Chapter 97: Adulterer and Adulterer

Du Hua's original purpose of doing this was to prevent the people sent by Shangguan Qian from embezzling some of the money on the way, and to let Shangguan Qian see the meticulous aspects of his work, so he thought of this, but what he didn't expect was that his move was convenient for Su Muwan.

After hearing his words, Su Muwan was a little surprised. She was worried that she didn't know any evidence, but she didn't expect that the evidence would come by herself now.

This is really sleepy, so someone handed over the pillow!

But she quickly adjusted her expression and showed a satisfied smile on her face.

"Mr. Du is indeed thorough in doing things and even made a list. The eldest prince will definitely appreciate you more by then. But I don't know if I can let me take a look at this list first, so I can have a lot of money in my heart."

Du Hua pondered for a while, and finally nodded in agreement.

"I'll just show it to the special envoy, but it's important. I hope the special envoy will not reveal any rumors to the outside world, otherwise it may cause a big disaster."

Su Muwan blinked her eyes and smiled at him with her lips.

"Mr. Du, we are all working for the eldest prince. We are naturally grasshoppers on the same rope. How could we not know this truth? The trees fall and the money scattered. We are sharing wealth and hardships. Don't you believe me?"

Du Hua took out a piece of paper from his chest and gave it to Su Muwan with both hands.

"It made the envoy laugh. This list is too important, so the officials always carry it with them, for fear of something wrong."

Su Muwan said nothing, opened the list, glanced at the top of the list, and secretly remembered some important information in her mind.

She had already passed many county towns along the way, and had some knowledge about Qingcheng's things and knew a little.

There are several people on this list who are famous wealthy businessmen in Qingcheng, from all walks of life. Why do their businessmen use Du Hua to give Shangguan Qian this money?

Su Muwan doesn't know whether she was maliciously blackmailed or offered to her own initiative. She just wrote down her name as much as possible and went back so that Mo Yan and Mo Yu could investigate it.

When Su Muwan remembered it almost, she carefully closed the paper and gave it to Du Hua, and nodded in admiration.

"The meticulousness of this list really makes Bei Zhi admire him. After he goes back, he will inevitably report all the achievements of the adults to the eldest prince."

Du Hua naturally would not refuse such kindness, and smiled happily on his face.

"Then there will be a special envoy, and as for those silver officials, they will be sent to the carriage outside in a while."

After finishing his business, Du Hua had some pleasing thoughts in his heart and asked with a smile to Su Muwan.

"Envoy, why not stay in the mansion for a meal at noon today!"

After hearing this, Su Muwan looked a little hesitant.

“…This is a bit inconvenient…”

Du Hua pretended to be a little angry, stared at Su Muwan and persuaded him.

"Does the special envoy not give me face? You come here all the way, so you won't leave as soon as you come. At least let me do the best of this landlord's friendship!"

Su Muwan didn't want to stay here for too long to avoid any mistakes. After all, she was just a fake envoy and didn't know much about Shangguan Qian. At that time, what would happen at the dinner table would inevitably go wrong.

Since today's purpose has been completed, I should go back quickly, so Su Muwan pretended to be a pity and looked at Du Hua.

"The lord understands that he has other tasks left by the eldest prince, which is really undespairable."

Then she paused and said, "I'd better wait for this meal to be transferred to the capital before eating. But next time I will treat it as a humble position to welcome the adults. What do you think?"

When Du Hua heard Su Muwan say that there were other things, he thought there were some secret tasks he didn't know. He also knew that he couldn't inquire about these things casually, so he could only nod.

"Okay, then the officials will definitely get drunk with the special envoy next time!"

Su Muwan patted her palms, stood up, and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, OK! Let's just get drunk and don't return!"

Du Hua sent his subordinates to the backyard to call An and Xiao Liu over. After this time, the two seemed to have become very familiar.

When An knew that Su Muwan and her group were leaving in a while, she said to Du Hua.

"Master, why did I just talk to Liu'er girl for a while and they were leaving? Why didn't you leave them for a meal?"

After hearing this, Su Muwan looked at An apologetically and made an apologetic move in her hand.

"Mrs. Sister-in-law, don't blame Lord Du, because there are other things about Beizhi, so it's inconvenient to stay for too long. If Sister-in-law thinks that it's very good to have a conversation with Liu'er, after you arrive in the capital in the future, I will ask her to go to the mansion to talk to you more."

Xiao Liu also held An's hand and opened his mouth softly, with a feeling of reluctance.

"Sister An, when you arrive in the capital, you must remember to find me. We still have a lot of things to say!"

An naturally agreed immediately.

After several attempts to keep him, An finally sent Su Muwan and his group away with Du Hua.

But when the shadow of the carriage disappeared at the end of the street, she grabbed Du Hua's arm and complained in anger.

"Husband, you don't know. My sister and I were having fun watching flowers and tea in the backyard just now. But the old woman came out from nowhere, scolded me, and even took the stone to throw it away!"

Hearing her say this, Du Hua quickly pulled her in front of him, looked at her all over, and looked at her face very worried.

"Where did the lady be smashed? Is it important? Do I want me to invite a doctor to come to the house to take a look?"

Seeing that he was so worried about him, An felt a little proud and felt that Du Hua really loved him, so he spoke slowly.

"I'm fine. If Liu'er hadn't blocked me for a while, this face would have really been disgusted by his husband."

Du Hua touched her face with his hand, and his thumb was still rubbing the skin on his face. He smiled slightly and spoke gently.

"I feel sorry for my wife, but I don't have time to say anything, so why would I hate her? Don't worry, after we go to the capital together, I won't take her with me and leave her here to fend for herself!"

After saying that, he reached out and brought An into his arms. The gentleness on his face disappeared instantly, and his eyes were filled with something that no one could see.

On the carriage.

Seeing that the carriage had just left the prefect's mansion, Xiao Liu couldn't wait to talk about what he had seen in the mansion just now.

"Princess, Du and I went to the backyard just now. When we were inquiring about the matter in the mansion, we saw a very haggard-looking woman coming over, and she kept cursing about adulterers and mistresses. She seemed to be very resentful to An and Du Hua."

It turned out that today Su Muwan took Xiao Liu to ask her to enter the prefect's inner palace to inquire about some situations.

According to Su Muwan's wishes, Xiao Liu followed An to the garden of the inner palace.

It was cold late autumn, and only a pot of chrysanthemums were left in the garden, and the scenery was very good.

An sent someone to bring hot tea and a few plates of snacks, and sat in the pavilion and talked about gossip.

"I wonder how long has my sister been with the special envoy? Where is the home? Why does she sound like a person from the capital with accent?"

Xiao Liu smiled, took it out in an orderly manner and said something he had prepared when he took it out. He pretended to be sad on his face, and he responded to An's words.

"Sister An is right. I am indeed from the middle of the capital. I just went out to Beijing with my father to do some business. Unexpectedly, my father suffered from a serious illness on the road and died directly. I was a weak woman, and I was in a different place. When I was at a loss, I met a special envoy. Seeing that I was lonely and helpless, he took me on the road and prepared to take me back to his mansion in the capital at the end, which was also considered a settlement."

Xiao Liu said, wiping the corners of her eyes with a veil, looking heartbroken.

Seeing that she was really sad, An also spoke up to comfort her.

"It's not right that I'm sorry for my sister. But my sister will naturally enjoy endless wealth and wealth after following the envoy in the future, so she won't have to suffer any more."

Xiao Liu nodded and whispered to her some interesting things she encountered along the way in Qingcheng.

Seeing that what she said was fresh and interesting, An joined the discussion with great enthusiasm. The two of them were talking and laughing, and soon their relationship became close.

At this time, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the garden, bustling, sweeping the two of them.

An quickly asked the maid around him to see what happened, but before the maid left the garden, someone ran in towards him.

The one who broke in was a woman with disheveled hair. It was Han Qiu. Xiao Liu had already put on a thin jacket, but she was only wearing a single dress. It made people feel a little chilling, and she was dirty and embarrassed.

As soon as he saw An, the woman started to scold her loudly.

"You bitch, you are so cruel that you are like a poisonous scorpion. You rob my husband and murder my child! Are you shameless!..."

When An heard that her beautiful face suddenly became distorted, looking a little ferocious, and shouted angrily to the people serving her.

"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and call this crazy woman out for me, which disturbs my distinguished guests. I'll just ask!"

Everyone quickly grabbed the woman, but she opened her mouth but was still cursing. The expression on her face seemed to have a deep hatred with An.

"An Qinru, can you still sleep after doing so many unreasonable things? Haven't you dreamed of my child coming to you? You and Du Hua, a dog-like man and adolescent woman, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!..."

Her expression was a little cunning. Xiao Liu saw that the goose bumps on An's hands were rising, her face turned a little pale, and she said stammeringly.

"You stupid woman, what are you talking nonsense? Your child is obviously drowned in the water. What's the matter with me? Quickly block her mouth for me, so that she can save her from talking nonsense!"
