Chapter 228: The Third Bracelet
The little maid lived in a small house at the outermost of a row of lower rooms in Bancheng Villa. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The lower room is located on the south side of the Banshan Hot Spring, a row of houses built along the north exterior wall of the Zhou Mansion, out of the gate of the Zhou Mansion in the Bancheng Villa, and turn east along the main road.
The little maid's room, the outermost one in this row of lower rooms, is at most half a room, the other maids are all living together, only this little maid, with a withdrawn temperament, can't get along with others, so she was arranged to live in this hut that was used to pile up sundries.
Now, this hut with only one bed, a few and one cupboard is full of people inside and out. Inside the room are Zhou Sinian, Chen Xianren and Ruyun, and outside are a group of guards, as well as the steward of Bancheng Villa. didn't report Jing Zhaoyi, Zhou Sinian didn't want his family to be ugly.
The corpse Zhou Sinian and Chen Xianren had been examined together, and now they were lying quietly on the bed covered with a white cloth. The little maid's family is far away in Sun City, ready to wait for the dust to settle and follow the coffin of the dream and transport it back together.
In this room, the most conspicuous thing is not the corpse, but the ivory bracelet on the desk. Only half of the bracelet remained, but I still recognized it at a glance because of its unique pattern.
But Rumeng is dead. I was chilling, looking at this bracelet, and I felt inexplicably ghostly. "How did this bracelet come here?"
Ruyun said: "This is what this dead girl is holding in her hands, as if she was dragged from her killer." ”
The cold breath in my heart was even heavier, and I couldn't help but start to tremble, Mu Qing hugged me and said, "Madame, don't be so afraid, we gave a pair of bracelets to the little aunt and sister, Aunt Rumeng is wearing it, but Mengru is not necessarily, and it may not be given to anyone." ”
Zhou Sinian nodded, comforted me and said: "Mu Qing is right, even if Mengru's string is gone, now this bracelet is also given to people like a dream." Let someone take Liu'er, she should know the whereabouts of these things like dreams. ”
But I was still terrified, because I knew that there were three such bracelets.
After a while, Liu'er brought it, she already knew the purpose of letting her come, and when she came in, she cried when she saw the ivory carving bracelet on the desk.
Zhou Sinian couldn't hear these cries, and interrupted her impatiently: "Don't cry, tell me where the two bracelets that my wife gave to my aunt have gone now?" ”
Liu'er reluctantly held back her crying and said: "Mengru's one, she wore it herself, and there is another one, my aunt has been wearing it, and then my aunt was locked in Evian, she didn't want this bracelet anymore, she wanted to throw it away, but Granny Yu didn't let her throw it." Let my aunt be more patient when she encounters trouble. This morning, the emperor wanted to give his aunt death, and before the aunt left, she took off this bracelet and gave it to her mother-in-law, saying, you let me endure it, and now I finally endure the result! This bracelet, when the slave and maid last saw it, was in the hands of the mother-in-law, and later the mother-in-law gave it to someone or threw it away, and the slave and maid did not know. ”
Zhou Sinian's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he asked Chen Xianren, "Are you hungry?" The princess ordered someone to bring you food, and I asked them to set it up in the dining room, let's go eat together, I'm hungry. ”
Chen Xianren asked, "Who is Granny Jade?" Why is it that at the mention of her, Guogong is hungry? ”
Zhou Sinian walked up to Chen Xianren, grabbed his arm without saying anything, and said, "Talking while eating, I'm so hungry that I can't stand it," he turned to me and said, "You can accompany Chen Yuan's judgment together." ”
I sighed to myself, yesterday was like a dream, and today I look at Zhou Sinian's appearance, I don't want to implicate Granny Yu no matter what. This old lady with bad legs and feet really doesn't look like someone who can strangle this young girl.
Thinking of this, I don't want to check it anymore, the bracelet, not only Rumeng, I also have one, that bracelet, in my daughter Xiaoyun. That Xiaoyun who was called "demon" by Lin Chenghong. But this four-year-old child could not strangle the little maid who was ten years older than herself and so much taller, and she couldn't even reach someone's neck......
I said to Chen Xianren: "Granny Yu is an old man with inconvenient legs and feet, Brother Xianren, don't be too nervous, Brother Nian is not in good health, let's go eat." ”
Zhou Sinian heard me say this, smiled at me gratefully, and said to Chen Xianren: "Chen Yuanju, you don't need to stare at it like this, the princess is my wife, the mother of my five children, whoever wants to harm her, I will definitely be the first not to agree." ”
Chen Xianren then followed us into the dining room. The dining room of Bancheng Villa is simple and simple, whether it is furnishings or meals, it is very suitable for Chen Xianren's appetite. I had already eaten, so I told Mu Qing to bring the honey I was used to eating and eating it casually to talk to them.
Chen Xianren was so surprised when he heard me say that the honey was prepared by my four-year-old adopted daughter, and he even called out to the prodigy to see Xiaoyun. I smiled and said: "Where is there a prodigy, it was Brother Nian who taught her, and the child is worthy of me to eat, so that I can feel her filial piety to eat it, it was very uncomfortable to eat at first, but now it is much better." ”
Chen Xianren looked at Zhou Sinian apologetically: "Xiaguan is a little abrupt today, and I hope that Guogong will not be surprised." Xiaguan and the princess have been very close since childhood, why did you hear that the princess was drowning...... The little brother last night, the lower official saw that he was really anxious, and carried the subordinate all the way around the night patrol, and his kung fu was good. The lower officials saw him being punished and kneeling, he was loyal, and the prince of the country should not blame him. ”
I was amazed and asked, "Who?" Why punish him for kneeling? ”
Zhou Sinian said: "I don't know, the guards are all under Zhou Tong's control, let him come and say hello." ”
I sneered, "No need to ask, it's Abin." It was Zhou Yang who punished him for kneeling. I just said yesterday that you are not allowed to bully him, and today I will punish him for kneeling, do you want to punish me for kneeling? Straight to the point. ”
Zhou Sinian said to Chen Xianren with a wry smile: "Judge Chen, now do you understand how your princess punished me?" A little guard was punished to kneel, and that can be counted on my head as well. ”
Chen Xianren actually smiled very sympathetically and sympatheticly: "Hehe...... Women, all like this...... Wouldn't you be a man if you didn't? ”
Zhou Sinian smiled: "Shenglan, tell me what's going on, I will definitely be angry for you." ”
When I looked at him, my heart softened first, and I said angrily: "It's not your fault, you know that I am behind you, and you don't wait for me, the road is so difficult to walk, I almost can't get down, thanks to the little guard named Abin, who carried me down." ”
Zhou Sinian interjected with a smile: "Zhou Mansion has such a good guard? Yes, this one must be reused. ”
I looked at his expression, looked confused, and said seriously: "Brother Xianren also said, he has good kung fu, such a steep road, he walks so steadily on his back, and he looks very young." is a five-man commander, Zhou Yang knows him. (To be continued.) )
