151 Festival

Azhu nodded.

"Later, the maid followed the woman and saw her enter the Xia Mansion through the back door with her own eyes."

Xu Mingyi was sitting in the hall. After listening to what Ah Zhu said, he felt a little funny for no reason.

It turns out that he is really from the Xia family.

Such a clumsy method, like children playing around, is not at all like the work of the Xia family.

However, if you really want to think about it carefully, there is still someone in the Xia family who can match the number - Xia Xi.

Thinking of the girl who had no ability but still liked to stir up trouble, Xu Mingyi felt that she should remind Xu Ying to be more careful.

"Girl, Uncle Zhu is here."

Akui came in from outside and reported.

"Let people come in."

Zhu Xiu entered the hall and saluted Xu Mingyi.

"Girl, I have already sent him to the government. It was in the name of the old man. I have already told him everything that needs to be explained. Mr. Ji didn't ask any more questions."

He was talking about the man named Zhou who worked for the Zhan family and called himself a knight.

During this period of time, this man has been imprisoned in Zhuangzi outside the city. He originally thought that the wise and powerful girl planned to take this man for her own use, so he mentioned it yesterday. Unexpectedly, the girl was stunned, and then said...

She forgot about it.

Then, I remembered that there was such a person and the girl told him to send him to the government for treatment, and tell the government the truth about his crimes.

The charges of Zhan Qian and Xia Han have been decided. Such accomplices do not need to be tried in court. Master Ji has already dealt with what should be dealt with, so there is no need to worry about what the other party will say that should not be said. Just wait.

Just behead him for the crime.

But Zhu Xiu thought it was a pity.

After all, that man is good with a knife.

Xu Mingyi didn't feel it was a pity.

She loves talents, but she is not in such a short supply of people right now. She won't comment on the other person's character. She just doesn't want to use someone who has done something to her cousin.

It’s not that you have to be particular about anything, it’s just that if you can be particular, you should be particular about it.

Moreover, the opponent's abilities are just that. It is worth mentioning that he is good at using the crescent knife. However, this characteristic is too easy to remember. It would be uneasy to ask him to kill people.

If he can't kill people, he can't be kept in the house and hired to cut watermelons, right?

When it comes to cutting watermelons and peeling melon seeds, she already has Aoi.

"Is there still no news about Zhan Yunzhu?" Xu Mingyi asked instead.

"My subordinates are incompetent and have not been able to lead anyone to find any useful clues so far."

"Then keep an eye on people on both sides of the river, especially the fishing boats nearby. You still need to pay more attention."

Twenty days had passed, and although the person who accounted for a lot of Yunzhu was probably dead, she still didn't want to give up the search until she saw the body. At least, she would continue to wait and see for a while.

Zhu Xiuying came down.

Immediately he said: "In the past few days, I have heard reports from my people, saying that when I was inquiring about a fishing village fifty miles outside the city, I heard one of the fishermen mention it, and someone also came here and asked about it two days ago.

From what the fisherman described about this matter, it can be roughly confirmed that the person the other party is looking for is also Zhan Yunzhu."

Xu Mingyi thought for a moment after hearing this.

Could it be someone from the Xia family?

But to the Xia family, Zhan Yunzhu has no useable value. If she goes to such great lengths to search and find out just to determine the life and death of such a small person, then she can only say that Xia Tingzhen is quite free at the moment.

.

If not the Xia family, who would it be?

Xu Mingyi could not think of anyone else who would have such a deep entanglement with Zhan Yunzhu.

But somehow, a handsome young face appeared in my mind for no reason.

Could it be Wu Chao?

This guess seemed a bit haphazard, but thinking about the other party's many helpings in these days, Xu Mingyi felt that she still needed to ask - she was not the kind of person who could accept the other party's silent help with peace of mind and pretend to be stupid without asking a question.

people.

Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Wu Chao in more than ten days.

Thinking of his previous promise to invite the other party to Qingfeng Tower for dinner, Xu Mingyi looked at the big bird dozing off under the pillars outside the hall. When he was thinking about giving it a job, he saw a little maid coming in from outside the hall.

Amo bowed and said softly: "Girl, Madam just sent someone to ask, saying that the kitchen is preparing dishes for tomorrow's luncheon. I want to ask girl if there is anything else she wants to eat besides the ones she has every year.

.”

Xu Mingyi was stunned when he heard this.

By the way, she almost forgot, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

When making mooncakes a few days ago, my mother even asked someone to come over and ask her if there was any filling she wanted to eat.

Since it was a festive season, she couldn't go out of her way to ask Wu Chao to come out. He didn't have many days to stay in the capital, and it was rare for him to be reunited with his parents like this. The dinner invitation had to wait until after the festival.



Next day.

At the family banquet in Prince Dingnan's residence in the middle of Beijing, the crown prince Wu Jingming was raising a glass to drink with Wu Chao.

"Since I came to Beijing, this is the first time that our family of three has gathered together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival." Wu Jingming said in a good mood.

"How can it be three people? It must be four people." Mrs. Shizi said with a genuine smile.

Wu Jingming also smiled when he heard this and said, "Isn't A Zhang not here?"

The second son, Wu Ran, was still young and had fewer opportunities to go to Beijing.

He was already very content to have someone by his side to spend the holidays with.

Wu Chao also thought of his younger brothers at home, and said: "Fortunately, the New Year is not far away."

Every New Year's Eve, my father and mother would go back to Ningyang, and it was truly a day for family reunion.

"Yes, A Zhang is not here..." Mrs. Xu smiled and touched the cat on the chair beside her, and said: "When I talk about a family of four, I include our Tianjiao."

The name Tianjiao, the word Tian comes from the generation of the third eye.

If we are a family, our names should be consistent.

As for the word "pepper", pepper is spicy in nature. Her kitten is too soft and might be easily bullied. The name also represents Xu's inner best wishes for the kitten - as a cat, she should be

Only if you have a strong temper can you behave like a cat.

"..." Wu Jingming's smile froze when he heard this. He looked at the white cat squatting on the chair between his wife and himself, and couldn't help but feel a little complicated.

Since the cat came to the house, there has suddenly been a distance between him and his wife.

The distance between a mere cat may not seem that far away, but in fact it is not difficult to see that the wife's heart has completely gone astray.

At first, his wife was far from being so overbearing in front of him, until one night, when he woke up in a daze, he found his wife squatting next to the cat's nest, combing the cat's fur in the dark...

Is this the wife who claims to be as dignified as she is and who never likes these noisy little things?

And when she was smoothing the cat's coat in the middle of the night, was the cat torturing her, or was she torturing the cat?

The atmosphere at that time was awkward to the point of being weird.
