Rebirth of the Imperial Examination: The Empress of the Impoverished Family

Chapter 54
It was probably in the evening that Lu Huangnian came out of the brocade hall.

He drooped his brows and eyes, and rubbed his slender fingers at his temples, then he restrained his momentum and walked quietly to the student's dormitory.

Not that he deliberately concealed the two gentlemen.

It was selfish to bring up the elder Ge's matter, but he hadn't completely lost his mind. He said those words just to beat Jiang Yuanze.

The forces of all parties are intricate.

If there is any negligence, there will be no whole body.

He was alone, and he was not afraid of giving up his life, but he was afraid of implicating innocent people.

As for Jiang Jin, he hoped to become an ally with him.

With the same hatred on his back, how can he live easily?
Out of habit, he went to Jiang Jin's side to take a look at the situation, but unexpectedly, Jiang Jin, who was supposed to be asleep, was sneaking out and heading for the back mountain.

Lu Huangnian couldn't help following curiously, and after a while he found a breath chasing him from afar.

He stopped right where he was.

Only a pair of stunning eyes were exposed in the dark night.

Looking at it from a distance, it should be a man of his age, with heavy clothes tightly wrapped around his body, and it can be seen from his tight muscles that he should have been exercising all year round.

If you join the army, you should be a good seedling.

Thinking of this Lu Huangnian, he couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, he still couldn't change this habit after so many years.

In order to avoid accidents, he still chose to leave without alarming Jiang Jin.

And after he left.

The thin figure turned his head.

It is Castle Peak.

His deep gaze was fixed on the place where Lu Huangnian had just hid.

After pursing his lips, he continued walking forward without looking back.

This is a hot spring he discovered not long ago. It is troublesome for the young master to take a bath, but it is a remote place with no one around, so it is a good place.

He and Jiang Jin would meet here every few days.

When Qingshan arrived, Jiang Jin was dozing off by the stone in the spring.

She gets up early and goes to bed late every day, and she has to think about things when she is studying. Thanks to her young age, she can barely make it through, but if she drags on for a long time, I'm afraid the grandma will wave to her from below.

"Master, wake up."

Jiang Jin raised his head in a daze, saw Qingshan, rubbed his eyes and stretched, "Well, here we come."

As she said that, she was about to stand up, ready to let Qingshan watch over her so that she could go to take a bath, but she didn't notice the strangeness of Qingshan.

When she came out after washing, her face soaked in hot water was extraordinarily rosy, because there were stone walls around and the heat was drying, even though her hair was not dry, she didn't feel cold.

Qing Shan turned his back to her, blocking her tightly with his body.

The master and servant are very used to this way of getting along.

After all, the fact that Jiang Jin is a girl has to be hidden in the coffin.

Aoyama expressed his worries.

"Although I didn't see who it was, I can be sure that someone followed you before me. His martial arts were excellent. The moment I spotted him, he also spotted me."

Jiang Jin, who was wiping his hair, paused, and unconsciously frowned.

"However, he didn't catch up. The young master is alone in the academy. You must pay attention in the future."

Jiang Jin nodded to show that he understood.

Aoyama was a little worried, and she was too.

It's not just because of gender, there's also a reason why she and A Niang are hiding and hiding their identities.

If it is possible, her identity will be hidden for a while, and she is afraid that she has already been targeted by the people in the capital.

Jiang Jin pretended to be relaxed, but instead comforted Qing Shan, "I will definitely be careful, and you don't have to worry too much, it's still very safe here."

Qingshan accepted Jiang Jin's statement, but his eyebrows still did not relax.

"I'm worried about the outside, isn't there any trouble?"

"No." Qingshan shook his head, "I came today because of Qingye's affairs."

He took out a stack of papers from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Jin, "She means asking for your approval."

Jiang Jin took it curiously.

The font on the paper is neat, but it looks stiff and unskilled, like the kind of imitation that has just been learned.

She carefully read the content on the paper, and found that this is where Qingshan asked her to approve?

Every line between the lines means notification.

Her opinion doesn't matter.

Qingye meant to expand the wonton stall into a regular restaurant. In order to upgrade the taste and taste, he found a partner to invest in technology.

Now that the restaurant is about to open, it's useless for her boss to object.

She actually had no reason to object.

She originally wanted to open the restaurant, but she couldn't implement it because of various considerations.

Both left and right are making money for her, so she doesn't have to worry about it, and she can be happy at ease.

It is her blessing that Qingye is capable.

But now, she can't always use "kindness" to coerce Qingye's freedom.

If Qingye wants to leave, she either cannot let him go, or...he can't bear it!

Jiang Jin put the paper in her arms, some clauses in it were as interesting as Qing Ye, and she needed to study it carefully.

The other one is, she was curious about where the money for Qing Ye's preparation came from?
After she finished asking this question, Qing Shan had a smile on his face.

"Young master, you used the money, but the rent of the shop was less."

"Is it a remote location?"

Jiang Jin walked back while talking.

She has dominated the streets for many years, and she knows the rent price of a shop in any location. The silver taels she can use for Qingye is only 200 taels, which is barely enough to rent a shop with a good location.

But if you count decoration, labor and daily expenses, it is not enough.

Only Qingshan continued to say: "It's the haunted shop on East Street."

There was also indescribable joy in his tone.

"East Street?" Jiang Jin was also a little surprised.

There are many and miscellaneous vendors on West Street, but East Street is a gathering place for wealthy households.

She rarely goes there, so she really doesn't know much about haunted shops.

I just listened to Qingshan continue to explain, "It was the murder case that happened the year before last, and this shop has not been able to sell since then."

Jiang Jin was originally surprised why Qingye chose this shop, but after hearing Qingshan's words, he smelled something unusual.

"The year before last?"

She couldn't help frowning, her brain was running fast, remembering that when she first arrived in Anfu County, the whole city didn't feel the tension of a murder case.

"It happened before we got to Uncle's?"

"Yes."

Qingshan said affirmatively, "About this matter, it was also Qingye who found out. The person who died in this shop was from the capital city, but it is not clear which family it was."

His expression also became serious, "The shop owner said that this matter must never be told to you, he doesn't know that you are the boss behind it."

"Absolutely can't tell me?"

The corners of Jiang Jin's mouth froze, "How long?"

She had a strong premonition.

Perhaps, his father's death was not accidental.
