Although Jiang Huan doesn't know what kind of relationship between Ji Yu and Concubine Ru is, through the short narration just now, Jiang Huan can easily feel that Ji Yu's feelings for Concubine Ru are not just the so-called "
"Love" is so simple.
I'm afraid there are more emotions that shouldn't appear between these two people.
How could such strong feelings be so easily dissipated? How could Ji Yu's hatred for him be so easily dissipated?
Facing Ji Yu, who seemed relieved to be friends with him, Jiang Huan became more wary.
Ji Yu looked at Jiang Huan's appearance, but he was not angry, nor did he try to explain. He just smiled and said, "Ji came here today not to waste words with the fifth princess about Concubine Ru's death, but because of
another thing."
I saw Ji Yu pull out a roll of documents from his sleeve, tied neatly with a red tie. It is not difficult to see how carefully the owner of this document works.
"This is the land deed of Zuihong Mansion. With this document, you can operate Zuihong Mansion." Ji Yu handed the document to Jiang Huan.
But Jiang Huan looked at Ji Yu's hanging arm, but didn't have the courage to take it immediately.
He could actually give the land deed to Zuihong Mansion to him at his own request? If he got the Zuihong Mansion, everything he had worked so hard for so many years would be in vain.
What's more, it was given to me who sent Concubine Ru to the guillotine.
Jiang Huan looked at the document in Ji Yu's hand carefully, took out a bottle of powder from his waist, and lightly sprinkled some on the document.
The document remained unchanged, and the powder did not change color, which proved that there was no toxin on the document.
Jiang Huan took the document hesitantly and wiped it carefully. After opening it, he confirmed that it was indeed the title deed of Zuihong Mansion.
Ji Yu actually gave the land deed to himself?
Jiang Huan then thought of the two tokens that Ji Yu had given to him just now. Together with the title deed of Zuihong Mansion, wouldn't it mean that Ji Yu was going to give Zuihong Mansion to him?
Ji Yu looked at Jiang Huan and understood what he meant, then smiled with understanding, nodded and said, "Ji came here today to hand over the Zuihong Mansion to the fifth princess. Now that Concubine Ru has passed away,
Mr. Ji has no memories of his stay in Kyoto, but the Zuihong Mansion was built by Mr. Ji from scratch, and embodies the hard work of Mr. Ji and Concubine Ru over the years. I really can’t bear to burn it down."
After that, Ji Yu bowed deeply and prepared to turn around and leave.
He came in a hurry and left without saying a word, as if he came here just to leave arrangements for his funeral.
Funeral arrangements?
When this idea came up, Jiang Huan became afraid without realizing it.
Could it be that Ji Yu wanted to seek death, so he came today to find the one he transferred to Zuihong Mansion?
Jiang Huan couldn't waste any time and quickly called Mengyu to follow Ji Yu.
But even though Ji Yu said that the person had gone far away, the voice actually used his inner power to reach Jiang Huan, "Don't come looking for the fifth princess. Mr. Ji came today not to seek revenge, nor to fight against the five princesses."
The princesses join forces. Mr. Ji is worried about something, and he also asks the fifth princess not to look for her again in the future."
The sound gradually dissipated and was blown away by the wind, never to be heard again.
Jiang Huan went to look for it again, but no one could be seen anymore.
The documents in his hand became so heavy that Jiang Huan almost couldn't breathe under the pressure.
Jiang Huan stroked his heart, unfolded the document again, and held the two tokens, but he felt particularly unhappy.
Previously, he was always waiting for the people who were originally under Concubine Ru to come and look for him, but now that Ji Yu has come and handed over industries such as Zuihong Mansion to him, Jiang Huan always feels particularly uneasy.
"Princess?" Mengyu saw that the person had gone away, and quickly returned to the house, carefully looking at Jiang Huan up and down. Seeing that Jiang Huan didn't have any flesh and blood wounds, she breathed a sigh of relief.
, asked slightly reproachfully, "Did that person hurt the princess? The princess will never have to face such people alone in the future. I don't know who these people are, so you should proceed with caution."
Jiang Huan knew that Mengyu was worried about him, so he hurriedly patted the back of her hand and rubbed her head consolingly, "What's the matter with me? You're outside, and I'll call you. It's strange to say
, that Ji Yu came today, gave me Zuihonglou and then left."
"Drunken Red Mansion? Could it be the largest brothel in Kyoto?" Mengyu asked in surprise.
The Zuihong Mansion is the largest hidden property in Kyoto. On the surface, it is a brothel. In fact, it secretly runs a chain of power connected through personal connections.
Most of the people standing on this chain are wealthy and powerful people in the capital, and their every move is watched by Zuihonglou's eyeliners. All it takes is Ji Yu coughing to kill anyone on this chain.
You can make him die without any body parts.
These were all things Jiang Huan later learned about.
At that time, when she first got the paperwork, she was only troubled by the fact that such a big brothel was just for her, but she was totally unprepared and didn't even know how to run it properly.
In desperation, she had no choice but to rush to Zuihong Mansion with Mengyu and show the documents. The old madam and matchmaker was shocked when she saw it, so she ordered someone to open Room No. 1 of Tianzi and invited Jiang Huan to speak in the room.
The matchmaker personally confirmed that there was no one outside the house, then slowly walked to Jiang Huan and asked quietly, "Did Mr. Ji give this document to the princess? What else did Mr. Ji say?"
The matchmaker's voice was a little urgent. She seemed to be particularly eager to ask Jiang Huan something about Ji Yu.
Her eyes were red, as if she had cried a lot, and she looked at me with pity and tenderness.
"Ji Yu handed this thing to me. Apart from that, he didn't say much else. He only said that he would leave here." Jiang Huan said in a low voice.
After hearing this, the matchmaker felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Her body stiffened, she fell tremblingly on the table, and finally cried out.
The matchmaker cried so hard that her heart broke, as if she wanted to shed all her endless sorrows through tears.
She lowered her head and stamped her feet, wishing she could spend her whole life crying and following Ji Yu.
Jiang Huan saw this in his eyes and had no choice but to raise the cup and slowly take a sip.
The emotions of people in this world are all so tortuous and bizarre. They all yearn for the white moonlight that they can never get, leaving the person in front of them unable to hold onto it, and ultimately regretting it for the rest of their lives.
Jiang Huan's cup of tea reached the bottom, all the heat had dissipated, and the matchmaker finally stopped crying.
She rubbed her red and swollen eyes, lowered her eyes and glanced at the white jade bracelet on her wrist, and sighed, "In the end, it is fate."
