I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

  Chapter 225 is unreliable!

  There are not many items in the light gray bag.

  Two books plus an exquisite black wooden box.

   Fortunately, the two books were wrapped with a layer of oil paper, so the books were not damaged by freezing.

   "Third brother, I don't know much, and I don't know what is written in this book, why don't you read it?" After Shen Erlang picked up the two books, he subconsciously looked at Shen Yao.

  Shen Yao nodded slightly. When he took the book, he found that it was not a book at all, but a roster.

  The names of many people are recorded on it, and each name is marked in red.

  After turning two pages, Shen Yao guessed a general idea.

   "This wooden box should have been made by Brother Angkor himself," Shen Erlang looked at the pattern of acacia flowers carved on the wooden box, and his tone could not help but feel a sense of sadness.

  In the exquisite wooden box, there are two strands of blue silk tied together with red string.

"Unexpectedly, these are the relics of the Phoenix butterfly girl," Ji Zhao couldn't help feeling, "The so-called marriage is a husband and wife, and there is no doubt about love and affection. I think the relationship between this Phoenix butterfly girl and that big brother Ang is really good. .”

   "Yes!" Shen Erlang kept nodding his head, "Brother Angus and Miss Pavillion are from the same hometown, and they were childhood sweethearts since they were young. It's a pity that there was a flood in their hometown later, and many villages were submerged."

"Later they met again by accident in Leishan County. It took more than three years for Brother Ang to persuade Miss Swallow Die. The two discussed that they would go back to their hometown to get married when they saved enough money to redeem Swallow Die. It’s just that things are unpredictable…”

  Who would have thought that both of them would die unexpectedly?

   "Second brother, is this Phoenix Butterfly girl very famous in Fengyue Tower?" Shen Yao quietly put away the two ledgers and asked softly.

   "Yes," Shen Erlang nodded, "I heard that this girl of Swallow Butterfly is the oiran of Fengyue Tower, and her pipa is unmatched by anyone."

   "And I heard that the magistrate of Leishan County likes to listen to Swallow Die playing the pipa, and he often goes in and out of Fengyue Tower."

  Leishan County, magistrate, Swallowtail girl, account book.

  Shen Yao lowered his eyes lightly, sorting out all the clues in his mind.

   "But didn't the old bustard of Fengyuelou insist that Erlang took the savings of Swallow Die girl?" Zhao Lanhua frowned worriedly, "I always feel that this matter is not easy."

   "Her words alone can't explain anything." Ji Zhao quickly comforted, "Mother, don't worry, we will definitely find a solution to the problem."

"hope so!"

Zhao Lanhua didn't dare to say that since this morning, her right eyelid has been twitching non-stop. Today, she originally wanted to visit other neighbors in the village to pay New Year's greetings, but she always wanted to I felt uneasy, so I didn't go out.

   "Second brother, these two books are very interesting, why don't you lend me to read them for two days first?" Shen Yao turned to Shen Zhang and begged with a smile.

   "Okay." Of course Shen Erlang would not be stingy with his younger brother.

After Ji Zhao accompanied Shen Yao back to their own room, her eyes fell on the budding wintersweet placed in front of the window lattice, "I smelled a burst of fragrance when I just walked in, I just now I know, it's actually Meixiang? Shen Yao, when did you go pick winter plums?"

   "After waking up in the morning, when I was walking around the yard, I happened to see a wintersweet plant, and I couldn't help picking it off." Shen Yao smiled at her, and explained in a gentle tone.

   "There are flowers that can be broken straight away, don't wait for no flowers to break branches." Ji Zhao said with a smile, "This wintersweet that is in bud is really beautiful."

   "As long as Ah Tao likes it."

   "Shen Yao."

"Um?"

   "What are you thinking?" Ji Zhao walked in front of him, his gentle eyes were full of concern, "There is something wrong with you."

   "A Tao, why did you say that?" Shen Yao was stopped by her question.

"We have recovered the burden of the second brother. This is something to be happy about, but..." Ji Zhao thought for a while, and his eyes fell on the two books he was holding in his hand, "Shen Yao, what is this?" It's not a book, it's a ledger, and it's also evidence, right?"

A flash of astonishment flashed across Shen Yao's eyes, he looked around subconsciously, then closed the door and window again, took a deep breath, and then suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, "A Tao, are you How do you know?"

"When the second brother asked you to read these two books just now, your expression was a little strange." Ji Zhao gently held his hand, and his words were full of tenderness and comfort, "I will stand by you Next to it, I naturally saw this book... no, the contents of this ledger."

"Second brother said that Miss Fengdie is the flower head of Fengyue Tower, she has a good reputation, and more importantly, even the county magistrate Sun of Leishan County is very fond of her; today, the old bustard of Fengyue Tower is ostensibly for Miss Phoenix Die It came from a relic of yours, but in fact, what she wants should be this account book that you hold in your hand."

   "If I'm not mistaken, this ledger is likely to be a bribery or embezzlement list?"

  Listening to Ji Zhao's calm analysis, the panic in Shen Yao's eyes was gradually replaced by amazement—

  His A Tao is smarter than he imagined!

   "A Tao, you are really too smart... If you are a man, I am afraid I am not as good as you." Shen Yao looked into her eyes and said seriously.

  Puff Chi~

Ji Zhao was amused by his serious appearance. She stood on tiptoe and gently tapped the tip of his nose, "What are you talking about? If I become a man, how can I become your wife? Besides, in In my eyes, Shen Yao is the most powerful!"

  Her voice is very sweet, and the smile on her face is also very bright.

  At this moment, Shen Yao's heart throbbed uncontrollably.

  How could his A Tao be so beautiful?

   "Shen Yao, let's get back to business?" Seeing his still dazed expression, Ji Zhao flicked his forehead helplessly, and asked softly, "What should we do next?"

   "The bustard of Fengyuelou doesn't seem like someone who will give up easily." Ji Zhao frowned a little embarrassedly, "Shen Yao, should we find a way to help second brother?"

   "The county government won't reopen until after the eighth day of the lunar new year." Shen Yao subconsciously clenched the ledger in his hand, his eyes darkened, "A Tao, after the eighth day of the new year, let's go visit Ma County magistrate."

"County Magistrate Ma?" Ji Zhao raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "Shen Yao, you want Magistrate Ma to come forward? But I heard that he has always been friends with Magistrate Sun of Leishan County, how could he agree to our plea Maybe he and County Magistrate Sun have already been together, otherwise he wouldn't have let Ji Huai go after County Magistrate Sun said hello!"

  Ji Zhao sincerely thinks that Ma County Magistrate is unreliable!

   "A Tao, there are no permanent friends in the officialdom, only permanent interests." Shen Yao lowered his eyes and chuckled.
