Sign in: The female supporting character in the book disrupted the heroine's glory

Chapter 402 I can never pay it back in this lifetime

"Have you taken today's medicine?" Jiang Youzhen turned around and asked.

"It's being frying in the kitchen and will be ready soon!" Kong didn't say anything when she saw Jiang Youzhen sitting beside the bed.

She couldn't sleep for the past two days. After thinking it over, she felt that she couldn't offend Jiang Youzhen.

The Qian family is not wealthy, and now that the master is no longer of any use, it is impossible for the family to take care of them anymore.

But the family's money would be wasted, and her dowry shop only made a few hundred taels of profit a year.

With the master now in this state, who will their family rely on in the future? Jiang Youzhen is smart and will definitely be able to enter the government in the future. As long as she continues to feel guilty about the master's affairs, she will never leave them alone.

Although she still vented her anger on Jiang Youzhen, she finally figured it out and began to slowly change her attitude.

The medicine was brought in quickly, and after Jiang Youzhen waited for it to cool down, he began to feed it to Qian Chongen himself.

Jiang Youzhen secretly put the spiritual spring water into the medicine, but he didn't dare to put too much, only one drop.

Because we don't know the effect of the spiritual spring water, if it causes obvious abnormalities, it might arouse suspicion.

Qian Chongen sighed and suddenly felt that his heavy body of the past two days was much lighter.

The decoction that used to taste like Coptis chinensis actually had a hint of sweetness today. I wonder if it was his illusion.

There were tears in Qian Chongen's eyes. It's not that he didn't have any resentment, but in the end it was not Jiang Youzhen's fault.

Qian Chongen was very sleepy these two days and fell asleep again not long after taking the medicine.

"I heard that you caught the man, but he escaped again. What happened? Is he the real murderer? Should we report it to the police?"

Kong called Jiang Youzhen into the courtyard. Although she knew that there would probably be no explanation for this matter, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart.

Jiang Youzhen sighed, "Master's wife! This matter involves the court, and that person was just following orders! I already know the real culprit behind the scenes, but I can't touch him at the moment. But don't worry, I will remember this grudge in my heart and will never forget it."

Prince! Jiang Youzhen snorted in her heart, thinking that she had no foundation and you would let her be bullied? She would never let this go!

Kong frowned, with a hint of fear in her disappointment.

"Who is it?" Kong's voice trembled a little.

Jiang Youzhen hesitated for a moment and still felt that Kong had the right to know.

"It's the prince!"

"Prince?" Kong covered her mouth in shock.

After a long while, Kong finally came to her senses. "How could it be the prince? Our family has nothing to do with the prince, and we have never offended him. Why would he want to harm the master?"

Jiang Youzhen took a deep breath and said, "It's probably because of me. I'm really sorry for involving you in the court dispute."

Kong knew it was because of Jiang Youzhen, and she wanted Jiang Youzhen to admit it himself. Jiang Youzhen owed their family a debt that he would never be able to repay in his lifetime.

"Is it simply because he doesn't want you to join the Fourth Prince's army? He acts so overbearingly?"

Jiang Youzhen shook his head. "I have never met him, so I don't know his character. But he is not someone you can get along with if he behaves this way."

"My master and I have settled in Tongzhou Prefecture and have been away from the court for a long time. I am not clear about the situation in the court. In addition, I am just a woman in the inner house, so I can do nothing about this matter. But they act so recklessly, how can my master be innocent?"

Kong couldn't help sobbing. She felt so miserable but had no one to vent.

Her daughter has reached the age to get married, but her husband has suffered such a misfortune. How can she not be worried?

Jiang Youzhen felt extremely sorry, and he began to feel disgust and hatred towards the prince, whom he had never met.

"Teacher's wife, don't worry. This matter will not be left unresolved. If you harm the teacher, you will have to pay the price in the end."

Jiang Youzhen's face was stern. Seeing Jiang Youzhen like this, Kong couldn't help but worry.

"You are just a student now, what can you do? Don't be impulsive, a gentleman's revenge is never too late. Lay low for now and wait for the right opportunity to act. The master is already like this, if you do something else, the master will only feel worse."

Kong was afraid that Jiang Youzhen would act impulsively. It was fine for her to stay with the master, but what about her daughter? Without a brother to rely on and with her father becoming like this, who would support her in the future?

"Don't worry, Master's wife. I am not an impulsive person."

In fact, Jiang Youzhen already had an idea in mind. Since the prince was restless, let's move that matter forward! It was bound to come to that step anyway.

Jiang Youzhen had not been back to Qian's house for several days, so he planned to go back and visit again tomorrow.

Jiang Youzhen asked Qinglang to harness the carriage and went to the front yard. She had to make some arrangements for that matter, and she had to think of a foolproof solution.

"Master, aren't you going to have lunch at home today?"

At this time, Manager Liu saw Jiang Youzhen was about to leave, so he asked casually.

Their servants have become accustomed to Jiang Youzhen's presence and have long regarded Jiang Youzhen as a close person of the master's family.

"Take good care of the master in the next two days. Doctor Lu has recommended that the medicated doctor come back today and prescribe a prescription for you. The kitchen will buy the ingredients according to the list and cook it for the teacher as instructed."

Jiang Youzhen almost forgot about the main thing. She thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to report the expenses of the medicinal food, medicinal materials and the doctor to the government. When the time comes, just give me the account book and let them come to me to settle the bill."

These expenses are reasonable, after all, they are Qian Chongen's expenses.

"This?" Manager Liu didn't know whether he should listen or not. After all, Jiang Youzhen was not the master of the mansion yet.

If the ceremony of becoming a disciple is successful, then they can be considered as family members, which is barely acceptable.

"Just do as you are told. If the Master's wife asks, just tell her that it was me who made the decision. I will explain it to you."

Only then did Manager Liu agree, but he still decided to report to his wife later.

The Second Prince's Mansion in Beijing

"Your Highness, our people have been gathering information at the border, but have not found any loopholes."

In the candlelit outer study, a man in tight clothes reported.

"It's unbelievable. There can't be no clues. With so many people, where could he hide?"

The second prince pondered and shook his head. He was puzzled.

It’s a pity that he only knew a little about this matter in his previous life, and his father blocked the news. Therefore, although he knows about it now, he still has no idea where to go.

"Your Highness! The people at the border are tough and most of them are good at martial arts. Even women can wield a whip. Do you think he could be hiding among them?"

The second prince thought for a long time and shook his head.

"The border is heavily guarded. If you don't have a pass and household registration, you will be checked. It's unlikely that the local people were trained as soldiers. If they are not slaves, they will not obey orders and will be difficult to control. But if the local people are slaves, it can be seen from the household registration."

The second prince felt that doing so was too risky. The people at the border were so fierce that it would not be easy to capture the local people.

Without the status of a lowly person, it would be even more difficult to control them.

"Besides, the military training is quite a big event, it is impossible not to be discovered."

"Check again carefully! As soon as possible!" the second prince ordered.

After the man in the study left, Jin Ming outside the door reported: "Your Highness! There is a letter from Tongzhou Prefecture."
