Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 546 Who else knows?

"Shuyi, I came to you this time because I have something to tell you."

"sit down."

Mrs. Shao said in a deep voice.

"it is good."

After hearing what her mother said, Shao Shuyi sat obediently beside her.

"Shuyi, I plan to let you take over part of the Shao family's business starting tomorrow."

"What!?"

When Shao Shuyi heard this, she was stunned for a moment!

"Mother, isn't this too early? You and father are in good health. I...I am accepting this too early. Isn't it necessary?"

"Haha, Shuyi, your father and I have other things to do, so the family business will be handed over to you!"

"You need to get started as soon as possible, understand?" Mrs. Shao smiled faintly

But Shao Shuyi was stunned. Mrs. Shao and the others had other things to do! ?

What was that about? Wasn't it to...deal with Jiang Chen?!

"Mother, what are the other things you mentioned?" Shao Shuyi couldn't help but ask.

"Hehe, I can't tell you anything else now."

"You will know it in the future."

Mrs. Shao said with a smile on her face.

"This……"

When Shao Shuyi heard her mother's words, she was even more confused.

Logically speaking, her mother wouldn't hide anything from her if she had any problems!

Now this situation...

Is something big happening?

I hope it’s not against Jiang Chen!

Shao Shuyi prayed silently in her heart.

Although she knew that her mother had never had her in her heart before.

But she also didn't want her mother and Jiang Chen to reach a point where they would fight to the death!

At the same time, in Jiang Chen’s mansion.

Xue Linglong came to Jiang Chen's room.

"Jiang Chen, please wake up soon~"

"You...if you don't wake up, I...what should I do!"

"I have lost my parents and my brother."

"I...I don't want to be without you anymore..."

……

Xue Linglong sat beside Jiang Chen's bed, crying inconsolably.

At this moment, Jiang Chen slowly sat up and wiped away the tears on Xue Linglong's face...

"Jiang... Jiang Chen!?"

"you……"

Xue Linglong saw Jiang Chen wake up!

So excited that I want to shout!

But Jiang Chen quickly covered her mouth.

"Don't shout, don't shout!"

"I'm fine. I was just pretending before. You can't tell anyone!"

Jiang Chen whispered in Xue Linglong's ear.

"What!? You were just pretending before!?"

Xue Linglong was shocked!

But in a flash, the shock turned into resentment!

"Jiang Chen, why didn't you tell me in advance if you were pretending!"

“I’m so scared!”

"Hey, I didn't tell you because I was afraid someone might find out about you, right?"

"I'm telling you, there might be spies planted in this mansion!"

"So, after you leave, you must pretend to be worried~"

Jiang Chen now coaxed Xue Linglong like he was coaxing a child.

"I...I understand. I won't ruin your plans." Xue Linglong said obediently.

Jiang Chen hugged Xue Linglong, feeling mixed emotions

He originally wanted to hide this from Xue Linglong and not tell her about it.

But given the current situation, if I don’t tell Xue Linglong, I’m afraid... Xue Linglong will cry until she hurts herself.

I just hope Xue Linglong can keep the secret after she gets out.

Xue Linglong left after staying with Jiang Chen for a while.

After Xue Linglong left, Jiang Chen called Xu Yunchang.

"My Lord, are you looking for me?" Xu Yunchang asked respectfully.

……

"Brother, please arrange for more people to keep an eye on Xue Linglong and don't let anyone disturb her. I'm afraid she... can't keep the secret." Jiang Chen said helplessly.

"Don't worry, my Lord. I will make sure it's arranged!"

Xu Yunchang said respectfully.

"Ah."

Jiang Chen nodded, and then asked: "By the way, brother, how is the situation in the capital?"

"My Lord, the capital is now closed, and you can only enter and leave."

"General Feng is responsible for this matter!"

"As for investigating the remnants of the previous dynasty, it is the Golden Dragon Guards who are doing it!"

"In front of us, we don't know the news."

Xu Yunchang told everything.

"General Feng?"

Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

This General Feng always gave Jiang Chen a strange feeling.

Jiang Chen couldn't tell whether this feeling was good or bad, anyway... it was very strange.

"Brother, please send someone to notify Xu Meng to come back. I have something to talk to him about!"

"Yes!"

Xu Yunchang took the order and left.

Jiang Chen was in the room, looking at the ceiling of the bed, lost in thought.

On the other side, the men sent out by Eunuch Zhang also returned.

"How is it? Did you find anything in those places?" Eunuch Zhang asked in a deep voice.

"Your Excellency! Those places are already deserted!"

"We...we haven't found anything yet!" said the leader of the Golden Dragon Guard with a look of fear.

"Haha, all the characters are hollowed out?"

"interesting!"

Eunuch Zhang smiled faintly.

He had anticipated this a long time ago.

But after actually verifying it, he felt something was wrong!

"Take me to see the old procuress!"

"Yes!"

Following Eunuch Zhang's order, the commander of the Golden Dragon Guard brought Eunuch Zhang to a small courtyard in the backyard.

……

As the door of the courtyard opened, the old procuress with a pale face appeared before him.

"Sir...sir..."

When the madam saw Eunuch Zhang coming, she knelt on the ground in a hurry.

"Haha, you are very dishonest!"

"I had decided to spare your life, but... you are still hiding something from me!" Eunuch Zhang sat on the chair in the room and laughed coldly.

"Sir, I...I was wronged!"

"I...I really didn't lie to you!"

"Those are the places I know!" the madam said tremblingly.

"haha, really?"

"Then why didn't my people find anything after they went there?!"

"You're not lying to me, what are you!?"

"Um!?"

Eunuch Zhang said coldly!

"Sir, I...I really only know these locations!"

"They... they probably saw me get arrested, so... so they moved away..."

"Sir, you must believe me!"

The madam begged.

"I trust you?"

"Are you the only one in Wangyue Tower who has contact with them?!"

"Is there anyone else who is connected to them!?"

Eunuch Zhang asked coldly.

"This...this..." The old procuress was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

"Haha, it looks like... it's pregnant!"

Eunuch Zhang's mouth corners curled up slightly.

"Tell me, who else knows about those remnants?"

"If you don't tell me..."

"Sir! I...I said!"

"That... that Ru Meng also knows about their affairs..."

"It is said...it is said that Ru Meng is...the woman of the leader of those people..."

"So...so she may know more than me..."

In order to survive, the madam confessed everything.

This time, she completely broke with the remnants of the previous dynasty...!
