Film and Television Variety Show: The Jade Girl's Love Affair

So Tang Yu has recently taken to staying at home studying musical scores and playing music.

She loved music back in the 21st century, enjoying playing the flute and piano, though her skills weren't great. Now, however, she's able to focus and dedicate herself to it.

Such days seem uneventful, but Tang Yu is a lazy bum, and staying at home in winter is his greatest joy.

However, this peaceful life was soon disrupted, as people who had previously been ignored began to disturb Tang Yu's life.

Since meeting Gongsun Yu that time, Tang Yu thought that her rejection was decisive enough and that the other party would not pester her.

However, no one knows what connections the other party used to get the letter to the Yuan residence and ask her to meet him, expressing his deep affection in the letter.

Will Tang Yu go out? No way, that would be asking for trouble.

So the other party secretly sent her letters one after another, each letter more affectionate than the last, five or six times in a month.

Tang Yu would burn the document immediately after reading it, without any reaction on her face or any hesitation.

But this kind of thing annoyed Tang Yu.

Something's not right. The Yuan family isn't a sieve that can't be opened. How could they have sent her a letter for so long without anyone noticing?

Tang Yu had a vague feeling that something was wrong with Gongsun Yu. He wasn't really deeply in love with her at all. He probably had deliberately seduced her back then. Now that he was acting like this, was he after her feelings?

Then offend the Yuan family of Jiaodong, are you courting death?

In this unsettling situation, Tang Yu finally received a threatening letter, which transformed from deep affection into a threat of hatred.

Of course, what the other party was holding was a letter that Tang Yu had written, which he personally wrote, inviting the other party to elope together.

This is indeed a useful thing.

Gongsun Yu used this letter to force her to go out and meet him.

"Xiao Qi, is there any medicine that can turn someone into an idiot?"

Tang Yu had already killed people in the apocalypse. He was terrified at the time, but he got used to it later.

She also didn't want to recall that memory; it always made her feel bad.

But this Gongsun Yu went too far. Something was definitely wrong with him. His repeated attempts to seduce her clearly had ulterior motives.

Killing is always inappropriate in this era, and the bodies are difficult to dispose of.

But becoming stupid is enough.

"It's available in the store, you can just buy it directly."

Hearing Xiao Qi's answer, Tang Yu's irritable mood improved somewhat.

She really wanted to live a peaceful life forever.

Since someone is sabotaging it, we have no choice but to stop them.

The next day, Tang Yu went to the address threatened in the envelope to meet the other party.

On the other hand, based on the information provided by the Crown Prince, Yuan Shen has now discovered the other party's identity.

So Yuan Shen played the long game, sending people to secretly follow this person and see who he had recruited.

That day, Gongsun Yu went out to the restaurant in the morning and soon secretly met with Tang Yu.

The two men were talking in the private room, and no one knew what they were talking about, but news of their meeting immediately reached Yuan Shen.

Yuan Shen was completely shocked. How did his young wife get involved with this rebel?

No, we absolutely cannot let the Crown Prince know about this. We must find a way to erase all traces of today's events.

Chapter 16: Starry Sky 16

"what do you want to do?"

Tang Yu sat in the private room in a bad mood. Anyone who was threatened like that would not be able to put on a good face.

"Yu Niang is truly heartless."

Gongsun Yu was still putting on a show of deep affection when Tang Yu laughed sarcastically.

"Don't do something that makes people laugh. Do you think I don't understand? Were you hired to deliberately meet me?"

You actually think you can still fool me with that fake affection?

After saying this, the smile on Gongsun Yu's face disappeared, and his gaze became serious.

“Yu Niang has become quite clever now. Well, we came here today for other reasons anyway.”

Yu Niang didn't want to believe those feelings, so I didn't press the matter further.

Now I only need Yu Niang to do one thing for me, and I will destroy the letter you wrote.

"whats the matter?"

As Tang Yu spoke, she poured herself a cup of tea and then poured one for the other person as well.

Then, she secretly sprinkled the prepared medicine into the other person's cup.

“It’s very simple. Doesn’t Yu Niang’s dowry include a cloth shop? Just sell that cloth shop to me, and I promise I won’t bother Yu Niang again in the future.”

The cloth shop was part of her dowry, provided by her family after her engagement.

It's been less than a year since I bought it. Is there anything special about it?

However, there's no need to refuse right now. After all, the purpose of coming here today isn't to figure out what the other party is up to. The fastest way is to eliminate the enemy at its source.

Who cares what kind of schemes or tricks they have?

So Tang Yu handed the other person a cup of hot tea, and after watching them drink it with a smile, she spoke.

"Tomorrow I will have my maid come out to make a deal with you and hand over the cloth shop to you, how about that?"

Gongsun Yu smiled with satisfaction instantly.

"Very good, Yu Niang is indeed straightforward."

After completing the transaction, Tang Yu left the restaurant without hesitation and immediately took a carriage home.

No matter what schemes or tricks Gongsun Yu may have, he will become a fool after tonight.

Could I possibly threaten her again? I'm afraid I won't even know what I'm supposed to do in the end.

Meanwhile, inside the Yuan family mansion.

Yuan Shen locked Cuizhu in a secret room for questioning.

“Cuizhu, now is not the time for you to hesitate. Who exactly is Gongsun Yu? What is his past relationship with the young lady?”

Now you must make things clear, because the imperial court is investigating this Gongsun Yu, who may be a rebel.

If you don't speak up, do you intend to drag the young lady into the rebellion? Explain yourself clearly so I can resolve this matter!

Yuan Shen was filled with anxiety. Although he had sent people to guard the area around the restaurant to ensure that his wife would not be in any trouble today.

But what worries him more now is what exactly is the connection between his wife and Gongsun Yu? This is no small matter.

Since the young wife didn't return, those who were closely attending to her must have known something about it.

Since the lady had taken Cuizhu with her on several outings in the past, Yuan Shen felt that Cuizhu must know something.

Cuizhu was usually very tight-lipped, after all, she was a close servant and could not easily reveal her master's secrets.

However, the amount of information Yuan Shen revealed this time was too much, and it even involved the rebels, which made Cui Zhu panic.

"Young master, this is not the young lady's fault. It's that person who has been pestering and harassing her..."

In a daze, Cuizhu didn't know how much she had been forced to say.

By the time she finished speaking, her back was covered in cold sweat.

Tang Yu returned home at noon and was surprised to find that Yuan Shen was already home.

"Why are you home so early today, my husband?"

Chapter 17: Starry Sky 17

"Things ended quickly today; it seems Madam was busy with something outside."

Yuan Shen's tone was normal, and his gaze remained considerate and gentle. Tang Yu didn't think much of it and went forward to sit opposite him.

"After staying at home for too long, I went out for a stroll and bought a few bracelets."

To cover up what happened today, Tang Yu did go to a jewelry shop and pick out a few bracelets.

Yuan Shen chuckled softly after hearing this. The clay stove beside him was now emitting the aroma of wine, and Yuan Shen picked up the stove and began pouring wine into his cup.

The porcelain-white wine cup was filled with sake, and Tang Yu assumed that Yuan Shen was in a good mood today and wanted to enjoy the snow while drinking.

After all, this spot offers a perfect view of the snow outside the window.

However, after pouring the wine, Yuan Shen picked up the glass and downed it in one gulp. Then he poured himself another full glass and downed that one as well.

Tang Yu immediately realized that he was drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Why was he drinking like this? Had something happened?

"Did my husband encounter some difficulties today? He seems to be in a bad mood."

"Yes, it's terrible."

Yuan Shen replied, then poured himself another glass of wine, about to drink it all in one gulp.

Tang Yu quickly reached out and grabbed the other person's wrist.

“Drinking alcohol like this is bad for your health. Husband, should we have the servants prepare some food first? It’s not good to drink on an empty stomach.”

And if I'm in a bad mood, I might play chess with my husband, or we might study some musical scores, or my husband might paint for me.

Tang Yu's voice was gentle and her tone was concerned, but Yuan Shen remained silent. He forcefully pulled his hand back and then drank the sake in his cup in one gulp.

At this point, Tang Yu stopped trying to persuade him.

When someone is in a bad mood, someone who is usually gentle and patient, it's best to stay quietly by their side when they really want to let loose.

So Yuan Shen poured himself glass after glass of wine, not knowing how much he drank.
