Chapter 295: The Poisonous Woman, She's Greedy for My Body
Zhenweihou Mansion!
Jiang Beiyu asked his servants to bring a wine jug and a red clay stove.
"Green ants and new wine, a small red clay stove, the sky is about to snow in the evening, can you have a drink?"
Jiang Beiyu recited softly, this poem also came from Dahan Trading Company, and it was this poem that made him notice Dahan Trading Company.
Dahan Trading Company has a type of wine called Late Green Ant Wine.
At Kelaiju, a storyteller introduced this wine. It was said that there was a scholar named Bai who was traveling on a cold day. He came across a farmhouse on the way. Seeing that it was getting dark, he asked the owner of the farmhouse for a place to stay, and the owner gladly agreed.
It happened that at this moment there was a pot of homemade wine warming on a small red clay stove in the farmhouse owner's house. The scholar surnamed Bai was caught in the cold wind while on the road, and his whole body was cold and stiff. The farmhouse owner asked the scholar surnamed Bai if he wanted to drink a glass of wine to warm his stomach.
After drinking a glass of wine, the scholar surnamed Bai felt a heat current flowing through his internal organs. They began to become warm and expelled the coldness from his body.
After the scholar surnamed Bai expelled the coldness, he suddenly got inspiration and wrote this poem.
The appearance of this poem has led to a surge in sales of this Green Ant Wine, which now ranks first in sales among Kelaiju’s many wines.
The most expensive wine in Kelaiju is Maotai, which is strong and mellow, but not everyone likes it because it is too strong. However, Green Ant Wine is not strong, it tastes warm when it enters the stomach, and there is a warm feeling when the wine enters the stomach.
Especially in the cold winter, the sales volume of Green Ant Wine is unique. Sitting around the fire, watching the snow scene, and warming up a pot of Green Ant Wine has become the favorite thing to do for many literati and even some warriors.
"Once we take over the Dahan Trading Company, we will promote this Green Ant Wine to every county in the world. Our company will surely become the top trading company in the world."
Jiang Beiyu was already imagining how to expand the business of the company after taking over the company.
Although the current Dahan Trading Company is also one of the four major trading companies, because the Dahan Trading Company is just a trading company, officials in some counties of some states do not allow the Dahan Trading Company's wine to be sold.
But if Dahan Trading Company was in his hands, there would be no such problem.
In terms of power, he is the son-in-law of the emperor and was conferred the title of Marquis Zhenwei by the emperor.
In terms of strength, he has tens of thousands of troops under his command, and with the support of Zhenwu Palace behind him, he is not afraid of any force.
When the wine was half heated, footsteps were heard at the door.
Jiang Beiyu stood up with a smile on his face and said, "My two brothers came back a little early, the wine is not yet..."
The conversation stopped abruptly.
The figure standing at the door was not his eldest or third senior brother, but a strange man he did not recognize.
He is handsome and elegant, just like jade.
Jiang Beiyu, who considered himself a handsome man, had to admit in his heart that this person was more beautiful than him.
"Who are you?"
"Can't you guess who I am? Didn't you warm the wine for me?"
Lin Ye looked at Jiang Beiyu meaningfully. Jiang Beiyu was startled, as if he had thought of something, and said, "You..."
"Me what?"
"This wine is indeed warmed for your Excellency."
Jiang Beiyu suppressed the shock in his heart and the words he was about to say, and made a gesture of invitation.
If it was really as he thought, that the eldest and third brothers had already been defeated by this person, then he was definitely not a match for the man in front of him.
Lin Ye didn't hesitate to step into the living room and sat down opposite Jiang Beiyu beside the fireplace.
"Green ant new wine, red clay stove... It seems that Marquis Zhenwei likes this green ant wine very much."
Jiang Beiyu had no idea what Lin Ye was trying to say, so he just went ahead and said, "I really like this Green Ant Wine."
Lin Ye did not say anything. Instead, he reached out and took the wine jug, shook it a few times, and then just looked at it quietly.
Seeing that Lin Ye didn't speak, Jiang Beiyu hesitated for a moment and said, "Lin..."
Shh!
Lin Ye put his index finger between his lips, signaling Jiang Beiyu not to speak.
Jiang Beiyu had no choice but to swallow back the words he had just prepared. He didn't have the courage to provoke the person in front of him.
After a cup of tea, Lin Ye looked at the wine pot and said, "It's going to snow in the evening, can I have a drink? Since Marquis Zhenwei likes this wine, let's drink it."
Lin Ye handed the wine jug directly to Jiang Beiyu, who hesitated for a moment before taking it.
He wants to speak.
"drink!"
Lin Ye's sudden thunder-like voice made him tremble all over, and at the same time his face was filled with rage. As a marquis and a disciple of the Zhenwu Palace, when had anyone dared to speak to him so loudly?
However, after making eye contact with Lin Ye, Jiang Beiyu felt an inexplicable chill in his heart. Lin Ye's eyes were too calm, so calm that it scared him.
It's just drinking, why would I be afraid of it?
After comforting himself, Jiang Beiyu picked up the wine jug and took a gulp.
boom!
Jiang Beiyu's eyes widened in disbelief, and his throat felt as if it was being cut by a knife.
This wine is too hot.
It could burn him, a warrior at the Jingzhe realm.
Subconsciously, Jiang Beiyu wanted to spit out the remaining wine in his mouth, but before he opened his mouth, Lin Ye's voice came faintly.
"Nineteen shopkeepers of the Dahan Commercial Bank died. If one of them drank one sip of wine, the Marquis would go and pay for their lives."
This sentence made Jiang Beiyu close his mouth again. He did not doubt the truthfulness of Lin Ye's words. Since the other party dared to come to Qingzhou, and even the eldest brother and the third brother were not his opponents, then he really could do what he said.
Jiang Beiyu forced himself to swallow the wine, and regardless of the pain in his throat, he took three more gulps.
Originally, he wanted to drink nineteen mouthfuls in one breath, and the discomfort would only be temporary, but he overestimated himself. After three mouthfuls of wine, his body could no longer bear it.
His chest felt so hot that it seemed to be torn apart, and blood was already oozing from his nostrils. A dozen hot blisters instantly formed on his lips.
"Dirty...Yoya..."
Jiang Beiyu wanted to tell Lin Ye that he was willing to compensate the nineteen shopkeepers and give their families enough silver, hoping that it could offset the remaining fifteen sips of wine.
But when he opened his mouth he found that he could no longer speak clearly because his tongue was also covered with blood blisters.
"There are still fifteen. My Lord, please continue."
Lin Ye looked at Jiang Beiyu indifferently. Jiang Beiyu lowered his head and looked at the wine jug, with resentment flashing in his eyes. He swore that when he escaped this disaster, no matter what the cost, he would let his great-grandmaster capture Lin Ye.
When his uncle-master cripples Lin Ye, he will make Lin Ye suffer all the tortures in the world.
Jiang Beiyu had to bear this hatred for revenge.
Five, six, seven...
After nineteen mouthfuls.
Jiang Beiyu looked like a bloody man, with blood constantly flowing out of his five orifices, staining his entire body.
I...I persevered.
The little bit of consciousness he had left began to recover the moment he realized he had finished drinking nineteen sips.
There was excitement in Jiang Beiyu's eyes as he looked towards Lin Ye.
"The revenge of the 19 shopkeepers of my Dahan Trading Company has ended, but the Marquis wants to seize the trading company, and this revenge has not yet been settled."
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Jiang Beiyu's mouth. Lin Ye did not move, but the chair under him moved backwards to avoid the blood arrow.
Jiang Beiyu’s eyes widened with anger, and the next moment he fell backwards.
He had only a little bit of consciousness left. When he realized that he had been tricked by Lin Ye and had suffered such torture in vain, and that it was he who had inflicted it, he could no longer hold back his anger and died instantly.
"Who are you and how dare you harm my husband!"
Just as Jiang Beiyu fell to the ground and Lin Ye stood up and prepared to leave, a woman walked out from behind the screen at the side of the hall.
The woman first glanced at Jiang Beiyu lying on the ground, and when she saw Lin Ye's face, a light flashed in her eyes.
The woman was stunningly beautiful, and she walked gracefully and seductively.
"I am Princess Changning. If you can't give me a reason for harming my husband, I will inform my father and have you arrested."
Princess Changning, the third daughter of the current emperor, is the one that Jiang Beiyu married.
"Princess, aren't you afraid that I will kill you too?"
"Kill me, Master Lin, do you think you can keep the secret? Master Lin came to Qingzhou openly. If the Marquis dies, and I die too, then my father will naturally guess who the murderer is."
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes. Princess Changning's words had already shown that she also knew what Jiang Beiyu had done.
"Although Jiang Beiyu and I are husband and wife, we don't have any love between husband and wife. It's just that Jiang Beiyu saved my life, and then Jiang Beiyu proposed to my father. Because of the grace of saving my life, I didn't reject Jiang Beiyu."
"The princess told me all this because she wanted to tell me that she does not intend to avenge him."
"I married him to repay his life-saving grace. Moreover, he has used my name to do many evil things over the years. I am also aware of what he did to the Dahan Commercial Bank. Master Lin killed him, and he deserved to die."
This time, Lin Ye was really shocked by Princess Changning. It was her husband who died, but she could actually say that he deserved to die.
"However, Jiang Beiyu is my husband after all, and the royal family's reputation cannot be jeopardized. If Master Lin wants to resolve this matter, or even make further progress for the Han Commercial Bank, he only needs to agree to one condition of my palace."
"What conditions?" Lin Ye asked.
"My husband is dead, so I have to find a new one. As long as Master Lin is willing to be my consort, I will talk to my father. I can also convince Master Xu of Zhenwu Palace not to retaliate against Master Lin."
Princess Changning threw Lin Ye a seductive look after she finished speaking, but Lin Ye got goosebumps from the way she looked at him.
This is a vicious woman.
As soon as her husband died, she was thinking about finding someone to take over, and she wanted to find the person who killed her husband.
"Mr. Lin, what do you think of this condition? I promise to treat you differently from how I treated Jiang Beiyu. I treated Jiang Beiyu only to repay the favor, but I have a secret crush on you."
Lin Ye felt a little ashamed. This woman was not only a vicious woman, but also a female wanderer.
"No need, I cannot bear the princess's affection."
Princess Changning didn't expect Lin Ye to refuse, her face darkened: "Mr. Lin would rather face the pursuit of Zhenwu Palace and my royal family than watch the Dahan Commercial Bank being raided. Once I tell my father the news, it will be too late for Mr. Lin to regret it."
"Whether or not I will regret it is my own business, but I'm afraid the princess won't be able to see it."
As soon as Lin Ye said this, Princess Changning's expression changed immediately. As a member of the royal family, she understood the meaning of Lin Ye's words at the first moment.
"Forest……"
call out!
A flash of sword light passed by, and Princess Changning's head fell off her neck. A stream of blood spurted out, and after a few breaths, her body fell on Jiang Beiyu's corpse.
"Since I saved your life, you should be my husband and wife in the underworld."
A few minutes later, flames burst out from the Zhenwei Marquis Mansion. In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire Zhenwei Marquis Mansion was engulfed in fire.
The people and government officials in the city were alarmed, and a large number of soldiers and officers came to put out the fire. However, there were too many buildings in the Zhenwei Marquis Mansion, and the water they brought was just a drop in the bucket.
Lin Ye stood on the fourth floor of Kelai Restaurant, which was a street away from the Zhenwei Marquis Mansion. He looked down at the Zhenwei Marquis Mansion engulfed in flames and whispered, "I have done what I should do. Now it's up to you, An Zisheng."
…
…
There is a high mountain ten miles outside Qingzhou city. It has numerous terraces and pavilions, and countless buildings. Even in the dark night, there are lights everywhere, which look like winding light belts from afar.
This is the main hall of Qingzhou Zhenwu Temple.
"Second Uncle, the eldest and third brothers were killed on the official road. The Zhenwei Marquis Mansion of the sixth brother suddenly caught fire tonight. The entire mansion was burned clean. The sixth brother also died in the fire."
In the Zhenwu Hall, an old man's face suddenly changed when he heard the words of the middle-aged man who hurriedly walked in: "How is Princess Changning?"
“He also died in the fire.”
The old man's expression suddenly became extremely ugly. The middle-aged man saw the expression of his uncle's master, and his face looked a little strange. The uncle did not ask about the eldest and third brothers, but instead cared about Princess Changning. Could it be that there was some secret about Princess Changning that he didn't know?
"Uncle Master, according to my investigation, the murderer is most likely Lin Ye, the owner of Dahan Trading Company."
"As the owner of a business, tell me the details of the situation."
A few minutes later, after listening to the middle-aged man's story, the old man had a puzzled look on his face. "The owner of a business company actually has a realm comparable to the Great Perfection of the Jingzhe Realm. Instruct all disciples not to go out in the next few days. In addition, you must immediately send a message to the headmaster to inform him of the situation here and ask him to come back as soon as possible after dealing with the situation at Nanjiang Gate."
"Not allowed to go out?"
The middle-aged man was really shocked. After listening to his uncle's arrangement, was he afraid of Lin Ye?
How is this possible? Not to mention that the uncle-master has reached the great perfection of the Jingzhe realm, there is also the great uncle-master in charge of the hall.
How could he be afraid of someone who has reached the Great Perfection of the Jingzhe Realm?
"Just go if I tell you to. There must be a reason why Master arranged this."
The old man glared at the middle-aged man, who lowered his head in disappointment and quickly walked out of the hall. After the middle-aged man walked out, the old man paced in place anxiously.
"Why at this time? Could it be that the news has been leaked?"
