Chapter 124: Inquiry

The cell was dark and gloomy, and after a lot of torture, the few people who were caught were covered with scars all over their bodies, and their mouths were constantly gasping. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhou Yan looked around, and saw that the whip next to him still had meat stars and blood stains on it, so he looked away in disgust.
"Say, what did Prime Minister Wang tell you?" Zhou Yan asked, Wang Xiang was hidden deep enough, he didn't find Wang Xiang in this matter before.
"This master, we have all said it, can you let us go?" One of them asked, enduring the pain.
Tongmu's face sank, and he drank: "It's good to ask you to reply, who told you to speak?" ”
Falling into such a situation, these people naturally know that there is more luck than luck, but there is still a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
"If you dare to act under my name, you must be prepared to be severely punished, do you think my name as a little overlord in the capital is for nothing?" Zhou Yan glanced at the man and said, "If you confess and make me satisfied with what you said, I can still give you a good time if I am in a good mood, and it will not harm your family, you can consider it yourself." ”
In the past, he only heard Zhou Yan's name, and when he was born in the royal family because he could be reincarnated, he had such confidence, but now that he fell into his hands, he knew that this person's killing decision was not weaker than others.
"Thank you, Prince." The man smiled miserably and said, "Our brother is also used to licking blood from the knife, even if he borrows ten of us, he doesn't dare to act in the name of the prince of the world. This time, it was really the people from the palace who came to our brother and said that everything else was ready, as long as we went to the teahouse at this hour and took the little girl in the room away, it didn't matter what we did, as long as we made a disturbance and the little girl's reputation was ruined. We were still thinking. This little girl didn't know how to offend Wang Xiang, and let Wang Xiang use such a vicious plan. Our brother also took people's money and people to eliminate disasters, and I didn't know that this little girl was still familiar with the prince, otherwise we wouldn't have taken this job. ”
Zhou Yan could still see if this person was lying, he seized the loophole in this person's words and asked, "You mean, the person who is looking for you to do things just asked you to kidnap the little girl who went to the teahouse room today?" ”
The man nodded. "Yes, yes. Nothing else did our brother do. Even the man who came to us did not identify himself, and it was our brother who followed the man cautiously. When I saw him enter the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I realized that it was the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion who were looking for our brother. "He regrets his death now, and he shouldn't have been greedy for money to take this business in the first place.
In this way, Zhou Yan felt that it was reasonable, and Wang Xiang had been in the court for many years. There are a lot of people who can be used under his hands, and God can make a person disappear without knowing it. Where will you find these people who are not useful. If Wang Xiang really did it, it wouldn't be such a gentle method, he just wanted to ruin a little girl's reputation.
It's fun now, the corners of Zhou Yan's mouth hooked. Get up and walk outside.
Seeing that Zhou Yan and they were leaving, the man was anxious: "Lord Shizi, you just promised our brother." ”
Zhou Yan looked back. said: "Don't worry, my Zhou Yan's words count." ”
The man breathed a sigh of relief. Several others whimpered and cried.
Out of the cell, Zhou Yan beckoned Songmu to come over and give a few orders, and after a while, Songmu entered the cell, pulled out the man who had just spoken, stuffed him into a carriage and walked to the east of the city.
In the Xinglan Courtyard, the lights are also transparent at this time, and the green sound is supporting the clothes for Jiang Quan and Jiang Chun to choose.
"This one is not bad."
There are only so many clothes, these days the Liu family is also angry, and they forgot to make new clothes for them, Jiang Quinoa and Jiang Chun just changed a few clothes, this tomorrow is going to attend the banquet in Changning Bo Mansion, and the two of them only remembered to choose clothes the night before.
"But I like the dark one." Jiang Chun frowned, it was difficult to choose.
Thinking that Jiang Chun is not young, Jiang Quinoa also hopes that she can get the attention of others, although it is difficult to marry the family members of the Jiang family with their family background, but it is also good if they can meet a promising son of a poor family. Everyone has poor relatives, and I can't tell if those wives and wives are also worried about what to say to their poor nephews.
It was still early, Jiang Quxuan had a headache, and he really couldn't make up his mind, so he said, "Take the things with you, let's go to Xinying Courtyard to find Mama Zheng to get an idea." ”
Jiang Chun's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly helped pack up his clothes, Cai Lu thought about it, and took the two boxes on the dresser.
Mama Zheng washed her feet and was smearing balsam on her face in front of the bronze mirror, when she heard Jiang Quinoa and them coming, she frowned suspiciously, and asked the maid to take them in.
"Mama smells so good." Jiang Chun noticed a burst of aroma coming to his nose when he entered the door, and sniffed.
Mama Zheng was amused, nodded at her, and said, "Just count you as a dog's nose." ”
"What's the matter with the two young ladies coming so late?" Mama Zheng estimated that she could still talk to these two young ladies for three quarters of an hour, and after three quarters of an hour, it would be the time for her to sleep, and I only hoped that the matter asked by these two young ladies would not be troublesome, and they could be sent away within three quarters of an hour.
"I'm here to disturb Mama so late, I'm really going to attend the flower viewing banquet tomorrow, our sisters haven't been there before, and we don't know how to dress, so I want to ask Mama's opinion." Jiang Qu said, there was an inexplicable floral fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose, this fragrance was very familiar, but he couldn't remember what the fragrance was for a while, and people couldn't help but want to explore.
Mama Zheng is still very satisfied with Jiang Qu Jiang Chun's attitude, these female officials who came out of the palace or the palace said that they were raising grandmothers in a big family, if the young lady of that family had a docile personality, well-behaved and polite, knowing that respecting teachers and respecting them, it would also make their lives better. What I am most afraid of is to meet those arrogant and domineering personalities, thinking that they are masters when they have money, and treating them with the same kind of grandma as other subordinates, which is the most difficult.
"Since the eldest lady doesn't dislike me for being short-sighted, I'll help take a look." Mama Zheng said.
Jiang Quinoa was overjoyed when she heard it, and hurriedly asked Cai Lu to unfold her clothes.
Mama Zheng was still ready to show off her strength with great interest, and when she looked at the clothes they opened, it was like a basin of cold water pouring down.
Although she hasn't been in Jiangfu for a long time, there are three or four clothes in it that have been worn by Jiang Quinoa, that is to say. Jiang Quinoa: The clothes they wear when they go to the banquet tomorrow are the same clothes they usually wear.
Just a few clothes, I can't choose anything outstanding, Mama Zheng saw that Cai Lu also took the jewelry box, and hurriedly cheered up and asked her to open the box to see.
I thought that the clothes were enough, but after looking at the jewelry box, Mama Zheng still felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart.
In the end, I barely managed to make up two sets of head noodles and a set of pearls. A set of silver. chose the right clothes to match, and Mama Zheng sent the happy Jiang Quan Jiang Chun and the others away.
Mama Zheng stood at the door, looking at Jiang Qu and Jiang Chun, who were talking and laughing and gradually walking away, and thought: This eldest lady is really happy. The same in-law lady, the treatment is very different, and she doesn't care at all.
Living in Xinyingyuan together, Jiang Zhi has something. Mama Zheng, a person who has been in the house all her life, just pay attention. If you look for a little girl to talk to her, you'll know everything.
Now it seems that the rumors in the house before may not be groundless.
Early the next morning, Jiang Quinoa and Jiang Zhi dressed up and went to the main room.
Jiang Zhi also came early. She was dressed in a new dress, wearing a summer shirt made of freshness, and a delicate set of heads and faces on her head. That face seems to be a new pair of Liu's new face at the Spring Banquet in Jiangfu last time, and it was not sent out.
Jiang Zhi stood in the center of the hall and circled. The little blushed and smiled, and a smile overflowed his eyes, pestering Liu and asking, "Mother, do you think I look good?" ”
Even if she wanted her not to be so proud, the Liu family still couldn't help but give birth to the pride that my family had a girl who had just grown up, Jiang Zhi was so young, she already had such a good look, as long as she cultivated it carefully, she was no worse than the young lady of the family.
When Jiang Quinoa and Jiang Chun came in, Liu looked at the two of them, and saw that they were dressed neatly today, and the match was fine, so he was relieved. If one of these banquets is not done well, it will be difficult to enter the circle of nobles in the future. For Jiang Quinoa and Jiang Chun, she only begged them to be innocent, and she would never dare to think that they would be noticed by anyone for their good performance.
"You haven't participated in such a banquet, so when the time comes, you have to watch more and talk less, and follow Ah Zhi closely. The ladies of the family who participated in the banquet had one or two handkerchiefs, and they would all be divided into their own circles and get together at that time, if you don't know the rules, don't rush to get together, just be with a few ladies of the Chen family. Ah Zhi has participated in various banquets since she was a child, and she will take care of you when the time comes. Liu said to Jiang Quinoa.
Jiang Zhi blushed from being praised, pursed her lips and said to Jiang Qu: "Sister, don't worry, you will be with me when the time comes, and I will take care of you." ”
Liu was also invited, but the ladies used to get together to listen to the play and play cards, and the little girls were not willing to play with them, so they would often be taken by Miss Chang Ningbo to the side places and play separately.
Jiang Quinoa thought that Jiang Zhi was still worried yesterday, and she was nervous and excited about participating in the banquet in Changningbo Mansion, and she had already adjusted her mood today. Sure enough, she is a few years older, and she doesn't have the courage to have Azhi.
The flower-viewing banquet in Changningbo Mansion started in the afternoon, and the ladies used to talk, drink, drink tea and listen to the play, and ate the banquet in Changningbo Mansion in the evening, and came back before the curfew.
After lunch, and after a quarter of an hour's rest, a little maid came to say that it was time to go out.
There is still some distance from the place where Changningbo's Mansion is located in the alley, Jiangfu's status is low, and the first time I participated in the banquet of Changningbo's Mansion, I naturally couldn't go too late, which would leave a bad impression on the host's family.
Jiang Quinoa Jiang Chun arrived at the second gate, Liu Jiang Zhi had already arrived, in the two carriages, the front was spacious and naturally Liu's, and Jiang Zhi was also standing beside Liu and talking.
When they came, Liu asked them to get into a carriage in the back, and a few people sat down, and the carriage moved slowly.
The road was bustling outside, and all kinds of shouting were endless, Jiang Chun couldn't help but pick up a crack in the curtain and look out, and soon loosened the curtain with great interest.
"Why didn't you watch it?" Jiang Quinoa was still silently reciting the rules taught by Mama Zheng in her heart, and when she saw Jiang Chun's unhappy look, she asked.
Jiang Chun shrugged: "It's not interesting, I glanced at it in such a hurry, and I didn't see anything." These young ladies of the big family are so pitiful, they can't really see anything. ”
She was still very surprised that she could sigh like this, she looked out, this was on the street, there were many pedestrians on the street, and the carriage was not running fast, even then she didn't see anything, Jiang Quinoa somewhat understood her feelings.
"Looking out in the carriage, I hurried by like a passerby, seeing nothing and leaving nothing. If you want to go to the market, let's go out in two days. I also heard Brother Shunzi say that in a few days, there will be temple fairs in the capital, so let's go to the temple fairs too. Jiang Qu said.
Jiang Chun was really happy when he heard this, and talked about the temple fair with Jiang Quinoa with interest.
Even if I went out early, when I arrived at the gate of Changningbo Mansion, I waited for a while just to stop the carriage.
The banquet in the capital lord's house, the post is rare, and the identity of the person invited is also the most expensive, and it is not easy to give anyone privileges, so everyone will go in one by one in the order of first come, first served.
When I got out of the carriage, I saw a lot of people who looked like housekeepers, and when I saw a guest coming, I would bring two maids wearing blue armor to come over and salute respectfully, and take the guest inside.
Changning Bo Ding is not prosperous, in the early years because of the problem of the title and a few close branches are a little unpleasant, these years of the Ning Bo Mansion is becoming more and more prosperous, and the other branches also want to come over, but Chang Ningbo Bo still remembers the grievances of the year, and does not want to be close to them, so every time it comes to the New Year's banquet, it will be a little too busy.
The maiden of Jiangfu came to Bofu for the first time, the people of Bofu were not familiar, the mother who came to greet the guest smiled very enthusiastically and came to salute, and asked two sentences in a timely manner when she walked in, neither abrupt nor abrupt, but also got the news she wanted, and when she arrived at the Qiongfang Pavilion where the banquet was held, when the female dependents of Changning Bofu came, she mentioned it softly, and the female dependents of Changning Bofu knew who was coming.
"Mrs. Jiang is a rare guest, come in quickly, Mrs. Chen, they have already arrived, and they asked about you just now." The lady of Changningbo Mansion took the Liu family inside, looked at the three Jiang Quan sisters, and said to the Liu family: "Mrs. Jiang is so blessed, the girls in the mansion are like flowers and jade, smart and well-behaved, and they are enviable when they look at it." ”
Liu didn't know very well that it was the lady of Changningbo Mansion who spoke, and his mouth was modest, and he smiled and said a few words.
As soon as I entered the hall of Qiongfang Pavilion, I heard a hearty laugh inside, and then the voice of the warbler Yanyan who filled the room came.
Seeing so many noble ladies from various families at once, Jiang Quinoa only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and he couldn't tell who was who.
"This is our wife." The ladies who led them into the door introduced them to the Liu family.
Hearing that it was Mrs. Changningbo, Jiang Quinoa saluted and just got up and was about to take a look at the rumored unfortunate woman, when she heard someone call her in a voice with a little surprise: "Sister Quinoa, it's really you." "To be continued
