   "Lord Yan, how is Master Ling?" Seeing An Guogong coming out of the room, Kou Shijun asked before An Guogong could speak.

"General Xie Kou is concerned, the dog is fine." An Guogong now had a very friendly smile on his face, and there was no trace of anger and hostility on his face.

Jiang Chenghan and his general looked at each other, guessing somewhat in their hearts, and sure enough, the next second, he listened to An Guo's justice: "I have asked the dog just now, today's matter really has nothing to do with little brother Jiang, little brother Jiang is really innocent, I also ask little brother Jiang not to mind my sudden gaffe before, and I also want to thank little brother Jiang for taking care of the dog. After today's matter is clarified, I will come to the door in person and report to General Kou and little brother Jiang. An explanation."

An Guogong has already said that, his tone is very sincere, and his posture is low enough, Jiang Chenghan and Kou Shijun can't say anything more. After all, Yan Jingshu was the one who suffered the most in this matter, and An Guogong was worried about his son, and his previous gaffe was understandable. After all, Jiang Chenghan didn't suffer any big losses.

"Master Yan, please be polite, as long as the young master is safe." Jiang Chenghan said with a smile.

Kou Shijun nodded, and said: "Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, Cheng Han and I are inconvenient here, so we won't stay any longer. I think Mr. Yan still has something to do, so I'll take my leave first.

" Although there was no major disturbance in the end, Kou Shijun and Jiang Chenghan were no longer in the mood to eat. An Guogong could understand, so after politely holding back a few sentences, seeing that the two insisted, he didn't say anything more, and then he gave Yan Zhong some instructions, and asked him to go to Yan Jingshu's place to listen to him, and he personally delivered the Kou Shijun and Jiang Chenghan sent to the gate.

Both Kou Shijun and Jiang Chenghan were generals in the army, so naturally they would not go out in a sedan chair. They both came on horseback, so naturally they had to leave on horseback. When they arrived at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, a servant had already brought their horses. After the two took the reins, they got on their horses, and after bidding farewell to Ann Guo, they rode their horses towards the General's Mansion.

Jiang Chenghan is not from the capital city, and he is a newcomer. He will not stay for too long, so he did not buy a mansion in Beijing. He was only arranged by Kou Shijun to live temporarily in a guest courtyard of the General's Mansion, and Kou Shijun lived with him. The generals of the family accompanied him, and Jiang Chenghan was also a friend of the same robe, very close.

"You've worked hard today, go back and have a good rest. Don't go out for the next two days, and wait for your health to recover." When he arrived at the General's Mansion, Kou Shijun still remembered what the old doctor said, and he did not forget to tell Jiang Chenghan.

"I see, General." Jiang Chenghan naturally agreed, and then he separated from Kou Shijun, turned into Yonglu, and headed for the guest courtyard where he lived.

"Brother Jiang, why did you come back so early?" As soon as he entered the courtyard, a cheeky man who was lifting a stone lock saw him, and was a little surprised.

"It's nothing, I'm a little too drunk, I'll go to bed first, and then I'll talk later." Jiang Chenghan also knew that today's events should not be known to outsiders, so he just put it off.

Although it was still early, Jiang Chenghan was already very tired and had no intention of doing anything else. After returning to his room and washing up briefly, he fell asleep quickly. Before going to sleep, he couldn't help but think of Yan Jingshu from the Duke's Mansion, and he didn't know what he was doing now. It must be hard to accept that something like this happened...

Jiang Chenghan, who was already asleep, didn't know that Yan Jingshu was also thinking about it. with him.

"Second young master?" Yan Zhong, the housekeeper, was ordered by An Guogong to listen to Yan Jingshu's errands, but he saw Yan Jingshu's eyes staring at the ivory-colored curtain absently, and did not respond for a long time.

Thinking that his young master had experienced such a big twists and turns today, he must be very sad, so Yan Zhong didn't say anything more, but just waited quietly to give Yan Jingshu time to calm down.

"...Uncle Zhong, there are two people asking you to check for me." After a while, Yan Jingshu finally spoke. He leaned against the head of the bed with his eyes closed, and slowly said two names.

"Yes." Yan Zhong hurriedly wrote it down, and at the same time recalled everything related to these two people in his heart.

Because there are not many serious masters in the Duke's mansion, there are not many servants serving inside and outside, but only a hundred or so. Yan Zhong has been a housekeeper for many years, not to mention that he knows everything about everyone by heart, but he also knows each other, especially the two people Yan Jingshu mentioned are not ordinary servants in the mansion.

The woman among them is Qiulan, the eldest maid beside Yan Jingshu. She was originally bought into the mansion since she was a child, and has been serving in Yan Jingshu's yard. After a few years, she gradually became the eldest maid.

The other man was named Li Wang. Although he was not from Yan Jingshu's yard, he was the nephew of the Third Miss Yan Jingyu's nanny Li. Because of Li's relationship, he took an errand in the outer courtyard responsible for purchasing flowers, plants, fruits and trees in the mansion, and he was quite capable.

After thinking about the origins of these two people, Yan Zhong couldn't help raising his head slightly, and glanced at Yan Jingshu, but saw that Yan Jing's writing was expressionless, showing no emotion at all, so he withdrew his gaze, and said: "Old slave, take note, old man I will investigate these two people as soon as possible."

Yan Jingshu shook her head and said: "Of course there is an investigation, but not now. You just find someone to monitor them first, but you don't do anything, and you don't want to Let them and other people be aware of it. In addition, find two more reliable people to avoid people and hide in the abandoned well behind the rockery in the garden. If there is no accident, at midnight, the person who instructed Qiulan and Li Wang behind will come There will be some action."

Yan Zhong immediately understood the meaning of Yan Jingshu's words, it meant that the real culprit behind the scenes was planning to kill those two people to silence them, but how could Yan Jingshu know that that person would do it at midnight, or was he abolishing? In the well?

Yan Zhong was puzzled, but he also knew that Yan Jingshu would obviously not explain to him at this moment, so he said: "This old servant has memorized it."

Yan Jingshu nodded, and continued: "If you find something, don't do it for now, just let the back You think everything is going well, as for Qiu Lan and Li Wang, they can interrogate them later."

Speaking of this, Yan Jingshu paused, and then said: "I know that Uncle Zhong was originally a person close to my grandfather, with extraordinary abilities, so no matter what method is used, Uncle Zhong must ask the truth from those two people."

Yan Jingshu's tone It was plain, but Yan Zhong inexplicably heard some fierce and bloody meaning, he raised his head subconsciously, just in time to meet the cold and gloomy light from under Yan Jingshu's half-closed eyelids, and couldn't help but shiver.

"Second Young Master, don't worry, this old slave will not disappoint Second Young Master." Yan Zhong said respectfully.

He once followed the old An Guogong, and after he was unable to go to the battlefield due to his physical illness, he began to interrogate and torture the strange people around him for the old An Guogong, and he was naturally stained with blood. Although the old Duke passed away, the imperial court took back the military power, and the Duke's mansion fell silent because of this, he seldom did such bloody things again, but he never forgot those methods, and he was only two yellow-haired children. It's also a no-brainer for him.

Yan Jingshu naturally believed in Yan Zhong, otherwise she would not have entrusted this matter to him, so she said, "I believe in Uncle Zhong, but there is one more thing, my mother has worked so hard for many days to celebrate my grandmother's birthday, and it still needs to be done." Rest well, don't let mother know about this for now, so as not to bother her. I have already talked to my father, and my father agrees."

Although what Yan Jingshu said was very reasonable, Yan Zhong still felt that something was wrong. Suddenly he thought of the Li Wang whom Yan Jingshu had asked him to investigate, who was also involved with the third lady Yan Jingyu, and an unbelievable guess appeared in his heart.

Could it be, could it be that what happened to Yan Jingshu today has something to do with Madam and Third Miss? !

Yan Zhong didn't dare to think any more, but he felt faintly in his heart that there might be a big change in the Duke's Mansion. Seeing that Yan Jingshu had no other orders, Yan Zhong bowed and retreated.

After Yan Zhong left, the room fell silent, and Yan Jingshu closed her eyes again. He could guess what Yan Zhong was thinking, but he didn't care, because that was the truth, and it was something he would let everyone who should know know after that.

Everything he suffered today was due to his third sister Yan Jingyu, and although his mother was not the mastermind, after learning that Yan Jingyu had harmed him in this way in the previous life, not only did she not punish Yan Jingyu to seek justice for herself, but instead helped Yan Jingyu Erasing all traces, and even using this to force herself to marry.

In the previous life, I only learned about all this from Yan Jingyu when I was about to marry far away from Beijing, but Yan Jingyu harmed her only because of a man, a man who made Yan Jingyu yearn for a long time, but was interested in her.

Yan Jingshu knew who that man was, and also knew what that man wanted, but he had no intention of marrying him, so after realizing that man's feelings for him, he refused to alienate him, and was pestered again and again. immediately break off with him. But he didn't expect that his younger sister Yan Jingyu became jealous of him because of this, and in the end, on the day of her grandmother's 60th birthday, she drugged herself and wanted to destroy herself.

When he left Beijing in his previous life, he was already in pain and depression because of being forced to marry, and he was even more shocked when he suddenly learned about it. He knew that his mother didn't like him since he was a child, and his sister was not close to him because of this, but he still couldn't believe that his mother and sister would treat him like this.

But at that time, he was surrounded by people who were arranged by his mother to send him off, and they guarded him tightly. He would never see his grandmother and father again, let alone seek justice for himself. In the end, he was completely ashamed and sent to the Married carriage.

Thinking of the helplessness and despair at that time, Yan Jingshu still has lingering fears. He closed his eyes, and it took him a while to calm himself down. When he opened them again, there was nothing but coldness in his eyes.

His good sister and good mother, after a good plan, included the rest of his life, but this time, even to make up for the regrets of his previous life and to save Jiang Chenghan's life, he will still marry Jiang Chenghan, but it will not be so easy Just let them get their wish.
