Chapter 267

an inside thief

"What are you doing?" Song Shuqi's eyes flashed cold light. Slowly close, eyes fixed on the scroll, a hand over, open to see that it is her portrait.

Two days ago, shangguanjin was at home recovering from her injuries. She was always shouting about boredom. She painted for her when she had nothing to do. The woman was vividly portrayed as a real person.

"Why did you steal this?"

The servant girl fell down on her knees with a plop and said, "I was in a daze for a while, so I stole something. Please forgive me."

This person Gu left and right to talk about him, did not answer directly, song Shuqi will never allow her to escape, word by word way: "why do you want to steal?"

The maid faltered and could not speak.

"If you don't, I'll sell you." Song Shuqi threatened,

Can be surprised to find that this servant girl is not afraid, even faintly relieved.

She squinted. "Who sent you?"

The servant girl clenched her teeth and said nothing.

Song Shuqi knew that she couldn't ask, and she didn't ask any more. She waved her hand: "take her down, imprison her, and don't let anyone get close to her."

"Yes." Bi trace calls two old women to come in outside the door and drags the servant girl out. Unexpectedly, the servant girl struggles all of a sudden.

As she struggled, a letter fell out of her arms.

Song Shuqi waved her hand slightly, and the two women pulled the servant girl aside. The servant girl was very worried, and seemed to want to pick up the letter.

But the old lady's strength is very big, and she is not honest. She simply presses her shoulder and can't move.

Song Shuqi picked up the envelope and opened it. At first, she thought it was a letter, but it was not a letter, but a piece of rice paper.

The pattern on it made her very familiar. It was the picture and text she copied from the brush wash and jade pendant.

"That's what you're going to steal." Song Shuqi said this carefully

Looking at the maid's face, it was easy to see a trace of tension flashed on her face.

She picked an eyebrow: "don't say?"

The servant girl clenched her teeth and said nothing.

Song Shuqi pondered for a moment and said, "take her down."

The servant girl was quickly pulled down. Song Shuqi called Lu Rong in again and told him to check the servant girl's life experience and who else was in the family.

Lu Rongying should.

Song Shuqi waves her servants away and looks at the picture and text. What's the use of this thing?

Why did someone steal it?

She closed her eyes and thought for a long time.

About an hour later, Lu Rong came back. As soon as he entered the room, he said, "Miss, that servant girl has a father and daughter, and a younger brother."

Song Shuqi nodded slightly: "have you got the keepsake?"

"Got it." Lu Rong took out a jade pendant from his arms. It was inferior, but it was valuable for a servant girl. Song Shuqi played with the jade pendant, and her eyes sank slightly: "is her family rich?"

"Ordinary farmers." Lu rongdun, said: "but his family are well dressed, this jade pendant is from her brother."

Song Shuqi did not say anything, holding the jade pendant, said: "bring that servant girl in."

Soon, Lu Rong and Bi Chen bring the servant girl. The servant girl keeps her eyes down and kneels on the ground as soon as she enters the room.

Song Shuqi raised her eyes and glanced at her: "this letter and that painting, if no one instructs me, I don't believe it. Do you want to tell the truth?"

The servant girl drooped her head: "it's really a mystery to me. It has nothing to do with others. I don't know what to tell the truth."

"Stubborn." Song Shuqi raised her hand and threw the jade pendant on the ground,

Just in front of the servant girl, she subconsciously looked at it, and her face suddenly changed. She scrambled to grab the jade pendant in her hand.

"Where did the second lady of the jade pendant come from?"

Song Shuqi: what do you think

She had a pretty smile, but the servant girl felt scared from the smile and held the jade pendant tightly. The palm of her hand hurt, and she didn't seem to notice.

She swallowed saliva. When she spoke again, her voice was hoarse: "please don't embarrass my family. They are all innocent."

"It depends on you." Song Shuqi hooked her lips: "if you tell the truth,

To my satisfaction, this jade pendant naturally returns to Zhao, but... "

The voice stopped, but the servant girl was more nervous, and her feet rang out gently. The cherry pink skirt swayed in front of her eyes, and her heart couldn't calm down.

"You know what I mean." Song Shuqi slowly leaned over her and stood in front of her

Ear whispered: "don't be afraid, as long as you tell the truth, I won't embarrass you."

She stretched out her hand to help the servant girl up. She felt her arm tremble slightly and said with a smile: "I'm not a monster. What are you afraid of?"

The servant girl was holding the jade pendant in her hand. She stood still for a moment, miserable

With a smile: "the second young lady is really powerful."

Song Shuqi knew that this was a compromise. She could not deny it. She picked her eyebrows and turned back to the table to sit down: "let's talk."

"A few days ago, someone gave me a bag of silver to watch your every move and steal the pictures and pictures."

"Who is that man?" Song Shuqi asked.

The servant girl shook her head: "I don't know."

"You're not going to say it, are you?" Bichen pinched his waist, bared his teeth and said, "I tell you, if you don't say it, be careful to implicate your family!"

The servant girl said with a white face: "I really don't know. I didn't lie. At that time, it was dark and the man was masked. Later, every time I came to see him, it was night. I couldn't see his face clearly."

"If you lie..."

"I dare not." Without waiting for song Shuqi to finish, the servant girl shook her head and said with a wry smile: "the life of my family is in the hands of the second young lady. How dare I lie?" Song Shuqi looked at her for a long time. She looked uneasy and uneasy in her heart. Then she said, "take her down."

The servant girl was taken down. After a while, shangguanjin came back, and song Shuqi said it. The more he listened, the worse he looked: "how can you break in by yourself? If she wants to hurt you, you... "

At the thought of this possibility, he was afraid.

Song Shuqi didn't think so much about it, so she felt guilty: "OK, I'll take a look

I was anxious to catch her, so... "

Her attitude is very good, Shangguan Jinyi used to be soft hearted to her, sighed: "next time there is such a thing, you let Lu Rong in, remember?"

"I see." Song Shuqi nodded obediently.

Shangguanjin looked at her for a long time, can't help itching and pinching her nose tip: "you are rare to be so clever, you can see that you know you are wrong."

Song Shuqi's eyes dodged and did not look at him.

But this pair of careful virtual appearance, Shangguan brocade instead feel more lovely, can't help but get up to kiss for a while, and then zazazui: "sweet."

Song Shuqi covered her cheek, glared at him and patted him on the arm.

"Oh, pain..." Shangguan brocade immediately covered his arm, a face of pain unbearable: "lady, you are so cruel, actually hit my wound."

Song Shuqi raised her eyebrows: "does it hurt?"

"It hurts!" Shangguanjin nodded pitifully.

Song Shuqi was speechless. She looked at his right arm and said, "you hurt your left arm. What's the pain in your right arm?"

Shangguanjin quickly covered his left arm.

She finally couldn't help laughing: "well, stop it. I have business to tell you."

Shangguanjin touched the tip of his nose: "what's the matter?"

Song Shuqi took out the two pictures and put them on the table

What's so strange about the two pictures? I can't figure out why anyone wants to steal it. "

"This picture..." Shangguan brocade looked at it carefully for a long time, and what was in his mind was ready to come out, but he couldn't think of it for a moment. He said thoughtfully: "it seems strange."

Song Shuqi sat beside him, looking at him: "what do you see?"

"It's a little strange." Shangguanjin repeated that sentence, looked at it for a while, then moved one of them to the top of another picture, and then put the two pictures together again.

His lips slightly hook: "right!"

"What's right?"

Shangguanjin moved the two maps and changed an angle: "if you look at them like this again, do they look like topographic maps together?"

Song Shuqi's finger fell on the route and her eyes lit up: "it's really a topographic map."

They look at each other and smile at each other.

But then a new question came. Song Shuqi asked, "where is the topographic map?" Shangguanjin shook his head: "I don't know, but this topographic map must be very important, otherwise no one would bother to steal it."

Song Shuqi held her chin and nodded.

"Put it away." Shangguanjin folded the two pictures and handed them to her, exhorting

"Be careful this time. Don't let others steal it."

"Well." Holding the map, song Shuqi felt as if she was holding a hot potato. She turned around the room to see where to hide.

This matter, outside suddenly rings out a scream!

Song Shuqi was startled. The topographic map in her hand almost fell to the ground. She pinched it tightly, and her face turned white: "it's the sound of bihen."

"You wait in the room, I'll go out and have a look," shangguanjin got up and strode out.

Where did song Shuqi wait? She hurriedly stuffed the map into her skirt,

Carrying the skirt, small steps catch up.

"How did you get out?" Shangguanjin heard the footsteps behind her, turned to see her, quickly stopped her: "I don't know what the danger is, you don't go."

But song Shuqi insisted: "no, I don't trust Bichen. I just came out two days ago

No more accidents at the moment. "

Shangguan brocade is really no way, had to compromise: "you have to follow, but you must follow me, don't be impulsive."

"Good." Song Shuqi nodded.

They don't talk much any more. They go to the Chaifang quickly.

The door of the firewood room was wide open. Bichen was lying at the door and didn't move. He didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Song Shuqi's heart clapped, subconsciously to go forward, shangguanjin stopped her: "you wait here, I'll have a look."

But song Shuqi is really worried. She can't bear it, so she rushes to Bichen. After checking, she sees that Bichen is just in a coma and has no worries about her life.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and then she thought of looking up at the Chaifang. As soon as she saw the scene inside, she was in the same place.
