Chapter 37: Tokens
"Then you really don't know much about your mother."
Seeing that Sun Qingqing thought for a long time before saying such a sentence, Li Shengshu couldn't help but shake his head and teased.
Sun Qingqing sighed helplessly, she had only been here for a few months, where did she know about this mother. And the original owner was still young at that time, and he didn't have a deep impression of her mother.
"I was so young that I couldn't remember a lot of things."
Li Shengshu nodded, and suddenly added, "I heard that your mother is also a legendary woman. ”
Since Li Shengshu actually knew his mother, Sun Qingqing came over with great interest, "Then can the prince talk to the concubine in detail?" ”
Li Shengshu pursed his lips, "It's just that I heard about it, and the specific situation is not clear to this king." ”
Seeing Li Shengshu's appearance, he knew that he must have something to hide from himself. But he didn't want to say more, and Sun Qingqing couldn't force it.
"That's a shame."
Today's weather is exceptionally hot. Even though it was already afternoon, the heat was only increasing.
The two of them couldn't help but be stuffy in the carriage, and Li Shengshu adjusted the curtain of the carriage so that the breeze could pour into the carriage, but the wind outside was warm.
Sun Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little drowsy.
But Li Shengshu's wheelchair was too much of a space, and she could only sit there, not even reclining.
As if seeing Sun Qingqing's sleepiness, Li Shengshu pushed the wheelchair back, and then let go of the handrail next to his wheelchair.
"If you're sleepy, sleep on it for a while."
Li Shengshu's cold voice came from the side, like a drop of clear spring under the scorching sun, making Sun Qingqing's sleepiness disappear without a trace.
It seemed that he didn't expect him to be so considerate, Sun Qingqing looked at him suspiciously.
Li Shengshu coughed lightly twice, "Princess, could it be that you are tempted by this king?" ”
Sun Qingqing couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "No, I just think the sun is coming out in the west today." ”
Li Shengshu chuckled twice and said no more.
The distance from the Rui Wangfu to the Guogong Mansion is extremely long. It takes an hour for the carriage to go back and forth, and with the hot weather today, I inexplicably feel that time is passing more slowly.
"It's been a bit too hot today. The concubine was respectful and obedient, and lay down on the armrest of the prince for a while. When I get to the mansion later, the prince remembers to call me. Sun Qingqing yawned lazily, and then lay down on the armrest.
Looking at her beautiful side face, Li Shengshu didn't stop long, and continued to turn his head to look at the scenery outside the car window.
After a while, Sun Qingqing's gentle breathing was heard.
Seeing the breeze blowing her fine hair gently floating on her white cheeks, Li Shengshu inexplicably felt as if her heart was being scratched by a cat, and stretched out her hand to pull her hair away.
Unexpectedly, this extremely slight action also woke up Sun Qingqing.
Because she was a killer before, she is very sensitive to things around her.
"Lord Wang?"
Looking at the hand that had not been withdrawn in time, Sun Qingqing was slightly surprised.
Li Shengshu calmly withdrew his hand, "You have something on your face." ”
Hearing this, Sun Qingqing reached out and touched his cheek, "Is there still it now?" ”
Li Shengshu turned her head, and her narrow phoenix eyes lingered on her face, "There are no more." ”
"It's still early, you can go back to sleep."
Sun Qingqing shook her head and reached out to rub her tired eyebrows. The rest she had just taken was already in a lot better spirits. Some of the overlooked information slowly became clear in my mind.
"Lord Wang, the concubine suspects that there is a traitor in the house."
As soon as these words came out, Li Shengshu's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Does the princess have any evidence?"
Sun Qingqing nodded first, then shook his head again, "I was talking to Su Shi in the back garden earlier, when I took out the fake jade wrench and smashed it in front of Su Shi. ”
Listening to her eloquently, Li Shengshu couldn't help but think about it.
"Go on."
Sun Qingqing couldn't help frowning, "When I told Su that the jade wrench was fake. She was stunned, not surprised. ”
And her expression at the time only appeared after I said that sentence, which was much slower than the average person's reaction. And I have observed carefully, there is no panic in Su's eyes, only shock. ”
After listening to Sun Qingqing's narration, Li Shengshu suddenly understood.
"The princess means that the Su clan has long known that this jade wrench is a fake."
"That's right." Sun Qingqing nodded.
"But not quite. This thing was a fake she made, and she should have known it was fake from the beginning. Sun Qingqing felt that there was something wrong in her reasoning, and then frowned and added.
Li Shengshu also discovered this flaw. But he didn't point it out, and continued to look at Sun Qingqing with interest, guessing whether she would find it boring.
"So what does the princess mean?"
Sun Qingqing sorted out the clues from beginning to end. Finally sure of it, she opened her mouth and said, "It must be the traitor in the mansion who told the Su family, and I will take this thing to her to settle accounts." ”
"So she didn't show much emotion about my questioning, because she knew early on that I had found the fake."
Seeing that her thoughts were still quite clear, Li Shengshu couldn't help but glance at her with praise, "You are indeed not as stupid as the legend." ”
Seeing him teasing himself again, Sun Qingqing had no choice but to hold his forehead.
"Then next. What is the princess going to do? ”
Sun Qingqing lowered her eyes and thought about it, and a plan slowly took shape in her mind, "Since we know that there is a traitor, then let's catch turtles in an urn." ”
"Oh?"
Li Shengshu raised his eyebrows with interest, "In that case, the king is waiting for the good news from the princess." ”
Sun Qingqing raised her eyes and looked at Li Shengshu, a smile crossed her beautiful face, "This matter naturally needs the help of the prince." ”
Li Shengshu smiled faintly and was noncommittal, "This king still thinks that Princess Ping's ability doesn't need this king's action." ”
Sun Qingqing raised his hand, "The prince praises falsely." ”
"Then tell me what you need the king to do?"
Li Shengshu was also very disgusted with the traitor in his heart, if he wasn't interested in listening to Sun Qingqing's plan now, he would have sent Zhao De to catch the spy all the spy.
"What needs to be done by the prince is very simple, as long as we go back to the house later. Don't let Steward Zhao enter through the main entrance. ”
Seeing that it was just such a simple matter, Li Shengshu became more and more interested in Sun Qingqing's plan.
"It's easy."
"Then there is Lord Lao."
Li Shengshu raised his hand, "Actually, this king is more interested in catching turtles in the princess He urn?" ”
Sun Qingqing's eyes flashed with interest, "Then please wait and see." ”
It didn't take long for the carriage to reach the vicinity of the palace.
According to Li Shengshu's instructions, Zhao De drove the carriage to the side gate of the palace and stopped, and no one had yet informed him.
Because the sound of Li Shengshu's wheelchair rolling was too loud, Sun Qingqing took the lead and walked towards Lanchen Yuan.
All the way to the west, Sun Qingqing met Ah Ling who was about to wash clothes.
"Miss..."
Ah Ling was immediately overjoyed when she saw Sun Qingqing, and was about to ask her for peace immediately, but was stopped by Sun Qingqing.
Ah Ling frowned suspiciously, "What's wrong with Miss?" ”
"Don't talk, let's go catch the ghost."
Seeing Sun Qingqing's solemn face, Ah Ling didn't dare to despise it in the slightest, put down the utensils in her hand at the moment, and followed Sun Qingqing back to Lanchen Garden.
"Miss, who is the inner ghost?" Ah Ling lowered her voice and whispered in Sun Qingqing's ear.
Sun Qingqing pointed to the inside of the room, and with her excellent hearing, she could hear someone rummaging through it.
"You'll be at the front of the door later, and I'll outflank you through the back door."
Ah Ling nodded, and swore in her heart that she would definitely handle this matter of Miss.
Hearing that the sound of rummaging things was getting weaker and weaker, the people inside should be about to come out, Sun Qingqing hurriedly walked to the back door.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the back door was opened, he met the people inside.
Sun Qingqing's figure flashed back with agility and did not collide with her.
"Oops! Which one doesn't have eyes?! ”
Mama Qian didn't see the person in front of her clearly, and scolded out of her mouth immediately.
"Heh..."Sun Qingqing sneered.
"Eyes wide open to see who the hell is in front of you?"
Hearing this demon-like voice, Mama Qian trembled, and the fat all over her body couldn't help but tremble, "Princess..."
Then, as if he had done something wrong, he turned around and ran towards the front door.
Looking at her trembling figure, Sun Qingqing sneered in her heart.
At this moment, as soon as Mama Qian opened the front door, she found Ah Ling standing at the door staring at herself with a pair of big eyes.
"Ah Ling, why are you here?"
At this moment, Sun Qingqing walked over from the back door and stood behind Mama Qian.
"Mama Qian, how about I catch turtles in this urn today?"
At this moment, Li Shengshu also came over with a wheelchair, looking at Mama Qian, who was caught between Sun Qingqing and A Ling, Li Shengshu's eyes darkened.
"Why did the princess come back so early today?"
Mama Qian couldn't help but be annoyed that she didn't arrange someone at the front door? Why didn't anyone tell me today, so I was arrested.
Sun Qingqing lingered on her.
"I don't know what Mama Qian likes in my room? If you want anything, just tell me to my face, why sneak around. ”
Mama Qian hurriedly turned out everything in her purse and showed it to Sun Qingqing, "The princess was wronged, and the slave didn't want to take anything?" ”
Sun Qingqing looked at her empty purse, "Although you didn't want to take anything, you still went and told Su." ”
I didn't expect Sun Qingqing to know her true purpose. Mama Qian trembled.
At this moment, Li Shengshu's cold voice came from behind her.
"There are no people in this palace who have unclean hands and feet, Zhao De, drag her down and cut off her hands and feet."
As soon as these words came out, the courtyard was silent.
Sun Qingqing secretly said that this Li Sheng Shu was decisive and bloody, and then raised his eyes to look at him, just staring at him, and his heart moved inexplicably.
Mama Qian collapsed weakly on the floor, kneeling and kowtowing to Li Shengshu.
"The prince's slave is wrong, please don't cut off the hands and feet."
