398, Fanwai (19)
Luoyunxi looked up at the sky, and the stars twinkled in the night, as beautiful as the stars in a fairy tale.
She used her sweet soft voice to tell Jun Lanfeng about the Thousand and One Nights: the blonde princess was designed by the greedy maid to change her identity, in a vain attempt to marry the prince, but in the end, she was still no match for the prince's sharp eyes......
The night is getting darker, and the dew is heavy and slightly cool.
The wind is light, the water is soft, the moon is bright, and the scenery here is unique.
On the shore, a slender white figure walked slowly, looking at the lake from afar, with a little envy in his eyes.
Duanmu Li had to admit that even if he let go of the feelings hidden in his heart, every time he saw such a picture of concubine, he couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart.
Perhaps, this is the happiness of unhappy people who are not used to seeing others.
He cleared his throat, walked out, and laughed at the lake: "Lan Feng, Xi'er!" ”
Luo Yunxi stopped his mouth and turned his face to look at the shore.
Jun Lanfeng's face gradually sank, and he looked at the shore with displeasure.
"Senior brother, how come you have time to come over now?" Luo Yunxi was also puzzled.
Late at night, it was the busiest time for the Fengyun Island Night Market, and he should be messing around in the restaurant.
Doubts aside, she still picked up the sculls.
Jun Lanfeng took the two ebony oars, flipped his wrist, and rowed skillfully, and after only a few strokes of his powerful arms, the boat shot like an arrow to the shore.
"Come up." Seeing that the boat was only more than ten zhang away from the shore, Jun Lanfeng shouted in a deep voice.
Duanmu bent slightly from the delicate peach blossom eyes, sank his strength, tapped his toes on the shore, and his long figure bounced out, and he landed steadily on the bow of the boat with a difficult turn in mid-air.
The boat struggled, and the hull sank significantly.
Duanmu Li was not polite to them, he picked up the hem of his long shirt, sat on the edge of the boat leisurely, picked up the clear water in the lake with one hand, and said casually: "I got a message, do you want to listen to Lan Feng?" ”
Jun Lanfeng glanced at him lightly, and his tone didn't care much: "Say." ”
What big deal could there be that he didn't know?
"The servant of the ministry Xu Chongtian favors his wife and destroys his concubine, and even presses his concubine."
As he spoke, he observed Jun Lanfeng's expression.
Hearing this, Jun Lanfeng's already somewhat cold face suddenly became extremely difficult to look at.
"Pressing the heir?" He asked word by word.
Maybe it's because of the shadow of his identity since he was a child, maybe it's his mother's misfortune that has left an eternal mark in his heart, or maybe it's because his love with Xi'er is stronger than Jin Jian, and they come in pairs, in short, he doesn't like to see men thin.
But the polygamous concubine system is extremely rampant in this era, and he has no way to stop it, so he can only propose that spoiling concubines and killing wives is a big crime, and adultery is the most serious crime, exterminating the nine clans on both sides.
From the beginning of the founding of the Fengyun Country, no one has dared to cross this thunder pool by half a step.
Now, there are still people who dare to suppress their concubines?
Duanmu let out a "hmm", and the corners of his mouth hooked up a hint of mockery: "You also know that the rich and noble people secretly don't know how much pickled dirty things, if the sister-in-law suddenly dies of illness due to headache and brain fever, it is natural for the concubine to inherit all the wealth and name." ”
"What the hell is going on?" Luo Yunxi asked out loud.
Duanmu was also interested in seeing her, so he simply told all about what happened in the Blue Water Courtyard a few hours ago.
It's really strange that Mrs. Zhengmu, the servant of the ministry, disregarded her identity and begged Mr. Academy to do this kind of thing!
He sighed again as he spoke, but Luo Yunxi threw out a question lightly: "Why did you go to Lanshui's house?" ”
Duanmu was ready to answer, and said without changing his face: "I went to Mr. Lan's house to investigate Yan Yan's last time, and accidentally found that there was a pot of phoenix bananas in her yard and was about to die, so I asked you about raising phoenix bananas yesterday to see if I could help." ”
Luo Yunxi looked at him with an inquiring gaze and teased, "You don't seem to be such a warm-hearted person." ”
Duanmu didn't know how to answer.
Luo Yunxi saw that he was uncomfortable, so he quickly stopped joking and changed the topic: "Lan Feng, if there is such a thing, Xu Chongtian is indeed very excessive. ”
She asked, and sighed in her heart, my senior brother was already a genius and extremely good, but his good years have been wasted so far, which is really regrettable.
She didn't dare to say that it had anything to do with her, but she had been looking for a suitable candidate for her senior brother in private, but every one of them was rejected by Duanmuli, and she didn't dare to mention it casually later, for fear that Duanmuli would think too much.
The boat floats directionlessly like duckweed on the water.
Junlan Feng picked up an oar with one hand, wrapped one hand around Luo Yunxi's slender waist, and gently opened the lake with the other.
The sound of the water murmured, and with the strength of a thousand catties, the boat swung towards the shore.
"It's almost midnight, go see if Yan Yan has slept, it's time for everyone to rest." Jun Lanfeng said in a deep voice.
Duanmu Li didn't object, and he couldn't object either.
As soon as the ship landed, Xian Ge flashed out of the shadows and shouted in a low voice: "Master! ”
Seeing his solemn face, Duanmu stepped onto the green grass bank, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Xian Ge raised his eyes and looked at Jun Lanfeng and Luo Yunxi, and bowed, Jun Lanfeng bowed slightly, signaling that he didn't need to be too polite.
Xian Ge straightened up
, reported: "Mrs. Xu, she died violently!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were shocked in their hearts, and they couldn't help but glance at each other.
Especially Duanmuli, not long after seeing Mrs. Xu, he was even more suspicious in his heart, and asked with a heavy face: "How could you die so violently?" ”
Xian Ge shook his head and said, "The dark guard was ordered to monitor whether Mrs. Xu would attack Mr. Lan again, and he was very vigilant about her every word and deed. Mrs. Xu left Mr. Lan's house and returned to Xu's house, during which she had dinner with Young Master Xu, and met a few housekeepers and mothers-in-law, but there were no suspicious characters. ”
"By the way," Xian Ge remembered something, "Mr. Lan came to see Mrs. Xu during this period. ”
Duanmu Li was taken aback: "She went to Xu's Mansion to see Mrs. Xu?" ”
How bold is this, sheep into the tiger's mouth?
Xian Ge nodded and said, "Mr. Lan didn't enter the inner courtyard, he only said a few words to Mrs. Xu at the entrance hall and left. ”
"What?" Duanmu asked a little nervously.
"Mr. Lan promised Mrs. Xu that he would not tell him about this, and hoped that Mrs. Xu would not think about it again." Xian Ge replied truthfully.
"Is she stupid?" Duanmu looked at the sky speechlessly.
It seems that Lan Shui is not so stupid, she actually wants to reason with Mrs. Xu whimsically?
Didn't she see that when she was in the courtyard, Mrs. Xu had the intention of killing her at all?
"How did Mrs. Xu die and haven't found out yet?" Jun Lanfeng didn't care about anything else, and asked with thick eyebrows.
"Nope."
Luo Yunxi thought about it at this time and spoke: "She died at a bad time, how can there be so many coincidences in the world?" ”
"Unless Xu Chong knows what she's done." Jun Lanfeng said coldly, a trace of disgust crossed his face, "If this is the case, what is the use of such an ungrateful person living in the world?" ”
Mrs. Xu is a famous lady who has assisted her husband in taking care of the inner house for many years, but if she gets such a result in exchange, it is indeed chilling.
"I'll go take a look." Duanmuli's face was a little dazed, and he pulled his legs and left.
He not only wants to go to Xufu, but also to go to Lanshui to take a look, weishenme always feels a little uneasy?
Caring is chaotic, is he so concerned about blue water?
Luo Yunxi held Jun Lanfeng's hand, and a trace of coldness crossed his black and moving phoenix eyes: "Lanfeng, I also want to go and see." ”
Jun Lanfeng glanced at her, gently clenched her hand, and nodded heavily.
For this kind of man who dares to kill his wife, he thought, Xi'er must be full of anger in her heart, right?
"Ignorance!" His good-looking thin lips spat out two words without warmth.
"Who is ignorant?" Luo Yunxi naturally knew that he was not talking about himself, so he turned his head sideways and asked.
"Xu Chongtian."
Jun Lanfeng let out a disdainful cold snort in his nose, this man, when choosing a wife, he didn't choose a wife well, he didn't have too much emotion, so he went to provoke the woman next to him, and ended up ruining his family, he may not be repentant, and he is ignorant!
"Let's go!" He grabbed Luo Yunxi's wrist and hugged her horizontally.
Luo Yunxi also clasped his hands in tacit agreement and wrapped his neck.
Junlan took advantage of the light work and left like flying.
Jiusha was in the dark, and when he saw that the king and queen were about to leave the palace, he immediately notified the royal forest armament to get off the carriage and wait at the palace gate.
After Jun Lanfeng left the palace, the group took a carriage and went straight to Xu's mansion.
The door of the tall Zhuqi Mansion of the Xu Mansion was closed tightly, and two white curtains were quietly hung on both sides of the house, and there was silence all around, and no sound could be heard.
The carriage came, and the lights that opened the road illuminated the surroundings of Xu's mansion one after another.
"The king has arrived, the queen has arrived, and the heart of the storm has left the king!"
The little eunuch's sharp announcement resounded throughout the alley.
There was a moment of chaos in the Xu Mansion, and the sound of footsteps, human voices, and collisions was intertwined into a lively scene, and the door of the mansion opened in a panic after a while.
"The minister Xu Chongtian will lead the family of Hefu to see my king and queen!"
