Wen Yuan said in her heart that she would always show other clues in the future, so she didn't mention the doubts in her heart for the time being, and only urged her wife to rest early, and she basically didn't close her eyes after two busy days, so she should have a good rest.

After such a dreamless night, before Yan Bing woke up early the next morning, he dressed himself in the dark and wanted to go out quietly.

Yan Bing heard the squirming movement and opened his eyes in a daze, just in time to see his back when he turned around and was about to be immediately, and suddenly startled.

She raised her white and tender arms slightly, stroked her black forehead hair, and opened her lips in a soft voice with hazy apricot eyes: "Huh?" What are you doing here? ”

When he heard this, he immediately stopped, turned back and shook his wife's hand and explained: "I promised Lin Kai's wife yesterday to return her body in the afternoon, and I plan to rush to the yamen for examination now. ”

His words made Yan Bing dumbfounded, and he didn't care about the brocade being half-covered, so he raised his elbow and raised his slender neck and said, "But, I need you to accompany the three dynasties back to the door today!" ”

How can a husband who is married to a dedicated husband break his heart? It's not that he wants to ignore the wronged Lin Kai, but that his return to the door is also an important event that can't be staggered.

Even if there was no light candle in the house, Wen Yuan seemed to know what she was thinking, and hurriedly reached out to press her back, explaining: "Beware of catching a cold!" Don't worry, I'll go back as soon as I go, and find out the truth and let others handle it - the arrest of the suspect is under the control of the county lieutenant, and I don't need to be there. ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, it's not too late." Seeing this, Yan Bing couldn't force him to stay, so she had to agree. I thought to myself, Xingyi was mostly waiting at home early in the morning to go to his grandfather's house, and he was in a hurry, so he had to let people go over and inform him first.

"Well, I must come back early," Wen Yuan nodded, and suddenly reached out and poked her slightly pursed cheek, and reminded with a smile before leaving, "Don't forget to pick up some good things in the warehouse as a return gift - don't be stingy with the housekeeper." ”

"Hmph," Yan Bing turned her head to dodge, but her cheeks were still rubbed heavily by him and stole incense, and she couldn't help but hate the back of him who walked away quickly, "Bully, I'll empty it for you!" ”

"Let's move, let's move, there wasn't much originally." Wen Yuan waved his hand behind him, not caring at all, quite a posture of his daughter disappearing and coming back.

When he stepped out of the door, there was no joke on his face, and he hurried to the county office with the ink-colored cotton coat, called the servant, and opened the coffin for autopsy.

Lin Kai's ear holes were really worn, and after shaking slightly, thick liquid oozed out of the side of his face, it must be murder, seeing this, Wen Yuan wiped his hands with a wet cloth, and looked at Guo Rugang, who had not had time to return home on duty last night.

"In this case, it should be possible to send a ticket to summon Lin Feng's family?" Wen Yuan asked in a cold voice that could not be refuted.

Guo Rugang sighed and said helplessly: "If you are really murdered, then naturally the murderer must be severely punished." After speaking, he paused slightly, and refuted in a face-saving argument: "But Brother Runze, you can't directly regard Lin Feng's family as a murderer, in case the case has nothing to do with her, wouldn't you have wronged a good person?" ”

Can it have nothing to do with her? Feng Xian'er is not the first offender, but also an accomplice! Wen Yuan sneered in his heart, but only said lightly: "What Brother Guo said is very true, I still need to take Clumsy Jing back home and return to the door, and the rest of the inquiry about the Feng family's investigation of the case, I will entrust it to Brother Guo and leave." ”

The implication is: you do what you do, please.

...... "I'm just talking about it!" Guo Rugang watched Wen Yuan drift away, and couldn't help but stare at the copper bell eyes and sigh again, lamenting his sad fate.

There are three county lieutenants in Jingxian County, Guo Rugang came the latest, and was forced to take charge of the soldiers and law that no one wanted to do, and was in charge of government affairs such as criminal law, thieves, and military defense, however, he was really not good at asking questions and arresting murderers!

Wen Yuan didn't care about how Guo Rugang was entangled, hurried home to bathe and change clothes, used morning food, and then changed into a jubilant scarlet cloak, and brought half a car of generous gifts to accompany Yan Bing back to the door.

Entering the Shu Mansion, I saw that Xingyi was already waiting at the foot of the hall steps, and when he saw his sister and sister-in-law, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

"Yo, this dress is so exquisitely embroidered, who is so skillful?" Yan Bing hadn't seen him wearing this red plum robe when he was at home before, and he felt very curious for a while.

Xingyi didn't answer his sister's words at all, only asked her if she was okay, and complained casually: "Why are you so late?" Grandfather and uncle are still waiting! ”

After speaking, he hurriedly took a pair of official kiln ice crack wide-mouth bottles from Yan Bing and his wife, and urged his sister to incense her parents.

"Well, that's a long story." Yan Bing only frowned and sighed, and did not delay the hour on the spot. It wasn't until after her parents informed her of the marriage and got into the carriage to her grandfather's house that she told her brother the truth about the wedding night.

Xingyi was stunned on the spot, and after a while, he found his voice and sighed: "It's okay if you're fine." Hey, hateful scoundrel is so lawless and bold! I believe that Brother Lin Kai was definitely framed and blamed, it's a pity, I still want to wait to see him on the gold list next spring......"

"Who says it's not," Yan Bing said and looked at her husband sitting opposite, and admonished, "You must avenge him!" ”

"It's a matter of business." Wen Yuan nodded immediately, although he never said anything like "the case must be solved", his eyes were resolute and determined.

The three of them talked, and soon arrived at the Grandfather Li Mansion, and the couple hurriedly went to the main hall to meet the dear elders who had nurtured Yan Bing.

When everyone met and finished the gifts, and sat down to chat, Yan Bing's eyes unconsciously glanced at the skirt of her cousin Li Manman diagonally opposite.

She was startled at this look, and she suddenly found that a few tender yellow plums embroidered on her cousin's water blue skirt were very similar to the red plums on Xingyi's robe!

When Yan Bing deserted and was pondering the origin of Xingyi's clothes, the eldest aunt was about to talk to her, and called a few times: "Ah Bing? Ah Bing! ”

Wen Yuan had no choice but to secretly kick his wife's foot, which made him come back to his senses and look at him suspiciously: "Huh? ”

"My aunt asked you if you were comfortable in the past two days, and if you had chosen a bed at night." Wen Yuan reluctantly made up two sentences.

Yan Bing blushed very embarrassedly and explained seriously: "It's good, it's really a little unaccustomed, I haven't slept much in the past two days." Uncle, I'm really sorry I was stunned. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I know." The eldest aunt covered her lips and smiled ambiguously.

She didn't know that Yan Bing couldn't sleep because she was scared by a thief in the middle of the night, and she was still a young couple and a newlywed Yan'er, and it was difficult to divide the battle for 300 rounds, so she didn't have a good rest.

As soon as these words came out, Yan Bing was so embarrassed that she panicked, and she drank tea again and again to cover it up.

The aunt and grandmother didn't know that she had already discussed with Wen Yuan that they would not have a round house for the time being, and when they saw that the man in the family was talking about sex with the new aunt, they simply dragged Yan Bing to the inner room alone and asked the two about getting along in detail.

"He's good, tall and strong; The two of us are still a deed; Well, after all, he is a reader, Si Swenwen ...... "Yan Bing is so embarrassed that she wants to cry without tears, so she is simply vague and blind."

"So good, so good!" The grandmother, who was a little old and dizzy, listened with satisfaction and nodded again and again.

The aunt looked at Yan Bing as if her brows were not gone, and her walking demeanor was not much different from when she was a girl, so she was a little puzzled. Just as she was about to ask more directly, a visitor suddenly came to her home, and as soon as she broke down, she revealed the matter.

This uninvited guest was Lu Jiuniang, the princess of Dingyue County, who said that the Buddha passed by here and asked her aunt for a cup of tea because she was thirsty.

This reason is nonsense when you hear it, what noble lady goes out and doesn't let her maid bring some food and drink? However, Lu couldn't refuse Nineteen Niang's request, which just freed Yan Bing, and at the same time, she could only reluctantly follow to the flower hall to accompany the guests.

On that day, Yanbing was teased by Zheng Gongxu in words, but Nineteen Niang did not stop it, but only wrote a letter of apology afterwards, saying that she had never been able to give birth to a son and daughter, and that she had a hard time in the county king's mansion and lacked the right to speak.

Yan Bing is still haunted by this matter - she has been teased and remembered by the apprentices, is it still useful to apologize? The princess of the dignified county can't say a word to her brother-in-law, right?

She thought angrily, and followed her grandmother and aunt to the flower hall, and as soon as she entered the door, she was startled when she saw Lu Jiuniang Yanbing again after a few months.

She's so thin she's almost out of shape! The cheekbones on his face are slightly protruding, his eyes are so big that he can bluff people, and a pair of clear jade bracelets are dangling on his wrists, as if they are bigger.

"Sister Ah Bing, happy newlywed!" Lu Jiuniang, who was wearing a plain flower dress, immediately raised her eyes and looked over, and several people hurriedly saluted each other.

Later, Lu Jiuniang explained as if laughing at herself: "I'm not very good with my heirs, and I didn't come to add makeup to you a while ago, please don't mind." ”

Hearing her say this, Yan Bing vaguely remembered what she heard her cousin Li Wan say that Nineteen Niang unfortunately had a formed male fetus three months ago...... She may have just gone to the temple today to do a transcendent ritual for that child.

Thinking of this, Yan Bing took a deep breath and replied in as gentle a tone as possible: "Don't get in the way, thank you Sister Nineteen for your concern." ”

"It's good if you don't blame me," Lu Jiuniang smiled lightly, and after a little greeting, she actually pulled the topic back to her brother-in-law, and apologized to Yan Bing again.

As soon as she heard the name of Zheng Gongxu, Yan Bing couldn't help but think of the Li family, and the "Ah Xu" on the wedding night, and suddenly became popular again, and she couldn't help but make a straight face even when facing the princess of the county.

Nineteen Niang didn't seem to notice it, and continued to complain: "That Ah Xu is really greedy for flowers, and he has not changed his teachings, and he still says that he can't fight." A few days ago, he clamored to mess with your marriage, and my husband was forced to lock him up and go to the ancestral hall to reflect, but who knew that he ran over the wall in the middle of the night! I didn't return all night, and when I came home in the morning, I was still injured, which is really ...... Hey......"

Yan Bing listened impatiently at first, and it wasn't until the second half of the sentence that she vaguely realized that Lu Jiuniang was doing it on purpose, as if she was reminding herself.

After Lu Jiuniang said goodbye, everyone went back to the main house to gather together, and Yan Bing hurriedly took the time to relay to her husband the words of the princess of Dingyue County.

Wen Yuan pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "She probably heard that I have reported to the police for the robbery case, and she wants us to make Zheng Gongxu a key object of inquiry or suspicion. ”

"Is that okay?" Yan Bing always felt that Zheng Gongxu was quite suspicious, even if Nineteen Niang didn't say it, she thought that this person should be checked.

"It depends on what Feng Xian'er says, maybe it will work." Wen Yuan still had good expectations at this time, thinking that County Lieutenant Guo, who liked to extort confessions by torture, might have pried open Feng's mouth and asked the truth of the matter.

It's a pity that at dusk, he took the time to go back to the county government to see the current situation of the case, but he found that his best friend Liu Zixu was being escorted into the door by the officials!

Seeing Wen Yuan looking at him in surprise, Liu Zixu, who was almost crying, hurriedly struggled and shouted: "Yuanlang, save me!" I am innocent with the sister-in-law of the Lin family, where does the sharp love come from? How could I go and assassinate Lin Kai?! ”
