Jiang Rong felt a burst of surprise in his heart.
My mother’s manuscripts still exist!
Jiang Rong looked at Jiang Cai, as if looking at a dead person:
"Okay. As long as you hand over the manuscript, I will spare your life today."
Xie Lingxi raised her eyebrows slightly, "You don't have to spare his life to pry open his mouth and get what you want."
When Jiang Cai heard this, he was so frightened that his two legs trembled...
He had heard rumors that those dandy boys were very proficient in torturing slaves.
He knows his integrity very well, and he will definitely not be able to withstand the punishment...
"Second Miss, I saved the first lady's manuscript, so I owe you a lot of merit!" Jiang Cai defended hurriedly.
Jiang Rong's thin lips curled into a hint of mockery.
Stealing her mother's belongings and selling them for profit...
Such a disloyal person had the nerve to sell her mother's relics for money. It was all due to him.
Jiang Cai must die.
But not now.
"Well... Counting your contribution, I'll let you go today." Jiang Rong said.
She means what she says.
If you say you won’t kill him today, you will definitely kill him another day.
"Thank you very much, Miss Second! Miss Second is generous, kind and kind. I will be loyal to you from now on!" Jiang Cai hurriedly expressed his loyalty.
Xie Lingxi glanced slightly at Jiang Rong's face and said nothing more. Since Jiang Rong doesn't want to kill, then let her.
……
Half an hour later.
Jiang Rong re-locked the copper lock of the bookstore and pretended that he had never been there.
Jiang Cai moved two boxes of manuscript copies from his residence. He has copied many copies of the prescriptions in this manuscript and sold them...
There are also some messy pharmacological manuscripts that cannot be compiled into volumes and sold because they are incomprehensible.
"If my aunt asks, have I been in the bookstore today, you know how to answer." Jiang Rong said calmly.
This is why she didn't kill Jiang Cai.
In order to prevent Chang from discovering something was wrong in advance.
"I understand, the second lady didn't open the bookcase! You don't know anything." Jiang Cai's face was full of flattery.
He has sold the Chang family to Jiang Rong.
Of course, I wouldn't dare to blow myself up in front of Mr. Chang.
He was still secretly glad that Jiang Rong did not go to settle accounts with Chang, otherwise, he would definitely be dealt with by Chang.
Jiang Rong's eyes swept across the villa one by one, and finally landed on the small flower field in front of the book pavilion.
The flowers in front of the bookstore were planted by my mother herself.
My mother especially loves peonies. There are seven or eight peonies planted in this fence, ranging from Yao, Huang, and Wei Zi. They are so colorful and delicate that they are so beautiful.
She must protect the things her mother left behind.
"Move all these flowers out, I want to take them back to the palace." Jiang Rong ordered.
Jiang Cai didn't dare to have any objections to Jiang Rong at this time. Without any hesitation, he ordered the gardener to transplant them into flower pots, and then carried the pots into the carriage one by one...
……
Uncle Zhongyi's mansion, the back house.
"Jiang Rong went to Yuquan Villa today? What was she going to do?" Mrs. Chang looked at Ying Xia who was reporting in front of her.
Jiang Rong went out in front, and secretly came in to report the news to Mr. Chang.
"The second young lady didn't say anything." Yingxia replied, "The second young lady is taking the prince with her, maybe to see the sea of flowers."
Chang, on the other hand, had a thoughtful and overthinking temperament. After pondering for a moment, an idea suddenly struck him:
"I gave her the key to the villa yesterday!"
In that bunch of keys, there is the key to the villa's main door, the key to the villa's treasure house, and most importantly, the key to the bookstore!
She immediately had a bad feeling in her heart.
She didn't want Jiang Rong to discover any clues at such a critical moment.
Yesterday I was only thinking about the Xie family's property, but I didn't think about this incident for a while.
"Second Madam, please rest assured. Second Young Lady goes to the Villa every year, but never enters the library. The First Madam's relics are sealed there, and she will not disturb them easily." Mammy comforted her.
Mrs. Chang sighed quietly, "I have always acted cautiously, but that noble man had such a lawless temper and insisted on burning the manuscripts left by Mr. Bai. Alas, this kind of thing should not be done after killing Jiang Rong. Do it?"
"But she couldn't wait to destroy Bai's hard work. She couldn't wait for a moment."
Mammy comforted her, "This year, the second lady has not noticed. You have taught her to be well-behaved and sensible. Even if she sees the manuscript being burned, she will never doubt you... What did you say, she Everyone will believe it.”
"Of course I am sure that she will listen to me. It's just an extra trouble. The noble person will really leave me a mess." Mrs. Chang paused and said:
"Send a message and ask Jiang Cai to come over after Jiang Rong leaves."
"yes."
As soon as Jiang Rong left, Jiang Cai immediately took orders to see Chang.
"What's the second lady doing in the villa today?" Mrs. Chang asked.
Jiang Cai felt weak in his heart, but his face was as steady as an old dog. If he couldn't even do this little bit of face-saving, he wouldn't be able to sit firmly in his position:
"I came around and dug up the peonies left by the eldest lady."
"Is that so..." Ms. Chang felt relieved and asked casually, "Can she go into the book pavilion?"
"No." Jiang Cai replied immediately.
"You have worked hard to guard Yuquan Villa for so many years. I gave the land deed to the Villa to Jiang Rong, but it was just a formality. Everything is as usual. Do you understand?" Mrs. Chang typed slowly.
Jiang Cai kowtowed very respectfully, "I understand. You are the only master of the villa, and I and others are loyal to you!"
Chang said, her eyes paused briefly on his red and swollen face, and then looked at the obvious blood stain on his neck: "Who hit this?"
"Second Madam, the Northern Prince is too domineering! They are all crown princes..." Jiang Cai immediately said with a look of grief and anger:
"This old slave just complained and he was almost replaced... You have to make the decision for me!"
Mrs. Chang recalled Xie Lingxi's behavior yesterday and said, "Xie Lingxi is now confused by Jiang Rong. You must obey everything and don't rush into them... You have been wronged. Someone, give Manager Jiang a bottle of golden sore medicine and seal it Five hundred taels of silver."
"Old slave, thank you, Second Madam!" Jiang Cai looked like he was crying with gratitude, and left with the silver and medicine in his arms.
Mrs. Chang was also relieved. It's good that Jiang Rong didn't notice.
……
On the way back home.
"Master, can these two boxes of books be stored in your study first?" Jiang Rong asked.
Xie Lingxi was very grand, "I ordered someone to clean up a study room for you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. However, I don't want people to know that I got these two boxes of books." Jiang Rong said.
She also has the spy Ying Xia by her side.
A fleeting thought flashed in Xie Lingxi's eyes, "Okay. Jingzhe, carry it to Mo Yanzhai. If you want to use it, come over anytime."
"Yes." Jingzhe accepted the order.
Xiao Nanxing couldn't help but secretly clicked his tongue. That's where we usually plot. Did the prince kick him out?
Returning to Jinyuyuan, Yingxia immediately greeted her.
Jiang Rong pretended that nothing had happened and ordered her to transplant the peonies in the yard.
After standing in front of the window sill and looking at the peonies quietly for a while, Jiang Rong looked away. It turns out there is someone behind the Chang family.
No wonder, she was able to obtain the underworld's strange poison.
