Chapter 239 The End of Yangling Marquis Mansion
Yun Xiaoxiao was stunned, "You remembered everything?"
Chu Lingyuan shook his head, "I only remembered some fragments, and I feel that Miss Xiao's voice is very familiar."
Yun Xiaoxiao perfunctorily said, "I guess it's because my voice is nice, so everyone who hears it feels familiar."
After that, Yun Xiaoxiao turned and walked out. She hadn't eaten roasted rabbit for a long time, and she really missed it.
When Yun Xiaoxiao came back, it was already evening, accompanied by the familiar smell of barbecue.
Chu Lingyuan smiled and said, "Is Miss Xiao roasting rabbit today?"
"Well, do you want to eat it?"
Chu Lingyuan was particularly satisfied listening to the familiar conversation.
"I want to."
Yun Xiaoxiao felt that the smile on Chu Lingyuan's face was really dazzling, which made her mind unclear for a while, and she even gave away her favorite rabbit leg.
Chu Lingyuan ate the roasted rabbit leg in his hand with relish, and his face was full of satisfaction without any concealment. After not seeing him for a month, Miss Xiao treated him better.
However, compared to this rapid change, Chu Lingyuan still hopes to hear Yun Xiaoxiao's voice every day.
As Chu Lingyuan thought, Yun Xiaoxiao has been living in the bamboo house since she came back this time.
Yun Xiaoxiao feels that she is not only guarding the fifth prince of the Great Chu, but also the hope of the Yun family to return to Shengjing.
Moreover, Chu Lingyuan's face is so pleasing to the eye. She will feel better every day when she looks at it, and she doesn't have to endure the nagging of her parents urging her to get married. So, she really made a profit.
In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed. Because of Yun Xiaoxiao's "careful" care, Chu Lingyuan has lost weight visibly, but his eyes and memory have recovered more than half.
On September 26, Chu Lingyuan finally saw the face that he wanted to see clearly in his dreams.
Her eyebrows are far away, her eyes are apricot blossoms, and her lips are cherry. Her face is free and unrestrained, which complements her temperament.
A free and charming face is completely imprinted in Chu Lingyuan's heart.
Yun Xiaoxiao fiddled with the herbs in her hand and glanced at him, "Why are you always staring at me?"
Chu Lingyuan smiled gently, "Because Miss Xiao is pretty."
...
At the same time, Shengjing.
In the past month of September, many things have happened in Shengjing, but the most controversial one is-
The prince's concubine Mu Xueliu committed suicide, Mu Xueliu's personal maid Bihen assassinated Yangling Marquis Mu Linyuan by herself, and then burned Yangling Marquis's mansion.
That's right, Yangling Marquis, one of the four marquises of Dachu, died at the hands of a maid, and his body was thrown into the fire by Bihen. When everyone rescued him, only a black skeleton was left.
As for Bihen, he was buried in the sea of fire with Yangling Marquis.
As soon as this happened, Shengjing immediately talked about it.
Some people said that Yangling Marquis first bullied Bihen, and finally didn't want to take responsibility, which made Bihen anxious, and finally made a move to die together.
Some people also said that Yangling Hou had gone out to have an affair again, but was accidentally caught by Bihen. Yangling Hou wanted to silence him, but was killed by Bihen instead.
Others said that it was because Yangling Hou forced Mu Xueliu to death, and Bihen avenged his master, that he committed such a heinous crime.
However, compared with the previous two, this one was obviously less hotly discussed.
When the news reached the Jing'an Palace, Shen Qing was holding Tuanzi in the sun, and Lu Yan was training the trembling Fusang Gu on the side.
"This Bihen is a loyal servant."
Only a few people knew that the least discussed one happened to be the truth of the matter.
As for Yangling Hou's death, it was completely deserved.
Lu Yan put the Fusang Gu, which had been frightened to numbness by Tuanzi, into his fingertips, "Even if he doesn't die now, he will suffer the same fate as Mu Ziqian when Qin Luan's affairs are exposed in the future."
Chu Lingxiu is now in the limelight in the court, and no one can suppress him, but when Chu Lingyuan comes back, things will be different.
Lu Yan doesn't want to involve Jing'an Palace in the Qin family case, so Chu Lingyuan is the best candidate.
It can not only overturn the case for the Qin family, but also suppress Chu Lingxiu, and also take a lot of power in the court into his own pocket. This is undoubtedly a business that Chu Lingyuan can make a profit without loss, and Jing'an Palace can also stay out of it as desired, which can be said to be a win-win situation.
"By the way, how is Qin Luan?"
First, Lin Xuefu's fire, and then Bihen's fire, the current Yangling Marquis Mansion has almost become a ruin, and it is impossible to live anymore.
"I gave her 10,000 taels of silver, and she bought a small house in the west of the city, and took Aunt Chen and Aunt Qiao to live there together."
Knowing the pain of being homeless, Qin Luan did not abandon Aunt Chen and Aunt Qiao even though she could not protect herself.
These two people, one is alone and helpless, and the other is regarded as a cash cow by her parents. If Qin Luan does not care, I am afraid that they will really end up being harmed.
It is precisely because of this kindness that Shen Qing gave her 10,000 taels for future use, and secretly helped them solve potential troubles.
The world is unfair, and women have a hard time. Shen Qing will not be stingy if he can help.
Lu Yan knew Shen Qing's thoughts, but still sighed: "Although it is stable now, the road ahead will still be difficult."
Shen Qing's eyes flashed with some determination, "Lu Yan, I want to help her. The Qin family has been wronged, and now there is only this daughter left. I can't just watch her walk towards death step by step."
Although the Qin family case has been over for many years, Qin Luan is still guilty. The Qin family case involves many things. If Qin Luan wants to overturn the Qin family case, there is only one way to go-
beat the drum to report the case and exchange her life for the reopening of the Qin family case.
Qin Luan is the daughter of a guilty minister and has no qualifications to beat the drum to complain, so she can only exchange her life for this qualification.
Lu Yan held her slightly cold fingertips and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will not stand idly by for the person you want to protect."
Shen Qing shook his head, "You don't have to intervene in this matter."
Because compared to Lu Yan, Shen Qing thought of a better candidate-
Supervisory Censor, Qiu Ming.
Duke Jiang and the prince did such a cruel thing to the people. As a supervisory censor, Qiu Ming's duty was to report to the emperor.
...
On the eighth day of October, Shengjing had the first snow of the year.
And at this time, it had been three months since Chu Lingyuan disappeared.
Many officials in the court began to believe that Chu Lingyuan had died outside, and they showed goodwill to Chu Lingxiu one after another. Many officials who had remained neutral before also began to change sides.
Qi Yichuan and Xie Zhaohua searched the surrounding villages along the river flow, but they were still unsuccessful.
At the end of the river, there was the boundless sea.
According to the current situation, Chu Lingyuan's chance of survival was actually very small, but Xie Zhaohua was unwilling to give up. She didn't believe that Chu Lingyuan died like this.
She must find him!
At the foot of Yufeng Mountain, Xie Zhaohua looked at the churning river in front of her, and tears kept accumulating in her eyes.
She had found the place where the river entered the sea from the place where Chu Lingyuan had the accident, but she still didn't find the person she was thinking of.
Something in her heart seemed to collapse, and Xie Zhaohua couldn't stop crying, and all the grief turned into painful sobs.
Qi Yichuan, who was not far away, looked at Xie Zhaohua's weak and helpless back, and pain continued to spread in his eyes.
At this point, Qi Yichuan finally understood why Xie Zhaohua's eyes had lost their former agility since she got engaged to him, because her heart had never been with him.
At this moment, a "Zhaohua" sounded, and Xie Zhaohua and Qi Yichuan subconsciously looked behind them at the same time.
