Chapter 214

In autumn, it is dry and prone to static electricity.

Ji Yunxi took out all the dozens of maps that were inside, and then placed them in front of Wu Weian: "All for you."

Wu Weian, who just recovered his senses: "?"

Ji Yunxi lowered her eyes and looked at him quietly with a pair of very beautiful eyes, her tone was soft: "Look, can you wrap it up for me tonight?"

Wu Weian: "??"

He looked down, with a clear rejection in his tone: "Tonight?"

There are dozens of maps here, although it is not difficult for him to circle a location, but with so many, at least it takes some time?

He is a little sleepy now, and he misses the warm bed.

Ji Yunxi nodded: "Well, I can pick the second round when I get up tomorrow. The sooner the branch is opened, the better."

Wu Weian has never been a person who will wrong himself: "Although it is so, it is not bad for a day or two. So, how about I fix it for you tomorrow before going to bed?"

Ji Yunxi chuckled lightly.

She slowly shook her head: "No, I'm going tonight."

Wu Weian raised his lips slightly: "What if I don't?"

Ji Yunxi lowered her head and whispered in his ear, "You can try."

Wu Weian's ears trembled slightly, and the whole ear slowly turned red.

Ji Yunxi stood up straight and glanced casually, as if nothing had happened, and went to bed first.

While walking, the steps are light and slow, and the waist that Yingying holds is looming.

As I said earlier, she is not an innocent girl.

Last night, Wu Weian circled the map in the middle of the night.

When I went to the Hanlin Academy in the morning, I was almost late.

In the evening, when he returned home, Ji Yunxi was away, busy with his business.

After Wu Weian finished his dinner, he went to a certain adult's house.

When he arrived, the other adults had already arrived.

Wu Weian sat low-key in the far corner, resting his head on one hand and playing with the teacup with the other.

He didn't sleep well last night, not because of the map, but because of a growing question in his heart.

As far as he knew, Ji Yunxi didn't have a deep relationship with the young lady in Shangjing, and she was always busy with business.

Even with her ex-fiancé Yang Weitian, they didn't see each other for three years.

These news were asked by Wu Weian, intentionally or unintentionally, when he and Ji Mingyan were together before.

She didn't have many opportunities to interact with men since she was a child, and she was not that kind of temperament either.

Why is such a person like this, understand?

At the last palace banquet, when he was angry with Feng Wu, he actually already had this doubt.

It's just that at that time, he didn't pay much attention to it.

But last night, the same doubts appeared again.

She seemed to know a little too well.

Such a whisper in the ear, such an exhalation like a blue, such an invisible slight charm.

Wu Weian was thoughtful.

It just so happened that an adult asked him during the banquet: "What does Mr. Wu have to say about the fifth prince here?"

In the words, with respect.

The matter of the fifth prince this time, after all, it was Wu Weian who controlled the bureau.

And the other party is not missing any omissions, and the first shot is an extremely ruthless killing move, which makes everyone quite jealous.

If this Lord Xiao Wu is not their companion, but their enemy, then the current situation of the five princes and one party is their situation.

Wu Weian really has something to say.

He took a sip of water and said, "The two dozen people who sued the Department of Punishment and Dali Temple by beating the drums, I heard that you all gave them silver after the incident?"

The adults nodded, not feeling anything wrong: "Yes."

Wu Weian's expression was light, but he was not angry: "Why give it?"

The adults were puzzled by the second monk he asked.

"Ah? Aren't they all given?"

"Yeah, we used to do things like this. Isn't it right for those who help us to give some silver?"

"And it's not too much, just twenty taels of silver for a family."

Wu Weian put down the tea cup, with a displeased look on his face: "Twenty-three families, twenty taels per family, is four hundred and sixty taels of silver. How many things can be bought for four hundred and sixty taels, and how many things can be done? The truth, you adults must know better than me."

The adults don't care.

They respect Wu Weian, but that doesn't mean they don't have their own temperament.

"These 20 taels are considered hush money! If those people spread the news about us picking up the drums and vindicating them, wouldn't it be a lot of trouble?"

Wu Weian glanced at the speaking adult, and his tone was cold: "Twenty taels of silver, whose mouth do you think you can keep? Those who can speak will always speak, and those who can't speak will never speak. Besides, in this matter, it's not them who helped us, but we helped them reverse the case. It's good that we confiscate their money, but you returned the money?"

At the end of the day, Wu Weian almost hates iron not turning into steel.

It makes sense, the adults in the room looked at each other.

Another adult asked: "But what if other princes, or the Sage, knew that we did it behind the scenes?"

Wu Weian snorted lightly: "Do you think they don't know? They have long known that we did it. Therefore, since then, all adults have to be careful and careful in their actions in the imperial court."

This issue

After the reveal, Wu Weian mentioned a few more things.

It's all small, money-related matters.
