In an attic of "Taoxi Xiaoyin", Zhu Wanting sat at the table in front of the window on the second floor, with her chin propped up with her hands, looking at the big trees in the yard in a daze, her face full of sadness.

What happened in the painting boat was a heavy blow to Zhu Wanting, she never expected that Li Hongyu would ignore her kindness, let alone that she would be completely defeated in the hands of Qin Yue in the track, which made it difficult for her to recover from the defeat for a while.

"County Lord, my county lord sent someone to invite the county lord to listen to a new tune." At this time, a maid came over and whispered in Zhu Wanting's ear.

"Tell the county lord Mingxiang that the county lord will go if he is sick." Zhu Wanting stared at the big tree in the courtyard and replied lightly, where is she in the mood to listen to the song when she is sad and lost now, so she can only refuse Zhu Yuting's kindness.

"County Lord, my county lord said that this piece is played with a novel instrument, and the song has never been played before, called "Liang Zhu", I hope the county lord can go to taste it together." The maid bowed down and explained.

"Liang Zhu"?" Hearing this, Zhu Wanting's eyes suddenly flashed with a strange light, if she remembered correctly, Qin Yue was playing "Liang Zhu" on the painting boat at that time?

"It's from Xiangyang Mansion?" Immediately, Zhu Wanting turned around and asked urgently.

"Back to the county lord, the person who came is from Xiangyang Mansion?" The maid replied with some surprise, she didn't expect Zhu Wanting to guess the origin of the piano master.

"Surname Qin? Or is it surnamed Li? Zhu Wanting's willow eyebrows suddenly frowned, and she asked a little nervously, except for Qin Yue and Li Hongyu, no one in the world should know about this "Liang Zhu", which made her a little excited.

"It seems to be surnamed Zhao." The maid shook her head, "As for what his name is, I don't know." ”

"Zhao?" Zhu Wanting was slightly stunned, she was quite surprised by this, is there anyone else who knows the song "Liang Zhu"?

"Come on, dress up the lord of this county, and the lord of this county will go to listen to the music!" After a deep groan, Zhu Wanting's eyes flashed cold, and she gave an order to the maids standing in the room, she wanted to see who it was, if she didn't guess wrong, the other party must have come for her.

Seeing this, the maid who came to invite Zhu Wanting bowed to Zhu Wanting, and left quickly to return to Zhu Yuting.

After learning the news that Zhu Wanting was coming, Zhao Xin and Rou'er couldn't help but glance at each other, their faces were full of relief, and the two of them finally saw Zhao Wanting after so much effort.

After waiting for about two teas, Zhu Wanting, who was dressed up, walked into the hall quickly, looking at Zhao Xin and Rou'er in the hall with a slight frown, she had never seen the two before, so she didn't know the identities of the two, and it seemed that she had never seen Zhao Xin and Rou'er in her impression.

"Sister, come, sit here." Seeing Zhu Wanting coming, Zhu Yuting smiled and patted a chair beside her, she thought that Zhu Wanting was not coming, but she didn't expect Zhu Wanting to rush over.

"County Lord, save my son-in-law." At this moment, Rou'er, who was standing in the hall, suddenly knelt on the ground with her legs bent, put down the violin in her hand, and pleaded loudly with her head to the ground.

Rou'er's move made everyone at the scene couldn't help but be taken aback, and they looked at each other, never imagined that Rou'er would kneel down to Zhu Wanting.

"Who is your son-in-law?" For some reason, Zhu Wanting suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart, and asked quietly.

"Li Hongyu, the head of the Xiangyang Mansion children's trial case." Hearing this, Rou'er raised her head and reported Li Hongyu's name with a concerned expression.

"Li Hongyu?" Zhu Wanting's heart suddenly chuckled, her face became a little pale, she knew that the person who came was related to Li Hongyu after hearing "Liang Zhu", it seems that Li Hongyu has encountered something big, otherwise these two people would not have tried their best to find him.

"What happened to the Li case?" Then, Zhu Wanting walked quickly to Rou'er and asked urgently.

"Back to the county lord, my son-in-law was kidnapped by gangsters on the way back to his house last night, and now there is no news, and I don't know if he is alive or dead." Rou'er's eyes couldn't help but be a little red, and she choked up and said to Zhu Wanting.

"How so!" Zhu Wanting was stunned when she heard this, this news really shocked her, you must know that Li Hongyu was rewarded by Emperor Wanli not long ago, who dared to touch him after eating the ambitious leopard?

"Do you know who did it?" Zhu Wanting's face showed a hint of panic, and after a deep groan, she pretended to be calm and asked Rou'er.

"Back to the county lord, I don't have the slightest clue yet." At this time, Zhao Xin, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth at the right time and said to Zhu Wanting in a deep voice, "However, those black-clothed men who robbed people are well-trained, and they don't take the head of the Li case to heart, so I think they are from the rich and noble family of Wuchang City!" ”

"A rich and noble family?" Zhu Wanting frowned slightly when she heard this, and then her eyes fell on Zhu Yuting who was sitting there.

According to Zhao Xin, the person who kidnapped Li Hongyu was both well-trained and not afraid of Li Hongyu's identity, so only the people from the Chu Wangfu in the entire Wuchang City dared to do this.

Moreover, Zhu Wanting only told Zhu Yuting about the painting boat, so Zhu Yuting undoubtedly had a motive to start.

"Sisters, that's all for today, let's meet again another day." Seeing this, Zhu Yuting clapped her hands and said to the rest of the girls.

"Farewell." Several girls knew that Zhu Yuting didn't want them to get involved in the robbery of the head of the Xiangyang Mansion Children's Trial, so they saluted Zhu Yuting and Zhu Wanting with interest, and then left quickly.

Among these girls at the scene, except for Zhu Yuting and Zhu Wanting, who are county lords, everyone else is the county lord, so they naturally have to salute the two.

Not only the county lords, but even the maids in the house were kicked out by Zhu Yuting, and it was obvious that the next thing could not be known to outsiders, otherwise what would Zhu Wanting's face be.

"Second sister, did you kidnap the head of the case?" After the people left, Zhu Wanting couldn't help but ask Zhu Yuting with concern, Zhu Yuting is the second daughter of Zhu Yunhan, the son of the King of Chu, and is one year older than Zhu Wanting, so Zhu Wanting naturally wants to call her second sister.

"I let people kidnap him, what is the use of someone who is so ungrateful, who likes the new and hates the old, who let him stay in the world!" Zhu Yuting did not deny it, and said after sneering.

"Second sister, you killed him?" Zhu Wanting's face suddenly changed when she heard this, and she asked urgently.

"You, you, he's humiliated you so much, and you're still worried about him." Zhu Yuting saw Zhu Wanting's discoloration, and couldn't help but shake her head and feel worthless for Zhu Wanting, and then said, "Don't worry, I'm too lazy to kill him, so as not to dirty my knife." ”

"Second sister, where is he? You're going to let him go. Zhu Wanting breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said to Zhu Yuting with embarrassment, she knew that Zhu Yuting arrested Li Hongyu to make her angry, but she didn't want Li Hongyu to be hurt.

"You worked tirelessly to save him, but this kid dared to take revenge and provoke you to cry for so long, if this matter spreads, what is the face of our royal family?" Zhu Yuting sneered and said coldly, "He can avoid the death penalty this time, but the living crime is inescapable, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, he still thinks that our royal women are easy to bully!" ”

"The two county lords, with their understanding of the head of the Li case, he is definitely not the kind of person who is unkind, and the reason why he does this must be a last resort." At this time, Zhao Xin, who was standing there, suddenly opened his mouth and said to Zhao Wanting and Zhao Yuting in a deep voice.

"Bitter?" Zhu Yuting sneered when she heard this, "Being able to get the favor of the county lord is a blessing that he has cultivated for eight lifetimes, and he is too late to be happy, where is there any hardship!" ”

"The county lord doesn't know that the head of the Li case has already been engaged." Zhao Xin knew that Zhu Yuting was prejudiced against Li Hongyu, so she opened her mouth to explain.

"What's this, just retire at that time, the county lord of Zhaoxiang is the favorite county lord of Prince Xiang, and he will definitely invite the emperor to marry at that time, this is a matter of glory to the ancestors." Zhu Yuting sneered disdainfully, "I think he deliberately bullied her because Lord Zhaoxiang was kind to her!" ”

"Have you ever heard of 'poor and lowly friends must not be forgotten, and the wives of the bad chaff will not go to court'?" Zhao Xin shook his head when he heard this, and said seriously, "Case Chief Li has been reading the books of sages since he was a child, how dare he look at the teachings of the sages? If he did that, wouldn't he become a villain who tended to be inflammatory, and how would he gain a foothold in Shilin in the future? ”

"Ridiculous, he's just engaged, where did the 'bad wife' come from, which law of the Ming Dynasty doesn't allow divorce?" Zhu Yuting was provoked, sneered and said to Zhao Xin, "If the county lord is not mistaken, you are the Zhao Xin who is in the same township as him, and you will naturally speak to him." ”

"County lord, the eldest husband has something to do, and he can't do it, the fiancée of the head of the Li case is virtuous and humble, and she has not violated the rule of seven outs. Zhao Xin had already prepared, and said with a serious expression, "Scholars make reputation like life, how could the head of the Li case do such a thing that is ridiculed." ”

"Then let the woman's family withdraw from the family, does she dare to compete with the county lord?" Zhu Yuting couldn't help frowning slightly when she heard this, and then said with a sneer.

"Second sister, I just admired Case Chief Li, and I didn't think about marrying him." At this time, Zhu Wanting couldn't help but speak, biting her lip and saying to Zhu Yuting, she has the pride and pride of the county lord, so how could she do such a heart-wrenching thing as forcing Qin Yue to withdraw from her family?

"Second sister, you better let go of the head of the Li case, he ...... He is a weak scholar, but he can't stand the toss. As she spoke, Zhu Wanting looked at Zhu Yuting with concern, and her words were full of pleading.

"You, you!" Zhu Yuting couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this, and shook her head, Zhu Wanting was hurt by Li Hongyu like this, and even spoke for Li Hongyu, it seems that she is really a woman.

"Come on, go to the water dungeon and bring the man I caught last night." Then, Zhu Yuting opened her mouth and shouted loudly to the guards standing at the door, she could see it, Zhu Wanting couldn't forget Li Hongyu in her heart, in case Li Hongyu had a bad word, she wouldn't be able to explain it to Zhu Wanting.

"Water dungeon?" Hearing this, Zhu Wanting, Zhao Xin and Rou'er's faces changed, now it's September, the weather has already turned cold, it's no wonder that you don't get sick after soaking in cold water for so long.
