Chapter 017: Something Wrong
Shen Xin looked at it fixedly, and his heart couldn't help but jerk violently! That Yongmei poem? Isn't what was written on this paper exactly the Yongmei poem that Shen Xi asked her to pick up before?
How did he-
She hurriedly glanced at his expression, and saw that although he hadn't shown it, the anger in his eyes was obvious under this calm!
Did he find out?
She swallowed and said, "Some impressions." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"So where is it now?" Shen Ruopu put the paper back on the table, and the words he spat out made people feel that his patience was running out. He is the second-in-command of the Criminal Department, and he has tried many cases, although he doesn't really deserve to be discerning, but her expression just now does mean something!
Shen Xin didn't know why he was so angry?
What she took away was just an old poem written by Zhang's ordinary predecessors, and it wasn't something important, how could he be so angry?
"Let me ask you, where is that poem!" Shen Ruopu slapped the table and roared, his voice shook so loudly that even the walls seemed to move, "That's a secret order from the emperor to the Criminal Department, if you lose it, don't want to mix it up with our Shen family! Where did you take it, go and get it back for me quickly! If you can't get it back, I'll break your hands and legs first!"
A three-inch square inkstone on the table was smashed on the ground in front of her, Shen Xin took two steps back, and his body shook and almost fell to the ground!
The secret order of the Holy Lord?
How is this possible?!
It's obviously an old poem that no one will take seriously if it is thrown on the table, so how can it be a secret order of the emperor!
She quickly came back to her senses to look at Shen Ruopu, only to see that Su Ri's always cold and serious face was only full of anger at the moment, and this could no longer be faked! No wonder he would be so excited, there was no need for him to force her for an unimportant object! But now that the secret order has been taken by Shen Xi, where will she go to get it and return it to him!
She swallowed with difficulty, clenching her trembling fingers.
She never expected that the joy of getting the porcelain pillow had not passed, and such a disaster would be ushered in immediately!
If Shen Ruopu loses her official position, then what else will she talk about letting Shen Chongyi return to Beijing, and what will she talk about seeking a good future for herself?
What's more, this matter can't be concealed no matter what, even if she doesn't say Shen Xi and doesn't say it, she can't pick it out anyway! Shen Ruopu can find her over and question her, he must know that she is the most suspicious, if he can't find it, he will definitely keep putting pressure on her, -- how could it be such an important thing that Shen Xi asked her to take!
Her hands were tightly twisted together, as if she was pinching Shen Xi's flesh and skin.
"Where the hell is it?"
Shen Ruopu's roar rang in her ears again.
She retreated to the door, her back against the frame, her face pale.
The paper is in Shen Xi's hand, it is true that she will be fine as long as she explains her whereabouts, but can she say it? If she does, she will not be able to hide the matter of forcing the second room to hand over the porcelain pillow, not to mention what evidence does she have to prove that the poem was what she Shen Xi asked her to take? Will Shen Ruopu believe it? Shen Xi is obviously a straw bag that the city government does not have at all, how can he believe it!
is to force her, now that the movement on Wanrongtang's side has already spread, if Shen Xi knew that this thing was so important, would she still admit it?
Even if she is stupid, the Pei family and the maids around her are not so stupid, they will never allow her to admit it!
"I didn't take it, I don't know what Yongmei poem ......"
She quickly steadied herself and tried her best. "I really didn't take it, although I have seen it, but there is nothing peculiar about that poem, I can memorize it, how can I take it?"
Shen Ruopu gritted his teeth and glared at her, his back molars had been ground to sour.
But no matter how angry and hateful she is, what she said is not unreasonable, in the eyes of others, it is indeed just an ordinary ancient poem, if anyone can see its peculiarity, what kind of secret order can be talked about? Shen Xin does not understand this, he dares to say that not to mention a boudoir woman, even a child of a family in the middle of the court, there may not be many people who understand.
Because this thing is inconspicuous, the secrecy is good.
In that case, she really couldn't take it.
But if she didn't take it, who would have taken it?
He stayed in the study almost all the time, and he had always placed the things in his hand in an orderly manner, and he couldn't find them after turning through them so many times, if someone hadn't deliberately taken them, would it have flown away by itself?!
He looked at the trembling people in the room, and the chagrin and anxiety in his heart turned into anger again!
"Get out!"
He raised his hand and smashed a few books in his hand.
Both those who were hit and those who weren't were scattered one after another.
Shen Xin withdrew from the crowd and fled out of the upper room all the way out of the corridor in a panic.
It wasn't until he arrived at the uninhabited courtyard that he seemed to have regained his soul, and since he beat Shen Zhengxin because of that incident, Shen Ruopu has never been angry like this anymore, but the anxiety and anger in his eyes just now is not fake, it makes her believe that as long as she stays in the study for a few more moments, she will definitely be scolded by him!
She stood intently under the porch for a moment, then pulled her legs and rushed towards the incense courtyard.
With such a big movement in the upper room, the maid who went with her naturally came back to report to the Huang family.
Huang could hear it clearly this time, and it was not as she expected before, it was indeed the poem that Shen Xi asked Shen Xin to pick up had a problem, and she was full of horror in her heart, and here Shen Xin had already rushed in with a gust of wind!
"Mother, something is wrong!"
Shen Xin rushed to her, still trembling, after all, it was the emperor's secret order, and what she saw was also a Shen Ruopu who she had never seen at all and did not leave any affection! She privately took Shen Ruopu's poems and essays for a small matter, but it was a big matter for the important matter of the imperial court, if Shen Ruopu was held accountable, she would definitely not have good fruits to eat!
"What's going on?" Huang Shi saw her like this, and his heart became more and more at a loss, it is said that this matter has come to fruition from beginning to end, that is, Shen Xi's eyes are red with Shen Ruopu's poems, and there is nothing strange about taking the opportunity to let Shen Xin take it, how can something that seems flawless has such a big mistake?
"The Yongmei poem that Shen Xi asked me to go to the old lady's room to get is a secret order given to him by the emperor!"
Shen Xin clenched her hands tightly, and told everything about Fang Cai in one breath, his face was pale under the lamp: "You haven't seen the appearance of the old lady Fang Cai, several people around him who have to be used have been injured, and said that if I can't hand it over, he will break my hands and legs!"
Those who can get in and out of Shen Ruopu's room are naturally people he can trust, even they have been beaten, who else can escape?
Huang held his breath for a while, and hurriedly comforted her with a white face: "Don't be afraid, aren't you already back?
"How can it be so simple?!"
Shen Xin sat up stiffly, "That's a secret order from the saints! Even if it's just an ordinary official instruction, once it's lost, then the old lady will inevitably have to take the blame! If he carries the blame, no matter whether he is reprimanded in front of the saint and the queen mother, there will definitely be a strict trial in the house! What if the first instance comes out of me at that time?"
