Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

Jiang Changtian seemed very familiar with this road, and jumped into a courtyard with ease.

There wasn't a single tree in the yard, so Lin Shuyun couldn't hide in a tree and could only peek through the crack in the door.

Jiang Changtian is meeting Scarface tonight.

Scarface had just drifted off to sleep when he vaguely sensed someone sitting on the bed watching him. When he opened his eyes, there really was someone there.

Scarface would have screamed if he hadn't seen the dagger pressed against his chest.

Having some experience in the underworld, he feigned composure.

"Who?"

Scarface cautiously probed, actually thinking he would scream for help at the next second.

"Scream, you can scream louder, let's see if your scream is faster than my knife."

Jiang Changtian twirled the knife in his hand, seeing through Scarface's thoughts.

"Who exactly are you?" Scarface asked in terror.

He doesn't seem to have offended anyone recently!

There was also the case of someone smashing up a shop owned by a relative of a top scholar, who was just a poor, pedantic scholar. Could it be that people from the academy came knocking on their door?

Impossible. Those people from the academy pride themselves on being upright gentlemen. How could they possibly find their way here in the middle of the night with their faces covered by a cloth?

Jiang Changtian said coldly, "The person who wants your life, tell me the truth, and let me consider whether or not to let you go."

"Who gave you permission to cause trouble in the restaurant?"

“They’re from the Guo family,” Scarface said without hesitation.

Before he could finish speaking, his jaw was dislocated, and a rag from who-knows-where was stuffed into his mouth.

The next second, a flash of cold light appeared, and the dagger pierced his thigh.

Scarface groaned in pain, his eyes widened, his face contorted, and he couldn't make a sound.

"I'll give you one more chance. If you don't tell the truth again, the next time it will be your throat."

Jiang Changtian pulled out the dagger, slowly wiped away the blood, and then pushed the scarred chin back to its original state.

“I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you… it’s Prefect Xu.”

Scarface pressed his hand against the wound on his thigh, panting heavily, and named a person who surprised everyone.

"Prefect Xu? How did you get involved with him?"

Jiang Changtian suddenly remembered that Guo Zhong had a younger sister who was the favorite concubine of the prefect.

Scarface thought he didn't believe him, so he hurriedly said, "It's true. I saw it clearly when that person delivered the message. He went in from the backyard of Prefect Xu's mansion."

He accepted the job for fifty taels of silver, originally thinking it was just about causing trouble and smashing up shops, but he never expected to run into a brick wall.

Three of his brothers were killed, and he originally wanted to leave Wuyun County, but he was searched everywhere and had to hide. In the end, someone still came to his door.

Scarface had told him everything he knew. "Great hero, I've said everything I need to say. Can you let me go now?"

"can."

Jiang Changtian sat down on a chair to the side.

Scarface was overjoyed and hurriedly got up to run away, clutching the wound on his leg.

The next second, he clutched his throat and collapsed to the ground with a muffled thud, dark red blood quickly seeping into the soil beneath his neck.

"I said I'd let you go, but I didn't say I wouldn't kill you."

outside the house.

Lin Shuyun witnessed this scene; she had originally intended to kill Scarface herself.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Changtian was even faster than her.

Coal Ball clicked its tongue twice, "Your man's heart is pretty black!"

Jiang Changtian was cleaning his dagger when he heard the sound of coal balls, and his whole body stiffened.

What did Coal Ball say, you man?

So she came?

Jiang Changtian opened the door and saw Lin Shuyun standing in the courtyard, the moonlight casting a long, slender shadow of her.

"Yunyun?"

Like a child caught doing something wrong, Jiang Changtian lowered his head and cautiously approached Lin Shuyun.

Lin Shuyun originally wanted to run ahead, but she didn't expect that Jiang Changtian would come out when she was a step too late.

Looking up at the sky, he exclaimed, "Hey, what a coincidence, you're here too?"

Jiang Changtian: ...

Coal Ball gloated from the side, "You dog of a man, Shu Yun just saw you kill someone with a swift stroke of the knife, now Shu Yun doesn't want you anymore, hahaha!"

Jiang Changtian threw down the dagger and anxiously reached for Lin Shuyun's sleeve.

"Yunyun, listen to me. He is an utterly wicked person. He almost harmed our godfather. Don't be afraid of me, okay?"

Lin Shuyun looked at Jiang Changtian, "I'm very curious how you found Scar?"

She asked her mother for information, but all she knew was that Scarface hadn't left Wuyun County. She hadn't found out exactly where he was, but Jiang Changtian had found him so easily.

Jiang Changtian pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "It's a cat. I can understand cats. I bribed the stray cats in the neighborhood with meat, and they led me here."

Lin Shuyun suddenly shuddered, remembering something.

If Jiang Changtian can talk to cats, then he can talk to coal balls and understand what coal balls say.

Doesn't that mean she was actually exposed a long time ago?

grass.

"Coal Ball, come here." Lin Shuyun beckoned.

After picking up the coal briquette, Lin Shuyun suddenly paused for a moment, shook her head, and looked at Jiang Changtian with a puzzled expression.

"Husband, what are you doing here so late at night? Aren't you supposed to be reading in your study?"

"Huh, where am I? Wasn't I sleeping? How did I get here? Am I sleepwalking?"

Jiang Changtian: ...

Could you act any more exaggeratedly?

How should he respond?

Just then, a meow came from outside, the stray cat alerting them that someone was coming.

"Husband, let's go quickly! This place is dirty and smelly, it looks terrible!"

Lin Shuyun tugged at Jiang Changtian's sleeve, acting like a little bird clinging to him, and ran out the back door.

Neither of them spoke on the way back.

As they approached the courtyard gate, Jiang Changtian stopped and took Lin Shuyun's hand.

Gathering her courage, she spoke up, "Yunyun, I'm not a demon or monster, don't be afraid of me."

Lin Shuyun suddenly had a mischievous urge, "You're not a monster, I am. Are you scared?"

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a slender vine sprouted from it. In the moonlight, a small red flower bloomed on the vine.

Seeing Jiang Changtian's pupils dilate, Lin Shuyun casually raised her hand, and a large pear appeared out of thin air in her palm.

"Shuyun, Shuyun, give me some to eat, give me some to eat!" Coal Ball jumped up and down happily.

Lin Shuyun gave the pear to Meiqiu, and then with a flick of her wrist, a basket of pears appeared on the ground.

"Are you scared? If you are, then run. Since you're not bad-looking, I might spare your life."

After saying that, Lin Shuyun chuckled softly, her red lips curving upwards, making her look like a bewitching enchantress under the moonlight.

Jiang Changtian felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his chest, and everything in his eyes lost its color, leaving only her.

He slowly lowered his head. "I've heard that demons need to absorb yang energy, Yunyun. If you want to absorb it, I'm willing..."

A continuous stream of energy, centered on Jiang Changtian, poured directly into Lin Shuyun's body like a vortex.

Lin Shuyun suddenly felt a crisp cracking sound in his mind, and then his space suddenly expanded countless times.

The previously unclear surroundings suddenly became clear, the sun was shining brightly inside, and a mountain appeared, rich in resources, like a fairyland.

Lin Shuyun took a moment to casually toss the coal briquettes in.

Completely oblivious, Coal Ball was still clinging to the pear, gnawing away, "So delicious."
