Looking for another good match, Hou Menjiaojiao turns around and marries a villain

Mao You's body has never been found. He seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, with no one alive or dead.

Because something happened, Xie Chunchao lost his mood and continued to practice archery in Yanshan. Everyone packed up and prepared to go down the mountain.

Xie Chunchao and Lin Jingrong were riding in the same carriage. She held her head and thought about Mao You. She didn't know if Mao You's death was related to the man in black she saw last night.

If there is……

Xie Chunchao raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Jingrong. Was he trying to protect her?

Lin Jingrong seemed to notice Xie Chunchao's gaze. Her thin, pale lips curled up into a smile, and her faint voice sounded like a clear spring in the mountains, "Why are you looking at me again?"

Perhaps Xie Chunchao and Lin Jingrong were familiar with each other. This time she was not embarrassed about being caught. Instead, she met his gaze with warm eyes and said, "Jingrong, where were you in Zhuangzi before?"

"What?" Lin Jingrong closed the book and asked with a smile, "Is Chun Chao interested in Zhuangzi, where I lived?"

"Yes." Xie Chunchao said, "I want to see the place where you grew up."

There was also a hint of nostalgia in Lin Jingrong's eyes, "Although the village is not big or luxurious, it has a unique pastoral style, and the fruits, vegetables, and poultry are all the freshest."

"It's very secluded there, and there may not be any passers-by for ten days and a half."

"Only the farmers near Zhuangzi occasionally come to the Zhuangzi to chat with the people in the Zhuangzi."

Xie Chunchao: "Then where do all your books come from?"

In this era, books are such precious things.

Although Lin Jingrong's father was the censor of the dynasty, he was not favored. And with a stepmother like Wang, how much money could he have?

Lin Jingrong replied calmly, "When I was a child, my grandma would go to the town to buy my books for me. Later, when I was older, Mingqiu would buy them for me."

Xie Chunchao: "After hearing what you said, I want to go to the Zhuangzi where you lived."

"Although I have many Zhuangzis under my name, I rarely live there. Most of the time, Yun Xie goes to look after me."

Lin Jingrong smiled and said, "Just because you heard what I said, you think the countryside is all beautiful, but that's not necessarily the case."

"Whenever it rains, the room always feels damp. If it rains in summer, the room will be as hot and humid as a steamer."

"Not to mention the annoying snakes and insects."

"Sometimes, when you are drinking tea in the courtyard, a flower snake suddenly falls on top of your head, and the bugs in the room are infested and regenerated, again and again, endlessly."

"And in winter, the inside of the house is even colder than the outside, and you can't live without a fire for a moment. If the snow at the door is not cleared frequently, you won't even be able to open the door the next day."

Xie Chunchao felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard it. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was most afraid of insects.

She shivered with fear just thinking about a bug suddenly appearing on her bed at night, but she still pretended to be calm and interested and said, "It sounds exciting and fun."

"Where is Zhuangzi? Why don't we go see it another day?"

Xie Chunchao became suspicious of Lin Jingrong, so the first place he looked at was naturally Zhuangzi, where Lin Jingrong lived before.

But for some reason, although Xie Chunchao felt that Lin Jingrong was mysterious and seemed to be hiding something, he was very sure that Lin Jingrong had no ill intentions towards her.

Sometimes she would laugh at herself silently in her heart, hadn't she suffered enough from the losses she had suffered in the past? Want to eat again?

"Zhuangzi is not far from Shanngling." Lin Jingrong said, "It's just that not long after I left, Zhuangzi caught fire. I heard that many places were burned down. I'm afraid there won't be anything left if I go now."

"It doesn't matter." Xie Chunchao said, "You have been away for so long. Even if all the fires are burned out, everything that needs to be built is almost done now, so just go out and relax."

Xie Chunchao said this, directly lifted the curtain of the car and said, "Mingqiu, go and show the driver the way. Let's go to Zhuangzi where your young master used to live."

After Xie Chunchao finished speaking, he directly lowered the car curtain without caring about Mingqiu's reaction.

If Lin Jingrong really had murderous intentions towards her, he would definitely not miss this rare opportunity.

But after much thought, she couldn't figure out Lin Jingrong's purpose of killing her.

If he covets glory and wealth, he should keep her. As long as she is alive, she will bring endless benefits to him.

If he was greedy for the salary of a high-ranking official, Lin Jingrong wouldn't have to refuse the emperor's uncle's intention to grant him an official position last time when he was in the palace.

She leaned against the wall of the car and fell asleep, hoping that this time she could find the secret that Lin Jingrong had hidden in the village.

As for the person behind her life...

She sneered in her heart. Before going down the mountain this time, she had asked Yun Xie to send a message back to her home. She would ask her father to mobilize people to protect her in secret. If the other party dared to come, then they would never come back!

The carriage descended from Yanshan Mountain and headed slowly in the opposite direction to Shanngling.

Yun Xie suddenly tapped the wall of the car and said, "Princess, there is a letter from the mansion."

Xie Chunchao received the letter, which said something about Mao You. After receiving the letter from her, the people in the government began to investigate Mao You's private property, and indeed found a lot of gold and silver treasures in his home.

Its value is far beyond what one of his little servants can possess. They also learned from a friend of Mao You that he had seen Mao You and a girl wearing a veil sneaking around. chat.

It's just that it was dark and he couldn't see the girl clearly. As for the conversation, they were far apart and the voice was low, so he didn't hear it.

Although there was not much useful information, this letter completely confirmed Xie Chunchao's suspicion that Mao You was really the traitor who betrayed her whereabouts.

So who did he sell to?

Bai Qiusheng?

No, if it was really Bai Qiusheng who did it, there was no need for him to come forward and have a showdown with her. He could have pretended not to know anything and secretly killed her behind her back.

If not Bai Qiusheng, who else could it be?

Xie Chunchao thought for a while but couldn't figure it out. Who else hated her so much that he would kill her?

Could it be Bai Zhi and Ning Heng?

But she and Ning Heng had no conflict of interest. As for Bai Zhi, she was already married to Ning Heng, and she had never bothered Ning Heng. Why would Bai Zhi seek trouble and kill her?

Besides, as a newly recognized princess, is she really capable of planning this seamless assassination?

If the tiger hadn't been killed by an unknown master, she might have died that day.

And Mao You...if he hadn't disappeared suddenly, she wouldn't have been able to discover his betrayal.

She slowly folded the letter and thought to herself that after she returned, she would clean up the people in the house and sell out all those who had ulterior motives.

Lin Jingrong asked: "What was written in the letter?"

Xie Chunchao: "It is said that a large amount of treasure was found in Mao You's private residence."

Lin Jingrong said: "It seems that Mao You really betrayed us."

Xie Chunchao thought for a while, handed the letter to Lin Jingrong, stared at him without blinking, and asked, "Who would bribe Mao You to harm me?"
