The Male Wife

Chapter 235 Do You Think It's Worth It?

Zhu Wan stood in the backyard, and Jiang Sanye stood behind him, "Jiang Wenyun, are you sure you really want to attack Jiang Lin? Don't you know the influence of Wuwu Pavilion in the entire imperial capital? Are you crazy? Pei Cheng, do you think it's worth it?" Jiang Sanye didn't come here to listen to what Zhu Wan preached to him, "Since I've asked you to cooperate, then you should know my decision and determination It is absolutely impossible to change easily.”

"That's because you haven't fully experienced the power of Wuwu Pavilion. Jiang Wenyun, I know that you have always felt that you owe Pei Cheng all these years, but now that Pei Cheng is living a good life, I think you should let go of your selfishness. Don't worry about other things." Zhu Wan and Jiang Wenyun used to be students under a mentor, and their family was engaged in business, but they wanted to pursue an official career, so during the time they were students, Jiang Wenyun still played along with them. good.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Zhu Wan deliberately invited Jiang Wenyun over on his father's [-]th birthday, and Jiang Wenyun usually would not like to attend such a banquet, but tonight, by mistake, he gave Zhu Wan This face.

However, it is precisely because Jiang Sanye gave Zhu Wan this so-called face, otherwise Jiang Sanye would not have known until now that Pei Cheng had followed one of Jiang Lin to the imperial capital, not to mention Jiang Linzhi was still in the legend The well-known owner of the Inorganic Pavilion.

Zhu Wan is willing to admire the persistence of the third master, "Didn't you ever think that if today's incident hadn't happened, you and Pei Cheng might have stayed in the imperial capital for the rest of your life, but you didn't know that the other party was there?" Imperial City. According to me, since the past is over, you don’t have to use the past to pester yourself for the rest of your life. What’s more, now Pei Cheng has found a husband who is better than you and the Jiang family. Son-in-law, even if you want to abandon your siblings and stay with Pei Cheng, Pei Cheng may not be willing to be with you."

Jiang Sanye pursed his lips and did not speak. After a while, he said: "I didn't intend to go to the imperial capital this time, but I was told by the Mo family that there was nothing I could do. Besides, so many things happened at home, I wanted to come out and hide quietly. But now, my life in the Imperial City is not as good as in Huacheng, I have been thinking these days, did I really do something wrong?"

Zhu Wan looked at Mr. Jiang, feeling a little bit unbearable to see his friend so devastated, but he didn't know how to comfort Mr. Jiang, "It's not your fault anyway. Back then, the Pei family wanted to send Cheng Pei away. I was betrothed to you, but you didn't realize it at the time, and you have to come to the imperial capital to take the exam, you have no choice but to do this for a while."

Jiang Sanye is always reluctant to recall the events of the past, but now he can't help but think about it, and he still can't see it or figure it out.

Jiang Sanye sighed, "I thought about it before, if he had a bad life with Jiang Linzhi, maybe I could take him away from Jiang Linzhi's side and give him a new life , but he is pregnant with his second child now, and the way Jiang Linzhi looks at him doesn't look like a fake, I think he won't need me anymore."

Zhu Wan patted Jiang Sanye on the shoulder sympathetically, "You're thinking too much. In my opinion, even if Jiang Linzhi doesn't like Pei Cheng anymore, he won't just give him up to you. He belongs to Wuwu Pavilion Pavilion master, a pavilion master, how could he watch his own people run away with others with his own eyes, wouldn't it make people laugh at others when it spread. In my opinion, you should die now."

Jiang Sanye smiled and stopped talking, "I heard that the Zhu family almost got into a fight with the Wuwu Pavilion because of a jade pendant some time ago. What's going on?"

Jiang Sanye has a special status, and he has not yet started to cultivate his own network of contacts in the imperial capital. Moreover, the imperial capital is different from Huacheng. The news I received was basically incomplete, so naturally, Jiang Sanye was in a state of ignorance and ignorance about what happened before.

Zhu Wan was surprised, he wasn't surprised that Mr. Jiang would find out about this matter, but he didn't expect that Mr. Jiang, who only knows how to investigate cases, would have the leisure to investigate what happened between himself and Wuwu Pavilion. Zhu Wan, who has been friends with Mr. Jiang for many years, felt incredible. Zhu Wan sighed, her tone full of helplessness, "I was tricked by someone in this matter. I am really unlucky."

Third Master Jiang frowned, subconsciously aware that something was wrong, what was going on.

Zhu Wan didn't hide it from Mr. Jiang, anyway, this matter is no secret in the imperial capital now, so he simply said: "Last time I wanted to get online with the Wuwu Pavilion because of a small matter, but I didn't expect to be given it by a Taoist priest. I figured it out, my former valet got some kind of messy spell from a Taoist on the way, and when I woke up, I remembered that I gave Pei Cheng a jade pendant, but I didn't expect it to be that jade pendant that made Pei Cheng faint Yes, just for this matter, I was almost strangled to death by the old man."

When it comes to this matter, Zhu Wan's tone is both helpless and angry.

He was helpless as to why he was so unlucky, and he was angry because he, a dignified young master of the Zhu family, would be tricked by a little-known Taoist priest one day.

Although she was not the one who was recruited, once Zhu Wan remembered this incident, Zhu Wan felt her face hurting. people, but I don’t know what the reason is, that a sect that has been reclusive for a long time will use such a despicable method... So I guess there must be an ulterior purpose behind this matter.” Zhu Wan's face was full of anger and helplessness. He was very angry that Daoguang Sect used such a low-level method to frame him, but now he couldn't produce evidence, "I told my father about my opinion, and my father didn't Allow me to continue the investigation. I think my father should know a little about this matter."

Zhu Wan glanced at Jiang Sanye, and said: "I want to trouble brother Wen Yun to help me find out about this matter. My father does not allow me to continue to intervene in these right and wrong, but this is related to the reputation of my Zhu family. I always You can’t really ignore anything.”

Jiang Sanye nodded, "If there is something to do, I will investigate it in the dark to see if it is really Daoguang Sect who deliberately framed the Zhu family. Don't worry, Brother Zhu."

Zhu Wan patted Third Master Jiang on the shoulder and said, "Thank you."

Jiang Sanye didn't take this matter to heart.

"After I find the Taoist priest who intends to frame my Zhu family, see if I don't peel off his skin." Zhu Wan gritted her teeth and said fiercely. It won't be so hard, and I won't be able to sleep well for a while because of worrying about other things.

Jiang Sanye just wanted to say something to comfort Zhu Wan, but when he saw Zhu's housekeeper trotting over, he shut his mouth.

Zhu Wan turned around and saw the housekeeper running to her out of breath, she couldn't help frowning, and said in a very aggressive tone, "What are you doing here?"

The butler knew that he was disturbing the young master's conversation with his friends, but Zhu's father asked him to take Zhu Wan back in the shortest possible time, so the butler could only bite the bullet and said, "Young master, the master wants you to go back quickly. Many guests at the banquet need you to entertain them personally."

Zhu Wan knew the importance of tonight's banquet, so she didn't want to get angry with the housekeeper, so she turned around and said to Jiang Sanye, "We'll talk another day, and I'll find you when I have time. I forgot what I told you just now."

The third master Jiang knew what Zhu Wan was talking about, so he nodded and watched Zhu Wan leave. Before he had time to follow him, he saw the butler of the Zhu family suddenly continue: "Master Jiang, just now the master asked me to tell you, He wants to talk to you and asks you to wait for him in the side hall."

Third Master Jiang frowned. Although he was puzzled, he didn't think too much, and said, "Please trouble the housekeeper to lead the way."

The housekeeper nodded with a smile, and led Third Master Jiang towards the side hall without changing his expression.

Although Jiang Sanye noticed something strange, he didn't think that a butler of the Zhu family would plot to harm him, so he didn't build up too much defense. Hearing the butler's opening, Jiang Sanye followed directly up.

As a result, when he almost reached the side hall, the housekeeper stopped and said, "The old servant still needs to go to other things, Mr. Jiang, you go straight, go to the end, open the door, there is the side hall, you go Well, I have to go ahead and take care of the banquet."

Third Master Jiang subconsciously wanted to stop the housekeeper, "Are you sure Master Zhu called me to the side hall?" He realized something was wrong.The butler said frankly, "It's absolutely true. Young Master Jiang just needs to wait inside for a while, and the master will come over soon."

"Master Zhu, what do you want from me?" Third Master Jiang stared into the butler's eyes, trying to see something from them.

The butler said: "Master Jiang, aren't you insulting this slave by saying this? How can this slave know why the master is looking for you?"

After finishing speaking, the butler saluted Third Master Jiang before leaving without looking back.

Jiang Sanye continued to walk forward full of doubts. He had never had any friendship with Master Zhu, and he didn't know why Master Zhu wanted to find him.

The butler returned to the main hall and whispered something in Father Zhu's ear.

Zhu's father smiled happily, "Well, everything is settled, very good."

He can't understand Third Master Jiang, and always feels that this person is deliberately getting close to his stupid son, and just now, Third Master Jiang deliberately embarrasses himself in front of so many people, which makes Father Zhu treat him even more dislike.

But at this moment, the maid and servant who had been following Chu Baijiao searched the entire backyard of the Zhu Mansion but couldn't find Chu Baijiao, so they became flustered.

"Go and report to Lord Hou." The maid who was always uncertain said suddenly.

The boy ran towards the main hall anxiously without looking back.

The maid's heart was beating very fast, and she always felt that something had happened.
