"Ha." Shen Qingqing raised her lips and smiled, "Qi Sheng knew you were coming, so he must have cleared up all the relevant people and evidence. Even if there are any omissions, what kind of clues will be traced back to the year of the monkey?"
Gu Jiali pursed his lips even tighter. He had to admit that Shen Qingqing was telling the truth. It was difficult to investigate the case of fire in the class room, and since this was in Xiangcheng, there were too many restrictions, making it even more difficult.
Shen Qingqing expected that he would react like this, so she laughed, picked up the tea cup from the table, and said: "Mr. Gu, the play is already halfway through. It's too late to say no to the play now, so just bite the bullet and do it."
After saying that, he raised his hand and threw the cup.
Gu Jiali and Zhiyi were startled at the same time, and saw her lift up her skirt and kneel down, crying in a controlled tone: "My parents died unjustly, I beg Master Gu to make the decision for me!"
The voice was tender and delicate, as if he had been greatly wronged.
Gu Jiali reacted quickly and continued in a deep voice: "I know that you are suffering in your heart, but the prisoners who died in the fire and the jailers are also suffering. I cannot deliberately show favoritism and abandon those who were buried just because you are my maid.
The people in the sea of fire are ignored."
Shen Qingqing asked loudly: "Today there is an arson case, tomorrow there will be a murder case, there are so many injustices in the world, when will you have time to help the slaves redress their grievances?"
The room was quiet for a while, and then Gu Jiali's slightly helpless voice sounded: "Just wait, we will definitely do it after a while."
"My lord, just deal with this slave. Anyway, this slave is just a cheap person, so it's not worth bothering a noble person like you!"
Shen Qingqing burst out of the door crying, entered the next room and never came out again.
Onlooker Zhiyi was dumbfounded, "She, she is so awesome." It would be a pity not to act.
Gu Jiali rubbed the center of his brows, feeling a little irritated, "Assign a few people to protect her. You can go out as well. I need to rest."
Zhiyi looked away, smiled and gave him a thumbs up, "Sir, your acting skills are not bad either!"
Gu Jiali gave him a sharp look in return.
Everything that happened in Beiyuan reached Qi Sheng's ears.
After listening to his subordinate's report, Qi Sheng smiled proudly, "Gu Jiali, you really didn't disappoint me."
No matter how hard the background is, no matter how capable you are, if you just ignore the truth and don't know how to be flexible, you still won't get things done!
The next morning, Shen Qingqing came early to kowtow outside Qisheng's dormitory hall as planned.
Qi Sheng was still happy about what happened last night. When she heard the noise, she was immediately invited in, with a warm smile on her face when she spoke.
"It's been a night, have you figured it out?"
Shen Qingqing nodded solemnly, "I understand, as long as the prince can help the slave's parents redress their grievances, the slave is willing to stay in the palace and work for the prince to repay his kindness."
"There is no need to be a cow or a horse. You only need to answer a few questions from me."
I have been acting for so long and finally got to the point.
Shen Qingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered her body and replied respectfully: "You ask."
"Why did Gu Jiali come to Xiangcheng?"
"He is here to investigate the case of a fire in the Xiangcheng prison room that everyone outside is spreading."
"Sure enough, I already know that little brat Gu Jiali has no good intentions!" Qi Sheng snorted coldly and said bitterly: "He really grew up eating sea water - Guan Yi is lenient, and there are so many cases in the capital that are not enough for him to worry about.
, I must interfere in my territory!"
Shen Qingqing pretended to be frightened, winced and took a step back.
Qi Sheng noticed her actions, suppressed his anger, and continued to ask: "Then what has he found now?"
Shen Qingqing shook her head, "Master Gu never tells this kind of thing to me, but..."
"But what?" Qi Sheng couldn't wait.
"But he seems to have a general direction of investigation." Halfway through, she suddenly changed the subject and said, "But this is all just my own imagination. I don't know if it is accurate."
Qi Sheng's interest was aroused and he pointed to the stool at his feet, "Sit down and tell me where you derived this conclusion."
Shen Qingqing stood up slowly with her skirt in hand and said carefully: "A few days ago, on our way to Xiangcheng, Mr. Gu met a man. When the slaves went to deliver food, they heard them talking about Taoist priests.
General, words like harming people."
"Taoist...general..." Qi Sheng repeated those two words, his eyes gloomy and his expression unclear.
After a long time, he suddenly raised his head and asked in a cold voice: "Did you hear the name of the person they were talking about?"
Shen Qingqing thought: Of course I heard it, but I can’t say it now.
Fish must be fished slowly to take the bait. Being too hasty will only scare the snake away.
She shook her head in confusion, "The slaves went out after delivering the food. I didn't hear them mention their names."
"Then do you know who the man talking to Gu Jiali is?"
Shen Qingqing shook her head again, "I don't know him. He wears a silver mask on his face. He is very tall and looks to be in his early twenties, quite young."
With such an obvious reminder, Qi Sheng quickly guessed the identity of the man. He unconsciously tightened his palms and asked, "Does that man still hold a folding fan with a handle in his hand? The fan is also made of silver."
"Well, it's a folding fan with a handle."
Now it was Qi Sheng's turn to be confused. If the people in the capital really noticed that he had second thoughts, they should send some reckless men like Zhao Ying and the entire Zhaixing Pavilion. What would they do?
Could it be that you really came here for Chen Bitian?
He was very blocked in his heart, half of it was fear, and the rest was all anger.
Since Chen Bitian entered the palace, he has not brought him any benefits, but has caused a lot of trouble, and this time he has brought in Gu Jiali, a troublemaker.
If things continue like this, before he can lead his troops to start a rebellion, his hometown will be taken over first!
"No." Qi Sheng took a deep breath and turned his attention to Shen Qingqing again, "Help me do something more and find a way to find out the conversation between Gu Jiali and that man."
"This... Mr. Gu is so smart and cautious, how could he tell this slave?" Shen Qingqing looked confused.
"I believe you can do it." Qi Sheng looked at her steadily, "Gu Jiali has never been close to women, but he is willing to keep you by his side and protect you in every possible way, which shows that you are a little different in his heart."
"This difference is the key to your cliché." He leaned slightly and whispered: "Men can't resist two temptations, one is beauty, and the other is wine. Make good use of your beautiful face.
The king is waiting for your good news."
Shen Qingqing lowered her head and said nothing. After hesitating for a long time, she finally made up her mind and summoned up the courage to raise her head and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try."
"Very good, go ahead." Qi Sheng patted her shoulder.
After leaving the main hall, without the surveillance of those eyes, Shen Qingqing irritably beat her knees until they were sore. She was so tired from acting.
Thinking about the drama I have to perform next, I feel even more tired! This chapter has been completed!
