. You have never suffered any injustice when you married the Duke of the country. Your son has a lot of potential, and now you have adopted an adopted daughter with such a appearance.

, I can’t even go to heaven proudly.”

Before Ruan Zhen came, they had already gotten the words out of Mrs. Sheng's mouth.

It turned out to be the cousin girl from the Yong'an Hou Mansion who had a miserable life experience.

Look at her appearance, not to mention how miserable she is, they would be happy to be their adopted daughter!!!

The round-faced woman looked at Ruan Zhen and an idea flashed through her mind.

"Son, are you married?"

Ruan Zhen whispered: "No."

Round-faced woman: "My son..."

Sheng Wan frowned! He immediately interrupted her: "We are still young, and I still want to let go of the pain for a few years. Don't make any mistakes."

Sheng Wan spat at her.

Who are you talking about?

Then he turned to Ruan Zhen and said, "This is the wife of the Minister of Household Affairs. She is my handkerchief. You can call her Aunt Mei."

She pointed to another woman who was chewing melon seeds and continued to introduce to Ruan Zhen.

"This is the mistress of the Yi family. You have also met her son Yi Lin."

Ruan Zhen couldn't help but look over.

Mother Yi smiled and nodded: "My son is a bit picky, please bear with him."

Aunt Mei: "Some? I think it's like digging into the sky."

Mrs. Sheng also had a deep understanding of this matter. She nodded immediately.

"Last time, I didn't have enough money. I was one tael short, so your son asked me to sign an IOU."

With that said, she took out the gift box that she had been preparing for several days and said softly to Ruan Zhen.

"Brother Qi has this longevity lock, and so does Brother Huai. They were given by the old man when they were born. Although the old man is gone, the rules have not been abolished. This is the wish of my uncle and aunt."
