After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine Chapter 69

Huo Wujiu watched Meng Qianshan run away with his cold eyes on the bed, before he slowly withdrew his gaze and quietly glanced over at Jiang Suizhou.

Jiang Suizhou was so engrossed that he didn't notice Huo Wujiu’s gaze.

His voice wasn't loud. His reading was akin to talking to people, gentle and clear, completely different from usual.

Huo Wujiu's breath unknowingly calmed down.

He didn't expect that a leisure book, read by Jiang Suizhou, would be much more useful than the mantra.

The content of the travelogue was actually not interesting. A literary man with nothing better to do than to run around and play, wrote some leisure books to record his insights.

But Jiang Suizhou seemed to be quite interested in it. Even he himself did not notice how vivid his eyes were when he was reading.

The corners of his lips were also curled up, looking quite delighted.

Huo Wujiu's gaze paused for a moment. Then, he turned away and slowly closed his eyes.

He hated reading books, not only because he was too lazy to read the words, but also because he was disinterested in the contents of those written, all together.

But at this time, when he closed his eyes, the clear voice seemed to have become a flowing and clear river, flowing through Bashu and Huguang recorded by the literati, and sparkling under the thousands of miles of sunshine.

He seemed fond of those things.

For some reason, it also gave Huo Wujiu an impulse.

He wanted to make those things that Jiang Suizhou liked all belong to him.

He was like a secular person who had finally been canonised and had finally become a believer of God and Buddha.

This gave him the urge to kneel before the statue of God, wanting to offer all the wealth and treasures that belonged to him and those that didn't belong to him, all together to God.

Jiang Suizhou stayed in the room until nightfall.

He naturally had dinner with Huo Wujiu before getting up to leave.

Seeing that he and Huo Wujiu were getting along quite well, Meng Qianshan stepped forward astutely and asked with a smile, "Will Your Highness still come tomorrow?"

Jiang Suizhou stopped in his tracks and couldn't help but look at Huo Wujiu.

He actually wanted to come. These days, he was pretending to be sick and resting at home, so he didn't have to go anywhere. Hence, he was very idle. Huo Wujiu had just started treating his legs this while, and according to that doctor, the pain he suffered today would persist for another month. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Jiang Suizhou was a little uneasy.

Perhaps because he was too afraid of death before, it made him develop the habit of putting Huo Wujiu first in everything. It made him a bit unable to change over for a while.

Huo Wujiu raised his eyes and met Jiang Suizhou's gaze.

"You don't need to ask for my opinion," Huo Wujiu stilled for a second and said somewhat awkwardly.

Meng Qianshan's face lit up with joy, and before Jiang Suizhou could speak, he smiled and exclaimed, "Oh! Then this servant will arrange for someone to pack up and bring all the books and official documents that Your Highness wants to read to Madam Huo!"

Jiang Suizhou glanced at him.

He saw Meng Qianshan smiling and saying, "Perfect! I also think that Madam Huo's light here is better than that of the Prince's study. It's only right for His Highness to bask more in the sun!"

This kid was so enthusiastic, but it saved Jiang Suizhou a lot of trouble.

He did not refute. And as a tacit acknowledgement, he hummed and got up to leave.

That night, a letter was delivered to Jiang Suizhou's room.

It was sent by Xu Du. The scouts he had arranged in Changle Square sent back news that the officials of the Ministry of Justice had mapped out the location and would be raiding the residence in the next two days.

As early as they made this plan, they knew that because Chen Ti had invited Huo Wujiu to the flower viewing banquet last time, he had quite a face in front of the Hou Zhu. Thus, he landed a cushy job these days and was right in the middle of work in Suzhou.

The only person in the house now was the woman he was keeping there. She was a woman from the brothel, so she most probably would get caught in front of the Hou Zhu in the next two days.

Jiang Suizhou finished reading the letter, pondered for a moment and smiled.

According to the historical records in his memory, although Chen Ti apparently flattered Pang Shao, he actually had some small selfish schemes. Pang Shao was greedy for money, and even his men couldn't escape his scavenging. Therefore, Chen Ti's house was unknown even to Pang Shao.

In that case, when the Ministry of Justice closed the net, that mansion, along with the woman from the brothel, would be the first to be counted on Jiang Suizhou's head.

Thereafter, the Hou Zhu would definitely investigate deeper. This case was also bound to be a huge trouble for him.

By then...they only had to wait for them to use their own spear and attack their own shield.

Jiang Suizhou felt that there was a good show waiting for him to see. His mood lifted, and even after putting the letter away properly, his expression remained pleasant.

Meng Qianshan, who peeked at him, tsked inwardly.

Normally, when the Prince was dealing with official business, had there ever been a moment where he was so carefree and even smiled at a secret letter?

What could be funny when the secret letter was full of important matters?

The Prince must have been distracted while reading the letter and thought of Madam Huo.

With this belief, Meng Qianshan sneaked a peek at Jiang Suizhou as he withdrew from his bedroom and smirked.

His smirk was rather ambiguous.

The author has something to say:

Jiang Suizhou: What are you smiling at?

Meng Qianshan: I thought of something happy :D
