The Second Male is Dedicated To His Career

Yuan Pei looked at Yuan Wuji, and did not know how the eldest son grew up to be so rebellious?

But I have to say that Yuan Wuji really pinched Yuan Pei's weakness.

Although today's sage seems to be gentle, and even the early court seldom expresses opinions, but every time the sage makes a move, a group of officials will be unlucky.

Yuan Pei was really afraid that the next unlucky person would be his turn.

Being an official now is really not as free as it was in the time of the late emperor.

Yuan Pei thought for a while, and finally said, "Okay, you have grown up too. My father will talk to your Aunt Zhang and ask her to sort out and return the things your mother left to you."

"Then father must let Aunt Zhang count carefully. Those gold and silver jewelry are my mother's relics. My son doesn't want to see other people wearing my mother's things!"

It is naturally impossible for Yuan Pei to return the relics of the Lord of Lin County to Yuan Wuji, and it is all money. He responded with a mouthful of words, but only perfunctory Yuan Wuji first, and then went to discuss with Zhang.

Yuan Pei felt that he had to let Yuan Wuji get married first. The reason why his son refused to accept the discipline was because he was undecided. When he got married, he would know the importance of Yuan's family to him.

The more Yuan Pei thought about it, the more rational he became. He dragged Mrs. Zhang to say which girl in the capital would be suitable for his son and would bring the greatest benefits to their original family.

Seeing Yuan Pei's enthusiasm for the untraceable marriage, Zhang's family felt a sense of crisis.

Now she can feel that Yuan Pei's heart is beginning to be biased. If Yuan Wuji really married a strong wife who can help him, would the Yuan family still have the position of their mother and son?

At this time, Mrs. Zhang finally remembered her daughter. Although Zhang's favorite is still her son, and only the son is her biggest reliance, but when she is unanimous, she still has to call her daughter back.

And...that dead old woman.

In the death of Princess Lin, she was not the only one who contributed, but the old woman also contributed a lot.

Now that Yuan Wuji is back, if he really gains the power to control the Yuan family, it is impossible for him not to pursue the matter back then. These things, Zhang's heart couldn't be clearer.

Yuan Pei was still talking about which girl would be suitable, but Mrs. Zhang just agreed absentmindedly, not knowing where her mind had gone.

Yuan Wuji felt a little tired, so he went back to his residence after drinking the medicine and was ready to sleep.

He had only lived in this place for two days, and it was already filled with the smell of medicine. Yuan Wuji thought so, and suddenly felt that something was wrong...

It only adds up to two nights. This medicine smell...isn't it too strong?

It's like, to cover up other flavors.

Yuan Wuji sniffed carefully with his nose, and really smelled a strange smell, which seemed to be... the smell of sulfur.

Because the smell of medicine in the house is so strong that it is easy for people to ignore this smell.

Brimstone... Are you trying to use brimstone to lure snakes out?

Yuan Wuji didn't make any noise, he let the killers come out and searched the inside and outside of this small courtyard.

It didn't take long before he found sulfur from under his bed, and a poisonous snake not far away in a cage that wasn't too tight.

"Ah! This, who is this vicious!"

Mao Mao looked at the poisonous snake spitting out the letter, and fell to the ground in fright.

Compared to Maomao's fear, Yuan Wuwei seemed very calm, even calmer than the killers.

Several killers of the Blood Alliance looked at him in surprise, thinking to themselves, this must be a ruthless character, if it wasn't for his physical weakness, he really wanted to join him as a killer.

Alas, it's a pity not to be a killer.

"Do you know who put it in?"

"I don't know, we have always followed you, Young Master Yuan."

A killer replied.

They received Yuan Wuji's money, so they all followed Yuan Wuji's side to protect them.

These killers are good at killing people, but they really have no experience in protecting people, let alone staying here to protect a room. It doesn't exist, it's unexpected!

The killers don't know, Yuan Wuji has nothing to be disappointed about, and they probably know who it is by guessing.

Yuan Pei still had this unrealistic idea of ​​him, thinking that he would care about the relationship between father and son, at least for the time being he didn't want to kill him.

The old lady and Mrs. Zhang are probably about the same. They are both old people. It is estimated that he will not be able to help himself as soon as he comes back. And maybe they are just like Yuan Pei, thinking about what else they can get from him, so they can't wait so impatiently.

Those servants probably didn't have the guts to do it, at least they didn't dare to do it without the master's order.

Then it's obvious who did it.

Yuan Xiyuan...his good brother.

Yuan Xiyuan has been spoiled by the Yuan family for a long time, and he has done a lot of evil things but has never been punished. Now Yuan Wuji, the big brother who suddenly appeared, caused him to break three fingers as soon as he came back. , It was another humiliation in the morning. Yuan Xiyuan wanted revenge and wanted Yuan Wuji to disappear, which was normal.

Yuan Wuji has no objection to Yuan Xiyuan's approach, but since he wants to kill him, he should do more to leave no trace. Now that he has discovered it, he must be prepared to be counter-killed. get ready.

Yuan Wuji didn't make a sound, but asked the killer to go to Yuan Xiyuan and set it up as it was.

All the sulfur and poisonous snakes were returned to Yuan Xiyuan.

As for what will happen to Yuan Xiyuan in the end, it depends on whether the poisonous snake he finds is powerful enough.

As soon as they heard Yuan Wuxi's instructions, the killers finally raised some spirits.

For killers like them who are used to killing people, protecting people is really a rather boring thing. If Yuan Wuji gave a little less, they would leave immediately...

Now that they received such a task, they really wanted to replace the snake to kill Yuan Xiyuan.

Of course, the killers restrained their urges.

After Mao Mao cleaned the whole house, Yuan Wuji was finally able to sleep. He slept well this night, and when he woke up the next day, both Fu Bo and Xiao Tan had returned.

When Yuan Wuji washed up and finished his breakfast, Fu Bo came over with a pile of thick ledger books.

"Sir, this is the account book of the county lord's dowry that year."

Looking at the thick book, Yuan Wuji knew that County Lord Lin had a lot of dowry back then, and Yuan Shi only had a few shops in the south of the Yangtze River, which shows how much the Yuan family had embezzled.

Yuan Wuji casually looked around, and the shops in the capital were run by Yuan's family... Well, they lost money every year.

All I can say is... In doing business, I have to lose like a mother.

Fu Bo pointed to another stack of books and said: "These are the books of each shop. I have sorted out the books that need your son to make a decision and written them on the top book. The shop is not a big problem, only the bookstore's business is worse. , In the past, the book written by the master sold very well, accounting for the majority of the bookstore’s profits, but recently, the son has not published a new book, and the bookstore’s income has been affected to some extent.”

Yuan Wuji: "..."

good guy! Yuan Wuji really didn't expect Yuan Shen to write novels before. He thought about it, and he seemed to have a writing skill. It can't be used to increase his proficiency.

Oh yes, he also has a skill for collecting money...

Then he has to take a good look at these accounts and try to make the business bigger.

Yuan Wuji has always been very interested in starting a career and improving his skills.

With that in mind, he began to flip through the ledger.

Fubo is really capable. Perhaps considering Yuan Wuji's poor health, he organized everything very well, and Yuan Wuji didn't seem to have any difficulty.

However, there are really many shops in Yuan Wuji's hands, and he can't read them all in a short time. He took a general look, wrote down some important things, then put down the ledger and looked at Xiao Tan.

As soon as he received Yuan Wuji's look, Xiao Tan immediately answered.

"Master, I have received a lot of news from Qianji Pavilion. The original mansion is indeed not clean. From the old lady of the original family to the young master of the original family, they have more or less lives on their hands, but many things are old. Now, there are very few information clues. Ask the son over there if you want to investigate further."

Xiao Tan recounted all the information he got from Qianji Pavilion. The Yuan family really is...

Yuan Xiyuan's evil is on the surface, but Yuan Xiyuan is so young and can teach such a son, it is impossible for Yuan Pei and Zhang to be okay.

Even if Zhang Shi blindly covered up, Yuan Pei was not without problems, he was just hiding behind his back, and his hypocrisy was even more annoying.

"What about the idle king? Between him and the eldest princess..."

"On the surface, King Xian and the eldest princess don't seem to have much connection, but in fact, the two are quite close, especially after the death of King Xian's biological mother, Concubine Shu..."

Yuan Wuji rubbed his knuckles while listening to Xiao Tan's words. He suddenly asked, "When did Concubine Shu die?"

"I went to the time of the late emperor. At that time, the county owner hadn't married Mr. Yuan."

"Does Concubine Shu only have one son of King Xian?"

"Yes, Concubine Shu gave birth to three princesses before. She is not very favored when she is old. Pregnant with the Xian Wang should be her last chance."

Yuan Wuji nodded, then it made sense.

Yuan Wuji was still waiting to ask more questions, and a servant came to report that it was the master who invited the eldest son to come over.

Yuan Wuji looked at the little servant, and only after seeing that the little servant was uncomfortable did he open his mouth and say, "Let's lead the way."

Yuan Wuji wanted to see what Yuan Pei had done with him, but when he approached the main courtyard where Yuan Pei and the others lived, Yuan Wuji heard the woman's mournful cry.

"Yuaner! Yuaner! You must not be in trouble! If you go to your mother, you will not live!"

This voice, at first listen, is Zhang's.

Sharp and harsh.

The expression on Yuan Wuji's face did not change in the slightest. Mrs. Zhang was crying so much, then at least Yuan Xiyuan was still alive.

Yuan Wuji didn't care about Yuan Xiyuan's life or death, even if he survived now, when the charges against him came out, it probably wouldn't be much better.

However, Yuan Wuji appeared so indifferently, which immediately stimulated Mrs. Zhang.

She rushed over crying and was about to grab Yuan Wuji. At this moment, her hair was loose, her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked like a crazy woman.

"It's you! It's all you broom star! As soon as you came back, I had an accident three times! You must have hurt him!"

It has to be said that Zhang's inference has no basis, but the result is not much different.

When Mrs Zhang rushed towards Yuan Wuji, her sharp fingernails aimed at Yuan Wuji.

Zhang Shi is full of anger now, and she needs to vent the anger in her heart.

Yuan Wuji measured his body slightly, hid behind Yuan Pei, and then... Zhang's nails caught Yuan Pei's face.

Zhang Shi originally rushed over with all his strength and wanted to scratch Yuan Wuji's face, but now it's good, Yuan Pei's old face was scratched by her, and blood seeped out all at once.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

Yuan Pei pushed Zhang Shi away with annoyance in his eyes.

The reason why he was willing to marry Mrs. Zhang to fill the house, except that he was a cousin from his mother's family, was because Mrs. Zhang was gentle and caring, full of eyes full of him, and worshipped him, which was completely different from the independent Lord Lin. . The vanity of Yuan Pei's man has been greatly satisfied by Zhang, and this is what he likes most about Zhang.

But look at what Zhang's has become now?

Just like a bitch!

The disgust in Yuan Pei's eyes has not been concealed at all.

"My son isn't dead yet, why are you crying?"

Being yelled at by Yuan Pei, Mrs Zhang regained a little sense of reason, she looked at Yuan Pei aggrievedly, with a cry in her voice: "But the doctor said, Yuan Er... the snake venom spreads all over the body, I'm afraid it will be difficult to even stand up in the future. ."
