"Miss Zhang, there is no need to worry about others, I only need a word from you now."
Hua Rujin looked at her firmly: "The more determined you are to rescue Mr. Li, the more confident I will be to reverse this case."
Seeing how confident she was, Miss Zhang was no longer timid and gritted her teeth and replied: "As long as he can live, I will not hesitate even if he is broken into pieces."
"Okay, I know what Miss Zhang said."
Hua Rujin glanced at her whole body and asked hesitantly: "Cui Cui and I are going to visit Young Master Li in prison. Does Miss Zhang have anything to say or anything that she wants us to bring to Young Master Li?"
Miss Zhang naturally understood the profound meaning of her words, and hurriedly took out half a broken jade pendant from her arms and handed it to Cuicui's hand, and said in a deep voice:
"Cui Cui, this is the token of love that your young master gave me. Unfortunately, it was broken by my mother. Please tell your young master that although this jade is incomplete, it is still a flawless and beautiful jade. My heart
Just like this jade, I don't care about other people's opinions, I just hope that he can be safe and smooth in this life."
Cuicui took the jade pendant with tears in her eyes and looked at the flowers like brocade with a solemn expression.
"Let's go."
Hua Rujinwen smiled and patted Cuicui on the shoulder. Before leaving, she said to Miss Zhang: "Please be patient, Miss Zhang. I will definitely not let you down."
"Thank you, Miss Hua."
Miss Zhang bowed to her solemnly, and the two said goodbye.
Hua Rujin led Cuicui back, and began to think about how to turn this case around safely, so that the young master of the Li family could be saved and Miss Zhang would not be criticized too much.
In fact, Cuicui had never been sure. After walking some distance away from her, she suddenly asked: "Miss Hua, do you really think that as long as my young master is willing to change his story, you can overturn the case for him?"
After glancing at her cautiously, the little girl sighed again and again: "As Miss Zhang said, she and my young master have indeed done something inappropriate. If her mother is killed together, then not only will my young master be in danger, but also my young master will be in danger.
I'm afraid Miss Zhang will also die and be immersed in a pig cage."
"She won't."
Hua Rujin smiled and shook her head: "If the Zhang family's wife was a person who valued the family's reputation too seriously, she would not have allowed your young master to have a private meeting with her daughter, let alone sue Mr. Li to the court and commit suicide.
I will try to calm things down quietly."
"That's true."
Cuicui curled her lips: "My wife just thinks Mrs. Zhang is shameless. She spends all day instigating my young master to have secret meetings with Miss Zhang, so she doesn't want to get married. Now I'm afraid she thinks that the wealthy businessman can allow her to do so."
That’s why I gave up my young master for more gold, silver, and silk.”
"So how could such a person abandon his daughter for the sake of reputation?"
Hua Rujin's eyes paused for a moment: "She just regards her daughter as a cash cow."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a carriage parked on the path beside the green shade.
Looking closely, I saw a slender figure sitting on the edge of the carriage, watching quietly.
Through the hazy moonlight, Hua Rujin quickly recognized the familiar brushstrokes and called out slightly in surprise: "Master Ye? Why are you here?"
Ye Chengguan jumped out of the carriage unhurriedly, walked over, and said meaningfully: "Miss Hua is really courageous. She goes out to have a private meeting with a beautiful woman in the middle of the night, and she is not afraid of being plotted against."
"Ahem, I only have a few dozen kilograms of meat on my body, so what's the point?"
Hua Rujin looked at him with a stern expression: "It is Mr. Ye who has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he should be more cautious in everything."
After hearing this, Ye Chengguan immediately thought of the strange things he had heard in Jiang'an County in the past two days.
However, he didn't say much, he just smiled faintly at Hua Rujin and said, "I'm going back to the inn, and I'll take you back with me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he opened the carriage curtain with a light movement.
Hua Rujin hesitated for a moment, and was about to lead Cuicui into the car when she suddenly heard the light sound of horse hooves coming from the night.
She turned around and saw a familiar carriage driving straight towards her.
The car arrived before it stopped.
"cousin."
As a clear voice sounded, Hua Rujin saw her elegant cousin jump out of the carriage.
"Cousin, why are you here too?"
Hua Rujin was a little surprised when she saw Shu Jinxuan striding towards her.
Before Shu Jinxuan could speak, his follower had a wicked smile on his face and reined in the horse and said jokingly: "Miss Cousin, my young master is worried about you. He said that you have been away from Jiangling City for three to five days and have not returned yet, so he ordered me to
I packed some packages and hurried to Jiang'an County."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Shu Jinxuan glared at the coachman angrily, and first bowed respectfully to Ye Chenggui, but seeing the two of them still staying together in the middle of the night, he felt a little concerned, and deliberately walked to Hua Rujin, looking serious.
said:
"Cousin, you came out in a hurry and didn't pack the package. I brought you two changes of clothes for your aunt."
After saying that, she quickly asked the boy to take the two pieces of clothing he had picked out on the road and put them into her hands.
Then he cupped his fists at Ye Chengguan and said, "Young Master Ye has been taking care of my cousin these days."
Hua Rujin was lost in thought while holding the package, when her elegant cousin hurriedly urged: "Let's go, cousin, I'll take you back to the post house."
Ye Chengguan also felt a little dissatisfied with the words of the master and servant of the Shu family.
The two of them seemed to treat Miss Hua's family poorly, and stopped Shu Jinxuan casually: "Master Shu came to Jiang'an County for the first time, and he hasn't found a place to stay yet. It's been a long journey, so there's no need to worry about it.
The flower girl has returned."
"Oh, it doesn't matter."
Shu Jinxuan waved his hand carelessly: "I'll send my cousin back and let the post house arrange a room at will."
"Inn. No room."
Ye Chengguan coldly threw out a few words, pushed Hua Rujin into the carriage, and solemnly ordered: "Miss Hua is now a distinguished guest of this county. She has a heavy responsibility and cannot tolerate any mistakes. The county will be well."
Take care of me, Mr. Shu, please go back with peace of mind."
Then, he whipped his horse, left Shu Jinxuan and his servant and left directly.
Shu Jinxuan and the groom both looked confused.
"Although Jiang'an County is not as prosperous as Jiangling City, such a large post house cannot accommodate you alone, right?"
The boy pursed his lips and said, "Master Ye, I'm afraid he didn't do it on purpose."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Shu Jinxuan glanced at the boy angrily and guessed that Zhuang Yuan Lang was dissatisfied with the boy's words and had to get into the carriage to find another place to stay.
Hua Rujin looked out of the car window. In just a moment, her elegant cousin's carriage had been pulled far away, and it completely disappeared from sight in a short time.
The carriage was speeding along, causing the entire carriage to jolt a bit.
She always felt that the No. 1 Scholar had a seizure today, which was not normal, but she couldn't say anything more.
Cuicui clung to the inner wall of the carriage in fear, staring at Miss Hua who was in a daze, and asked in a low voice: "Miss Hua, are Mr. Ye in a hurry?"
"He might be."
Hua Rujin whispered back, and then heard Ye Chengguan softly shouting to stop the horse.
