Chapter 158: Married
Yun Rongjue's investigation of the unsolved case 30 years ago has attracted much attention, and there are occasional rumors during this period, sometimes saying that Yun Rongjue has found important clues and evidence, and it is very likely to solve the case. Sometimes it is said that Yun Rongjue has fallen into a dead chess.
Yun Rongjue was in the mansion, and most of the time he was stuck in the study, except for Yu Lie guarding the side, only Jiang Wu was allowed to enter and leave the study.
In this regard, Zhang Ruo was extremely dissatisfied, but her dissatisfaction could only be vented in her own Qixia Garden.
"Princess, let's go back to the house." Fu Dong looked at Jiang Sumo, who had been standing in the courtyard of the study for nearly half an hour, and persuaded.
Jiang Sumo looked at the candlelight in the study, and the figure of the person inside was occasionally reflected in the window. Counting, she hasn't seen Yun Rongjue for a long time.
Yun Rongjue was busy investigating the case, and he didn't have much time to come back to the palace, and even when he came back, he plunged into the study until late at night. When she saw Yun Rongjue, she mostly glanced at her in a hurry.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Sumo sighed lightly, slowly retracted his gaze, and turned around, "I don't know, Your Highness, how is this matter investigated." ”
"With His Highness's cleverness, it shouldn't be difficult." Whisk said.
A strange look welled up in Jiang Sumo's eyes.
"Princess."
At this time, the little guy hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words in Jiang Sumo's ear.
Jiang Sumo's eyes sank slightly when he heard this. Fu Dong looked at her and asked, "Princess, the side concubine is bold, do we want to ......?"
Jiang Sumo raised his hand, shook his head, and glanced at the little guy beside him, "Treat it as if you didn't see it, let her go." ”
The little guy bowed his head and turned to leave.
Fu Dong was puzzled and asked, "Why is this princess?" If you tell His Royal Highness everything about Concubine Zhang, His Royal Highness's investigation will go more smoothly, and this matter can be resolved as soon as possible. ”
It wasn't until he walked to Su Xue Pavilion that Jiang Su Mo slowly spoke, "Do you think I'm strange in the winter, sometimes tell Your Highness, and sometimes let it go." ”
Breeze nodded.
"The matter between His Royal Highness and the Empress Dowager is a game, and I actually hope that His Royal Highness can win." Jiang Sumo said.
Blowing winter puzzled, "Then why are you ......?"
Jiang Sumo lowered his eyes slightly, "You know, this game is not only a game of power between the Empress Dowager and Her Royal Highness, it also involves ......."
Jiang Sumo didn't finish speaking, and the winter was clear.
"In my heart, I am also conflicted." Jiang Sumo said.
"That's why the princess repeats this." Winter's understanding.
Jiang Sumo smiled helplessly, "This matter has dragged on for a long time, especially her matter, there may be another change." ”
……
Inside the Royal Gardens of the Royal Palace.
Jiang Yuyan had an expectant smile on her face, and finally Chu Yin agreed to let her go to Changle Palace to see Yun Pei today.
"Jieyu, slow down, watch your step." Mo Bao helped Jiang Yuyan, who was in a hurry.
"I haven't seen her for more than a month, Pei'er should have grown up again." Jiang Yuyan thought about the appearance of the little guy, and became more and more impatient.
"That's a certainty, children grow up fast." Mo Bao helped Jiang Yuyan, and when he looked up, he saw two figures not far away, "Jieyu, look, isn't that the Queen Mother?" ”
Jiang Yuyan raised his head, and sure enough, in the corner of the front door, there was Chu Yin, and there was an unfamiliar face, and the two seemed to be talking about something.
"What is the Empress Dowager doing here at this time?" Jiang Yuyan felt a little strange.
Jiang Yuyan slowly walked towards Chu Yin, and Mo Bao subconsciously grabbed her, "Jieyu, what are you doing?" ”
Jiang Yuyan made a shushing gesture towards Mobao, and then slowly approached.
Jiang Yuyan didn't meet Chu Yin directly, but listened quietly.

Regent's Palace, Study. Jiang Wu brought the boiled soup, and Yun Rongjue and Yu Lie were discussing things.
"Your Highness, let's have some soup." She served a bowl and also served a bowl to Yu Lie.
"I don't need to." Yu Lie subconsciously refused.
"It's okay, you're also tired these days, drink some soup to replenish your body, otherwise your health is not good, how can you continue to investigate the case." Jiang Wu insisted.
Yun Rongjue glanced at Yu Lie, "She gives it to you, you can drink it." ”
Yu Lie bowed, took the soup bowl and thanked him.
Jiang Wu was afraid of disturbing the two, so he left the study after delivering the soup.
Yun Rongjue looked at the case file in his hand, and a piece of paper fell into his sight, "What is this?" Yu Lie put down the bowl and looked at it and explained.
Yun Rongjue looked at the small paper in his hand and unfolded it.
He stood up slowly, "Your Highness, can you believe this?" ”
Yun Rongjue walked to the candlestick, and the paper was lit among the flames, "She doesn't need to lie to us. ”
"Then we're ......"
"We'll go tomorrow."
Early the next morning, Yun Rongjue and Yu Lie left the palace with people, and this trip took two days.
When the two came back, they were just in time for Chu Yin to discuss things with the courtiers, and the Xuanshu Hall was very lively. The people outside didn't know what was going on in the Xuanshu Palace, they only knew that Yun Rongjue and Chu Yin had repeatedly faced each other, and finally when Chu Yin came out of the Xuanshu Palace, his face was extremely bad, while Yun Rongjue was the opposite.
The atmosphere in Changle Palace was sluggish, Chu Yin had a calm face, and no one dared to say a word.
The game between Chu Yin and Yun Rongjue was bound to win and win, but Yun Rongjue actually had this ability, and she repeatedly pulled the thread, and even let him find out so much.
If Yun Rongjue wins, she will have to give up the rights in her hand, as well as the girl......
Chu Yin squinted, and there was a deep calculation in his eyes.
Yun Rongjue and Chu Yin played against each other and gained the upper hand, which also made this gamble more interesting, and all the ministers in the court were curious, wanting to know who the final winner would be.
"Your Highness, as long as we find this key person again, and the things in this series are connected, there will be results!" Yu Lie said.
The two went out early this morning, for this key person, and they took a lot of pains.
"Your Highness!"
Suddenly, there was a sound behind them, Yun Rongjue and Yu Lie turned their heads, and saw Nanfu running over in a hurry.
Yun Rongjue's eyes were slightly cold, "Something?" ”
Nan Fuping was out of breath, but fortunately, she found it!
"Your Highness, slave maid...... The slave has something to tell, Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu she ......"
Yun Rongjue's eyes froze, "What's wrong with her?!" ”
After Yun Rongjue hurriedly left Yu Lie behind, he hurried back to the palace.
Jiang Sumo was a little surprised to see Yun Rongjue coming back at this time, "Didn't Your Highness go out to do something?" How did you come back so soon? ”
Yun Rongjue's face was gloomy, "What about Jiang Wu?" ”
Jiang Sumo's expression was stunned, and his eyes rolled slightly, "Your Highness, what are you ......?"
"This king asks you, where is Jiang Wu?! Was she taken away by the Empress Dowager?! Yun Rongjue suppressed his anger and asked.
Jiang Sumo blinked and nodded, "Yes...... An hour ago, the Empress Dowager had someone summon her to the palace," she looked up at him, "Your Highness, have you come back for this?" The Empress Dowager is looking for her, probably because she has something to say, so you don't have to be in such a hurry. ”
An hour ago......
Yun Rongjue frowned, turned around and walked towards the outside of the mansion, behind him was Jiang Sumo's urgent call, but he didn't pay any attention to it.
Yun Rongjue hurried into the palace and met Chu Yin.
Chu Yin was slightly surprised for a moment when he saw Yun Rongjue, but quickly regained his composure.
"What's the matter with the regent coming to mourn the house in such a hurry?" She asked.
Yun Rongjue didn't have the leisure to go around in circles with Chu Yin, and asked Jiang Wu bluntly.
"What about her? If the Empress Dowager has nothing else to do, let her go back with her sons. Yun Rongjue said.
Chu Yin stared at Yun Rongjue with a cold face, "Regent, the mourning family is the empress dowager of Da Liang, your queen mother, is it too inappropriate for you to talk to the mourning family in such a tone because of a girl?!" ”
"Erchen just doesn't want to waste each other's time, what about the Empress Dowager?" Just now he came into Changle Palace and looked around, but he didn't see the girl's figure.
Chu Yin eased her emotions and fiddled with the armor on her fingers, "A little girl is also worthy of the regent's visit in person, the mourning family found that girl to come over, but they had already let her go back." ”
"Let her go back?"
"Yes, I've already let her go back, what's the matter, that girl didn't go back to the palace?" Latest
Yun Rongjue's eyes sank slightly, "The Empress Dowager's status is precious, and she can't be beaten by false words." ”
Chu Yin looked cold, "Presumptuous!" Does the regent think that the mourners are lying? If the regent doesn't believe him, ask them if the girl is already gone! ”
Caitang Caixia, who was beside Chu Yin, hurriedly stood up, and said that Chu Yin had already let Jiang Wu leave.
Yun Rongjue didn't believe Chu Yin's words, he left Changle Palace after bowing, and when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he asked the guards guarding the door, and the guards must have told him that Jiang Wu had indeed left the palace.
It was impossible for Jiang Wu not to return to the palace after leaving the palace, but he returned to the palace and waited for half an hour, but he still didn't see Jiang Wu come back.
Chu Yin is lying to him?!
But this can't be said, it is possible for Chu Yinqiang to leave Jiang Wu, but the guards at the door also said that they saw Jiang Wu leave, and if Chu Yin wanted to force Jiang Wu to stay in the palace, he would not do it in this way, once he searched the palace, everything would be exposed.
But if Jiang Wu is not in the palace, where will she go?
"Your Highness, you are relieved, maybe that girl is playful, and she will go out to play while she is doing this." Zhang Ruo brought the tea and said with a smile on his face.
Jiang Sumo raised his eyes to look at Zhang Ruo, and then whispered to Yun Rongjue.
"Your Highness," Yun Rongjue sent the house to find Jiang Wu's little maid back, "Your Highness, Jiang Wu girl in the market will go on weekdays, we have all looked for the places we often go, and we haven't seen Jiang Wu girl!" ”
When the little guy spoke, a flash of joy flashed on Zhang Ruo's face.
"Your Royal Highness, isn't that girl who has been in the house for a long time, and her heart is also big, so she took advantage of His Highness's recent busy affairs and couldn't take care of her, so she took the opportunity to run away." Zhang Ruo said.
"Shut your mouth." Yun Rongjue was displeased and angry.
Zhang Ruo choked, his face was a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to refute anything.
"Your Highness, this matter of finding someone, it's better to leave it to the concubine, you still have important things to do, and don't delay the business." Jiang Sumo persuaded widely.
Yun Rongjue ignored it, stood up, and left the palace with three or two people.
"Your Highness!"
Zhang Ruo and Jiang Sumo helplessly watched Yun Rongjue leave without intention, Zhang Ruo was unwilling to purse his lips, "Your Highness is really, this person is gone, and he is still looking for something to do, wasting time." ”
Jiang Sumo glanced at Zhang Ruo and said nothing.
Zhang Ruo glanced crookedly and leaned over to Jiang Sumo's side, "Princess, you said, can Your Highness find that girl?" ”
"How do I know this," Jiang Sumo sighed lightly after answering, "There have been too many things pressing on His Highness recently, I just hope His Highness can be more relaxed." With that, she turned and walked inside.
Zhang Ruo looked at Jiang Sumo's high-minded and tolerant appearance, and snorted coldly.
……
Jiang Wu woke up from a coma, and when he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a bright red.
Where is this?
She eased her nerves, and opened her eyes to see everything in front of her, this was a red-hot room, with big happy words on the window and on the wall.
This is a wedding room?!
Jiang Wu saw everything in front of him clearly, but his head was confused, where is this? How could she be here? She subconsciously wanted to stand up, but when she got up hard, she found that her feet and hands were tied to the chair!
How so?
Her mind raced and she thought about it.
Previously, it was the Empress Dowager who summoned her into the palace, saying that she had something important to look for her, she couldn't refuse, and followed into the palace, after entering the palace, Chu Yin asked her something, and asked her to teach Caitang Caixia some ways to make cakes, and then let her leave.
Afterward......
Jiang Wu thought about it, and frowned.
Not far from the palace, she heard someone calling her, and subconsciously turned her head, but before she could see who called her, her neck hurt, and she lost her intuition.
Who brought her here? What the hell is this place?
Many questions filled her head.
She was wondering when she heard a voice coming from the door, and she tensed up and looked towards the door. The door was pushed open, and a girl walked in with something, and when she saw Jiang Wu, she owed her.
The girl didn't say anything, she put down her things and was about to leave, Jiang Wu hurriedly called her.
"What is this place? Why am I here? Who brought me here? She asked in one breath.
The girl lowered her eyes, "Girl, wait a minute. With that, he turned and left.
Jiang Wu: ???
She didn't answer her!
But no matter how Jiang Wu shouted, the girl was stunned and didn't look back. With a creak, the door was closed again!
Jiang Wu twisted her eyebrows, she didn't know what was going on in front of her, she tried to break free of the ropes on her hands and feet, but the ropes were tightly tied and she couldn't break free.
Jiang Wu was frustrated, pursed her lips, and looked at the door, she wanted to know what was going on.
For more than a quarter of an hour, the door was pushed open with a creak, and Jiang Wu looked at it, stunned when he saw the person in front of him.
"Miss Shen?!"
It's Shen Shulan?!
"Jiang Wu." Shen Shulan approached Jiang Wu.
Jiang Wu never thought that it would be Shen Shulan. Did Shen Shulan bring her here?
But why?
"Miss Shen, did you bring the slave and maid? What's going on? Jiang Wu asked.
"Jiang Wu, we will be a family in the future, so you don't call yourself a slave and a slave." Shen Shulan curled her lips and said.
Family?
Jiang Wu didn't know, "Miss Shen, what the hell is going on?" Miss Shen, please untie this rope for the slave first. ”
Shen Shulan glanced at the rope that tied Jiang Wu, "Jiang Wu, you bear with me a little longer, my second brother will be here in a while." ”
"Your second brother? Shen Ergongzi? Jiang Wu's eyes widened slightly.
Jiang Wu's eyes rolled, looking at everything around her, "Miss Shen, you brought me here?" Is it ......?"
Everything that was red in front of her, Shen Shulan's words, had to make her have some associations and guesses, and she was panicked with such associations and guesses.
"Do you want slaves and ......?" she didn't even dare to finish.
"After tonight, Jiang Wu, you are my second sister-in-law." Shen Shulan said.
Really!
"Miss Shen, this joke is not funny at all, slave maid, how can a slave maid be your sister-in-law, and the slave maid has no intention of marrying the second son." She anxiously wanted to get up and struggled.
Shen Shulan hurriedly held her down, "Jiang Wu, don't get excited, I know that you don't have deep feelings for my second brother now, but feelings can be cultivated, the important thing is that my second brother has a deep love for you, if you don't marry, after you marry my second brother, my second brother will definitely treat you well and won't let you be wronged!" You can rest assured. ”
"Miss Shen, it's not like this, slave maid...... has no intention of marrying the second son, and ...... The slave is a person of His Royal Highness the Regent, and even if she wants to marry, she must get the permission of the Regent before she can do it! Jiang Wu said.
Shen Shulan pursed her lips and sighed lightly, "That's what I said, but even the Queen Mother approved the matter of you and my second brother, but the regent chased and refused to let go, and when you and my second brother got married tonight, everything fell into place, and His Royal Highness the regent would not chase and hold on to it anymore." ”
Jiang Wu: ???
They don't even care about His Highness, they are strong!
"Miss Shen, this can't work! The slave maid is the person of His Royal Highness the Regent, unless His Royal Highness says it himself, the slave and maid cannot leave the palace, let alone marry the second son! ”
Jiang Wu was stubborn, Shen Shulan smiled faintly, "Now this matter is beyond Jiang Wu, my second brother really likes you, he is not in good health, for you, he can't eat and sleep all day long, everyone has lost a lot of weight, my father and aunt feel sorry for my second brother, I can't bear to let my second brother go on like this, Jiang Wu, you are the most kind, I don't want to see my second brother lovesick and sick, right?" ”
Jiang Wu's eyebrows were furrowed, and Shen Shulan's words were completely strong.
She is a girl, and she can't do her own things, but she is the person next to Yun Rongjue, and everything she does is based on Yun Rongjue, but the Shen family is so ignorant of it, and wants to break the rules and regulations.
"Miss Shen......"
"You wait, my second brother will be here in a while." Shen Shulan smiled at her, then exited the room.
As the door slammed shut, Jiang Wu's mood seemed to sink to the bottom!
She struggled with the ropes on her hands and feet, and she couldn't shake it, could it be that there was no possibility of maneuvering?!
She bit her lip tightly, thinking in her heart, all she hung on was that person......
"Your Highness......"
Not long after Shen Shulan left, the door was opened again, and this time it was Shen Yuanfei who was dressed in red.
Jiang Wu looked at Shen Yuanfei, his emotions were tense, and his eyes were bright with deep defense.
