Chapter 509: The Vase of Cannon Fodder in the Machiavellian Story (22)
Jiang Lai looked at Chu Yunxuan with wide eyes and said.
"Your Highness, you have lost my dowry, how can I still trust you?"
"..."
At this moment, Chu Yunxuan suspected that Jiang Lai already knew the whereabouts of her dowry and was just deliberately reporting it to the official to embarrass him!
Then Jiang Lai said something lightly.
"Your Highness, you gave me the gift for safekeeping. Now that something like this has happened, I feel guilty and uneasy. But I don't have any clues. I suspect that there is a thief in our family."
As soon as he said these words, Chu Yunxuan asked in a high-pitched voice like a cat whose claws were burned.
"Are you suspecting that I have tampered with your dowry?!"
Jiang Lai resisted the urge to slap him and shook his head repeatedly.
"Your Highness, the Son of the True Dragon, will definitely not do such sneaky and dirty things. I believe in Your Highness.
But there are so many people in our yard. Just because you won’t do it doesn’t mean others won’t. ”
Chu Yunxuan had a dark face.
"Then who do you think you suspect?"
"Today, I saw the female doctor in our mansion on the street. Didn't you say that this female doctor had no father or mother and was born alone? But what do you think I did when I saw her on the street?
She is at a free clinic! ”
"Free clinics are a good thing. What's wrong with free clinics? Are you allowed to make such malicious assumptions about others?!"
The more guilty Chu Yunxuan felt, the louder his voice became, trying to suppress Jiang Lai with his momentum.
But Jiang Lai treated him as a fart.
"But she not only gave free clinics, but also gave alms. I watched her give away a whole carriage of medicinal materials throughout the day.
Those medicinal materials were good and bad, but one piece of them was very expensive, extremely expensive. How could she, an orphan with no name and no mother, have the money to buy so many medicinal materials?
So I thought she must have stolen the money from my wing! ”
It was reasonable and well-founded. If Chu Yunxuan hadn't known that the money was given by him, he would have almost believed Jiang Lai's words.
But she was not completely wrong. After all, the money Zhao Ziyan gave away was indeed taken from Jiang Lai's dowry.
He did take some, day after day, but he didn't expect it to be used up so quickly!
He originally thought that he would give it back to Jiang Lai after he ascended the throne, but now it's better. After she made such a fuss and cried, he would no longer feel guilty towards her even if he ascended the throne!
"Stop crying! What do you want to do! Make random thoughts and suspicions, and spread the scandal of the family. Haven't your parents taught you what it means to keep scandals out of the house!"
Jiang Lai raised his sleeves and looked completely collapsed.
"I'm going to find that female doctor! I'm going to ask her to explain it to me!"
"Don't go!"
Chu Yunxuan held her back.
This kind of thing is already embarrassing enough, but what kind of trouble does it take for her to be satisfied!
Jiang Lai seemed to be calmed down, and then stared at him.
"If you don't let me go, I will tell Master Liu, or you can help me ask and ask her to tell me clearly where the money for alms comes from!"
Chu Yunxuan frowned and looked angry. He was finally clean after leaving Jiang Lai'er, but the anger in his heart still made him feel restless. No matter what he saw, he felt displeased. He still couldn't stand it when he arrived at the door of the courtyard. I couldn't help kicking down a pot of evergreen tree at the door.
Zhao Ziyan heard the ping-pong-pong-pong noise outside, and as soon as she got up, she saw Chu Yunxuan coming in with a dark face.
Looking at his expression, Zhao Ziyan knew that he had hit a wall in the court again.
"What's wrong? Things are not going well between North Korea and China?"
This was their first meeting after the Cold War. Zhao Ziyan's attitude was slightly softer and she wanted to be the first to break the deadlock.
But the man in front of him still had a cold face, and he asked rudely after entering the door.
"Did you go to the free clinic today?"
When Zhao Ziyan heard this, she couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously thought that he knew that she had met Chu Yunci behind his back today.
But she made sure that Chu Yunxuan didn't see it with her own eyes, so she calmed down and asked.
"Well, what's wrong?"
"What do you think of giving alms openly on Prince Edward Street? What do you think of doing so in such a high-profile manner!"
The inexplicable tantrum made Zhao Ziyan's temper also rise.
What happened to her charity clinic?
Isn't it to pave the way for their future development?
"Why are you crazy?"
"Don't do anything else next. If someone comes to ask you where the silver you gave away came from, just tell the truth that I gave it to you. Tell the truth."
When Zhao Ziyan heard this, she was completely confused.
"What do you mean?"
"It means that your blatant charity has caused me big trouble. All you can do is don't do anything. Do you understand?!"
Chu Yunxuan's attitude cannot be said to be good, and he is even very irritable and impatient.
Zhao Ziyan had never experienced such grievances, but she was still frightened by the other party's anger. She was angry and aggrieved, and finally had to suppress her emotions and asked.
"What happened?"
Chu Yunxuan calmed down a little and roughly explained the matter.
"Jiang Lai saw it and went to look for her dowry when he came back. Now he has even made trouble with the government!"
"Can't you just take care of it? Do the government officials dare to search our place?"
"It's Liu Yi! Governor Liu Yi! The person around Chu Yunci! It's him! Damn Jiang Lai, is she deliberately going against me!"
On the other side, Little Pudding laughed mercilessly.
"Hahahahaha, it's a pity that you can't see it. The two of them are arguing like black-eyed chickens. This relationship can't withstand the tossing!"
"Keep listening."
Little Pudding suppressed his laughter and continued to listen, unable to help but complain.
"The heroine's mind is spinning very fast. She suggested that as long as you die, the dowry matter will be over. Jiang Lai, you are in danger."
"Well, it's expected. It's quite reasonable. Let's continue."
It fits their personality.
"Zhao Ziyan plans to tamper with the food, end your life in advance, and suppress the matter before it gets too serious, so as to save Chu Yunxuan's face."
"I'm dead at this juncture, isn't it more suspicious? Two people can't come up with the same idea, eh... boring."
"No, Chu Yunxuan has some brains. He has also thought of this. His plan is to make you give up on your own. From this point of view, he has to use a beauty trick on you."
Jiang Lai rolled his eyes.
She was not interested in listening to the next words.
This Chu Yunxuan is also a ruthless person. He has truly achieved what it means to be flexible and flexible, and he dares to sacrifice everything for his career.
It was evening, Jiang came to wash up and prepare to rest, but suddenly there were footsteps outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, the door opened, and Chu Yunxuan's tall figure appeared in Jiang Lai's bedroom. He was dressed in a dark purple robe and matched with that fair and handsome face, which was indeed a bit pleasing to the eye.
Jiang Lai was sitting in front of the mirror wiping his hair. When he saw this scene, his expression was obviously stunned.
"Why are you here?"
Chu Yunxuan slowly walked forward, came behind Jiang Lai, and looked at the two people in the mirror. (End of chapter)
