Yan Ze was shocked and wanted to escape through the door, but the officer guarding the door reached out to stop him.

"Lord Officer, I was wronged," Yan Ze turned around and stared at Yan Cheng fiercely, looking like he was about to cry, "Second brother, are you so intolerant of me?"

As he spoke, he reached out and pulled the officer's sleeve, forcing a tear from the corner of his eye.

"You blame me for everything, now you want your brother to be thrown into a cell. Sir, it's up to you to judge."

The few officials who came looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.

Officials can take care of everything except family affairs. It is not a small quarrel in any family. If there is no definite evidence, even if you give them ten gold coins, they will not dare to put people in jail casually.

They were just about to act as peacemakers and let this matter go when they heard the imperial guard standing in front of Yan Cheng say, "These types of crimes are punishable by beheading. I wonder if this young master has any evidence?"

Yan Cheng calmly pointed to the bowl of medicine on the table that had lost its heat before he drank it. "That bowl of medicine was brought over by the maid. I haven't let my wife drink it yet. If the official wants evidence, you might as well ask the doctor to come and test it. Test this medicine and also search in my good brother's room."

"It was you who planned to kill me!" Yan Ze rushed forward and wanted to knock the medicine over to the ground, but unexpectedly, Yan Cheng had anticipated his move and put his foot on his knee, causing him to roll on the ground in pain.

"Would I allow you to do the same thing a second time?" Yan Cheng looked at Yan Ze condescendingly, "Last time in the temple, you cruelly kicked your unborn child away. The maids who were around you could see it. It was all crystal clear."

Yan Cheng walked around Yan Ze and raised a disdainful curve at the corner of his mouth, "You secretly hid the account books of the clothing store and the cloth store, do you think I don't know about it? The account keeper of the clothing store brings them to me every day. , you are not curious at all, why did no one come to inform me that the account book is missing? "

Yan Ze's heart clicked, and he clenched his hands into fists, digging his nails deeply into his palms, leaving a row of half-moon-shaped marks.

"What you brought back last time was not just some ancient utensils and books, right? The one at the bottom must be the account book that you arranged for the fine work to be handed over to you in the garment shop and clothes shop. Have I guessed right?"

Yan Ze was heartbroken and his eyes were filled with red bloodshot eyes. It was only then that he realized that his brother had known all his plans a long time ago. Even before he took action, he exchanged all the account books in the store, leaving him smugly smiling with the fake account books, thinking that his plan was about to succeed.

"Since you know what I'm going to do, why didn't you expose me early?"

Yan Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at Yan Ze. His parents had a son in their old age. They held all the good things in front of Yan Ze and held their little son in front of him to dote on him. Yan Cheng, on the other hand, has been raised by his elder brother since he was a child. If he makes any mistakes, he will inevitably get a slap in the face.

Yan Ze was taught by his parents to forget about dignity and respect, and he still thought that he was the only precious boy in the family. When he found that the things in Yan Cheng's hands were better than his own, he always wanted to snatch them away. Paranoid and cold-blooded, even Yan Cheng was speechless after he was reborn.

"I didn't want to expose you at this time." Yan Cheng knelt down and looked at Yan Ze, who was sweating from the pain in his temples. His eyes were as cold as substance. "I also wanted to see what other tricks you could pull off. Let's see. How did you want to deal with me? But - you shouldn't have aimed  Jinshu."

Everyone in the house knew that Yan Cheng protected Song Jinshu in his arms, but evil Yan Ze refused to believe it. He thought his brother was deceived by beauty and valued a countryman as a treasure. He had played the same trick before and found it amusing, so he decided to try it on Song Jinshu.

Originally, Yan Cheng was planning to wait until he had a showdown with the ledger before dealing with him, but Yan Ze touched his back without any bias. Yan Cheng had already forgotten all his plans and only wanted to deal with him harshly. Beat him up to relieve his anger.

The doctor and the official who went to search Yan Ze's yard came back at the same time. Yan Ze was tied up with a hemp rope by Yan Cheng and was thrown under a tree. He watched the doctor cautiously use a silver needle to test the medicine. He only tried to coax him before he frightened Jinshu.

In less than half an hour, the official brought Yan Ze back to the government office.

The movement in the second courtyard had already alarmed many people. A group of maids and servants gathered at the entrance of the courtyard. They were all shocked when they saw Yan Ze being taken away.

They only thought that the two masters of the family were at odds with each other, but they never expected that it would bring trouble to the government.

The old housekeeper ran a few steps out anxiously, took the hand of a servant who was working in the kitchen, and gasped, "Hurry...quickly! Go to the back mountain to find the master and his wife, and tell them what happened just now. Tell them to bring the master and his wife back down the mountain."

The man nodded ignorantly and walked out of the house at the urging of the old housekeeper.

"Just do what you have to do, don't crowd around in front of the yard." Yan Cheng put his arm around Song Jinshu's waist and drove away the maids who were still chattering outside the door with a calm expression. Song Jinshu fell asleep not long in the afternoon, and after standing here for half an hour His face turned pale.

"Do you want to sleep for a while?" Yan Cheng asked in a low voice in Song Jinshu's ear. Song Jinshu shook his head. How could he possibly sleep when such a big thing happened? "Is it okay? ... Yan Ze..."

Yan Cheng squeezed Song Jinshu's waist a little hard, as a warning and punishment, "He did it himself. You don't need to plead for him. It's just a matter of time anyway."

Song Jinshu looked at Yan Cheng's gloomy expression with some helplessness, thinking that the second master was getting better and better, and now he even wanted to be jealous of his incompetent brother.

"I won't plead for him." Song Jinshu already knew how to coax his jealous husband. He took Yan Cheng's forearm with one hand, rubbed Yan Cheng's shoulder with his cheek, and said softly, "I am... I'm afraid if my father knows about this, he will blame you. I don't want you to be scolded because of me."

Yan Cheng's face looked better. He reached out and closed the courtyard door, blocking all the probing eyes from outside. After making sure that no one saw it, he lowered his head and kissed Song Jinshu on the face.

"It's natural for a husband to protect his wife. Why would he scold me?" Yan Cheng seemed to have thought of something unpleasant and snorted with a stinky face, "Because of my mother, I was beaten by him a lot when I was a child."

After saying that, Song Jinshu was half pushed and half carried into the room by Yan Cheng. The candlelight was swaying by the incoming wind, and the shadows of the naked bodies were cast on the window shades as if they were entangled with each other.

Song Jinshu had just started to feel sleepy when he heard the footsteps of servants and earth-shattering shouts coming from the yard.

"Second Master and Young Master.... please wait in the front hall."
