On the eighth day of the eighth month of August, the sky was clear, and the heat of the summer slowly subsided, and it was the warmest of all, like spring.

Rong Zhao got up in the morning, she liked to sleep lazy, but she didn't need to be called this day, so she got up.

"Zhaozhao, did you get up so early when we got married?" As soon as Rong Zhao got out of bed, he was pulled back to bed by Xiao Junjue. Seeing that she only cared about Rong Yun's marriage during this time and ignored him, he felt uncomfortable.

Rong Zhao fell beside Xiao Junjue, dodged his kiss, thought about it, and said, "It's early, but I was dragged out of the quilt, and I secretly fell asleep when I put on makeup." ”

Rong Zhao struggled to escape from his arm, and said disapprerovitically: "Marrying someone who doesn't want to marry, do you think I can get up early." ”

"You don't want to marry me?" Xiao Junjue's face turned cold, and she dragged her back.

At this time, Rong Zhao rolled his eyes at him, "It's like you were willing to marry me at that time." ”

Xiao Junjue was speechless, but she still hugged her tightly, and suddenly thought: "Zhaozhao, let's get married again." ”

Rong Zhao was stunned, his eyebrows raised high, "Huh?"

He slapped his forehead, "You think about it, the children are so old, and they are still married?" I think you want to get married again." Pulling Xiao Junjue's ears, "Do you have a crush on a young girl from a certain family?"

Following Rong Zhao's strength, Xiao Junjue greeted her and took the opportunity to peck her lips, "It's a shame that you said it, the children are so old, and I still look at others?"

"It's because the child is older, you think I'm old, and I think fifteen, sixteen, seventeen or eighteen girls are fresh. Rong Zhao asked Yuanyu to come into the house and wait to get up, after washing his face, he looked at Xiao Junjue who was still lying on the bed, and said with a smile: "Today, you are lazy, and you don't go to practice, you are not as diligent as Lantern Festival, and you are more and more pampered." ”

Xiao Junjue supported her with her hands, leaned sideways to watch her put on makeup, and teased: "Last night, you tossed me so much that my whole body was sore, and now my legs are weak and I can't practice." ”

Yuanyu covered the corners of her mouth and smiled secretly, Rong Zhao glanced at her, and her cheeks flushed. This Xiao Junjue has a more and more mixed temperament, and she can say anything in front of people.

Besides, she didn't toss him last night, okay? Obviously, he tossed her, but he would have beaten her upside down.

Yuanyu stopped the smile at the corner of his mouth, and took out two sets of heads and noodles from the jewelry box, one is a lighter color, and the other is precious, "Which set is the princess wearing today?" "She holds the precious one.

Rong Zhao glanced at it, shook his head, and said, "I'm not the protagonist today, it's better to keep a low profile and choose that plain one." ”

When it was almost auspicious, there was no movement on the street, Rong Zhao asked people to go outside to see over and over again, and later it was the thin monkey who went to inquire only to find out that it was the Ni family on the other side of the Huang family who made trouble again.

It's just in time today, isn't it just to block the Qian family and the Chu Wangfu?

This auspicious time is calculated, and it is unlucky to miss the time, Rong Zhao is really anxious. has been busy for so long, but he can't make a mistake at this juncture, and he hurriedly asked people to go to the Huang family to explore the wind.

Fortunately, there was Huang Xiaoting on the other side, and after making a fuss, Ni returned to the room with a disgraced face.

Later, Rong Zhao heard that it was Huang Xiaoting who said that if Ni's trouble continued, he would divorce her.

At the auspicious time, the sedan chair arrived at the door, Rong Zhao stood at the gate, and watched Rong Yun riding on a tall horse, dressed in red, more plump and handsome than before, with a high-spirited attitude, and unconsciously a smile poured out from the corner of her mouth, with a motherly smile.

Qiushui teased her beside her, this is just her brother marrying a daughter-in-law, if persimmon marries a daughter-in-law in the future, what will she be like.

Huang Xiaoting loves this daughter very much, and it took a lot of time to carry the dowry that followed the sedan chair team to the palace of the king of Chu.

When worshipping the high hall, Mrs. Rong San insisted that Rong Zhao Xiao Junjue sit on the upper seat with her, Rong Zhao retreated, but Mrs. Rong San insisted, and she had to sit in this high hall to receive this ceremony.

"Send it to the cave room!" With this singing, a couple of newcomers were sent into the cave room, Rong Zhao quietly let out a breath, and finally there was no mistake in the middle.

At the end of the day, the people were not getting married, but Rong Zhao was tired and paralyzed. Since the morning, her feet and her mouth have not stopped, she wants to open the banquet, the subordinates want her to assign, the guests want her to socialize, everything is inseparable from her.

After a few more glasses of wine, in the evening, I was so tired and confused that I couldn't even move my toes when I lay on the bed.

Rong Yun's marriage is like a big stone in Rong Zhao's heart, it finally fell, maybe he was really tired, and after sleeping at night, he didn't wake up until noon the next day.

In September, it is the autumn harvest season, and Xiao Junjue routinely goes down at this time of year to inspect the harvests in various places.

Rong Zhao was lazy on this day, first Rong Yun's marriage, and then the birthday of the protector, the birthday of the female princess, all in the same month, plus to calculate the filial piety of Zhuangzi, the trivial expenses in the house, her busy feet did not touch the ground.

can be regarded as busy with these things in front of her, she just wants to have a good rest, and she no longer has the strength to accompany him around the country, so she stays in the house to take care of the two children.

On this day, Xiao Junjue has been gone for five days, and in five days, Rong Zhao was panicked in his heart, and he was not interested in doing anything, and he was listless.

Bored, she sat under the osmanthus tree and pulled the petals, counting how many hours Xiao Junjue could come back.

Usually he patrols for half a month, she pulls up a large handful of begonia flowers, smashes them on the table with the drawing paper, and throws them on the ground after the leaves fall off.

"Princess. Qiushui came in from outside the door, saw the flowers and leaves in the ground, and forgot what to say in surprise, "Uh·······"

Rong Zhao was depressed, glanced at her, looked at the sky, and said angrily: "What's the matter?"

Damn Xiao Junjue, it's been five days, and she didn't even send her a letter, she must have forgotten about her when she saw a young and beautiful woman.

Now Qiushui is the housekeeper of the inner house of the King of Chu, basically she is in charge of everything, and she doesn't have to worry about Rong Zhao. But today's matter must be decided by the young lady.

Qiushui said: "Does Miss still remember Wen'er, the daughter of the Xia Hai family, who ran away with the drama of Lihuanyuan a few days ago?"

Xia Hai is one of the stewards of the Chu Palace, and he has been in the palace for six years, and he is considered an old man. His wife's wife works in the kitchen and is in charge of things in the kitchen, and they all call her Sister-in-law Xia.

During the spring, Sister-in-law Xia brought her daughter in and asked Rong Zhao for an errand to do, Rong Zhao saw that the girl was clever and clever, so he pointed out to Xiao Rongsheng's yard.

It's just that this girl is too merry and dexterous and not too good, and I don't know when she hooked up with the little drama of Lihuanyuan who came to the house to sing twice a month.

Naturally, this ordinary family looks down on the drama, although Xia Hai and his wife are subordinates, but the subordinates of the Chu Wangfu are not as good as other places, and their status is much higher than that of singing, and they do not agree with their daughter being with the drama.

Who would have thought that five days ago, Wen'er's girl actually ran away with the little drama.

Rong Zhao glanced at Qiushui and said casually: "What's the matter?

"It's not. Qiushui's face showed a little pity and sighing, and said: "This morning, the Xia family reported that Wen'er was found dead in Nangang Village, five miles outside the city. ”

"Dead?" Rong Zhao's face was full of surprise, and he hurriedly asked, "How did you die?"

Qiu Shui said: "This is exactly what the slave and maid want to return, early this morning, someone from Nangang Village came to report the case, saying that someone died in the family, and the government brought the body back. Because no one knew whose house it was, they put out a notice asking them to claim the body. Someone recognized it as Wen'er from Xia Hai's family and came to inform him. Xia Hai and his family went over to take a look, and it was really Wen'er. ”

Sigh lightly, Wen'er looks good, she is only fifteen this year, it is the youth and young Ai, she died like this, it is really regrettable.

"I have already experienced corpses, and I said, Wen'er was by someone," Qiushui lowered his head, it was really unspeakable, paused, and continued: "Rape first and then kill, calculating the time, it was about the same time last night." ”

Rong Zhao gasped and asked again, "Where is the scene of eloping with her?"

"Sent to jail. "This matter is quite complicated, Qiushui will tell the ins and outs again, and Rong Zhao of the province is confused, "That's the case, according to the play, they fled from the city, and they didn't know where to go for a while, the player had a cousin who happened to live in Nangang Village, not far from the city, so he went there, wanted to settle down for a few days, and then thought about where to go." Last night, there was a little argument between the two of them, and the drama drank more wine and fell asleep early. This morning, I was still called up, only to find out that Wen'er died last night. ”

Rong Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, thought about it, and said: "Being violated and killed, it stands to reason that someone should hear it, since he was drunk, then his cousin didn't hear the movement last night?"

"His cousin is a pig killer, just in time to go to the town yesterday to buy pork, and only came back this morning, and Wen'er was also found dead in the firewood room. His cousin used to have a daughter-in-law, but she died of illness last year, and she has always lived alone. ”

"That's all that little drama and Wen'er left?" Rong Zhao involuntarily raised his eyebrows and repeated.

After a quarrel, there were only two of them left in the house······

Qiushui understood what Rong Zhao meant, and nodded, "Not only that, but the money and jewelry that Wen'er stole from the house when she left are gone, so now, the Xia family is suing that little dramatist, saying that he murdered Wen'er for money and raped Wen'er." Also, if you are a single family, there are only two people, so you won't suspect him. ”

Rong Zhao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I can't say for sure." Seeing that Qiushui still had something to say, Rong Zhao glanced at her with disgust, "You just told me about this?"
