Chapter Forty-Three: The Little Girl Who Came Out
"Tomorrow will be the beginning of winter." Nan Huaijin suddenly put down his chopsticks and said this for no reason.
Shen Enlai didn't stop, took a bite of food, yes, Lidong, it's the ninth day of the first month, and her brother is also that year and that day since then dissipated in this world.
Shen Enlai took the food back to the sink to wash, and the night had become gray. Shen Enlai looked up at the crescent moon hanging high above his head, but he was suddenly a little at a loss. She stood where she was, silent for a moment, and then raised her feet and walked towards Mei Yuan, which was also the place where Fan Ruoci was held.
She hadn't come to see this woman alone, and beauty was sometimes a disaster in ordinary homes, and it wasn't necessarily the icing on the cake in rich and noble homes. Her brother had warned her that there are two sides to everything in the world, and that while beauty brings benefits, she should not forget the turbulence hidden behind the calm.
"Who?" The detained soldiers stopped Shen Enlai outside the garden.
"Shen Enlai, a first-level student of Taixue." Shen Enlai possessed himself and presented the pass he had just obtained, and after His Majesty received the order, Shen Enlai was qualified to interrogate alone at the same time. After confirming that it was correct, it was released.
Shen Enlai paced to the door of the detention room in the moonlight. "Knock knock-" Knocking on the door, Shen Enlai waited in front of the door for a moment before pushing the door in.
The room was transformed into a temporary interrogation room, perhaps because of Wen Xingjian's care, Fan Ruoci's situation was not as difficult as Shen Enlai imagined. Although there were torture instruments in the room, there were no traces of blood, and they were generally clean. There is even a separate chaise longue for Fan Ruoci to rest. As soon as Shen Enlai entered the house, he saw such a scene. Fan Ruoci sat on a chair with a blanket on her lap. Shen Enlai looked down at herself, because of the water stains stained by cleaning the dishes and chopsticks, and her messy hair, she looked like a suspect. It really can't be compared with the two, and it's a mistake.
Fan Ruoci's eyes kept looking behind Shen Enlai, but after a long time, there was still no movement, although she was puzzled at this time, she could be regarded as a reaction, only Shen Enlai came so late. She looked back on Shen Enlai, dressed as a student of Taixue, she was a girl, which was rare. Looking stupid, if she goes to the wrong place and there are guards at the door, she can't get in, so what's the matter with her appearing here? The little girl grinned at her, then put her hand in her arms, huh?
Then, Fan Ruoci watched Shen Enlai take out a bottle of wine from his arms.
"People say, after drinking and spitting out the truth, my interrogation work is not easy, you drink the wine, you should say that you should confess." Shen Enlai put the wine on the interrogation table as he spoke, and took out two wine glasses from his sleeves. Arrange it neatly on the table and work together.
Shen Enlai did this, but Fan Ruoci was stunned at the moment. This, where did the little girl come out?
"Fan Ruoci, Fan Chen's granddaughter, was once a famous talented woman in the capital. Prince Wen Xingjian's marriage match, but once an accident changed, the family was ruined. After Shen En finished saying this, he poured himself a cup and drank it.
Fan Ruoci glanced at the empty wine glass, and then at Shen Enlai, who was a little red, a glass like this, who asked whom? This person won't sleep with her, will he? Fan Ruoci only felt a little headache at this moment.
"You are?" Fan Ruoci had a little impression of Shen Enlai, maybe she was in a trance, but she couldn't remember it clearly.
"Taixue Level 6 Class Master, Shen Enlai."
Shen Enlai... Fan Ruoci has a little impression that this little girl who is famous at the opening ceremony.
"What the hell do you want to do?" Fan Ruoci looked at Shen Enlai pouring the glass of wine in front of him and raised his eyes.
"I said it, investigate the case." Shen Enlai lay on the interrogation table and raised his eyebrows at Fan Ruoci. Continue to speak: "No matter what, the prince will definitely protect you." He must also be able to protect you, otherwise you would not be sitting here properly, and after finding out that you are a remnant, Your Majesty can completely throw you into the secret bureau or even directly ask for beheading. And you're sitting here, what do you think it says? Shen Enlai threw the words back to Fan Ruoci.
"......" was silent, Fan Ruoci didn't respond, just looked at Shen Enlai.
"Let's make a deal." Shen Enlai put away his smiling face, followed Fan Ruoci's example, and sat upright.
"I don't know what you have experienced between you and Wen Xingjian, and what you have left behind now, and I don't have a habit of spying on other people's feelings. However, staying in Taixue is like a stranger to Wen Xingjian, this is your choice. It can be seen that Wen Xingjian still has feelings for you, and this affection is not shallow. What about you? Is there ever been, or is it still there, but the sea of blood and hatred is in front of you, and you can't step across. ”
"Is that enough? What exactly do you want to do? ”
"Your Majesty will not kill Wen Xingjian, but in this matter, I can't let Wen Xingjian get out of the way. And you, you won't see Wen Xingjian die, but the long-term entanglement should be broken here. You help me to prove Wen Xingjian, I will help you, and Wen Xingjian will be cut off. ”
"Why should I trust you?"
"I'm not a member of the Third Prince, you should know about the previous Gu Chusheng case. So I didn't have to let the prince die. My purpose is just to get into the secret bureau. In this case, the third prince will definitely send someone to infiltrate. At that time, no matter what your confession is, it will spread in the direction of the eternal fall of the crown prince to Yama. Instead of that, you might as well work with me. Win-win, isn't it? ”
Fan Ruoci did not agree or directly refused, Shen Enlai knew that it was impossible for Fan Ruoci to fully believe in himself with such a few words. She needs to wait, she has already passed on this message to Fan Ruoci, and after that, whether it is Wen Xingxing or other princes, they will receive this message and will naturally make a choice. She's not afraid.
Coming out of the interrogation room, Shen Enlai had already drunk several glasses of wine, although he was not drunk, the whole person was still a little fluctuating, it was not the person who was really drunk, it was the heart. Shen Enlai held the wine jug in his hand high and touched it lightly towards the moon.
"Cheers! Farewell to all those who have lived in my life, and may you and I flourish in a world that cannot be seen by each other. Cheers! Shen Enlai muttered and took another drink.
A figure slowly paced in the direction of the sixth class school, the night was sparse, and a little light hit her shoulder. Her mouth seemed to hum a little tune, drifting in the night sky with the wind.
"Yue'er Ming, the wind is light, have you ever been in my dream, you must have been too careful when you came, knowing that I slept lightly ......"
It is said that time is the medicine for wounds, but they don't know that real wounds never heal. Thoughts do not pass, they are just covered up in the daily grind, but every night, every moment, they inadvertently knock on the heart, because how can some people forget?
