"How did you do it?" Wen Xiangzhu asked curiously.

Last night, there were people inside and outside the dungeon. How could she escape and even drug the bridal chamber?

"you guess?"

The woman laughed sarcastically, and when she felt less dizzy, she turned around and sat down, crossing her legs and glancing at Wen Xiangzhu, as if waiting for him to speak.

The veins on Wen Xiangzhu's forehead bulged and throbbed.

"Zhou Mei! Don't challenge my patience!"

The woman named Zhou Mei didn't care at all. She rolled her eyes at him and lowered her head to draw circles on the ground.

"If you don't want to guess, then why should I tell you?"

Wen Xiangzhu looked at her, his patience completely exhausted, then he turned around and walked out of the dungeon to find Zhao Ji.

"Go."

Zhao Ji clasped his hands together and saluted, then led a group of people into the dungeon.

He secretly thought in his heart that Zhou Mei was ignorant and had to wait for the young master to get angry and beat her up before she would behave herself.

Zhou Mei in the dungeon saw Zhao Ji coming and raised her voice to challenge him, "Hey, someone else is here. Go ahead, tell me what you want to ask. Maybe I'll answer you for your sake."

Faced with her provocation, Zhao Ji remained silent and just pressed his hand towards his men.

The subordinate understood and stepped forward to open the door of the cell. He went in and covered Zhou Mei's mouth first, then brought her out.

"Do it, don't let anyone die, wait until she confesses and then come back to me."

"Yes!"

The men took Zhou Mei away, but there was no fear or terror in her eyes.

On the other side, Shen Jiayu and Nusa Zhu, who had packed up, were sitting in the yard.

Every day that follows will be a test of her acting skills, so she has to practice hard, for she is really afraid that she will not be able to keep up with Wen Xiangzhu's role.

Li Xin'er was called back, and nominally was still a maid serving Wen Xiangzhu. She followed Wen Xiangzhu to the yard.

Wen Xiangzhu has always presented himself as a gentle and kind gentleman in front of others. With the rosary around, he naturally has to pretend.

Now all the people in the courtyard were those he had carefully called back from all over. In other words, in the entire courtyard, only Nuanzhu was not his.

These scenes were performed for Nianzhu.

"Let's go have breakfast together." Wen Xiangzhu said with a gentle smile.

Shen Jiayu nodded shyly, stood up and walked side by side with Wen Xiangzhu to have breakfast.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked the kitchen to make some." Wen Xiangzhu led her to sit down and introduced the dazzling array of breakfasts on the table. "I remember you like this."

Wen Xiangzhu took a portion of fried dough and placed it in front of her, expecting her to eat it.

Shen Jiayu raised her eyebrows slightly. This was indeed what she liked to eat.

But it’s probably not that Wen Xiangzhu remembered her preferences, but that he had been sending people to monitor her, so he found out that she liked to eat these.

Of course, she would not reject Wen Xiangzhu's kindness, so she picked up the fried dough crisps and started eating them in small bites.

"It's delicious, you should eat it quickly too." Shen Jiayu really didn't know what nonsense he was talking about.

I just know that today’s fried dough sticks aren’t as fragrant.

I suddenly thought of what happened last night, and I still feel embarrassed until now.

Who gave you the aphrodisiac?

Hearing what she said, Wen Xiangzhu didn't bother to be polite with her and ate slowly.

After breakfast, Wen Xiangzhu went to the Third Prince’s Mansion.

Nianzhu, who saw the whole process, was full of envy and couldn't help but sigh: "The master is really good to his wife. When I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I heard about a story about the master and..."

Suddenly, Rosary realized that she shouldn't say the second half of the sentence and immediately shut her mouth.

The abrupt end of the words aroused Shen Jiayu's interest. She knew in her heart that it was most likely about Wen Xiangzhu and Song Qinghong.

During that time, Song Qinghong realized her identity, and she laid her cards on the table. After thinking it through, she no longer cared about what was being said outside.

Since you have nothing to do anyway, you might as well listen to how outrageous this rumor is.

"Him and his sister?" Shen Jiayu smiled.

Nianzhu looked as if to ask how did you know that, but then she felt that she had been exposed, so she suppressed her expression and said seriously, "It's nothing, madam, you heard it wrong."

Shen Jiayu patted her hands and said, "Oh, what's the big deal? Tell me about it. I used to be a maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Maybe I have heard it before."

Nianzhu said awkwardly, "It's nothing, actually. I just heard from a small talk that the master had expressed his feelings to the eldest lady but was rejected. Today, I saw that the master and his wife were very affectionate. I think those rumors are just gossips by the old women. They are not true."

Shen Jiayu was shocked, but that’s not the case.

Let the rosary hear it for real.

"This is true, but I love him, and the emperor happened to grant me the marriage, so I got married. It's my good fortune."

Things have come to this point, she really wants to marry Wen Xiangzhu, there is nothing wrong with that.

The smile in the corners of Nianzhu's eyes became more and more intense. She was optimistic, "It's just right, Madam got what she wanted, and you are such a good person. After getting along with you for a long time, the head of the family will also like you!"

Shen Jiayu nodded, "I hope so."

If Wen Xiangzhu also likes her in the end, then her subsequent plans will go much more smoothly.

……

Return home three days later.

Song Qinghong got up early and waited at the door. Everyone told her to wait in the hall, but she refused to listen and only wanted to see Shen Jiayu as soon as possible.

Song Yuanbai, who dotes on his sister, naturally couldn't bear to see his sister standing alone at the door waiting, so the two of them waited together.

While Song Qinghong was waiting anxiously, a simple carriage slowly drove over and she saw the rosary that came with it at a glance.

"Brother, Jiayu is back." Song Qinghong softly reminded the listless Song Yuanbai.

Song Yuanbai straightened up and said, "I understand."

I don’t know why Qing’er likes Shen Jiayu so much, and what’s so good about her.

The carriage stopped steadily in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Luqi immediately ordered people to set off firecrackers. A burst of crackling sounds of firecrackers rang out, and they happily welcomed Shen Jiayu home.

There was a peaceful atmosphere in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone took Shen Jiayu to heart, as if she was the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After the reunion dinner, Song Qinghong hadn't seen her for three days and had a lot to say to her, so she pulled Shen Jiayu away early.

Wen Xiangzhu, who had lost his wife, was naturally left behind and chatted with his father-in-law and brother-in-law.

Song Qinghong took her back to her room, and the two held hands and talked privately.

"Is he nice to you?" Song Qinghong asked softly.

She was always worried that Shen Jiayu would not live a good life. Even if there was an imperial decree, if she married her master, her life would definitely not be like that of an ordinary couple.

Shen Jiayu raised a smile and said, "Don't worry, he treats me very well. I haven't made any mistakes or caused any trouble. He won't do anything to me."

"That's good." Song Qinghong held her hand and refused to let go, and the two chatted in the room.
