Lu Jiao listened to Xie Yunjin’s words and thought for a moment. She thought that his ideas were somewhat correct.

“We must find out who this person is, otherwise it will be troublesome. If we can find this person, we will know who they leaked everything to. We can follow the clues to find out who is behind your assassination. Maybe that person is the breakthrough we are looking for.”

After Lu Jiao finished speaking, she suddenly became interested and said, “Why don’t I go to the Xu family as a guest? Maybe I can help you find that person.”

Xie Yunjin immediately refused, “No, someone is watching us now, we can’t act recklessly.”

Lu Jiao thought for a moment and didn’t say anything. It was indeed risky for her to go to the Xu family, especially since she didn’t have any martial arts skills and didn’t have a bodyguard to protect her. If she went there recklessly, she might be ambushed by the other party.contemporary romance

However, Lu Jiao was very worried about the four little ones, so she decided not to let them step out of the house these days.

On the bed in the room, Xie Yunjin doubted that Lu Jiao listened to what he said. He turned his head and stared deeply at Lu Jiao and confirmed.

“Did you hear what I said? Don’t take risks lightly. You should know that the people behind this are likely to be from the four influential families. Those people are extremely vicious. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.”

Xie Yunjin became more and more worried as he spoke. He didn’t want Lu Jiao to be calculated. If something happened to her, what would he and the four little ones do?

Xie Yunjin continued, “In the case of Luo Xinwu’s murder, we found out that he had a lover who was a girl from Chunhong Pavilion. We captured her and asked her if Luo Xinwu knew anyone’s secrets. That lover obviously knew talking was a taboo and refused to say.”

Xie Yunjin finished speaking and looked at Lu Jiao. Lu Jiao closed her eyes and didn’t say anything, but Xie Yunjin could see her eyelashes fluttering, which meant she was listening.

Xie Yunjin couldn’t help but smile, “But that lover won’t last long sealing her lips. She will definitely confess. The people behind all this are probably getting anxious and will try to kill Luo Xinwu’s lover. Officer Zhao and I have set a trap, and we are waiting for them to fall for it.

“They attempted to assassinate me because the person behind it didn’t want us to continue investigating. Further investigation might reveal the people who know their secrets.”

After Xie Yunjin finished speaking, he suddenly added, “Actually, Luo Xinwu mentioned it to us before, but unfortunately none of us paid attention.”

As soon as Xie Yunjin spoke, Lu Jiao immediately opened her eyes and turned to him. As she turned her head, she saw the man on the bed looking at her with his dark and piercing eyes.

Lu Jiao coughed uncomfortably and asked, “What did he mention?”

“He said that magistrate Hu and his son are fools, and that the Qinghe District government has long been controlled by assistant magistrate Yang and administrator Peng. Without any surprises, he must have obtained evidence of their crimes, blackmailed them, and demanded money from them. Yand and Peng are working for the wealthy families in the Qinghe District – definitely the four wealthy families. They cannot afford to let anything happen to them. Once those people found out that we were investigating this matter, they would resort to assassination to stop us from continuing our investigation.”

After Lu Jiao heard Xie Yunjin’s words, she thought of Luo Xinwu and couldn’t help but show her disgust.

“Luo Xinwu deserved to die. He only knew how to eat, drink, and fool around outside. When he got unhappy, he beat his wife at home. Such a man deserves to be punished by the heavens.”

While thinking, Lu Jiao turned her head to look at Xie Yunjin, “I won’t go to the

Xu family for now. Let’s figure out what’s going on first.”

Xie Yunjin breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn’t want Lu Jiao to get involved in these things.

“Okay.”

On the soft couch, Lu Jiao knew that Xie Yunjin had said so much to her in order to persuade her not to go to the Xu family, fearing that she would be assassinated.

Lu Jiao accepted this and said softly, “Thank you. And thank you on behalf of the people of Qinghe District.”

Everything Xie Yunjin was doing now was beneficial to the people of Qinghe. Only by getting rid of these pests could he convince magistrate Hu to vigorously develop agriculture and make the people prosperous. But if they didn’t get rid of these pests, they would obstruct their plans in every possible way.

Qinghe District is clearly very poor, but those merchants were getting richer at the expense of the people.

Xie Yunjin, lying on the bed due to his injury, was weak. He couldn’t help but laugh softly after he heard Lu Jiao’s words. He really wanted to tell her that it was because of her that he found his positive and sunny side. Her presence had guided him to the light.

However, these words remained in his heart and he didn’t say anything in the end.

One day, he would tell her everything she’s brought to him. He used to be a person with many flaws, but the moments he spent with her made him realize his shortcomings. He worked hard to change them and become a better person.

Lu Jiao didn’t hear any more movement. She got up quietly and walked to the bed to check if Xie Yunjin had a fever by touching his forehead.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she touched his forehead, he grabbed her hand tightly and held it in his.

Lu Jiao was startled and thought he had woken up, but upon closer inspection, she found that he was unconsciously holding her hand in his sleep.

She smiled and gently withdrew her hand, then walked back to the couch.

That night, Xie Yunjin didn’t have a fever, and Lu Jiao was completely relieved. When it was almost dawn, she took Feng Zhi to rest in the back courtyard and instructed Lu Gui to take good care of Xie Yunjin in the front courtyard.

Lu Gui immediately agreed. He had gone through a lot during this period and had become a little more slick and assertive in his dealings with people.

The news of Xie Yunjin’s injury soon spread to a small circle, and many people on good terms with him came to visit, including the Dean and the families of

Hu, Xu, and Tian.

Each family brought generous gifts when they visited.

Lu Jiao instructed Feng Zhi to write down what was given so that in the future, they could reciprocate with similar items.

Feng Zhi had good abilities, and Lu Jiao consciously trained her in social skills. She planned to leave external affairs to Feng Zhi to handle in the future.

In the courtyard, Aunt Qiu took care of Liu An and Liu Fu. Anut Qiu sympathized with the mother and daughter’s situation and treated them with special care.

Liu An used to be Luo Xinwu’s wife and was good at serving him. Now that she was serving Lu Jiao, she fully demonstrated her ability and treated Lu Jiao just as well as she did Luo Xinwu. This made Lu Jiao feel comfortable and at ease.

At first, Lu Jiao was a bit embarrassed, but it made Liu An and her daughter uneasy. Aunt Qiu reminded Lu Jiao that now Liu An was a servant of the Xie family, so if Lu Jiao treated them differently, it would make things awkward for them. Therefore, from then on, she should treat them as servants of the Xie family..
