After rebirth, I teamed up with the scumbag's mistress

Chapter 84: The Conspiracy of Anyuan Marquis Mansion

"Will the Lu family agree to this marriage?" asked Old Mrs. Li.

"Don't worry about it. I have my own plan." Li Jianzhang's eyes deepened, and then he said, "You can go and ask Li the matchmaker to prepare for the marriage proposal."

Mrs. Li was really in high spirits now. She got down from her chair and said to Li Jianzhang, "Just know what's going on. Mother is happy to work hard for you. Don't worry."

Another person who is also busy with other people's marriages is Liu Yuefu.

Early this morning, Ji Sheng came to Liu Yuefu to report what happened at Anyuan Marquis' Mansion.

Chuntao opened the curtain and saw Ji Sheng, dressed in brown cloth, with a rather gloomy expression on his face.

When Liu Yuefu saw this, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

After Ji Sheng saluted Liu Yuefu, he said in a deep voice: "Madam Liu, this Anyuan Marquis Mansion is really terrible, it is simply a filthy place where people are killed without leaving any bones!"

Liu Yuefu's brows knitted together instantly, "How do I start this?"

Ji Sheng said in a cold voice: "Madam Liu, I found some connections a few days ago and found a tavern. There is a long-servant of the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion who often goes there to drink."

"I heard about this from a low-ranking servant in the Marquis's Mansion, so I went to the tavern to wait, and I found it right away."

"That guy likes wine, so I bought a pot of the best girl's red wine, went to his table, and invited him to drink with me. I also ordered some side dishes. After the wine and food were served, this guy started to talk more."

Ji Sheng's face darkened and he slowly began to talk about what happened that day.

The long-servant of the Anyuan Marquisate drank until his cheeks were red. He staggered while holding up the wine bowl and said, "Do you know how the wife of the Crown Prince of the Anyuan Marquisate died?"

Ji Sheng frowned, "Didn't he die of illness?"

The attendant took a big gulp of wine and said with a sad smile: "No, it's not like that!"

He put down the wine bowl, fell on the table, and laughed miserably. As he laughed, he began to cry, and then his tears became louder and louder.

He hugged Ji Sheng's arm and cried so hard that Ji Sheng's clothes were wet. Ji Sheng shook his attendant helplessly.

The attendant then asked unsteadily, "Why? The Crown Prince's wife is dead. She was kind to me, to me. What am I doing now?"

The attendant grabbed Ji Sheng's arm and said, "Tell me, what am I doing now? I failed to save her in the beginning."

The long-servant seemed to have thought of something. He began to slap himself excitedly, quite hard, one after another.

Ji Sheng had no choice but to hold his hand, "Then tell me, how did she die?"

The attendant pulled his hand away at once, opened his eyes wide, looked at Ji Sheng, and said word by word: "The Crown Prince's wife was killed by the Crown Prince. He was a damn bad bastard!"

"Yes! It's him!" The attendant suddenly grabbed Ji Sheng's arms tightly and murmured excitedly, "He killed the lady! He killed the lady, he is the murderer!"

Ji Sheng was shocked. This, this led to a murder case?

Ji Sheng calmed himself down and asked tentatively, "Isn't that possible? Then why would the prince kill the prince's wife? This doesn't make sense."

The attendant sneered, picked up the wine bowl, and took a big gulp of wine. Some of the wine flowed down the corner of his mouth, "You don't know this, right? The Anyuan Marquis's Mansion is now just a showpiece. It owes a lot of foreign debts, and it has to maintain the dignity of the Marquis' Mansion. It's simply not enough to make ends meet. That's why they came up with the idea of ​​marrying a rich girl to fill the hole."

The attendant's tears kept falling, "It was because of the money that they wanted to kill the Crown Prince's wife. Poor Crown Prince's wife was devoted to the Marquis's Mansion, and she even subsidized her dowry."

"Haha, after you've taken advantage of the Crown Prince's wife, you think she's a nuisance..." Changsui raised the corner of his mouth and said with disdain.

"This is the dignified Anyuan Marquis Mansion. It looks so splendid on the outside, but who could have imagined that it is so filthy on the inside?" The long-servant took another sip of wine and said with emotion.

As Ji Sheng listened, his expression became increasingly gloomy.

It turns out that the Anyuan Marquis Mansion actually had this in mind!

They married Madam Wei and made her the Crown Prince's wife, then embezzled Madam Wei's dowry to fill the holes in the Marquis' Mansion.

So, what happens when the money crisis in the Marquis' Mansion is resolved?

Can the Anyuan Marquis' Mansion still accommodate Madam Wei, who was born into a merchant family and has a reputation as a mistress?

That was probably another case of the Crown Prince's wife "dying of illness".

Afterwards, Ji Sheng spent another two days conducting multiple investigations and gradually found out the economic situation beneath the splendid facade of the Anyuan Marquisate.

Ji Sheng then realized that what he had previously investigated was just what the Anyuan Marquisate wanted him to find out.

After the matter was confirmed, Ji Sheng hurried to report it to Liu Yuefu.

After hearing this, Liu Yuefu felt extremely scared.

Otherwise, if Wei Suxin was fooled by the Anyuan Marquis, wouldn't that mean she would have just escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den? !

But how can I explain this matter to Wei Suxin?

Liu Yuefu rubbed her temples and felt that her head was very bald.

Liu Yuefu thought about it again and again, and felt that this matter could not be delayed, so she called Chuntao, "Chuntao, make an appointment with Madam Wei to meet at the teahouse in Ruyifang this afternoon."

"Yes." After hearing Liu Yuefu's instructions, Chuntao immediately went to Ruyifang to deliver the message.

In the afternoon, Liu Yuefu came to the private room of the teahouse early.

Wei Suxin arrived after a while.

Wei Suxin's face seemed to be caressed by a spring breeze, with a sweet hormonal scent.

Liu Yuefu's heart sank. Could it be that she had fallen into a trap? If they got engaged, it would be troublesome.

Wei Suxin smiled and sat down next to Liu Yuefu, pouring a cup of tea for Liu Yuefu and herself.

She took a sip and asked, "What's wrong with you? Is your business not doing well somewhere?"

Liu Yuefu shook her head. "No, Suxin, have you had any interactions with the Anyuan Marquis's son recently?"

Wei Suxin's hand holding the teacup trembled, and the tea in it almost spilled. She looked at Liu Yuefu in surprise and said, "How did you know?"

"Don't worry about how I know this. Now, I have something important to tell you." Liu Yuefu said, holding Wei Suxin's hand.

Wei Suxin tilted her head, "No, Yuefu, what's wrong with you? I'm a little scared when you're like this..."

Liu Yuefu held her forehead with her hand and said sternly, "Tell me honestly, how far have you and the Anyuan Marquis progressed?"

"I...I have nothing wrong with him, it's just..." Wei Suxin felt inexplicably guilty.

"Just what?" Liu Yuefu asked.

"He confessed to me some time ago." Wei Suxin said nervously.

"What about you? Did you agree?" Liu Yuefu's eyes suddenly widened.

"No, no." Wei Su said hurriedly.

"I think about what you said to me in the past. Although I really, really have feelings for him." Wei Suxin paused and said, "But I also know my identity. In such a great Qi Dynasty, if the prince and I succeed, it would be something that only happens in a storybook."

"Has the Marquis' Mansion invited a matchmaker to propose marriage?" Liu Yuefu asked.
