The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

After Jiang Ci left the teahouse, he went to the Yongding Marquis Mansion. Now Zhang Tong and others were hiding in Xinyang Prefecture. If he wanted to find out their whereabouts as soon as possible, asking the Liu family for help was undoubtedly the best choice.

After learning about Jiang Ci's purpose, Liu Bin readily agreed to help Jiang Ci arrest the man.

The reason why he chose to help was that the Liu family had already chosen to stand on Jiang Ci's side, so he had to do his best to show his loyalty. Besides, Yue'er had always liked Yan Shu, so even if he didn't do anything, Yue'er would personally intervene in the matter. In addition, the friendship between his wife and Yan Shu was also a reason for him to take action, otherwise his wife would complain and would not let him go back to his room to rest for several days.

Inside the Nuan Pavilion

Nanzhi hurried back from outside.

"Master, Jiang Ci has come to the mansion to see the Marquis. The two are discussing matters in the study room right now."

Liu Hanyue buried his head in writing something and asked coldly, "Oh? What did he talk about with the Marquis?"

"I heard that something happened to the Yan family, and Jiang Ci came to the Marquis to help find the whereabouts of a group of assassins."

Hearing Nanzhi's words, Liu Hanyue paused slightly with the pen in his hand.

"What happened to the Yan family?"

"The Yan family encountered an assassin last night, and the third son of the Yan family seemed to be seriously injured."

Liu Hanyue frowned and thought for a moment, then immediately put down the brush in his hand, stood up and walked out of the house.

Nanzhi followed immediately.

"Master, would you like me to go to the Yan family first to find out something?"

Liu Hanyue didn't stop and hurried outside.

"No need, go prepare the carriage, I will go there myself."

"Yes!"

As soon as Liu Hanyue walked out of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she saw Liu Bin personally escorting Jiang Ci out.

The three of them met each other, and Liu Bin looked Liu Hanyue up and down.

"It's so cold, why did you go out wearing so little? Where are the people waiting on you?"

Hefeng, who was hiding in the dark, immediately appeared.

"It is my negligence. I will go and get you a cloak right away."

Liu Hanyue spoke out to stop him, but her peach blossom eyes looked towards Jiang Ci.

"No need. I am no different from an ordinary person now. My body is not that weak anymore. Mr. Jiang, are you going back home?"

Jiang Ci said: "That's right, Second Young Master, you are in a hurry, but what's the urgent matter?"

Liu Hanyue smiled faintly: "It just so happens that Master Jiang and I are going the same way, can you give me a ride?"

Jiang Ci met Liu Hanyue's gaze and hesitated for a moment: "Since it's on your way, of course you can, please go ahead."

Liu Bin stopped Liu Hanyue and whispered, "Does our family need your carriage?"

"Isn't this on the way? I'm in a hurry to go out so I won't tell you."

After saying these words in a hurry, Liu Hanyue quickened his pace and walked out of the gate of the Marquis' Mansion.

Liu Bin frowned, not knowing what this guy was up to. Didn't he always dislike Jiang Ci? Why didn't he take his own carriage today and insisted on squeezing in with his love rival?

"Follow your master. If he does anything impulsive, be sure to stop him in time."

Jiang Ci has a special identity, Yue'er has a lawless personality, and most importantly, when the love rivals meet, you never know what sparks might fly, which is really worrying.

"Yes!" Hefeng followed immediately.

Liu Hanyue had already boarded Jiang Ci's carriage, and the two sat down facing each other.

Jiang Ci looked calmly at Liu Hanyue who was sitting opposite him.

"Second Master, do you have anything to say to me?"

"The assassination of the Yan family last night must have something to do with you, right? You came to the Marquis' Mansion to see my father today. Did you want to investigate this matter through the Liu family's secret sentry?"

Jiang Ci lowered his eyelids slightly, and his deep eyes stared quietly at the small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet on his wrist.

"If you have anything to say, please speak up."

Liu Hanyue said coldly, "Before you came to Xinyang Prefecture, their family lived a peaceful and comfortable life, but after you appeared, their family was pushed to the forefront. The more you show that you care about Shu'er, the more dangerous she and her family will be. Jiang Ci, you can't have your cake and eat it too. You can't have everything."

Jiang Ci slowly raised his eyes, his gaze was cold and resolute.

"I don't bother to fight for what's not mine, but no one can get their hands on what's mine. You and I both know what the Second Young Master is planning while I'm losing my memory. Do you think I didn't investigate what she's been doing in the past six months before coming to Xinyang? I haven't been able to make her like you in half a year, so the Second Young Master should stop wasting his time."

Liu Hanyue curled her lips playfully and chuckled.

"Are you so sure that she doesn't have me in her heart?"

"Whether she has you in her heart or not should be clearer than me, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten into my carriage and said these words."

Liu Hanyue sneered: "Even if she doesn't like me, do you think she will be with you?"

"Don't worry about our affairs, Second Young Master."

Soon, the carriage stopped outside the Yan family's gate. Liu Hanyue stood up and got off the car. Before leaving, she did not forget to look at Jiang Ci provocatively.

"I don't think the Yan family welcomes Mr. Jiang at this moment, so I won't invite you to go with us."

After saying this, Liu Hanyue curled her lips and chuckled, then stepped on a stool and got off the carriage.

Jiang Ci watched Liu Hanyue enter the Yan family with a cold expression. After a moment of silence, he told the driver to leave.

Yan Wu personally came to open the door and welcome Liu Hanyue into the house.

"I just heard that something happened at home. How is Third Brother Yan doing now?"

Yan Wu said solemnly: "My little sister is still being treated, and she hasn't woken up yet."

Liu Hanyue's face became a little gloomy. Jiang Ci went to the Marquis' Mansion in person today to ask his old man for help, which meant that those killers had not been completely eliminated. It seemed that more people had to be arranged to come recently.

"Is it convenient to go see Third Brother Yan now?"

Yan Wu thought of what Yan Shu had said before entering the space.

"My younger sister said that the third brother is too seriously injured to see visitors recently. Currently, my younger sister and my mother are taking turns to look after him. Even we haven't seen the third brother yet."

Liu Hanyue had witnessed Yan Shu creating all kinds of strange things out of thin air, and knew that she should have taken Yan Huai to that place at this time.

"Since it's not convenient right now, let's wait until Third Brother Yan gets better before visiting him."

-

For the next two days, Yan Shu stayed in the underground laboratory without taking off her clothes and took good care of Yan Huai. On the morning of the third day, she tried again to feed Yan Huai the prepared medicine. This time, the medicine did not all flow out from the corners of his mouth, but flowed into Yan Huai's mouth bit by bit.

Seeing this change, Yan Shu was ecstatic and continued to try to feed the medicine in the bowl to Yan Huai. However, in the end, most of the medicine flowed out from the corners of his mouth, and less than one-third was drunk. However, this result was already great news for Yan Shu.

She tried to feed him spiritual spring water and medicinal decoctions in the past two days, but Yan Huai never responded. The fact that he was able to swallow the medicine today showed that he had acquired the ability to perceive. If she persisted, she believed that the third brother would slowly wake up.

Yan Shu used a handkerchief to wipe the corners of Yan Huai's mouth and spoke to him in a low voice.

"Third brother, everyone in the family is very worried about you. Mom even fainted because of this. Dad, a grown man, couldn't help crying several times. My eldest and second brothers even wished they were the ones who got hurt. I also always feel guilty and often can't help but think how great it would be if the sword had pierced me."

As she spoke, tears filled her eyes and drops of crystal tears flowed down her fair cheeks.

Yan Shu wiped his tears with his sleeve and choked up, "Yutang said that you are making rapid progress in your studies. If you take the exam next year, you might be able to pass the exam and become a Tongsheng. I have always known that you are a good student. Even if you don't have the opportunity to enter the school like others, as long as you are given the opportunity to study, you will definitely achieve success. I also look forward to you passing the exam all the way, from a scholar to a juren, and then to a jinshi. Then you will really bring honor to the family. As your younger sister, I will feel proud when I go out."

Yan Shu would sit in front of the bed every day and talk to Yan Huai. She knew he could hear her. Willpower is crucial to whether a person can survive when he is on the verge of death. Only by giving the third brother the motivation to live can he escape from the critical period.

After covering Yan Huai with the quilt, Yan Shu stood up and left the intensive care unit.

Outside the door, Liu Wenniang had been waiting silently.

Seeing Yan Shu coming out, she hurriedly asked about Yan Huai's situation. Seeing the long-lost smile on her daughter's face, Liu Wenniang's gray eyes suddenly lit up.

"Is your third brother awake?"

"He hasn't woken up yet, but he finally drank some of the medicine today, which means he is conscious, but he can't wake up for the time being. I believe as long as he can keep drinking the medicine, he will wake up soon."

When Liu Wenniang heard this great news, tears started to flow again, but this time they were tears of joy.

Yan Shu hurriedly wiped away Liu Wenniang's tears with his sleeves: "Mother, this is something worth being happy about."

"Yes, yes, I'm happy. I'm so happy to know that your third brother can wake up. My daughter, you have been tired of taking care of your third brother these days. I have prepared the food. Go and eat some, then go back to the room and get some sleep. I will take care of your brother here."

Yan Shu nodded: "Okay, I'll come back in an hour."

"go quickly."

Yan Shu returned to his room, took out a set of clean clothes and went to the bathroom.

Yan Huai's condition has not been optimistic these days. She is not in the mood to eat. Liu Wenniang asked her to take some time to take a nap, but when she lay in bed, her mind was full of various treatment methods and she couldn't fall asleep at all.

Yan Huai's condition improved today, and her mood also improved.

After taking a bath, Yan Shu went to the kitchen to eat some food, then returned to his room to rest, and did not forget to set the alarm before going to bed.

Yan Huai had to keep an eye on the changes in various indicators, so she didn't dare sleep too long. It took her an hour to take a shower and eat, and the remaining hour was enough for her to catch up on some sleep.

at the same time

Outside the Yan family, two groups of men in black met each other. In the past few days, Jiang Ci's men and Liu Hanyue's men were guarding around the Yan family. Both groups knew of each other's existence, but no one said a word to each other.

"Dong dong!"

A slight sound of tiles came from a distance. The secret guards hiding near the Yan family were all top masters. Even though the sound was far away, these subtle movements still could not escape their ears.

Everyone understood and restrained their breath. The places they hid were all extremely hidden blind spots. After waiting for a while, the "dong dong" sound gradually became clearer. After a while, a group of more than a dozen black shadows flew into the alley next to the Yan family.

Not long after, a dozen men in black came flying over.

The leading man in black glanced at the wall of the Yan family's courtyard and said: "We must complete the task today."

"Yes!"

Last time they lost forty assassins but failed to kill even a country woman, and instead exposed their whereabouts. Fortunately, the Grand Princess had a secret hiding place in Xinyang Prefecture, so they escaped the joint pursuit of Jiang Ci and Liu Bin.

He must deal with that woman today, otherwise he will not be able to return to Beijing to report.

When the group was about to jump over the courtyard wall and sneak into the Yan family, torches were lit at the same time at the two exits of the alley. The dark alley suddenly became as bright as day. When the leading man in black saw Jiang Ci in the crowd, his expression suddenly changed.

Why did Jiang Ci appear here?

Tonight he set up a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain. He divided his men into two groups. One group deliberately exposed their whereabouts to attract the attention of Jiang Ci and Liu Bin. He took the opportunity to bring the remaining thirty most skilled assassins to the Yan family to carry out the assassination.

Logically, Jiang Ci should have gone outside the North City at this time, but he appeared here.

Zhang Tong realized instantly that he had been set up and lured into a trap.

"Your Highness the Seventh Prince is a good one who uses the opponent's trick against him."
