Shen Zhimo recognized that Aunt Wu was Wu Jin'e, the robber wanted by Qi State, got up and went out to call a guard: "Do me a favor." Then she whispered to him for a long time. The guard turned around and left. Shen Zhimo returned to the house and said with a smile:
"Today at the theater, I caught a glimpse of the other four playbooks they sent. They had Mr. Wu's seal on them. His name was Zhaochi? Zhao means Zhao who returns to heaven, and Zhanchi will be pure Chi.
"
Wu Jin'e said: "That's his character. His single name is Li."
"Oh - that's right." Shen Zhimo thought for a while, "Well, that's right. He must have used your last name."
"The girl is joking." Wu Jin'e said, "His surname is indeed Wu."
"I guess his surname is not Wu." Shen Zhimo said, "He is a Confucian scholar. Confucian scholars would avoid marrying a woman with the same surname as a wife. He probably changed his surname after the third child picked you to be his wife."
Wu Jin'e smiled and said: "The girl is wrong again. The slave family did not follow the master when she married him."
Shen Zhimo was slightly startled. Jia Cong said: "Don't worry about this matter. No matter what Mr. Wu's surname is, he must have been forced to marry a wife under some pressure, so he looked around for a woman with poor conditions to marry him. Who knows how lucky he is?
Okay. I thought that marrying a disgraceful woman would serve as a cover for the rest of my life, but unexpectedly, this woman didn’t know what to do and she really took him as her husband.”
Wu Jin'e repeated in a daze: "I don't know how to behave. I really treat him as my husband...I really treat him as my husband...Isn't he my husband?"
Jia Cong said without sincerity: "I'm sorry, he doesn't regard you as his wife."
Wu Jin'e's face turned cold. After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "They are all those shameless actors!"
It turns out that Wu Jin'e's family has been prominent on the green forest road since her grandfather's generation. Both her grandmother and mother were robbed. Her mother was originally a government official's daughter, but her grandfather was committed crime and sold into a brothel, and was later raped by her father.
The two parents were married for many years and only gave birth to one daughter. However, her mother was very clever and managed to win over her father tightly. Wu Jin'e was extremely talented and could learn everything quickly and was three points ahead of her parents.
He had a high spirit and was very arrogant when he was young. He finally lost his face in a fight. After that, his temper became more and more fierce.
Five years ago, Wu Jin'e robbed a big escort by herself. She had handled many cases in the past, but she had never been arrested by the government. Only this time she hurt a wealthy family and was related to the King of Qi. The owner was angry.
The head of the family was furious at the governor's office and insisted on catching her. Wu Jin'e ran for her life for two years before she realized that she was just lucky and didn't mess with the big shots. It's hard for the official government to catch anyone.
Until three years ago, she hid in a secluded town and lived peacefully for a few months. Then she set up a very small stall selling groceries. One day, she happened to meet the young master of a wealthy family in the town when he was out strolling, shaking his head and chanting:
He wrote two lines of a poem, but the first two lines at the end could not be continued. Wu Jin'e had learned poetry from her mother since she was a child, and she had a few drops of ink in her belly, so she continued it for him.
The next day a Confucian scholar came, claiming to be the teacher of the young master's family, and asked Wu Jin'e not to compose poems for his students in the future. Together with the young master, he went back and claimed that everything he had written and what Wu Jin'e had continued was his own, and he would listen to his poems.
Upon hearing this, the gentleman knew that the last two sentences were written by someone else. Under questioning, the young master confessed that Wu Jin'e had come out. A few days later, people on the street said that the gentleman had made the young master angry. Wu Jin'e still felt a little melancholy.
Unexpectedly, two months later, a matchmaker came to Wu Jin'e's house and asked Wu Jin'e to marry him. She said that the husband's surname was Wu, and he had found another teaching job in a neighboring county and wanted to marry a daughter-in-law. Wu Jin'e had been wandering for half his life, and suddenly his wife
She couldn't believe the happy event. She thought about it again and again, and washed off the makeup on her face to cover the scars to show it to the matchmaker. This was extremely dangerous, and if it was not guaranteed, the police would be called. Fortunately, the matchmaker didn't pay attention to the drawings at all, and was only worried about taking the pictures for herself.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu didn't even care when he didn't have the money to thank the matchmaker. Wu Jin'e felt like she was in a dream.
She never expected that Mr. Wu would be fine in everything except consummating the marriage with her. When asked why, he said that his family was poor and he might not be able to raise children. Wu Jin'e also hid a fortune, so she considered day and night whether to take it out.
Two people living together.
When the two got married, Mr. Wu was still teaching in a private school. Not long after, he received a letter and was very happy for several days. A few days later, Mr. Wu's uncle passed by the county and took a special look at them.
I like Wu Jin'e. Before leaving, my uncle gave Mr. Wu a roll of banknotes. Mr. Wu didn't tell his wife, but his money suddenly became lighter. He resigned at the end of the month.
The couple moved to the capital and lived in an inn. Mr. Wu couldn't find anything to do for a while, so he often went out to hang out. On the third day, he accidentally listened to a play with the spring class, and Mr. Wu fascinated Jiang Yuhan.
The spring class bought a house next door. Both Wu Jin'e and You Sanjie knew what was going on with the two men. Wu Jin'e had no way to deal with her man, and You Sanjie pointed to Mr. Wu to help teach her son how to read and write, and they got along well.
However, everyone knew that Jiang Yuhan was attracted by His Highness the Third Highness. Mr. Wu was so bold and dared to touch His Highness's people that he had to provoke people to investigate his origins. Wu Jin'e thought the visitor was a bandit and had a fight with them but was captured.
It fell into the hands of the Third Highness. Later, the Third Highness discovered that Wu Jin'e was a talented person and gradually reused him. Wu Jin'e also felt that she was very happy to help her master and became more and more loyal. In order to retaliate against Jiang Yuhan's seduction of her husband, she abducted Jiang Yuhan's only son.
Brother Jiang Jing.
After listening to the summary, everyone was silent for a while. Jia Cong shrugged: "This is Mr. Wu's fault. If he wants a cover, he can find a mirror-grinding woman, and both of them will be fine. It would be better for him to find a normal woman.
.Can you be willing to be his co-wife for the rest of your life?"
The guards that Shen Zhimo had just sent out had already returned. Seeing a little silence in the hall, he came in and said, "Master Lu said that Miss Shen guessed it right." Shen Zhimo raised his eyebrows.
Jia Cong hurriedly asked her: "How come you guessed it right again? Is this the same as what you thought?"
Shen Zhimo said leisurely: "I think I probably guessed right." He said seriously, "Have you ever noticed that Mr. Wu's features look similar to someone else?"
Jia Cong patted his forehead: "I'm very tired right now. Just say it bluntly and don't let me bother to guess."
Shen Zhimo turned to Wu Jin'e and said, "You just said that others say you are a hen that doesn't lay eggs. Who is this 'other person'?"
Wu Jin'e smiled bitterly: "There are all the neighbors, including our master. Complaining about the lack of a child in the slave family ties up the man's heart, so that he can spend less time with the actor."
Shen Zhimo tilted his head: "I'm afraid it's not just complaining, but also blaming."
Wu Jin'e lowered her head and said nothing. For a long time, tears rolled down her eyes, and she only said one word. "Yes."
"I must have blamed him quite a lot."
"Yes." Wu Jin'e gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know how good that actor is. He seems to have lost his soul by bewitching his master."
Shen Zhimo took a sip of tea and said, "You are wrong. Your master forced you to give birth to a child for Mr. Wu, not for the sake of Mr. Jiang." Wu Jin'e was stunned. Shen Zhimo said calmly, "If he really cares about Mr. Jiang, he could have done it quietly.
I want to kill Mr. Wu and then frame it on you. You are a wanted criminal! Think about it for yourself, is it easy?"
Wu Jin'e was startled: "Yes, it's really easy." Only then did she realize that something was wrong. "Then...according to the girl's wishes?"
Shen Zhimo raised his eyes and scanned the people in the room, and said softly: "The young master who was in the theater this morning has very similar features to Mr. Wu."
Jia Cong only felt a row of crows flying over his head. Behind the crows was the endless Malle Desert, with a hundred thousand alpacas running on the desert. After a long time, he bared his teeth and said, "Is this the situation I'm imagining now?"
Shen Zhimo glanced at him: "How do I know what you are thinking? Anyway, I know that the young master's father's name is Zhao Huan. Yes, it is the Huan next to the word "火"." Jia Cong covered his face with his hands and made a "dong" sound.
He poured it on the coffee table next to him.
Wu Jin'e was confused: "What is the girl talking about?"
Jia Cong sat up with a stiff face: "Let me ask you, during the chaos in the theater this morning, who did you want to assassinate when you ambush so many green forest masters?"
Wu Jin'e shook her head: "The slave family doesn't know."
"Has your master ever told you that once this is successful, you will be able to get rid of Leader Jiang completely and stay with your husband forever?"
Wu Jin'e was surprised: "Sir, does it count if you can pinch him?"
"I'm going!" Jia Cong breathed out and held his forehead, "Today is so fucking exciting."
Shen Zhimo said: "I bothered that brother just now to ask Lord Lu if Duke Yansheng only has Kong Yunxian as his son, and he said yes."
Jia Cong said feebly: "I was wrong, King Qi's son can still have someone with two brushes. It's a pity for your master. If you don't do green forest business with Xie Jing, you won't be able to succeed if you are so courageous."
A light flashed in Wu Jin'e's eyes: "Could it be that the slave's husband is a man from a wealthy family?"
"I'm afraid it is." Jia Cong looked up at the sky, "It's a super wealthy family. No wealthy family in the past five thousand years has ever been this big."
Wu Jin'e was stunned: "Then...then his uncle..."
Jia Cong shook his head, rested for a while, raised his neck and drank the tea before saying: "Mr. Wu can't stay at home because he was born with broken sleeves - it's just that he was born in another family, he was born with twins."
It's just a matter of sexual orientation. But he was naturally bent. So he left his hometown and changed his name to "Li". Their family... would definitely not help him. Life was hard, and even the little boy who taught the rich man's family in the countryside...
Young masters are all so troublesome. Mr. Wu enjoyed many blessings when he was young, and grew up listening to all kinds of flattery. Therefore, the life away from home was quite difficult."
Shen Zhimo frowned and said, "I don't think he looks like someone wandering around outside."
Jia Cong said: "Probably he hasn't been away from home for too long. Three years ago, he must have just endured the hardship and had not gotten used to it. If he had been wandering for ten years, he would have gone through many changes. At that time, Mr. Wu was very hesitant. He wanted to go home.
I also know that I can't go back unless I change my broken sleeves. However, sexual orientation is something that can't be changed. You can just marry any woman to show your appearance, but you're afraid that the clan won't believe it. But by chance, Aunt Wu, you bumped into her. You see
, you are literate, have a gentle temper, can work as a female worker, and can please the elders. Except for the scars on your face and your age, everything else is suitable. His family advocates marrying a virtuous wife, age is not a problem, and appearance is not a problem.
The value is not a problem. However, he still dare not return to his hometown for fear of being discovered. He just sent a letter to his family to attract his uncle to come to see you. How can the clan not be happy that he is willing to return from his lost way? How can he turn a blind eye?
Watching him suffer poverty?"
Shen Zhimo thought for a long time, frowned and said: "According to you, the young master that the third child wants to assassinate today is the young master. But they have many family members! Even if the young master is gone, will Yan Shenggong take his turn?
"
"Obviously, we are not prepared to take the position of Duke Yan now. Otherwise," Jia Cong glanced at Wu Jin'e, "Aunt Wu must have a boy." Wu Jin'e shivered inexplicably. "Assassination does not necessarily require killing, you can suffer.
He was seriously injured and died of illness a few years later. When trouble broke out, he became very maneuverable. The third child held Jiang Yuhan in his left hand and Wu Jin'e in his right hand. Mr. Wu had no choice but to let him control him, so that he could become the third hand in time.
It’s a trump card. And it’s a hidden trump card.”
Wu Jin'e looked at them for a long time and asked in a low voice: "May I ask, what kind of person is Yan Shenggong?"
Shen Zhimo also wondered: "How come you don't know? Aren't you literate?"
Liu Xiaoqi interjected from the side: "She is not a Confucian scholar, so she doesn't know what is strange about Yan Shenggong? Even the King of Qi doesn't know where the mountains and seas are."
"It makes sense." Jia Cong thought, "I'm afraid this third child has to pay attention to his ideas, he is quite sinister. Maybe he has the ability to ask the King of Qi to make Mr. Wu the Holy Duke of Yan? After all, he has formed an alliance with the Ma family.
." He suddenly straightened up, "Let me ask you, is it you who is the Bai Wuchang who always posts green posts?"
Wu Jin'e smiled sweetly: "The words were written by the slave family. Well, Brother Jing is usually the one who takes care of things." She sighed falsely, "What can the slave family do? No one wants the face of the slave family if they are given away.
.Nothing can be compared with that child, who is clean and beautiful, and with just a few words, others will feel compassion in their hearts. He acts like a spoiled child, and all those reckless men obey him, which is better than the imperial edict."
"That's right. What he learned in the troupe was how to serve the nobles. It's not easy to deal with the green forest and grass." Jia Cong's mouth twitched, "Those people are serious and have never even seen a high-ranking oiran. You guys
If you give me a mallet, they will treat it as a needle. Regarding the Green Forest incident under Lao San, it was you who came up with the idea to write the script, and Brother Jiang Jing stepped in to act?"
"Sometimes I cover my face." Wu Jin'e said, "No one knows whether Bai Wuchang is a boy or a girl."
Jia Cong nodded: "You must know a lot. Xiaoqi, you can ask later."
Liu Xiaoqi was closing her eyes to rest her mind, and said without opening her eyes after hearing this: "You are thinking of me. Didn't you just tell me that I would interrogate you?"
Jia Cong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to him: "Good brother, it's not me. The story just now is so amazing. Besides, it doesn't require any interrogation skills, right? I can do low-difficulty things, but I can't do high-difficulty things.
Well."
"Go!" Liu Xiaoqi glanced at him, "You're just afraid of trouble. Don't you care? Why do you ask so clearly?"
"Lu Jian is a good kid. I want to help his uncle, Mr. Lu." Jia Cong said, "The main reason is that I'm afraid that the third child may have other plans."
