Chapter 016: Murderous Intent Rises Suddenly
The more Shen Shu listened, the more ugly her face became-
She had already determined that the man in white was not the one who poisoned him, and in order to prove his innocence, the little guy also ventured into the house and threw out the body of the middle-aged man.
She didn't expect that her father would send someone to search their courtyard.
Shen Shu was about to open her mouth to explain a few words for the man, but Shen Chong, who had already finished ordering his subordinates, turned his head to look at her, a pair of thick black eyebrows were tightly twisted, and his face was solemn.
"Girl, this thing is not right, you are still young, don't be deceived by that white-faced scholar......"
Shen Shu was almost dumbfounded, daring to love her father when he saw that the medicine merchant was a young man, so he thought that she had a protective intention to protect the other party?!
She gritted her teeth, couldn't care about anything, and quickly pulled her father to a place where no one was, and said in a low voice:
"Daddy, this matter is really a misunderstanding, my daughter quietly followed behind the man in white last night, and followed him until the man in white went back outside the hospital. If he really belonged to the man in the cloth, his daughter would have died last night! ”
When Shen Chong heard this, his eyes were as big as a copper bell!
He was so angry that he pointed at Shen Shu's nose: "You, you, you, you are really good!" Go back and see how I clean you up! ”
Shen Shu snorted her shoulder: "Being bullied to the head, my daughter always needs to know, who wants to attack her daughter...... So, the scholar in white is really not an accomplice......"
As she spoke, her little face as white as jade put on a grievance at the right time, blinking her apricot eyes and looking at her father pitifully.
Just when she thought that Daddy would never be embarrassed with the man in white again-
Shen Chong seemed to suddenly think of something, his face was gloomy to the end, and a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
"It's still not right, the man asked us to come to this courtyard, and this man happened to die, and there is no right way to die. What's more, there was poisonous smoke in the room, which was calculated in advance, and if it was me standing at the door at that time, if you hadn't warned me, my father would have died in vain today......"
Speaking of this, Shen Chong waved his big palm and closed the coffin: "Girl, you are still young and easy to be deceived by others, don't interfere in this matter again, go and help your grandmother pack up her things, and your father will take you down the mountain immediately." ”
After he said this, he turned and hurried out of the courtyard.
Shen Shu was dizzy by Daddy's words.
Not to mention that Daddy is the commander of one party, even if he brings someone into the courtyard, he will not easily step forward and kick the door in person.
Even if he really rushed to the front, he was poisoned-
The man's sachet has the effect of detoxification, and it has been held in her hand, blocking Daddy's mouth and nose!
Shen Shu reacted, stomped her feet, and hurriedly chased in the direction of Shen Chong-
As soon as she ran out of the courtyard gate, she saw a familiar figure standing in front of the courtyard gate of the man in white, talking to the little guy who was about to enter the door.
Shen Shu was stunned, and blurted out and shouted at the man: "Third brother, are you awake?" How did you end up here? ”
Not only her, but even Shen Chong, who was walking in front, also stopped.
Shen Jinming and the little guy turned their heads together, the little guy stretched his face, saluted them, said a few more words to Shen Jinming, and then turned around and walked into the courtyard.
Shen Jinming saw the little maid close the courtyard door, which made Fu Xi walk towards Shen Chong and Shen Shu.
"Father."
Shen Jinming's face was pale, and his expression could not hide his anxiety: "Yesterday, my son fell into the cold pool behind the temple, and it was the white-clothed gentleman who ordered someone to rescue his son. If it weren't for him, my son would have died. Just now I heard Vice General Zhao say that he was going to the bottom of the mountain to order troops to come up, and asked my father to take back his ......."
Shen Shu frowned slightly when she heard this.
Before she went to the scripture hall yesterday to find her grandmother, she was with her third brother.
It is said that if the third brother's life is really in danger, there will be incense ash marks on the center of his eyebrows.
However, she hadn't seen any marks on the third brother's eyebrows yesterday...... It can be seen that falling into the cold pool must be thrilling and dangerous.
Could it be ...... This man in white is the third brother's destined savior? So the third brother's eyebrows don't have a fragrant ash mark?
Thinking like this, Shen Shu apologized to the man in white, but also felt a little more grateful.
She really wanted to ask the third brother, obviously he was good and could swim in water, how could he suddenly fall into the cold pool, and how could he "almost die"......
But this is not the time to ask these questions.
Shen Shu thought of Daddy's tone when he mentioned the man in white, and hurriedly said: "Daddy, you see, that person saved his brother's life yesterday, and it definitely has nothing to do with the man in the cloth......
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shen Chong again.
"Okay, the father already knows about this, you two will go down the mountain with your grandmother first, and the father will investigate the rest. The three masters and servants behaved strangely, even if they had nothing to do with the person who poisoned them, and they were responsible for defending Yunjiang for their father, they couldn't be easily let go, and they needed to be carefully examined before they could be conclusive. ”
"Parent ......"
Shen Shu wanted to persuade again, but Shen Jinming gave her a look.
Shen Jinming arched his hand and said: "That is the case, please also ask the father to treat each other politely for the sake of their love for saving the child's life." ”
Shen Chong let out a vague "um" and waved his hand at them: "Go ahead." ”
Shen Shu was reluctantly dragged by Shen Jinming and walked towards the east side of Jingsi Garden.
After they left, Shen Chong summoned the soldiers who followed him to the front, and ordered in a cold voice: "Hurry up and go down the mountain to urge, let Vice General Zhao quickly bring the soldiers up!" ”

Ginkgo biloba courtyard.
When the little servant walked into the courtyard, he saw a man in white sitting leisurely in the courtyard playing chess.
The man in white fell and asked casually, "Who are you talking to outside the door?" ”
The little servant replied respectfully: "It was the man who was rescued in the Hantan behind the temple yesterday, and it happened that he was the girl's brother." I heard that someone was poisoned last night, and I just woke up and knew what was going on here, so I rushed over. ”
Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something, and his face changed slightly.
"Master, the little one suddenly remembered that when he rescued the young master of the Shen family yesterday, it seemed that the dead man in the cloth was also beside him, and the little one remembered that he had taken off his shoes at that time, and he seemed to be going into the water to save people!"
The man in white frowned slightly, and asked, "Tell me about the situation in the courtyard of the man in the cloth." ”
The little guy hurriedly told the truth about the things in the courtyard.
At last, he paused, and said, "That girl is really a little strange, and she didn't come near the door to know that there was poisonous smoke in the room. Just one glance at the poisoned corpse knew what kind of poison he had been in.
I have only heard of some hanging pot families before, and since I was a child, I would pick some children with a keen sense of smell and taste to be medicine children, but I have never heard that those medicine children will react to poisonous weeds, after all, poisonous weeds can not easily smell or taste...... Plus the identity of this girl......
It seems that Shen Changshi is very close to his daughter's baby, how could he let him learn such a side-by-side technique......"
The man in white looked intently at the chessboard, twisted a chess piece casually, and put it into the chessboard.
After a few breaths, he said slowly: "Uncle Ten Emperors had many strange intentions in his disciples, and this woman can not only take ten smoke steps at a young age, but also understand some medicine and poison principles.
Shen Chong, the chief of Yunjiang, although he looks rude and reckless on the outside, is actually a wise and brave person, the three generations of the Shen family are entrenched in Yunjiang, and even Xiao Duwei has to give him three points, and there is a reason for thinking about it, but I didn't expect him to have an old relationship with the Ten Emperor Uncles. ”
The little guy suddenly asked for instructions: "Today's matter involves the lives of a pair of sons and daughters of the Shen family, and the man in the cloth sees that the situation is not right, and if he uses this method to commit suicide, he must be guilty of blame, and the little look at Shen Changshi's appearance does not seem to be easy to stop." Calculate the time, Shadow Five and they are coming back soon, do you want to ......?"
The man in white twisted up a chess piece and said lightly: "I came here this time to keep a low profile, but now it seems that it has caused a lot of trouble. You take the token, go to Yunbian City, inform Captain Xiao, and let him personally bring someone to greet you! ”
When the little guy heard this, he respectfully responded and turned around.
