The Second Volume of Case within a Case: The Granary of Heaven Chapter 35: The Wolf in the Courtyard of Nangong Qiuyue

  "Qingya, why don't you let Chunyu Shilang speak properly?" Jia Mingkai chuckled on the side, I coldly smiled: "What qualifications does he have to speak now? He has made such an extreme behavior that let Cold Duke and Madam be humiliated, even if it's true brotherly love, it can't be explained clearly now. So please ask your uncle to take him back to the big prison, let him reflect on his actions. This afternoon, I will go to explain this matter to the Emperor, let's see how the Emperor will decide!"

  Jia Mingkai's face was smiling, but his heart wasn't: "Brotherly love?"

  I glared: "Of course! Otherwise, why would I let Xuanxuan replace me to curry favor with Leng Yueyao?"

  "Is Qingya interested in the Leng family again?"

  Jia Mingkai's words caused a burst of laughter.

  "Madam is indeed elegant and unmatched."

  "It seems that the good things between Leng's family and Feng's family are approaching."

  "Madam's eyes are indeed discerning, Cold Grandmaster is valiant and skilled in battle, strong and robust."

  Ugh... I just thought of my fitness coach. For the sake of this fox, I've completely lost all face and dignity. The good thing about soul-swapping is that others see a calm and elegant person, not me, so I can remain unflappable amidst all these snickers.

  "Plop" went another bird dropping, Jia Shaohua stood in the distance with a proud and complacent smile.

  As long as Leng Yueying doesn't admit it, Chun Yuanshan doesn't admit it, and I don't admit it, even if we're beaten to death, none of us will admit it. In the end, this matter will be nothing. The rumors outside are better than losing our heads.

  Close the door and rumors can't hurt anyone. Time can make people forget. But life, once lost, can never be regained.

  It is hoped that imprisonment will calm Xun Yu down, rather than letting one person's impulsive behavior make a hero out of him, which would only lead to the whole Xun family being implicated. The loss of grain in Qingzhou and the illicit affair in the capital have already caused trouble for the young masters of the Xun family; it is feared that the Xun family will not be able to survive this.

  Chunyu's good friend Leng's family was also one of the parties involved in the adultery case, and it is feared that even if the words of the Cold King were spoken on the court, they would not be able to get any help, with very little power.

  After all the fuss, it turned out that Jia Mingkai was for this purpose. I didn't expect such a trivial matter to affect the reputation of both families. In an ordinary family, if there is an affair, they will be ridiculed and despised by their neighbors.

  And for the wealthy and influential, the impact is even greater, and public sentiment will also be stirred up. Putting myself in their shoes, if I were just an ordinary citizen who didn't know the inside story of the event, when I first heard about this adultery case, I would definitely sneer at it. This is why after the implementation of monogamy, officials who commit adultery have to do so secretly, and once they are exposed, their official positions will not be secure.

  After all, don't underestimate the affair, minor ones just lose face, major ones lose official positions and power. If in our world, it would trigger a cyber war, followed by personal online searches. Chilling, terrifying.

  This is a war of national moral concept triggered by an affair!

  This is going to be a tough battle, I need to prepare well.

  Go find Nangong Qiuyue. After all, know yourself and know your enemy, then you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Something big has happened, we need to ask Xiao Jiu to come out of retirement!

  Nangong Qiuyue

  When I returned to the Guardian's Mansion, my face was ashen. The steward and servants all kept their distance from me. Xiao Ruo just wanted to ask a question when I raised my hand to stop her.

  "Where is Nangong Qiuye?"

  "He... isn't with you?" All along, I had been gentle and courteous, but today my entire body was ablaze, causing Xiao Ruo to also dare not approach me for the time being.

  "Damn it! I'm going to his courtyard!"

  "Second Master's courtyard!" Xiao Ruo exclaimed, rushing in front of me and blocking my way. "You can't go."

  "Why?"

  Xiao Ruo stood in front of me and hesitated for a long time: "Because the Second Master has an order, no one is allowed to enter his courtyard."

  "Anyone? Can't even Xiao Jiu?" I was a bit angry, wasn't I also elegant and refined? But unexpectedly, Xiao Ruo nodded: "This is their gentleman's agreement."

  I was taken aback, but the situation was urgent, and I wanted to see why Nan Gong Qiuxue wasn't "on time" for work today.

  "She hasn't gone so I can't go? Get out of the way!" I pushed Xiao Ruo aside and rushed straight to Nan Gong Qiu Yue's courtyard.

  My heart was racing, half because of the urgency of the matter and half because of tension. Nangong Qiuyue, although he's the man who has been by my side for the most time, I know nothing about him, he maintains his mystery, playing his role: Shadow Palace Person.

  Because of his mysteriousness, I hesitated, and even Feng Qingya couldn't enter the yard. What kind of yard was it? It turned out that Nan Gong Qiuyue also had her own reservations about Feng Qingya. The relationship between these two people is really intriguing.

  Under the guidance of the servant, I fumbled my way to Nan Gong's Autumn Moon room... wait, no, it was the path to the courtyard. But why did it get more and more secluded as I walked?

  Alright, Yuanchen and Chunyu's places are also quite remote, the Huguo Temple is almost as far as Central Park. But Yuanchen's house has a bamboo forest in front of it, Chunyu's courtyard has a peony garden, while Nangong Qiuye's road... becomes increasingly desolate, if I were to walk at night, I would think it's the Yellow Spring Road.

  The trees around me grew taller and darker, the road became increasingly desolate, the weeds grew more luxuriant, and the path was overgrown with fallen leaves. The only small path was finally buried under the leaves, and the knee-high weeds grew wildly. I began to wonder if Nan Gong Autumn Moon actually lived in the Guardian Mansion? That's why he made an agreement with Feng Qingya that she couldn't enter his courtyard privately.

  Finally, after crossing thorns and jumping over potholes, ruining one of my skirts, I found the legendary Nan Gong Qiuxue's courtyard. I was stunned - it was a dilapidated house!

  Impossible! What a scam! Nan Gong Qiuyue, such a refreshing person, wouldn't like to live in such a desolate courtyard. This must be the Cold Palace of the Protectorate Manor.

  However, the servants wouldn't dare deceive me. If it were Xiao Ruo who told me, there might be a possibility that she was teasing me, but the other servants in the Huo Guo Fu would never have the audacity to do so.

  I'm not giving up, half of it is curiosity about this deserted courtyard, even if it's not the courtyard of Nan Gong Qiu Yue, maybe someone lived here before, maybe a concubine who died unjustly? A maid? A prisoner? Or a male favorite? No no no, I've gone off on another wild tangent... sigh... Even an abandoned house can lead me to think about those kinds of things.

  "Ahhh!" A sudden wolf howl dispersed all my fantasies. Suddenly, the cold wind blew, and ghostly shadows fluttered about. Then, a silver figure darted out from within and pounced towards me. I let out a blood-curdling scream: "Ahhh!" and took off running, not even daring to look back at what was chasing me.

  Today's recommendation is a beautiful and lovely Wei Jing's "The Reversal of Fortune"

  Book number: 1130639

  Alas! He didn't have it easy being a human, working as a janitor and getting cheated out of his salary by the government for ten years. And then he encountered an icy prince like Asura and an angel-faced devil.

  Unfortunately, he also encountered a matter of recognizing relatives. If he didn't recognize them, it would be fine, but once he did, he would get a fright. The numerous nephews in the family often needed his guidance and comfort as an elder, while also having to guard against certain wolves eyeing their own tofu, and defend against attacks from external evil forces.

  Is it easy for him to be a human?

  February PK, please advise me, everyone...
