At night, Mu Siyu came behind Lu Yi and pressed his shoulder.

Lu Yi was still reading official documents, so he relaxed and enjoyed the benefits with his eyes closed.

"Shuyu came back and said that he has a big deal. If he does well, he can make a lot of money. But I don't feel at ease. I always feel that I am seeking skin from a tiger, so I want to ask you."

"It can be done." Lu Yi said.

"I haven't said what list it is."

"Is it related to King Zhong?"

"how do you know?"

"With your temperament, if you say something like 'seeking skin with a tiger', it will definitely make you very worried and frightened. So far, only King Zhong has made you so nervous. Furthermore, it is not a secret that King Zhong wants to build another courtyard , the gentry from all over the world are vying to please him, as the county magistrate of Hubei City, how could I not know?"

"I don't have a good impression of Suzhou City, especially King Zhong. King Zhong wants to build another courtyard. It must be a huge project. If it can be taken down, it must be a considerable income. But compared to money, I I hope everyone is safe and sound, and I really don’t want to take any risks.”

"I have a connection with King Zhong." Lu Yi said, "He can use me now, so he won't embarrass you."

"You're working for him? People like him..."

Lu Yi took her hand and pulled her into his arms.

She sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck, her palm-sized face was full of displeasure.

"You know that I'm afraid of him, but you still want to get involved with him so deeply, is that the prince, or the prince who was expelled from Beijing, are you not afraid of getting involved?"

"Loyal King has no capital to compete with, and no one takes him seriously, including Mr. Jiang here." Lu Yi said, "Do you know who Mr. Jiang belongs to?"

Mu Siyu shook her head.

"The sage is old now, and the crown prince is in his prime. But the crown prince is indecisive, not an ideal heir. Jiang Lao's second daughter is married to King Yong, so he belongs to King Yong."

"Why did you tell me this? I don't know anything about the court."

"It's okay if you don't understand, I just want to talk to you." Lu Yi pecked her lips. "If it was an ordinary woman, I would naturally not say these boring things, but you are not an ordinary woman."

"Then if you become the county magistrate, will King Zhong help you, or Elder Jiang help you?"

"Mr. Jiang." Lu Yi said, "He needs me to do something for him. If I become the county magistrate, I can do more for him."

"His granddaughter treats you unusually. If he wants to use you, he should let his granddaughter marry you, so as to win people's hearts."

Lu Yi smiled lightly: "No. If I can't stand the temptation and even abandon Lianfa's wife, with his suspicious character, I'm afraid I can't use it. So, as long as I don't want to marry, he won't force me .".seven

After getting the letter from Lu Yi, when Zheng Shuyu came to ask her about this matter again, she directly agreed.

"Great." Zheng Shuyu was obviously very happy with this result. "Although I thought that if you didn't agree, it would be a big deal not to accept this order, but I'm still very happy if you really agreed. That's money! If you make money, not only you and me, but even the guys we hired will be able to Have a good time."

"Such a big list, do you think Jiang Zhong and the others can complete it?"

"Certainly not. If this order is accepted, you have to take responsibility yourself."

"ok, I get it."

"What's the matter? Are you reluctant to part with Mr. Lu?"

"I'm reluctant to give up, but Suzhou City is not far from here, so I can still come back if I want to come back!"

Zheng Shuyu wanted to go back to visit his own mother's grave.

Mu Siyu accompanied her to buy things for the grave, and followed her to the Zheng family's ancestral graveyard.

"How could this be?" Zheng Shuyu saw the original tomb disappear, and his expression changed drastically.

"Then you'll have to ask your father."

Zheng Shuyu turned around and strode away.

When they arrived at Zheng's house, Zheng's servants did not allow Zheng Shuyu to enter.

"I want to see my father." Zheng Shuyu said, "It's fine if you don't let me in. Call Zheng Erye out. I need to find him."

"The second master is not here."

"Where is he then?"

"Sister..." A soft voice sounded.

Then Zheng Xinyue walked in from the outside.

"I thought I was wrong. It turned out to be my younger sister. What's wrong with my younger sister? Although she has broken away from the Zheng family, she ran to the Zheng family's door and made a lot of noise. It really chills the hearts of us old relatives."

"Since you are here, I can ask you." Zheng Shuyu looked at Zheng Xinyue: "Where is my mother's grave?"

"So it's because of this." Zheng Xinyue smiled lightly: "Grandmother said you were unfilial, and your mother gave birth to an unfilial thing, so she is not qualified to stay in the Zheng family's ancestral grave, so she was thrown into a mass grave."

"What?" Zheng Shuyu almost didn't come up in one breath, shaking his body.

"Miss." Qiushuang supported her.

Mu Siyu said lightly: "Master Zheng Er agrees?"

"Why doesn't Second Uncle agree? His concubine conceived a child for him, and it looks like a boy!" Zheng Xinyue's eyes flashed malice.

"Zheng Xinyue, I will find out, if you dare to lie to me, I will not let you go." Zheng Shuyu grabbed Qiushuang's arm: "Let's go."

Mu Siyu turned her head and glanced at Zheng Xinyue: "Miss Zheng, the Zheng family is so heartless and ungrateful, there will always be retribution, let's wait and see!"

"Mrs. Lu, I know your husband is the county magistrate, but offending our Zheng family won't do your husband any good. You'd better be smart!" Zheng Xinyue walked into the door.

Zheng Shuyu was stimulated, so he went back to Lu Yuan to calm down.

Mu Siyu sent a few servants out to inquire about the news.

The Zheng family dug the grave, so it was easy to inquire about it.Sure enough, it didn't take long for the servants to bring back the news.

"So, he really threw my mother's body into the mass grave?" Zheng Shuyu asked, grabbing the stake next to him.

"The mass graves were not guarded before, but after the master took office, he made some adjustments to the mass graves. Now there are guards there. Perhaps the guards have seen Mrs. Zheng's body." The servant said.

"Really?" Zheng Shuyu asked anxiously.

"Yes."

Mu Siyu was worried, and continued to accompany Zheng Shuyu to the mass grave.

When looking at the neatly arranged tombs, the people who followed all let out a sigh of relief.

The person in charge of the mass grave saw so many people coming and asked what was the matter.Zheng Shuyu explained the reason, and the man took her to find Mrs. Zheng Er's tomb, and Mrs. Zheng Er was also written on the tombstone.

"At first I didn't know whose corpse it was. It was an old servant of the Zheng family who said it belonged to the second wife of their mansion, and specially spent money to carve the tombstone."

"It seems that the Zheng family is not all ruthless people. Loyal servants are more reliable than those so-called family members." Mu Siyu said, "Your mother is not alone here. Isn't this better than the cold ancient tomb of the Zheng family?"

Zheng Shuyu looked at his mother's tombstone and said, "Siyu, I must climb up to make the Zheng family regret what they did to me today."
