In the inn, Xiaohong's words are really a stone that stirs up a thousand waves, this pattern of the Chongming bird is very important to Mingchen and Mingzhu, Xiaohong's words are like finding a breakthrough for them.

Nangong Rou hurriedly asked, "Where have you seen it?" ”

Xiao Hong took a deep breath and rolled up the sleeve of her right hand, and there was a red heavy bird totem on her arm that was exactly the same as the one on the hilt of Ming Chen's sword.

After Nangong Rou and the others were sure that this totem was tattooed, their eyes were full of weirdness when they looked at Xiaohong.

"How do you have this tattoo?"

Nangong Rou put down Xiaohong's sleeves, Xiaohong was already in tears at this time, and she didn't know if it was because she was afraid or because she remembered some of the past.

Xiaohong sat on the chair aggrievedly, sniffled and said: "I don't know where this pattern came from, when I was young, my family lived in a very remote mountain village, I forgot how old I was at that time, a group of people suddenly broke into our village, I really can't remember, anyway, in the chaos I seemed to have been taken away by those people, and then I woke up on the slave cart, this pattern on my arm is also from that time, I saw that the pattern on the hilt of the sword is exactly the same as the one on my hand, I thought he was in league with the slave traders. ”

Looking at Xiaohong's expression doesn't look like she's lying, and Nangong Rou also believes that what Xiaohong said is true, because Xiaohong's life experience can't withstand investigation, she has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion as a washermaid since she was a child, if she lies, she can find out by checking it casually.

Mingchen and Mingzhu's originally excited mood instantly calmed down after Xiaohong finished speaking.

They knew that what Xiaohong said was true, because they had also experienced this kind of thing, but they were not as lucky as Xiaohong at that time, they were stabbed by those people and thrown directly into the pile of dead people, if it weren't for their fate, if it weren't for meeting Nangong Rou, they would have been in a different place by now!

Mingchen held the sword and said: "This sword was left by those people, and I have been holding it in my hand just so that I can find them one day, and I am using this sword to kill them with my own hands!" ”

Mingchen's killing intent and resentment were like a long-sleeping beast, roaring like thunder, Xiaohong looked at Mingchen, and there were some other emotions in her eyes.

After this incident, Nangong Rou first sent Mo Tianxin back to the General's Mansion, and took Xiaohong back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

On the way, they heard Xiaohong say that the National Education Institute was closed for three days and went to the back mountain to investigate the drug, Nangong Rou did not tell Mo Tianxin about last night's incident, and now she was a little worried when she heard the news, the National Education Institute is royal, what will the royal people do when they see the old courtyard?

Where is the identity of the dried corpse in the courtyard, Nangong Rou felt that the dried corpse must be a major secret of the royal family.

Originally, Nangong Rou didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the imperial court, the rivers and lakes and the imperial court were originally the existence of well water and river water, but now that she was involved, she had to pay more attention to the movements of the imperial court.

If it weren't for Nangong Wei, the prime minister's father, who arranged a high-risk marriage for her, Nangong Rou would not have so much leisure to find out the news of the imperial court.

The marriage between a high-ranking official and the crown prince will definitely attract the attention of some treacherous villains, and Nangong Rou is now trying to find a way to hold on to her life without revealing her identity in the rivers and lakes.

Thinking that there were still a few days left in the agreed time with Meng Xin, Nangong Rou was wondering if to meet Meng Yu in advance, and asked him to check the matter of the corpse in the back mountain by the way.

So many things have happened in the first few days since she came to Kyoto, Nangong Rou said that she was really tired, she asked her subordinates to investigate what it was that turtle grandson who put the living Gu in the ink study so far there is no news, Nangong Rou felt a little uneasy in her heart, she always felt that something big would happen in the future, and the current things were all a preview for her.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Nangong Rou went back to Wenxiang Courtyard directly, Xiaohong followed, Nangong Wei and Mrs. Mei didn't react when they learned that Nangong Rou was back, but they just felt that the impact on the Prime Minister's Mansion was not very good, after all, Nangong Rou was also the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, what would it look like to not return home every day!

But Nangong Wei and Mrs. Mei didn't talk to Nangong Rou about it in the end, and after thinking about it again, they felt that Nangong Rou should not be able to do anything more serious than not returning at night.

Sitting in the courtyard, Nangong Rou felt that she needed to do something else, and she couldn't keep being here passively waiting for others to do it.

Now she's a little bit idle.

Nangong Rou's buttocks were not hot on the recliner yet, and there was a person in the fragrance courtyard who surprised Nangong Rou.

"Bring people in." Nangong Qing'er was dressed in a pink dress, and in addition to her maid Liuyue, there were two housekeepers and a cook in the back kitchen.

Nangong Rou couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw Nangong Qing'er's battle, first looked at the cook who was sandwiched by two family members, and then looked at Nangong Qing'er: "Are you going to slaughter someone on the spot to bask in the sun for me?" ”

Nangong Qing'er rolled her eyes at Nangong Rou when she heard this: "What do you want?" You weren't in the house this morning, so I checked out the matter of framing me for drugging you yesterday, this person is the person who drugged you, I have already asked him, and I drugged you purely because I can't get used to you, and I borrowed my name so that you can eat it defenselessly. ”

After Nangong Qing'er finished speaking, she felt really angry and funny.

It's angry that this cook actually used her name in order to drug Nangong Rou! It's funny because Nangong Rou herself doesn't know how annoying she is.

In Nangong Qing'er's eyes, Nangong Rou is a love rival who suddenly appeared! She really doesn't have a good feeling for this half-sister.

Nangong Rou didn't care about the cook anymore after hearing this, but she was quite surprised that Nangong Qing'er would actually start investigating this matter, and it seems that Nangong Qing'er's character is not as bad as she thought.

Nangong Rou nodded and said, "Well, I know, are you still in trouble?" If it's okay, don't bother me in the sun. ”

"What kind of attitude do you have!" Nangong Qing'er waved her hand and asked the family to take the cook down, and the temper that had been suppressed was instantly ignited by Nangong Rou's words, "Let me ask you, did you tell Daddy that Lulu planned to go to Houshan last night?" ”

Nangong Rou chuckled, it turned out that the real reason why Nangong Qing'er came to Wenxiang Courtyard was to ask about the guilt.

Nangong Rou raised her head and looked at Nangong Qing'er's eyes: "I said it, what's wrong, am I wrong?" ”

Hearing this, Nangong Qing'er clenched her fists, her chest rose and fell sharply because of anger, and she looked at Nangong Rou's eyes as if they were about to burst into flames.
