Start with the humble bridegroom

Chapter 192
Meng Xiaowan seldom wears colorful clothes, especially when Zhang Zhe is not at home.

But today she was wearing a bright green peach-petal silk jacket and skirt, and she even wore the golden hairpin that Zhang Zhe gave her as a gift in her hair.

She met the guests in the hall of Guiheyuan.

The guest was a very familiar person, but the troubles brought by her gave Meng Xiaowan some headaches.

The visitor was one of Meng Xiaowan's only two best friends, Song Yinwu and Song Yinwu.

Song Yinwu, who came all the way from Wuling, posed a big problem for Meng Xiaowan as soon as they met.

Song Xiaowu, who was originally Huanghua's daughter, came to see her with a woman's hair in a bun, and refused to sit in the guest seat, insisting on sitting next to Meng Xiaowan.

That's a concubine.

Meng Xiaowan was so angry that her liver hurt, she pointed at her and said angrily.

"If you want to mess around, I'll accompany you to mess around. If you think you want to sit next to me, you're thinking of being my side room. Stand up and make a rule first!"

Song Xiaowu stood up "aggrieved", and was about to continue joking with Meng Xiaowan, but he couldn't hold back and laughed first.

Seeing her return to the guest seat, Meng Xiaowan put down her hand rubbing her forehead.

"When did you arrive?"

"I arrived the day before yesterday. After a day's rest and another day's work, I came to pay my respects to the eldest lady," Song Yinwu said amusedly, while taking out a small white embroidered flower from her sleeve and putting it on her temples.

Meng Xiaowan looked at her plain white body again, and knew that she was wearing mourning for her elder brother.

She couldn't help but have red eyes: "Then you have already been to the grave of your brother and sister-in-law?"

Song Yinwu's eyes were also red: "I've been there, and I heard about the game of chess between brother and Xin." Song Xiaowu smiled while crying, "Now I don't know how to repay you husband and wife. It's a pity that both of you are arrogant, and even if I want to be a concubine, I don't like it."

Meng Xiaowan tilted her head and wiped her tears.

"I'll send you a letter. You'll come here in the spring, but it's winter, so you don't have to worry about getting sick on the way. Now, is there anyone around?"

"I have nothing to worry about. There is a servant girl by my side, who I brought out from the hall, and she is grateful to me. Besides, you also know that I did not come alone. The imperial court transported food from various counties in the south of the Yangtze River to Jiangling, and we A few rented a boat and followed Wuling's grain ship, and the journey was very fast."

Only then did Meng Xiaowan look at her firmly.

"That's all for you, but what kind of thoughts do they have in mind when they come here like this, let's talk about it."

Song Xiaowu wiped away his tears and laughed.

"Sister Wan'er, don't you know what kind of thoughts the three of them have in your heart? Only I, a cheeky person, accepted the four identity certificates. The three of them must return the identity certificates to your family." of."

"If they really still have this thought," Meng Xiaowan sneered, "do you really think I dare not sell them?"

"Yes," Song Xiaowu turned serious, "I'll tell you what they mean, if you allow them to enter the mansion, the eldest lady, they are willing to obey the arrangements in everything. Well, I guess the two of you will not Come on, I'll just say another one."

"That's the deed money. We can't let the Zhang family spend it in vain. The four of us are going to open a stage in Jiangling. At least we can earn back the deed money and return it to your family, so that everyone can live with peace of mind in the future. The eldest lady can't even This is not allowed."

"A show in Jiangling?" Meng Xiaowan immediately shook her head, "You don't know how many relatives and relatives of the emperor are here in Jiangling City. If something happens, no one can help you."

Hearing this, Song Yinwu's face became bitter.

"It's a bad thing. The few of us are not good enough to kill first and then play. The co-authors have already bought a theater, and even the theater cards have been sold. The play will start on the first day of February. I still want to invite the eldest lady and the gentleman to watch it today." drama."

"What do you still call big lady and gentleman!" Meng Xiaowan gave her a gouged look, and couldn't help feeling a headache again.

Not to mention Song Yinwu, but Yuyao, Yuezhao and Xu Niangzi are all stunning.Once he showed his face to others, how could he hold on to a seventh-rank Xuan Yilang the size of a sesame mung bean in his family?
What's more, now that there are a group of sons and phoenixes, if one gets involved, it will be endless trouble.

Hehe, Meng Xiaowan laughed angrily.I'm afraid it's their conspiracy, thinking that she should bring them into the mansion openly, so as not to cause trouble to the Zhang family outside.

"Then tomorrow, tell them to dress up and go meet someone with me."

Meng Xiaowan naturally thought of her teacher, if she had Mrs. Shentu as an endorsement, those sons and phoenixes would not dare to force them to do it.In fact, she has always wanted Mrs. Shentu to see how exciting the play her husband choreographed.

Besides, it's not good for her to tear herself apart with these few, it would be best if Mrs. Shentu would help them detain them, or help them persuade them to take their deeds and leave.

Meng Xiaowan kept Song Xiaowu's meal, and asked Geng Liang to escort him there after dinner.

Ever since those descendants of dragons and phoenixes arrived in Jiangling City, it seemed a bit uneasy.

A while ago, it was widely rumored that the second son of the Luoshan Prince had snatched the top card of the Glaze Cloud Pavilion; it seems that yesterday, because of the dispute between the son of Prince Muyang and the son of Xili, two groups of people had a big fight in the teahouse.

Meng Xiaowan suddenly cursed her husband in a low voice, and Zhang Zhe, who was far away, sneezed seven or eight times without stopping.

"Xinzhi has a cold? I heard that there are many beautiful maidservants and singers in the house, brother, please take it easy," Yue Tang teased Zhang Zhe in a good mood.Wei Po was drinking while a few servants were helping the county lieutenant remove his armor.

Wei Po led the county soldiers to raid Daxi Village, except for a few who slipped through the net, the remnants of the Southern Wu soldiers were completely wiped out.Wei Xianwei's contribution this time is not small, even the remnants of the six families were basically caught by him.

Zhang Zhe rubbed his nose and put down Yue Tang's expressive words.

As expected of being a Jinshi, an essay is really full of flowers.

In Yue Tang's confession, the remnants of the six families colluded with "more than three hundred" remnants of Southern Wu to overthrow Xiushan, but they were strangled to death by everyone in Xiushan.The first contribution is naturally Yue Tang's, the second contribution is Wei Po, and the third is Zhang Zhe who is responsible for guarding the city and catching spies. The newly attached Master Cao also has an additional contribution.

Zhang Zhe looked through the list of people involved in the case again. The 20 or so people are the remnants of the six families, servants and some slaves. They have all been sent to prison, and they will not be able to escape until the order from the camp sixty miles away comes. one knife.

Although Xiushan County is nominally part of Jiangling, it is still newly occupying enemy territory and is under the direct military control of the camp. The procedures for killing rebels are extremely simple.

Zhang Zhe also saw a few names that he arranged to include in the list.

Liu De, Lu Qihan, ..., the former housekeeper of the Zhang family's new house, three of the five heads of the village, and one steward are all on this death list.

It's not that Zhang Zhe is cruel, but that they all violated Zhang Zhe's bottom line.

Liu De, who was sent to Zhuangzi by Zhang Zhe, in order to quickly win back the heart of his new owner, joined hands with these beasts to murder the only grandson of his former owner.The inhuman appearance of a five-year-old child gave Zhang Zhe an uncontrollable killing intent.

Many people in Xiuchuan know that Liu De's original owner is very kind to Liu De!
