When Su Wanruo came to the study, she happened to hear what was said inside.

She was stunned.

My cousin rarely gets so angry.

The veins on Murong Chuan's forehead kept throbbing and his face was extremely ashen.

"Jiang Zhinian!"

Murong Chuan gritted his teeth when he pronounced these three words.

"How dare you trick me like this!"

Murong Chuan stood there, his hands clenched tightly, his eyes fierce, and he wished he could attack Jiang Zhinian right then and there.

Su Wanruo's expression changed slightly and she walked into the study.

"Cousin, I...I was worried about you, so I cooked some snacks myself for you to try."

"I didn't mean to eavesdrop just now."

Seeing Su Wanruo coming, Murong Chuan's expression looked better.

"It's windy outside, you should rest well."

Su Wanruo insisted, "I just feel sorry for you, Lord Marquis, and I want to do something for you."

"I didn't expect that Madam would do such a thing without caring about the Marquis's face."

"My Lord, does the Madam not care about you at all?"

"I am a woman, I understand this best. If a woman cares about her husband, she will never trample on his face openly."

"I just wish I could help the Marquis solve his problems."

"But Madam has been acting strangely since she came back from the Earl's Mansion."

"Is it because of my existence that the Madam hates the Marquis and harbors resentment?..."

When Su Wanruo was angry with Murong Chuan, she started to instigate and exaggerate things.

Said a lot of things.

The thought was so terrifying that Murong Chuan turned pale.

Suddenly Murong Chuan realized that something was wrong.

Murong Chuan had always believed that Jiang Zhinian still loved him and cared about him.

But now that I think carefully about what my cousin said, there is indeed something wrong.

Like my cousin, she loves him wholeheartedly and does everything for him.

In the past, Jiang Zhinian loved him wholeheartedly and was willing to give everything for him. She even confiscated her dowry and bought him whatever he needed without any complaints.

Now, time and again, something is wrong.

"Is she going to deal with the Marquis' Mansion?"

Su Wanruo wiped her tears and said, "My Lord, what should I do?"

"Because of the Madam's return to the Marquis' Mansion, our Marquis' Mansion's reputation has been ruined."

"I heard that many people outside are now saying bad things about our Marquis' Mansion and you, Lord Marquis. Unfortunately, I can't do anything. I can only worry..."

Murong Chuan was stunned. "Are people outside planning this?"

Su Wanruo nodded and said, "Yes, Lord, Madam did that. The nobles all saw it. They all set up porridge stalls to distribute porridge. They saw it clearly..."

She just asked people to pay attention to what was happening outside, and of course it was not as exaggerated as she said.

But being able to deal with the lady through the Marquis's hand will always be beneficial to her.

She knew Murong Chuan, so she knew what to say to make him angry and dissatisfied.

Murong Chuan's expression turned ruthless after hearing this. He said to the chief steward of the Marquis' Mansion, Mu Da, "Since she dares to act like this, let her know how powerful we are!"

"Does she really think she can do anything if she leaves our mansion?"

All the anger and hatred accumulated in Murong Chuan's heart burst out at this moment.

"You should arrange for more people to blend in with the refugees and cause trouble."

The steward was shocked. He didn't expect the marquis to act so paranoid.

Looking at Aunt Su next to him, the butler's eyes flashed and he whispered, "My Lord, there are so many patrol guards at the city gate now, just to maintain law and order and prevent refugees from causing trouble. The refugees who caused trouble before were all beheaded."

Murong Chuan's eyes showed ruthlessness, "Pass the message to our people, please help us. If the refugees cause trouble, the guards will not arrive so quickly."

"As long as Jiang Zhinian is seriously injured at this time, it will be fine!"

The steward's face turned pale, thinking that the marquis had murderous intentions towards the lady.

Let the lady be seriously injured?

But once the refugees start to make trouble, they no longer have the final say on the severity of their injuries.

It is even possible that the lady might be seriously injured.

"My Lord, do you really...really want to do this?"

Murong Chuan said mercilessly: "Since she dares to act like this, we don't have to be merciful."

"As long as he's still alive, the Marquis's Mansion can support him."

As long as Jiang Zhinian is alive, she will be his wife.

If you are seriously ill, just take medicine to keep you alive.

Jiang Zhinian could only listen to him and could not do anything else.

Su Wanruo wanted to say something, but she held it back.

My cousin isn't ruthless enough.

But she will add fuel to the fire.

When Su Wanruo lowered her head, a smug look appeared in her eyes.

If Jiang Zhinian were to become seriously ill and have only one breath left, and his reputation were ruined, she would be the mistress of this mansion.

It was as if she had seen such a scene.

Enjoying all the glory and wealth.

As for the fact that the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion was seriously ill, Su Wanruo looked worried, but in fact she didn't care.

She felt that her aunt was a very controlling person and was really good to her.

But it is better to have the final say than to listen to my aunt.

……

Su Wanruo disguised herself and quietly left the house that day. She came to a jewelry store and was led to the second floor.

A quarter of an hour later, Su Wanruo came out, took the jewelry and quietly returned to the mansion.

Even the secret guards didn't know what Su Wanruo had done.

Jiang Zhinian returned home in the evening, and the house was as peaceful as usual.

The secret guard came quietly to report the matter.

Jiang Zhinian's expression changed, "Has Su Wanruo finally revealed her true colors?"

"Madam, are you saying that Aunt Su went to the jewelry store to contact her people?"

Jiang Zhinian said, "Su Wanruo is a cautious person. If she really wanted to buy jewelry, she wouldn't have to disguise herself. She doesn't want people to follow her and see her."

"There must be something wrong with this jewelry store. Arrange someone to keep an eye on it!"

In the previous life, it was not easy for Su Wanruo to finally control Murong Chuan firmly and do so many things in secret.

At first she thought it was the old lady's people helping Su Wanruo.

But over the past few days she has been constantly analyzing the events of her previous life and discovered that Su Wanruo also has people doing the work herself.

She doesn't just rely on the Marquis's Mansion.

But Su Wanruo is very cautious.

She waited for such a long time before Su Wanruo showed a little bit of her true colors.

"Don't alarm her, and see what she does."

Jiang Zhinian naturally would not take it lightly.

"What's wrong with Murong Chuan?"

"He was talking to the butler in the study. Ever since Mu Tie died, the area around the Marquis' study was full of guards, so I didn't dare get too close."

Mu Tie's death made Murong Chuan more cautious in his actions.

Murong Chuan was worried that his political enemies were keeping an eye on him, so he even arranged for people to watch over him when he was working in the Marquis' Mansion.

"But Aunt Su went in during the trip. When she came out, she was smiling. Then she went to the jewelry store in the evening."

Jiang Zhinian nodded and said, "I understand. Murong Chuan will definitely use his ultimate move. I will follow suit!"

It is easier to turn the tables by taking advantage of the opponent's tactics.

After giving the secret guard some instructions, he asked him to leave.

Jiang Zhinian called Zheng Daniu and told him, "Be careful when distributing porridge tomorrow and don't let irrelevant people get close."
