244. That's a tempering for you

When Mingyue, Xiaoyao Wang and Zhang Sheng came over the Scarlet Garden with the people of the Mo family, Gu Fei was playing on his own.

She put a chessboard under the shade of the tree, dressed in simple white clothes, loosely curled her hair, took the white seeds with her eyes half-closed, and slowly fell, hearing the movement, she made a move, and then put down the chess pieces, combed the hair that did not hang down obediently on the sideburns, and said softly, "I don't know that His Highness and the prince are coming, and the people are afraid, please forgive me." ”

Mingyue waved her hand, her face was positive, and she led Zhang Sheng to say, "Ancient Holy Master, this is Master Zhang of the Criminal Department, I want to ask the Holy Master a few words." ”

Apricot eyes and smoke flowed, Gu Fei didn't look at King Xiaoyao, her eyes fell on Zhang Sheng and said, "I've seen Master Zhang." ”

Zhang Sheng wiped his mustache, put one hand behind his back and said, "I heard that the blood rouge ink pills sold in the Mo family shop now, the formula is from the hands of the ancient saint master?" ”

Gu Fei nodded, there was nothing to hide, she replied while motioning to the nightingale to move the brocade and serve tea, "Yes, the blood rouge formula is indeed the little woman's silent gift to the third son of the Mo family." ”

Zhang Sheng frowned, "Did the Holy Master come up with this recipe alone?" ”

Gu Fei chuckled, her apricot eyes were crooked, and there were gilded dots of light under the shade of the trees that fell on her plain white face, making her more and more peaceful, "Lord Zhang said and laughed, the little woman is not so capable, the formula of blood rouge is pondered by the folk girl on the ancient recipe of the Mo family, and there are not too many changes, but the excipients in it are changed, so that the ink pills made have a long ink fragrance." ”

Zhang Sheng groaned, and he glanced at Mingyue, who was sitting on the side without saying a word. I looked at the King of Joy who came over to join in the fun, and suddenly felt hot.

Gu Fei took in her look, and she glanced at the egret. "Lord Zhang, that ancient recipe is now in the little woman's study, you can give the adults a look, and the recipe of the blood rouge, the little woman can also say it all."

Hearing this, Zhang Sheng also felt that it was better to take a look first.

"But," Gu Fei paused. watched the egret enter the study, and then saw that he was escorted by the yacha and followed. The Mo family, who had a bad complexion, asked, "I don't know, what does Master Zhang mean by this?" ”

"Someone in Dajing has been poisoned," Mingyue began. After snatching Zhang Sheng's words, he looked at Gu Fei with burning eyes, "The poisoned people are all poisoned because they bought blood rouge." ”

Gu Fei was stunned for a moment, then her brows furrowed, and she vetoed without thinking about it, "Impossible, if it is made according to the formula, there will be no problem." ”

"According to the recipe?" Zhang Shengxiang was reminded. He muttered a repetition that didn't mean much.

At this time, the egret came with pen and ink and a thin scroll. Gu Fei took it, opened the scroll first, pointed to one of the pages and said, "My lord, please see, this is the recipe." ”

After that, the egret grinds. She took the pen and brushed it a few times. silently wrote his perfected blood rouge formula on the white paper, "This is the formula that the little woman has changed, that is, the blood rouge formula." ”

Zhang Sheng compared the two sides, and sure enough, there was only a slight change in the ink, and it was the same as the formula that Mo San Gongzi took out.

Zhang Sheng was silent, he turned his hand and presented the scroll and formula to Mingyue and King Xiaoyao, and thought for a while, "Has the ancient saint master ever thought of replacing the pine smoke in this recipe with cinnabar and transforming it into colored ink?" ”

This is still a relatively euphemistic statement, and Zhang Sheng almost didn't ask directly.

Gu Fei sneered, "Is Master Zhang joking?" The little woman asked herself if she was not very proficient in medical science, but she still knew that it was best not to mix dansha with realgar alum in excess, and the formula of this blood rouge clearly contained realgar and alum, how could the little woman use cinnabar instead of pine smoke! ”

Zhang Sheng's face had sunk.

Gu Fei continued, "And the pine smoke to make ink and use cinnabar to make ink, the two skills are not the same, pine smoke ink needs to be added to the melt glue, and cinnabar can not be forged, so if you want to use cinnabar to make color ink, it is another production method, this formula is white paper and black letters, clearly written pine smoke, not cinnabar." ”

As soon as these words fell, Zhang Sheng's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's falcon and looked at Mo San Gongzi, and said in an unfathomable manner, "But they all insisted that it was the ancient sage master who ordered the pine smoke to be replaced with cinnabar, saying that the blood rouge made from cinnabar is very good-looking, and it can be sold well." ”

Gu Fei was stunned, she sighed for a long time, and said expressionlessly, "In this case, Lord Zhang will check it, the little woman is doing the right thing, and whether you have seen these masters of the Mo family alone these days and ordered such words, there are traces to follow." ”

Speaking of this, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and the shadows of her eyelashes were as deep as an abyss, "The day the little woman handed over the formula to Mo Sangongzi, she also specially made a piece of pine smoke blood rouge for Mo Sangongzi to taste, and now this ink pill is still in the study, as for this cinnabar blood rouge, the little woman doesn't know at all, no one has ever bowed back and forth to me, in fact, in the past few days, the little woman has been wondering about one thing." ”

She drew circles on the armrests with the tips of her hands, again and again, "Even if Lord Zhang doesn't come to the door today, at the latest tomorrow, the little woman will also want to find Lord Zhang." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Sheng elongated the pronunciation of the characters.

"Little woman," as soon as Gu Scarlet's pink lips opened, she said the words that made several masters of the Mo family want to faint, "The silver vault at home was stolen, several days have passed, the patriarch has been investigating outside, and there has been no clue, and now the Mo family's silver vault is half a copper, and the little woman is still curious, a few days ago, several masters of the Mo family found the little woman, and said that they wanted to approve the slips to get silver to buy ink, without silver, the strips were naturally not approved, but where did the cart of ink come from in the ink library today?" ”

"Yes, the little woman wants to find Lord Zhang to report to the official." She shook it out lightly, not afraid of implicating herself at all.

Zhang Sheng was really angry, and even Mingyue was taken aback.

"Bastard, there is such a thing, isn't it impossible to prevent a thief?" Zhang Sheng shouted, he flicked his sleeves, turned his head to the Mo family and said, "A few of you, first deceived the official, but now, don't tell the truth quickly!" ”

"Adults spare their lives, it has nothing to do with us......"

"Adults spare ......"

"Adult, small wronged ......"

The master of the Mo family's several rooms, poofed a few times, and immediately knelt down, and the third son of Mo was even more miserable. I was really scared.

"Bring this official back to the Criminal Department and torture him severely!" Zhang Sheng spoke, but he didn't verify Gu Fei's statement at all. Even if it's believed.

"My lord, I have wronged ......"

"Adult ......"

The Mo family is still asking for mercy, but a few officials can stand up and drag people away without saying a word.

Right now—

"Slow down, sir!" Between the lightning and flint, the old lady Mo in a gray monk's robe was supported by the maidservant.

She stepped into the scarlet garden, her eyes swept away. Pushed away the maidservant and made a big salute. "The old man has seen His Royal Highness, the prince and Lord Zhang."

"The old lady quickly got up," Mingyue leaned over and raised her hand, "The old lady has an old relationship with the queen mother of this palace, so it doesn't have to be like this." ”

Old Madam Mo shook her head. There was no smile on his face, "Etiquette can't be wasted, naturally I still want it." ”

After speaking, she turned around and walked slowly in front of the masters of the Mo family, let go of the Buddha beads on her wrist, waved her hand a few times one after another, and unexpectedly slapped several people, and scolded, "The old body killed a few of you who are not angry......

"Old lady. Stop it! Zhang Sheng made a look, and immediately a messenger took the person away.

Old Madam Mo paused, and she took a few breaths. Stretching out his hand to straighten his sideburns, he lowered his sagging eyelids and said, "Regarding the theft of the silver vault, the old man has a few words to say. ”

"Old lady, but it doesn't hurt to say it." The corners of Mingyue's mouth brought a smile.

Hearing this, Old Madam Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and she picked up the Buddha beads. Twisted one by one, but his eyes were looking at Gu Fei. "Scarlet, the silver vault has not been stolen."

Gu Fei raised his eyes, showing his surprise appropriately, but secretly sneering.

Old Madam Mo continued, "Before, the old body and Changhe thought that you were still young, although they intended to let you succeed to the position of the patriarch of the Mo family, but the matter of holding the silver treasury was very important, so when you went to the summer banquet of His Royal Highness, the old body discussed with Changhe and changed the silver in the silver treasury. ”

Gu Fei rubbed the armrest, and the dark light in her eyes flashed for a moment, and she quickly frowned and asked, "But before, why did a few uncles come to Ah Fei to ask for silver?" ”

"That's a tempering for you," Old Madam Mo replied as soon as she opened her mouth, without pausing at all, it didn't seem like a lie at all, "The old body and Changhe also want to take a look, the current Scarlet is qualified to sit on the position of patriarch." ”

At this point, Old Madam Mo knew that she couldn't say more, and as soon as she changed the topic, she said to Zhang Sheng, "Lord Zhang, as for the poisoning of people by ink pills, if it is the fault of the sons of the old body, the old body will never protect it, so how to deal with it." ”

Zhang Sheng nodded, and then he looked embarrassed again, "It's easy to say that the poisoning is clear, if it is investigated, people have no worries about their lives, and they can be discussed afterwards, but the most difficult thing to do is that the beloved daughter of Lord Qin's family died violently because of this ink pill, and Lord Qin's family is very sad, and even said that they want the Mo family...... Cough...... Blood debt and blood repayment. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Mo was very surprised, and even Gu Fei was very surprised.

For a while, the Scarlet Garden was unusually quiet, and no one knew what to say.

Gu Fei turned his head to look at the King of Xiaoyao, only to see that the King of Xiaoyao was also looking at her, and raised his long eyebrows at her, with an uninhibited smile on his face.

Gu Fei retracted his gaze and knew that the King of Freedom who came over today was Yin Jiuhu, not You Hu.

Since that day, after she signed the marriage letter and let people go, You Hu has never been to Scarlet Garden.

"The matter has come to this," Old Madam Mo said almost with difficulty, "the old body is still like that, let the adults deal with it." ”

Mingyue didn't say much, Zhang Sheng knew in his heart, understood how to deal with the aftermath of this matter, and said, "Old lady don't have to worry, this official will not wronged anyone, and try to say a few good words with Captain Qin, I believe that Captain Qin is also reasonable, such an accident can't be blamed entirely on the Mo family." ”

Old Madam Mo seemed to want to pull out a smile, but it was more ugly than crying, as soon as she turned around, her face was gloomy as water, and there was a fierce light under her eyes that swept over Gu Fei's body.

Gu Fei naturally saw it, she raised her jaw, and she was extremely contemptuous.

At this point, the dust settled, Zhang Sheng wanted to take several masters of the Mo family back to the criminal department first, Mingyue didn't say that he wanted to leave together, but he didn't know that King Xiaoyao didn't mention the matter of leaving, Zhang Sheng smiled embarrassedly, and felt that the atmosphere was strange, so he bowed and said goodbye.

Gu Scarlet sent the nightingale out, and was about to send away the two old gods who were sitting in the courtyard together, when he heard the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard.

She rolled her eyes, but Zhang Sheng went and returned, with an anxious look on her face.

"Master Shengshi," there was a sharp voice that opened Zhang Sheng, but it was a big eunuch wearing a python suit, as soon as he spoke, he saw that Mingyue and King Xiaoyao were there, he was stunned for a moment, hurriedly saluted, and then said to Gu Fei, "Master Shengshi, hurry up, the emperor announced that you will enter the palace." ”

Gu Fei's heart sank, "Dare to ask my father-in-law, do you know what the so-called thing is?" ”

The eunuch's tone was anxious, so he almost dragged Gu Fei away without his own hands, "It's Concubine Wan who has an accident......
