The Male Wife

That night, Pei Cheng was half-lying happily on the low couch reading a book, holding a chubby Jiangyan biting his hand in his arms, when suddenly the door was pushed open from the outside.

Jiang Lin walked in from the outside with a cold face, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi with a confused face, wondering what's wrong with the man, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Linzhi pursed his lips and did not speak, but sat silently on the chair.

Pei Cheng had a hunch that something was wrong, he straightened up, and handed Jiang Yan who was still leaning on him to the nanny who was standing aside, "Take him to Jiang Yanzhi, and let Yanzhi watch him."

Nanny nodded.

After Jiang Yan was hugged and left by the nanny, Pei Cheng took a step forward, sat beside Jiang Linzhi, and asked while pouring tea, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Linzhi said with a sullen face: "...The imperial capital has now withdrawn the arrest warrant for the second prince, and the news is that the second prince has already died, and the reason is that he accidentally died while fighting against the little leader of the foreign army. I hope that he will be successful, so I revoked the arrest warrant for the second prince, and set up a tomb for him in the royal family."

"If that's the case, why are you still angry?" Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi in confusion, the man's silence made Pei Cheng feel that this matter might not be so simple.

Sure enough, Jiang Lin's next sentence was: "The news from my eyeliner in the military camp is that the second prince did not sacrifice, but the Jiang family brothers deliberately let the eyeliner of the imperial capital see the second prince died in order to protect the second prince." One scene, but in fact the second prince has left the barracks now."

Pei Cheng was completely taken aback, "If the second prince hadn't died, wouldn't it be us who are unlucky now?"

Jiang Linzhi was silent, but this expression told Pei Cheng that it was true.

Pei Cheng licked his lips nervously, with an unpredictable expression on his face, he pursed his lips, his lips were a little chapped, "Did you tell Shi Tienan about this matter, no matter what, you should talk to Shi Tienan first, otherwise, if After the second prince made a special trip to Xinxinan, he found that the money was missing, and we must be the ones who will have trouble."

"No matter what happens now, the second prince has left the barracks. Although the second prince did not disclose the news when he left, the second prince must be coming to New Southwest." Jiang Linzhi took a sip of tea, which was cold , but it did not hinder Jiang Linzhi at all.

This shows how irritable Jiang Linzhi is now.

"But this does not mean that the matter will really be so difficult to solve. How about this, or we will send people to guard at the gate of the city, and once we find the second prince, we will arrest them. All the official bank has been destroyed now, if the second prince finds out about this, he will definitely choose to poke this matter into the ears of the new emperor in a frenzy. No one will end well by then." Pei Cheng comforted him, this In fact, in Pei Cheng's opinion, the matter is not really difficult to solve.

As long as the second prince is caught, and then we can discuss it well with the other party, maybe this matter won't be so difficult to solve.

Jiang Linzhi thought about things a little more calmly than Pei Cheng, "Well, we can't worry about this right now, just as you said, we will send people to guard at the gate of the city first, and once we find the second prince, we will arrest them , we will discuss it later.”

Pei Cheng felt a little annoyed, "Should we call Shi Tienan to discuss with him now, this matter was caused by him, he can't be more relaxed than us.

"There is no need to rush this matter." Jiang Linzhi said, "I have already sent someone to the City Lord's Mansion to tell Shi Tienan the news, and Shi Tienan will take the initiative to take measures at that time. The trouble now is not actually this matter, but... "

Pei Cheng looked at Jiang Linzhi anxiously, waiting for the answer.

Jiang Linzhi looked at Pei Cheng and said: "The most troublesome thing now is that the second prince will not appear in Xinxinan in person, but find someone to appear in Xinxinan. We don't know who the second prince will look for. If... If the second prince finds out about this, I'm afraid there won't be any big troubles."

"The second prince should not take the initiative to make things big now." Pei Cheng's thoughts turned quickly, "Now the entire Hua Kingdom has withdrawn the arrest warrant for the second prince, but even so, it is because the second prince died. Your Majesty has just withdrawn the arrest warrant, if there is news that the second prince is still alive, I am afraid that the imperial capital will issue a second arrest warrant."

Jiang Linzhi nodded, signaling Pei Cheng to continue.

Pei Cheng didn't hide anything, and directly said everything he thought of now, "The most important thing is that the news of the second prince's fake death came from the barracks, and the Jiang family brothers will definitely send someone to the second prince to let the second prince go. Following the second prince secretly, they will definitely want to know where the second prince has hidden the official money."

"The news that the second prince can figure out that he has hidden all the money in the treasury in advance is definitely not a fool. If the Jiang family brothers really send someone to pass the false news of the second prince's death to the imperial capital, then this matter will be the second. The prince will definitely know. I think the second prince will not be so stupid as to go to Xinxinan to get money as soon as he leaves the barracks, right?" Pei Cheng thought differently, thinking that if it was him, would he be the first to get money? Run over and take the silver away.

The answer is definitely not.

Pei Cheng's tone became more and more determined: "If it were us, when we were out of danger, but before we were completely sure whether we were being followed or not, we would definitely not easily bring those who followed us to Own lair."

"The Second Prince has no identity or money, and the official bank hidden in Xinxinan may be the only money he has now. He will definitely not easily tell others where the money is hidden and ask others to help him I took it. After going through so many things one after another, I think the second prince will have a certain degree of vigilance no matter who he is facing." Pei Cheng narrowed his eyes and analyzed bit by bit that the second prince is most likely to Things to do.

Because the analysis was so serious that Pei Cheng didn't even notice that Jiang Linzhi looked at him as if he was looking at a hunter who was about to collect his net.

And the prey in the net is probably Pei Cheng.

Jiang Linzhi listened to Pei Cheng's thorough analysis of the analysis, and then said: "If it is you, when will you plan to withdraw the money."

"I heard that the reason why the second prince died was because he was shot by an arrow, so he was regarded as dead by the eyeliner of the imperial capital, and it happened that he was misled by the Jiang family brothers, which led the new emperor to mistakenly think that the second prince was It's really dead, but it's not like that."

Jiang Linzhi said lightly.

Pei Cheng frowned and said, "Since that's the case, if I were the second prince, it's even more impossible for me to come to New Southwest as soon as I left the barracks."

"How do you say it?" Jiang Linzhi looked at Pei Cheng with interest, intending to get another more novel answer from him The back road, and now his inquiry is to test what he will think.

In other words, Jiang Linzhi is testing whether Pei Cheng will be stupid for three years after being pregnant.

After serious thinking, Pei Cheng said: "If it were me, I would think that there must be a conspiracy for the Jiang family brothers to risk such a big risk to help me cross the sea. As for the conspiracy, it is probably... for the official bank."

"Who in the whole world doesn't know that the official bank that the second prince stole from the treasury is enough to support half of the farmers in Huaguo for a lifetime. Who doesn't want money, so if I were the second prince, I would definitely doubt the Jiang family Brother also wanted to monopolize that batch of official money, so he deliberately spared his life."

Jiang Linzhi said: "The Jiang family has been generals for generations, how could the general family care about the money?"

"Because the Jiang family is a family of generals, when they choose to protect a second prince who hides two-thirds of the national treasury, the second prince is even more suspicious. If I were the second prince, I would really Doubt." Pei Cheng looked into Jiang Linzhi's eyes seriously, "Don't say I would be suspicious, I'm afraid if it were you, you would be suspicious too."

Jiang Linzhi smiled, nodded, and said: "This matter really needs to be discussed in the long term. Even if the second prince will take a while to get rid of the Jiang Family Brotherhood before he will feel the new Southwest, he will eventually come to the New Southwest. Wait for him to come After arriving in New Southwest, if it is found that all the official banks have been destroyed, something will definitely be done."

Pei Cheng is also worried about this matter, but now he is worried and there is nothing he can do, "All the official bank has been destroyed now, if he is really angry, there is nothing he can do, at most, I will give him the silver jewelry shop gone."

Pei Cheng is very open about things like money.

If he didn't really know that Pei Cheng had secretly sent someone to buy a small batch of fields in Hwaseong and Xinxinan in his own name and rent them out, and then bought some facades and rented them out, Jiang Linzhi might really believe it Pei Cheng.

——Pei Cheng used all the money he saved in the past few years to invest in it some time ago, bought a few storefronts in the old streets of Xinxinan and Huacheng and rented them out, and then bought some fields with the rest of the name to resell rent it out.

Jiang Linzhi knew about it but didn't intend to pay attention to it.

It's just a few small gatehouses and fields, and it's not a lot of money anyway, not to mention that the money doesn't belong to Jiang Linzhi, it's all Pei Cheng's own.

Pei Cheng propped his chin, "I have invested all my savings over the years, and now I have no money."

Coincidentally, there was a knock on the door, and Steward Jiang was speaking at the door.

Jiang Linzhi took out a small key from his waist and threw it in front of Pei Cheng, "Get it yourself."

Pei Cheng: "..."

Why does Jiang Linzhi hide money everywhere?

Steward Jiang stood at the door anxiously, and said, "Master, the Shi family is fighting."

"Who?"

Pei Cheng poked his head out.

"Shi Tienan beat up Shi Sanqing, the Shi family is in trouble now." Steward Jiang said anxiously.
