Zhu Yan stared at her faces, put away her sword after a while, and she said, "I won't kill you, but I won't stay by your side anymore." I want to go back to where I belong, and as for the deed, you can give it to me if you want to, and it doesn't matter if you don't give it, that thing won't bother me. ”

Zhu Yan was not there, and it was useless for him to hold her deed, so Zhou Mujiao gave the deed to the other party without saying a word: "Do you want to go back to the capital?" Are you also a man of the Six Doors? ”

"Not before, but now it is. See you next time, you'd better stay away from me, I'm not a good person. Jiang Wuyu lived up to my affection, Li Luo ran away sadly because of me, so that he could not see his relatives again until he died, and I was trapped in this more than ten years because of her, and finally I was rescued by you......

But one yard is one yard, I will not forgive Jiang Wuyu and Li Luo because I was rescued by you, and I will not feel that I can resist the fact that Li Luo was robbed because I was trapped. ”

Zhu Yan walked to the door and turned back again: "You are a smart person, I like to deal with smart people." I hope you'll always be so smart. Zhao Yunjing treats you sincerely enough, but he is also too stupid, in the Imperial City, fools are not qualified to live. ”

Zhou Mujiao chased her out and hugged her from behind: "Thank you, Sister Zhu Zhu." ”

It was only a few counts, and she was pushed away by Zhu Yan.

Seeing Zhu Yan's figure being submerged in the night, Zhou Mujiao's heart was empty.

Although she didn't have much time with Zhu Yan, she really regarded her as a family member, and now, her family is gone......

"At the latest, on the winter solstice, we will arrive at the Imperial City." Zhao Yunjing appeared behind her, "Sister Zhu Zhu is also in the Imperial City, and we will always see each other." ”

"But she said, stay away from her."

"She'll come to you on her own."

Having said that, Zhou Mujiao's air pressure is still very low these days, so low that she doesn't even dare to dance in front of her at eighteen, and no one dares to say the word Zhu Yan in front of her.

"Gillian, this house is almost ready, I found you two auspicious days, you can see which one to use."

There was something to do, and Zhou Mujiao immediately put the unpleasant things aside.

Zhao Yunjing built a pavilion halfway up the mountain, and Chen Xiuxiu probed his brain and appeared: "Brother Zhao, I have always believed that you will not kill." ”

"Oh, really?" Zhao Yunjing smiled at her rarely, "Thank you." ”

Chen Xiuxiu's heart was beating again, and she said again: "I, I decided to join the security team, and I will protect you when you go to school and leave school in the future!" Don't worry, I'm very good at hitting you, I'll be able to ......"

Zhao Yunjing regretted why he answered just now! This Chen Xiuxiu is endless, she doesn't listen to it annoyingly, if Gillian misunderstands, what can I do?

Suddenly, Chen Xiuxiu exclaimed: "Brother Zhao, officers and soldiers!" Officers and soldiers are coming! ”

When the officers and soldiers arrived, Zhao Yunjing came down from the tree.

Liu Zhutou arched his hand: "Zhao Gongzi, Lord Zhao invites you to go to the yamen, the case of those two students has eyebrows." ”

Zhao Yunjing called Zhou Mujiao, and the two followed Liu Zhutou together.

The last time he was taken away by the officers and soldiers, Zhao Yunjing was accused of being a 'murderer', but this time he was talking and laughing with the officers and soldiers.

The villagers watched from afar and also discussed, but it was a completely different tone from last time, and at the end they shouted at him from afar: "Yun Jing, come back early for dinner!" ”

A small-footed grandmother caught up and insisted on stuffing them with food, Zhao Yunjing couldn't refuse, and after taking it, Zhou Mujiao quietly stuffed a silver horn into the grandmother's waist.

Lord Zhizhou came in person, and the ordinary people saw some mysteries, plus Liu Zhutou took people to patrol and interrogate on the streets every day, and other officers and soldiers went to the village to collect evidence, so even if the matter of Lord Chen's imprisonment was not made public, the rumors about him being belittled by the imperial court were in an uproar.

I don't know if someone in the Chen family slipped out and spread the news that Lord Chen and Chen Gongzi had severed their relationship, and suddenly the matter of which of Lord Chen or Chen Gongzi made the bigger mistake became a discussion item with the participation of the whole people.

Lord Zhao was checking the case file, and as soon as Zhou Mujiao and Zhao Yunjing went in and sat down, Jiang Wuyu came, followed by Chen Gongzi and Miss Chen.

It was not surprising that Chen Gongzi would come, but when Miss Chen was called, Zhou Mujiao faintly felt that something was wrong.

It can't be that something happened to Master Chen, right?

"When all the people come, I'll announce it directly."

Lord Zhao stood up, his face serious: "Lord Chen passed away last night, Gongzi Chen, Miss Chen, please mourn." ”

When Miss Chen received the news that Lord Zhao had asked her to come to the Yamen, she was still thinking that her father must be innocent, and Lord Zhao asked her and her brother to come over, and she must have come to pick up her father, so when she came out, she specially told the cook at home to prepare to make her father's favorite sauce bones.

The last thing I received was the news that my father had passed away!

Miss Chen collapsed, crying and making trouble, and scolded Lord Zhao for being an improper official and forcing her father to death.

"Wan'er, don't make trouble!"

Chen Gongzi endured his grief and asked Miss Chen to be sent home, and then asked Lord Zhao: "Lord Zhao, my father has always been in good health, and I believe that he will not deliberately embarrass him when he is in prison for a few days." My lord, how did my dad die? ”

"Hang yourself."

After Lord Zhao finished speaking, he took out a letter: "This is the suicide note found on his body." ”

Then he put another pile of letters on the table, and said to Zhao Yunjing: "Zhao Gongzi, these are the ones that Lord Chen left for you and Jiang Da...... Brother Jiang's, you two will look at it first. ”

The suicide note left by Master Chen to Chen Gongzi is only the old father's hopes and worries about his son, the text is simple and elegant, it is the handwriting that Chen Gongzi has been accustomed to seeing since he was a child, and there is no rush in the handwriting, it is conceivable that this suicide note, I am afraid that he prepared it early in the morning.

Chen Gongzi couldn't figure it out, how could his good father suddenly seek death?

"Lord Zhao, does my father have anything left?"

"Yes. Let you keep your hatred for Zhao Yunjing, work hard, go to the imperial city as soon as possible, and say, that there is your world. ”

Keep your hatred for Zhao Yunjing?

Chen Gongzi has no hatred for Zhao Yunjing, his little jealousy is still 108,000 miles away from hatred, and why does his father let him keep his hatred? Could it be that his father's death is related to Zhao Yunjing?

"Lord Zhao—"

Zhao Yunjing intercepted him: "Lord Zhao, I think that Chen Gongzi, as the son of the person concerned, has the right to know everything. ”

There is an extra case file in his hand, and on the yellowed paper, it is written that the corruption case of Lord Li, the governor of Liangguang 20 years ago!

Chen Gongzi looked confused, twenty years ago, his father was just a small civil official who had just entered the officialdom, how could the case file fall into his hands when Master Li embezzled such an important case?

Could it be that his father's death is not related to Zhao Yunjing, but to this corruption case?

Chen Gongzi trembled, and Zhou Mujiao next to him gently patted the back of his hand: "Open it, no matter what the truth is, let's face it together." ”
