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

The constable's expression changed.

The adults told us not to make a fuss and to just bring Jiang Changtian to the yamen. What is this old man babbling about?

"No way, no way, I actually guessed right!" Old Xu shouted at the top of his lungs.

Old Xu had lived to such an old age and seen countless people; he saw through the yamen runner's shrewdness at a glance.

"It is Your Excellency who has something to ask the chief judge. Please come with us." The constable looked at Jiang Changtian.

Jiang Changtian frowned. "You can ask me anything here. If you're here for Miss Meng, I've never met her. I'm a person with mobility issues, and I don't have the ability to kidnap someone from the manor."

The constable sneered, "That's not necessarily true."

Lin Shuyun finished the last wonton in her bowl, and drank all the soup before putting down her chopsticks and getting up.

“My husband is a scholar, not a womanizer. Why would he kidnap Miss Meng? Doesn’t he have a wife? Am I that ugly that he would risk his life to do something so detrimental to himself? Isn’t he out of his mind?”

The yamen runner was momentarily stunned by the question.

Those who gathered to watch the spectacle whispered among themselves, "Yeah, he's got a wife, why would he do something that harms others and doesn't benefit himself?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Changtian couldn't help but smile, but he suppressed it and put on a humiliated expression.

The constable suddenly felt like he was being roasted over a fire, and forced himself to speak, "Seeing Jiang Changtian... is our lord's will."

"Since you gentlemen wish to see my husband, you should have sent someone in charge to invite him. Sending a yamen runner directly makes people think he's committed some crime and is about to be thrown in jail. Haven't you heard of the saying 'three men make a tiger'? A scholar's reputation is very important! Don't you think so?"

Lin Shuyun's words were reasonable, and the surrounding people agreed with them.

The constables couldn't do anything to Jiang Changtian in the street, so they had to go back and ask their superiors for instructions.

Just as Madam Li finished eating the wontons and was about to ask what was going on with Miss Meng, Lin Shuyun stood up and said, "Mother, you all take your time eating. After you're done, go for a stroll with the old man. I'm going to the front to buy something."

"Little sister, what are you going to buy? We can go together later!"

Feeling embarrassed to have his sister pay, Lin Hongzhi tried to make up for it elsewhere.

Lin Shuyun turned around and said, "I'm buying some fabric to make underwear. It's inconvenient for you to come along."

Lin Hongzhi was a little embarrassed when Madam Li stepped on his foot to tell him to stop talking.

Not long after Lin Shuyun left, Jiang Changtian paid for the wontons and said, "Godfather, Aunt, school starts the day after tomorrow. I'm going to buy a book. Could you please show my father-in-law and mother-in-law around?"

"Brother-in-law, can I come with you?" Lin Hongwen also wanted to visit the bookstore.

Although he couldn't afford to buy them, some books could be rented.

Jiang Changtian patted Lin Hongwen on the shoulder and said, "I'll bring you here again tomorrow. You study hard every day, and you finally got out today, so relax and enjoy yourself. Studying should be a balance between work and rest."

Upon hearing this, Lin Hongwen scratched his head and stopped following.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Lin Shuyun went to the same guesthouse as yesterday to inquire about Meng Yingying's whereabouts.

As a result, they ran into Jiang Changtian at the entrance of the inn.

"Yunyun, didn't you go to buy fabric? What are you doing here?"

Lin Shuyun chuckled awkwardly, "Would you believe me if I said I just happened to be passing by?"

Jiang Changtian: ...

Seeing that she had met both of them, Lin Shuyun decided to stop pretending.

"Forget it, we're like family, I won't hide it from you anymore. That woman is too annoying, she's always causing trouble. I don't like her, so I'm here to teach her a lesson."

After all, things almost escalated last night. This man is now her possession. She hasn't even had a chance to enjoy him yet, and someone else is already eyeing him and spreading rumors that she's pregnant.

She was unhappy.

"You came here for this too, right? How did you know she was here?" Lin Shuyun asked Jiang Changtian.

Holding a cane, looking like a frail scholar, one might easily mistake him for a cripple.

Who knew he was so alluring in private, with an eight-pack?

"Have you forgotten my special status?" Jiang Changtian pursed his lips; he had learned about it from the stray cat.

Now, almost all the stray cats in Wuyun County are eating meat here.

Looking at Lin Shuyun, Jiang Changtian felt a warmth in his heart.

She was always so good to him.

Yesterday was still kind to him, allowing him to find his salvation during the darkest time of his life.

"I almost forgot." Lin Shuyun grunted. "If you trust me, leave this to me. You're a scholar, after all; you shouldn't be weak and helpless."

The main problem is that she's itching to punch someone.

Don't ask, the answer is just that I'm feeling down because my period is coming soon.

Jiang Changtian initially wanted to refuse, but looking into her eyes, he inexplicably didn't. "Yunyun, I'll wait for you here."

Lin Shuyun went up to the second floor. The shopkeeper was dozing in front of the counter and acted as if he didn't see her.

Pushing open the door, I saw Meng Yingying fast asleep in the room.

Just as Lin Shuyun was about to go over, a long whip suddenly shot straight at her face.

"grass!"

Lin Shuyun instinctively exclaimed "National Treasure!" and quickly dodged away.

"who are you?"

The golden snake emerged from behind the bed curtains, staring coldly at Lin Shuyun, a long whip in its hand.

Lin Shuyun saw that the man who came out was strange-looking and not very tall.

It seems that Meng Yingying was kidnapped by this person.

"I should be asking you that. Who are you to her?"

Lin Shuyun twirled a strand of her long hair with her finger and deliberately asked, "Could it be that you're her lover?"

The golden snake narrowed its eyes and cracked its whip.

Lin Shuyun dodged and engaged in close combat, but accidentally bumped into the front of the golden snake.

The soft touch startled Lin Shuyun for a moment. She quickly pulled open Jin She's clothes and said with a smile, "Oh dear, it's a woman, not a lover. I'm sorry for misunderstanding you."

"Go to hell!"

Jin She's face turned bright red, and the long whip in her hand instantly lashed out at Lin Shuyun like lightning.

Lin Shuyun dodged with her agile movements, jumped onto the table, and took the opportunity to stab a wooden splinter into the golden snake's acupoint.

The whip in Jin She's hand fell to the ground instantly, and her body went limp.

Her weakness was close combat, and Lin Shuyun immediately grasped this weakness. The golden snake didn't last three moves against her.

"Beautiful lady, I have no grudge against you, it's too much for you to go so far as to kill me. But I'm too lazy to bother, so I'll just leave you alone!"

As Lin Shuyun spoke, she picked up the golden snake whip from the ground and walked towards Meng Yingying's bedside.

With such a commotion, he's still not awake? Has he been drugged?

Seeing Lin Shuyun raise her whip, Jin She hurriedly stopped her, "You can't kill her! She's carrying my master's child!"

Lin Shuyun looked up in surprise, "Your master is from the Guo family?"

The Guo family even sent someone to protect Meng Yingying closely?
