Chapter 218: I spent two nights alone with Lord Zhao

The Liang Mansion is not big, it is composed of six courtyards with three entrances, and the rich families are indeed incomparable, how the main house is decorated, Zhou Mujiao does not know very well, but this guest house is simple and quiet.

"This is the room where Lord Zhao lives." Liang Qiao was at a loss, and he spoke quietly, "Those people will come over every day to do his work, but they don't allow me to get close, and I don't have the opportunity to meet Lord Zhao alone, so I don't know what their conversation is." ”

After speaking, he glanced back at Miss Liang, hesitated for a moment and said, "Fragrance, you can go back to Orchid Garden." ”

Miss Liang's name is Liang Fenfang, it sounds quite atmospheric, Liang Fenfang walked out according to her words, and when she was about to reach the door, she turned back and called out to her brother, Liang Qiao's face changed, and she didn't care about anything, so she dragged her away.

The brother and sister behaved like this, even a fool could see that something was wrong, but Zhou Mujiao was not in a hurry, and the others did not move, and even when the two brothers and sisters were arguing outside, no one wanted to go out to take a look, or give the brother and sister a look.

Soon, Liang Fenfang persuaded her brother to walk in again, she bit her lip, seemed to have made up her mind, walked towards Zhou Mujiao, and whispered: "Mrs. Zhao, I, I have been alone with Lord Zhao for two nights. ”

"So?"

"Lord Zhao sat in this position and told me the story of him and his wife for two nights." Liang Fenfang smiled bitterly after speaking, "Lord Zhao is a frank gentleman, the little girl doesn't dare to think about it, Mrs. can choose to believe Lord Zhao." ”

"A woman who has not left the cabinet and stays alone in a room with an adult man for two nights, even if she has never said anything or done anything, and when it spreads, the woman's reputation is basically ruined." Zhou Mujiao stared at Liang Fenfang, "What does Miss Liang want to exchange her reputation for?" ”

Liang Fenfang blushed, but said firmly: "The little girl wants to change her brother's future." ”

"Xiao Ran, you take him with you in the future."

Xiao Ran, of course, refers to Hu Peiran, Liang Gongzi, who doesn't know if he can still hold up the wall, is naturally impossible to stand by Zhao Yunjing's side from the beginning.

Hu Peiran responded, and the beam bridge next to him was already ashamed.

In fact, when the news of his father's death came, he had already woken up, but unfortunately it was a step too late, he didn't have any fame, he was a second-rate son who didn't learn and didn't know, his father didn't know how many messes he had cleaned up for him over the years, and all the clear names that his father had accumulated at the beginning were ruined.

However, Liang Qiao was ashamed and ashamed, but he did not raise any objections, it seems that the brother and sister had talked properly just now.

Zhou Mujiao sat in the place where Liang Fenfang said, closed her eyes, opened them after a while, pointed to the front and asked, "Whose house is over there?" ”

"Yes, it's the servants who live, no, it's the Lin family over there, Lin Gongzi is an ordinary scholar, and his ancestors have been out of Jinshi, so he has a little background, and the Lu family is next to the Lin family! The Lu family is a wealthy local family! Liang Gongzi patted his head as he spoke, "I remember, when those people go out at night, eight out of ten times they go in this direction!" Lord Zhao is either in Lin Gongzi's house or in Lu's house! ”

"And further afield? Whose house is it? ”

"Beyond that, there are some ordinary people's homes, nothing special, vendors, butchers, etc., every family has children."

"And beyond that?" Zhou Mujiao changed her words, "Is there anything special about this direction?" ”

Liang Qiao can't say, but Liang Fenfang knows better, Liang Fenfang said: "Walk along this direction, there is a path leading to the outside of the city, about thirty miles outside the city, there is a big temple, called Nanshan Temple, the incense is very prosperous, the abbot of the temple is the famous Master Huirong." ”

When she said this, she remembered something again, and added: "Across the mountain from Nanshan Temple, there is a temple that few people go to, called Lingshan Temple. I heard my father say that the abbot there seems to be also called Huirong, and the two masters are about the same age, but no one has ever seen the one in Lingshan Temple, and I don't know what the real face looks like. ”

Two Huirong, is it so coincidental, or does one replace the other? If it is replaced, the one who is replaced, why has it not said a word for so many years? Have a handle in the other person's hand? Or is it a master-servant relationship?

After listening to Liang Fenfang's words, everyone felt that this matter was getting more and more confusing, they seemed to have fallen into a game, and no one knew how many games there were in this game.

Zhou Mujiao was calm and explained to Xie Jiang: "Xie Shizi, bring that Lin Gongzi and Lu Caizhu, and you will go directly to Nanshan Temple." ”

"Madame, aren't you going?"

"Of course I'm going."

It's just that I didn't go to Nanshan Temple, but Lingshan Temple.

There are many pilgrims in Nanshan Temple, the road up the mountain is built into stone steps, usually the temple has a special person to take care of, each stone step is smooth and clean, even the trees on both sides have been specially pruned, and there are different flowers blooming in the four seasons, which makes people look pleasing to the eye.

In contrast, Lingshan Temple is very barren, Zhou Mujiao, Chen Gongzi and others climbed halfway up the mountain in the one-person-high weeds, and finally saw a path up the mountain.

The flood at the bottom of the mountain has receded for several days, and the road is dry, but the road on this mountain is still wet and slippery, and I don't know if it rained last night, or if someone deliberately got water this morning, as if he knew that someone would definitely come up, deliberately making it more difficult for the comers.

However, Zhou Mujiao had already prepared, climbing the mountain, of course, she had to wear her improved non-slip hiking shoes, wearing these shoes, not to mention deliberately splashing water, even if she intentionally splashed oil, it couldn't stop her from going up the mountain.

In just half an hour, Zhou Mujiao saw the door of Lingshan Temple.

It was really broken, half of the door was collapsed, and the remaining half hung there dangerously, and could fall down at any time, and at a glance, the door was still full of cobwebs, and the open space at the door was covered with grass, and the grass was up to the calves.

This dilapidated temple is uninhabited at a glance, even the grass at the door, and there is no trace of someone stepping on it.

And Liang Qiao said that those people transferred Zhao Yunjing half an hour before Zhou Mujiao arrived in Liang Mansion, if their destination was Lingshan Temple, it would be impossible not to leave traces, the traces of human trampling could not be recovered in seven days, not to mention that so many people passed by at the same time.

Chen Gongzi frowned: "Gillian, there is no other way here." ”

Hu Peiran also frowned, could it be that Zhou Mujiao's calculation was wrong, Zhao Yunjing was not in Lingshan Temple at all, but in Nanshan Temple? After all, the greater the hidden in the temple, the more crowded the place, the easier it is to fish in mixed waters, and the easier it is to hide people.

He Jiu tugged at the corners of Hu Peiran's clothes and whispered: "Mrs. Sister-in-law and Brother Zhao have a heart, Mrs. Zhao chooses to come here, in addition to having a heart with Brother Zhao, there must be other unspoken clues, clues that only the two of them can understand." ”

Hu Peiran thought about it too.

But there is no road in front of him, and the temple is completely dilapidated to live in, where are those people hiding?

Zhou Mujiao looked around with deep eyebrows and smiled: "I know where the road is." ”
