This pot of peonies is not mine

1,

This pot of peony is not mine.

it's me……

and many more.

This pot of peonies was bought by Ming Su.

I bent my eyes, hugged the flowerpot, rubbed my face on the fragrant petals, then changed my face and continued rubbing.

it is mine.

Ahhhhh suddenly there is another person in my office!

2,

Ahhhhhhhh sweetheart!

Sweetheart, don't go!

In desperation, I quickly climbed onto the long table and flew towards him.

Woo, my jaw hurts.

My arm hurts, my knee hurts too.

Uh...

I lay on the ground miserably, raised my face with tears in my eyes, and stared sadly at my sweetheart.

However, he was not moved by the affectionate expression in my eyes, but took a step back, avoiding my pitiful hand that was pulling the hem of his clothes in disgust.

The plain silk dress on his body seemed to be one size too big, it was worn loosely on his body, and the neckline was also opened slightly wider, revealing a deep collarbone and half fragrant shoulders.

Hey.

I'm about to climb forward.

His porcelain-like face was slightly red, and his expression was tense. He looked at me coldly and said, "Sexy!"

My life lost its meaning.

I lay on the ground with my arms pillowed on my head: "Oh."

3,

The door was pushed open with a "bang", and two Zaoli rushed in and asked, "Ming Shilang, what's wrong with you?!"

Hey, Minister Ming doesn't want to talk.

I buried my face in the crook of one arm, stretched out the other hand, and pointed tremblingly forward.

"What are you doing lying on the ground? It's cold on the ground, get up!" The two forcefully lifted me up, and then asked blindly, "What are you referring to?"

You can't see him!

I widened my eyes, pointed at my sweetheart's cold but glamorous face, sniffed his delicate fragrance, and said, "..." I closed my mouth, because my sweetheart frowned and shook my head. shook his head.

I understand!He's asking me to keep it a secret!

I'm so happy to have a private connection with my sweetheart!

The next step is to ask for a kiss!

Hey, I really want to kiss the half peony flower on his forehead.

Little Peony: It's not makeup, it's the body.

4,

"What are you doing?" A clear voice came.

I turned my head and saw Ling Chumeng walked in.

When I look at him now, I can still think of the embarrassing confession ball he dunked a few days ago.

My mood is a little complicated.

Originally, Ling Chumeng was just a glib young master in my eyes.

Now... In my eyes, he has become a glib young man who loves to eat grass beside the nest, so he needs to keep a proper distance, but when keeping the distance, he should be careful not to go too far.

Ling Chumeng was not born in the Imperial Academy. He was admitted to Jinshi at the age of 20, and became the servant of the household department as soon as he entered the official career.Then seven or eight years later, he is still the servant of the household department.It doesn't rise, fall or move, it's as stable as a bowl of water.

The Ling family is as powerful as the Shen family, but Young Master Ling seems to be a man with no ambitions, not at all like my family... Cough, not as ambitious as Shen Qian at all!

Young Master Ling loves to be stinky, flirtatious, and has a cheap mouth. He doesn't usually wear official uniforms. He loves white clothes better than snowy sleeves, pretending to be chic and seductive beauties...

and many more.

Love white clothes wins snow clothes fluttering dress chic hook a beauty?

White clothes? !

Zaolijia said: "Ming Shilang fell to the ground for some reason."

I don't blink an eye.

I thoughtfully looked at Ling Chumeng from top to bottom, and thoughtfully looked at my sweetheart from head to toe.

I slowly rubbed my chin, and slowly bent over to pat the dust off my body: "..."

Ling Chumeng said to the two Zaoli: "You go out first."

I straightened up and watched the two Zao Li walk out the door.

I was silent for two seconds.

I didn't break my brain.

I just suddenly became enlightened, and I felt like I was desperate for hope.

I said why is my sweetheart's plain silk dress one size bigger and still look so familiar!

My face was hot with excitement, and I tremblingly pointed at my sweetheart and then at Ling Chumeng, and then at Ling Chumeng and at my sweetheart: "You, you! Ling Chumeng, you beast!"

Ling Chumeng turned a deaf ear to my accusation, he stepped forward shamelessly, lifted his sweetheart's neckline, and then held his shoulders with both hands, his eyes were unprecedentedly serious: "Where have you been these few days, huh?"

The sweetheart glanced away coldly, and he said to me without any distractions: "Who are you scolding?"

God is above!

I swear brightly by peony flowers!

I didn't curse at all, I just thought about it in my heart!

He hummed indifferently, and said, "I can't even think about it."

Huh?

……

Ahhhhhhh mother, he knows what I'm thinking!

Ling Chumeng didn't seem surprised at all, his face was full of spring breeze, he held that, that's face tenderly, and kissed the half peony on his forehead.

Hey, I, I want to kiss too.

5,

The sweetheart drove Ling Chumeng out, closed the door, and put a bar on it.

Could it be... is he going to do something embarrassing to me? !

I look forward to it~

My eyes were full of spring and I looked at him like a wolf like a tiger.

The sweetheart said: "My name is Fugui, and I am a peony flower essence that has not yet matured."

Good, good name?

Flowers, flower essences?

The amount of information is a bit large...

I knelt down and held onto the table legs.

No, I have to take it easy.

Peony Flower Essence, of course I accept it!

but.

There is a poem sung like this: "The first-rate among thousands of flowers, the light clouds lightly dye the tender Yinou."

There is also a poem sung like this: "Colorful clouds gather in the cage, and the bright red pearls are exposed."

There is also a poem that sings like this: "Thousands of Chiyingxia are rotten, and hundreds of crimson lights are shining brightly."

……

I rubbed my eyes vigorously with my hands so that I didn’t cry out—there are thousands and thousands of ready-made good names in the poems, why should my sweetheart be called Fugui?

Who took it? !

Stand up for my servant!

I want to smear his face with all Tang poems!

woohoo...

Hua Jing looked at me condescendingly, and replied, "It's been more than ten years since I think about it. It was taken by a little boy, who seems to be called Shen Qian."

"..."

Life is already so hard.

Why do you have to dive one step at a time?

Another step and another dive?

why!

I feel hopeless.

6,

I looked up at Fu, Fugui with tears in my eyes, and asked luckily, "Why did you drive Ling Chumeng out? Do you hate him very much?"

His gorgeous red lips curled into a cold smile: "No, I'm just afraid of scaring him. Ah Chu doesn't know my identity yet."

I squeezed my lips together so I didn't cry——

Fugui, you don't feel sorry for me at all!

I am disappointed!Very disappointed!

But I am bright, after all, I was the champion of the last year, not only with outstanding knowledge and talent, but also with excellent psychological quality.I didn't give up, I persevered: "Ling Chumeng is a very rascal, a hooligan, and a playful person. Really! He just confessed to me a few days ago! His white clothes have been worn by many people. It's so dirty, take it off quickly!" I remembered that Mingsu had prepared some regular clothes for me in the office, so I stood up quickly and said like a treasure, "Wait a minute, I'll give you clean clothes to change into. .”

"No need." He gently stroked the sleeves and arms with his soft finger skin, and his face was stained with a touch of light, "I like it very much."

Speechless to ask the sky——

How many times am I going to have my heart broken today?

7,

Fu, Fugui confessed everything to me.

Hmm... It can't be said to be "confessed", it should be regarded as answering every question.

I waved and asked him: "Why did you suddenly appear in my office~"

He pointed to the pot of peonies on the table and said, "I'm hiding there."

"Hiding?"

He said bluntly, "I want to see Ah Chu."

"..."

So I pouted and asked him, "What's your relationship with Ling Chumeng?"

He spoke sweetly and told a love story tens of thousands of words long.

To be honest, I don't really want to hear this story.

I just want to know the ending.

Knowing that he and Ling Chumeng are willing to be lovebirds in the sky and Lian Lizhi on the ground, then I just obediently give up and wish silently.

But I couldn't bear to interrupt him.

Hey, the way he talks like sugar in his mouth is too nationalistic.

To sum it up, it is a clichéd story of being rescued from a serious injury.The one who was seriously injured was Ling Chumeng, and the one who wanted to make a promise with his body was Fugui.

I didn't understand the logic of wealth at first.But obviously Fugui had read too many tear-jerking romantic stories in the Shenfu Library, so he successfully convinced me with those really beautiful hypocritical words and a really pretty face.

Only when he said: "I opened my eyes, I saw his pale face and silent eyebrows, like a tired horse on a cloudy day. I like horses.", I really wanted to reply: "It's good for you to love the white horse spirit." Yes, why are you looking at Ling Chumeng?"

But I hold back.

I should silently bless him.

Fugui said that he can hide in any peony, and he can also turn into a human form for the world to see, and he can also be invisible.

I envied: "It's so good! Invisibility!"

He paused for some reason, and then said, "However, this skill is useless to you."

My idiotic smile was still on my face, and I tilted my head when I heard this and asked him: "...What do you mean~"

"Well... I'm actually invisible now."

"!"

OMG, only I can see it's real!

This is fate, this is love!

I think I can still compete with Ling Chumeng.

laugh.

Fugui continued: "However, when I transform into a human form, I can't be too far away from Peony."

In order to fully demonstrate my intelligence and alertness, I will compare Ling Chumeng.I brightened my eyes and said, "You hold a peony in your hand, so you can leave casually? Isn't that right?"

He paused again, and looked up at me.Those long, black eyelashes seemed to swipe across my heart, making me want to giggle.

Fugui responded lightly: "Well, as long as the flowers wither before."

I smiled brightly: "That's right~"

I'm smart~

Fugui pointed to the peonies on the table: "Well, pull one out for me."

"... Huh?" I was taken aback.

He nodded and said, "I can't pull it out."

"..."

It turned out that this was the reason why Fugui met me honestly.

He just wanted me to help him pull out the flowers, and then go to his Ling Chumeng.

hum.

My heart hurts so much.

8,

I pushed open the door and saw Ling Chumeng squatting outside listening to the corner.

I silently squatted beside him, and handed out the peony flower with a face of reluctance: "Here, I will send it to you. Take him home."

Ling Chumeng took it, stared at it for a while, and laughed silly: "So you saved me."

I opened my mouth, wanting to make a fuss about Fugui.

But Ling Chumeng said first: "I heard everything."

"..."

It seems that there is nothing wrong with Fugui's worry, and Ling Chumeng is a sign of being a little scared.

9,

I haven't seen Shen Qian for several days.

I don't miss him.

But I had to go to the Shen residence to expose his clumsy lies.

You may have forgotten that he lied to me the other day that peony flower essence does not exist, but I remember.

Looking back now, I still feel that IQ was seriously insulted.

So I want to slap his face myself to relieve the hatred in my heart!

Shen Qian and I met in the Peony Garden of Shen Mansion.

When I arrived, I saw not far away, his handsome back outlined by the setting sun and shaded by peonies.

I didn't have any intention of prostitution to him.

Shen Qian turned around and showed me a smile that lost all sharpness.

Really, I don't have the slightest intention to prostitute him.

I asked him furiously, "Why did you give Peony Flower Essence such an ugly name as Fugui!"

Shen Qian frowned slightly, then stretched out.As if remembering something.

Behind him, the sun is setting and the peonies are breeze.

He recited a poem to me: "Yichun bears summer, so blessed and majestic, rich and honored for a long time."

I didn't expect Shen Qian (when I was a child) to be such an uneducated person.

He actually borrowed a poem about lotus to name a peony essence.

But I praised Shen Qian against my conscience, and took the initiative to go forward and hook his neck, and kissed his slippery left cheek.

Then I pointed to a pot of peonies, looked at him with dog eyes and asked, "Can you give me that pot of peonies?"

10,

Here's the thing -

Before pulling out the peony in the office, I made a final struggle: "Can you change the name?"

He frowned and shook his head.

Sad to the point of frowning: "Can't you think about it again?"

"Unless..." He looked at me fixedly, "You go to Shen's mansion to steal a pot of peonies."

"..."

Fugui said that he used to live in Shen's mansion before, and hoped that I could steal a certain pot of peonies.

To be more specific, that pot of peony flowers, under the light of Lixia and Xushi, will cast a shadow four feet two inches long and one foot wide on the ground, which is the most beautiful peony flower shadow in the world, it is said.

The more critical point is that it is a pot of white peonies.

What's more interesting is that there is only one white peony in Shen's peony garden.

Ha ha.

However, bright I am not afraid at all!

Not bragging, but modestly speaking, I have a hundred ways to get that pot of white peonies.

11,

Shen Qian looked at me affectionately, getting closer and closer until he pressed the tip of his nose against mine, and said, "No."

"Well……"

12,

"Unless..." Shen Qian kissed enough, let go of my mouth, and said, "You tell the whole story."

I thought about it for a while, but in the end I couldn't resist the temptation to change Fugui to a nice name.

I started from the peony flower meeting in Shen's mansion two months ago, from my glimpse of the peony flower in the pot, to "the palace makeup is gorgeous, the skin is soft and greasy, the waist is full, the breath is like blue, the nose is breathless, the sweat is fumigated, The riches and honors of "not smelling good" hit my boyish heart at a certain moment, and Shen Qian's face was not usually dark.

laugh.

Then the time transitioned to the night when Master Shen was assassinated not long ago. In fact, Fugui has been following me in the dark.He saw me bumping all the way with the flowerpot in my hand, turning over a wall and twisting my waist, and shaking the soil loose by the way.

Fugui thought: Here comes the opportunity!

He pulled out the flower and ran away, casually throwing down a method that was not very careless, and transformed into a peony flower on the flowerpot.

and so.

Really, no, I'm blind.

Nor, I, have great eyesight.

Only I can see the mystery of peony flowers that appear and disappear from time to time. The truth is that Fugui's cultivation is too scumbag!I'm not sorry for the word "fine" at all!

Shen Qian grabbed my shoulder, put his chin on top of my head and laughed for a long, long time.

In fact, I really don't understand what is so funny about this sad story.

My world is full of confusion.

Mother, why did this man pinch my ass?

13,

I took a few steps back and kept a certain distance from Shen Qian.

He also relayed to him the later experience of Fugui.

After gaining freedom, Fugui found Ling's mansion when the cock crowed, relying on his astonishingly keen sense of smell and wonderful mind-reading skills.

It is not so easy for people to see the flower essence, let alone the kind of flower essence with a slightly sloppy cultivation base.Except for someone as gifted as me, other people need skin-to-skin contact if they want to see him when he is invisible.

You don't know how much I wanted to rush out and beat Ling Chumeng when I heard this passage in the office.

In fact, I really went out and kicked Ling Chumeng, and then I returned to the office with a normal face and continued to listen to Fugui.

"Then why did Fugui go to the Ministry of Household Affairs?" Shen Qian asked.

"..."

Shen Qian is really an impatient Minister of the Ministry of Justice. I haven't mentioned this point yet. His question fundamentally disturbed my thinking about telling the story.

No way, I had to stop and think for a while.

14,

I'm a one-and-done person.

I must follow the original train of thought to continue!

I took two steps back and asked Shen Qian, "Do you know about Ling Chumeng's confession to me?"

His face immediately turned black.

Hey, it's so interesting!

I looked at him with a smile: "It was that day you broke in suddenly and heard me say that I like you very much, but in fact it was to make Ling Chumeng give up. Don't get me wrong, I definitely don't mean to covet you at all! "

Ahh, finally the truth is being told, I feel light all over.

Hey, is it because the light is getting darker?

Why is Shen Qian's expression... so... indescribable...

"And then?" he asked with a smile.

"Oh." I bowed my head and twisted my fingers, "Actually, Fugui forced Ling Chumeng to confess. Fugui said that Ling Chumeng would be in pain after being rejected, so he can take advantage of it... Do you think Fugui is good for him?" Smart!" I secretly looked at Shen Qian.

"I don't want to hear it anymore." Shen Qian suddenly turned cold and said.

"...Huh?" I was taken aback.

But I really want to go on.

Why don't you let me go on!

Boo!

"This pot of white peonies is my father's favorite flower. When my father wakes up, you can ask him for it." He gently flicked his sleeves and turned his back.

"..." I stepped forward and tugged at his sleeve, "Are you unhappy?"

He gave me a slight sideways glance.The half-drawn black eyelashes were like the sharp light of a knife.

15,

This pot of peony is not mine.

Originally, I had a hundred ways to get it.

but.

Any method, without diving, will not work.

even……

It doesn't even matter if you can't get peonies.It wasn't mine in the first place.

But without Shen Qian, no way.

Can't it?

I bit my nails and thought for a while.

"Okay." I put my arms around his waist, "I have a little bit of covet for you, is that okay?"

Later, Shen Qian said that he was holding back his laughter.

Mother, I really want to hit him.

16,

I happily held the white peony and planned to leave.

As soon as he took a step, he was hooked by the back collar.

"What are you doing?"

"Chen Lan was bailed out." Shen Qian said with a serious expression, "We haven't found any real evidence."

"This, this, this," I stammered, "he is obviously suspicious!"

Across the white peony, Shen Qian reached out and rubbed my head: "I know, but the Ministry of Punishment cannot detain court officials without reason. If you find anything wrong with him, please remember to tell me."

"Okay." I nodded thoughtfully.

A smile appeared on the corner of Shen Qian's mouth: "There is one more thing, I have always wanted to discuss it with you."

I feel a little bad.

He actually used the word "discussion", there must be something tricky.

Shen Qian rubbed his forehead and smiled, trying to hide his emotions: "Look, it's been a few days. In fact, I should have said it when I was looking for you the first time."

"Go ahead."

I can stand it.

Shen Qian raised his fox-like eyebrows slightly: "Recently, the price of salt and rice has skyrocketed. Should the salary of our officials in the Ministry of Punishment also increase? Minister Ming."

I bluffed my face: "Don't lie to me. In addition to the established salary, Zaoli of the Ministry of Punishment receives two taels of rice silver and two taels of subsidy silver each month. Every four months, they also give out three stones of old rice and five buckets of millet. Why is it not enough to eat?" ?”

Shen Qian approached me slowly, and breathed on my face: "Ming Shilang has a good memory, so why forget what I said just now, the price of salt and rice has soared recently, originally four taels of silver was enough to eat, but now it's not enough. Ming Shilang doesn't want to Shouldn’t the prison guards deduct the price of prisoners’ food and medicine?”

I looked straight into his eyes with a stern face: "Shangshu Shen, whether the prison officials of the Ministry of Punishment have neglected their duties and abused their power is an internal conflict between you. The Ministry of Household Affairs is not responsible for it."

"Well, but, how come the amount of silver allocated by the Ministry of Household to the Ministry of Punishment every year is only decreasing but not increasing? Is it true that there are officials in the Ministry of Household who neglect their duties and abuse their power? Your internal conflicts may affect the survival of our Ministry of Punishment."

My face was flushed red: "...The Prison Office of the Ministry of Punishment collects tens of thousands of taels of silver from various places every year. Shen Shangshu is reluctant to use it as a reward for subsidies and allowances. He only wants money from the household management department. Isn't it appropriate?!"

I was so angry that I pushed him, but it didn't work.

I ran away a few steps, squatted down and put Bai Mudan down, so as not to accidentally injure innocent people.

Just as I was about to stand up, I felt someone poke my buttocks hard.

I was so embarrassed that I stood up clutching my buttocks, turned around and grabbed Shen Qian's skirt, blushing and yelling, "And that amount was set by your father, what's the use of you looking for me?"

Shen Qian held down my lower back and stuck to him tightly.Then, in a slightly aggrieved tone, he admitted, "You just angered me with Fu Gui and Ling Chu's alliance, and I want to bully you back."

After speaking, I raised my chin and kissed me deeply.The hand on the waist slid down wantonly.

"Well……"

I'm so angry, I really want to hit him!

But what if you can't beat it?

Hey, my innocent body.

17,

No matter what happened last night, I am still a good servant who is pure and pure and considers the people.

I still look coldly at Ling Chumeng, and if I can kick it, it's a kick.

The only difference is that Chen Lan has come to work in the household department again.

I am afraid.

I want to discuss the countermeasures with Jiang Jiang.

Knocked on the door for a while, but no one answered.

Asleep in it?

Hmph, deduct his salary.

be late?absenteeism?

Hmph, deduct his salary.

Thiefly, I licked my fingers and was about to poke a hole in the door when someone stopped me.

"Ming Shilang, you are safe and sound."

I turned around stiffly: "Hehe, long time no see." Chen Lan.

Chen Lan looked sallow and thin, and must have suffered a lot these days.

It's over, he must hate me to death.

I turned my eyes to observe the terrain. There was a wall on the left, a locked door on the right, and the long corridors in front and back were empty.

If I want to escape from birth, rely on my skills...

Hey, how can I have any skills?

18,

"Your mistress didn't tell you?" Chen Lan leaned on the wall with her left arm, blocking my way, with a naughty smile at the corner of her mouth, "Jiang Zhiyu was arrested in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

I stared in surprise: "What?!"

"Liangliang, come here."

Following the sound, it was Ling Chumeng calling me at the end of the corridor.

Woo, it came just in time.

I boldly pushed Chen Lan's left arm away, took a few steps forward, then turned around and stared at him: "Why do you say that Jiang Zhiyu has been arrested?"

I stepped back towards Ling Chumeng step by step.

Chen Lan shrugged and winked at me: "It's fine if you don't believe me. But I warn you, if you mess with me, there will be no good end." He threatened bluntly.

I'm so angry, I really want to smash him to death with something.

19,

"Do you know who bailed him out?" Walking to a secluded place, Ling Chumeng whispered in my ear, "Fifth prince."

I am in awe: "Fifth Prince?"

The one at the Lantern Festival banquet who is good at playing flute and looks good!

"Well... They have an indescribable relationship."

"I reject."

"What's the use of refusing?"

"I refuse again."

"Don't make trouble."

"Woo... By the way, where's Jiang Jiang?! Where's my Jiang Zhiyu?!" I jumped up.

Ling Chumeng looked at me silently for a while: "Stop jumping around. Jiang Zhiyu was indeed arrested, why?" He smiled meaningfully, "Go and ask your mistress."

I calmly explained: "...I don't have a concubine!"

"Oh."

I continued calmly: "Really not!"

"Then you know who to go to?"

"..."

"Ok?"

"……Know."

20,

Today is Lixia, and there will be a grand fireworks on the bank of Liunan River.

Last night, Shen Qian asked me to meet on the [-]th floor of Yongshi Street at [-]:[-] the next day.

Mingsu also joked at the time that he should ask Jiang Jiang to paint me a cool orange pomelo makeup suitable for summer, so that I can go to the appointment.

I couldn't help but think of the experience of being kicked out by Jiang Zhiyu the last time, and said unhappily, "Believe it or not, I will draw you a cool panda makeup suitable for summer while you are asleep?"

Ming Su thought I was joking.

too naive.

I absolutely mean it.

If he had looked in the mirror before going out this morning, he would have known that I am such a gentleman who keeps his word and keeps his word.

21,

But today, Jiang Zhiyu disappeared.

I want to ask Shen Qian to clarify.

He caught people.

Why didn't you tell me yesterday?

22,

Shen Qian is dressed in blue, which is bluer than the sea.

He was holding on to a playlist in his hand, glanced at it, and leaned over to watch it with me: "Jiaoran, which one do you want?"

I grabbed his wide cuff: "Why did you arrest Jiang Jiang?"

Shen Qian pursed his lips lightly: ""Tong Le Yuan Yan Qing Bo Yu"? Or "Jing Meng"?"

Although I know that dog eyes are useless to Shen Qian, but when I was anxious, I still stared at him pitifully: "Is it because he sells fake rouge and gouache? He has changed it, you have to learn to look at people with dialectical eyes..."

Shen Qian's expression changed: "Jiang Zhiyu ever sold fake rouge powder?"

"..."

Jiang Jiang, I'm sorry for you.

I quickly changed the subject: "Ah! Listen, fireworks!"

"...I don't even want to expose you."

I covered my face: "You are so dirty! I won't listen!"

Shen Qian took a breath, and said in a deep voice, "Did I warn you not to tease people casually?"

I searched in my memory and said seriously: "You didn't."

He gritted his teeth a bit: "Very good. After that, remember it for me."

"Well……"

Just chat, why are you always talking!

Join the hooligans!

23,

On the way from the twelfth floor to the Liunan River, I asked Shen Qian, "Did I leave the white peony with you last night?"

Shen Qian smiled meekly in the shadow of the lamp, as relaxed as a banished fairy: "Well, then follow me back later?"

My heart tightened, and I couldn't help but clenched my fists before putting on a straight face and saying, "I don't want it anymore."

"Oh? Don't want to change the name of Peony Flower Essence?"

rich, expensive.

Oh, I really want to cry.

I said firmly, "No more."

After all, it is more important to be innocent.

Shen Qian scratched my chin with his slender index finger: "Want to know why Jiang Zhiyu was arrested?"

I didn't answer, just looked at him with shining eyes.

hum.

"He is suspected of assassinating the Minister of the Household Department."

"..." I was taken aback for a moment, and then shouted, "Impossible!"

24,

"Do you still remember that day I asked you for a badge?"

"En." I heard the words and touched the jade badge on my waist.

"In my father's room, there is a small puddle of dried blood on the floor, with the word 'hu' printed on it. The 'hu' of the household department."

"So..." I bit my nails and thought for a while, "The guy who was elusive at that time, was he smelling the blood on his belt card?"

"Ah."

Shen Qian stepped onto a black-covered boat parked by the river, turned around and extended his hand to me.

Five or six clusters of fireworks exploded suddenly behind him.

The sound continued to vibrate in my heart, together with the naturally half-hanging hand he handed over.

The boat left the shore, and there was the sound of oars.

25,

"That day, when Jiang Zhiyu walked into your office, his hand was cut. He said it was scratched by Wuzi."

The hull of the boat swayed leisurely, heading for the center of the river.

I lowered my head and stared blankly at the Liunan River, which reflected colorful purples and reds, streamers and fireflies.

At the end, he retorted: "Yeah, it's not impossible."

The night wind blew Shen Qian's black hair, and he looked at me with deep eyes: "Ah Qing can smell it, the smell of new blood and old blood are different. At that time, I was the one who caught the five sons' dowry that Jiang Zhiyu threw over. , there is no sharp ridge at all, how could it be possible to draw blood? Then why did he spread such a lie? What kind of secret is there? The only explanation is that he cut his own hand and smeared the blood on Chen Lan's waist card Go up and blame Chen Lan. On this point, Chen Lan also confirmed that Jiang Xingyu was indeed sneaking around him that day."

"I don't believe it." I murmured in confusion, "You don't have any evidence."

Shen Qian sighed and comforted: "Well, it's just suspicion at the moment, so you don't need to worry too much."

I looked up, looked at the fireworks in his pupils that flickered on and off, and asked him: "So, is there any blood on Jiang Zhiyu's waist card?"

"No." Shen Qian replied affirmatively, "There is not even the smell of blood. But this is not enough to clear his suspicion. Bringing him to the criminal department is just interrogation as usual. Once it is confirmed that he is innocent, he will be released. Just Just like letting Chen Lan go before."

I curled my lips: "You lied, Chen Lan was tortured by you to become pale and emaciated, I saw it all. A beast!" After a pause, I added, "Better than a beast!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Shen Qian lowered his face slightly and grinned, "Chen Shilang is a senior official of the third rank, no one in the Ministry of Punishment would dare to do anything to him." He came over and rubbed my head.

"what?"

Shen Qian leaned close to my ear, breathed hot air and said, "He was squeezed dry by the Fifth Prince."

"..." I blushed, "You are shameless!"

26,

It was already six o'clock when Shen Qian sent me back to my house.

I pushed the door, but it didn't open.

Ming Su will not lock me out.

How could Ming Su lock it outside?

Ok.

I must have pushed the door wrong.

I use my hands and feet and push hard.

Still didn't push it away.

I took a few steps back and looked up.

It is true that "Mingfu" is written on the plaque.

I scratched the back of my head and looked at Shen Qian in confusion.

Shen Qian returned a puzzled look.

So aggrieved.

I stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Ming Su! Su Su! Ming Su Su!"

My desolate roar swayed in the silent night.

Why did Mingsu lock me out?

hum.

Shen Qian hugged me from behind, smiled and whispered: "Jiaoran, are you sure you don't want to go back with me?"

I pursed my lips aggrievedly, and shook my head loyally.

27,

Suddenly, I felt the door shake slightly.

It seemed that someone leaned heavily on it.

Leaned again.

Leaned again.

Leaned again.

again……

It was an indescribable rhythm.

Accompanied by some kind of sound that is not easy to describe.

I was silent for a while, then figured it out.

I blushed and faced Shen Qian facelessly.

Finally, I said wittily in a voice softer than a mosquito: "Shen Qian, I seem to have gone wrong, this is not my home."

Shen Qian put his arms around my waist and led me back.

He took my shoulders and walked out, wrapping his wet tongue around my ear in the dark: "Don't lie to me. Don't forget, I've been to your house."

Hmph, it's hard to beat me?

"Ugh..." It was itchy, "To be honest, I just moved a few days ago."

"Oh, where did you move to?"

"..." I racked my brains to recall the address of Jiang Zhiyu's home, but I couldn't remember it.

I racked my brains to recall the address of Ling Chumeng's house, but I still couldn't recall it.

"Woooo...let me go!" I broke free from Shen Qian's arms, held back for a long time, and said, "Fulai Inn."

27,

Before I finished speaking, the door opened slowly.

My face and heart were extremely flustered.

He saw Ming Su's flushed face, disheveled hair, and wrinkled clothes.Wrapped in the arms of the man behind him.

Hey, Brother Liushen!

What a coincidence!

Given that they were doing something inconvenient to describe.

After thinking about it, I thoughtfully snatched the lamp from Shen Qian's hand and threw it aside.

I swear, I meant to want the lights to go out.

But it backfired, and it ignited.

In the firelight, one could clearly see Mingsu's exposed half of his white leg trembling.

This is awkward.

I was interested to take a closer look, but Shen Qian covered my eyes.

"Bang!"

The door was closed again.

This is obviously my home!

Why shut me out?

What the hell!

Ah!

28,

I sat sadly on the front step, chin resting on my face, watching the lamp burn and turn to ashes.

I feel ashamed.

You may be wondering why no one opened the door for me.

Because housing prices in the capital are too expensive, and I'm just a young servant who just took office, I spent all my savings on buying a small house with a small yard.In order to save resources and open up the flow, all the followers who could resign have resigned, and they all rely on the almighty Xiao Mingsu for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

So if brother Liushen wants to marry Mingsu away, I might choose to fight him.

You don't need to feel sorry for me.

Although my salary is small, the Ministry of Households has a lot of maintenance money (distributed once every six months).

Although the small treasury is exhausted, my mother will send someone to give me money.

……

Although the door was shut in the middle of the night, Shen Qian would invite me to his house.

29,

On the way back to the Shen Mansion by Shen Qian, I had a small plan in mind and asked him: "Chen Lan
