The bandit leader's name is Zhang Sheng, and his parents gave him the name of a scholar, hoping that he can grow up to gain fame and glory to his ancestors. It's a pity that Zhang Sheng has been rebellious since he was a child, in addition to his handsome appearance, his behavior can really be described by the word bohemian.

In the evening, there was a family in the village who had a birthday banquet, and everyone in the village helped to do things, and even Zhang Sheng ran over to help with great interest.

When Zhang Sheng asked, Yinzhu followed, and as for Liu Xinmei, she glanced at Meng Yuyun and said that she was not feeling good and did not follow.

Zhang Sheng is messing around with Yinzhu on weekdays, and if there is any evidence, it should be hidden in Yinzhu's house, Meng Yuyun wanted to take advantage of this excellent time to find it, but Liu Xinmei's existence made her hesitate and did not move.

Aunt Mei only promised to help her leave, but she did not promise to help her overthrow the entire village. Meng Yuyun lowered her head and pondered, after all, this is also the place where Aunt Mei has lived for more than ten years, if she knew her motives, would she ......

"They're not here today, Ah Nan, I'm ......" Liu Xinmei paused, took out a letter from her arms, she stroked the edge of the letter, "This letter, and ask you to help me bring it to him." ”

When Meng Yuyun saw the letter, her eyelashes trembled, her throat was a little dry and itchy, and the words that had been held in her heart for a long time almost blurted out, but she had to endure it.

Looking at the woman in front of her who regarded faith as a treasure, Meng Yuyun softened her tone and asked, "What kind of person is that person?"

Liu Xinmei didn't seem to expect the girl to ask such a question, what kind of person?

Her gaze looked into the distance for a long time, and the person in her memory had already been blurred to see clearly.

"He's my cousin, a very gentle and stocky man." Liu Xinmei fell into memories, "We were childhood sweethearts and engaged in a baby kiss, and he was originally going to marry me." ”

Liu Xinmei is the daughter of a big family, she grew up with her cousin in Chang'an, she was born with a good appearance, and there are not a few people who love her, but she only focuses on her cousin wholeheartedly.

After she left the Liu family, she thought about it countless times.

If at the age of fourteen, there was no kindness and saved Zhang Sheng's life, would she and her cousin live happily and warmly together according to the original plan?

Zhang Sheng lived in the Liu family, as a subordinate, he often made the eldest lady of the Liu family happy, at that time Liu Xinmei felt that she had found a confidant, a friend who could make friends.

But who knows......

"Zhang Sheng, that brute, on the night I was in time, he ruined my innocence!" When Liu Xinmei said this, the hatred bursting in her eyes made Meng Yuyun's heart tremble.

was ruined by his subordinates, and he was caught raping in bed. The dignified and ladylike eldest lady of the Liu family became a slut that everyone shouted and beat overnight, and her mother was poked in the back by her father and scolded the slut, Liu Xinmei has always been very careful and cautious, she is very afraid, afraid of being kicked out.

The cousin's family withdrew, which became the last straw that crushed her. From then on, there was no hope for her life.

"I wanted to hang myself, but I didn't succeed, and instead I ended up in this prison." Liu Xinmei almost gritted her teeth and said those unbearable pasts.

Meng Yuyun originally didn't trust Aunt Mei a little, but after hearing these words, she saw that Aunt Mei's eyes were full of hatred for Zhang Sheng, and the slightest hesitation in her heart disappeared without a trace.

She stepped forward and took Aunt Mei's hand, raised her head and said softly: "I can avenge you, the yamen has always wanted to exterminate this group of mountain bandits, someone will come to save me tomorrow, I just need to get the evidence......"

Meng Yuyun told the story of the Chang'an homicide case in 1510, but Aunt Mei was emotionally unstable, and she hid the fact that one of the deceased was her cousin.

Liu Xinmei said that Zhang Sheng did take someone out a few days ago, but she didn't know what she was going to do, but when she came back, Zhang Sheng looked very happy.

Meng Yuyun bit her lip and thought: If you kill your rival, can that man be unhappy?

"Zhang Sheng is cautious, if he really killed someone, there should be nothing left."

Meng Yuyun remembered that Lu Shang had said that the shopkeeper of the rice shop had lost a silver hairpin, and he often played with it in the palm of his hand.

She felt that it was very likely that it was Aunt Mei and the shopkeeper's love affair, Zhang Sheng saw it when he killed someone, and then took it away.

Meng Yuyun denied Aunt Mei's words, "Not necessarily, maybe...... Can find something. ”

Liu Xinmei looked at the little girl in front of her, who was half shorter than herself, but she handled things decisively and calmly, not like a child at all, and couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

They searched all over Yinzhu's room, and there was nothing strange about it except for some things that their daughter's family loved to use. The only thing that made Meng Yuyun feel strange was the wild lily placed by the window, which was still blooming yesterday with a watery body, and tonight it was dying with petals.

Aunt Mei was restoring the place where they were messy, while Meng Yuyun was holding her chin and pondering, she thought: With Zhang Sheng's person, even if it is evidence, it should be placed next to the person closest to her. Zhang Sheng's parents died, and in addition to Yinzhu, only Aunt Mei was the closest.

"Aunt Mei! Will it be in your room? ”

As soon as Meng Yuyun's words came out, she received a strong denial from Aunt Mei, and her eyes widened, "That beast doesn't have a good relationship with me, how can he put this thing related to his life on me?" ”

Meng Yuyun didn't speak, she looked at Aunt Mei with complicated eyes, although she didn't quite understand the feelings between adults, she also felt that Aunt Mei was a little weird.

Liu Xinmei regretted it as soon as she said it, she didn't know why, when she heard Meng Yuyun's words, a trace of panic flashed through her heart.

In order to show her innocence, Liu Xinmei took Meng Yuyun directly to her house, her house was much simpler and simpler than Yinzhu's.

Meng Yuyun looked on the dresser for a while, Aunt Mei had very few jewelry, just a bracelet and two pairs of earrings, and she didn't see any silver hairpins.

A little disappointed in her heart, Meng Yuyun was about to give up, she didn't know what was on the tip of her shoes, she lowered her head, and her eyes fell on a small red box under the dresser.

It was covered in dust, and it looked like it had been abandoned by its owner a long time ago.

Meng Yuyun squatted down, looked at the box thoughtfully, and saw that there was a place on it that was obviously much less dusty, she turned her head and asked, "Can I open it?"

"Absolutely!" Liu Xinmei was a little impetuous, she casually glanced at the mahogany box, which was given to her by Zhang Sheng in the past, and it was useless, so she left it in the corner and covered it with dust.

Meng Yuyun carefully moved the mahogany box out, opened it gently, and the mahogany box was empty, only a silver hairpin lay quietly inside.
