Chapter 18 Cracking the Ledger
The general's mansion was heavily guarded, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
"Bastard, bastard!"
"Go! Arrest me all those who don't know how to chew their tongues, and I'm going to ask them when it's their turn to talk nonsense from the young lady of the General's Mansion?"
The guard with his head down wanted to stop talking, his mouth was on someone else's mouth, how could he catch it, not to mention that the second lady was unconscious now, and there was everything to say outside, but the general was not wandering around the street, and he couldn't hear anything more ugly.
The housekeeper came out to play a round with great eyesight, "Master, in the eyes of the old slave, this rumor will stop after a while, if we send someone to arrest those who spread rumors back, I am afraid that it will have an impact on your career, after all, there are many people in the court who are staring at your every move." ”
General Tang frowned after hearing this, the butler's words hit the nail on the head, the hidden arrows in the court are difficult to defend, more fierce than the swords on the battlefield, and if you don't pay attention to what kind of tongue handle, his previous great achievements on the battlefield will turn into nothingness with the wind.
He did owe Tang Yining before, but if he wanted him to gamble on his future, he did retreat, thinking about his career, and the reputation of a concubine seemed to be less important than that.
In other words, Tang Yining is indeed not that important.
"Second Miss, are you awake?" General Tang changed his words.
"Master, the second miss hasn't woken up yet, but don't worry, general, the doctor said that the second miss is not worried about her life." The butler understood what the general meant, and said softly.
"That's good, that's good." General Tang muttered.
As long as his daughter lives, he may feel better in the future if he has the opportunity to make up for her, give her a sufficient dowry, or more pampering.
When Xie Tianrui heard Tang Yining's painful appearance, he felt a trace of guilt in his heart, he seemed to be a little too much just now.
His entourage pushed open the door lightly, and saw Xie Tianrui's face gloomy, rubbing his hands.
"What's the matter?" Xie Tianrui looked at the entourage's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and raised his eyebrows.
"Little county king, the slave doesn't know whether to talk about it or not." The entourage wants to speak and stops
"Say." Xie Tianrui took in everything just now and guessed that it must be related to Tang Yining.
"There are rumors out there that you ,...... said that you did not hesitate to hack the second lady of the General's Mansion for love. The entourage secretly glanced at Xie Tianrui and hurriedly bowed his head.
This is related to the reputation of the girl's family, especially the second lady of the General's Mansion, who is not the general's daughter, but it is also related to the reputation of the General's Mansion.
These Diao people are really windless and can't make waves, and they dare to make up anything, but he Xie Tianrui doesn't eat this, even if Tang Yining's reputation in the future is not so good, but with his understanding of this second lady, this matter will not have much impact on her.
"Got it, you can step down." Xie Tianrui pondered for a moment.
The attendant saluted and hurriedly withdrew.
Hu Qian decocted the medicine, didn't dare to delay for a second, and ran towards Tang Yining's house with small broken steps, and was stunned the moment she opened the door.
Xie Tianrui was standing at the head of the bed looking at Tang Yining
She looked at everything in front of her in amazement, could it be that the rumors outside were true?!
Looking at Xie Tianrui's posture, she cares so much about her own young lady, if she tells a lie, even she doesn't believe it.
Xie Tianrui saw Hu Qian coming in, glanced at it casually and turned his head away, as if he didn't see Hu Qian come in.
Hu Qian put down the medicine very interestingly, gave Xie Tianrui a salute and stepped back lightly.
Xie Tianrui looked at the steaming medicine, frowned, did he want him to feed Tang Yining the medicine himself?
Growing so big, it was others who served him, he had never served others, thinking of this, Xie Tianrui felt numb all over his body, and his head was swollen.
"Water! Water ......" Tang Yining muttered in a low voice, she felt that her throat and eyes were smoking, she felt that she had no strength at all, and she wanted to wake up, but her consciousness was very blurred.
Xie Tianrui rolled his eyes at Tang Yining, he really called him! He folded his arms and stood up, touched his nose, and snorted coldly.
"Thirsty ......" Tang Yining, who had not drunk water, continued to shout softly in a slightly weak voice.
Xie Tianrui was stunned, this voice seemed to be calling him to pour water for Tang Yining, looking at Tang Yining, whose face was pale and his lips were peeling, he gritted his teeth and poured a glass of water for Tang Yining, and sent it to Tang Yining's mouth very unskillfully.
But Tang Yining was in a coma, and he didn't have the ability to drink water by himself at all, and the little marquis frowned very anxiously.
"Why don't you drink it?"
Tang Yining only felt that the surroundings were very noisy, and he couldn't hear Xie Tianrui clearly at all, the little marquis angrily put the water on the table, couldn't sit still for a moment, walked around the room, and when he looked up, he found the medicine on the table, and there was a spoon in it.
Spoon? He had an idea, and maybe it could come in handy.
He quickly picked up the spoon and water, walked to Tang Yining's side, scooped some water for her with a spoon, and fed it to her mouth.
Tang Yining didn't know that Xie Tianrui was feeding her water because she was unconscious, and she still didn't open her mouth, Xie Tianrui couldn't help it, so she pinched Tang Yining's chin with one hand in a hurry, and forcibly fed her with the other.
The water seemed to be against Xie Tianrui, some of it flowed into Tang Yining's mouth, and some flowed out, Xie Tianrui didn't take care of anyone, so he hurriedly tried to wipe Tang Yining.
Xie Tianrui saw that Tang Yining stopped chattering and thirsty after drinking the water, and fed her the medicine in a similar way.
"When you wake up, this king will clean you up." Xie Tianrui thought to himself.
Tang Yining drank the medicine and was much quieter, and Xie Tianrui was also relieved.
He sat at the table and thought about everything that had happened, and then thought of the ledger they had found together, because he was in a hurry to find a mechanism to come out, and he didn't have time to look closely, maybe there was some secret in it.
Thinking of this, he quickly returned to his house, opened it and read it carefully.
Time passed minute by minute, and the sharp pain on Tang Yining's neck woke up his confused self.
"Miss, are you awake?" Hu Qian hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.
Tang Yining only felt that his body hurt everywhere, "What's wrong with me?" ”
She only remembered that she had a fight with Xie Tianrui in the cave, and she didn't remember anything after that.
Hu Qian smiled and told Tang Yining the whole thing as if watching a play.
Tang Yining frowned, Xie Tianrui will still take care of people?
After lying down for a while, I felt better before I climbed over the wall and prepared to find Xie Tianrui.
But the first thing I saw after turning over the wall was the bonsai that Xie Tianrui liked, and when I saw the bonsai, I remembered Xie Tianrui's lofty appearance, and I was angry.
She had a plan, since she couldn't teach the flying Xie Tianrui a lesson, she could always teach her potted plants, right? Thinking of this, Tang Yining felt that her neck didn't hurt anymore, and she was in a good mood.
She didn't care about her somewhat weak body, and quickly walked to the potted plant, and when she stretched out her hand, she found Xie Tianrui sitting in front of another potted plant.
It was really ghostly, Tang Yining clenched his fists, feeling weak, feeling that his body was hollowed out.
Xie Tianrui was vigilant and noticed that someone was approaching, and when he looked up and saw that it was Tang Yining, he wondered, "When did you wake up?" What are you doing here? ”
Tang Yining remembered that he ignored him before, and now he also learned from him and didn't speak.
"You don't even say that the king knows, you saw the king's bonsai and want to take revenge." Xie Tianrui sneered.
This woman's heart is really terrifying, and she doesn't even let go of flowers and plants.
Tang Yining didn't expect his careful thinking to be seen through by Xie Tianrui, and he was a little embarrassed, it was indeed not a glorious thing to take a potted plant out of anger.
"Little Junwang, I'm not the kind of stingy person, take a few potted plants to vent your anger, you think too highly of me." Although Tang Yining has a weak heart, he can't lose in terms of momentum when he speaks! Otherwise, the road is out of the way, which really makes Xie Tianrui smile generously.
Xie Tianrui looked at Tang Yining's hard mouth, and suddenly felt a little funny, the girl's mind is so much, she doesn't admit it and wants to save face.
He really didn't understand, even if Tang Yining admitted that he had done something to his potted plants, he wouldn't laugh at her, at most he thought it was funny, after all, his potted plants were not harmed, if his potted plants were really destroyed by her, he would never let her go, never!
Bonsai loses his bottom line, and no one can touch it.
Xie Tianrui's serious thinking side face, delicate facial features, high nose bridge, and gentlemanly eyes made Tang Yining couldn't help but take a few more looks, this Xie Tianrui was quite handsome, and he was a little fascinated by his beauty, especially if he thought you were really affectionate.
"Looking at the ledger we found?" Tang Yining noticed the account book in Xie Tianrui's hand and asked casually, this account book contains the unjust case of Hu Qian's family, can she remember it.
"Well, I always thought this ledger was strange, but I didn't find anything." Xie Tianrui said to himself, after all, Tang Yining is a woman, and he doesn't understand what he is talking about.
Xie Tianrui's contempt, how can Tang Yining see it, in ancient times, women should be inferior to men, they should not know anything, if they can do anything, it is against the sky, it is a great rebellion.
Tang Yining didn't wait for Xie Tianrui to react, the account book had already fallen into her hands, she walked to the table with difficulty and flipped through it carefully.
After a few glances, Tang Yining showed a faint smile in her heart, this small obstacle could not help her, in modern times, she had deciphered all kinds of difficult Morse codes, and it was no problem to use similar solutions to crack the ledger.
"You ......" Xie Tianrui looked at Tang Yining with disgust on his face, he gave her this opportunity, how embarrassed she would be for a while, he didn't care, anyway, it was not himself who was embarrassed.
"These are...... Name? Tang Yining was strange, the names of some people were recorded in this ledger, but who would record these people in the ledger, and what was the purpose of recording these people's names, she couldn't figure this out.
"What's the name?" Xie Tianrui listened to Tang Yining's words and frowned.
