The General is Pregnant: His Majesty Abstinence and Sexual Devotion Every Night

Chapter 137 Concubine

man?

Gu Junqing raised her left eyebrow. In fact, she had first guessed that it was a woman, but she didn't expect it to be a man.

"Did you hear what Mu You said to that man?"

Ji Rang continued to ask.

At this time, Xiangxiang shook her head, indicating that she was too far away and did not hear what the two were talking about.

But: "Before leaving, Mu You gave the man a small purse."

As soon as these words fell, Gu Junqing and Ji Rang raised their eyebrows at the same time, seeming to be interested in this matter, and then asked what Xiangxiang looked like. Xiangxiang had good eyesight since she was a child, so she described it truthfully.

After the two of them took note, they realized what was happening and asked Xiang Xiang, "Why were you there at that time?"

At this point, Xiang Xiang paused for a moment, then said with some relief: "It's just that seeing my sister die so miserably, and in such a sloppy way, as a younger sister, I just can't bear to watch it."

Xiangxiang's tone was a bit complicated when she said this. Gu Junqing and Ji Rang were too lazy to think about it any further. It was obvious that there were some differences between Mu You and Xiangxiang when he was alive. It was just that now that he was dead, Xiangxiang was eager to dig up Mu You's past and make a joke of it.

The two left Yihong Tower and went to Zhang's Mansion.

At this time, Mrs. Zhang had actually woken up a long time ago and was just lying on the couch.

According to the doctor, Mrs. Zhang fainted because she was overly stimulated and emotionally excited. Now she should rest and not worry about other things.

However, after knowing that Ji Rang had come here on the emperor's orders to investigate the matter, and that Gu Junqing was accompanying him, Madam Zhang could no longer stay in the room and sit idly by. After all, as the mistress of the entire Zhang Mansion, she should take care of Zhang Qing's funeral, so she went out of the room to greet the two of them.

When they arrived at the front yard of Zhang's mansion, Gu Junqing and Ji Rang were already waiting on chairs. Seeing Mrs. Zhang, who looked haggard and exhausted, they bowed and greeted her before getting down to business.

"Mrs. Zhang, do you still remember the second daughter Chu You from the Chu family?"

"Chuyou"

Hearing this question, Madam Zhang felt a little strange, as if she didn't expect that she was originally talking about Zhang Qing, but suddenly it was about another person. She was confused, but she repeated the name subconsciously. After seeing Ji Rang ask this question, Gu Junqing seemed nonchalant, but her eyes were always on Madam Zhang. Naturally, she didn't miss the change in Madam Zhang's eyes from hesitation to surprise. Gu Junqing's eyebrows moved slightly, but she still didn't plan to speak.

She saw it, and Ji Rang, who had been staring at Mrs. Zhang, naturally saw it as well.

So Ji Rang quickly asked:

"Looking at Madam Zhang's appearance, I think she must have known him. Since Madam Zhang knows him, then Lord Zhang must have also seen Miss Chuyou."

At this point, what else could Madam Zhang do? Although Ji Rang asked, his eyes showed that he knew her, so Madam Zhang had no choice but to admit it:

"Although we know each other, it was only a one-time encounter and we were not close friends. Back then, my master felt sorry for Miss Chuyou and took her in for one night. The next day, he gave Chuyou a bag of silver and advised her to leave the capital." After saying that, Mrs. Zhang picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. She seemed to have thought of something again and her eyes dimmed.

When the two heard Mrs. Zhang say this, they couldn't help but doubt the truth of her words. However, when they saw that Mrs. Zhang looked calm and there was nothing wrong after she said this, they reluctantly regained their composure and began to ask Mrs. Zhang what happened that night.

Mrs. Zhang shook her head, indicating that she had already gone to bed at that time and knew nothing else.

However, that night, Lord Zhang did not rest in Madam Zhang's room. It is said that he went to the courtyard of the concubine in the mansion.

So the two of them asked Mrs. Zhang to bring the concubine up.

Mrs. Zhang responded readily, and soon the concubine from that year was brought up.

In fact, in addition to Gu Junqing and Ji Rang, behind them were several people sent by the emperor and several people around Ji Rang. It looked like a group of people came to Zhang's Mansion. With more people, they naturally had more momentum. What's more, these people had cold and expressionless faces, and looked like they were here to take people's lives.

The concubine, who had never seen such a scene, was immediately frightened and stood there not knowing what to do. Then she knelt down and subconsciously said words like it was unfair and she knew nothing.

When Mrs. Zhang saw her concubine's behavior, she turned her eyes away with an expression that showed she couldn't stand it.

The concubine had done nothing. They just wanted to ask her some questions. But looking at her expression, it was obvious that she was feeling guilty. It was originally just a simple suspicion, but now the suspicion became even deeper.

Ji Rang, who was standing aside, looked gloomy and had no idea what he was thinking. Gu Junqing felt a headache when he saw that concubine was still kowtowing and crying out for injustice, so he had to speak before Ji Rang and asked:

"We haven't even started asking you yet and you're already saying you're wronged. Well, tell us where your injustice started. Tell us now and maybe we can help you clear it up."

Seeing that the concubine was shaking like a sieve but had no response to what he had just said, Gu Junqing thought, could it be that this concubine had seen something back then that made her so panicked and anxious to sever all ties with this place.

It was just that because her attitude was too excited, Madam Zhang thought that the concubine was extremely scared and was afraid of getting involved in a scandal. That was why Madam Zhang was even more disgusted with the concubine. Gu Junqing frowned slightly and couldn't help thinking in his heart.

But it doesn't prevent this person from acting like this on purpose to attract their attention.

Gu Junqing couldn't stop guessing in his heart. He was still not sure what the concubine in front of him knew, but he must continue to interrogate her. After all, apart from Madam Zhang who had asked, this person was the only one left.

But seeing that she still didn't intend to say anything, Gu Junqing opened his mouth and was thinking about saying something when Ji Rang, who was sitting next to him, stood up and walked to the concubine's position, and seemed to say something again.

Gu Junqing had practiced martial arts and had strong internal strength. He had sharp ears and eyes, so he could naturally hear what Ji Rang said just now. The other people on the side were just ordinary people. They didn't hear what Ji Rang said at all. They just saw him approaching the concubine with a look of surprise and doubt in their eyes.

Madam Zhang was also like that, but she quickly came to her senses. Seeing Gu Junqing's understanding look, she couldn't help but turn around and ask her:

"Looking at the general's expression, I think he must know what Lord Ji is talking about. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell this lady?"

In fact, it was not something that could not be said. Seeing that Mrs. Zhang looked hesitant, Gu Junqing was afraid that she might have thought of something wrong. After all, Ji Rang's action just now was almost close to the concubine's ear, which seemed quite ambiguous from a distance.
