Chapter 224: The Puppet
readx; "Shen Nineteen didn't tell the truth?" When Jiang Qing heard this, he looked at King An in disbelief. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
King An held the gold bottle in his hand, and after observing Jiang Qing intently, he was sure that he did not know. Fang Cai said with a smile: "Brother Jiang is upright, so naturally he won't think of the tricks. ”
"We're foolish." Jiang Qing hurriedly bowed down and said, but he was still skeptical in his heart.
"This Shen Winemaker from the Drunkard Building is not simple." King An's gaze swept obliquely over the Hanmei picture on the case and said.
Jiang Qing followed his line of sight and also looked at the painting, only to see that the plum blossom was on the white paper, the shade was appropriate, and the bright red was even more crystal clear......
However, there seems to be something missing that makes the painting look unfinished.
"This painting is as you say, it's not finished." King An stretched out his hand and pointed at the cold plum and said.
"The long branches are sparse, the short branches are dense, the old trunks are new branches, and the sides are curved. This is the essence of plum painting. King An seemed to be talking to himself.
Jiang Qing held his breath and stared, just secretly speculating on the meaning of King An's words.
King An glanced sideways at Jiang Qing, and found that the other party still didn't comprehend, so he put down the golden bottle in his hand: "This red plum is that Shen Nineteen, and these branches," he pointed to the painting with his hand, "It's those people who have various relationships with her." ”
Jiang Qing's eyes jumped, he didn't know if he was also a little new branch on the red plum map.
He cleared his throat, and said calmly: "Then this seemingly thin old branch, but it is Xu Qing, the shopkeeper of the drunkard building?" ”
An Wang smiled: "Brother Jiang is smart, and he can understand it at one point." ”
However, above the cold plum, there is another branch growing next to it, which curves sideways, and has the tendency of slashing into the sky. Although it has power, it is not in harmony with the whole picture, and people just feel disgusted.
"This branch ......," Jiang Qing muttered, "Could it be that Jia Dequan?" ”
King An nodded: "Exactly." ”
Jiang Qing carefully looked at this picture of Hanmei, at first glance. Although the plum blossoms of the frost and snow are eye-catching, the old dry branches and the branches that lean out from the side seem to be the key to this painting.
"According to what His Highness has seen......" Jiang Qing became more and more puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to rashly guess King An's intentions, so he simply asked directly.
"Now. It depends on which branch this red plum blooms on. An Wang pointed to the most gorgeous plum blossom and said.
"Back to His Royal Highness, Wei Chen remembered that this Shen Shijiu once borrowed a bundle of straw from Wei Chen in the Doujiu Garden." Jiang Qing once told King An about this situation, and now. He decided to repeat the situation again in order to get King Ann's attention.
"So what?" King An does not seem to have forgotten about it.
Jiang Qing regretted that he had said too much, but at this point, he could only finish the next words with a hard head: "Weichen thinks that since Shen Shijiu has borrowed straw, and a random jar of wine in the wine cellar of the drunkard building can find this kind of straw in the wine puree, does that prove that Shen Shijiu is innocent?" Who else was poisoned? ”
When he said this, he only felt beads of sweat the size of beans sliding down his forehead.
King An looked at Jiang Qing without saying a word.
Jiang Qing bowed and didn't dare to raise his head. In such a long silence, he regretted his words a little. However, these are just things on the surface, and if he doesn't say it, King An will also doubt whether Jiang Qing is loyal to him.
"According to you, who poisoned it?" King An sat on the golden silk nanmu chair, with a kingly bearing, not angry and arrogant.
"This ......" is a very important matter, and Jiang Qing does not dare to say anything. His head is like a ** handkerchief, which is twisted from above. Jiang Qing's brain ached, and he sweated like rain.
"Since you don't know, how can you conclude that Shen Shijiu is innocent?" King An looked at Jiang Qing and sighed lightly. "Brother Jiang, your heart has softened a little......"
As soon as King An's words came out, Jiang Qingfang felt that the piece of head on his head was a little lighter, and he only promised: "It's the minister's carelessness." ”
"Do you know that Shen Shijiu is a woman!" King An seemed to suddenly remember the appearance of Hu Shijiu before, from the beginning in the wine arena. When he saw the wine recipe presented by Hu Shijiu, King An paid a little more attention to this delicate little winemaker.
However, in the later investigation, in addition to this little bartender named "Shen Nineteen", who confirmed King An's conjecture that it was a girl, her origin, and a series of things that happened in her wine fighting conference attracted King An's attention, and the most ironic thing is that even this "poisonous wine" was actually served by her.
Jiang Qing looked at King An dumbfounded, Shen Nineteen is a woman? Nineteen brothers? That Shen Nineteen, who has a bright and bold personality......
Jiang Qing suddenly felt dazzled, one moment in the wine garden, Hu Shijiu and him called him brothers, one moment in the wine banquet, she flew happily, the export became a chapter, and the next time she and the Jiang family restaurant everyone had a good time......
Shen Nineteen, is she actually a woman?
The ** piece on the top of Jiang Qing's head suddenly turned into a thick and solid green brick, which hit him with a solid head, and he was a little dizzy.
King An looked at Jiang Qing and knew that this loyal and honest guard could not accept this matter for a while. He then changed the tone and said, "It doesn't matter if she's a man or a woman. What matters is who she really is. ”
Who exactly?
Jiang Qing couldn't tell at all at this time who Shen Shijiu, who called him a brother and sister.
He turned around and left the table, came to the opposite side of King An, and solemnly bowed down and said, "The minister will investigate carefully!" ”
"That's very good." An Wang actually didn't have much hope for Jiang Qing.
He just asked that the cronies in front of him could not be affected by personal feelings, so it was enough.
As for that Shen Shijiu, she has too many suspicions, if she is a person sent over there, the previous poisoning can be regarded as a bitter ploy, but why did she rebel in the end?
What's more, the biggest suspicion in this is that Shen Shijiu doesn't seem to know that the silver cup he used during the wine fighting meeting is a tool used to test drugs.
Such an understatement of assassination is too child's play.
But if she was just a simple wine master, then why did she pretend to be a man and sneak into the wine fighting conference and get close to Jiang Qing with all her intentions? Moreover, King An was sure that at the time of "offering wine", the winemaker "Shen Nineteen" from the drunkard building already knew that the wine was poisonous!
Was this poison mixed into the wine by Shen Shijiu before, or was it deliberately handed over to the guards and dropped by others?
The difference between these can be described as a thousand miles of fallacy......
King An only felt that this wine fighting conference had been manipulated by people with intentions from the very beginning, and they were all like puppets who had been tied to the string, step by step, towards the unknown abyss. (To be continued.) )
