Fu Junyan caught a glimpse of her expression from the corner of his eye and did not ignore the regretful look on her face.

This woman really doesn't know her place in the world. If she knew who Yu Jibao had provoked, I wonder if she would still approve of his behavior.

Yu Jibao returned to the Fu Mansion safely, and everyone felt relieved.

Yu's father and mother were even more grateful, and when they saw the injuries all over his body, they couldn't help but feel sad again. They hugged Yu Jibao and cried.

After hearing this, He Zhilan rushed over from He Mansion and brought a doctor with him.

"Sister-in-law, let the doctor take a look at Young Master Jibao first."

"Zhilan, thank you."

Lin Zhuwei was grateful from the bottom of her heart for He Zhilan's kindness.

"Don't be polite, sister-in-law."

Seeing that everything was arranged properly, Madam Fu said, "Yan'er, you can take care of them. Arrange servants who are more skillful to take good care of the young master. I am also tired, so I will go back to my room and rest first."

"Thank you, Grandma! I'll see you off."

Lin Zhuwei quickly stood up and went over to hold the old lady's arm. The old lady was slightly surprised, then nodded with satisfaction.

The matter of the doctor treating Yu Jibao was not mentioned here.

"Wu Er, go find out what Jiang Mu of the Jiang Mansion has been up to lately."

"Master, why are you asking about him?" Wu Er asked curiously.

Jiang Mu's grandfather was once the Prince's Tutor. After retiring, he settled in Huixi City with his family.

Jiang Mu is the eldest son and grandson of the Jiang family. Relying on his family's power and influence, he acts tyrannically and arrogantly in Huixi City. Everyone has been angry but not able to speak out for a long time.

"I suspect that this incident with Yu Jibao was his doing."

Based on the portrait described by Yu Jibao before, it is estimated to be the same as what he guessed.

"Then this..."

That’s a difficult problem!

Wu Er was shocked. After all, the Jiang family's status and position were there, and the young lady was an impulsive person. If she knew...

"Go and find out first. Don't let her know."

Wu Er took the order and went out.

About two hours later, Wu Er reported back, "Master, just as you expected, the one who had a conflict with Master Jibao was indeed Jiang Mu."

"What caused the conflict?"

"Jiang Mu captured a girl and tried to commit a crime. Master Jibao saw him and a conflict broke out between them."

Wu Er was shocked. Jiang Mu was really so daring that he dared to kidnap a girl in broad daylight and molested her in the street.

"Do you know whose girl she is?" Fu Junyan frowned.

"It has not been found out yet. It is probably difficult to find out."

Indeed, if a powerless girl from a poor family was bullied, she would have to swallow her anger in the face of the arrogant Jiang family.

If she were the daughter of a wealthy family, being molested would be a disgrace to her reputation, so she would naturally not take the initiative to make it public.

"But Master, when Jiang Mu and Master Jibao had a conflict, someone saw a girl coming out of Tianzi Lane from afar. I heard that the girl was dressed expensively. Could she be from a wealthy family?" Wu Er guessed.

"Yeah. Let's go check it out first."

Tianzi Lane.

"Young Master, what are we looking for?" Wu Er asked when he saw Fu Junyan seemed to be looking for something.

Fu Junyan did not answer, but searched every corner carefully, sometimes even using his hands to push aside the broken clay pots or broken dustpans to check.

Events leave traces. Since this is where the incident happened, if we come back and look for it, we will always find some clues.

"Master! Look what this is?" Wu Er suddenly shouted.

It's a silk handkerchief.

Fu Junyan took it, looked at it carefully, touched it gently, and soon confirmed: this is not an ordinary handkerchief, but a cloud brocade bestowed by the emperor.

Looking again, there is a small word "Luo" embroidered on the lower right corner of the handkerchief.

It seems that Jiang Mu has run into trouble this time.

Fu Junyan curled his lips and sneered: "Wu Er, send someone to find out if Madam Luo of the Xi Mansion has any distant relatives visiting recently."

"Yes, Master."

In the Xi Mansion of Huixi City, the wife of Xi Zixun, the eldest son of the Xi family, Ms. Luo, is the princess personally conferred by the emperor.

Although this princess has no blood relationship with the royal family, her ancestors have accumulated numerous merits by fighting on the battlefield.

Except for the lineage of the princess, most of the young men died on the battlefield. In order to appease the lineage of the Luo family, the late emperor personally granted the title of princess and allowed it to be inherited from generation to generation.

If Jiang Mu really touched the girl from the Luo family this time, he would probably be close to death.

Fu Junyan was sitting in the courtyard, spreading the silk handkerchief on the stone table, thinking about what to do next.

A mocking voice suddenly sounded from behind: "Hey, Master Fu, whose girl's soul have you brought back again?"

His body stiffened. Without looking back, he could imagine Lin Zhuwei's mean face.

Lin Zhuwei leaned over from behind him, unable to see the small words on the handkerchief, and reached out to pick it up.

As a result, Fu Junyan grabbed the handkerchief and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket. The undisguised defensiveness in his action made Lin Zhuwei feel a little sad.

She couldn't help but taunt him, "Don't worry, Master Fu, I will do my best to do my job as the mistress of the house. Do you want me to help you take in a concubine now?"

Fu Junyan sneered: "Didn't you say that I can only marry a successor after you die? Do you want to die now?"

Dead man!

Your mouth is so poisonous, did you eat pesticides?

Lin Zhuwei smiled awkwardly: "Isn't this what you wish for? With such a beautiful girl in my arms, what else are you dissatisfied with?"

"It's really hard for you." Fu Junyan suddenly sighed.

Lin Zhuwei thought he was praising her for her ability, so she waved her hand and said generously: "It's not difficult..."

Before he finished speaking, Fu Junyan suddenly said, "You are all wet above your neck. You hang there and sway all day long. I wonder if you are tired?"

Damn man! He doesn't even repeat the same insults!

His mouth doesn't just look like it drank pesticides, it's like it was hatched in a poison pool.

"Master Fu, I married you despite my stupid brain. I guess it's because my brain has its own ideas. I'm afraid that if I grow any bigger, I won't be worthy of you as my husband."

Humph, her brain is more than enough for him.

Lin Zhuwei also retaliated without hesitation by giving him a heavy blow.

Fu Junyan snorted coldly, gave her an ambiguous look, turned and left, leaving Lin Zhuwei standing there in a daze.

Why did she always feel that there was something meaningful behind his rolling eyes just now?

Wu Er soon found out the news.

"Master, a distant relative has indeed come to the Xi Mansion recently. She is a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. I heard that she is the daughter of Madam Luo's cousin. This time, Madam Luo personally sent an invitation to invite her to the mansion. I heard that she wanted to meet Fang Zaoshi from the Fang Mansion."

"How is it now?"

"I gave some silver to a servant I knew well and asked around. I don't know what happened to this cousin these past few days. She suddenly seemed to be ill, had no appetite, was restless, and locked herself in her room all day long. Not to mention going to see a doctor. This worried Madam Luo so much that she invited several doctors to come to her house, but I heard they still couldn't find the cause of her illness."

Fu Junyan listened and guessed roughly what happened.

It has been several days, and no news has come out from the Xi family or the Jiang family. I'm afraid this distant relative of the Xi family is timid and has kept the matter secret.

Fu Junyan immediately came up with an idea and handed the handkerchief he picked up to Wu Er: "Find a way to hand this handkerchief to Madam Luo Shao."

I don’t know whether Jiang Mu was too bold or the cousin of the Xi family was too unlucky.

She went out for a trip that day and originally brought her maid with her. The maid had a stomachache due to eating something upset in the morning and had to ask for leave to see a doctor halfway through the trip because she could not bear the stomachache.

The maid was loyal to her duty and insisted on sending her back to the Xi Mansion first. But Miss Biao thought that in broad daylight, what could possibly happen? So she insisted that the maid just leave.

Who knew that when she was passing by Tianzi Lane, she was spotted by Jiang Mu, who was so obsessed with losing that he abducted her into the depths of the alley in broad daylight.

Fortunately, the plan was discovered by Yu Jibao who was lost. Although nothing happened, the frivolous act still frightened the young girl.

Let’s talk about Lin Zhuwei again.

Ever since Yu Jibao got into trouble, Lin Zhuwei drew a portrait based on his description.

She planned to let Amu investigate based on the portrait to find out who hurt Yu Jibao.

At this moment, Lin Zhuwei was throwing darts at the shooting range, and the bull's eye of the dart was exactly the portrait of Jiang Mu who had injured Yu Jibao.

Her dart throwing skills were not very good, and her hit rate was not high. When she missed another dart and was feeling a little annoyed, a sharp arrow shot from behind and flew straight to the target, hitting the bull's eye.

Lin Zhuwei turned around and saw Fu Junyan taking a new arrow and putting it on the bow, walking towards her.

Fu Junyan looked at Jiang Mu's profile picture and asked, "Do you know who he is?"
