Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

It was already dark, and a cool breeze was flowing in the mountains.

Seeing Jiang Yuzhu's face looking tired, Shen Zhilan got out of the carriage.

Outside the carriage, Yan Lin and his servant Xiao Wu were wandering around, hesitant about whether to disturb Jiang Yuzhu.

Shen Zhilan took the initiative to say hello: "Mr. Yan, it's so late, are you in a hurry?"

The implication is that if there is nothing urgent, it is best to discuss it tomorrow.

Her meaning was obvious, but it was a pity that Yan Lin didn't know much about the world, so he nodded heavily, but he didn't want to reveal any information about something important.

Seeing the defensive look on Yan Lin's face, Shen Zhilan twitched the corner of her mouth, waved the handkerchief and strode away.

As soon as the person left, Yan Lin looked around with a stern look, and when there was no movement, he said: "Mrs. Xie, have you rested?"

It's not good for Yan Lin to show up late at night. He is alone and alone, so he takes advantage of Yan Lin's identity as a doctor.

"Yan is going to take Ping'an's pulse for you."

Yan Lin found an excuse and was invited to the carriage.

Seeing the stern expressions on guard against thieves, the maids all withdrew except Hong Jin.

Yan Lin looked around and said hesitantly: "Mrs. Xie, the medicinal powder used by Boss Ma and Cuilan is a banned drug in Daqi. We must trace it."

He recalled carefully that the Yan family had a book placed in a secret room, which was better kept than gold and silver.

"I have a problem with dizziness, so I often hide away and like to read some miscellaneous books."

Yan Lin once entered the secret room and read the classic book of the Yan family. He rubbed his face vigorously, his face turned green and white, and said with difficulty: "Mrs. Xie, you and I have some friendship..."

To say or not to say?

Yan Lin was very confused. He thought about it repeatedly and decided to confess because he knew the seriousness of the matter.

"In the Yan family's classics, there is a method for purifying rice shell flowers!"

Only the clan leader could enter the secret room. Yan Lin was interested in the medicinal materials and looked through them secretly. He then left quietly without his father knowing.

Jiang Yuzhu stood up, her pupils shrank slightly, and asked: "Mr. Yan, what do you mean..."

"Do you want to make it more clear? Yan suspects that the medicinal powder sold was prepared by his father!"

Yan Lin let out a breath and showed a heartbroken expression.

He just suspected it, not sure yet.

So after returning to Jiangnan, Yan Lin originally wanted to stay in Zhuangzi, but he changed his plan and decided to return to his clan first.

"If dad did it, it's impossible for the Yan Mansion to have no clues."

Yan Lin clutched his heart and almost couldn't breathe.

After all, he is his biological father, so of course he wants to hide it, but people have already lost their families because of this, and this powder is harmful to people's lives.

Even if it brings huge benefits and huge wealth, will the Yan family still prosper if it is based on bad ethics?

Purifying forbidden medicinal materials is a serious crime that requires everyone to be executed!

"Mrs. Xie, even if I want to protect you, I can't plug such a big hole with my own strength."

Yan Lin understood Jiang Yuzhu's character and was loyal to his friends. He would never be blinded by interests, so he was willing to speak out.

In the carriage, under the light of the candle, Jiang Yuzhu's eyes were a little indifferent. She played with the teapot in her hand and waited for a long time before saying: "So, you are asking for the safety of the entire Yan family?"

Daqi has Daqi's laws, and Jiang Yuzhu's words don't count.

What's more, we can't just predict that the medicinal powder will flow out of the Yan family now.

However, the clues provided by Yan Lin pointed directly to Jiangnan, which was very helpful for Jiang Yuzhu's investigation.

Yan Lin lowered his head in pain, and said in a harsh voice: "Since you make mistakes, you will be punished. So many families with ancestral property are separated from their wives and have fallen into disgrace. If it was Dad who did it, how can he not take responsibility?"

"Dad is ambitious and may go astray for the prosperity of the clan. It would be better if he only has one life left."

The rest of the consequences will be borne by him, and he is willing to make meritorious deeds.

Jiang Yuzhu did not say anything, but said: "Let me think about it first, but the matter of the medicinal powder is a secret."

"Yan knows this."

If discovered by the clansmen, Yan Lin would be the first to be silenced. If he talks about family affection to the clansmen, the clansmen may regard him as a stumbling block.

After Yan Lin left, Jiang Yuzhu put down the teapot and asked Hong Jin, "Are you all ready?"

"Ready."

Hong Jin said, taking out a small wrapped cage from the car bench, opening the cloth cover on one side, revealing two lively white mice.

"My slave bought the most energetic looking mouse."

Hong Jin entered the bathroom of the carriage and packed up the cage, and then asked, "Madam, when should we start?"

"Now."

During the day, there are many people with mixed eyes, especially the red carp. Although he is strict about his own affairs, he has a flamboyant temperament.

The stakes are high and the fewer people who know about it, the better.

"Feed three times a day, and feed regularly for the first three days."

Shenxian powder is expensive, and a small pack can be sold at a sky-high price, so you have to use it sparingly.

After feeding the mouse food mixed with fairy powder, the two little mice ate and drank enough, each occupied a position and lay down honestly.

After three days of this, the two little mice became significantly more active.

During the day, Jiang Yuzhu went to Shen Zhilan's carriage to talk because she was worried that her secret would be exposed.

On the fourth day, the feeding time changed.

After feeding the first meal, there is a long gap between the second meal.

In the evening, Jiang Yuzhu returned to the carriage to observe. The two white mice screamed loudly and kept circling in the cage, obviously showing signs of anxiety.

"Hello, ma'am?"

If the mouse is allowed to bark again, there is no guarantee that the sound will spread.

But the advantage is that when sleeping outdoors, the noise of mice will not arouse suspicion.

"Hey!"

Jiang Yuzhu watched helplessly as the rat ate the added rat food and became satisfied again.

After only three days, the mice were already showing symptoms of addiction.

It is indeed purified and has great staying power when used on people.

Jiang Yuzhu began to think about Yan Lin's proposal again, and said without hiding it from Hong Xiu and Hong Jin: "Yan Lin is an upright man, but he is not smart enough. If the Yan family really notices it, he will definitely tell the truth."

Jiang Yuzhu didn't care in the past, but now the two are partners and can be considered friends, so they have to consider it a little bit.

Hongxiu nodded, thinking that Madam was right, and asked Duoguo: "Then will you send Yan Lin to go?"

If you can really steal the classics and find evidence, you can use clues to find the person behind it. It will be a great achievement!

Even if the Yan family makes a big mistake, Yan Lin may be able to avoid the death penalty because of his merits.

"Go, but not Yan Lin alone."

Jiang Yuzhu's eyes glanced at the two maids, and finally fell on Hongxiu. She clapped her hands and said, "I have an idea, but Hongxiu needs to be aggrieved."

Yan Lin can't do it alone. If there are more than one person, the success rate will be even higher.

"Hongxiu and Yan Lin are quite familiar with each other. By pretending to be Yan Lin's daughter-in-law, you can also get a red seal from Yan's elders. Not bad!"

Jiang Yuzhu came up with a bad idea, and Hong Xiu, who was named, was instantly petrified. She pointed at the tip of her nose and said, "Madam, do you mean to ask this slave to follow Yan Lin back to the house?"
