Chapter 42: Bloodstains
Sima Ming looked at Gu Zhiqing who was guiding Cangxuan, and always felt that his cousin was a little strange, although her cousin read poetry and books and was polite, but for Cangxuan, her cousin seemed to be polite.
Just thinking about it, Cang Xuan's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "I have heard that Gu Xiang is fair and honest, and he worships as the left minister in his early twenties. ”
"How can I bear the title of "Ming Xiang", it is just the food of the king, and the worry of the king. Because the yard was remote and overgrown with weeds, leaving only a stone path blocked by vegetation on both sides, Gu Zhiqing led the way: "Master Cangxuan is going this way." ”
The vegetation on both sides was too dense, and the stone path under his feet was only enough to land one person's feet, and the line of sight was blocked, Sima Ming stepped on the air several times, but at the last time, he was held by the hand stretched out from the front.
Sima Ming looked at Cangxuan's back in a slight stunned manner, and followed closely under his feet.
Cang Xuan said with a smile: "Whether I can afford it or not, it's not what I say, but what the dawn people of the world say, I just show my mind on behalf of the people of the world, and Gu Xiang doesn't have to be too humble." ”
Gu Zhiqing chuckled and didn't answer again, and stopped after walking forward for a long time: "Young Master Cangxuan has arrived." ”
Cang Xuan let go of Sima Ming and instructed, "Wait for me here." Then he walked over, there were a few drops of blood on the vegetation in the corner of the wall, and Cang Xuan looked up at the high wall: "Gu Xiang, can people see the top of the wall?" ”
"The top of the wall?" Gu Zhiqing was slightly stunned, looked at Cang Xuan and said: "The width of the top of the wall is less than half a foot, even if she turns over there with an injury, it may not leave bloodstains." ”
"Gu Xiangwei doesn't practice martial arts, so I don't know, this distance plus a zhang of high strength, if you don't borrow strength, you can't go up at all, the strange thing is that there are no footprints on the wall, then there is only one reason, she borrowed the plants under the wall, which also makes sense why her blood will drip in that position, if you go up from that position, you can only jump down with the help of the wall, and you can't fly out directly with light power."
Gu Zhiqing reacted suddenly: "I'll go and ask someone to go up and have a look." ”
"It's okay, I'll go up." Cang Xuan said that he climbed to the top of the wall according to the route he had speculated just now, looking at the wall without a trace, the man really deliberately ran here to confuse his vision.
Gu Zhiqing saw Cang Xuan coming back and asked, "Brother Cang Xuan, how is it?" ”
Cang Xuan patted the injured ash and said, "That person didn't get out of here. ”
Gu Zhiqing also sensed the difficulty of the matter, "That is, this blood was deliberately dripped by that person?" In order to make us think that she escaped from the Hou Mansion, and she is not from the Hou Mansion, if this is the case, that person hid in the Hou Mansion and did not leave, then how did she avoid my thorough investigation? ”
"Let's go back first." Cang Xuan said that he was going to return the same way.
Seeing that they were back, Cen Wei asked, "How is the investigation?" ”
"Nothing." Gu Zhiqing sighed lightly, Gu Zhiqing looked at Cang Xuan: "Young Master Cangxuan, it's hard work today, why don't you stay and have dinner and go back?" ”
Sima Ming's eyes lit up, and he said to Ning Mu'er on the side: "Sister Mu'er, inform the kitchen to prepare a richer dinner tonight, tonight's meal determines whether they can go out of the school." ”
Cang Xuan chuckled: "It turns out that they haven't graduated yet, so why did Brother Sima return the people?" ”
"It's your person, I can't take it for myself, and Uncle Zhao has to look at the store again, and it's too hard to cook." The main thing is that she doesn't want Cang Xuan to eat badly.
Cen Wei looked at these two: "Two, we are still here, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing, who are you?" ”
Sima Ming didn't think there was anything that couldn't be said about this, and explained truthfully: "Cook, I dislike that the chef in the house is not good to cook, so I borrowed a cook from Brother Cangxuan and came back to teach the cook in the house to cook." ”
Cen Wei ate no less than ten times in Cangxuan's southeast tilt, how could he not know the level of cooking in the southeast tilt, but he didn't expect that Sima Ming actually borrowed someone from Cangxuan in order to come back to teach the chef in his house.
"The southeast-leaning dish is indeed a must, or the Hou Ye has the foresight, and he would actually think of borrowing a teacher to learn art to avoid worries." Cen Wei squeezed his eyebrows at Cangxuan: "Since the Hou Ye is so sincere, what are you going to go, it is better to stay and ask the Hou Ye to check it." ”
Although Cen Wei didn't see anything wrong with what he said, there was something in Sima Ming's words, Sima Ming looked at Cang Xuan and asked, "Brother Cang Xuan has something important?" ”
Cen immediately spoke: "Hou Ye rest assured that he is fine, even if he has something important, he will go back and paint his painting that is only worth a penalty." ”
Sima Ming"?? ”
"Lord Cen, who told you that Brother Cangxuan's words are only worth one ingot of silver?" She could see with her own eyes that Cangxuan's paintings were sold for a thousand taels of silver.
Cen Wei felt that Sima Ming's tone was wrong, and asked, "His paintings are very valuable?" ”
"A painting is worth a thousand taels."
Cen Wei: "....."
Cen Wei remembered the IOU of one hundred taels he was coerced and lured, and looked at someone: "You have money and still blackmail me?" ”
Sima Ming and Gu Zhiqing looked at the two of them in a daze.
Gu Zhiqing was even more confused, the Five Princes lied about the money of the academicians of the Tai Hospital, which is really a strange news in the world.
"Lord Cen, you have read the cold window in the past ten years, why don't you go to the Guozijian to reshape it for a few more years, understand what it means to be false, you drink my wine, eat my food, sleep in my room, and don't charge you money, are you embarrassed?"
"I'm your brother anyway, do you need to be so detailed with me?" Cen Wei said angrily.
"My brother still has to settle accounts, and I will let you make an IOU." The implication is that you see how much I love and how righteous I am, and I know that you have no money, so I asked you to make an IOU.
Cen Wei was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he held back a sentence for a long time, "I thank you." ”
Cang Xuan smiled and said: "Lord Cen doesn't have to be polite, this is all as it should be, and you are welcome to come to the southeast to live in the future." ”
Sima Ming couldn't hold back when he looked at the two of them, and laughed out loud.
Gu Zhiqing looked at Sima Ming, his eyes slightly darkened.
After being full of wine and food, although Cen Wei verbally said that it was a loss to spend a hundred taels to come back, in fact, it is not difficult to see that Cen Wei also talked about it verbally, and he was not really angry.
After Sima Ming finished eating, he and Gu Zhiqing ate in the courtyard, Gu Zhiqing could clearly feel that Sima Ming was very happy today, maybe not because of something, but because of that person, he could obviously feel that Sima Ming's change was because of the five princes?
"Ming'er." Gu Zhiqing suddenly stopped and called her.
Sima Ming, who was still intoxicated by the laughter and laughter at the dinner table, stopped when he heard Gu Zhiqing's voice, and looked back at Gu Zhiqing, who was a few steps behind him, "Cousin, what's wrong?" ”
