My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 188 - 113 Song Jiaren’s Discovery
Yuan Yang girl came looking for Song Yu, handing him a sachet she had sewn herself.
The two of them were clearly getting on well.
Upon receiving Yuan Yang’s gift, Song Yu lost all desire to sleep, rushing over to Li Nuo to boast, "Yuan Yang girl sewed this for me herself, doesn’t it smell great?"
Although in the past, when he was at school, girls would also secretly give him gifts, Li Nuo was never as smug as Song Yu.
He waved his hand dismissively and said, "Go play somewhere else..."
After Yuan Yang girl left, Phoenix and Nightingale also departed.
Once Phoenix had gone, Li Nuo turned to Song Jiaren and said, "Don’t listen to her nonsense. What’s the use of Qin, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting? They’re all useless things. That time she got slapped, she didn’t even have the strength to fight back. Really, the Martial Path is more reliable..."
Li Nuo always felt that, compared to Qin, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting, girls should learn some self-defense.
That way, they could not only protect themselves but others as well.

Song Jiaren didn’t say anything. After reading for a while and having something on his mind, Li Nuo stood up after a few moments and said, "I have some business to attend to, need to step out."
He walked to the entrance of the Song Residence and said to Housekeeper Wu, "Go to the County Magistrate’s Office."
Meanwhile, in another carriage heading toward the Jade Sound Pavilion.
Nightingale glanced at Phoenix and asked, "Didn’t you say, you can make any man fall at your feet? In the end, you still need Yuan Yang to go about it in a roundabout way to seek him out..."
Phoenix’s face also showed a tinge of gloom upon hearing this.
She had already given him the token of the Jade Sound Pavilion, allowing him to come over for music and dance or for dining and drinking without spending a coin. Yet after his sudden visit last time to mock her Qin Skill, making her cry bitterly, it had been twenty days since he last appeared.
These past few days, people had already started doubting the truth behind the rumors.
Out of helplessness, she could only borrow the excuse of finding Song Yu through Yuan Yang, to once again set foot in the pavilion just to shut those people up.
Nightingale looked at Phoenix and asked, "Can you actually do it?"
Phoenix was seething with anger and retorted, "If you think you can, then go ahead. He seems to fancy you. If you can keep him at the Jade Sound Pavilion, that’ll be your great contribution. Really, I can’t understand why someone would fancy you..."
Nightingale angrily said, "What do you mean by that?"
Phoenix responded sarcastically, "Just what it sounds like..."
The coachman Yuan Yang glanced back and saw that the two inside the carriage were already fighting.
Nightingale’s skirt was hoisted to her waist, revealing slender and fair jade legs, while Phoenix’s bodice was torn open, revealing most of her plump and fair...
The scenery inside the carriage was infinitely enchanting.
At the same time, in the Chang’an County Government.
Not having seen him for a month, County Magistrate Pei looked much healthier than before.
But upon seeing Li Nuo, a clear panic crossed his face.
He hurried forward with a forced smile and said, "Why does young master have the leisure to come here today?"
Pei Zhe was very worried Li Nuo had come to the government office to review a case. They had already been urinating over the heads of the three provinces twice. If this happened again, the son of the Minister of Justice of course would face no consequences, while he might as well pack up and get ready to leave.
After catching up for a while and seeing that Li Nuo didn’t seem to be there for a case review, Pei Zhe relaxed and, remembering something, subtly asked, "Young master, may I inquire about something..."
Li Nuo said, "What’s the matter? Speak."
Pei Zhe looked around and asked in a low voice, "Has the court recently been cracking down on officials consorting with courtesans? I heard that some officials have been arrested because of this. Do you know anything about the inside story?"
As it happened, Li Nuo did know the inside story.
Because he was the one who had made the arrest.
These court officials always liked to chase shadows. The arrest by the Ministry of Justice of Liu Shang was just a coincidence.
The act of officials consorting with courtesans, morally speaking, should certainly be condemned.
Legally, it was also explicitly forbidden.
But in terms of enforcement, the court intentionally left a wide loophole.
If these officials with certain powers could not get their satisfaction through official channels, then surely many decent women would suffer.
From a certain perspective, these officials who frequented brothels were unlikely to be greatly corrupt or villainous.
Li Nuo waved his hand at Pei Zhe and said, "Where did you hear that? There’s no such thing. However, places like that, you should visit less, Lord Pei. Even if the court doesn’t catch you, it wouldn’t be good to catch some disease either..."
After getting confirmation from Li Nuo, Pei Zhe was relieved and then asked with a smile, "You must have come to the Government for something, young master?"
Li Nuo nodded, "I indeed have a matter that I need you to take care of."
Pei Zhe leaned in closer, and Li Nuo whispered a few sentences to him.
After hearing them out, Pei Zhe’s face showed surprise and he asked in puzzlement, "Young master, isn’t Phoenix from the Jade Sound Pavilion your woman? Why would you..."
Li Nuo raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who said she was my woman?"
Pei Zhe glanced at him and said quietly, "That’s what everyone in Chang’an knows..."
Who was the ill-mannered person who spread such rumors, which even Pei Zhe knew about? Thankfully his wife was sensible and hadn’t been deceived.
He waved his hand dismissively and said, "Don’t worry about these matters. If there are no issues with the Jade Sound Pavilion, all the better. But if there are, don’t show favoritism, just handle it as a public matter. The main thing is to bring back Phoenix and one named Nightingale. And don’t forget to be polite to them during the process..."
Pei Zhe looked at Li Nuo, his understanding not quite clear, and nodded his head.
He was aware of the antics of these wealthy young masters.
But he really hadn’t expected such extravagant play.
Was this going to be a hero saving the beauty, or some new role-playing scenario...
...
Jade Sound Pavilion.
After Phoenix returned to her room and looked at herself in the copper mirror, she still couldn’t understand no matter how hard she tried.
