Lu Jia nodded.

At this moment, her voice was slow, deep and very majestic: "You all get up, except for the two of you escorting Miss Liu back to the house, the rest of the people will be taken to Princess Rongchang's mansion first, and they can leave only after they have finished asking questions, finished the case record and drawn the detainment." Would you like to? ”

Everyone in the Uncle Mansion looked at each other, and then said in unison: "I thank the princess for not killing her, and I should obey the princess." ”

When Xu Yong heard this, he waved his hand and summoned the government soldiers on the roof, and escorted the cadres from the Uncle Guo's Mansion to the princess's mansion to watch them first.

The two government soldiers who supported Liu Yuqin also saluted and helped their young lady back to the house.

For a while, there were only four people left in the huge Xiaowangzhuang, Chu Qingruo, and Cao Xiulian, who was still kneeling on the ground.

Knowing that the general trend was gone, she was silent, but she still looked at Chu Qingruo with malicious eyes and resentment. It's all to blame on this little slut, if it weren't for her, she wouldn't have fallen into such a field!

Lian Feng came in, and as he walked, he looked back at the soldiers of the National Uncle's Mansion who were escorted out outside the village, and came behind Fu Lingyun. stretched out his head and saw Cao Xiulian kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly turned around and shouted: "Come, you two, go find me a rope to tie her up." ”

turned around and complained to Xu Yong: "Uncle Xu, you are really, why don't you tie her up, what if you hurt the girl?" ”

Xu Yong smiled: "It depends on whether she is fast or I am fast." ”

Lian Feng rolled his eyes at him: "Let's tie it up, otherwise we will all work in vain after a while." ”

The two of them went over and tied up Cao Xiulian, and Chu Qingruo didn't say a word to her from beginning to end.

Fu Lingyun glanced at Lu Jia, and Lu Jia understood: "Lian Feng, send her to Dali Temple, just say that she wants to murder me, and if she is caught by my government soldiers, let Dali Temple handle it strictly." ”

Lian Feng took the order, and let the two relatives who tied her up accompany her and were about to go out, Cao Xiulian suddenly turned around and asked Chu Qingruo in an unusually calm tone: "At the beginning, you refused to call me a mother, only called me Mrs. Xiulian, but because you always suspected that I hurt your mother?" ”

Chu Qingruo said coldly: "I never suspected that my mother's death had something to do with you. You are not my mother in the first place, why is it wrong for me to call you Mrs. Xiulian?

A title does not determine whether a person is worthy of being a mother or not, Zhang Yunbao called your mother all your life, how could you have raised him well and made him end up like that. As far as he is concerned, can you still afford the word mother? ”

Hearing the words 'Zhang Yunbao', Cao Xiulian was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and pounced on Chu Qingruo with a strange scream: "You are talking nonsense, obviously you hurt my Bao'er, you still have the face to say!" You little slut, you killed him, not me, not me, you killed my Bao'er! ”

Fu Lingyun hurriedly escorted her to take two steps back, Chu Qingruo was fearless, and smashed her voice into Cao Xiulian's ears word by word with her cold voice: "Before Zhang Yunbao was executed, he said to the person sent by his grandmother to see him off, this life ended up like this, it was all because of your connivance and pampering. He said, If there is an afterlife, don't be your son again. ”

"No, no, no, my Bao'er won't say that, impossible, you must have lied to me, it's impossible to ......"

Cao Xiulian was like a camel crushed by the last straw, her eyes became dull, her mouth muttered to herself, and her body couldn't stop slumping on the ground.

Holding her entourage, he lifted her body vigorously and looked at Fu Lingyun. Fu Lingyun waved his hand and motioned for them to take her away.

The two picked her up and turned around, and Chu Qingruo added: "Zhang Yunbao's bones were collected and buried by my grandmother." ”

Cao Xiulian's back paused, and she was soon carried out of Zhuangzi by the two relatives.

Liu Yuqin was supported by two government soldiers and returned to her uncle's mansion, as soon as she entered the door, the maid who greeted her saw her face, her hand shook, and the fruit plate and tea in her hand fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

"Oh no, someone! Come on, Miss, I'm hurt! The little girl shouted as she ran to the front hall.

Soon, the whole of Uncle Guo's mansion ran out, and several mothers-in-law grabbed Liu Yuqin from the hands of the government soldiers, hurriedly sent her into her room, and invited the doctor in the mansion to come over to treat her. The rest of the mothers-in-law went separately to Liu Yuqin's mother Liu Yao's house and Uncle Guo's study.

Liu Yao's family and Uncle Guo hurried over when they heard the news, and as soon as they entered the door, Liu Yuqin, who was wrapped in a cloth and bandage, couldn't help but hug her when she saw her mother and cried loudly: "Mother, mother, what will my daughter do in the future!" ”

Uncle Guo asked anxiously on the side: "You, how could you do this?" ”

He has put a lot of effort into this daughter, hoping that in the future she will be able to get the most out of himself. But now that her greatest weapon has been ruined, she is afraid that she will never be able to get anything for herself in the future, and she is very disappointed.

Liu Yuqin sobbed and told her father and mother the ins and outs of the two conspiring to frame Chu Qingruo in Li Shilang's mansion for the first time, and then met Cao Xiulian who was wanted on the street, until she hid her at home.

After she finished speaking, Liu Yaoshi slapped her arm lightly in anger: "You, why are you so confused!" My little enemy, the Cao family has several lives in his hands, and he has been wanted by Dali Temple, how can he be a good match? You, you still brought her home and conspired with her? That, how is that different from seeking skin with a tiger? ”

Uncle Liu Guo was also annoyed: "Now that this matter still involves Princess Fu'an, do you want to harm the whole family to follow you, and end up beheaded for a man?" Today's matter, Princess Fu'an is already lucky not to pursue the crime of rebellion in my uncle's house, you, you don't want to avenge the disfigurement anymore. And that Fu Lingyun, who has already been given the emperor's marriage, you, don't think about it anymore! ”

's own daughter, I know her character best. She cherishes her appearance the most, and now that she is disfigured, she can't swallow this breath. Although he couldn't swallow this breath, he would rather endure it than the crime of murdering the princess, so as not to cause another incident. When her injuries heal, it is not difficult to find a protégé for her to marry.

Liu Yuqin cried again, and Liu Yao also hugged her and cried bitterly, sad.

After Chu Qingruo and the others left Xiaowangzhuang, they returned to their courtyard to drink tea and rest for a while. Chu Qingruo ordered someone to capture Cao Xiulian and send her to Dali Temple to be imprisoned.

After receiving the news, Chu Wenxuan dismissed his subordinates, watched the dripping drizzle wet the banana leaves in the yard, and sat alone in Cuizhu Garden all night.

When the sky was getting brighter, he called someone to go to the kitchen to prepare some food boxes with edible and gold paintings, and carried the food boxes alone with a half-new oil-paper umbrella, and walked out of the Chu house with heavy steps, and came to the Dali Temple that looked a little gloomy in the rain.

"Cao, someone has come to see you!" The cell boss shouted and opened the door.

In a square, dirty, damp and dark cell, Cao Xiulian shrunk in a straw-paved corner, her hands on her knees, her hair scattered, and her clothes were already wrinkled and dirty.

The face that had not slept all night was pale and dull, and there was no longer the shrewd light of the past in the two eyes, and it became hollow.

Chu Wenxuan stared at her blankly at the door for a long time, and his heart kept rising with emotions intertwined with anger and distress.

The cell boss glanced at him: "Hurry up, the adults will come to inspect in a while, and when the adults see that I let you in to visit the prison privately, I won't be able to eat and walk away." ”

Chu Wenxuan woke up like a dream, and greeted the cell boss in embarrassment: "Hey, I know I know, I'm tired." ”

Lift your feet and step into the cell. Gently put down the food box and whispered: "Xiulian, I, I'm coming to see you." After speaking, his voice became choked, "I, I brought you some of your favorite food, you, you can eat as much as you want." ”

Cao Xiulian heard his voice, slowly raised her head, looked at him with an unfamiliar look, and said in a hoarse and slow voice: "You, what are you doing here?" ”

Chu Wenxuan lowered his head, choked up and didn't speak, just opened the food box, took out the food inside, took out a pair of chopsticks, wiped them on his sleeve, and handed them to her silently.

Cao Xiulian looked at the chopsticks he handed over, and asked him with a complicated expression: "What are you doing here?" Is it to see what happened to the person who killed your original partner and mother? ”

Chu Wenxuan's lips trembled, and he said with difficulty: "I, I didn't mean that, I, I just wanted to come and see you." I, I, I don't blame you. ”

Chu Wenxuan's voice became quieter and quieter, and in the end, with his lowered head, he was drowned between his lips and teeth.

"Hahaha, you don't blame me? I killed your mother and eldest lady, and you even said you didn't blame me? Hahahaha! ”

Cao Xiulian giggled as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, and the laughter seemed to be about to flow out of her eyes.

Chu Wenxuan's face couldn't help but cross a trace of annoyance, but he still said good-naturedly: "I believe you must have a hard time, you, you must not mean it." ”

"Hahaha, Chief Chushan, are you really kind? Still unwilling to face reality? Cao Xiulian put away her crazy smile, turned back to her previous lifelessness, and looked at Chu Wenxuan mockingly and asked.

"Chu Wenxuan, you and I have been husband and wife for so many years, don't you really know what kind of person I am? No, you know, you always knew that. ”

Cao Xiulian said to Chu Wenxuan in a ghostly voice, like a temptation, "That's right, Chu Qingruo's mother, Li Yuanyuan I used Qinghuang to aggravate her depression and make her depressed. ”

"Shuyuan is a good person, she has no quarrel by nature, and she has already agreed to let me admit you into the door, you, why did you do this!" Chu Wenxuan was heartbroken.
