Although the city lord's voice was a little sharper, it was a personal spirit.

Seeing the city lord's attitude, although he couldn't guess Liang Chu's identity, he had already determined that the other party was a big man.

The so-called stammering is to see the big people and not let go.

"Master, you said that is a big official in the capital?" The city lord's wife cautiously leaned over and asked softly, her eyes shining with a glint in her eyes.

The city lord glared at him: "Put away your royal family's set, people can't say it's a royal family, and they won't be interested in those things!" ”

Royal family! If it has something to do with the royal family, what a glory it would be!

The city lord's wife was immediately overjoyed: "Which prince is it?" Look, sir, this prince seems to have only that one lady? If we give that one a second concubine, wouldn't the old man be more reused? ”

"Our three sons are the daughters of my peerless city lord, how about it if we talk about family affairs and do a proper room? Do you have to sacrifice your three sons to be a concubine? And now most of the princes of the capital are rich and famous, and the only ones who are really powerful are the regent and a few princes, do you know that one must be one of them? ”

The city lord hated that iron could not be steel, and glanced at his wife.

This woman is really confused, and her eyelids are too shallow!

"I'm afraid the prefect will come over in the next two days, if you are so energetic, you might as well teach San'er well, don't make a joke in front of the prefect at that time!" The city lord snorted coldly and glanced at them warningly.

It's really a bunch of people who don't know what to say, even that one dares to make up their minds.

The third lady listened on the sidelines, and was full of anticipation at first, but her face darkened later.

The second son of the prefect's family, where can he compare to the glory of the royal family? is she going to be a side concubine, and when others see her in the future, they will also call a side concubine, what a glory is this?

Moreover, if she can be favored and give birth to a son, she will not be able to be crowned the king of Fengjue, and her status will rise with the tide, these expectations and glory cannot be enjoyed by marrying a second son.

Mu Ling, who returned to the courtyard, didn't know that someone in this mansion had begun to fight her husband's idea again.

When he returned to the courtyard, he brought a fruit basket: "What I picked myself today is all good fruit, we can pick some and send them to Qian'er, presumably they are extremely happy." ”

"Very good, if I have time, I will arrange it."

Liang Chu turned his head to look at the various fruits in the fruit basket, twisted a longan and peeled it off and put it in his mouth, feeling that it tasted good, and his eyes showed appreciation.

Mu Ling looked proud, but he didn't forget the matter: "You said that the matter is a little tricky, but there is no progress in the case?" ”

"Remember the yard we saw this morning with a dragon's eye? There's an old lady's. Liang Chu raised his head and put the longan core on the table.

Mu Ling nodded, waiting for his next step.

"The old lady's surname is Qian, and she has only one granddaughter who depends on her. The husband's family left a house, and they were originally rich. But half a month ago, for some reason, her granddaughter suddenly disappeared, and Mrs. Qian died half a month ago. ”

"Huh? Could it be that her granddaughter was not filial, and she actually took the money and left her relatives behind? Mu Ling couldn't help but be surprised.

Liang Chu smiled helplessly, and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms: "If this is the case, it is good, all the corpses in the corpse pit today have been carried out, and one of them is said to be the granddaughter of Mrs. Qian." It's a twenty-eight-year-old girl, and although there is a slight decay, it can also be seen that she is a sign of a person. ”

Mu Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at him in surprise, but when he saw him, he said: "I see that the corpse pit is full of little girls of this age, all of them have some signs, I think the murderer has any special hobbies." ”

"All little girls? and good-looking, doesn't that mean that the murderer collected these little girls and tortured them to death? Mu Ling couldn't help but shudder, "This is terrible." ”

It's too unconscionable!

She couldn't imagine that a girl who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, just a good age, was suddenly murdered, that is, the soul was afraid that she would not be at peace, right?

"The murderer must be found as soon as possible!"

Mu Ling clenched his fists angrily, and there was a fire in his eyes.

Liang Chu nodded: "This matter is serious, maybe there will be other involved, I have already called the prefect and the governor of Liangguang to come over to assist in the investigation, and I think I will be able to have an eyebrow in the near future." ”

Mu Ling felt that his mood was a little heavy, so he just nodded sullenly.

She is not good at investigating cases, but if there is a suspect, she can help interrogate it.

After learning about the case from Liang Chu, Mu Ling probably had a number in his heart, so he didn't ask any more. Liang Chu wouldn't ask her to interfere in this matter, and she didn't have the slightest interest in seeing the corpse, so she naturally wouldn't be pestering to continue asking at this time.

During this period, the maid of the city lord's mansion sent some snacks to cushion their stomachs, and it didn't take long for another maid to come and invite, saying that the banquet had been arranged, and invited them to sit in the hundred fruit orchard.

The two of them followed the guide maid to the Hundred Fruit Garden, where the city lord was already waiting, and when he saw them coming, he greeted them: "Third master, Mrs. Liang, please take a seat." ”

"The city lord's hundred fruit orchards are really elegant."

Liang Chu glanced around and hooked his lips in admiration.

He doesn't have much expression on weekdays, but it's not easy to praise at this time, and the city lord is naturally happy.

This hundred fruit orchard is built in a courtyard next to the orchard, in which a large artificial lake has been excavated, and pavilions and corridors have been built, and various fruit trees are planted everywhere to decorate the landscape.

The feast was held in a clearing near the lake, surrounded by lanterns and incense, which blended with the freshness of nature.

Looking up, you can see the bright moon, and when you look down, you can see the flowing water, which is really a good scene.

It's no wonder that even Liang Chu has to praise it.

Several people sat down, Liang Chu did not sit at the top, only gave up the position to the master's family, and led Mu Ling to sit below.

Several people in the City Lord's Mansion have arrived, in addition to the third lady and Miss Yan who have seen before, there are also a few young ladies and sons, who are sitting on the side very well.

The city lord's wife has never given birth to a son, because there is no son-in-law in this city lord's mansion, and the sons who are seated at this time are all concubines.

It stands to reason that the concubine is not qualified to sit here, but today's identity is not trivial, and the city lord has no son-in-law, so he naturally hopes that his concubine's son can get a little green smoke from Liang Chu and gain a future for himself.

Fortunately, several sons were not taught by the city lord's wife, but the rules were very well-cultivated at this time.
