"But... This place is so beautiful, how many beauties have you brought here to talk about love? Xia Shen laughed evilly.

Su Dong said: "To be honest, no, the women I have seen are all greedy for my identity as the prince, and they only care about scratching their heads and making gestures, where do they have the leisure to come here to see the scenery?" ”

Xia Shen thought thoughtfully: "Hmm... So the two of us smell like this? ”

The smile on the corner of Su Dong's mouth deepened, and he couldn't help but scratch the bridge of Xia Shen's small nose and said, "Naughty!" ”

"How dare you scratch my nose!" Xia Shen said that he was going to return the salute to Su Dong, but Su Dong had the foresight to get up earlier, Xia Shen pounced and said, "Don't run!" ”

"If you don't run, are you waiting for you to fight back?" Su Dong smiled evilly.

"Wait for me..."

The two figures in front and one behind are shuttling between the mountains and rivers, and the clothes are flying...

The two were tired of playing, so they sat in the gazebo and drank tea. Observe carefully, this is in the middle of the ground, look up is the peach orchard, look down is the golden light, wonderful!

There are several rooms next to the gazebo, and it seems that Su Dong occasionally stays here.

Xia Shen found that there were still subordinates in this mountain, and everything was well organized.

"I saw that you weren't a soft persimmon at the door that day, how could you be bullied by your stepmother?" Su Dong asked.

Xia Shen touched his head and didn't tell his true identity: "I walked away from the ghost gate and thought about it a lot." ”

"Your brain has become bright, too?"

"Was I stupid before?"

"I'm talking about the court." Su Dong said, "No female streamer dares to talk in the court. ”

"So what! Even the investigation of his mother's death is not clear, and after ten years, it is difficult to investigate again. Xia Shen was helpless.

"Do you suspect that your mother was framed?" Su Dong paused, "I also heard about Mrs. Shang back then, saying that she was infected with the plague. ”

Xia Shen's eyes gradually became cold, and Fang Cai's girlish feelings were swept away: "I don't know, let's look for clues from Lou's first!" If she harmed my mother, then she wouldn't let me go, so I had to find out. ”

There was a moment when Su Dong wanted to protect her innocence, but in the world, who can not be stained by the world, and why not herself. All he could do now, he thought, was help her as much as he could.

The sky gradually cooled down, and the spring evening was still a little cold, so Su Dong put on a cloak for Xia Shen.

Xia Shen saw that he was moving gently, he probably had a lover in the past, as for why he was alone now, something must have happened, he didn't say it, she didn't ask.

The two returned to the city with Caixia.

Xia Shen must have been extremely tired, and fell asleep on horseback, so Su Dong had to slow down and put one hand around Xia Shen, just afraid that she would fall off the horse.

The sunset is undoubtedly gentle, golden and shining with a layer of warm light for everything, reflected on Su Dong and Xia Shen, the eyelashes of the person in his arms flickered, the tip of his nose was straight, his lips were pink, and he was extremely charming, this little wild cat, probably only when he was asleep, he was so well-behaved, Su Dong couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth.

When he came to the door of Shangshu Mansion after dark, Xia Shen happened to be awake.

"Awake?" Su Dong said in a low voice.

"Hmm... It's getting dark and it's time for me to go home. Xia Shen rubbed his eyes.

Su Dong dismounted, hugged Xia Shen down, shook Yingying, and lifted it very lightly, "Go back and eat more!" ”

"Huh? What the? ”

"I mean, you're too thin to grow some meat to have the capital to have fun with me!"

"Slim down and healthy, you know what! But... Happy today, thank you! Xia Shen walked to the main entrance, turned to look at the man in front of the horse, and smiled.

"Let's go back!" Su Dong smiled back, watched the green Luo skirt disappear into the night, and then got on the horse and went home.

Xia Shen walked happily to Qinglan Courtyard, eager to share what he saw today with Nuan'er. I thought that Nuan'er would go home first in the afternoon, and she must be very anxious when she didn't come back.

But the more he walked, the more wrong it became, and all the subordinates saw that they didn't even dare to come out, so they lowered their heads and hurried away. Xia Shen wanted to pull people to ask them clearly, but the people avoided them.

She walked quickly towards Qinglan Courtyard, but she didn't see Nuan'er, and realized that something was wrong, so she grabbed Xiaochun and asked, "What happened?" ”

Xiaochun said in a panic: "Miss, the eldest lady saw that Miss hadn't returned home after dark, so she sent someone to call Sister Nuan'er!" I heard from the people over there that the eldest lady was tortured with a cane, saying that Sister Nuan'er had not fulfilled her duties! ”

Xia Shen's face immediately changed: "What about my father?" ”

"The lord will not return to the house tonight, and he has already sent someone to inform him, saying that the court will check the taxes overnight."

"I see, my father is not at home, and the old witch is about to turn the sky upside down!"

"Miss, where are you going!" Koharu Road.

"Go ask for someone!"

Nuan'er, wait for me, I'm coming! Xia Shen exuded anger all over, turned her head and walked out of the yard, going to the place she didn't want to go to the most.

As soon as Xiaochun heard that something was wrong, he hurriedly went to gather the other three girls and followed Xia Shen. Although they may not be able to help much, they are also working in Xia Shen Courtyard now, and they can't get out of it if the master has something.

This was the first time Xia Shen came to Qionghua Courtyard, and before he entered the door, he heard Lou's sharp voice: "Okay, you cheap embryo, where did that crazy girl hear the rumors?" Say it! ”

"Back... Big lady! Nuan'er really doesn't know anything! Yes...! Nuan'er had been tortured for a long time, lying on the bench weakly, cold sweat wetting the hair on her forehead, and squeezing out a few words word by word.

"Don't know? Keep beating me, as long as your master doesn't come back, Mrs. Ben has a reason to torture you, I'll see how long your mouth will be hard! Lou was graceful and luxurious, sitting on the Taishi chair, saying in a strange manner, holding a purple jade jade teacup in his hand, very noble, after speaking, he took a small sip, and the teacup was put back in its place, without any expression on his face.

Xia Shen patted his head in annoyance, and then he thought that he had threatened the Lou family with Lin Qing's mother's matter that day, and the Lou family started from Nuan'er, how could he only care about himself and ignore Nuan'er!

However, this made her more sure that Lin Qingniang's death definitely had something to do with the Lou family! Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so anxious to arrest Nuan'er and torture her to extract a confession.

"Ahh

Nuan'er has followed Lin Qing since she was a child, Lin Qing has always treated her very well, she has never suffered the humiliation suffered by other maids, and later Xia Shen did not treat her as a subordinate, she will think of her in everything, how can she be virtuous, how can she afford these favors. So Nuan'er has nothing else to repay, and always treats her own young lady loyally.

Therefore, from the moment she stepped into this courtyard, she had the determination to die, and she could not say anything she knew, otherwise the young lady would suffer.
