Chapter 389: Big Cousin Chen Hengzhi (Second Update)

After a few spring rains, the earth is covered with green, fragrant and vibrant.

In the garden and roadside of the Jin Palace, there are more lively flowers and plants than in previous years, and most of them are sweet and delicious aromas. For example, peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, cherry blossoms, begonias, even in the first spring of transplanting, there are flowers on the few branches, which is very cute.

Han Youning felt that Zhao Chengyuan was monotonous, he only liked to plant bamboo, and he didn't think that he was just thinking about it in his heart, so he changed his usual style and transplanted the garden of the palace with flowers at four o'clock. He said with a smile that she would not be bored and lonely all year round.

She asked him, don't you think these flowers and plants spoil your cool elegance?

He laughed: People who have wives want to be lively.

Han Youning was wearing a light spring shirt, and even his steps looked light.

"Princess, slow down!"

"Watch your step!"

Han Youning was carrying a light green goose yellow twig dress, but his steps were faster, and he said to Ling'er with a smile, "I can't say it's big brother...... The big cousin is here."

Ling'er was overjoyed, "Big young master! Princess, the eldest young master has found it?"

Han Youning grinned and said, "Of course."

Seven days ago, the Weixing Dart Bureau sent news from Wuzhou, saying that it was the rescue of a scholar who had fallen into the water. The person was injured and unconscious, but looking at the scholar's appearance and his outfit, Chen Hengzhi was right. So he sent a message first, and then the person was cured and sent to the capital.

Zhao Chengyuan once comforted her that there was a miracle medicine in the dart game, and Chen Hengzhi would be fine.

It's the end of February now, and she counts the days when she falls into the water, which is also in line with her previous life. Now that Yongping Hou is dead, the eldest cousin will still fall into the water, it seems that this is just an accident.

Only then did Luo Ping come over to invite her, saying that Zhao Chengyuan asked her to go to the outer courtyard. She asked Luo Ping if someone from the dart game was coming, and Luo Ping said yes. That saw-mouth gourd, if there are too many, it is very similar to Duan Yi.

No, Duan Yi is much better than him, if Duan Yi encounters something, he won't hide it from her, he will let her know.

She guessed, it couldn't be that the eldest cousin had arrived.

Luo Ping took her out of the Hanging Flower Gate, not in the direction of the outer study, but in the other direction.

Han Youning's footsteps slowed down and asked Luo Ping, "Didn't you go to the study?"

Luo Ping didn't say much, "Back to the princess, it was the prince who ordered me to go to Fuming Courtyard."

Fumei-in Temple is a small courtyard in the outer courtyard, which is usually used as a guest room. Han Youning suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, his eldest cousin hadn't woken up yet?

She quickened her pace again, and saw from a distance that Zhao Chengyuan came out of the courtyard.

There was no warmth between his eyebrows, and he was a little serious.

Han Youning's heart sank, and he stepped forward quickly, "Lord Wang, is the eldest cousin back?" How is he?"

Zhao Chengyuan held her hand and said softly, "You Ning, there are some things that are still uncertain, don't worry."

Han Youning stared at him, "Big cousin, is he still alive?"

Zhao Chengyuan shook his head slowly, "If the person who was rescued from the boat is Chen Hengzhi, then he is already dead."

Han Youning's body shook, pushed him away and ran towards Fuming Courtyard.

How could the eldest cousin die, isn't there a miracle medicine? Aren't Huo Shan's subordinates quite strange?

Han Youning was holding on to the courtyard gate, his face was no longer bloody, and in the middle of the small courtyard, there was a coffin parked, surrounded by ice basins, and it was cold from afar.

Han Youning didn't dare to go forward, she was afraid that when she saw the appearance of her eldest cousin, she would no longer be lucky.

Zhao Chengyuan stood beside her, holding her steadily, "Let's go over and take a look, the people in the dart bureau have only seen his portrait, and they don't dare to fully confirm that it is him."

Han Youning knew in his heart that he was. It has been identified in previous lives.

But she still mustered up the courage to step forward and identify them one by one.

Lying in the coffin was a thin and handsome man, covered with ice, with a pale face and a silk cloth as white as snow wrapped around his neck. The eyes that had always looked at her with a smile were closed, and they would never smile at her again and asked, "Ning'er, guess what the eldest brother brought you."

Come?"

Since the eldest cousin was a child, whether he came back from the school or came back from a trip when he grew up, he would bring her a little gift. It's either all kinds of food, or strange gadgets from all over the place.

The clothes he wore were the cyan straight embellishments that his eldest cousin usually liked to wear, and the green jade crown with his hair tied on his head was a congratulatory gift from him and her on the day of the crown ceremony. He has been wearing it ever since.

The books in the bookcase all have the name of the eldest cousin, and the words on them are also his handwriting.

In the outfit, there is even a small box of hairpin ring comb grate, which must be a popular style in Jiangnan. There are also all kinds of fans, clay sculptures, he plans to use them to coax her, right?

"Big brother, I'm Ning'er."

Han Youning held the coffin, tears welling up in his eyes.

Chen Hengzhi in the coffin was cold and silent.

The spring breeze blew through him, and he suddenly became cold and ruthless, leaving a layer of chill and frost on his face.

She has been looking forward to it for so long, but she still can't keep her eldest cousin after all. God, after all, did not have mercy on the Chen family, and did not leave even a trace of blood for the Chen family.

The Chen family, there is no one left.

Zhao Chengyuan took her to the room, it was too cold here.

In the hall, Huo Shan's face was very ugly, and he told the ins and outs of the matter.

The dart bureau has set up a lot of patrol boats on the river in the Wuzhou area, keeping an eye on the coming and going ships. On 20 February, a passenger boat was tossed in the rapids, and several people fell overboard, including Chen Hengzhi.

After the dart master salvaged him, he was still breathing, but unconscious. The master fed him medicine and went to the doctor to see him, and on the second day he showed signs of waking up.

But that night, they were attacked, and they were all extremely high-ranking and numerous.

The dart masters fought with them outside, but after they retreated, the two dart masters guarding Chen Hengzhi in the room were killed, and Chen Hengzhi was also cut throat.

The dart master went out to follow their tracks, but the group of people seemed to have disappeared, and there was no trace of them.

Han Youning drank a cup of hot tea and stabilized his mood.

Things are really strange, that is, the death of the eldest cousin is not an accident, he must die.

"Could those killers be the ones left behind by the Marquis of Yongping? But I have already sent someone to take over the Chen family's property, and I have the prince as a backer, and they can't get any money if they kill the eldest cousin."

In her previous life, the reason why she thought it was the Marquis of Yongping did it was because the Chen family's property was finally divided between him and Emperor Qingming.

But this life is not what it used to be, even if the eldest cousin died, Emperor Qingming did not dare to blatantly move the Chen family's industry.

Zhao Chengyuan shook his head and said, "It won't be Yongping Hou's person. To let Chen Heng die so much, there must be a reason why he must die. There is also a suspicion, he is a scholar, even if the dart master saved him, he still did not find any traces in front of him. It was only found that he boarded the boat at the dock in Linghe Town, but he didn't find out which inn he stayed in, where he went to eat, and where he met friends. Even the shop where he bought the hairpin ring comb grate was found, but there was no trace of him."

Zhao Chengyuan looked at You Ning, "This is very unusual."
