BXBX NOVEL Chapter 37
Yu Niaoniao said, “Just this morning, when Dang Gui and I left the house, we happened to meet Jiang Ze. He was holding a folding fan in his hand. On the fan was a portrait of a beauty, as well as the inscription and signature. It was this signature!” 1
These days, scholars usually wrote their own name.
Shangguan Jue’s name was Scholar Luoshan.
Yu Niaoniao did not know this, so she did not think much about it when she heard others mention Shangguan Jue.
It was only at this moment, when she saw the signature, that she put two and two together.
Xiao Juan stared at her. “Are you sure you’re not mistaken?”
Yu Qianqian said without hesitation, “Definitely!”
Dang Gui stood up for her lady.
“Miss has a very good memory. She can remember anything she’s seen, even if it’s just a glimpse.”
Tired, Xiao Juan sized up Yu Niaoniao as if he was reevaluating her.
It turned out that apart from being gluttonous and greedy, she had other talents.
Yu Niaoniao stroked her chin and pondered.
“Jiang Ze and Yu Sheng are cousins. They usually interact with each other and have a good relationship.
If Jiang Ze had invited Yu Sheng to a wine shop, Yu Sheng probably wouldn’t have refused.
As for why Yu Sheng didn’t tell the truth, it’s very likely to protect his cousin, Jiang Ze.”
Logically, it all made perfect sense.
But crucial evidence was still missing.
Xiao Juan called Meng Xizhou over and asked him to immediately bring Jiang Ze back to the Justice Department for interrogation.
Yu Niaoniao could not help but say, “It’s not appropriate to arrest him without any evidence, right?”
Xiao Juan said coldly, “I only want the truth, not evidence.”
Yu said, “Where’s the truth without evidence?”
“I can tell.”
Yu Niaoniao was speechless.
As expected of the decisive Duke Lang. His methods of handling cases were really simple and crude.
No wonder so many people criticized the Eagle Guards for killing people like flies.
... .
In the Yu Residence, Mrs. Jiang’s heart was in a mess because of her son, but in order to entertain her nephew, she still forced herself to stay awake.
“Ah Ze, why did you suddenly come over today?” 1
In front of the elders, Jiang was exceptionally obedient. 1
“I heard that something had happened to my cousin and was worried, so I specially came to take a look.
A place like the Justice Department was not for humans.
“Aunt, have you thought of any way to save my cousin?If there’s anything I can do to help, let me know. I’ll do my best.”
Seeing that her nephew was so sensible, Mrs. Jiang felt gratified.
“I know you’re close to Sheng and you care about him, but Eagle Guards aren’t people you can offend easily. It’s best if you don’t get involved. As for Sheng... don’t worry, he’s fine for now.”
Jiang was very curious. “How did Auntie know that Cousin is fine now? Did you see him in prison?”
Mrs. Jiang felt that there was nothing to hide from her nephew.
She told him about Yu Niaoniao being allowed into the legal department.
At the end, she laughed at herself.
“Initially, I didn’t think much of that country girl, Yu Niaoniao. However, I didn’t expect that I would have to beg her to do something for me now. What a turn of events.”
Jiang Ze was surprised.
He did not expect her to really be able to speak to Duke Lang.
He’d thought the rumors out there were made up.
Fortunately, he did not offend her too badly just now. Otherwise, it would be difficult to clean up the mess. 4
