Chapter 557: A concubine will not lead a dog easily (34)

"Appearance is not the only condition for liking someone."

No matter how good-looking he is, what's the use.

The princess snorted coldly and rolled her eyes twice, "Master, you are so powerful, can you make the kind of fragrance that makes people like them after using it?"

"That's not making incense, that's witchcraft."

"Then you can?"

"..."

It would be great if he could.

Shi Yu looked at the little princess and said in a cold but unquestionable tone: "Princess, I will take you back."

"ah……"

…

…

The night was silent, and the moonlight flowed quietly in the courtyard, slipping into the house through the cracks in the doors and windows.

In the exquisitely carved bed, Wang Jianghua slept uneasily, as if she had had a nightmare.

"don't want……"

"do not come."

"I did not do it on purpose……"

"Help!"

Wang Jianghua sat up suddenly, clutched her chest, and started panting heavily.

The scene in front of me could not be shaken away.

She dreamed of the real Xu Ran again...

Xu Ran asked her in her dream why she wanted to harm her and why she wanted to take away her parents...

Wang Jianghua's face was pale, and thin beads of sweat oozed from her forehead.

Ever since Lu Zicheng came to see her, she had nightmares like this every now and then, and she never had a good night's sleep.

Wang Jianghua couldn't sleep anymore after she woke up, "Cuifang? Cuifang?"

Where did this damn girl go?

Wang Jianghua was thirsty, so she got up and went to the table to pour water, but the teapot was empty.

She put on her clothes and went out. She didn't go far when she saw two people standing by the pavilion.

One of them is Father Xu, the other...

"Now that we've reached this point, it's impossible for you to quit now..."

"Okay, don't mention this again in the future."

Wang Jianghua watched Xu's father finish talking to the other party, and the man left in a hurry.

Father Xu stood in the pavilion and did not move for a long time.

Wang Jianghua walked over from the darkness and said, "Father."

Hearing the sound, Xu's father came back to his senses and looked towards her, "Xiao Ao, why aren't you sleeping so late?"

"Who was the person who spoke to you just now?"

Xu's father said: "Don't ask too much about business matters. Go back to bed quickly."

Wang Jianghua hesitated and then spoke: "Father, do you have any dealings with the palace..."

"shut up!"

Wang Jianghua was startled.

"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask." Xu's father said with a cold face and an unprecedented seriousness, "Go back quickly!"

"But……"

"go back!!"

Wang Jianghua saw that Xu's father was really angry, so she had to turn around and leave.

She was confused during this period, worried that her secret would be exposed, and almost forgot about it.

If Xu’s father is not persuaded to take it out quickly, I’m afraid...

When Wang Jianghua thought of this, she felt the urgency of time.

Although she knew the plot, the plot was not detailed. She could only know the approximate time points.

Wang Jianghua tried to talk to Xu's father several times about this matter. However, Xu's father had been having business troubles recently and had been leaving early and coming back late, making it difficult to meet him.

Wang Jianghua finally caught Xu's father, but as soon as she said a few words, Xu's father scolded her and told her that she was a girl and should not ask about these things.

Father Xu was really angry and grounded her directly.

"Miss, why do you always make me angry lately?" Cuifang could tell that Xu's father was really angry.

"..."

Does she want to?

She is not here for the Xu family.

Cuifang: "You have been in a bad mood recently. You may not know that our family and the Li family have almost come to blows recently. There are a lot of troubles now, and the master is also upset."

Wang Jianghua was stunned, "What's going on?"

Lu Zicheng hasn't come to see her recently...

"Hey, it's not just business matters. The Li family ran into our house for more than a day or two. This time they dug up a perfume maker from somewhere, which made our business worse. There are many other frictions. In short, the relationship

It’s already very bad.”

After listening to Cuifang's words, Wang Jianghua was ready to go out and take a look.

She is now the young lady of Xu Mansion, so of course she can't watch Xu Mansion collapse like this.

However, as soon as she went out, someone sent a letter.

After reading the letter, Wang Jianghua was still in the mood to go see the shop, so she asked Cuifang to change direction uneasily.

…

…

Two months later.

Because the Xu family did not purchase a batch of raw materials in time, a batch of finished incense was not delivered on time, offending a long-term merchant of theirs.

The reason why the procurement of this batch of raw materials was not timely was because the Li family was obstructing it.

Since this incident, the Xu family has been hit by bad luck, and everything they do is unlucky.

Wang Jianghua's life was not easy either. Lu Zicheng asked her to inquire about news every now and then.

How dare she say no to Lu Zicheng?

She even thought about finding someone to assassinate Lu Zicheng...

But Lu Zicheng seemed to have expected it, and warned her that if he died, someone would soon send the news to Xu Mansion that she was not Xu Ran.

Wang Jianghua Xu felt that she could not protect herself, and Xu's father would not listen to her, so she began to think of other escape routes.

She must save some money for herself now. The Xu family still has money. As long as she leaves the capital before something happens to the Xu family, I believe she can live a good life on her own.

So Wang Jianghua began to work hard to fill her small treasury, selling off all the things she could sell and replacing them with banknotes that were easy to carry.

In the afternoon that day, Wang Jianghua came out of the room and saw Cuifang running over in a hurry. She called to stop her: "Cuifang, why are you running?"

"Miss, the master asked us to go to the front hall."

"??" Wang Jianghua's heart skipped a beat: "What are you going to do?"

"have no idea……"

Wang Jianghua soon knew what Xu's father had called these people for.

Xu's father suspected that there was a spy in the house.

But Xu's father only suspected the servants and did not suspect Wang Jianghua.

Of course nothing was found in the end.

…

…

"People who are watching Wang Jianghua say that she has been secretly exchanging banknotes recently."
