Back at the inn, Yu Wenhao entertained Yu Wenjue to sit down for dinner in the lobby. The reason for choosing the lobby was very simple, but he wanted to find out the news.

The four of them each occupied one side, and Yu Wenjue avoided those complicated rules, such messy rules that the emperor does not sit at the same table with the people were all thrown out of the sky by her.

"Brother Liu, where did your family live?" Yu Wenjue asked while eating his meal.

When Liu Jingyan saw Yu Wenjue asking himself, he immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks and cupped his fists and said, "There is a courtyard house in the west of the city, which was my original home, but now it is used by the county magistrate's son Chen Xiaodong as a place to entertain scholars." There was unwillingness in his words.

"Xiaohao, I will send someone to find a mansion in the west of the city to live in later. It is impossible to stay in the inn all the time, and it is not convenient." Yu Wenjue ordered.Then start with this young man.

"it is good."

"Thank you, my lord!" Liu Jingyan happily thanked him repeatedly after hearing this.

"Call me son outside." Yu Wenjue reminded softly.

"Yes yes yes. Thank you, my lord." Liu Jingyan scratched the back of his head and replied.

"Husband, eat more." Jue Chenxi saw that Yu Wenjue had a surprisingly good appetite today, so she put green vegetables in a bowl for her.

Yu Wenjue shrugged when he saw it, "Ma'am, I want to eat meat."

"My husband should have a combination of meat and vegetables." Jue Chenxi noticed that Yu Wenjue hadn't eaten vegetables since eating.Fearing that she would be bored with oil, I picked vegetables for her.

"Sister-in-law, this is how big brother eats, as if anyone would grab him." Yu Wenhao joined in the fun and started to tease.

Yu Wenjue swallowed the food in his mouth, and then retorted, "You don't know how hateful those slaves were. After my mother passed away, they bullied me and my sister when they were young. They only had two dishes a day, and the rest were They are not allowed to eat at all. If I don’t eat quickly, they will take it down.”

Jue Chenxi's right hand, which was holding on to the chopsticks, froze for a moment, hanging in mid-air.The slaves Yu Wenjue spoke of were eunuchs, and the people around Yu Wenjue must have been arranged by the prince.

It is hard to imagine that the king of a country actually lived such a young life.There was some inexplicable pain in my heart.

"What, son, there is such a servant? According to the law of my court, bullying the master will be decapitated."

Liu Jingyan was indignant, and couldn't help but think of his own family, although it wasn't very rich, it was harmonious.It is true that every family has a difficult scripture to recite.

"My approach to the law is a bit too harsh, too cruel, and inhumane." Yu Wenjue lowered his voice, discussing in a low voice that only four people could hear.

The emperor's kindness is the blessing of the world.Jue Chenxi praised secretly, unexpectedly, the issue that this child cares about is also the key to the empire.

Just make myself more convinced that Yu Wenjue is a talented person who can become a responsible master of the country.

"Hush! Young Master, please keep your voice down, lest someone overhear you and cause trouble!"

Liu Jingyan is deeply persecuted by this shameless county magistrate, it's better not to startle the snake.

Yu Wenjue looked indifferent, waved his hands and said, "Don't worry, no one knows that the sky is high and the emperor is far away."

"Hey, do you think it really looks like a famine here?" Yu Wenjue mentioned this question inadvertently, but he actually came prepared.

Liu Jingyan looked around, then shook his head, "It's not like that."

Yu Wenjue put down his chopsticks and fell into deep thought. What should I do to find the entry point of the incident?

The emperor's uncle also sent people to investigate on the spot, and what was reported was indeed a natural disaster. It seems that many officials participated in this deception. Shadow went to investigate the governor's office and didn't come back for a day. Let's meet Liu Zhi County first.

Jue Chenxi slowly began to discover that Yu Wenjue had concealed and reserved things from the world.

Is Yu Wenjue's innocence real or an act?Is this good or bad?If it's the latter, it's terrible.

Yu Wenhao took Liu Jingyan to find a place near their mansion, while Yu Wenjue went upstairs to rest.

"Madam has been tired all day, why don't you take a rest?" Yu Wenjue sat on the bed, calling Jue Chenxi who was reading at the round wooden table.

"Husband, how can you sleep right after eating?" Jue Chenxi raised her eyebrows and asked.

"Um... how dare you call me a pig?" Yu Wenjue reacted after he realized it.

"I have asked Xiao Er to boil the water, my husband still scalds his feet after playing in the water today, to get rid of the cold." Jue Chenxi said lightly.

"Is your lady with me?"

Jue Chenxi glared at her, but said nothing.

In the middle of the night, Yu Wenjue opened his eyes and called out softly, "Ma'am-Ma'am—"

He didn't hear an answer for a long while, so he tiptoed out of bed and hurriedly picked up his cloth boots in the dark.Push the door and go out.

After Yu Wenjue went out, Jue Chenxi's eyes, which were originally closed, slowly opened.It seemed even more unfathomable in the darkness.

Behind a rockery in the courtyard of the inn, there was a black shadow kneeling in front of Yu Wenjue, who turned out to be the shadow who had been sent out to find clues.

"What's wrong?" Yu Wenjue asked in a low voice.

"Master, there is something tricky. The treasury has 5000 taels of cymbals. Half of them were detained when they left the capital. Then officials at all levels detained them layer by layer. After arriving at the governor of Dezhou, they distributed them to each county magistrate." Shadow reflected truthfully.

"There is no natural disaster at all. This time it seems that these officials have colluded with a case of embezzlement of public funds. Internal and external support, it seems that they have also deceived the emperor."

This plan is really good. Relying on the sky and the emperor's distance, this vicious case was created.

Grasping Yu Wenhu's psychology of not wanting to take responsibility, he can do whatever he wants.If it weren't for this disaster that pointed the finger at Huang Jie, I'm afraid I wouldn't insist on coming here in person.

"I want a list of officials involved in this matter. You increase your manpower and check them all for me."

Yu Wenjue figured that if he found someone who took the lead, the matter would be easy to handle. Taking this as a threat and including it in his own tent, he could also slowly sway the power of the emperor's uncle.

"Yes." After finishing speaking, Shadow left using lightness kung fu.There was a sneer on the corner of Yu Wenjue's mouth.

——Chen Shi——

"Husband, wake up." Jue Chenxi called Yu Wenjue, who was sprawling, with a wooden basin.

"Hmm—" Yu Wenjue rubbed his sleepy eyes.

"Early in the morning yesterday, Mr. Chen sent a message to invite you to be a guest at the book garden." Just as Jue Chenxi went out to fetch water, Yu Wenhao gave the message to himself.Ask Yu Wenjue for his opinion.

Yu Wenjue was still distracted, and fell down again in a daze.

Jue Chenxi had no choice but to put down the wooden basin in her hand to help Yu Wenjue, "Husband... get up soon."

When Jue Chenxi's fingers touched the skin on Yu Wenjue's neck, a tingling sensation hit her fingertips.

Only then did I realize that the child did not have an Adam's apple, but after thinking about it, he was still a child.Comfort yourself because you worry too much.

Yu Wenjue opened his eyes instantly, "What is Madam looking at me for?"

Jue Chenxi looked away in embarrassment, "It's nothing, when will my husband wake up?"

"Uh, let's do it now. The book you mentioned just now was Liu Jingyan's former home?" Yu Wenjue asked while putting on his clothes.

"Yes. It is true that after the Liu family property was confiscated, it was changed to Shuwan by Chen Xiaodong, and it is also a place where literati gather."

Jue Chenxi said lightly, she discovered Yu Wenjue's little secret last night, and the way she looks at her today is a bit more complicated.

"Is there really any reason for this? Since it is said to be confiscated, why is it used for your own use?" Yu Wenjue sneered. No one with any sense would believe this excuse, right?

"The husband is going or not?"

"Go, of course. I'll see who this Mr. Chen is. At that time, I hope Madam will give me some pointers." Yu Wenjue clasped his fists cheerfully and laughed.

Jue Chenxi didn't answer.But it is also the default.

When Yu Wenjue appeared in front of Shuwan's door with Jue Chenxi, Chen Xiaodong had already brought people over to greet him.But his eyes stayed on Jue Chenxi.

Yu Wenjue became upset, and immediately stood in front of Jue Chenxi, so that people could only see the top of Jue Chenxi's head.

"Hey, brother Chen, how long have you seen me? What's wrong with your eyes? I'm here, why are you looking at my wife? Why don't you find a doctor to show you? See what's wrong with you?"

Yu Wenjue has a straightforward personality, what to say, she doesn't like Chen Xiaodong from the bottom of her heart, she is probably an idle son, the son of a county magistrate, she naturally doesn't pay attention to it, she scolds Chen Xiaodong for being cowardly without any hesitation Sponsorship.

The words made Chen Xiaodong very embarrassed in front of the scholar he was taking in. He couldn't figure out the origin of Yu Wenjue, so he had to bear it.

He smiled superficially, "Brother Wen doesn't know something, I do have some problems with my eyes sometimes, so don't blame me if I offend you."

Yu Wenjue chuckled, "You're welcome. Brother Chen has an eye disease. Don't worry about treating your eyes. I will reimburse you."

"Then thank you, Brother Wen." Chen Xiaodong's face darkened immediately.Is this still kicking your nose on your face?

I just haven't found out his origin for the time being, so why don't you give him some face?

However, Yu Wenjue dresses extravagantly, spends money generously, behaves perversely, and is moody. At first glance, he is either rich or expensive.It's not easy to offend if you don't find out.

Jue Chenxi listened to Yu Wenjue and Chen Xiaodong's secret rivalry, her red lips raised, her personality was that of a child.

But after thinking about it, is it really a child's personality?It's really hard for people to see through Yu Wenjue.

"Be polite." Yu Wenjue climbed up the pole.Immediately pretended to be generous.

"Brother Wen, Mrs. Wen, please take your seat. I have a question and I would like to ask Brother Wen for advice."

Chen Xiaodong underestimated Yu Wenjue at first.Originally, I wanted to win over and be a friend, but I didn't know that they didn't buy it at all.

But his wife is really the rare best in the world.It doesn't matter if you don't be friends, but you won't be soft when you become enemies.

Seeing Chen Xiaodong's expression, Yu Wenjue knew that nothing good was going on, so he snorted coldly and walked in swaggeringly.

Yu Wenjue's sarcasm was not easy to detect, but it was captured skillfully by Jue Chenxi who was beside him.
