Chapter 124 The Dead in Wedding Clothes

Zhou Xuan opened his eyes in surprise, "Do you remember this? How old were you when I got married?"

"Sister, do you want me to get married with a lot of worries?"

Zhou Xuan was silent for a moment, "Something did happen at home..."

Seeing Zhou Zhao and Zhou Wan's expressions tightening at the same time, Zhou Xuan waved his hand hurriedly, "Don't worry."

As she spoke, she glanced sharply at the maid who had followed, and then glanced at Chu Yi who was busy on the side. Until there were only three sisters left in the courtyard, Zhou Xuan just strode toward Zhou Zhao's house. Go.

She twists and turns with some difficulty, kicking a skull for a while, and accidentally hitting a machete for a while, making a clanging sound.

When he arrived at Zhou Zhao's table, he sat down with something to eat.

"It's a good thing that I've lost some money recently, otherwise I wouldn't be able to squeeze through your gap."

Zhou Xuan rarely joked, but neither Zhou Zhao nor Zhou Wan laughed, but stared at her with burning eyes.

Zhou Xuan was helpless, "I'll just say it. It's not that I didn't want to tell you before. It's really a matter of a woman's reputation, and I can't say it casually."

"A few years ago, my mother-in-law brought her natal niece Bao Chunxi, your brother-in-law's direct cousin, to Chang'an, hoping to arrange a marriage for her."

When he heard the word cousin, Zhou Zhao immediately felt a sudden change in his heart, remembering that Zhou Xuan had been married for many years without any children.

Seeing Zhou Zhao and Zhou Wan's faces changing at the same time, Zhou Xuan stretched out his hand and patted their heads gently, "As you may think, on the surface they are talking about marriage, but in fact they want your brother-in-law to marry that Bao Chunpo and become Mrs. Ru." .

But who is your sister? I even dare to lift my grandma’s table. How can I stand such arrogance? There was a commotion in this family! ”

Zhou Wan stood up suddenly and said, "Brother-in-law, I dare to betray you!"

Zhou Xuan was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly, "He didn't. When he married me, he made a promise to me that he would be the only one in his life. Now he has kept his promise and has not asked Yingchun to come in. .

Your brother-in-law doesn't have any great abilities, he's just soft-spoken and has a good temper. I'm too tough-tempered, and I'll beat up anyone I go to. That's why he's been following me for so many years. We have been married for so many years and we have never even blushed. ”

Zhou Xuan said, looking a little lonely.

"Because both of us were against it, my mother-in-law didn't mention it anymore and asked me to help Bao Chunxiang visit her. It was like this in early June without incident. I remember that day was the third day of June. In the evening At that time, someone put up river lanterns in Dongshui.”

"Your brother-in-law arranged for Bao Chunpo to meet his colleagues. Somehow that day, it was crowded with people. When I came to my senses, your brother-in-law and I were separated, and Bao Chunpo was the only one left. She took out a hosta, Said it belonged to her eldest sister Bao Chunfang.”

"I also have one of that hosta. It was given to me by your brother-in-law when he first told me that he liked me. It is exactly the same as the one in Bao Chunxi's hand."

When Zhou Wan heard this, she was already furious, "What a shameless person! Did she say that her brother-in-law once liked her sister! I have heard this trick eight hundred times!"

Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly, "I actually know Bao Chunfang, your brother-in-law told me. She was three years older than your brother-in-law, and she died before she could grow up. When your brother-in-law first fell in love, he was indeed fond of her. .”

Zhou Xuan said and shook his head, "I actually don't care about this. After all, I have had people I liked before."

Now it was Zhou Zhao and Zhou Wan's turn to open their mouths!

This was the first time the two of them knew about this! Zhou Xuan did not continue, but continued, "I wasn't angry at the time, but Bao Chunxuan took out another small portrait, and there was a girl drawn on it, who was 70% similar to me, especially her expression, appearance and appearance. Just by looking at the portrait, we all know that she has a bad temper.

I became angry at that time, no matter whether the portrait was real Bao Chunfang or she painted it deliberately to anger me.

Anyway, I couldn't stand this bitch jumping around in front of my eyes, so I gave her a big ear-scratcher! Bao Chunpo cried and ran away, and did not return all night! ”

Zhou Zhao originally wanted to say it was a good fight, but when he heard that he hadn't returned home all night, he had a bad premonition.

Recalling what Zhou Xuan said before about Qingyu, he said seriously, "Did she meet a flower picker?"

Zhou Xuan nodded heavily, "That's right. She didn't come back all night. I was so angry that I didn't hold her back. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the crowd. She didn't come back until the next day."


"She had scars all over her body. She changed her clothes and came back from Jiaomen. She said that after she was beaten by me, she left Dongshui in tears and walked home indiscriminately. When she was walking through a small alley, she was attacked from behind. He was knocked unconscious. When he woke up again, his body was covered with injuries and he was lying on the same spot with a different set of clothes.”

Although Zhou Xuan didn't say it, Zhou Zhao could guess that Bao Chunpo might not have hated Zhou Xuan because of this.

Although Zhou Xuan is usually careless, he is the softest person among the three sisters.

"Sister, don't blame yourself. It was Bao Chunxu who committed the crime first. Although she is pitiful, it is not your responsibility. You don't need to blame yourself." Zhou Wan took Zhou Xuan's hand, "No wonder June When you returned home, you lost a lot of money. At that time, you lied to us and said it was a bitter summer. "

Please...you...collect_6_9_书_吧 (六//九//书//吧)

Zhou Xuan was silent for a moment and did not respond to Zhou Wan's words. How could she not blame herself?

A good girl, when she encountered something like this, it was like a heavy stone weighing on her heart.

"Bao Chunpo feels that I have harmed her. My mother-in-law is bringing up the old issues now and wants your brother-in-law to accept her as compensation."

Zhou Xuan said, and suddenly laughed bitterly, "Speaking of it, this matter is really full of twists and turns. After the decree of Second Sister that you want to marry Dai Wang came down, my mother-in-law's attitude began to change. When Third Sister, you and Chang Ying come back, not only It was her, even Bao Chunpo never mentioned this matter.

Until yesterday... Bao Chunxi did not return home all night again...

No one has come back yet!

I want to go to Tingwei Temple to report the crime, or go to the Beijun Army to look for Chang Ying and ask him to help find the person. But my mother-in-law stopped me and said that it was related to Chunpo's reputation. If this matter got too big, she would be really shameless in Chang'an City! ”

Zhou Zhao frowned, "The Daqi Dynasty did not value women's chastity. Widows can be concubines. How important is a good reputation? I will go find Changying now."

She said and stood up. At this moment, Su Changying's familiar voice came from the door.

"Lord Xiao Zhou, the Northern Army discovered a female corpse during a patrol. I have sent someone to call Ah Huang. You go over and take a look. The situation is quite strange."

Zhou Xuan's face changed drastically, and her lips trembled slightly, "I want to go with you! Is she wearing a moon-white dress, looking particularly plain, and has a small red mole at the corner of her mouth?"

Su Changying raised his hands in panic. Although he must have stayed in the Zhou Mansion from time to time, he couldn't remember what happened in the past. Now, in his opinion, this was indeed the first time he came back.

He only thought about looking for Zhou Zhao because of a case, but he didn't expect to run into Zhou Zhao's sisters.

Su Changying hesitated for a moment and called, "Eldest sister, second sister."

After speaking, he shook his head again and answered Zhou Xuan's question.

"There is indeed a small red mole at the corner of the mouth. However, the deceased was wearing a brand new wedding dress and his head was covered with a white mourning cloth."
