The Reborn Wife Returns

Chapter 140
Gong Qinglan stumbled to her feet, leaned over and was about to jump down the slope.

Zhao Mo quickly drew out the scabbard, stood in front of her, and stopped her, saying: "Girl, don't commit suicide easily. If the gangster escaped just now, we still have time to chase."

"I, I don't know, I was kidnapped by a black carriage..." Gong Qingya lowered the corners of her eyes, hiding the fleeting joy in her eyes.What he was waiting for was his words, when someone caught up with the black flat-topped carriage in front, Qi Jingfeng would never want to get rid of her in this life!A frivolous woman should be responsible for her.If he is not willing, the person in the carriage will definitely ask him to give her her name!

Seeing that she was not as excited as before, Zhao Mo went downhill to report to the general.Stepping on an object under his feet, he raised his feet, and under his feet was a piece of suet jade, with a maple leaf engraved on the front and a Chinese character Jing in italics in the middle.Looking at the jade pendant, the Qi family totem is on the back.

With a sinking heart, Zhao Mo quickened his pace, but did not see the glint of success flashing in Gong Qingya's eyes.

"General, there was a girl on the hillside who was belittled, and my subordinate found a jade pendant in the grass." Zhao Mo handed the jade pendant in.

Shen Changhong rubbed the warm and delicate jade pendant in his hand, pondered for a moment, then stepped out of the carriage himself: "Zhao Bing, go ahead and chase the criminals." With his hands behind his back, he went up the hillside.

Is this meddling?

Zhao Mo didn't dare to delay, and immediately followed.

Gong Qingya looked at the person who was about forty years old, with a cold face and handsome features. He was dressed in a black brocade robe with golden piping, exuding a cold and majestic aura.

Standing there casually gives people a strong sense of oppression.

Gong Qingya was so frightened that she forgot to cry, and stared blankly at the handsome and unconfused man. Although she was the same age as her father, he didn't look old at all.Mature and stable than younger men, full of vicissitudes.Even more charming!

Shen Changhong's eyes froze, and the oppressive coldness approached Gong Qingya.

Gong Qingya's whole body trembled, the strong evil spirit made her limbs feel cold, and she suddenly realized who she was looking at!Kneeling on the ground in fear and burying her head in her chest, she was afraid that if she took another look, she would be exposed.

Shen Changhong was born in a poor family, and he went to Beijing to be admitted to the champion of martial arts in one fell swoop, and was favored by the daughter of the nobleman of the previous dynasty, and his status rose with the tide.After the fall of the previous dynasty, he went to the border.From a pioneer, he climbed to the current position of a first-rank general.But she is still unmarried!
The reason for this is unknown to outsiders.It was rumored that General Shen's beloved woman died of illness, and he would not marry for the rest of his life.The most hated men who tarnish a woman's innocence but are unwilling to take responsibility.

It was precisely because of this that Gong Qingya gave it a go!
"Qi Jingfeng?" Shen Changhong uttered a few words in a low voice, which was somewhat difficult to understand.

Gong Qingya trembled all over, and sobbed: "My little girl doesn't know... I implore the adults to make decisions for my little girl..."

Shen Changhong didn't speak anymore.

In less than a moment, someone intercepted a black flat-topped carriage.Gong Qingya was ecstatic in her heart, but when she saw the person coming down from the curtain, her whole body was shocked, and her eyes widened like a ghost.

Gong Qinglan helped Hongyu's hand down, seeing the shock in Gong Qingya's eyes from a distance, a sneer twitched at the corner of her mouth.Walking up the hill, he said in surprise, "Sister, why is it you? Just now the guards said that there was an accident with a girl here, and the gangster was sitting in a black carriage. I was weird in my heart, but I couldn't force myself to walk, so I followed the guards Come here, I never thought it was you!" Gong Qinglan asked with concern, "Have you found any criminals?"

"Sister, I didn't find it, but I did find my brother-in-law's personal jade pendant..." Gong Qingya said with tears rolling down her face, "My sister has no face to live on. She has lost her innocence. She just lived and humiliated the lintel of the Gong family." Gong Qingya said. , as if all the strength had been pulled from his body, he was limp on the ground, and there was no desire to survive in his empty eyes.

At this time, a girl who was sweating profusely and was in a mess came over, hugged Gong Qingya and cried loudly, "Miss, miss, what's wrong with you?"

"Qin'er..." Gong Qingya called out, and the master and servant hugged each other and cried.

Shen Changhong looked at Gong Qinglan's slender back and listened to the conversation between the two sisters. He knew that this woman was Qi Jingfeng's wife, so she was Gong Qinglan, the eldest lady of the Gong family, and the woman whose innocence was tainted was Gong Qingya, the third lady of the Gong family.

"It's so late, Mrs. Qi is going into the city in a carriage?" Zhao Mo sensed the problem from a few words.Qi Jingfeng's jade pendant fell on the scene of the incident, and the victim accused the person who belittled her to leave in a black flat-topped carriage.And what they intercepted was exactly what Gong Qingya described, but there was no suspect inside, but the suspect's wife.Could it be to cover up for the suspect?

"Not far ahead is the Zhuangzi I married as a dowry. I picked a few baskets of grapes and never brought them home. Today I went to pick grapes to make wine, but the carriage broke down. After it is repaired, it is already time." Gong Qinglan said slowly. He replied slowly, his eyes swept over Shen Changhong lightly, but he remained still, looking over in a daze.

Shen Changhong looked at Gong Qinglan's appearance, and his whole body was also tense and stiff like a lightning strike.

Gong Qinglan returned to normal in just a moment, and said worriedly: "I think the gangster will definitely not leave in a carriage when he sees someone coming, and he will definitely meet this lord at the bottom of the slope. Maybe he hid here behind the mountain Please, sir, send someone to look for it." After a pause, Gong Qinglan looked at Shen Changhong and said, "My lord, can you show me the jade pendant?"

"Naturally." Shen Changhong handed the jade pendant to Gong Qinglan.

Gong Qinglan looked at the jade pendant and said in surprise: "Isn't this jade pendant the one I lost yesterday?"

"Sister, my sister didn't want to marry into the Qi family. My brother-in-law treated me like this... I never wanted him to be responsible. You don't want me to marry into the Qi family, so don't slander me like this!" Gong Qingya's face was miserable , A tearful defense.

Zhao Mo glanced at Gong Qinglan and felt that she really shouldn't have said that.Her husband did such a nasty thing, instead of seeking justice for her sister, she argued sophistry, implying that her sister stole the jade pendant and framed Qi Jingfeng.If it was a false accusation, how would the traces on Gong Qingya be explained?

"Sister, when did I slander you? I lost the jade pendant yesterday, so I reported it to the police. I was afraid that someone would use this personal item to do something that violated the law and plant it on your husband. I can't tell with ten mouths." After a pause, Gong Qinglan glanced at Shen Changhong and said: "The jade pendant was lost together with a jasper beauty bracelet. It is precisely because of the special value of this bracelet that I specifically told the magistrate that it was given by Wei Taifei." The meeting gift is extremely precious, let him look for it carefully for me."

Hearing this, the blood on Gong Qingya's face disappeared, and she vaguely understood that she, the setter, fell into the trap set by the prey!

"You're lying!" Gong Qingya suddenly raised her voice, and begged Shen Changhong on her knees: "My lord, it's not like this. When the little girl was being treated lightly, she faintly noticed it, but she couldn't tell it was her brother-in-law. I'm afraid that if there is no evidence to tell, it will hurt the sister's friendship. But now... my sister poured all the dirty water on me for my brother-in-law, and I couldn't help but defend myself. Although my sister is a married daughter of the Gong family, it is just like pouring water, and it is right to protect my husband's family. But I am the daughter of the Gong family, even if I die, I definitely cannot allow anyone to tarnish the reputation of the Gong family."
