After Nangong Yue left Yingxueju, she went straight back to Bixiao Hall.
The sound of bells and the little guy's "giggling" laughter came from the west side, and Nangong Yue immediately followed the sound, and the little guy was really playing inside.
Next to the little guy sat a familiar figure with a slender back, and she was holding a copper bell to tease Xiao Yu.
Nangong Yue blinked, smiled and blurted out, "Sister Fei."
Xiao Fei turned around when she heard the sound, got up and greeted Nangong Yue: "Sister-in-law."
She stepped forward, handed a few pieces of silk paper in her hand to Nangong Yue, and said solemnly, "Sister-in-law, I've read all of this."
Nangong Yue just glanced at it casually, and knew that the sheets of paper in Xiao Fei's hand were the ones she gave her before.
She took the sheets of silk paper that were full of writing, and the corner of her mouth was slightly hooked, and she greeted Xiao Fei to sit down and speak.
Nangong Yue looked at Xiao Fei earnestly, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Fei, what do you think?"
But there was still no shy look on the little girl's face.
"Sister-in-law, they are all very good." Xiao Fei said sternly, those black eyes were as crystal clear as a mountain stream, and as cold and bright as the silver moon in the night sky.
"..." Nangong Yue's mouth froze for a moment, almost rubbing her temples with a headache.
After a short while, Nangong Yue took Xiao Fei's plain hand, looked at her, and said earnestly, "Sister Fei, a woman's life is not easy, she has been bound by three obedience and four virtues since she was a child. The husband is respected, but also filial to the elders for the husband's family, cooking the food, managing the inner courtyard, spreading the branches... There is a saying: 'Men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man', but life is less than a hundred years. , a man can do it all over again, but what about a woman?"
Once a woman marries the wrong man, it is very difficult to go back!
Choosing a son-in-law is a lifetime thing.
Xiao Fei listened attentively to what Nangong Yue said, but she was still confused.
She knew that sister-in-law was doing her own good, and after pondering for a while, her expression became more serious, and she said, "sister-in-law, I think the people you picked for me are good."
She is by no means perfunctory, and she also knows that marriage is a matter of life. Since her elder sister-in-law gave her these lists last month, she didn't know how many times she read them, and now she's almost recited.
It is precisely because of this that she knows that these young masters are the best sons in a million, whether in terms of talent, character, family background, etc.
From these pieces of paper, she could feel how much her sister-in-law spent in it.
Because of this, she would say that they are all very good, really good!
Xiao Fei looked at Nangong Yue without blinking, trying to convey her thoughts to her.
Outside the window, a breeze blew past, making the branches and leaves rustled, and a few wisps of breeze blew into the house and gently brushed on Xiao Fei's cheeks, ruffled the hair on her temples, making her look a little bit more. Stubborn and flexible.
Meeting Xiao Fei's pure and clear eyes, Nangong Yue was amused, helpless, and a little moved.
Her sister Fei, still makes her feel so distressed!
After Nangong Yue thought about it, she just said again: "Sister Fei, there are so many men in the world, but it's not enough to achieve a good relationship, but whether the two get along well depends on their fate, otherwise, even if they are human beings. No matter how good they are, no matter how innocent their net worth is, the husband and wife are just respectful to each other..."
Xiao Fei blinked, still a little confused.
Her years of education told him that husbands and wives only need to respect each other, but the sister-in-law clearly meant that this was not enough.
So what should a couple be like?
Xiao Fei naturally thought of Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue. In her mind, the most model couples were the elder brother and elder sister-in-law.
Thinking about how eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law get along on weekdays, Xiao Fei seems to have caught something from the daze and understands a little. What she sees now is only the four young masters in the text. She doesn't know what kind of temperament they are, and she can't tell her, so...
"Sister-in-law," Xiao Fei raised her eyes thoughtfully to Nangong Yue, and said, "I want to see these four young masters, and then decide."
So good. The corner of Nangong Yue's mouth twitched slightly, looked at Xiao Fei gently, and responded with a smile.
It seems that he has to prepare another blind date feast for Sister Fei, but three of the four young masters are now on the expedition with the army, and this matter will have to be arranged after January...
"Cuckoo..."
The little guy's crisp laughter sounded again in the west, attracting the attention of the two.
I saw that there was a pink plum in the right hand of the little guy who didn't know when, and staggered towards the two of them, smiling very happily.
"Mother...Mother!" The little guy wanted to run before he even learned to walk, so that the silk girl who followed behind him was trembling, until the little grandson walked in front of Nangong Yue, who supported him on his squeak. Under the nest, the silk lady secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The little guy eagerly sent Fanmei to Nangongyue, and Nangongyue went to pick it up with a smile, but he refused to let go, waving and shouting "Aah".
Nangong Yue was confused by him, but Xiao Fei, who was on the sidelines, understood clearly and laughed, "Sister-in-law, Brother Yu is trying to make a hairpin for you." After speaking, Xiao Fei faced Xiao Fei with a smile on her face. Xiao Yu praised, "Our brother Yu is really good and filial!"
Xiao Fei also walked over on purpose, grabbed the little guy's fleshy, chubby little fist and helped him insert the plum blossom into Nangong Yue's hair.
The little guy looked at his mother and seemed very satisfied, and finally smiled again, Nangong Yue couldn't help but bowed his head and kissed him on the cheek.
After the little guy finished his work, he walked back. After a while, he instructed the silk lady to take another pink plum from the vase on the tall table in the corner. This time, he walked towards Xiao Fei and helped her with the hairpin. flowers.
Xiao Fei only felt that her heart was turned into water, ripples swayed in circles, and she kissed the little guy on the face, praising the little nephew again and again.
There was a pot of silver frost charcoal burning in the house, warm, like that mild spring day.
An afternoon passed in a blink of an eye, and night fell in Luoyue City as usual. At night, the weather suddenly became a lot colder.
Xiao Xiao Yu, who was tired from playing, fell asleep early. The night was quiet. Nangong Yue and Thrush Mei were flipping through the account books sent from the shop and Zhuangzi in the small study.
After looking at it for more than half an hour, Nangongyue raised her eyes slightly tired and rubbed her brows. An urgent sound of picking the curtain just sounded, causing Nangongyue to raise her eyes subconsciously.
Baihui came suddenly, her graceful face was unusually solemn, and even her steps seemed a little messy. Her strangeness even saw a few thrushes and looked at each other.
"Prince Concubine Zhu, butler Zhu said that the clothes in the dungeon were rescued." Baihui saluted and reported straight to the point.
This unexpected news made the small study room silent for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Nangong Yue frowned slightly, unable to hide her shock, and asked, "What's going on?"
Since she took off Qiyi, she has been locked in the dungeon of Bixiaotang, and she plans to wait for Xiao Yinian to come back to deal with it, but she did not expect Qiyi to be rescued!
Bixiaotang has always been heavily guarded, not to mention the heavy dungeon. Since she and Xiao Yi came back, there has never been such a mess in the past few years...
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue's lips pursed into a straight line, and she was in shock.
Baihui hurriedly replied, "Concubine Hui Shi, it was said that someone broke into the dungeon quietly tonight, but the clothes were gone."
That is to say, I don't know the identity of the other party... Nangong Yue frowned, stood up, and commanded in a deep voice, "Baihui, Haitang, you two come with me to have a look."
Hearing this, Lily and Haitang couldn't help but glance at each other quickly, slightly hesitant. This thief can definitely be called a daring master of art. He even dared to break into the Zhennan Palace, and even broke through the dungeon and took people away. If the thief hasn't left yet...
Lily and Haitang were alert, but they still responded in unison.
At the same time, Thrush quickly put a thick cloak on Nangong Yue, and after that, the three master and servant quickly walked out of the house and went all the way to the outer courtyard.
It was already half past the hour, and it was pitch-dark outside. Baihui and Haitang were each carrying an octagonal palace lantern in their hands, and the dim yellow lights illuminated the road ahead...
The dungeon is located in the northeast corner of the outer courtyard of Bixiaotang. On the surface, it looks like a deserted yard. Because one year, a large tree in the yard was torn down by lightning, and the fallen tree crown crushed the house, and then the yard was abandoned. . The servants in the mansion feel unlucky and rarely come here on weekdays.
At this moment, there is a lot of noise around here.
Zhu Xing, Ren Zinan and several guards were also in the yard. The yard was illuminated by torches one by one. The flames were burning and jumping, showing a little bit of agitation. The air was filled with a thick smell of blood. Into the yard, the smell of blood rushed to the face.
Nangong Yue couldn't help but frowned, and quickly glanced around the yard. The pools of blood on the bluestone floor were dazzlingly red.
Nangong Yue's eyes stopped for a moment on the blood, and she felt her fists clenched in her sleeves.
She is a doctor, even if she didn't see the corpse with her own eyes, from the blood loss on the ground, you can roughly judge that at least three or four people died here...
Thinking about it, a cold light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes, and the gentle temperament around her body became fierce at this moment.
Zhu Xing was a little surprised when he saw Nangong Yue coming. Worried that the mess here would frighten the princess, he hurried forward and blocked Nangong Yue's sight.
"Prince Concubine." Zhu Xing and Ren Zinan clasped their fists together and saluted.
Nangong Yue asked solemnly, "Zhu Xing, how many people have we lost?"
Zhu Xing was stunned, the gentle and elegant appearance of the prince's wife always made him forget that their prince was not a pampered canary. When she was in the capital, the prince had experienced a lot of storms...
Now that the eldest son is not there, they should take the lord's concubine as their leader.
Zhu Xing's expression was condensed, and his tone was a little difficult to reply: "Prince Prince, five people... The five guards who came to guard our dungeon were killed."
While he was talking, he and Ren Zinan by his side both released coldness. To them, these guards were not only subordinates, but also brothers.
Nangong Yue closed her eyes and warned, "Take care of their families!"
"Yes, Concubine Shizi." Zhu Xing responded forcefully.
After that, Nangong Yue asked Zhu Xing to take her into the dungeon.
The dark area in the dungeon is much colder than the outside, and a cold wind blows from bottom to top, gloomy, as if suddenly in an ice cellar.
Zhu Xing, holding a torch, led the way in front of him, walking down the stone steps, reminding Nangong Yue from time to time to be careful. About halfway through, there was another smell of blood, which was getting stronger and stronger... When I walked down the last stone steps, I saw that there was also a puddle on the ground next to a wooden table on the right hand side. bloodstains...
"Prince Prince, please..."
As Zhu Xing said that, he continued to walk forward until he stopped in front of the third dungeon, pointed to the bottom of the prison door and said, "Prince Prince, look..."
The torch in Zhu Xing's hand moved in the direction he pointed, and Nangong Yue's eyes fell on the iron lock on the ground. It was cut with a knife or a sword by a sharp weapon like mud.
Obviously, the iron lock must have been broken from outside the cell, and then the cell door was opened.
Zhu Xing also looked at the iron lock and talked about what happened tonight.
Before the incense stick, several guards who came to change shifts tonight smelled blood outside the courtyard, and then found four corpses in the courtyard. The guards inside were also killed, and the clothes-clothing cell was already empty...
The only thing that can be speculated at the moment is that Qi Yi did not escape by himself. Someone should have sneaked into the Bixiao Hall and killed the four guards outside with lightning speed, so fast that they didn't call out for help. opportunity, and then entered the dungeon to kill the last guard, broke the door lock, and rescued the clothes.
At the same time as he spoke, Zhu Xing's body was almost stretched into a taut bow, and the jumping light of the torches formed a dark and eerie shadow on his face, half-bright and half-dark, and bloodthirsty flashed in his eyes. murderous intent, and a deep sense of self-blame.
Lord Shizi trusted himself, so he entrusted the guards of Bixiaotang to himself, but now, under his own eyes, even the dungeon has been broken into and robbed!
Thinking, Zhu Xing's eyes were covered with a haze.
Not to mention the fact that the clothes were robbed, the most important problem now is that there is a major loophole in the guards of Bixiaotang, which will give some malicious people an opportunity to let one or even a group of people take advantage of it. An unknown person quietly sneaked into the Bixiao Hall and did whatever they wanted...
Zhu Xing couldn't imagine that if this group of people did not target the clothes, but instead aimed at the concubine and the grandson...then he would die without redemption!
Originally, he thought that the defense of Bixiaotang was like an iron bucket, water could not be splashed, and needles could not be inserted. It seems that he was too careless!
Who was it that rescued Qiuyi?
Is it the remnants of Baiyue? !
The question is, how did the remnants of Baiyue sneak into the Bixiao Hall? !
One question after another appeared in Zhu Xing's mind, and he couldn't answer it for a while.
The most urgent task is to arrest people first!
Zhu Xing took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then said: "Prince Prince, my subordinates have used the token of the prince to dispatch a team of city guards to search the city, and now it's night, the city gate is closed, and the clothes are taken away. The people must still be in the city and haven't gone out!"
After thinking for a moment, Nangong Yue nodded and said, "Try not to disturb the people. Also, if no one is found before dawn, I will ask the prince to seal the city!"
When he said the last few words, Nangong Yue's tone became sharp and powerful.
Zhu Xing's eyes lit up, the anxiety in his eyes eased a little, and he hurriedly said, "Thank you, Concubine Prince."
He was also worried that when the city gate opened at dawn, he was afraid that the thief would take the opportunity to escape. Now that there is a prince concubine who is willing to come forward and ask the prince to seal the city, he will have more confidence in doing things.
Without further ado, Zhu Xing hurriedly left.
At this time, it was already the second watch, and in the dark night, some sharp gongs and drums sounded from time to time in the streets and alleys of the city.
"Boom! Boom!"
The people were about to change their clothes and go to the couch, but they found a mess of footsteps outside, and torches illuminated the street outside as bright as day.
Someone quietly looked out through the crack of the window, and immediately found that the patrolling guard was searching for something in the city. All kinds of noisy voices were mixed together, and the momentum was huge.
The patrolling of the city guards must have caused such a big battle again. Most of the people suspected that there was another Nanban spies in the city.
This night, the streets of Luoyue City were bustling with noise, and it was more lively than during the day. How could those people sleep peacefully? All of them were so excited that they could not wait to go out and help search for the damned Nanban spies, but they were arrested by the people who patrolled the city. dismissed...
Until the sound of gongs and drums on the third watch, the houses in the city were still brightly lit.
This is destined to be a sleepless night!
The sound of horses' hooves and footsteps all around is endless.
After that, the gongs and drums of the fourth watch also sounded "dong dong"...
Teams of patrolling city guards are still expanding the scope of the search non-stop, but Luo Yue City is too big, so many streets and alleys will not be able to be searched in a short time.
Seeing the gleam of dawn illuminating the eastern sky, many people frowned. It was almost dawn, which meant that the city gate was about to open...
"Captain," a young city guard slowed down his crotch and said to a square-faced man in his thirties, "it's almost dawn, people haven't been found yet, do you think? Send someone to notify Butler Zhu over there..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw that the captain of the patrolling city guard raised his hand and motioned for him to keep silent.
The captain of the patrol city guard moved his nose, looked forward thoughtfully, and said, "Xiao Guo, do you smell something?"
The city guard known as "Xiao Guo" was stunned, and he sniffed hard... At this moment, a cool breeze in the early morning blew on his face, and also brought the smell in front of him.
"It seems... is the smell of blood."
Before Xiao Guo could finish his words, the captain of the city guards had already stepped out, and the four city guards behind him immediately followed. Everyone vaguely noticed something, and the faces of young people showed through. With a trace of anticipation and fierceness.
A few horses turned left at the next street intersection and turned into a small alley. When they reached the center of the alley, the captain of the patrol city guard took the lead to slow down the speed of the horse.
This alley is very narrow, only enough for two people to walk side by side, and there are no obstacles around, so the front view is clear at a glance.
Dawn's alley was half-light and half-dark. At a glance, you could see the bottom of the alley. A woman in white was "nailed" to the wall by three daggers. Blood flowed from the wound on her neck all the way to her dress. Most of the white dress was dyed red.
The orange-red light of the first day shone on her body, and the blood on the white clothes was dazzlingly red...
Even if they are still more than ten meters away, they can be sure that this woman is dead.
"Da da……"
The horse's hoof lightly stepped on the ground and got closer, and could clearly see that there was no trace of blood on the woman's once-beautiful face. How unwilling and desperate she was when she was dying.
This woman must be the Baiyue person Zhu Guanjia said!
The sound of hooves all around stopped, and there was a brief silence...
"Quick! Xiao Guo, hurry up and report to Butler Zhu!" the captain of the patrol city guard hurriedly said.
After Xiao Guo responded, he immediately drove off, and the sound of the hooves gradually faded away... After a while, it gradually became louder, and the messy hooves went from far to near...
When Xiao Guo brought Zhu Xing and his group back to this alley, the sky was already bright.
Zhu Xing's sharp eyes stared at the blue-eyed woman who was in a tragic state of death. He could be sure that this woman was the one who was rescued from the dungeon of Bixiaotang last night!
I didn't expect her to be brutally murdered here!
