067: Coffin (Thanks to the cute main girl Gao Mei +8)
"Mr. Shen, no, Madam of the Shen family, do you have anything else to say?"
Shen Tang was stunned on the spot.
My mind and mind were completely empty.
I never expected that Mr. Gu would notice it first.
but--
She felt like she could still struggle.
"The eldest lady of the Shen family? Mr. Gu thinks I am a woman? A woman with a Wenxin monogram? Don't you think this story is too absurd? Even ordinary people would not dare to make it up like this!"
Before she had accumulated enough strength, a woman who was recognized as incapable of being literary and courageous had a literary heart. Whether she was regarded as a model of curiosity or as an ominous sign, it was a disaster for her. Be prayed for. It didn't matter if a few of them knew. She didn't hide it anyway. She even speculated when they would discover the truth, but this Mr. Gu in front of her couldn't.
If he knew——
Shen Tang can only send him a sword, and he will die early and be reborn!
Mr. Gu smiled calmly while stroking his fan and took a sip of Lanling wine: "Absurd? Before the Thief Star came into the world, who knew that there would be literary minds and bravery, and verbal and written criticism would become reality? What will happen in this absurd world? Bizarre incidents are not considered absurd.”
Shen Tang said with a cold face: "Mr. Gu, you admitted your mistake."
Mr. Gu pointed at the dancer who was kicked so hard that she still couldn't recover: "Do you know why this person only has one ear?"
"Not interested in knowing."
"She tried to murder you during the distribution, but you managed to get away smoothly with your words. The escorting officer misunderstood her as your accomplice. There was one missing person who couldn't explain to the person in charge of Xiaocheng, so he cut off one of her The ear pretended to be your place. Therefore, during the previous investigation, I received the news that the eldest lady of the Shen family was deceased. Do you think what I said is correct or not?"
Shen Tang had no expression on his face: "That's nonsense."
However, Mr. Gu softened his expression and continued to induce: "Don't be so vigilant, I don't mean any harm. You are the most interesting person I have met in all these years. If you are the eldest lady of the Shen family, you and I have no conflict of interest. What's the reason against you?"
Shen Tang sneered coldly: "I know that literary people are often jealous, and the more they claim to be smart, the more suspicion they will have and the more drama they will cause. You can claim that I am the eldest daughter of the Shen family based on just a 'dowry' in your mouth. You Why go to all this trouble? As soon as you take off your clothes, don’t you already know everything? Guessing here is really boring and a waste of time.”
The blade of the sword in his hand was pressed against his neck.
"Mr. Gu, do you have the guts to make a bet with me?"
"What to bet on?"
Shen Tang didn't talk about the content of the bet. She first talked about the bet, with a chilling cold look on her face, word by word like a judge whispering in her ear: "If I win the bet, I want your head on your head."
"What if I win?"
"If Mr. Gu wins, you can come and take my life if you can. However, this may not seem like a big deal, after all, the person with the sword hanging from his neck is Mr. Gu, not me." Shen Tang smiled slightly, "I have something to do. I’m confused, sir, can you please clarify?”
Mr. Gu's eyelids trembled: "You ask."
"Actually, your mind reading is not a word spirit at all, but your 'Scribe's Way', right? Does that old man know that?"
Eavesdropping on people's voices and "the way of scribes" on mind-reading are two completely different concepts. The former is just a compulsory course that every counselor must take, while the latter is a cancer that everyone is afraid of.
Mr. Gu: "..."
His face, which had not changed even with the sword hanging on his neck, was now livid, with red threads starting from the end of his eyes and almost covering the entire eye socket. Looking at this expression, Shen Tang had hit upon the truth.
"Before you and I make a bet, I have to settle an old score."
She threw the sword behind her without looking back.
With a thud, the long sword sank into the wooden floor.
Just in time to stop the dancer who was covering her shoulders and trying to sneak away, the other musicians had already been frightened by the incident and fled.
"where did you go?"
Shen Tang stood up and looked back, approaching the dancer with a faint smile.
She took a step closer, and the dancer took a step back with her hands on the ground. The hatred that wanted to tear Shen Tang's face apart had long been replaced by fear. The grudges on the road to distribution came to mind, and she trembled and shook her head and begged for mercy: "You, please let go. Pass me, I was wrong——"
Shen Tang tilted his head: "You said you were wrong?"
"Yes, yes, yes, yes -" Nodding like a pound of garlic.
"Apologies spoken after causing harm are stinkers than maggots in a manhole. Are you the dowry of the eldest wife of the Shen family? It's ridiculous! Then how can you hurt others?"
When the dancer heard this, her anger temporarily overshadowed her fear.
She raised her voice and said: "Why not? Why are you questioning me? Do you really think you are from a noble family? You are not a lady! You are just a fool, a lunatic with no origin! You, you can speak the spirit, you It’s actually a man?”
After a pause, she cleared away her guilty conscience and said confidently: "So what if I am a dowry? If Mrs. Shen hadn't married the Gong family, I would not have been implicated in selling out and being inferior to others..."
The experience of more than a month on the road to distribution was a nightmare!
She held her head in pain, memories flashing through her mind.
What followed was a roar full of hatred.
She dreamed about it at midnight and wanted to bite off the flesh and blood of the eldest lady of the Shen family and swallow it. The Shen family was destroyed by the Yi clan, and it was the Shen clan that was destroyed. What does it have to do with a servant like her?
If she hadn't married into the Gong family, she wouldn't have experienced this!
Why can't she take revenge?
Besides, she was just taking revenge on a fool.
She is not the real eldest daughter of the Shen family.
Did she do anything wrong?
Shen Tang: "...???"
Mr. Gu, who thought he had a chance to win: "...???"
The air in the private room was quiet except for the fearful and rough breathing of the dancers.
Shen Tang rubbed his swollen temples, sighed and asked Mr. Gu: "Sir, are you still participating in the bet just now?"
Mr. Gu was bored: "No."
Shen Tang: "I think so, then forget it."
What kind of nonsense is this? (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Mr. Gu stood up, pointed at Shen Tang and asked the dancer: "Since the person framed by you on the way to the marriage is Mr. Shen, and he escaped successfully, where has the real eldest lady of the Shen family gone?"
Shen Tang: "..."
Good guy!
She has become Shen Lang again, and a scholar can change his face faster than he can turn over a book.
Mr. Gu listened to Guer's order and conducted an in-depth investigation of Shen Tang's identity. In addition to the necessary surveillance, he also naturally traced the origin. He personally came to the workshop, endured his headache, and heard the dancer's inner thoughts from countless noisy voices. A lot of words were said.
Who knows, there might still be a misunderstanding.
Shen Tang was indeed assigned to the team in the Gong family, and she also wore the name of the eldest lady of the Shen family, but she was disguised as a woman, suspected of playing a mentally ill person, so she was angered and retaliated by the accompanying dancers. In the end, Shen Lang seized the opportunity, He escaped smoothly and came to Xiaocheng.
The logic does make sense.
The dancer refused to cooperate in the answer.
Shen Tang put the sword to her throat and pulled out a streak of blood.
"explain!"
The dancer collapsed under the pressure of murderous intent and revealed what she knew.
The eldest lady of the Shen family disappeared before getting married and her whereabouts were unknown. Then Shen Tang appeared. Everyone said that the eldest lady Shen accidentally fell into the water and hit her head. She was stupid and confused.
As the wedding day approached, the matter was put aside.
Outsiders don't know it, but how can the personal attendant not recognize it?
As for Shen Tang——
The dancer trembled and said: "The coffin..."
Mr. Gu didn't hear clearly: "What?"
"I heard from the servant who was looking at the corner door in the backyard that one night a very strange coffin was brought back. The person lying inside looked exactly like Mrs. Shen. If she dressed up, she would look exactly like her."

Chapter 3, hehe(#^.^#)
Thank you everyone. I looked at the data and it seems that the first subscription of the monthly pass and the rewards are enough.
However, in the first month after the new book is put on the shelves, Shiitake still has to compete for the new book monthly ticket list in order to achieve later results. After so many years of writing books, he has never won the first place for new books???
