Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 103

[Chapter 72 Please Call Me Little Vinegar King]

Outside the Chuihuamen, Teng Yuyi saw Master Jing Chen at a glance. Jingchen Shi Taili spoke with several great monks in front of the court, and she was the shortest among the crowd.

“Teng Tanyue.” Master Jing Chen took the initiative to greet her. She was born with a pair of short legs, and she was born to be impatient, so every time she took a step, she appeared faster and more impatient than others.

Teng Yuyi hurriedly stepped forward: “Greetings to Master.” Master Jingchen was full of

guilt: “After Teng Tanyue told Pindao that day, Pindao took the two disciples to the underground palace to find them, but unfortunately the agency has already activated several times. It’s the turn, the thing is no longer where it was, and after searching for a long time, I couldn’t help Teng Tanyue find the Bu Yao.”

Teng Yuyi stabbed in the chest, but no matter how much she regretted it, she knew that she couldn’t blame anyone for this matter, so she hurried. Yili, earnestly said: “I accidentally lost the object, but the labor teacher helped me to find it. The teacher is kind-hearted and thoughtful, which is really impressive. I am not allowed to walk around without authorization for a while, and I will go to Guiguan to worship more Incense candles.”

Master Jing Chen waved his hand: “It’s too serious. Losing Bu Yao is so anxious, it can be seen that Teng Tanyue cherishes the things of his deceased mother very much.

Tanyue is pure filial piety. He came over, heard the words and sighed: “Yuzhen’s request for signing the crown has always been effective, Yu’er has been suffering from disasters recently, my aunt has long wanted to go to Guanli to burn incense, or I will be my aunt for the child. Let’s go.”

While speaking, two great monks, Mingxin and Jianxing, came over and invited Master Jingchen to have a vegetarian meal in the temple.

Master Jing Chen was a very happy person, and immediately flicked his whisk, and said cheerfully, “Then I will trouble the two masters to lead the way.”

Mrs. Du brought a few children to the Yun Hui Hall, and when she sat down, Gui Er brought the food box she brought with her. Open: “It’s all made by my aunt. It’s plain stuffed. You can eat it with confidence. Good boy, you can bear with it for a few days. When this turmoil is over, my aunt will cook you more meat dishes that you like to eat.

” Putting the ten together, he closed his eyes and murmured: “The Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, bless my Yu’er in a safe passage.”

Du Shaotang laughed and said: “Auntie, how can you be like this, you have to eat fast food and recite Buddha, and then go to Taoist temple to give incense to Jade cousin.”

Madam Du opened her eyelids and gave her son a hard look.

Du Tinglan couldn’t bear to laugh at her brother: “Don’t talk nonsense, A-Niang is in a hurry. You are so young, how can you understand A-Niang’s loving mother’s heart.”

Du Shaotang sat down next to Teng Yuyi and said worriedly, “We passed by Dali Temple in the morning. , I saw Prince Cheng talking to an old woman in front of the door. It was still dark at that time. I thought I had read it wrong. I drove my horse to look at him, and it was actually him. Isn’t this case particularly difficult? Don’t, even the

Prince Cheng wakes up early to go to the dark.” Teng Yuyi was stunned, when Lin Chengyou left last night, he said that he was going to interrogate Zhuang Mu in the prison.

She touched her chin and whispered: “It seems to be quite tricky, the murderer has not left any clues so far, but when it comes to this, Lin Chengyou has been working very hard to handle the case. He will solve the case in three days.”

Madam Du’s heart moved slightly, she turned her head to look at Teng Yuyi carefully, the child’s eyes were clear when he said this, and his expression was not twisted at all.

She looked at it carefully for a while, and felt that she was thinking too much.

She sighed with emotion: “I’ve heard that Prince Cheng is good at deciding cases, but I think it’s not always flattering from the officials below. Look at Shaotang, Tianhuang is still like this, you should be more diligent than before, look back. Your grandfather asked you to memorize a few more books, so don’t complain to me.”

Du Shaotang pouted, no matter what she said, grandma always found a way to get around him.

He fled: “I have heard for a long time that the Dayin Temple is quiet and peaceful, and my son went outside for a walk.” The

more Madam Du thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and she tightened Teng Yuyi’s hand and said, “Did you see the murderer that day? I heard that the thief I’ve killed a lot of people, so I won’t come to Dayin Temple.”

Teng Yuyi said: “Don’t worry, now Dayin Temple is the safest place in the world. There are many eminent monks and good luck around me, forgive the thief. Don’t dare to act rashly.”

She was afraid of her aunt’s wild thoughts, so she buried her head in her aunt’s arms: “I will wait for me to leave the temple, and I want to borrow Gui for you.”

Madam Du was stunned, and her eyes softened: “You have to tailor clothes for Grandpa yourself. Isn’t that right? Your elder sister told me last time that this is a good thing. If your grandfather found out, he might be very happy. Just wait. When you get home, your aunt will bring Gui Ni to you. “The

other sister Peng Huayue and Li Huaigu also met with their family members. Although they were only sleepy in the temple for one night, they seemed to be locked up for a whole year. finished.

Only Duan Qingying spoke with the servants in a low voice, clearly afraid of being heard.

Mrs. Du suddenly patted her forehead: “I almost forgot about the business. Zheng Pushe’s eldest son is about to be engaged with Wu Zhongcheng’s eldest lady, and the two intend to never send messages to the various houses. The two are considered family friends with the Teng House. You may not be able to take care of your grandfather because you are busy, so don’t forget to ask Cheng Bo to send a gift to each of the Zheng family and the Wu family.”

Teng Yuyi has never dealt with Aunt Wu in the past and this life, and only heard of Aunt Wu Wu Zhang. She has a quiet temperament and doesn’t often go out to socialize, but Wu Qi, the second lady of Wu, is quite familiar with her. She was deeply impressed by the courage of Wu Qi and Zheng Shuangyin at Yuzhen Nuguan that day. You should prepare a generous gift.

She hurriedly said, “I’ll have someone deliver a letter to Uncle Cheng later.” The

Peng family also seemed to have mentioned this matter, and Peng Huayue asked curiously, “Have you been engaged since you were a child? Why did you only greet him recently?

” It was said that it was Zheng Pushe who had counted the fate of the eldest son of Zheng, and it was not suitable for the eldest son to be engaged before he was twenty, but both Zheng Pushe and Wu Zhongcheng were very satisfied with the marriage, so they specially waited until the eldest son of Zheng reached his twenties. Thank you.”

Peng Jinxiu said, “No wonder Wu Qi said that her sister was not free to attend our flower viewing party recently. It turned out to be preparing for the engagement. Wu Qi’s sister is probably also a beauty.”

She spoke slightly. Gao, attracted everyone to cast their gazes over, Teng Yuyi glanced at it inadvertently, and saw Ropa who was hanging in the hands of Duan Qingying, his face was ugly as if covered with a layer of gray.

The servant of the Peng Mansion smiled and said, “Ms. Wu looks good and has a good temperament, and Mr. Zheng is also a good person. Chang’an even said that this marriage was a match made in heaven.

” Surprised: “Qingying, what’s the matter with you?”

Duan Qingying touched the amount with her hand and smiled lightly: “I’m not used to living in the temple, maybe it’s a cold, so I won’t have breakfast with you, go back to the east first. I’ll take a break.”

Du Fu brought a lot of snacks, Du Tinglan guessed that Teng Yuyi had enough to eat, and was presenting the snacks to Peng Huayue and others in person, and handed the two boxes to Duan Qingying: “If you don’t need breakfast, , I’ll be hungry later, this is a vegetarian snack made by my mother, take two boxes and eat it back.”

Duan Qingying didn’t take precautions to smell the aroma of the dessert, and immediately showed an expression of vomiting.

Du Tinglan and others were stunned.

Duan Qingying hurriedly turned her head and covered her throat, pressed it down abruptly, and then squeezed out a smile and

said, “Thank you.” She took the dessert with her own hands, and came over to thank Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du looked at the back of Duan Qingying hurriedly leaving with a puzzled expression.

Teng Yuyi gently pushed Mrs. Du’s arm: “Aunt, what are you thinking?”

Mrs. Du returned to her senses and smiled: “My aunt remembered that when she was pregnant, she couldn’t eat as if she had a cold. Be very careful for a few days, no matter how good the temple is, it will not be as comfortable as being at home, ask Chunrong to prepare more beds and quilts for you at night, don’t catch the cold like Duan Niang.”

Teng Yuyi heard this for the first time, She thought that pregnancy was just because her belly was getting bigger day by day, so it would be as uncomfortable as a cold.

As soon as she spoke, Mingxin came over to urge everyone to leave. Mrs. Du asked herself if she could stay with Teng Yuyi in the temple for a few days, but Mingxin politely refused, so Mrs. Du had to take Du Tinglan and Du Shaotang to leave the temple.

Teng Yuyi walked straight to the temple gate. When Mrs. Du and her daughter got into the car, the cart suddenly shook.

Du Shaotang ran to the car to take a look, and quickly turned around: “Aniang, you and sister are here to talk to Cousin Yu. I’ll go to the nearby horse bridle to rent a car.”

Madam Du and Du Tinglan said in surprise. “What’s the matter?”

“The calf has cramps and can’t travel for a while.” He then instructed Huo Qiu, “Big Brother Huo, you stay here and take care of it.”

Teng Yuyi wanted Duanfu to take care of it, but Du Shaotang quickly After making up his mind, he smiled slightly, and stopped helping Zhang Luo.

Du Shaotang was about to leave when the abbot Yuanjue and the Prince of Chun’an happened to come out. Seeing this and asking why, Mingxin said that the Du family’s cart was broken.

Mrs. Du brought a few children to salutation, and listened to the king of Chun’an County: “Give me my cart for Mrs. Du, and I will ride your expensive horse into the palace.”

Mrs. Du hurriedly said, “I don’t dare to bother . His Royal Highness, the county king, has already agreed to let the dog go to the horse bridle to hire a car.”

Chun’an county king pondered for a while: “The nearest horse bridle is also several streets away from this place, so it takes less than an hour to talk back and forth. Madam need not worry. In the early years, I received the great kindness of General Teng, and I have always admired Duke Du’s character. I happened to see it today, so I can’t stand by and watch, let alone such trivial matters, it’s really just a hands-on effort.”

Although his tone was not warm, he was very sincere. , If she refused blindly, it would appear deliberate. Madam Du had to say gratefully, “Then thank you, Your Highness.”

After Aniang sent a message, Du Shaotang also stopped and planned to hire a car. The servants moved the cart to the door, and Mrs. Du led the children to thank the King of Chun’an County again and again, and drove the horse back home.

***

Lin Chengyou looked at Chen Sangu in front of him. What she said last night was really useful. This woman was waiting at the door of Dali Temple before dawn, but her face was tightly wrapped, as if she was afraid of being recognized.

“Your wife has not been able to sleep well since she was pregnant?”

Chen Sangu’s eyes flickered with fear: “No, Madam was fine when she first married into the mansion, but after she became pregnant, she developed some strange problems. Even if she took a lunch break during the day, she had to call two maids in bed. I don’t know what I’m afraid of.”

“Does your son know about this?”

“Yes, the son has always loved his wife very much. For this reason, he specially invited Master Jing Chen to come to Yuzhen Nuguan Guan, and did a After the ceremony, I put a lot of talismans on the doors and windows, and my wife is better.” Lin

Chengyou suddenly said: “You know what your wife is afraid of.

”

Head: “If you really don’t know, why did you come to Dali Temple so early in the morning? Yesterday you heard that the murderer might know the little Jiang family, you were so frightened that you didn’t sleep all night, you are the wife of the little Jiang family, the murderer. If you want to keep your mouth shut, you will be the first one to find you. If you hide it, let alone Dali Temple, the gods can’t save you.

” , but saying these things will cause great trouble.”

She bit her lip and said to her heart: “Everyone in the house said that the former madam was killed by the madam.”

“The former madam? Da Jiang?” Lin Chengyou Deliberately said, “Isn’t your wife Da Jiang’s biological sister?”

Chen Sangu nodded nervously: “The blame is here. The wife married into the mansion last year, and everything was normal at first, but it didn’t take long for her to find the reason. The former lady’s old maids were all expelled. The former lady’s clothes and jewelry were either locked in a box by her, or they were simply moved to the warehouse. At the end of the distribution, there was not a single piece of the old lady’s old thing left.

“The people below said that those were all left by my own sister. The former lady treated her sister as well when she was alive, and even if the lady left a thought, it was fine, but the lady was so determined, as if she was afraid of seeing these things. similar.

“It happened once that Dalang woke up in the middle of the night to look for A-Niang, and the wife hugged Da-Lang in her arms to coax him. Da-Long slept in a daze and got angry and pushed his wife: You drove my A-Niang away, you put My mother gave it back to me.

“The lady changed her face on the spot. Since then, the lady has still taken care of the eldest and the aunt, but has become a lot colder in private. The slave maid felt puzzled in her heart, how could the child’s words be taken seriously, and why should the madam keep holding grudges.

“Besides these things, several old people in the manor said that the wife and the son were not clear when the wife was married. Last year, the wife came to visit her nephew. One night, the son got drunk and entered the wife’s guest room for some reason. , I stayed in my wife’s room until midnight and came out the next day. The next day they went into the house to tidy up. Although my wife had cleaned it up in advance, there were clearly traces left on the bed. My wife saw my brother-in-law the next day, and her demeanor was also charming. They all said that the wife lost her virginity before marriage. But speaking of this, the former wife has passed away for a few years, and no one has been taking care of the prince. The wife has become more beautiful than before, and the prince will be tempted. It’s not surprising.”

Lin Chengyou asked, “Do you and your uncle know about these discussions?”

Chen Sangu shuddered: “How dare you pass it on to your uncle and the prince. The uncle is very powerful and knows that we dare to talk about the master’s family. We will definitely be beaten to death. The prince is in love with his wife now, and when he hears these words, he will only say that we slander the mistress. Speaking of which, the wife made her own decision to distribute the things of the former wife. Siren, because I was so sad, I put away my sister’s belongings. Every time I talk about this, my wife will cry so hard that my son’s heart will soften.”

Lin Chengyou pulled the corner of his mouth: “Her words make some sense, It’s too far-fetched for you to guess that it was her sister who killed her just because of this, is there something else involved?”

Chen Sangu licked her dry lips: “Speaking of this, we have to start with the first wife giving birth.”

When Big Jiang was pregnant for the last time, Little Jiang lived in the mansion. Little Jiang did her best to take care of her sister, and Big Jiang also cherished her sister very much. When she was about to give birth, the house called Granny Wen. Granny Wen had seen it and said that the fetus was not big and the head of the fetus was in the basin on time. The wife had given birth once, and she expected that there would be no problem. How could he know that when Da Jiang’s attack occurred that day, he was unable to survive, and he was born in bed for two days and two nights, and finally died of blood loss.

“The prince and the uncle found someone to investigate after the incident. Feng Yu said that the former lady seemed to be eating something wrong, but the former lady’s meal was always prepared by the chef herself, and everything was checked by the former lady and the people around him. Day, one has no poison, and the other has no slippery things. Feng Yu had to say that the former wife is a delicate person. Such a person is most likely to be troubled. The wife works hard every day. He felt extremely guilty.

“The old lady was also sick in bed at that time, and passed away after a month. The prince lost his wife and mother, and he was grief-stricken all day. The mansion was busy with funeral arrangements. The matter is over.

After saying these words, Chen Sangu twisted her hand uneasy: “His Royal Highness, this is what this servant knows . I don’t know if I can help you solve the case, it’s best to catch the murderer as soon as possible.

Lin Chengyou said, “I’ll ask you again, why did your wife suddenly go to that spice shop that day? ” Did someone invite her there? Chen Sangu pondered for

a while, then shook her head and said, “I remember that I didn’t receive a message from the mansion the day before yesterday. It is estimated that Mrs. is going on a whim, but this is not surprising. Mrs. used to be like this. For example, she suddenly wanted to eat some fruit from a certain family. Go out and go out. ”

How long have you been with the little Jiang family?” ”

The old slave was assigned to serve his wife when she married into the uncle’s mansion, and it took more than a year to count.” Lin Chengyou asked again, ”

Your wife is from Huazhou, so does she know someone named Shu Liniang?” ”

Chen Sangu shook his head blankly: “I don’t know, Madam never mentioned it.” He said again: ”

Sir, the slaves came out secretly. If there is nothing wrong, the slaves will leave first.” ”

Lin Chengyou said, “Wait a minute. Is there a short man in your house?”

He measured, “It’s probably so tall.”

Chen Sangu was slightly surprised: “Such a short man? Never seen one before. ”

Think about it again. This person may not have been working in your mansion for a long time, as long as he has been in and out of your mansion.

” You must be hidden from the eyes of the servants, and the servants have never seen it before.” As soon as

Chen Sangu left, Lin Chengyou decided to find Shu Liniang’s cousin, and it happened that Yan Sizhi went to interrogate Shu Liniang’s maids early in the morning. , he got off the horse in front of the door, panting and said, “Shu Liniang doesn’t know the little Jiang family. The servants said that Shu Liniang has never mentioned the little Jiang family, and has never seen the little Jiang family.”

Lin Chengyou was stagnant . , Xiao Jiang’s and Shu Liniang are both from Huazhou. He thought they knew each other in the past, which could also explain why the murderer found out the details of the two in one day.

But the question from the two ends today, Chen Sangu doesn’t know Shu Liniang, and Shu Liniang’s servants don’t know Xiao Jiang’s. If the two have been in contact, it is impossible for the servants on both sides to know about it.

This at least shows that for more than a year, Shu Liniang and Xiao Jiang have not been in contact, so how did the two of them get targeted by the murderer at the same time?

Lin Chengyou frowned and thought, aside from the fact that they had known each other in the past, whether the two of them would have anything in common is something he doesn’t know yet.

He hurriedly took the notebook from Yan Sizhi: “Where has Shu Liniang been in the past two months?”

Yan Sizhi meticulously remembered the record, and when he heard the words, he clicked on the notebook: “Like what Zheng Pushe said last night. , this month Shu Liniang only went out on the night of the Shangsi Festival, and then went to the silk and satin shop in the West City to cut clothes once. This shop is next to the Fandie Building, called Huanshazhai. Buying brushes and ink in the west market, going to Yuzhen Nuguan Guan to go to the green, going to the ‘Jinyun Waterfall’ in the east market to cut clothes, and going to these Hu restaurants to eat Hu food, these are the favorite places of Chang’an ladies. where-”

“Jinyun Waterfall?” Lin Chengyou’s eyes were fixed on that row of records.

Little Jiang also cut clothes in this shop.

He handed the notebook back to Yan Sizhi, got on his horse and said, “Let’s go, go to Dongshi first.”

Halfway through the road, a small cart passed by. Lin Chengyou didn’t care, and passed the horse and the cart. , suddenly felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously restrained the reins.

Yan Sizhi was busy and also reined in his horse: “What’s wrong?”

Lin Chengyou looked back at the end of the alley, and if he read it correctly, the man on the horse was Du Shaotang.

Du Shaotang rode his horse and accompanied the cart. It was estimated that the female family members of the Du family were sitting in the cart. This was normal, but the cart next to Du Shaotang belonged to the uncle.

How could the female family members of the Du family sit in the emperor’s uncle’s carriage?

Yan Sizhi followed and nodded, “It seems to be the chariot of the Prince of Chun’an.”

Lin Chengyou shook the reins and continued to drive the horse towards Dongshi, but he couldn’t help thinking, the Du family’s door was very precious, Du Yuzhi and Uncle Huang were hardly acquaintances, so how could the daughters of the Du family get on Uncle Huang’s carriage.

By the way, Teng Yuyi said yesterday that Du Tinglan was going to stay at Dayin Temple for one night, and this calf happened to be coming from the direction of Dayin Temple. If Du Shaotang and her mother went to visit Teng Yuyi at Dali Temple today, it would be logical to take Du Tinglan back to the house. .

But where did the Du family’s own calf go? broken?

Uncle Huang has always bowed to the corporal, and happened to see it, and it is understandable to take the initiative to let the cart out.

The question is why the Du family is willing to accept this kindness.

What’s even more strange is that her aunt’s car broke down. Why didn’t Teng Yuyi let Duanfu get a car for her aunt? She also felt that she could accept Uncle Huang’s kindness?

Suddenly I thought that Teng Yuyi was in a hurry to get Xiaoya bath soup at Ledao Villa that night. Teng Yuyi was stealing from him, but when he found the emperor’s uncle, he asked his uncle to ask for it directly.

Did Teng Yuyi have long known that the uncle had a modest temperament, so he even dared to mention the unreasonable request of “begging for bath soup” in person.

After thinking about it at the gate of Dongshi, Lin Chengyou dismounted to find out where the “Jinyun Waterfall” was, and went straight in with Yan Si.

After walking a few steps side by side, I heard Yan Sizhi say: “Speaking of the Prince of Chun’an, last year, a relative of mine from Minshan got drunk and accidentally bumped into His Royal Highness’s carriage while walking around. My relatives heard that the person in the car was His Royal Highness, and was so frightened that they lost their souls. How could I know that His Royal Highness only asked my relative to help me to the side of the road, and drove away without saying a word. The alley was extremely remote at that time. , His Royal Highness is still so considerate of others, it can be seen that in private, his morals are always good.”

After speaking, he laughed: “I heard a few ladies say that the little lady who loves His Royal Highness in Chang’an City is unknown, and in the future I don’t know which lady would be lucky enough to marry His Royal Highness.”

Lin Chengyou thought about it for a while, then raised his head and asked, “Why does a little lady usually fall in love with a certain prince?”

Yan Sizhi said, “There are many, such as If you like the talent of a certain Langjun, or the character of the Langjun, there are also people who look at the family, or the looks. If the family and the character are the same, then the looks are the looks.”

Appearance.

Lin Chengyou squinted at Yan Si, and soon looked straight ahead again and said, “Then—according to Yan Si’s direct look, who will have a better relationship with Uncle Huang?”
