The day I took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to sneak out of the palace

A cup of tea with smoke on a dimpled wooden table.

The old village chief's house was even more dilapidated than the house where Li Rongqian lived.

Although the tea leaves are not as fragrant as the ones prepared in the palace, they are already the best. Li Rongqian took a symbolic sip of water and said, "Please elaborate on Yunniang's matter."

The old village chief's sigh was stuck in his throat, and he glanced at the white-haired old woman next to him through the dimly lit candle, and said, "It's not easy to say it is simple."

"Yunniang, we all think she's a nice person, but it's a pity that as soon as her husband left, gossip started to appear."

Li Rongqian half lowered his eyes, and Hu Wuming stood behind him like a protector, half rolled his eyes and yawned.

"Yun Niang's appearance is not delicate, but she is also very good. We don't know when this rumor spread, and she didn't care about it, so she didn't take it seriously until the second fish and a group of dogs..."

The old village chief stopped talking and shook his head, as if he was thinking about how to say it, but he didn't know how to say it.

"After Yunniang's death, this rumor has never been broken again. Yu Laoer's wife is a ruthless master. She originally thought that Yu Laoer was not pleasing to the eye. When Yunniang's incident happened, she cried and beat every day. , every time Yu Lao Er appears, he will definitely have a bruised nose and a swollen face."

Hu Wuming rolled his eyes again and said, "You deserve it!"

The old lady sat silently, and Hu Wuming's words "serve it" came to her ears, causing her to tremble, and then said: "it deserves it! Yunniang was pregnant at that time, these bastards still... ...Yes... Yunniang will die with peace in her eyes!"

After a burst of tears, Li Rongqian sighed inaudibly, and then said: "After Yunniang died, did the body look different?"

The two old men calmed down, looked at each other, nodded, and said, "After we arrived at Yunniang's house, Yu Lao Er and the others had already run away, and only the crazy woman was guarding her body, squatting beside her body in a daze."

"Except for the bruises on the corpse, the back of her neck..." the old lady turned her body halfway with difficulty, and pointed to the back of her neck, "There are a lot of little red spots here, and we didn't care. I wonder if adults think it's important?"

Li Rongqian's brows gradually frowned, the only useful thing among these nonsense was probably those little red dots, after all these people were frightened to death, so it doesn't matter what is different about the corpses.

"A few days after Yunniang's body was buried, Lao Guo died too. His mother-in-law got angry today and dug Yunniang's grave with a shovel. When the museum was opened, no one was there, so it was true." Terrified, we rolled and crawled back to the village, we felt something was wrong, so we bothered you sir."

Hu Wuming smacked his lips and said, "Isn't it quite courageous! How can you be afraid when you can't see the corpse? The moon is dark and the wind is high, so you didn't shake when digging?"

"Forget it, let's go back first, there will be no important clues for a while, let's look for Yunniang's body, maybe we can find it..." Li Rongqian didn't say the whole thing, how can he be sure that the body can be found as soon as he finds it? Looking for it?

"What are you doing?! I want to go in!"

"No!"

"No? Hehe, I still don't believe I can't get in!"

There was a sudden noise outside, even Yan An, who had always been quiet, couldn't help shouting.

"Bang dang..."

The broken door was pushed open, and a short and fat woman rushed in angrily with a rolling pin in her hand, with one hand on her waist, and said, "Which one is Li Rongqian?"

Yan An stepped forward with a black face, making a knife shape with his hand, Li Rongqian shook his head, Yan An immediately stepped back.

"Yu Er Er's wife? What are you doing? You're so unruly!" The old village chief's occasional roar caused a severe cough, and his hunched waist became more and more bent, coughing very hard, and seemed to be a little out of breath.

"Mr. Li, I don't know how to be a widow, and I didn't manage my family's murderer! But Yunniang, I can provide some clues. To be honest, I didn't want to care about it. The dead ghost made a mistake. It's not nice to say Yes, I'm not his mother, why bother to follow behind to be angry! But my mother married him and called him Mr. Li a few times, I think Mr. Li might be willing to listen to what I say."

Yu Laoer's wife just held a rolling pin in one hand and akimbo in the other. Although she was short and fat, she was imposing and firm in her tone. Li Rongqian nodded and said, "Okay."

Hu Wuming sat on a rickety chair, closed his eyes, and quietly listened to the woman's words.
