Chapter 228: Hope Disappointed

Three days later, Princess Xuanyi got married, and the emperor granted amnesty to the world, and the whole world celebrated.

The emperor came to Jiang Mansion in person, and Jiang Taifu looked at the couple in front of him with joy, reached out and touched his beard, and smiled from ear to ear.

When all the rituals were completed, Xuanyi wore a red wedding dress, and walked towards the wedding room step by step supported by the bride, while Jiang Heng stayed to deal with the guests.

"Commander Jiang is very happy today, but you must have a few more drinks with you!"

"That is, Commander Jiang has always been unsmiling, and he should indulge and indulge one day!"

A bunch of people came forward to say hello to Jiang Heng, Jiang Heng responded with a smile, until a small servant came in from outside the door, sent in a brocade box, and put it in front of Jiang Heng. "Young master, this is a woman who has not paid a salute to you!"

Everyone couldn't help but be a little curious when they heard this, they didn't send a congratulatory gift at this time, I don't know if it was Jiang Heng's peach blossom outside! Everyone was interested, and they gathered in a circle, ready to let Jiang Heng open it.

Although Jiang Heng was also curious in his heart, he was more or less embarrassed in front of so many people. Shen Cuobai also walked towards this side when he heard the noise, "Open it, let me see and understand, if I do something sorry for Xuanyi, I can still take Xuanyi away." ”

Shen Cuobai had already spoken, and everyone's eyes looked over and fell on the brocade box, full of curiosity.

Jiang Heng responded, although he had a clear conscience, he was also a little more pressured. Gently opened the brocade box, and the contents leaked out.

"Eh, it's just a peach blossom hairpin, I think it should have been given by some girl who admires Commander Jiang."

There was a sound of laughter in the crowd, but Jiang Heng kept looking at the peach blossom hairpin in his hand stiffly, and even trembled a little. He remembered clearly that this was something he gave to Wei Zhaohua, a family treasure passed down by Jiang. Now that the old things have reappeared, what about the old people?

"Who is it! Where is that girl now? Jiang Heng tugged at the clothes of the subordinate and asked loudly, the subordinate pointed out tremblingly, not understanding why Jiang Heng suddenly became so angry.

Jiang Heng ran out in the direction pointed by his subordinates, and the guests who stayed behind looked at each other, Shen Cuobai was stunned in his heart, as if he thought of something, and chased him out.

"It's a peach hairpin! It's for the lord of Zhaohua! She's really back! Jiang Heng looked at Shen Cuobai, who chased out, and his eyes were unconsciously excited with tears. After so many years, she is still willing to come back.

Shen Cuobai was also very excited in his heart, people came and went around him, Wei Zhaohua, where are you?

"Commander Jiang, I'm looking for a little girl." A cuicui voice came, Jiang Heng looked at the woman on the side, she looked like she was thirty or forty years old, but her face was still covered with heavy makeup, she looked like a half-old, and her charm was still there.

"Who are you?" Jiang Heng and Shen Cuobai asked in unison, looking at the appearance of the person who came, they didn't have any impression.

"It's normal for nobles not to know Ling Niang, Ling Niang is in charge of the Rejuvenation Building. Three years ago, when the county lord of Zhaohua bought the Rejuvenation Building, it was already Hui

The master of the Spring Building. Ling Niang said with a smile, even if her eyes looked at Shen Cuobai and Jiang Heng, she still didn't have any fear.

"Zhaohua," Shen Cuobai said tremblingly, this name he hadn't mentioned in three years, and now he felt like a world away, "Where is she!?" ”

Ling Niang saluted Shen Cuobai and Jiang Heng, "The county lord has been dead three years ago, have you forgotten?" This is what the county lord explained to Ling Niang three years ago, and Ling Niang is now only on the order of the county lord three years ago, so she came here to return the valuables. Now that Ling Niang has done what she promised the county lord, she will leave first! ”

Jiang Heng still wanted to say something, at this time, Ling Niang had already turned to leave, Shen Cuobai grabbed Jiang Heng's wrist, "Today is your big day, you can't go anywhere else, this peach blossom hairpin is also a warning from Zhaohua to you." ”

Shen Cuobai let go of Jiang Heng, and he stepped forward to follow Ling Niang's footsteps. Although Ling Niang knew that there were people following behind her, she still didn't have any worries. Even if we have come this far, what can we have?

followed all the way to the door of the Rejuvenation Building, Shen Cuobai heard Wei Zhaohua mention this place, but it was a little long, and he gradually forgot about it. Ling Niang had already walked in, but Shen Cuobai hesitated and didn't dare to go in. If Wei Zhaohua was inside, how would he speak? In the past three years, has she been doing well?

Shen Cuobai thought about it, and he actually got inside. It's still daytime, and the inside of the Rejuvenation Building is unusually quiet.

"I have known for a long time that the nobles will come, and there must be no days of peace in this rejuvenation building from now on." Ling Niang walked out from the side and saluted Shen Cuobai, "Your nobleman come and sit." ”

Shen Cuobai followed Ling Niang to find a seat and sit down, Ling Niang stretched out her hand to pour a cup of tea for Shen Cuobai and put it in front of her.

"Ling Niang still remembers that at that time, it was Aunt Qing who was in charge of the Rejuvenation Building, and that day the county lord of Zhaohua and the prince of Daduan paid 100 million taels to buy the Rejuvenation Building, but I was just a little dancer, and I was practicing dance over there, so I was taken by the county lord of Zhaohua and did the charge of this Rejuvenation Building."

Ling Niang said, her tone couldn't help but soften, "If you can, the girls in the Rejuvenation Building, they all hope that the county lord of Zhaohua is still there, but it's just hope." When the peach blossom hairpin was handed over to me by the lord of Zhaohua, he only said that the peach blossom hairpin was too valuable, and it was inevitable that she would not look good when she went to give a gift, so I asked someone to send it. I happened to be okay today, so I went there myself. ”

Shen Cuobai didn't speak, just looked at this rejuvenation building carefully. He used to be here with Wei Zhaohua, and he still remembered Aunt Qing's face at that time. At that time, he also remembered the arrogant appearance of the elegy clearly.

"If you don't believe Ling Niang's words, you can search here at will, there are no guests yet, it is the best time. If there are guests at night, it is inconvenient for Ling Niang to let the nobles search. Ling Niang said with a smile, Shen Cuobai looked at Ling Niang fixedly, wanting to see the flaw in Ling Niang's eyes, but he didn't.

Shen Cuobai is not polite, he is the only one who has been for so many years

I believe that Wei Zhaohua is still alive, and now he has just had some clues, how can he give up easily. But when Shen Cuobai rummaged through the entire Rejuvenation Building, there was still something incredible in his eyes.

The girls in the Rejuvenation Building were all woken up by Shen Cuobai's movements, and looked at Shen Cuobai from the second floor, a little more impatient. Shen Cuobai looked at the faces of all kinds of beauties upstairs, all of them were not Wei Zhaohua!

"You must know where Wei Zhaohua is now? Tell me! Tell me! Shen Cuobai stepped forward and grabbed Ling Niang's collar and lifted Ling Niang up, Ling Niang was so frightened that she didn't dare to take a mouthful. The girls upstairs ran down when they saw this scene, "Don't hurt Ling Niang!" ”

"Ling Niang and we don't know where the county lord of Zhaohua is! If you really want to know, why don't you go to the palace and ask the emperor, it is rumored that the emperor likes the lord of Zhaohua the most! A girl stood up and said, and the girls around her echoed.

Seeing that Ling Niang's face in her hand had turned red, but she was still struggling and refused to scream, it really looked like Wei Zhaohua's forbearance temperament! Put Ling Niang on the ground, Shen Cuobai shook his sleeves and left.

Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to support Lingniang, and kept complaining.

"How did you think of coming here to find the county lord! The place where there should be a county lord is the most should not be in the palace! ”

"Then the emperor doesn't know what to think, even if the county lord doesn't have a corpse, he won't even have a tablet! Even if we want to go to the memorial service, we can only burn some paper in this rejuvenation building. ”

"Say no more! Let's all go and rest first, and don't spread the word about this! Ling Niang looked at everyone, you said a word, and she couldn't finish talking, and her heart was even more irritable.

When everyone dispersed, Ling Niang looked in the direction of Shen Cuobai and left. She wasn't stuck in her throat just now and couldn't speak, nor was she scared, but Shen Cuobai's words made Ling Niang a little unable to react. Looking at the entire Eastern Qi Dynasty, there is only one person who dares to call himself me - the emperor in the palace!

That person is the emperor, and it was really him who chased him out!

Shen Cuobai didn't go back to Jiang Mansion again, he believed that although there was the one just now, Jiang Heng and Jiang Taifu would definitely be able to calm the emotions of the guests. And what about him? What about his heart beating again because of Wei Zhaohua?

In the Hall of Eternal Life, Shen Cuobai sat under the peach blossom tree, drinking wine without a sip, if you knew that I had become so depraved now, would you blame me? You won't, I'll live for you once this time, and the rest of the days are all for my father's last life, for Dongqi.

The next day, Jiang Heng took Xuanyi back to the palace to thank him. The two of them knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to Shen Cuobai three times.

"It's all a family, so you don't have to be so polite, let's get up quickly." Shen Cuobai stretched out his hand to help Jiang Heng with his own hand, looked at the two people in front of him, and smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, yesterday's events ......" Jiang Heng looked at Shen Cuobai with some eagerness, waiting for Shen Cuobai's reaction. Shen Cuobai glanced at Xuanyi next to him, only to see Xuanyi smiling.

"Brother Huang, rest assured, since the current Jiang Heng is already mine

The husband has no more thoughts about others. If Zhaohua can really come back, it will be a great joy! Xuanyi said with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Shen Cuobai closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at it.

"The things were left by Zhaohua three years ago, and the people were also prepared by Zhaohua three years ago. There were no surprises, no so-called surprises, she didn't come back. ”

The three of them were stunned in place, who was not talking, and it was an empty joy.
