Zhangzhu was shocked, that Yao Lun died on the twentieth day of the twelfth month of the eleventh year, and he only lived for twelve days after seeing Xun Jian and left. She hurriedly asked again: "Has the fourth master ever come here to drink tea after this?" ”

The guy shook his head and said, "No, it was the last time, so I remember it very clearly." Later, it was said that the fourth master fell ill, and he died not long after. ”

It's so weird! According to Mrs. Yao Lun, he was sick, and the old injuries were gone, but why was it so fast, she hurriedly asked, "How was the health of the fourth master before this?" ”

"It's okay, I walk very steadily, and I don't see any coughing and wheezing."

Zhangzhu quickly thought of Li Huaibi, is Yao Lun's death the same as Li Huaibi?

"Did you hear what the two of them said?"

The guy just shook his head: "No, the guests don't dare to ask casually." On another day, the two of them were in the upstairs cubicle, and the younger one did not come to serve. ”

Later, at the request of Zhangzhu, the guy took her to see the place where Yao Lun and Xun Jian had sat that day.

Whether it is Li Huaibi or Yao Lun, they have a relationship with Xun Jian. What role does Xun Jian play in this, and for what purpose Yao Lun wants to come forward to commit perjury. How did Xun Jian get on the line with Yao Lun? The answers to these questions may never be known.

The Yao family has too many secrets that can't be solved for a while, but all the problems point to the same person. I still have to discover the secrets hidden by the Xun family. At this point, the Xie family's affairs can already be sure that Xun Jian definitely has a big move behind his back. The Xun family is the enemy of the Xie family, and this is never wrong.

Zhangzhu stayed in Xunyang for five or six days, and then prepared to return to Beijing.

By the time she returned to the capital, it had already passed the Midyear Festival. It's a pity that she couldn't go to the General's Mansion to pay tribute to her family.

Du Yunxu saw that Zhangzhu came back safely, and he didn't ask any extra words, because he knew that it would be in vain to ask, but he cared: "It's good to come back safely, you just stay at home honestly, don't go anywhere." ”

"I'm causing trouble for my eldest cousin."

This cousin is indeed a trouble, but my cousin has no relatives and no reason everywhere in Beijing except for him, and he has no support, although he has complaints on his lips, but he has no dislike in his heart.

"It's good to know it's trouble. I received a letter from my family, and the old man had promised to come to Beijing, saying that he would leave when the weather was cooler. I think they'll be there before Chongyang. You also have a companion, so you won't be so boring. ”

Zhangzhu nodded and said yes, I haven't seen her all these years, I don't know if Mrs. Du will blame her, but even if she blames her, she has no complaints.

After Zhangzhu came back, he didn't even bother to take a sip of tea, so he asked Runsheng to go to Dali Temple to give Yuan Zhen a letter.

Yuan Zhen knew that Zhangzhu had returned to Beijing, so he rushed over early that afternoon, and the two met.

It has been more than a month since they met, and the two didn't bother to say some parting lovesickness when they just met, and the two exchanged the news they knew.

Zhangzhu told Yuan Zhen about Yao Lun, and Yuan Zhen pondered for a while before saying: "It's not much different from what I expected, it seems that the crux of the problem is still in the Xun family." ”

"Yes, the collapse of the Xie family and the Xun family must be inseparable. What are the actions of the Xun family over there these days? ”

Yuan Zhen told her: "Xun Jian is a scholar, and the emperor has approved it." He is now idle at home and has not gone anywhere, I heard that he is obsessed with listening to operas, he has to watch several plays every day, and he also raises a group of operas. Xun Shao's injuries are no longer serious, and he is still working in the Zhenfu Division, as if he has not been affected at all. There was also a deadlock in the case, after all, after so many years, the witnesses of that year could no longer open their mouths, and the evidence was missing, so the progress almost stopped. ”

At this point, can't you shake the Xun family? Zhangzhu is unwilling, the matter of the Xie family has not yet been decided, but Ruolan really died in the hands of the Xun family, and she wants to avenge Ruolan.

"Jinshi, what other way can we go, we can bring down the Xun family as soon as possible?"

Yuan Zhen understood Zhangzhu's anxiety, and he said calmly: "Naturally, there are other ways, the case can't go forward, but there is another thing." That iron mine won't disappear so easily. Xun Jian did business with Jinren privately and mined iron ore privately, which is not a small crime. ”

"Let's start with this first."

Chu Yuanzhen said: "I will explain this matter to the prince." Zhangzhu, we have not reached the point of exhaustion, there is still hope for everything, you have to show confidence. ”

Zhangzhu nodded in agreement.

Yuan Zhen said again: "Ruolan...... I found the remains. ”

When Zhangzhu heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" Have you checked to make sure it's her? ”

Yuan Zhen nodded yes, Zhangzhu's heart suddenly tightened, and she said urgently: "Can you take me to see her?" ”

Yuan Zhen said: "I put her in a temple not far from Huangyepo, thinking that I would have to wait for you to see it before she could be buried." ”

The palm bead couldn't hold back any longer, and she was anxious to see Ruolan.

Yuan Zhen immediately arranged it, and then the two of them took the car and went in the direction of Huangyepo.

By the time they arrived at the temple, it was already dark, and Zhangzhu saw the dark coffin, and had seen Ruolan's body in person, and it was indeed her poor sister.

"What caused the death?"

Yuan Zhen said: "It should have been hacked to death by a sword or something." ”

The heart of the palm bead is dripping blood. She didn't dare to imagine how much torture Ruolan suffered on her deathbed. Because it was a hot day, it was not easy to preserve the corpse, but she could still distinguish her face, so she recognized it at a glance. Ruolan, who was lying in the coffin, was neatly packed, and there were a lot of clothes and jewelry. The clothes were still freshly made, and they were the red that Ruolan liked.

Seeing each other again, heaven and earth have been separated, and the palm beads are in tears in front of the coffin.

"I asked the monks in this temple to recite the sutra for her for seven days, and I plan to wait for you to come back to see her for the last time, and then she will be buried. Let's be buried in Huangyepo, the Xie family is there. ”

Chu Yuanzhen took Zhangzhu into account everywhere, and Zhangzhu had no worries, she nodded and agreed.

This night, Zhangzhu kept watch in front of the coffin all night, and the next day was a good day. Chu Yuanzhen asked the nearby villagers to help open another hole in the woods, and invited a group of monks to chant the scriptures, so that Ruolan could enter the soil smoothly.

A new grave was quickly erected, but it took only half a day.

Zhangzhu felt ashamed of this sister in her heart, and she also swore in her heart that she would definitely avenge Ruolan.

After burying Ruolan, they rushed into the city. Zhangzhu said very little, but when Yuan Zhen asked her anything, she would answer. Her condition is not bad, and Yuan Zhen is temporarily relieved.

"Zhangzhu, I promise you, no one will die because of this."

Ruolan's matter has nothing to do with him, and Zhangzhu said: "You don't have to blame yourself. ”

"I'm afraid you'll blame yourself."

How could she not blame herself, if she could bring out Ruolan earlier, she would not let Ruolan lose her life.
