Ning Chen loves his wife

Chapter 121 A head

Qiao Mu looked at Zhuo Ziao's distorted face because of anger, lowered his head, and stood silently aside.

Zhuo Ziao shoots at Qiao Mu fiercely. "Continue to pass on the young master's words. As long as you see Qiu Er showing his head in the capital, whoever cuts him into a stick and puts him in an urn will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"

"Yes!" Qiao Mu turned and went down.

The police in Beijing arrested people who spread rumors everywhere, even if they got together to discuss, once they were reported to the government and learned about it, they were sent to prison immediately.So far, no one dared to spread the rumor that Zhuo Nan was the queen mother's illegitimate daughter.

That night, Liuying Water Pavilion suddenly let out a shrill scream, hovering in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time, and instantly awakened all the sleeping people.

Zhuo Nan sat up instantly.

Qing Dai, who was watching the night on the beauty's bed outside, immediately put on her clothes, trotted into the room, and saw Zhuo Nan sitting on the edge of the bed with the gauze curtain aside.

"Miss."

Zhuo Nan frowned slightly.The scream came from the direction of Liuying Water Pavilion, and it sounded like Zhuo Ziao's scream. "Wait for me to get dressed."

"Yes." Qing Dai immediately stepped forward to help Zhuo Nan get dressed.Knowing that Zhuo Nan was awakened by the screams, he wanted to find out.

Zhuo Nan was half dressed when Xin Yi walked in from the outside and saluted Zhuo Nan. "Miss." She stepped forward and helped Zhuo Nan get dressed together with Qing Dai.

Zhuo Nan got dressed and sat in front of the dressing table, and Xin Yi helped her comb her hair.She ordered, "Simple." She was in a hurry and wanted to know what happened to the Liuying Water Pavilion, and Zhuo Ziao was so startled that he let out such a shrill scream in the middle of the night.

"Yes." Xin Yi quickly helped Zhuo Nan pull up a simple bun.

Zhuo Nan stood up and went to the outside room, and found that Lian Luokui and Qian Momo were all guarding outside, each of them was awakened by the screams.

Luo Kui took a step forward. "Miss, the screams seem to be coming from the direction of Liuying Water Pavilion. It may be unsafe for you to rush there at night."

Zhuo Nan glanced coldly at Luo Kui, saw her lower her head, glanced at the crowd out of the corner of her eye, and ordered, "Everyone follow." Since they all want to watch the fun, let them do it.

Qing Dai and Bai Wei walked in the front with lanterns to illuminate the road, Zhuo Nan and others followed behind.

Walking halfway, they met Zhuo Ran and Zhuo Qing with a group of maids.

"Sister Nan, you were also woken up by the screaming?" Zhuo Ran took the initiative to greet her.Seeing that Zhuo Nan ignored her, he walked past her and followed her pretending not to care.He continued indignantly; "It's the middle of the night, and I don't know who is screaming, disturbing the quietness of this lady. If you catch this person, you will definitely be severely punished!"

Everyone rushed to the Liuying Water Pavilion, just as they stepped in, they bumped into a young servant who behaved strangely, holding something wrapped in a black cloth with a terrified expression.He even forgot to greet them and left in a hurry.

Just as Zhuo Ran was about to scold the servant, the prime minister walked over with Li Shi.

The prime minister glanced at Zhuo Nan and the others, and said solemnly without anger, "What are you all doing here? Go back!"

Zhuo Ran and Zhuo Qing immediately bowed their heads obediently.They said in unison; "Yes, Father."

Zhuo Nan looked coldly at the back of the prime minister and Mrs. Li as they left.

The butler, who was a step behind, walked up to the three of them and saluted them.

Zhuo Ran couldn't wait to ask; "Housekeeper, what happened?"

Zhuo Qing agreed. "That's right, butler, why did someone make such a miserable scream at midnight? It's so weird."

Zhuo Nan also looked at the butler coldly, waiting for his answer.

The butler scanned the three of them, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I dare not hide it from you ladies, it was the eldest son who screamed just now."

"Brother?" Zhuo Qing frowned.

Zhuo Ran hurriedly asked. "What happened, brother?"

But the housekeeper looked puzzled; "Miss, don't ask any more, it's not because the slaves didn't tell you, it's because I'm worried that if you find out, you won't be able to sleep tonight. Listen to the master, and you should hurry back to your respective courtyards to rest. go."

The butler leaves.

Zhuo Ran stamped her feet angrily. "Secretly, I don't want Miss Ben to know, but Miss Ben wants to know!" Grabbing Zhuo Qing and walking inside, she saw Zhuo Nan was already at the front.

Zhuo Nan stepped into the inner courtyard and casually pointed to a maidservant in the Liuying Water Pavilion. "You tell Miss Ben, what happened?"

Zhuo Ran and Zhuo Qing also stepped up and walked over at this time.

The little servant girl was pale and trembling all over.Looking at himself surrounded by three young ladies with blank eyes, he suddenly burst into tears and burst into tears.

Zhuo Ran and Zhuo Qing were startled when she suddenly burst into tears.

Zhuo Ran wanted to scold her, but found that she couldn't help crying, and she was obviously terrified and pitiful.

Zhuo Nan frowned, seeing Qiao Mu walking out of the side room.

Qiao Mu caught sight of the weeping little maid, and before she approached, she snapped, "Shut up! Do you want to be shot by the eldest son?!"

The little servant girl's face changed in shock, and she folded her hands to cover her mouth desperately, but because she was too frightened, she couldn't stop all of a sudden.

Qiao Mu's eyes darkened, and he yelled, "Get off!"

The little servant girl covered her mouth as if relieved, and retreated hastily.

Only then did Qiao Mu approach Zhuo Nan and the others to greet them. "Ladies and gentlemen, it is already midnight, please go back to the hospital and rest."

Zhuo Ran was arrogant, and asked domineeringly; "Tell me what happened, and I will go back to rest."

Zhuo Qing also raised her eyebrows in doubt. "Aren't you serving elder brother personally? How did you come out from the side room?"

Qiao Mu lowered his head and replied, "Young Master woke up from a dream and found a head on the bed with him. He abandoned the main room and moved to the side room."

The real situation was that Zhuo Ziao slept until midnight when he was suddenly awakened by a gust of cold wind.The moment he opened his eyes, he stared at a pair of dead eyes, leaving only a head with disheveled hair. He was so frightened that he screamed terribly.The main room naturally didn't dare to sleep, and ran to the side room.

"What? A head?!" Still sharing the same bed?Zhuo Ran asked involuntarily.

Qiao Mu looked at Zhuo Ran. "Reporting to Miss Ran, the master has asked the boy in the mansion to take that head to the Yamen to report to the officials." But the corner of his eyes was full of fear, and he glanced over Zhuo Nan's body vaguely.

Hearing this, Zhuo Ran suddenly recalled that when she entered the Liuying Water Pavilion just now, she bumped into a young servant who was behaving strangely, carrying something in his hand, passing in front of them.

Looking back now, the thing wrapped in black cloth in the boy's hand was a head!His face suddenly turned pale!

Zhuo Qing's face also turned pale, but she still asked calmly; "Who died? Why did only one head remain, and it suddenly appeared on elder brother's bed?"

Qiao Mu lowered his head and said, "I don't know, Miss Qing please forgive me."

Zhuo Nan listened quietly, turned around, and left with Qian Momo and others.
