The rain fell so hard that it felt like someone had stabbed her. Jiang Wu got up from the bed, squinted her eyes and put on her clothes. Mo Hua came in with hot water. She still remembered Jiang Wu's previous instructions. She said: "
Miss, those outside things you asked me to inquire about have now come to fruition."
Jiang Wu had previously asked her to help inquire about the matter of Luo Shilang. Because her current status was really inconvenient for her to inquire everywhere with great fanfare, she asked Mo Hua to do it for her.
Mo Hua first put the water basin on the shelf, and while waiting for Jiang Wu to wash up, he said: "I only heard the rumors about the specific matter. It is said that Nalushi Lang is usually very humble, and he never thought that he would be involved.
In such a matter, he is just a minister, and there are rumors that he has something to do with Prince Ping."
Jiang Wu frowned, is this so simple?
Jiang Wu asked: "So this imperial examination case was done by Luo Shilang together with Prince Ping? The purpose was to control the government?"
Who knew that when Mo Hua heard this, he was also stunned for a moment: "What imperial examination case? Who dares to interfere in such a big matter as the imperial examination? Nowadays, the rumors are all about corruption. As the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Luo Shilang embezzled a lot of money.
It’s a small sum of money, but the part about Prince Ping is all spread by people in the market, and no one knows whether it’s true or not. Prince Ping is a dignified prince, so I guess he shouldn’t be short of this little money.”
Jiang Wu was completely stunned: "What? Corruption?"
Mo Hua nodded: "Yes, Miss, did you just talk about the imperial examination? I have never heard anything related to the imperial examination. I just heard that the Minister Luo once served as an examiner for the imperial examination."
Jiang Wu was stunned. She felt her voice was hoarse, as if something was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say a single word. "The corruption matter has been decided? Besides...
…Have you ever heard of Yang Zhong?”
As expected, Mo Hua shook his head in confusion: "Who is Yang Zhong? I have never heard of this person."
Jiang Wu withdrew her gaze, sighed softly, and waved her hand: "No, there is no need to inquire about this matter anymore."
Although Mo Hua didn't understand why, he still nodded blankly.
After noon, Song Qi came to the door again. Today she was wearing a cherry pink peony dark pattern robe, a rose pattern blouse, and carrying a food box in her hand.
After Jiang Wu greeted her, he ordered Mo Hua to serve her tea. After serving tea, Jiang Wu asked everyone to leave.
"This matter has been concluded, but your reputation may still be... irrecoverable," Jiang Wu said.
Song Qi didn't care about this, she shook her head: "The reason why I came to beg you in the first place was actually because of Liu Liu. What happened back then was probably a bit strange. I don't really care about my reputation. I really care.
The thing actually belonged to Wan Liuliu, after all, it was her husband who died."
She sighed, blew the fine leaves on the tea surface, and said slowly: "Liu Liu told me everything last night. I don't blame her, and I can't blame you. She went out of her way to
I made some cakes and asked me to bring them to you to say thank you for helping her solve the case."
Jiang Wu waved his hand: "How can I say thank you? The truth of the matter was in her hands from the beginning. She just wanted to find a chance to vindicate her husband, but... maybe our power is not enough. To this day, the world still has
I don’t know who the top pick should be.”
Song Qi couldn't help feeling sad, but she quickly adjusted her mood. She placed the food box on the table and said: "She made this for you last night, and she commissioned it to be delivered to my house early this morning.
Already."
Jiang Wu didn't think much about it, and opened the food box with her. There were four good-looking pastries inside, and there was also a refreshing fragrance of flowers.
"Is this rose cake?" Jiang Wu picked it up and smelled it.
Song Qi frowned and murmured: "She knew I was allergic to pollen, how could she make rose cake for me?"
Jiang Wu said casually: "Are you allergic to pollen?"
Song Qi thought for a while and said: "That's right. When I was a child, I would have red rashes all over my face every spring. People who are familiar with me basically know this, not to mention... In fact, Liu Liu is not a right person.
For someone who is very familiar with cooking, she just knows how to make hair oil and the like."
Jiang Wu intuitively felt that something was wrong with this matter, "If she really wanted to thank me, why didn't she give it to you in person? After so many years of friendship with her, she wouldn't even want to meet her? Besides, she wanted to thank me, why not
Send it directly to Beizhen Fusi?"
Song Qi was also frightened by her and turned pale: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Wu felt a little uneasy, but her reason told her to keep silent for now. She said, "Let's not talk so much. Since you can't eat this, let's see if there is any letter left by her in the box."
The two quickly opened the food box, but there was nothing at the bottom of the box. Song Qi hesitated: "Could we have made a mistake?"
As a result, at this moment, Jiang Wu broke open a piece of the pastry - there was a note inside.
The content on the note was actually very simple, with only a few words, and it wasn't even written very well.
"sorry."
Song Qi picked up the note in a panic. She had a bad feeling in her heart, but she didn't dare to think about that terrible guess. Without saying a word, she grabbed Jiang Wu's hand: "Follow me."
Jiang Wu was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Song Qi looked back with red eyes, and she said: "I don't know what's wrong, but the way she looks, maybe..."
…
When people in the world evaluate beauty, they mostly look at three things: skin appearance, bone appearance, and figure.
Strictly speaking, Wan Liuliu does not belong to any category. She does not have stunning facial features or fair and delicate skin, but whenever she smiles, she looks like the bright moon and stars in the sky. Most young men love her
I love the appearance of beauties, their soft white and delicate skin and their eyes that are still talking.
But when Yang Zhong stood on the second floor of Yihong Courtyard and looked down from above, facing the room full of warblers and swallows, what came to his mind was Wan Liuliu calling his husband with a smile.
My dear Liuliu, why have I failed you all my life? It would be better to marry that butcher and have enough food and clothing for the rest of my life.
Luo Shilang said to him: "You are still young. If you insist on your opinion, I am afraid you will suffer a big loss. Who is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry? You can get his corrupt accounts. Do you think this is a simple matter? You
Give me the account book, and this matter will be written off in one stroke. You can still take part in the imperial examination next year, and I can ensure that you are safe throughout your life."
He heard himself say: "No."
When Jiang Wu and Song Qi rushed to Yang's house, Yang's father and mother Yang had already hung a white cloth at the door. Song Qi walked into the back room trembling all over, only to see Wan Liuliu wearing the wedding dress she had on her wedding day with her eyes closed.
, lying quietly on the bed.
It's like falling asleep.
The sound of suonas coming from far and near outside the small courtyard couldn't make her open her eyes.
