Chapter Ninety-Five: The Beauty Trap

Xin Zhi never thought that Li Lian would suddenly appear here, and she stopped in front of the eldest princess's car.

From the words of the people around her, she learned that this eldest princess was the sister of the emperor of Qi and a kind person, she was gentle and benevolent. Every month, she will give food to help people in the red maple temple in the western suburbs, and the people of the capital have a very high opinion of her.

If you want to say that the Bodhisattva is alive, it is the king and the eldest princess who are described.

The procession of the carriage was disturbed by Li Lian and naturally stopped, Li Lian finished the request with tears on her face, and glanced anxiously at the car, the golden brocade covered the door, and the surroundings were quiet.

At this time, a woman wearing a delicate narrow-sleeved palace dress walked out from behind the guards, her goose egg face, her eyebrows were frowning, her towering bun was noble and generous, she came to Li Lian's face paint, her expression was solemn, and her voice was high-pitched and calm, "Li girl, you crashed into the princess's carriage, do you know that you committed a crime?" ”

Li Lian hurriedly prostrated on the ground and kowtowed, "The folk girl knows that she has collided with His Highness, but there is no other way!" I wanted to go to the government before, but Wu Shidao, a friend of the people's daughter, also disappeared inexplicably three months ago, and the government has not found anyone so far, Your Highness ......" She knelt down two steps and said in a high voice, "Please help the people's daughter!" ”

The crowd on both sides began to discuss, this case of missing people has actually spread in the capital, after all, more than a dozen people are missing, and you can see the portraits of missing people posted everywhere on the notice boards in the city. Some have even been yellowed and tattered, covered with new portraits.

For a long time, Xin Zhi seemed to hear the people inside sigh softly.

The sigh was as soft as a spring breeze blowing through the heart, like pity for all the encounters in the world, but helpless.

"Hua Gu." Jun and Princess in the carriage spoke up.

As Xin Zhi thought, the eldest princess's voice was as described by everyone, gentle and solemn. She could clearly feel that the person inside was a very gentle woman.

The maidservant girl named Hua Gu walked from the front to the window of the carriage, and the people inside seemed to say something to her, Hua Gu nodded and bowed, put her hands on her forehead and slowly stepped back.

After exiting the carriage window, she straightened up and walked towards Li Lian without hurrying, Hua Gu's expression was solemn, and her voice was high-pitched but calm. She looked at Li Liandao, who was kneeling on the ground,

"The eldest princess is very heartbroken when she hears about the matter of Li's husband, and she will definitely ask for an explanation for you, please go back!" After saying that, she took out a money bag from her sleeve and put it in Li Lian's hand, she was slightly stunned, tears couldn't stop flowing down again, and she knocked heavily on the ground a few times, "Thank you, Your Highness!" Thank you, Your Highness! ”

After saying that, she lifted her dress and retreated to the side and couldn't bend over, and when Hua Gu saw this, she shouted again, "Go home!" ”

The guards began to move forward again, and the whole team was still solemn, as if nothing had happened before. When the princess's carriage went away, the lively crowd gradually dispersed, and Li Lian on the side was still kneeling on the ground.

Xin Zhi walked through the crowd and walked in front of her, crouched down and looked at her silently. Feeling that there was someone beside her, Li Lian raised her head. The girl who found out that it was the girl who was holding her hand just now was surprised at first, and then quickly covered her emotions and said coldly, "You don't need to pretend!" ”

After saying that, she barely got up, because Fang just kowtowed a little heavily, the skin on Li Lian's forehead was cracked, and blood was oozing, she stood up too fast and her emotions were too intense before, and suddenly a black body in front of her softened.

Xin Zhi hurriedly hugged Li Lian, but she didn't know where her house was, so she had to carry the person back to the inn.

In the beautiful room, Xin Zhi gently rubbed the forehead of the woman lying on the bed with a hot towel, and the dust and blood stains on it had been cleaned up. Li Lian still closed her eyes tightly, showing no signs of waking up.

She looked at the woman carefully, she was about thirty years old, her skin was very white but rough, and her eyebrows were thick but frowned. The face is slightly chubby, and the lips are dry and tightly closed.

Xin Zhi looked at her, and really wanted to reach out and rub her eyebrows away, so that the poor girl would not be so sad.

Li Lian was busy making a living at home, while her husband Wang Mouse was squandering his hard-earned money outside, Xin Zhi sighed and looked out the window, she thought of Shen Fei, and she didn't know what she was doing with that Qiao Niang at this time...... As soon as he remembered the situation when he let him go back, his heart was so depressed that he couldn't lift his breath.

Villain.

She whispered in her heart, but she regretted it after scolding...... She was reluctant, Shen Fei was still different from this Wang Defa after all. For example, they didn't marry like this couple, and she wasn't Shen Fei's wife, so before that, Xin Zhi felt as if she shouldn't be angry.

"Hmm......" Li Lian on the bed made a faint sound, opened her eyes, and found that she was not in her own home, and suddenly sobered up, she got up and quickly looked around, and finally her eyes fell on Xin Zhi.

"Is that you?"

recalled that he hadn't eaten for a long time because he was looking for Wang Defa, and he was too emotional, so he fainted on the road. It was the woman next to her who saved herself, but thinking that she had helped Qiao Niang's little deal with her before, Li Lian was angry again.

Seeing that Li Lian woke up, Xin Zhi immediately poured a glass of warm water from the table and handed it to her, Li Lian took the cup and hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and drank it.

After drinking, her hand holding the cup hesitated a little, "You... Although you saved me, don't think about how good I am to you. ”

Xin Zhi didn't care, and she didn't think about asking Li Lian to be good to her, but after all, it didn't seem right when people were dizzy, and she didn't think much about bringing people back. Now that she's awake, let her go.

So he got up, walked towards the door, took out some of the qi-boosting pills he brought from his package and handed them to Li Lian, "Eat." Without saying a word, he turned around and prepared to go out.

She thought that it would be better for Li Lian to avoid it if she didn't like herself.

Li Lian looked at the medicine bottle in her hand, her face was slightly red, and the long-lost warmth instantly defeated her pretended to be strong, and she cried again, still in front of a strange woman.

Xin Zhi looked at Li Lian in surprise, and saw that she was crying so much that she couldn't breathe, so she hurriedly handed over the previous handkerchief and looked at her at a loss.

"Don't... Crying ...... "She was already incapable of speaking, and this anxiety was even more incoherent.

Finding that Xin Zhi seemed to be a little different from ordinary people, Li Lian raised her head and carefully looked at the person in front of her, she was born with a delicate appearance, although her behavior was quite inconsistent with her age, but she had a sense of closeness that people liked.

Before, the inviolable majesty she exuded when she dragged herself turned into a stunned green full of good feelings.

Li Lian took a breath and handed her the cup in her hand and said, "I'm tired of the girl and pour me another glass of water... May I? ”

Seeing this, Xin Zhi was still unwilling, and immediately filled another cup, but Li Lian didn't drink it, but looked at Xin Zhi and said, "Fang Cai's words are a little vulgar, and I hope the girl will forgive me." ”

Hearing that the hedgehog in front of her had a big turn in his attitude towards him, Xin Zhi immediately shook his head and said, "Forgive me, forgive me." ”

She saw that Li Lian's always tightly knit brows were relaxed, and she looked very comfortable. Li Lian said, "The girl may know why I was so impatient before...... My husband, the King Defa... He's missing. ”

I didn't expect Li Lian to mention the disappearance of Wang Mouse, Xin Zhi felt that this matter was inseparable from other disappearance cases before, and now since Li Lian is willing to say it, it is also excellent.

"Half a year ago, he wasn't like that." Recalling the changes in her husband, Li Lian sighed.

According to Li Lian's confession, she and Wang Defa got married two years ago.

Li Lian is a poor but strong woman, her family is poor, her father died of illness when she was a child, her mother raised her alone, at that time Li Lian in order to help her mother maintain the family's livelihood everywhere to find work.

In this way, she went to a restaurant to work as a helper and met Wang Defa, who was also a partner there.

According to her, although Wang Defa's mouth was still a little slippery before, he was not a bad person, the two became acquainted with each other after coming and going, and the owner of the restaurant did not pay much, but it was enough to make a living, but at this moment, the mother at home was sick again, and the burden of life fell on Li Lian alone.

Even if she tried hard, her mother still died of illness, and Li Lian, who was dragged down by life, had no money to bury, so she had to grit her teeth and sell herself to bury her mother.

Li Lian's appearance can be regarded as passable, but at this moment, she was taken by a deflated San, who killed his wife and was ready to buy Li Lian, at this moment, Wang Defa scraped together the money out of nowhere and gave it to Li Lian before the deflated San.

In this way, the two naturally became relatives.

Although life is not rich, it is getting better and better, but just half a year ago, Wang Defa met Qiao Niang, who was chased by creditors.

Wang Defa's character is not bad, and when he saw such a delicate girl being chased by creditors, he rescued people.

Li Lian didn't expect this Qiao Niang to be an uneasy and kind-hearted snake, she knew that Wang Defa was short of money and tricked people into gambling in the casino. The person in the gambling house is good with Qiao Niang, the first few gambling money Wang Defa has won a lot, the money in the pocket feels that people are a little higher, with a new person in his arms, where can he still see his wife who has been in trouble together?

He felt that Qiao Niang was virtuous and gentle and brought prosperity to himself, and insisted on taking her as a concubine. Li Lian felt strange why her husband seemed to be a different person, so she searched for a day to follow him, and then the adultery between the two was broken.

"If that Qiao Niang is a good person, I have no opinion that he wants to be a concubine, but I have clearly heard that Qiao Niang specializes in deceiving people to gamble, and her character is corrupt.

Thinking of this, she sighed deeply, "I told Wang Defa, but he didn't believe me and said that I was a poisonous woman......"

"Later, he not only lost his gambling in the gambling house, but was even arrested and imprisoned for stealing, and I asked someone to redeem Wang Defa, but he never returned to this home."

Xin Zhi thought of something and suddenly spoke, "Qiao Niang, communicating with the gambling house?" ”

Speaking of Qiao Niang, Li Lian's face changed again, "Yes, I have a sister, and her husband's eldest brother also goes in and out of the gambling house all the year round, and she is the one who told me about Qiao Niang." ”

"It's a pity... Three months ago, the eldest brother of the Kong family disappeared, and she and her husband went to the county magistrate to report the case, but there is no result until now...... That's why I made this decision to stop the princess's carriage......" Thinking of this, Li Lian was still very afraid.

Xin Zhi was stunned, the eldest brother of the Kong family? Isn't it the Kong Zhuang who disappeared three months ago?
