After processing the picked fruits, Mu Ling made a fruit platter and finished eating, and the news of the city lord's return came from the front.

Mu Ling couldn't help but be overjoyed, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and called the little maid to take her to the front hall.

The front hall was very lively, and the voices of several delicate girls could be vaguely heard, mixed with the sharp voice of the city lord's wife.

It's a good one!

Mu Ling pursed his lips in displeasure and turned the screen to the front hall.

There were several little girls standing in the hall, the first position on the left sat the city lord, and next to it was the city lord's wife, and the third lady who had seen before was standing behind the city lord's wife, looking at the top position shyly and timidly.

"Mrs. Liang is here." When the lord of the city saw her coming, he stood up and bowed.

Mu Ling nodded, walked over and looked up, Liang Chu was sitting there, holding a teacup in one hand, seeing her look over, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and her posture became more and more relaxed and relaxed.

"How's it going?" Mu Ling smiled and walked over to the other side of him and sat down.

"I'll tell you about this when I go back, I'm afraid we'll have to stay here for a few days." Liang Chu put down the teacup, his eyes a little dark.

Seeing his expression, Mu Ling knew that this matter would not be simple.

Originally, she didn't want to make a mess, but the matter of the corpse pit was not trivial, and she couldn't let it go like this.

Lowering his head and frowning, Mu Ling nodded almost invisibly: "That's it, fortunately, there are many fruits in the City Lord's Mansion, and they are very delicious, so it is okay to stay for a longer time." ”

"If Mrs. Liang likes it, it's fine." The city lord also echoed with a smile.

He didn't dare to find out what the identity of this person from the house was, so he could only wait carefully.

And there is such a big thing in Wushuang City, and he, the lord of the city, can't escape the responsibility, if he doesn't cooperate with the investigation at this time, when the prefect and the governor of Liangguang come, I'm afraid there will be no good fruit to eat.

He thought well, Liang Chu was indeed not a soft-hearted person, but because the city lord's current attitude was quite good, Liang Chu didn't plan to make a heavy hand.

It's just that this city lord still seems to understand, but the ladies and ladies around him don't seem to be some understanding.

glanced coldly at the city lord's wife and the third lady behind her, and there was a warning in her eyes, which made people shudder.

"That being the case, before the case is investigated, I will have to live in the City Lord's Mansion." Liang Chu stood up, "I hope to be cleaner these days. ”

If it disturbs his purity, I am afraid that the result will not be good.

The city lord immediately responded, and ordered the maid to guide the way, and then said: "This lord will rest first, and a small banquet will be set up in the hundred fruit garden in the house in the evening, where the evening is very cool, and you can pick some fruits to eat at will, which is very pleasant, and you should wash the dust for this lord." ”

There is such an unfortunate thing today, and it is still okay to wash away the bad luck.

Liang Chu knew that Mu Ling liked fruits, and he was full of praise for the orchard in the city lord's mansion, and at this time, such a banquet was arranged in the mansion, Liang Chu felt that Mu Ling would definitely like it, so he nodded and agreed.

"I'll do three at home, and the city lord can call the third master." Finally, Liang Chu kindly reminded him.

His identity can't be revealed at will, and it's not uncommon for him to get a fake name, so he simply said this, he didn't tell a lie, before he ascended the throne, he was indeed the third prince.

The city lord was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and responded with a smile.

Liang was tired for a day, and he didn't stop much at this time, so he went back to the courtyard with Mu Ling.

The city lord's wife in the hall looked at the few people who had disappeared, and Wen Rouxiang stepped forward with a smile to inquire: "Master, who are these people?" Is the pie so big? ”

"You're so entertaining, remember that you can't be lazy." The city lord frowned and pondered, "He can invite the prefect and the governor of Liangguang, and he is from the capital, so his identity is not ordinary." ”

The city lord's wife pursed her lips a little displeased, and wanted to say something, but Yang Shuyuan on the side suddenly spoke: "That lady said that her husband's surname is Liang, and he is from the capital. ”

The person surnamed Liang from the capital is either rich or expensive.

The city lord's heart jumped suddenly, and he was secretly glad that he had not made any mistakes.

Most of the people surnamed Liang who live in the capital are relatives of the emperor or side branches of the royal family. Although the intricacies are very complicated, it is undeniable that the position of power is not small.

And the third in line is a man of this age, except for the one who-

I hope it won't be that one......

"What surname Liang is surnamed Re, we are the city lord's mansion of Wushuang City, no matter how big the official of the capital is, he can't reach out to control here, and he can't eat us all?" The city lord's wife had a sharp voice, and she retorted dissatisfiedly, and then her tone changed, and she blamed herself very sadly, "Master, this is all the fault of the concubine." Yuan'er, this girl has lost her mother since she was a child, and her temperament is the most lively and stubborn, and the concubine loves her physically and mentally, so she is reluctant to beat and scold, but she doesn't want to teach such a weak character......"

At first glance, these words sound really touching and heartfelt, but I don't know that every word is smearing black people.

Yang Shuyuan trembled with anger on the side, but she couldn't refute a word.

She is not good at fighting these lip fights, and the city lord's wife speaks with a high-sounding voice, so it would be strange if she could fight.

Fortunately, at this time, the city lord was troubled by Liang Chu's identity, and he didn't pay attention to the second half of the words of the city lord's wife, but after listening to the first half, he glared at her with some annoyance.

"Ignorant woman! You'd better be quiet these days, if something happens, the old man can't protect you! ”

"Sir?" The city lord's wife looked up in disbelief.

The third lady was also very dissatisfied: "Daddy! My mother is just a few words of comfort, why is my father so afraid of things? No matter how bad it is, there is still an uncle here, and when the uncle becomes an imperial businessman, what else can't the prefect buy? ”

"Huh." Maybe it's the one who told that kid from the Wang family that he couldn't be an imperial businessman!

The city lord just sneered, flicked his sleeves and called Yang Shuyuan away.

He was going to ask her what she had just said.

In the study, Yang Shuyuan stood quietly, well-behaved and calm, without a trace of restraint, but there was little closeness.

The city lord put down the brush, then raised his head and asked, "You just said that the lady told you that her husband's surname is Liang, but besides that, have you heard any other news?" ”

"She asked me to call her 'Sister Ling', and said that there was a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses and a small son at home, and now the children are all left in the capital, and only the husband and wife have come out." Yang Shuyuan answered truthfully, but it was just a short parent.

It is not surprising that the rich and noble family has several children, maybe the lady is only talking about a few children from her, and this cannot be rashly matched.
