Turning the tide in the Red Chamber

Chapter 87 [087] Spring fiber throws into the lake, Jia Rong catches the traitor
Chunxian pursed her lips tightly, unable to open her mouth.

People die for money, and birds die for food. Lin Daiyu doesn't think she has the backbone to keep her mouth shut for the mastermind behind her.
It must be because the mastermind behind the scenes gave her family a lot of money, making her willing to sacrifice her life for another life, and not hesitate to assassinate her in public at the cost of her own life.

Lin Daiyu said coldly:

"Since you refuse to speak up, then I will send you to the government to see if you still speak hard?"

Fear and hesitation flashed in Chunxian's eyes, but she just frowned struggling, and immediately closed her eyes and stretched her brows, as if putting on a posture that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and she was determined not to speak .

Lin Daiyu snorted coldly, and ordered Xueyan to fetch a rope, and together with Zijuan, tied Chunxian's hands behind her back, but without leggings.

"Zijuan, Xueyan, you two take her out first and tie her to a tree, don't let this murderer stand and dirty my land!"

"Yes!"

Zijuan and Xueyan escorted Chunxian out.

After a while, Xueyan came back and reported:

"Girl, we have already tied Chunxian to a willow tree at the gate of the courtyard."

Lin Daiyu turned her head to look at Yuanyang, and said with a smile:

"Sister Yuanyang happens to be here, please accompany me to see the old lady, and report this matter, please send someone to escort Chunxian to the government."

The mandarin duck accompanied him with a smile and said:
"Miss Lin, you're being polite. I'll accompany you to see the old lady."

As soon as she finished speaking, a person rushed in from outside in a panic, but it was Zijuan.

"Miss Lin, it's bad, Chunxian broke free from the rope and jumped into the lake!"

"Why didn't you watch?" Lin Daiyu didn't have time to scold her, and rushed out of the door first.

Now she is equipped with lightness kung fu and body skills, her movements are faster than adult men, and much faster than the three women of Yuanyang, Zijuan and Xueyan.

Lin Daiyu rushed out of the courtyard gate, ran to the lake a dozen steps away, and looked into the lake.

The location near the shore is full of lotus flowers.

The lotus leaves that cover the sky are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers that reflect the sun are red.

This beautiful scenery that was originally pleasing to the eye, now looks eerie and terrifying.

Because under the lotus leaves swaying in the wind, a person was drowned.

A woman who was alive just now!

The lotus leaves stretched into pieces, covering the surface of the lake, and Chunxian couldn't be seen at all.

At this time, mandarin ducks, azaleas and snow geese also ran over.

"Zijuan, where did Chunxian jump from?" Lin Daiyu asked.

Zicuckoo pointed to an uneven lakeshore and replied:
"It was from this position that I wanted to catch her, but I tripped over a rock on the ground and failed to catch her. I saw her jump into the lake."

Lin Daiyu walked up to where Zicuckoo's finger was, and looked around the lake, but she didn't even see half a person.

Yuanyang, Xueyan and Zijuan also looked around, but they didn't find any trace of Chunxian.

Lin Daiyu said:

"Sister Yuanyang, please follow me to find the old lady, and ask her to send someone to search the lake by boat."

"it is good!"

Yuanyang agreed immediately, and went to Rongqing Hall with Lin Daiyu to find Jia Mu and reported the matter.

Jia Mu was furious immediately, and immediately sent people to take a boat to salvage spring fibers in the lake, and promised Lin Daiyu that she would try to find out who was behind the scenes.

Mother Jia patted the back of Lin Daiyu's hand and said earnestly:

"I know you are skilled in martial arts, but it's hard to guard against house thieves. To protect your safety, I'll send two guards to guard the gate for you and protect you."

Lin Daiyu thought to herself, probably the martial arts of these two guards are not as high as her own, so she wanted to refuse, but

But after thinking about it, she still doesn't know what kind of insidious means Chunxian's behind-the-scenes master will use in the future. It's not a bad thing to have two more gatekeepers.
If the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to frame him, he would still have two nurses as witnesses to prove his innocence.

Half a day later, the boys searched the lake several times by boat, but they still couldn't find Chunxian.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but wonder if Zicuckoo lied?

After all, Chunxian jumping into the lake is just one side of Zicuckoo.

It is also possible that Zijuan let Chunxian go secretly, but made up a lie.

If this is the case, it proves that Zijuan and Chunxian are actually accomplices, and Chunxian wants to murder herself, so what about Zijuan?
Lin Daiyu thought carefully and was terrified.

But Zijuan usually takes great care of herself, even more caring than Xueyan, if Zijuan is wronged, wouldn't it be cold to her heart?
Lin Daiyu was kind-hearted, and didn't want to rely on white pollution to innocence, so she decided not to startle the snake, and then secretly observe Zijuan, and if she showed hostility, she would be accused.

As for Chunxian, it was as if the world had evaporated. Mother Jia sent people to search the Rongguo Mansion, but no trace of her was found.

In the early morning of the next day, Jia Chen was reading a book in his room when someone knocked on the door suddenly.

Qingwen ran to open the courtyard door, and it turned out that Jia Rong was visiting.

Qingwen saluted Jia Rong and invited him into the hall.

Accompanied by Xiang Ling, Jia Chen went to the hall to meet the guests.

But Jia Rong peeked at Qingwen and Xiangling with her squinting eyes from time to time.

Seeing this scene, Jia Chen couldn't help sneering in his heart:

So what if you have lust?You are just an inhumane eunuch.

"Rong'er greet Uncle Chen!" Jia Rong bowed halfway, saluted Jia Chen with a playful smile.

Jia Chen asked calmly:
"What do you want to do when you come to find me?"

Jia Rong said with a flattering smile:
"Do not go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, and have a private discussion with Uncle Chen if you have important matters."

As he spoke, he glanced at Qingwen and Xiangling.

Jia Chen said lightly:
"Qingwen and Xiangling are not outsiders, so if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Jia Rong smiled and said:

"Actually, Second Aunt Lian asked me to come to you for help."

Jia Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and said politely:

"Second Aunt Lian is my closest relative. As long as I can, I will do my best to help!"

Jia Rong flattered and said:

"Uncle Chen is really righteous! Then I'll say it straight, Second Aunt Lian wants us to catch rape tonight!"

Hearing these words, Jia Chen already guessed seven or eight points in his heart, pretending to be stunned and asked:

"How do you say this? Where does adultery come from?"

Jia Rong smirked wickedly and said:
"It's to catch Lian's second aunt and Uncle Rui's rape."

Sure enough, Jia Chen already guessed that this matter was related to Jia Rui.

But he remained calm and asked with a smile:

"Rong'er, are you kidding me? How could Lian's second sister-in-law let us catch her own rape?"

Jia Rong hastily apologized with a smile:
"Even if you give me ten guts, I wouldn't dare to lie to Uncle Chen!

In fact, it was a clever plan of Lian's second aunt. She will not show up tonight, but will lure Jia Rui into an empty room in the small passage behind her house.

When that fellow Jia Rui enters the house, we will break in, catch him, show him, scare him, and extort a hush money from him. "

Jia Chen is not interested in extorting that little money. Jia Rui is indeed not a fun thing, but he is the only grandson of his teacher Jia Dairu. If Jia Rui dies, Jia Dairu will have no descendants.

In the original book, Jia Rui suffered from the wind and cold tonight, and died without medicine or medicine.

Jia Dairu has taught him a kindness, if he can take this opportunity to save Jia Rui's life, it can be regarded as repaying his teacher's kindness.

Thinking of this, Jia Chen said with a smile:
"Okay, I promise you, let's play tricks on Jia Rui together tonight."
