The flowers and plants in the garden started arguing about this, chirping and refusing to give in to each other.
"Really? I clearly feel it belongs to a fox demon."
"Your feeling is wrong. That's not the stench of a fox demon. It's the smell of a dead person."
"Yes, it's the smell of death."
"No, it smells like a fox."
"The smell of death."
"The smell of a slutty fox."
"The smell of death."
"......"
The cheerful little boy's face darkened, he rolled his eyes at the flowers and plants, put his hands on his hips, and stomped his feet.
[Shut up, you idiots. I won't pay attention to you.]
He stomped his feet several times, turned around and walked away very quickly.
Liu Ming looked at her, covered his mouth and laughed, thinking that the young lady was really cute. She could even get angry at flowers, plants and trees.
The days passed by as Naituanzi was being funny, and in the blink of an eye it was the eighth day of August, the day Chu Zhiyin was to get married.
Naituanzi walked more steadily now, and ran to watch her aunt put on makeup in the morning.
Yang was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she held her hand and stopped her from running around.
Chu Zhiyin is most grateful to her little niece for what she has today. When she saw her niece coming, she hugged her in her arms.
The little milk ball touched her belly with his little hand, mumbling something in his mouth, then let go and smiled happily.
[Ahaha! I have already recited a spell to my aunt. Soon, I will have cousins.]
Chu Zhiyin looked at her niece with a slightly embarrassed expression, thinking that she spoke without restraint. Fortunately, it was her inner voice and no one could hear it.
She was very happy when she heard that she would have a son and a daughter.
Princess Qingyuan had remarried before, so Chu Zhiyin's marriage went smoothly, mainly because there were no elders in the Jiang family, and Jiang Chenjue arranged everything by himself.
Wearing a bright red wedding dress and going out, looking at Jiang Chenjue wearing a red flower and riding on a tall horse, Chu Zhiyin's heart was sweeter than honey.
Ping Ninghou arrived and sat in the seat for elders. On the other side was the tablet of Jiang Chenjue’s biological mother.
This was originally against the rules, but Jiang Chenjue insisted on doing it, and Marquis Pingning had no way to stop him.
He knew that his eldest son was resentful. He hated him for not protecting his cousin, and hated Chen even more for killing his mother.
He lived in a separate residence because he didn't want to have anything to do with Marquis Pingning.
That’s good. My son is ambitious and doesn’t rely on his ancestors. It’s his ability and it also makes me proud.
After the wedding ceremony, Chu Zhiyin was led into the bridal chamber.
Jiang Chenjue lifted her veil according to the rules, ordered people to bring a lot of food to Chu Zhiyin, and went to the front yard to entertain the guests.
Marquis Pingning had not finished his meal when he was called away by someone from his family. Jiang Chenjue overheard that it seemed that they were saying that the young master Jiang Chenyu was missing and had not returned home for several days.
He didn't care. Today was his big day. It was really unlucky to suddenly hear that Jiang Chenyu was missing.
After seeing off all the guests, it was already late at night. Jiang Chenjue didn't drink much, and when others wanted to force him to drink, he always made excuses to get rid of them.
He has to come back to drink the wedding wine with his wife?
After they drank the wedding wine, they performed the ceremony of husband and wife.
The next morning, just after dawn, there was a knock on the door. The housekeeper Yu Shu came to report: "General! Pingning Hou is here to discuss important matters."
Jiang Chenjue quickly stood up. Chu Zhiyin was about to get up, but he held her down: "Yin'er! Sleep a little longer. It's not even daybreak yet."
How could Chu Zhiyin dare? The old man came to visit, and today was her first day as the new bride of the Jiang family. She couldn't get up late no matter what.
"No, I should get up too. General, go first, I'll follow soon."
In the front hall, as soon as Jiang Chenjue entered, he saw Pingning Hou, who looked haggard, with wrinkled clothes, red eyes and a weak aura.
"Father! What happened?"
How come he looks like this in just one night? He looks several years older.
"Jue'er! Your brother is missing."
As soon as Ping Ninghou finished speaking, he burst into tears of heartache, covered his face and cried silently.
Jiang Chenjue frowned. This prince's younger brother had been fearless since he was young, and Chen spoiled him blindly, so he started to have sex with the maidservants around him at the age of thirteen.
When someone refused to obey, he strangled the person to death. Chen not only did not blame him, but also covered up for him, and things got out of control.
He was a well-known playboy in the capital, hanging out with all kinds of people. It was only a matter of time before something bad happened, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon.
"When did he disappear? Why did he disappear? Where did he go? Where are the people who were with him? Are they missing too?"
Pingning Hou was crying, but when he heard his eldest son's question, he wiped his tears and said, "It's been a while since we last met. He said he was going out to visit friends and have some fun.
Your mother let him go, and the people who followed him came back yesterday and said that your brother was missing."
Jiang Chenjue looked suspicious: "Where can we find it?"
"In an inn in another city. Your brother and a group of friends were staying there. They were all fine, but your brother was missing. The people who followed him searched for a long time nearby, but they didn't dare to rush back to report the news."
"Have you informed the local police?"
"I have reported it." Ping Ninghou thought of his youngest son and couldn't help but feel sad again. "I haven't seen him for so many days. I'm afraid he is in danger!"
Jiang Chenjue also thought so, but he didn't say it right away. Instead, he asked, "What did the local police say?"
Pingning Hou was silent for a moment, then answered him, "The local police said there were no signs of fighting in the inn, and your brother went with them voluntarily. This means that the person who took him away was an acquaintance, and we don't know who took him away."
"Then report to the government office in the capital and find out if anyone in the capital has brought my brother back."
"Okay! I will report to the Jingzhao prefecture governor right away."
Ping Ninghou's troubled heart calmed down a little, and he didn't waste time talking to Jiang Chenjue. He immediately got up and went out.
When Chu Zhiyin came over, Marquis Pingning had already left.
She asked in surprise, "Where's my father?"
"I'm leaving."
"What are you doing here?"
She was very curious, why did her father-in-law come to the house so early in the morning? Could something big have happened?
Jiang Chenjue helped her sit down and sighed, "The Prince of Pingning is gone."
"ah?"
Chu Zhiyin was startled. Although she didn't have a good impression of the Prince of Pingning, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she heard that he was missing.
"Why would a good person disappear? Could he be staying at someone's house for a while? After all, we are getting married, and it would be awkward if he came or not. It's possible that he avoided us on purpose."
"I hope so." Jiang Chenjue's eyes were filled with displeasure. "Humph! That man is a troublemaker. He has messed up my happy wedding."
Chu Zhiyin poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chenjue and asked tentatively: "Should we go to the Marquis' Mansion to visit him?"
Taking the tea, Jiang Chenjue shook his head slightly: "No, Chen is not worthy of your visit. A woman with a vicious heart is not your real mother-in-law.
I have already separated my residence and I am the only one who will be involved in the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion. You must never get involved in it. It is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones.
Chen has done too many evil things, and it is certain that retribution will fall on her son. I feel that Jiang Chenyu is in great danger of something bad happening to him."
