After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.

Lord Yao really wanted to pick up the whip on the ground and whip Song Wenyuan in the face with it, so that he could feel again whether he was weak or not.

Of course, he didn't dare.

Not to mention that he didn't dare to hit Song Wenyuan, just Song Wenyuan's face... If he really hit him, I'm afraid that the young lady who was stroking the dog with a "kind look" would hit him in the face. This couple is not easy to deal with, and each is more cruel than the other.

He suppressed his inner thoughts and turned to ask Ding Shengcai who that person was. However, Ding Shengcai just shook his head and said, "I have never seen her face. She always wears black clothes and a bamboo hat, and her whole body is wrapped up tightly, not even a finger is exposed. I only know that she is a woman, and her age cannot be determined from her voice... Since I am just a medicine man for her to test the medicine, how could she let me know who she is?"

Another woman?

The three of them felt that there was something strange that they couldn't explain. It seemed that there was a woman in the whole thing. First, Liu Mazi rescued a girl from a fire. In order to repay his life-saving grace, the girl was willing to marry him. But on the day of his visit, Liu Mazi disappeared, and the girl didn't come. The woman of unknown origin knew some witch doctor skills and secretly found someone to test the medicine. Coincidentally, the woman also recognized Liu Mazi. The former knew nothing except that half of his face was burned by the fire, and the latter... only knew that she was a woman.

Could it be that this is the same woman? Jiaxiang is a necessary material, and it is controlled by the Maritime Customs. She needs a lot of Jiaxiang, so she can only get it through abnormal channels - smuggled goods sold in dark alleys. If she rashly goes to Lao Liu's spice shop to inquire about this thing, she will only get a cold shoulder like Yuan Ge did at the beginning, so she manipulated a fire, exchanged half of her face for Liu Mazi's trust, and then recommended him to Ding Shengcai and "Ding Shengcai" on the grounds of "introducing business" for him.

Old Man Liu also said that the poor girl had no skills and could only earn some money by washing clothes for rich families. In this case, it was normal for her to know so many "Ding Shengcai"s.

Ding Shengcai was taken away. When he went down, he looked no different from a lifeless corpse. Even his protruding eyeballs looked particularly dim and lifeless.

Yao Yunfeng sighed, picked up the whip on the ground and swung it, as if trying to shake off the flesh and blood that belonged to someone unknown on the whip. He asked Yuan Ge, "Then this person... I'm afraid he won't live long, right?"

"A borrowed life span is not your own after all. Although I don't know how this so-called witch doctor's technique was achieved, I guess it can't be separated from that filthy thing. I'm afraid this life...will only last until the medicine loses its effect. Poor him, he still thought he could live out his life in this imperial prison." Yuan Ge shrunk his legs on the stool, rubbed the little white dog's two front paws, and then turned his head to look at Yao Yunfeng, "Lord Yao, why don't you check the files of the fire in the city during this period, maybe you can find some clues about the girl."

Yao Yunfeng was about to move forward with this in mind. He nodded and was about to go ahead when Song Wenyuan called him back. "Please send the innocent citizen involved, the old man from the Liu family, back home and comfort him."

Some of the words were pronounced with great emphasis.

Yao Yunfeng was stunned for a moment, but fortunately the tacit understanding they had from many collaborations was still there, so he understood everything immediately and took his men to send Old Man Liu, who had long been "moved by emotion, reasoned with, and used threats and inducements" by the Jinyiwei, back home.

In the huge prison, all the annoying people left. Song Wenyuan looked at the little girl who was having fun playing with the dog, softened his brows, and asked her softly, "Do you like these little things?" Last time it was a parrot, this time it was a puppy. She took all the little toys from Song Ziyao without mercy. I don't know how these two people became so familiar with each other, and they even seemed to have a kind of "birds of a feather flock together", which is really annoying.

Yuan Ge looked back and chuckled, "I like it."

The firelight from the stove was imprinted in her eyes, warm and bright, making people unable to help but get close to it. Song Wenyuan raised his hand, then gently put it down, and said calmly, "In that case, keep it. Have you given it a name?" Although it was the imperial prison, a place that she once hated extremely, at this moment, she felt her heart soften because of this man's gentle and soothing smile, but there was an inexplicable dull pain in her chest, as if some emotions had been suppressed for too long.

Yuan Ge looked at the little white dog, then at Song Wenyuan, and almost squatted on the stool, turned around and said with a smile, "Xiaobai. Wen Xiaobai, how is it?" She used her last name, and although it sounded like a question, Song Wenyuan didn't think that his opinion could influence her decision. Besides, Wen Xiaobai is pretty good.

"Yeah." He nodded, speaking concisely.

He felt more and more depressed and uncomfortable in his chest, but his face still didn't show it at all, so he turned pale. Yuan Ge saw it and subconsciously touched his forehead with the back of his hand, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

The flower fragrance in the little girl's hair overwhelmed the familiar smell in the Imperial Prison. The warm fingertips touched the cold forehead, like a spring breeze blowing, and the ice surface that had been frozen for a winter had a few invisible cracks. All the suppressed emotions rushed to the cracks, and the ice shattered. He raised his hand, grasped the other's fingertips, calmed his emotions and whispered, "It's okay... The Imperial Prison smells bad, go back."

The voice has changed, with a suppressed tremor.

Yuan Ge nodded and said okay, without pulling her hand back - the man was squeezing the ground so hard that it hurt her a little, so she thought he was not feeling well and was just trying to hold on.

The two people's thoughts were almost diametrically opposed.

It wasn't the first time they held hands, but this time Song Wenyuan felt his heart beat particularly fast, like a young man who was naive to the world. His heart was beating like a pounding drum, while pretending to chat casually, "Song Ziyao doesn't have much money, and he has to save money for a month to buy one or two things, and now you have taken them all... I'm afraid my aunt and sister-in-law will have a lot of complaints, and he can't explain it. If you want anything in the future, tell me and I'll give it to you." It was a bit uncomfortable to see his own wife surrounded by other people's things, so when he was holding the dog just now, Song Wenyuan had been thinking about whether to find an opportunity to throw it away and pretend to be careless... He hesitated for a long time, looking at the silly look in his arms, and finally didn't do it.

Wen Xiaobai is also very smart. When he is in the little girl's arms, he is full of energy and acts cute and obedient. But when he comes to me, he pretends to be dead - he is like a spirit, just like his master.

"Okay." Yuan Ge had no idea that his young puppy had almost experienced a life-or-death crisis, and he smiled in a flattering and servile manner, "Thank you, Master Song."

This man and this dog really have some similarities.
