First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 187 Looking for someone to watch over me

After hearing what Zhao Xiuwan said, Li Yuzhu felt a little relieved.

She took a deep breath and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Although it was in front of Zhao Xiuwan, it was always a bad idea to be too out of control. Su Jixiang didn't want to see her, so now he could only follow Zhao Xiuwan's path.

"If you can really help, I can give you these five thousand taels of silver as a gift." Li Yuzhu said.

She cast out a big bait.

Because she had thought about it.

If Lin Xuwen really got into trouble, she would be alone and helpless in Mangcheng. If Lin Xuwen was really sentenced to have his property confiscated, she would not be able to escape. It would be better to bribe Zhao Xiuwan with a large sum of money. No matter what, she would meet Lin Xuwen first to see if he had anything to say.

It would be best if there was room for maneuver.

If not, you can only leave it to fate. If your family is convicted, then it is another matter whether you can get the five thousand taels of silver back.

It would be better to use the five thousand taels of silver as bait and ask Zhao Xiuwan to help with the work.

Zhao Xiuwan was indeed tricked, and she immediately became excited when she heard this.

She was short of money now. What could Qian Feng's salary do? Others didn't know what her family's financial situation was like, but she didn't know it either. She couldn't count on her parents' family anymore. The last time she wrote back, her father and brother didn't even mention the word "dowry". It was obvious that they had already given her up and only asked her to obey the imperial decree in the north and get married.

So now she can only rely on herself.

Zhao Xiuwan urgently needs the five thousand taels of silver.

"Isn't it just to help find out about your Lin Xuwen? I know about it." Zhao Xiuwan gave Li Yuzhu a reassuring look, "Leave it to me." Qian Feng's kindness to her was from the bottom of his heart, and as long as she asked, there was no reason for Qian Feng not to tell her.

"I want to see him!" Li Yuzhu said firmly, "I want to see him in person, alone!"

This may be a bit difficult!

Zhao Xiuwan is not completely a fool. The reason why Li Yuzhu found her must be that she was desperate.

She must have tried her luck in prison, but it was just bad luck.

"Okay, okay. I'll go back and talk to our old man Qian." Zhao Xiuwan said as she comforted Li Yuzhu, "Anyway, I'll try to let you meet."

"That's good." Li Yuzhu said, "If our family can turn danger into fortune this time, these five thousand taels will not only be my gift to you, but also a generous reward."

The corners of Zhao Xiuwan's mouth twitched slightly, "Okay! I'll agree to your request." She rolled her eyes, and then said to Li Yuzhu: "You also know that I took your money to open a shop. Now the shop has been rented and the money has been spent. So if I need money to help you, you have to pay for it!"

"That's natural." Li Yuzhu nodded. She didn't expect anything from Zhao Xiuwan.

"If you want those soldiers to be flexible, you have to ask for money for tea," Zhao Xiuwan said, giving Li Yuzhu a suggestive look.

"Of course." Li Yuzhu nodded.

She took out a purse with fifty taels of silver and placed it on the table. "Take it first. We'll talk about it later if it's not enough."

Zhao Xiuwan waved her hand and said, "This is too little!"

"Then how much do you want?" Li Yuzhu asked.

"It will take at least one hundred taels. Otherwise, who will help you?" Zhao Xiuwan said.

Li Yuzhu's eyes widened immediately, "You are not blackmailing me!"

"Look at you. Can I do such a thing?" Zhao Xiuwan sneered disdainfully, "But do you really think that fifty taels is enough? To send away a beggar?"

"I'll give you another fifty taels." Li Yuzhu took out another fifty tael silver note and handed it to Zhao Xiuwan. "That's all I have. I don't have any more. If you're trying to trick me, you'll have to return my five thousand taels of silver!"

"Your Lin Xuwen is quite capable. He actually has so much money at home!" Zhao Xiuwan thought about it and began to think about it. She thought that the five thousand taels of silver were given to Li Yuzhu by Lin Xuwen.

Now that Lin Xuwen has been arrested, these five thousand taels must be stolen money!

How come she was controlled by Li Yuzhu just now? It should be the other way around.

"Don't even think about that." Li Yuzhu sneered, "This five thousand taels is the money I saved. It has nothing to do with Lin Xuwen. It's my dowry! I brought it out from the palace. Just because you don't have it doesn't mean others don't have it either. The accusation of stolen money can't be put on me. I didn't use a penny of the Lin family's money!"

Zhao Xiuwan was stunned.

Li Yuzhu saw through her thoughts in an instant, which was a bit embarrassing.

However, Li Yuzhu's words also touched the pain in her heart.

At first, she was not the most glorious one in the palace, but at least she was considered a half-favored concubine. The family's money also went into her hands continuously, and they only hoped that she could gain a foothold in the palace and bring real glory and benefits to the family. However, she was not able to take so much money out, and in the end, no one knew who benefited from it.

It is impossible for her parents to give her money now.

The supply was cut off, so she thought about making money on her own.

Zhao Xiuwan put the purse and banknotes into her arms, stood up and said coldly, "Wait! I will let the maid inform you when there is news."

Zhao Xiuwan left the teahouse angrily.

As soon as Zhao Xiuwan left, Su Jixiang got the news.

After Su Jixiang rejected Li Yuzhu, he knew that Li Yuzhu would definitely find another way.

Among those who left the palace, only Zhao Xiuwan had a say.

Zhao Xiuwan married Qian Feng again.

So Li Yuzhu will definitely find Zhao Xiuwan in the end.

Su Jixiang originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but then he thought something was wrong.

Qian Feng is someone Wei Ling trusts, but Zhao Xiuwan is a troublemaker.

Now Wei Ling wanted to thoroughly investigate the rebels in the army and the accounts of the army in the three years when he was away. As Lin Xuwen was the person who stayed in Mangcheng at that time and was in charge of the logistics of the Mangcheng garrison, he was naturally very important.

If Qian Feng was implicated by his affairs, or if Qian Feng did something wrong under the instigation of Zhao Xiuwan, this would be the biggest loss for Wei Ling.

After all, Qian Feng has Wei Ling's trust.

So she became more cautious and had someone keep an eye on Zhao Xiuwan.

Because she has rejected Li Yuzhu several times, Li Yuzhu will definitely look for Zhao Xiuwan soon.

As expected, she caught his eye. It was like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Su Jixiang asked Wei Zhong to convey this matter to Wei Ling, who was busy and exhausted in the military camp.

Let him be careful.
