Chapter 70: Telling the Truth and Falsely Bluffing Whom
"Medicinal herbs?! What herbs? There was a man in the group of bandits with a particularly fierce expression, with a long scar on his face, and he was not afraid of the guards of Shufu, his eyes glared at Lin Mei coldly, and he snorted fiercely, "Uncle is here to steal gold!" Uncle Ben doesn't know anything about what you're talking about! ”
Lin Mei was surprised, holding her wildly beating little liver and pretending to ask calmly, "Stealing gold?" It's strange, this house is a warehouse specially used to store medicinal materials and sundries in Shufu, and you actually came here to steal gold? ”
"Hmph, needless to say, since we have been arrested by you, we are also incompetent, whether we are dead or alive is at your disposal!" The eldest of them all, with a small beard and slightly curly hair, looked very strange, and even his accent was very different from that of ordinary people.
"That's right! It's the words of the big brother! The other three also echoed sharply when they heard this, and their momentum was quite bloody, "It's because our skills are not as good as others, you can dispose of it!" ”
The corners of Lin Mei's mouth twitched, and her right hand, which was still trembling slightly, couldn't help but stiffen, where did these four living treasures come from? According to the law of this dynasty, the sin of stealing is not unto death if it is less than a thousand taels of silver, and they cry out and shout to kill before they succeed in stealing......
"Shut up." Qingying frowned, and was also quite distressed about these four people, and said coldly, "If I ask, you will answer, if you don't answer, then I have the means to clean you up." ”
Qingying was born in the General's Mansion, and she has seen countless tortures of coercion, plus she has always been cold-faced, forced by power, few people do not answer under her coercion.
It's just that the four of them obviously didn't eat this, and when they heard Qingying's words, they became even more angry, as if Qingying had done something insulting to them, they all panted and shouted loudly with red faces, "Uncle Ben is not afraid of you!" To kill or to chop? How can a manly man succumb to the hands of a woman! ”
“…… Okay, we didn't want to torture you or anything, we just wanted to ask you something, and when the time came, we let you go. Lin Mei couldn't laugh or cry when she heard their words, and said helplessly.
The middle-aged man at the head didn't believe it, tightened a pair of thick eyebrows, and asked in a deep voice, "It's that simple?" ”
"That's right, it's that simple, and we don't want to see blood." Lin Mei nodded with a smile, and put down her right hand that had been covering her careful liver, looking like a good bully.
Qingying glanced at Lin Mei in surprise, she has always believed in doing things toughly, so she has provoked many enemies, especially after the General's Mansion was sealed, if she hadn't met Shu Wangjin, Qingying's temper would have been killed and blasted out of the mansion by the master above.
The middle-aged man pondered for a while, and after staring at each other with the other three men, he spoke, "Our brother only came to the capital last night, but I didn't expect to be caught by you for the first time, and we ourselves were too unlucky!" ”
"You only arrived last night?" Lin Mei raised her voice and asked, quite puzzled, if this group of people only arrived in the capital last night, then who did the theft a few days ago?
"That's right, last night when a few of us first arrived in the capital, drinking in the restaurant, we were about to discuss making a big deal, and someone next to us was whispering about the fact that there was a large amount of gold in the Shujia warehouse in the west of the city...... As soon as I came in, I was tied up by these guards! Speaking of this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh secretly, lamenting in his heart that the time was not good.
Lin Mei and Qingying glanced at each other, both puzzled, so it was really not them who came here to steal medicinal materials a few days ago? However, in that case, who is talking about the fact that there is gold in the Shu family's warehouse? There is always only medicinal herbs and sundries stored here, and there is no gold!
"Is that what you heard that day? If so, do you remember what those people looked like? Qingying asked coldly, but he was skeptical of their words.
Those few people were very disgusted by Qingying's cold words, raised their heads and snorted coldly and stopped answering.
Lin Mei took a step forward and said slowly, "If you really didn't lie, we will naturally let you go after we investigate the facts, so I hope you can tell the truth." ”
The middle-aged man pursed his lips and looked at Lin Mei silently, as if considering the truth in her words.
"You don't believe me? There's no way to do it......" Lin Mei smiled suddenly, looking more bright and charming, "But, if you're lying, I think it's not impossible to try the torture you said......
The faces of the four of them suddenly became ugly, as if they couldn't imagine what cruel things such a beautiful girl would do.
"I'm joking, you don't have to take it ......seriously," Lin Mei covered her lips and smiled, seeing that they all showed a relaxed expression, she chuckled again, and added, "However, the girl next to me is murderous without blinking, if you dare to lie to her, I dare not guarantee that you will have the life to go outside to eat and drink again......"
Qingying's expression suddenly changed subtly, but he didn't say anything, just stood there coldly, emitting a breath of "don't disturb the living".
The four of them were not used to seeing Qingying's cold and cold appearance, but now when they heard Lin Mei say this, they couldn't help but look at her a few more times, but they didn't necessarily feel too frightened, they just pouted and said with disgust, "A woman's family should stay at home and embroider without leaving the house, and you must know that she is gentle and virtuous, just like her, how can she marry in the future?" The four of us wouldn't want it! ”
Qingying's expression changed fiercely when she heard this, she raised her head and glared at the man with a scar on his face who said this, and took out a dagger from his narrow sleeve and put it against the man's neck, and said coldly, "If you say one more word, I will really kill you." ”
Seeing this scene, Lin Mei couldn't help but take a small step back in fright, no matter how ridiculous and playful she was, she really didn't dare to start talking about this kind of murder.
"Miss Lin, these people are so stubborn, just leave it to me to dispose of, anyway, that batch of medicinal materials has already been secretly transported to the Tai Hospital, and there is no need to lie about it." Qingying said coldly, and her eyebrows, which were not very gentle, now looked even more eerie.
"That's fine, there is no report to the left and right, who can suspect us if we really kill a few people?" Lin Mei thought that Qingying was just scaring those people, so she nodded with a smile and wiped her hands with a brocade hand, "Besides, the people here today are all loyal subordinates of the Shu family, and I don't think they will go to the snitch, right?" ”
