The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

After the master gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, Xu Wen seemed to have found an outlet for his emotions. His chest rose and fell violently, but he soon regained his composure. It must be admitted that Xu Wen was quite capable of being the prefect of Yangzhou. You know, Yangzhou was the fief of the King of Qi. However, the King of Qi once told the late emperor that he was only temporarily living in Yangzhou and did not regard it as his fief. In other words, Yangzhou City was still under the jurisdiction of the court. It was not easy for Xu Wen to serve as the prefect of Yangzhou for ten years under such circumstances, which also showed that he did have certain means and abilities. It was a pity that the rude act of Xie Ci just now was so sudden that he was a little dazed for a moment.

"Lord Jiang, General Xie, I was really impulsive just now and I am sorry for making you two embarrassed. Please don't take it seriously!" Xu Wen's face was full of smiles. He bowed and apologized to the two of them.

Jiang Xing and Xie Ci looked at each other, secretly surprised. Xu Wen's expression changed so quickly, even faster than turning the pages of a book. They realized that this person might not be easy to deal with.

Jiang Xing sneered and said, "Master Xu, we are all working for the court, so we won't care."

Xie Ci also agreed: "Yes, Lord Xu, we don't want to have any misunderstandings with you."

Xu Wen nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, you two adults are absolutely right. I will pay attention in the future and not be so impulsive. I hope you two adults will forgive me for what happened today."

Although Xu Wen seemed very sincere on the surface, Jiang Xing and Xie Ci knew that he was definitely not a simple person. They had to be careful and cautious when dealing with him in the future.

Xu Wen smiled and gestured to Jiang Xing and the others to come in, then turned around and led them into the government office. Jiang Xing and Xie Ci looked at each other, their mouths slightly raised, and then followed in without hesitation. They came here today with a very clear purpose, which was to investigate the case in a high-profile manner, so as soon as they entered the government office, they got straight to the point and directly stated their purpose.

This sudden move surprised Xu Wen, but he was a man who had seen the world, so he quickly regained his composure. He quickly told the lawyer beside him, "Go get the account book!" The lawyer responded and hurried away.

Jiang Xing and Xie Ci looked at Xu Wen in surprise as he agreed without hesitation, thinking to himself: Seeing him hand over the account book so readily, there must be nothing unusual in it. However, Jiang Xing did not give up even the slightest clue easily.

Jiang Xing slowly stroked the pile of account books in front of him and said softly, "Master Xu, can you allow me to take this account book back and check it carefully? After all, it is difficult to check it in detail in such a hurry."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xu Wen's face, but he immediately regained his smiling look and responded, "Well... of course you can! I will arrange for my men to send it to your inn later." After that, he prepared to summon his lawyer to handle the matter.

However, Jiang Xing waved his hand to stop him, saying: "No need to trouble Lord Xu. Yuanchu..." He nodded slightly towards Yuanchu.

Yuanchu understood his master's intention as soon as he heard it, and quickly stepped forward and picked up the box full of account books. Then, Jiang Xing, Xie Ci and others left in a hurry. They came quickly and left in a hurry, which made Xu Wen worried. Fortunately, the prince informed him in advance, so he had already prepared and prepared the account books in time.

The two men who returned to the post station stared silently at the account book in the box and fell into long contemplation.

"Cousin, do you think Xu Wen is trustworthy? His behavior today has left me confused and puzzled." Xie Ci finally couldn't help but speak out his doubts.

"It's hard to say! Since he has been able to serve as the prefect of Yangzhou steadily for ten years, he must not be a kind person. After all, this is the fiefdom of that prince." Jiang Xing replied in a deep voice.

"The King of Qi??? The Prince of Qi is famous for being indifferent to fame and fortune. He never participates in court affairs." Xie Ci was full of admiration for the King of Qi.

Hearing Xie Ci praising King Qi so excitedly, Jiang Xing turned around and looked at him with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes, which made Xie Ci feel a little uncomfortable.

"Cousin, did I say something wrong?" Xie Ci scratched his hair, a hint of confusion and uneasiness in his eyes, and asked Jiang Xing cautiously.

Jiang Xing did not answer immediately, but sat down silently, then picked up the account book on the table and flipped through it attentively. Seeing this, Xie Ci was still puzzled, but he could only sit down helplessly and bite the bullet to try to read those densely packed account books.

However, after just a while, Xie Ci felt dizzy. The numbers and words in front of him seemed to be jumping and dancing, making it difficult for him to concentrate. Finally, he couldn't help but give up, and said to Jiang Xing with a wry smile: "Cousin, I have other things to deal with. These account books are really beyond my ability. Let my cousin handle it!"

Xie Ci muttered to himself, this is simply sending a civil official to the battlefield! How can a military general like me understand these complicated accounts? Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for me?

At this moment, Jiang Xing seemed to have expected it. He shouted, "Yuan Chu..." His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable majesty.

Yuan Chu came in and stood firmly in front of Jiang Xing, waiting for his instructions.

"Go to Liweilou and invite Manager Jin. Remember to find a suitable reason." Jiang Xing gave the instructions concisely and clearly, and at the same time closed the account book.

Hearing this arrangement, Xie Ci suddenly realized and couldn't help but give Jiang Xing a thumbs up, exclaiming: "Cousin, you are so awesome! Why didn't I think of it!" At this moment, his admiration for Jiang Xing was beyond words.
