Xie Jinlan's eyebrows moved slightly: "Then do you know where they are now?" ”

Cheng Sheng shook his head again: "The grass people have always been alone, and they are not familiar with them. ”

Ruan Yezhen was anxious when she heard this: How can this be good? Could it be that the clue of this person's testimony is broken like this?

Xie Jinlan still looked indifferent: "Then who are their surnames, do you remember?" ”

Cheng Sheng nodded hesitantly: "There were three people patrolling with the grass people that day, and the names of two of them made the grass people have some impressions. ”

After frowning and thinking for a moment, he said, "One person has the same surname as Caomin, and his name is Cheng Jie. The other grass man couldn't remember whether it was Xiao Ping or Xiao An. ”

got the news he wanted, Xie Jinlan didn't stay for long, and immediately turned around and planned to leave.

It's just that when he was about to walk out of the prison door, he didn't know what he thought, and looked sideways at Cheng Sheng, who was still kneeling: "Is it worth it?" ”

Cheng Sheng was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Xie Jinlan said, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously pulled out a smile:

"There is never anything worth it or not, only whether you are willing or not. All this is the grass people willingly. Even if she really took the sin and lost her life for her, the grass people still don't regret it! ”

Xie Jinlan said: "This official doesn't seem to appreciate that Zhang Xiaoliu. ”

Cheng Sheng shook his head indifferently: "It's the grass people who love her, it's not that she has love for the grass people." As long as the grass people know that she is alive and well, it is enough. ”

Xie Jinlan stopped talking, locked the cell door and left directly.

Although Ruan Yezhen also left with Xie Jinlan, her mind still stopped at Cheng Sheng's last two sentences.

When she was very young, she had heard gossip about her mother and father.

Although his father Ruan An is a general of Zhenguo, he is a big old man with mud legs. No matter how friendly some high-ranking families are on the surface, they always look down on his background in their hearts.

's mother, as the eldest princess of the Daye Dynasty, voluntarily married him back then, which can be said to have stunned many people. Some people who claim to be smart speculate that it may be the meaning of the emperor's uncle.

Although his father is a rough man, his ability to march and fight is obvious to all. Otherwise, how could he climb from an unknown pawn to the position of general of Zhenguo in seven or eight years?

As we all know, my father was an orphan and grew up eating hundreds of family meals. In order to make him more loyal to the Daye Dynasty, marrying the daughter of the royal family is the best way.

Those who thought they had spied on the holy will could not help but feel a little pity for their mother in their hearts.

But they didn't know that this marriage was requested by the mother herself. Although the emperor's uncle admired his father's personality, he would never agree to marry his sister, who was a compatriot of the same mother and had been clothed and fed since childhood.

But in the end, the emperor's uncle still couldn't resist his mother, so he had no choice but to compromise.

When Ruan Yezhen overheard those slanderous words for the first time, she was sullen for a long time: Daddy and mother are so affectionate, why do they say such bad things?

Later, it was her mother who enlightened her.

Mother said:

"Why bother with irrelevant people? They live in the midst of intrigue all day long, thinking that everyone is like them and that everything is done for a purpose.

As everyone knows, people like them are the most pitiful and pathetic. Because for the rest of their lives, they may not get that pure love. ”

At that time, Ruan Yezhen thought that the love of her parents was the purest and most beautiful love in the world. But it turns out that in this world, not all true love can be consummated.

is also like Cheng Sheng, who doesn't care about how much he has paid and how much the other party has given in return. Everything is done just for the other party to be well!

I wonder if Zhang Xiaoliu knows that Cheng Sheng's affection is so deep?

remembered Zhang Xiaoliu's words in the rockery that day, remembered her surrender for Cheng Sheng, and remembered her cynicism towards Cheng Sheng in the cell that day.

Perhaps, she is not without a trace of affection for Cheng Sheng. It's just that I don't want to drag each other down......

Ruan Yezhen unconsciously sighed deeply.

Xie Jinlan glanced at her and said, "But do you think fate makes people?" But feel sorry for Cheng Sheng and Zhang Xiaoliu? ”

Ruan Yezhen sighed with emotion: "Yes, if Wang Tianci hadn't killed Zhang Xiaomei, Zhang Xiaoliu would not have fallen into such a situation." But if it weren't for Zhang Xiaomei's death, the two of them wouldn't have met. ”

Xie Jinlan was silent.

Ruan Yezhen also stopped talking.

It wasn't until Xie Jinlan left the county office that Ruan Yezhen asked curiously: "Xie Jinlan, where are you going?" ”

Xie Jinlan said lightly: "You will know by then." ”

Ruan Yezhen bowed slightly, with clear curiosity in her eyes.

Xie Jinlan glanced at her lightly, and said in her heart: Being in the royal family can still grow into such an easy-to-see character, she must have lived a very happy life since she was a child......

It wasn't until she came to a jewelry shop that she knew that this was an industry under Wang Yuanwai's name, and that the steward here was Lin Zirou's father, Lin Steward, that Ruan Yezhen vaguely guessed the purpose of Xie Jinlan's trip.

Xie Jinlan said to the guy who entertained him: "I want to create a unique set of heads and faces to give to the woman I like, the price is not a problem, find someone who can call the shots to discuss with me." ”

When the guy heard this, he smiled even more openly, and his attitude became more attentive: "This guest officer, please come with the little one." ”

As he spoke, he welcomed Xie Jinlan into a private room on the second floor.

After Xie Jinlan sat down, he poured a cup of warm tea and put it in front of Xie Jinlan: "Wait a while, the little one will go and ask our steward." ”

After the guy left, Ruan Yezhen opened her mouth: "Xie Jinlan, do you want to find out the evidence about Lin Zirou's burial from Steward Lin?" ”

Xie Jinlan lowered his eyes and rubbed the rim of the cup, and replied softly.

Ruan Yezhen's eyebrows frowned slightly:

"For the time being, no matter how much Steward Lin knows about the events of the past, even if he is tricked by you to say useful words, if he denies what he said after leaving this door, what is the use?"

Xie Jinlan chuckled lightly and said, "Mountain people have their own tricks. ”

Just when Ruan Yezhen was about to say something more, there was a soft knock at the door.

When Xie Jinlan replied softly: "Please come in." Then the door was slowly pushed open.

Ruan Yezhen raised her eyes and saw an old man in his fifties with a goatee, a slightly chubby body, and smiling like Maitreya Buddha standing outside the door.

As soon as they met, Ruan Yezhen only felt that this person was very kind, and it was easy for people to let go of their defenses.

But the next moment, her heart suddenly sank!

Whether it was when he was able to get into the eyes of Mrs. Wang, he married the young Mama Zeng to him. Or can he manage a huge shop......

None of this is something that a harmless and scheming person can do!
