The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

What a coincidence! Jiang Bu had just finished talking to Jiang Li about Shi Liu and was about to go to the store, but when he walked to the front yard, he saw a shocking scene - Shi Liu was actually talking to a gardener, and the two seemed very familiar. However, Shi Liu had just come to the mansion yesterday!

Jiang Bu couldn't help but feel suspicious and decided to find out what was going on. So he stepped forward and called out to her, "Shi Liu, why are you here? Li Er has already returned to Xiang Ya Garden!"

Hearing the voice, Shi Liu turned around and greeted Jiang Bu with a bright smile on her face: "Third Young Master, are you going out?"

"Hmm." Jiang Bu nodded slightly but his eyes were always on the gardener next to him. He then asked, "Who is this person? Why have I never seen him before? Are you familiar with him?" There was a hint of doubt in his words.

Shi Liu was stunned at first, then quickly explained: "Third Master, you misunderstood. This is the new gardener in the mansion. His name is Nineteen. He has just arrived, so you haven't met him yet~"

After that, the gardener named Nineteen also bowed and said respectfully, "Hello, Third Young Master. I have just arrived at your house not long ago. Please take care of me."

"Shi Jiu? Are you and Shi Liu a family? Do you both have the surname Shi?" Hearing this name, Jiang Bu couldn't help but feel curious. He had never thought that the gardener would have the same surname as Shi Liu.

Seeing Jiang Bu's puzzled look, Shi Jiu quickly shook his head and explained, "Third Young Master, you misunderstood. My last name is not Shi, but Nineteen." He gestured in the air with his fingers and continued, "It's the Nineteen in nine out of ten."

"Yes, yes, Third Young Master, please don't misunderstand me! I'm really not familiar with him at all. It was Sister Xia He who asked me to come here to cut a few flowers, and I just happened to meet Nineteen. Isn't that right, Nineteen?" Shi Liu said, turning around and nodding vigorously at Nineteen. And Nineteen, who was standing aside, seemed to immediately understand the implication of Shi Liu's words.

"That's right, Third Young Master, Miss Pomegranate is indeed here to cut flowers. If you don't believe me, just look, these are all what Miss Pomegranate wanted." Nineteen quickly pointed at the basket full of flowers in Shi Pomegranate's hand and said.

"Then what's your last name?" Jiang Bu didn't look at the flowers in the pomegranate basket, but stared straight at the person in front of him and continued to ask.

Being looked at like this, Nineteen suddenly became a little nervous and stammered back, "Ah? Oh... My last name is Mu, Mu Nineteen."

Jiang Bu seemed very interested in this answer and asked, "Mu? The same Mu as the current emperor?"

Hearing this, Nineteen's heart skipped a beat, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He quickly waved his hands and explained, "Ah, no, no. I'm Mu." He was afraid that if he said something wrong, he would be killed. After all, in ancient times, having the same surname as the emperor was not a trivial matter. If he was not careful, he would be charged with offending the majesty of heaven! The word "Mu" had already scared Nineteen into a cold sweat. If he asked further, he didn't know what would happen.

"Really?" Jiang Bu frowned, a hint of doubt in his eyes. He stared at the other person closely, as if trying to find some clues from his expression. However, the person in front of him seemed very calm, which made Jiang Bu more confused.

"Nineteen? Pomegranate?" He pondered secretly. He always felt that this matter was not simple. There must be some connection between them. But what exactly was it? He pondered hard, and various possibilities kept flashing through his mind, but he could not piece together a complete answer.

If Jiang Li was here, she would definitely know that this person named Nineteen was definitely not just an ordinary gardener. You know, the woman named Pomegranate who used to follow her was actually originally called Sixteen!

"Well... um, Third Young Master, I'll go back first. Sister Xia He is still waiting for me to come over and help with flower arrangement!" Shi Liu felt a little uneasy. She didn't even dare to stay for a moment longer. She hurriedly picked up the basket full of flowers and left in a hurry!

After witnessing all this, Nineteen turned around as usual and continued to work, as if the scene he just saw had no effect on him. However, at this moment, Jiang Bu felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.

He frowned tightly, his eyes revealing deep doubts and worries. This strange feeling made him unable to calm down, and the scene just now and various strange events that had happened recently kept appearing in his mind. After careful consideration, Jiang Bu felt that he could not sit idly by and must find out what happened.

With a lot of questions in his mind, Jiang Bu decided to investigate further to uncover the truth behind this mystery...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, reminding him of a person - Mu Jiuchen! This name seemed to carry a mysterious and powerful aura, which made people feel awe.

Could it be that all these things were done by Mu Jiuchen's men? He pondered secretly, and a feeling of doubt and uneasiness surged in his heart. Mu Jiuchen was a man who had always been known for his ruthless means and deep scheming. His sphere of influence was spread all over the place, and he seemed to be omnipotent.

"He is really omnipresent!" he muttered to himself, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes.
