Zhen Maochang really couldn't say a word, he couldn't speak.

After he left, An Yunbo heard the news that Zhen's father was here, and immediately made a fuss.

But because he didn't eat, he didn't have much strength in his body, so he collapsed after a while.

Father An was full of anger when he found out: "Whatever he wants, don't pay attention to him, just wait for a while for him to think about it." ”

The two families have not intersected since then, Chu Jiao knows that such a situation is really embarrassing, but Zhen Huo's body may not be able to hold on.

begged Qin Shao to take him out secretly, and when the two saw each other, they both cried and hugged each other.

Chu Jiao glanced at the two of them and was also very emotional.

"I know, I know, but how can you not eat?"

"Aren't you the same? I have you in my heart, and you have me in my heart. ”

The two cried for a while before wiping away their tears.

"You don't have to be anxious about this matter, my father's disagreement with the matter between us is only temporary, he must not have seen my determination yet, I believe that as long as I am given some time, he will definitely agree."

Zhen Huo heard this but didn't know how to say it, so he had to look tearful again, and An Yunbo felt distressed when he saw it.

"Don't cry, it's a big deal, it's a big deal that we elope, I will take you to the ends of the earth and won't let you suffer a little grievance."

After hearing this sincerity, Zhen Huo was also moved in his heart.

"Calm down, it's not for you to run away when you meet now, both of you are the hearts and minds of the family, if something happens, I can't afford it." Chu Jiao was unprecedentedly solemn.

Both of them were stunned, and both lowered their heads.

"In my opinion, you might as well pretend to be relieved of this matter first, and then you can come to a long time, after all, now you can't even go out, so what can you talk about in the future?" Chu Jiao said.

Both of them felt that it made sense, so they agreed that they would work hard in the future, and then stabilize their respective fathers.

After this night, the fathers of both families were happy, and I don't know why their children suddenly seemed to be enlightened.

Chu Jiao and Qin Shao got into the carriage and left Yongzhou.

At this time, the weather happened to Chu Jiao's mood and a little better, it was a sunny day, the sun shining on people's bodies would not make people feel spicy, but only make people feel warm and comfortable, the breeze blew the hair, and the hair shaved over the face from time to time, making people's faces itchy.

Qin Shao saw Chu Jiao sitting on the rickety carriage with her eyes closed, and had a teasing thought in her heart, so he approached her slightly.

When she felt that someone was blocking her sunlight, Chu Jiao opened her eyes, and what she saw was a handsome face, although there was no movement on her face, but from her ears to her neck, it showed a faint pink, if you don't look carefully in this sunlight, you can't see it clearly.

"I'm afraid the sun will sting your eyes, so I'll help you get out of the way."

Chu Jiao always had a sense of impropriety when she listened to his words, she ignored him and turned into the carriage.

Qin Shao shrugged his shoulders and chuckled, pursed his somewhat dry lips, and then followed into the carriage.

But the carriage became more and more bumpy, only to hear Xiu Ying say outside: "Further forward is Yaotai, Yaotai has a bad topography and many mountain roads, so there are some bumps and I hope the two masters will sit firmly." ”

Chu Jiao didn't say anything when she listened.

"By the way, there is one more thing that my subordinates want to talk about, Yaotai's current realm is... Uh, yes..."

At this time, the carriage suddenly jolted, Chu Jiao shook slightly, and saw that he hit the corner of the carriage, but was pulled into his arms by Qin Shao, and Chu Jiao also subconsciously hugged him.

The corners of Qin Shao's lips touched Chu Jiao's forehead, and the feeling was like a long drought and a rainstorm.

Chu Jiao wanted to break free of his embrace, but he wouldn't let go of her no matter what.

"What's the matter, talking so much?" Qin Shao asked the people outside.

Xiuying said: "According to the investigation of his subordinates, Qiangui He and Luo Min are in this realm, and the saint is also aware of this matter, but he did not send anyone to stop it. ”

Chu Jiao suddenly became serious, since she is here, let's meet her.

When I first arrived at Yaotai, as soon as I entered the city gate, the carriage of the group was taken away, needless to say, I also knew that it was the handiwork of a thousand ghosts, and they didn't say anything, after all, they were friends before, not to mention Luo Min's relationship here.

After arriving at the mansion of the thousand ghosts, Chu Jiao was helped out of the carriage by Qin Shao, she gave him a blank look, and he didn't say anything but held her hand.

Because of his height, Chu Jiao could only stand on tiptoe and then said in his ear: "Don't go too far." ”

Qin Shao's hand never let go.

When the two of them entered the courtyard, they found that the repair here was similar to the palace, and the thousand ghosts were from Fanbang, and it was self-evident who repaired this garden like this.

The landscapes, flowers and plants in the garden are all well cared for, and even Chu Jiao can't help but look sideways.

When the subordinate saw Chu Jiao's eyes, he couldn't help but say: "This back garden has always been taken care of by the lady and the adult, and the two often prune the flowers and plants here. ”

Chu Jiao listened to the tone of this person as if it was not bad, and she was a little relieved, after all, Luo Min's father at the beginning...

Before Chu Jiao walked inside, she heard the pleasant sound of the flute in the garden in front of her, the sound of the flute was clear and graceful, very moving, and Chu Jiao and the others followed the sound to find it.

I saw a man and a woman, in the gazebo not far away, the man was not strong, wearing a blue robe, with his back to everyone, black hair and blue crown.

And the woman is Luo Min, she is wearing a light veil, her posture is graceful, hovering like a swallow in front of the man, her face is full of smiles and happiness.

And the man's flute sound also began to be happy, and Luo Min's dancing posture was really excellent.

Chu Jiao only knew that Luo Min was rude, but she didn't know that she also had such a tender side.

If there was no one beside the two, Chu Jiao did not come forward to disturb them, and it was not until a while that the two of them stopped.

At this time, the man took Luo Min into his arms, put the jade flute on his waist, and then turned around and saw everyone.

"When the guest arrived, I was really disappointed." Thousand Ghosts smiled slightly.

Only then did Chu Jiao and the others see his appearance clearly, his face was extremely small, his apricot eyes looked a little harmless to humans and animals, and his lips were slightly thick, and he was still very handsome when combined.

"Don't look at it." Qin Shao protected Chu Jiao's eyes at this time, and his tone was slightly sour.

After all, he didn't understand the previous thoughts of this guy, even if he was with Luo Min now, he had to guard against it.

When Luo Min saw the two of them, there was a slight change in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down.

"Hahaha, now I see that the two of you are hiding here, this is called, only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals, right?" Qin Shao quietly protected Chu Jiao behind him, and then said with a smile.

The thousand ghosts also had a smile on their faces: "Please sit inside, two of you." ”

In a few moments, several people were already sitting in the inner room.

"It's an iced fruit, and it tastes good under such a big sun."

The thousand ghosts clapped their hands, and the maidservants below brought something.

They are the freshest fruits, one of which is eye-catching, after all, lychees are rare in the Central Plains, and they need to be sent from far away, and the most rare thing is that lychees can be preserved so fresh in this summer weather.

"This lychee tastes really good." Qin Shao said meaningfully.

Qiangui said: "Hahaha, this is an expedited return of eight hundred miles, and it has exhausted several batches of BMWs, but it is worth it to be able to get this touch of coolness in this summer." ”

Saying that, the thousand ghosts fed a lychee to Luo Min with their own hands.

Luo Min smiled coquettishly and snuggled into his arms.

Chu Jiao didn't have too many worries when she saw such a scene, she smiled slightly, and her beautiful eyes were bright: "You don't look like a Fanbang person at all now, and you are still wearing Han clothes, and those who don't know still think you are Han." ”

Thousand Ghosts clasped her hand: "I did something wrong in the past, but fortunately she doesn't care about her past suspicions, as long as I can keep her by my side, no matter what kind of changes I make, it's worth it." ”

These words were really affectionate, and Chu Jiao was even more relieved at the moment: "Also, it is best if she can ignore the past." ”

"I haven't seen her for a long time, I wonder if I can go over to accompany her today?"

She smiled softly, and her tone was like that of a long-married lady who was coquettish to her husband.

The thousand ghosts are obviously very popular with Luo Min: "Okay, good, whatever you want." ”

He turned his head to look at Qin Shao: "It seems that only the two of us can stay in the empty room tonight." ”

Qin Shao smiled and said nothing.

By ten o'clock in the evening, Chu Jiao and Luo Min were sleeping together, but at this time, the thousand ghosts also arrived in Qin Shao's room.

"Late at night, I hope you forgive me." Thousand Ghosts bowed and said.

Qin Shao glanced at his changes and said, "When did you also learn these red tapes?" ”

The thousand ghosts straightened up, although his figure was thin but very tall, and there was a special temperament in standing there quietly.

"How did you come to the realm of Yaotai? I think the topography of Yaotai is not good, and the products are not rich, I want to know, once your ambition was so big, why, now you have changed sex? ”

He didn't agree when Thousand Ghosts wanted to cooperate with him before, and he didn't think a man would give up because of that.

The thousand ghosts put away the smile on their faces, and when they really saw his face, Qin Shao felt more and more that this person was in danger.

He smiled casually and said, "Aren't adults also here for their beloved?"

So, what's impossible? ”

Qin Shao nodded: "Yes, Brother Qian's words are reasonable, since you are here, it is better to have a few drinks before leaving." ”

The two drank until late at night, and when Chu Jiao and Luo Min were together, Chu Jiao saw that she didn't talk as much as before, so she took the initiative to talk.

"I wonder how you've been doing all this time?"

A touch of pain flashed in Luo Min's eyes, but because she was facing away from Chu Jiao, Chu Jiao didn't see it.

She just pinched her gentle tone and smiled back: "It's good now, as for the past, it's okay." ”

"Well, I'm happy for you to see you like this."

Chu Jiao said sincerely, Luo Min looked at her eyes, she moved her lips, the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and what she wanted to say finally became: "Well, what about you, are you okay?" Yao Chi, I'm afraid I still like you, right? You know, I used to be so angry about it. ”

"Don't make fun of me, let her go through the old things."

Luo Min nodded: "It's okay, then go to bed early, I'll take you to Yaotai early tomorrow morning for a good visit, this rice noodles are extremely authentic, you will definitely like it if you eat it." ”

The two of them just lay on the same couch, and although their thoughts were different, they were not as tense as before.

Chu Jiao fell asleep, but at night, she heard the people next to her say something nonsense, she hurriedly opened her eyes, and saw that Luo Min's face was full of beads of sweat, and she quickly woke people up.

"What's going on?" Chu Jiao asked with some concern, helping her wipe the sweat from her face.

Luo Min calmed down, her eyes were gloomy, and she said casually: "It may be a nightmare, and it is also a common thing, don't be surprised." ”

"Shall I take your pulse?" Chu Jiao said.

Luo Min pressed her down: "Don't make such a fuss, I'm fine." ”

Seeing that Luo Min insisted in her heart, she was not easy to force.

The next day, the four of them got up early, and coincidentally, Chu Jiao and Qin Shao wore the same aqua blue robe, they were originally handsome, and the two of them stood together and were really a good couple.

Qin Shao naturally held her hand, but Chu Jiao secretly broke free.

I only heard him say in her ear, "Do you want the two of them to know that we are not going well?" ”

Chu Jiao frowned, and at this time the thousand ghosts said: "The terrain of Yaotai is not good, and the carriage is afraid that it is inconvenient, so the horses have been prepared, and they are all mild-mannered." ”

Chu Jiao has been by Luo Min's side since she got on the horse, as if she was deliberately avoiding him.

The two men were in front, and the thousand ghosts glanced at Chu Jiao behind them, and then said slowly: "It seems that someone is not going well?" ”

Qin Shao looked like he was winning, and it seemed that Chu Jiao couldn't escape from his palm at all: "It's common for women to have a little temper. ”

"Hahaha, I think adults are sometimes overconfident, this woman's heart, if she dies, then I'm afraid even ten cows won't be able to pull it back." After the thousand ghosts said this, they rode their horses and whipped forward.

"By the way, I haven't seen the adults here when I came here, so I don't know how the security is here? What about the folk customs? Are the people doing well? ”

"Look at you like this, where do you seem to be out to play? It's like I'm out to do business.

Everything here is very good, but the terrain of Yaotai is not good, and the people have no harvest from farming, so ....."

Luo Min's words were self-evident, and Chu Jiao didn't ask deeply.

But it's good to look at the people on the street, but Chu Jiao has formed a habit, and when she comes to a place, she must check whether the place is reliable.

After a whole day of playing, a few people came to the largest and only riverside on the Yaotai side.

I thought that nothing was good here, so this only river became the way for many people to live.

There were several very large boats by the river, and from time to time there were sounds of delight.

Although the boat that Chu Jiao and the others were sitting on was also very large, it always seemed that something was missing on this boat.

At this time, the sky has darkened, a bright moon hangs lonely in the sky, the women of the red mansion in the river have begun to show their talents, the boat is also hung with red and willow green ribbons, and occasionally you can hear the rampant laughter of those rich people and the shy voice of women.

At this time, there was a little fog at night, and it was still a little hazy for a while.

Chu Jiao looked at Jiang Shang's life, but she also felt that it was okay.

She turned her head and asked Luo Min, "Then do you plan to stay in Yaotai all the time in the future?" ”

Luo Min nodded: "Maybe, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" ”

As she spoke, she glanced at the thousand ghosts, and the thousand ghosts took her in their arms, and the two made an intimate gesture.

Just when it was peaceful up and down, everyone suddenly heard a "poof", as if something had fallen into the water.

But soon the voice was drowned out by the sound of bamboo, but the woman's scream could not be faked.

When she heard that, Chu Jiao knew that things were not simple, and half an hour later, the magistrate of Yaotai came.

His name is Zheng Siyuan, he doesn't look like he is in his forties, but he looks energetic, because he is in a hurry and is willing, he is only wearing civilian clothes, and he recognizes Qin Shao and others at once.

"I've seen..."Zheng Siyuan wanted to speak, but saw Qin Shao make a silent gesture, so he began to investigate the case and stepped forward to command.

"You're the woman who screamed? Who just fell? ”

Zheng Siyuan asked, you must know that the people who come here for recreation are either rich or expensive, so he felt a little headache for a while.

The woman's name was Lingling, her voice was hoarse with fright, and when she looked up and saw that the person who came was Zheng Siyuan, the whole person was frightened, and she quickly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

He stammered, "Yes... Be... Be. ”

"Who is it? Why don't you hurry up? The official next to Zheng Siyuan held a big knife on Lingling's neck.

Lingling immediately coaxed: "It's Zheng Gongzi..."

As she spoke, her voice became smaller and smaller, Zheng Siyuan was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he frowned and pulled Lingling's neck and asked, "Are you saying it again." ”

"The little woman didn't dare to lie, it was indeed Zheng Gongzi who fell just now."

Zheng Siyuan's face was embarrassed: "Fish it for me!" ”

Soon the officers and men surrounded the place, and then quickly dispersed the people to the river, and then the ships of the officers and soldiers were responsible for salvaging.

Everyone knows that he is the son of Lord Zheng, so these people can't wait to burrow themselves directly into the bottom of the river.

But I'm afraid that if something happens, Lord Zheng will blame himself.

This is not a trivial matter.

After two hours, a male corpse was finally salvaged, and Zheng Siyuan was in tears when he saw it, but he quickly discovered the abnormality.

Because the son of the Zheng family is not yet twenty years old, and the person who was salvaged looks to be almost forty years old, and the clothes on his body are about to tear because they have been soaked for a long time.

"Continue to salvage, if you can't catch anyone, don't come back today, arrest the woman immediately, and bring back all the people involved in this case."

Chu Jiao and his party naturally followed back.

This time the matter is not over yet, Chu Jiao naturally wants to make it clear.

But this time the matter is related to Zheng Siyuan's son, and I am afraid it is not so easy to handle.

When he hadn't found his son yet, Chu Jiao was looking at the corpse of a man in his forties.

Looking at the appearance of being soaked, it should have been two or three days ago, Chu Jiao checked his body again.

"The inside of this man's teeth was very clean, and his face was purple, as if he had been poisoned and thrown into the river."

Qin Shao looked at the corpse and fell into deep thought: "Has anyone come to report the case in the past few days?" ”

Zheng Siyuan shook his head: "Nothing has happened in the past few days. ”

"That's even more strange, someone died but no one reported to the official, hurry down and check the identity of this person." Qin Shao said to the Xiuying below.

Xiu Ying turned and left.

Soon Zheng Gongzi's body was found, and everyone's attention was immediately diverted.

Zheng Gongzi was completely out of breath at this time, and Zheng Siyuan's face was sad.

Chu Jiao alone could not determine the cause of Zheng Gongzi's death, so he invited another servant.

After taking a closer look, Zheng Siyuan was angry: "What is the result?" I want to see who is going to kill my son! ”

However, he carefully examined it several times before he came out of it.

After he came out, he glanced at the Thousand Ghost Couple at the end, and Chu Jiao felt that he was dazzled.

Then he immediately lowered his head again and said, "I have checked the cause of Zheng Gongzi's death, because he drank too much wine and was a little delirious.

The villain speculated that it was very likely that Childe was close to the river when he drank too much, and then he stumbled and fell. ”

Zheng Siyuan frowned: "Is this serious?" ”

He bowed his head: "The villain doesn't dare to lie." ”

Zheng Siyuan has no place to vent the fire in his belly, this is his eldest son.

"That must have been the woman who was confused and quickly beheaded her." Zheng Siyuan said angrily.

"It's rude to go down just now, but the lower official is really sad in his heart, and it's hard to control himself for a while, please forgive me." Zheng Siyuan said.

This matter seems to be over like this today, but Chu Jiao still felt that something was wrong in his heart on the way back, if he accidentally fell, why didn't he have any traces of struggle?

If Lingling killed it, it is not impossible.

"I'm going to see Lingling."

When Chu Jiao and Qin Shao arrived, Lingling was shrinking in the corner.

"Don't be afraid, Lord Zheng has already decided that this matter has something to do with you, so you will definitely die if you don't dawn tomorrow."

Lingling immediately became scared, she was the top brand, and she really didn't want to lose her life because of this incident.
