Although the stone is small, he is a responsible child, he knows that this job is not easy to come by, and he needs to rely on it to exchange food and clothing for his family.

So, he finished going up to the hut as fast as he could, and rushed back, but in this short time, when he came back, he saw a man working on a bucket of rice next to him.

"I was also startled at the time, thinking that he was a master or something, but seeing his sneaky movements kept looking out the window, so I dared to shout and ask him what he was doing, and the man looked back at me, and everything in his hand seemed to have fallen into the meal, and he was also very nervous."

The stone was already trembling a little as he spoke. "After one glance and two flips with my hand, I realized that something was wrong and ran over and grabbed his sleeve, and when he found out that I had caught him, he reacted even more violently, and he turned around and twisted my hand away, and then ran away."

Xiaoshi paused for a moment, and continued, "I originally wanted to chase out, but at that time Huzi hadn't come back, I was worried that something like this would happen if I ran out again, so I stayed, I carefully looked at the situation in the rice bucket except for turning it, there was nothing else unusual, I thought he was just stealing food, so I didn't think much about it, closed the lid, and waited for the meal to open, who knows, and then there was poisoning." ”

Xiao Shi lowered his head as he spoke, Jiang Ruanyan knew that this was also something he didn't want to happen.

"Silly boy, why did you run away at that time?" The mother of the stone next to her was very sad after hearing this, and she had been crying since she saw the stone appear in this room.

To say that he faked crying during the day, in order to attract stones, he deliberately released words to say that his brother Goudan had died of food poisoning.

It was just a bluff, allowing their mother and son to cooperate in acting, and the crying at that time, although realistic, was just acted.

But ever since I saw Stone hiding outside for a day, running back home, and crying bitterly in front of his brother, I couldn't help but shed tears as a mother.

Crying like that is even more sad.

"Because there was a problem on the day I was guarding, if I didn't go to the hut at that time, there would be no such things, so I am afraid that I will be blamed, and when I lose this job, there will be no way to change food and clothes for my mother and brother."

Xiaoshi said, crying, "I don't want to do this, so I think maybe only I escaped, and everyone doesn't know anything, so that it won't be investigated to my brother and mother, I also heard the doctor say that my brother's illness will get better, so I thought that my mother in the future can only be taken care of by my brother." ”

Xiao Shi said that he was also in tears here, if he wasn't forced to do so, how could he leave his only remaining family,

Jiang Ruanyan sighed, "Don't do such a thing next time, you stupid boy." ”

As he spoke, Jiang Chen walked in with a tray, the plate was covered, and there were steamed buns in the bowl, as well as some side dishes.

Jiang Ruanyan took it and put it in front of the stone, "Eat quickly, I've been out for an afternoon, I must be hungry." Jiang said softly and pushed the food in front of him.

"Miss, don't you blame me?" Xiao Shi's big watery eyes looked at Jiang Ruanyan.

"What do I blame you for? You're not the one who poisoned you, and I want to thank you. Jiang Ruanyan bent down and said to him gently.

"And thank me?" The small stone is unknown.

"Thank you for giving me the clue, I ask you, do you remember what that man looked like?"

Xiao Shi nodded vigorously, "Well, I remember, but I have already observed this morning, he is not among us, and he doesn't seem to be from our village." “

Xiao Shi recalled, "I've been here for so long, although not everyone is right, but I have an impression of everyone I have met, but that person I think is a new face." ”

He wiped away his tears, "When I saw him, although he was wearing the same old clothes with patches as us, he didn't look like a village person when he looked at his fine skin and tender flesh. ”

These words instantly attracted Jiang Qing's attention, which was very similar to Jiang Ruanyan's guess.

"Then if I bring that man, will you correct him in court?" Jiang Ruanyan felt that he had found hope.

"Of course I do, I'm willing to make up for it."

Hearing him say this, Jiang Ruanyan was quite relieved, and reached out and touched his head, "Shi is still a learned child, and he must be sent to the school to study hard in the future." ”

Jiang Ruanyan said and looked at Shi's mother, and the other party's eyes were just full of gratitude, "Let's eat." But he was more concerned about whether his children were starving.

After a busy day, I can finally go home, and Jiang Ruanyan is smiling all the way.

"Miss, why are you so happy?" Jiang Chen sat in the carriage, but he looked sullen.

"Aren't you happy to see their family reunited, to see that little stone is so innocent and cute?" Jiang Ruanyan thought of Xiao Shi's cute appearance just now, if it weren't for his mother beside her, she couldn't help pinching his little face.

"Then what's there to be happy about, although you have found the little stone back, but he is not a murderer, tomorrow will be the last day."

Jiang Chen's voice became smaller and quieter, and after his reminder, Jiang Ruanyan suddenly realized.

Yes, Xiao Shi has always been a suspect before, and she has been thinking that if she gets Xiao Shi back, she can find the villain who poisoned her.

But now, although she asked for clues, she couldn't find who was poisoned according to that clue?

In this situation, even if the person named Wang Sanshi is recovered, it may not be that he poisoned him, maybe his departure is just some kind of coincidence, and Xiao Shi saw someone else.

Jiang Ruanyan suddenly fell into contemplation again, and Jiang Qing was also very entangled when he looked at this appearance.

Miss was happy just now, and of course he was also happy, but the reality was just as Jiang Chen said, and it was equivalent to no progress at present, but he didn't want to watch Miss stay up all night any longer.

Back at the house, Jiang Ruanyan didn't say anything, and after going back to the room directly, Jiang Qing originally wanted to follow, but Jiang Chen directly pulled him back to the room.

Miss looked so upset, don't bother her, Jiang Ruanyan returned to the room and did not sit on the couch as usual, but sat at the table and waited.

No, Gu Shenyuan came over after a while, and seeing his posture, he didn't plan to knock on the door and enter the house.

"What? Waiting for me here today? ”

"Or you're going to scare me by going into the house without knocking, aren't you?" Jiang said angrily.

"What do you think of it now? Did you find a surprise by doing what I said today? I've heard you've put together a good show. Gu Shenyuan looked very happy.

"Since you've heard about it, then you should also know my current situation, although Xiaoshi has returned, the murderer has not been found, so can you provide me with the portrait of your friend?" Jiang said bluntly.

Hearing this, Gu Shenyuan was stunned at first, and then sighed, "You have finally opened your mind." ”

Jiang Ruanyan frowned, and then glared at Gu Shenyuan angrily.

"I've reminded you so much before, but you didn't notice it, and now you just open up, was your head kicked by a donkey when you were a child?"

Jiang Ruanyan's hand clenched into a fist, "I'll just ask if you can give it to me?" ”

"I've been reminded of it all here, why don't you understand?" However, in the blink of an eye, Gu Shen Yuan's eyes were lost.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Ruanyan asked him to make everything clear this time.

"Even if I give you the portrait, what can you do? Do you know where he is? Can you go and arrest him? ”

Jiang Ruanyan was anxious when he heard this, "Why can't you?" I have his portrait, and I still have a small stone as a witness, and all the witnesses have been found, so what am I afraid of if I arrest him? ”

As soon as Jiang Ruanyan thought of what he had done to the victims, he wanted to dismantle him in his heart.

"However, you still remember what I told you, he had been working under Gu Gangqian before."

"So what? Can the people under Gu Gangqian's hands be without the royal law? Jiang Ruanyan shouted, and after calming down for a second or two, she suddenly reacted to what Gu Shenyuan meant.

"So you mean ......"

"I don't know much about what happened this time, but it can be seen from the current situation that my father acquiesced to this matter."

"What?" Jiang Ruanyan never thought of this, "Why did he do this?" ”

"Gu Gangqian wants to do such a thing, it is not difficult to guess its purpose, it is nothing more than to slander you, and by the way, pull me into the water, but it is impossible for the people in this palace to do things that the father and emperor do not know, not to mention such a stupid trick, you can debunk it, let alone him."

Jiang Ruanyan didn't think it sounded like he was praising her.

"But why did he do this, even if Gu Ganggan attacked me, then why did the emperor attack me, what good did it do him to attack me, not to mention that it couldn't hurt me at all, it hurt those victims." Jiang Ruanyan didn't understand it very much.

Gu Shenyuan sighed lightly and turned around, "He actually wants you to realize that you are just an ordinary person, what you can do is extremely limited, and he can do whatever he wants." ”

Jiang Ruanyan was shocked by Gu Shenyuan's words, isn't this the same as what the emperor said to her when she left the palace that day?

I just want to remind her to be aware of who she is and not to do anything out of line.

"Didn't I just help the victims? This is also because the disaster relief funds in the imperial court have been delayed, and the officials are corrupt and bribed, and exploit the property of the common people. Am I not helping him strengthen his people by doing so? ”

Jiang Ruanyan was obviously a little anxious.

"You do this, but the people can't get in touch with the emperor, all they can get in touch with is you, although you have the name of the emperor, but their more favorability still comes from you, even if the emperor gives them better material conditions in the future, they will still remember you who stretched out your hand to them at this time."
