() Rong Xi hooked the corners of his lips for Li Congyao and Junqing Blue Cloth Vegetables. His eyes weren't big at all, but once they were full of smiles, they bent into two slits. Coupled with his fleshy slightly bulging cheeks, it makes people feel happy to look at it.

Jun Qinglan couldn't help but raise her eyes, looked at Rong Xi seriously, and was somewhat interested in the strange news he said. Guanzhou Mansion is now like an eventful autumn, with frequent accidents, and it really needs something new and interesting to make everyone's body and mind feel better.

"If the two masters want to hear it, the slave will tell you about it."

As he spoke, Rong Xi straightened up, and cleared his throat vigorously before he spoke. The next moment, he pointed at the orchid and opened the conversation.

"Speaking of this state capital, it's also a magical place. You say that it is dry and lacks water, but it is close to Lingshui in the north and the Jialu River in the south. If you say that it has abundant waters, but these two rivers never intersect with the prefecture, but only flow quietly from the edge of the prefecture, it is as if the whole city has been forgotten. ”

Li Congyao frowned slightly: "Let's talk about the point." ”

"That's the point." Rong Xi smiled and said: "Six years ago, the county guard brought water into the city, changing the drought and water shortage of Guanzhou Mansion for thousands of years. You must know that most of the living water in the world contains abundant products, and compared with the danger of the Lingshui River, the Jialu River is much calmer. As a result, many people began to try their hand at building boats and sailing into the Jialu River to fish and catch shrimp. For many years, it has been peaceful. Behold....... ”

Rong Xi's words changed, and his tone and expression suddenly became solemn and mysterious.

"Who knows, just a few days ago, a water monster suddenly appeared in the normally calm Jialu River. It is said that the water monster was several feet long, ferocious and ugly, and swallowed the fishing boat in one gulp as soon as it came out of the water, causing many people to go missing. And those who don't see people in life, don't see corpses in death, it is said that they were all devoured by water monsters. Since the news of the existence of the water monster came out, the chickens and ducks on the river beach have frequently disappeared, and even the clothes and fishing nets that were dried by the river can be dragged into the river and eaten. Therefore, these days, no one in the Guanzhou Mansion dares to go down to the river anymore. ”

Jun Qinglan narrowed her eyes: "There is still such a thing?" ”

"It is precisely for this reason that the slave really has no way to buy fresh fish, and he asks the eldest prince to punish him."

Jun Qinglan sighed when she heard this: "Blessing and misfortune are not a one-way street, and the Guanzhou Mansion has been really lively recently." I've lived here for more than ten years, and I've never heard of any water monsters, and it's no wonder that my father-in-law is not guilty. ”

"Get up." Li Congyao said slowly: "I thought that the county guard would organize manpower to get rid of the water monster, but it bought us a lot of time. ”

If in the past, even if the entire Jialu River was a water monster, Huang Zhong probably wouldn't have paid attention to it. But now, Dingguo Gong is in the Guanzhou Mansion, and the water monster has injured people again, no matter what, Huang Zhong has to behave. In this way, for the time being, I really can't take care of Huang Yuan's case at the beginning of the month.

For Jun Qinglan, it became good news.

"Huh." Jun Qinglan smiled bitterly: "I really can't imagine that one day I will have to thank a water monster for the gift." ”

"There are so many anecdotes today."

As soon as Jun Qinglan's voice fell to the ground, he saw Tang Ying descend from the sky and suddenly appeared in front of him. That person has always been elusive, in the past, he was a secret guard, always hiding not far from Li Congyao, but Jun Qinglan never felt where he was hiding, and he was inevitably wary of that person.

But, out of Yanjing

Later, Tang Ying became Mingwei who followed her. Jun Qinglan gradually got used to his existence, and almost forgot about the danger of this person. It wasn't until Fang Cai that he suddenly appeared quietly that Jun Qinglan remembered that Li Congyao's side was still following such a frightening team. If he wanted to, there was nothing these people couldn't do.

Jun Qinglan's heart suddenly gave birth to a little warmth. Li Congyao never used the power in his hands to meddle in her affairs, and only occasionally gave advice when she was in a desperate situation. It is precisely because of this that she can make amazing progress by his side.

It's his trust in her enough. This feeling is inexplicably comforting.

"Do you want to hear the strange news of the lowly position? I dare to guarantee that my news will definitely be more interesting to you than Rong Xi's. ”

Tang Ying is different from Rong Xi. Rong Xi is a slave of the family, and he has been a eunuch since he was a child, for him, Li Congyao is the sky, and he is the person he fears from the bones. Therefore, although he always has a smile on his lips, this smile is used to confuse others.

Tang Ying used to be a snitch, but he took refuge in Li Congyao in desperation, and was later impressed by Li Congyao's methods and character, and devoted himself to assisting. But he has not lost his heart, and he is still the same as before, a cheerful character.

Talking and doing things are also more casual.

"If you want to say it, say it." Jun Qinglan knew Tang Ying's temper very well, and she was not surprised by his casualness.

"You told me about monitoring Wen Niang, and I don't have to do it anymore from about tomorrow." Tang Ying grinned and said, "Because, tomorrow she will be thrown into the Jialu River by the dipping pig cage and drowned." ”

"You say...... What the? "Jun Qinglan's surprise is not trivial.

Wenniang is going to be immersed in a pig cage? What is the situation!

Although Huang Yuan intends to marry her, the two have not officially visited the church, who can immerse her in a pig cage?

"Surprise." Tang Ying pursed his lips: "At first, when I heard the news, I was also very surprised. It's ridiculous to say. ”

"The old man in the Huang clan arrested Wen Niang, saying that she had an affair with another man, and the evidence was conclusive. Now she and the adulterer have been tied up, and after the ancestral hall has been sacrificed early tomorrow morning, they will both be thrown into the Jialu River. ”

"Wen Niang and Huang Yuan are not married, even if they really have an affair with someone, where can it be the turn of the people from the Huang clan ancestral hall to take care of it?" Jun Qinglan frowned slightly.

This thing is really a bit of a dog meddling with rats!

"Who's to say it isn't?" Tang Ying shrugged his shoulders: "Normal people know that this kind of thing is. However, the entire Huang clan ancestral hall did a solemn thing, and no one thought it was strange, but it was cheap and lowly and watched a big show for free. ”

Jun Qinglan pursed her lips lightly and did not speak, what the people of the Huang clan ancestral hall did to Wen Niang was something she never expected. At such a moment, such a thing came out, what kind of heart did Ann have?

"If you want to say it humbly, the cook is not a loss." Tang Ying sighed and said, "How come she is also the age of a milf this year, but her adulterer is still a strong young man." It's long, it's reasonable. If you can die with such a person, you should be able to look at it. ”

A strong lad?

Jun Qinglan thought about it carefully, she went in and out of the new mansion of Huangfu several times, and all she saw were old people. Huang Yuan seems to be very nostalgic, the subordinates who serve around him have been with him for a long time, where are there any young people?

Could it be ...... What kind of heart does Wen Niang really have?

"The word is the first word." Li Congyao opened his mouth lightly: "Nothing is strange. ”

Jun Qinglan narrowed her eyes: "That person, was the Huang family looking for him?" ”

The fact that Huang Yuan bought a new house is not a secret to this day. Now that Huang Yuan is dead and has no heirs and wives, the house has become an ownerless piece of fat, who doesn't want to bite two bites? However, the title deed is firmly in the hands of Wen Niang. If you want to swallow that mansion, you have to find a reason to make the tattoo disappear first.

There is nothing more justified than adultery, and no one will be singled out.

Therefore, the origin of the adulterer who came out of nowhere is really suspicious.

"Probably not." Tang Ying groaned and said: "Look, Wen Niang and that person should know each other, and there seems to be a lot of maintenance in the action. Looking at that scene, even I couldn't help but wonder if the tattoo girl really had an affair with that man. ”

Wen Niang's temperament is very cautious, knowing that the Huang family is eyeing her, how can she care for the legendary adulterer in full view? Jun Qinglan felt that the development of things was really becoming more and more mysterious.

"The place where Wen Niang will be executed tomorrow is in the Jialu River?" In the silence, Li Congyao suddenly opened his mouth.

Tang Ying nodded: "Exactly." ”

Li Congyao lifted the corners of his lips, a slight cold smile under his eyes, and an undisguised sarcasm: "Then it's not strange at all." ”

Jun Qinglan heard a flash of inspiration in her mind.

There is a water monster in the Jialu River, and the county guard always has to do something to save his face. However, it is rumored that the water monster is so ferocious, who would dare to rush down the river? At this time, the most suitable and convenient way is to choose the three animal sacrifices, build a high platform, in order to calm the anger of the river god, and collect the water monster to calm the river.

According to the older generation, the higher the wisdom of the sacrifice, the better the effect. What could be higher than the spiritual wisdom of man?

The Huang family wants to tattoo the mother to die, and the Jialu River needs people and animals, where can I find the sacrifices? Tattoo Niang is the most suitable!

So, the two sides hit it off, and it was really a good calculation!

"Let's have a good rest today, and tomorrow morning, let's go and join in the fun."

"Huh?" Tang Yingqi said: "Why not tonight?" ”

The moon is dark and the wind is high, isn't it the most suitable time to rob and kill people or something? Tomorrow during the day, there will be many people and many people. How to save people?

Jun Qinglan took a shallow breath: "If Wen Niang doesn't die, how many people will be worried." I'm afraid that she can't rest assured herself. ”

Tang Ying blinked, what do you mean by this? Do not understand. But it doesn't matter, I'll understand tomorrow.

The ritual of worshipping the heavens of the Jialu River is placed in the time of the hour.

An hour before the river was gathered around the river. Although everyone feared the unknown water monster in the river, the great interest in schadenfreude from time immemorial had overcome the fear in their hearts.

The wind is beautiful and the sun is shining. A high Dharma platform was erected at the three zhang of the Jialu River, which was decorated with red silk entwining. Under the high platform, a dense crowd of people gathered, one by one, stretched their necks, trying to make themselves see the situation on the stage more clearly.

Jun Qinglan and Li Congyao hid in the reeds not far away, silently watching everything in front of them.

At the beginning of the day, a loud horn suddenly opened the way. The next moment, I heard a voice shouting: "The auspicious time has come, bring up that pair of evil dog men and women!" ”
