Chapter 120: Examination
Jing Wan'er returned to the courtyard, and was just about to close the door, when a hand reached out from the crack and held the crack in the door.
Jing Wan'er raised her head and stared at him: "Didn't Sicheng go out to visit?" “
Shen Xingwen stared at Jing Wan'er's face, his expression faint and sparse.
Jing Wan'er's hand held the door, but she didn't open the door, and she couldn't close it again, "Is there something wrong with the temple?" “
Shen Xingwen raised his eyebrows before he spoke softly: "Miss Jing wants to talk to Shen like this, and she doesn't invite Shen in... Another cup of tea? “
Jing Wan'er's freshly brewed tea is now brought back like this and is still on the table.
Shen Xingwen's hand pushed open Jing Wan'er's door with a little force. Jing Wan'er looked at him a little coldly.
Shen Xingwen grinned lightly: "Shen Moufang just went out, and he remembered that going to visit so rashly was tantamount to startling the snake." So this scared away the only witness who stayed in Chang'an, but the gain outweighed the loss. “
Jing Wan'er looked at him: "What is the temple doing here with me?" “
Shen Xingwen stared at Jing Wan'er and said for a while: "Because Shen also just realized that Shen made a stupid thing of 'black under the lamp'. When it comes to witnesses who are close at hand and can be questioned, where do you need to go to the west of the city? “
Jing Wan'er looked at him without saying a word, her expression even more gloomy.
Shen Xingwen's lips hooked: "Would the girl like to talk to Shen?" Or, answer a few questions from Shen? “
Jing Wan'er said in a deep voice: "Shen Sicheng, if you remember correctly, you are going to investigate the unjust case of the prince back then, this case is an old case twenty years ago, haven't you forgotten that Wan'er was not born at that time?" "In any case, she has nothing to do with this case.
The smile on Shen Xingwen's lips deepened: "Yes, is this what Miss Jing also answered adults?" “
A little anger appeared on Jing Wan'er's face: "What do you mean?" “
Shen Xingwen walked directly into the room, and when Jing Wan'er reacted, it was too late to stop it.
Shen Xingwen looked at Jing Wan'er's house a few times, and it should be said that he had never been
I have seen such a simple girl's boudoir, without the gold and privacy of her daughter's family.
Jing Wan'er's voice had completely cooled down: "Shen Sicheng has seen enough, right?" “
She's not a crime scene here, so she doesn't need to look at it like that.
Shen Xingwen turned around and stared at Jing Wan'er, he knew very well that even if it was Liupin Temple, his behavior just now was not in accordance with the rules, and he had already annoyed this girl who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside.
Even if Pei Tan spoke to Jing Wan'er, she was polite, and she hadn't experienced the feeling of being offended for a long time.
Shen Xingwen suddenly smiled and said in a deep voice: "Starting from Qinglong Temple, presumably Shen has long lost a good impression in the girl's heart. But Shen is not an unreasonable person, on weekdays, Shen wants to talk to the girl alone, I'm afraid there is no chance, now, the adults are entertaining guests in the front hall, and they won't be able to come back for a while, Shen can have a good chat with the girl. ”
Jing Wan'er was shocked in her heart, she didn't know if Shen Xingwen happened to meet the visiting Guanglu Siqing at the door when she went out, so she would just turn back. At least the meaning of his words does not stop there.
Jing Wan'er is not a person who only knows how to dodge, she stared at Shen Xingwen and said, "What do you want to ask?" ”
is no longer called "Shen Sicheng", at least it means that Jing Wan'er is angry.
Shen Xingwen didn't mind, and after a pause, he said lightly: "Why Shen is here is here, with the girl's intelligence, I know it in my heart." ”
It's not that Jing Wan'er said that she wasn't born when Prince Zhang Huai died, which shows that she really doesn't know anything.
Jing Wan'er looked at Shen Xingwen and waited for him to continue.
Shen Xingwen's expression was faint: "Shen Mou said something straightforwardly, and he wanted to ask the girl a few questions, but now Shen wants to know more, how much does the girl already know?" ”
Jing Wan'er didn't shy away from his gaze, "I don't know anything. ”
Shen Xingwen said: "Does the girl mean that she doesn't know what happened back then, or... I don't know why my family is involved? ”
Jing Wan'er's face had no emotion at all, and nothing was sunk
Xingwen saw it, and she replied: "It is Shen Sicheng's duty to investigate what happened back then. ”
Shen Xingwen nodded: "It is indeed Shen's responsibility." Just like this case seems to have no clue, my adults and I have been checking the case file records for several days, but we can only see insignificant clues, and we can't get a glimpse of the truth of the year at all. So I thought of the only way with the adults, to thoroughly investigate the people who were active before and after the prince's case, and we can always find out who framed the prince back then. ”
Jing Wan'er didn't speak.
Shen Xingwen said fixedly, "In this time, Miss Jing, your case happens to be included. ”
Jing Wan'er looked at him for a long time before she spoke: "You want to ask about my family?" ”
Among the magnates in Chang'an, the Jing family was only a small family, so that no one specifically recorded the affairs of the Jing family.
Shen Xingwen didn't have a trace of detour, he looked at Jing Wan'er: "Miss Jing, was your father reused in the imperial court at that time?" ”
Jing Wan'er said: "He was born in white, and the so-called capital protection is just nothing
name, there is no real power at all. My father worked hard to top the high school rankings, but in the end, he only became a vassal of these powerful people. ”
Shen Xingwen's eyes fell on Jing Wan'er's flat face, and when it came to these things, the girl did not hide it in the slightest.
My father has been exiled and has suffered in that bitter cold place for many years, which is the fault of the powerful people of the court.
"Does your father have an enemy?" Shen Xingwen lowered his voice.
Jing Wan'er still replied lightly: "No, even if civilians like us become officials, we will not be taken seriously." My father was a loyal man, and even if the king only used him as a pawn, he had no complaints. “
Shen Xingwen was silent for a while. Suddenly, he smiled, and then cooled down: "Miss Jing, although these words may make you uncomfortable, but... The games of these magnates, even if they are chess pieces, must have value. Your father is so mediocre, how could he be involved in such a big case? His next few words were as soft as silence, but he saw Jing Wan'er's clenched hand.
Jing Wan'er looked at Shen Xingwen: "If you want to add to the crime, it is not my father and Jing who are guilty, you should ask those who are playing with others behind your back." “
The guilty are not harmed, but the perpetrators, when will this world be fairer, do not confuse this basic truth.
Shen Xingwen looked at her: "Qiu Shenqi, who forced the prince to death, died, and the queen of heaven also gave death to several officials accompanying him, why did everyone else die, your father, a powerless and powerless third-grade petty official, can survive?" “
Jing Wan'er had to take a deep breath to suppress the fluctuations in her heart, "I can't answer your question." ”
Shen Xingwen furrowed his eyebrows: "Is it that you can't answer, or does Miss Jing have something unspeakable?" ”
Jing Wan'er looked at him: "If my father can survive, it means that he did not make the mistake of letting him be sentenced to death at that time." ”
didn't anger the moody diva, this is what Pei Tan said.
Shen Xingwen bowed slightly: "As far as Shen knows, that lady has never had any compassion. “
How simple it is to kill a courtier, to kill is to kill, and as for whether the courtier committed a capital crime, or not, it does not matter at all.
Jing Wan'er said word by word: "Shen Sicheng, I'm tired. “
Recalling the events of the year, she was not ready, if Pei talked about it just now
Didn't leave, maybe, she would have that courage.
Shen Xingwen's eyes couldn't see the emotion: "Shen has one last question." “
Jing Wan'er wanted not to answer, because she was already feeling very bad.
I heard Shen Xingwen suddenly say meaningfully: "Miss Jing, as a palace maid, you are really powerful. “
Because of these words, Jing Wan'er put away her already tired face and looked up at him.
Shen Xingwen's hint of meaning became even more obvious: "What is your purpose in approaching adults, I'm afraid that from this case, it has been achieved, right?" “
Jing Wan'er sank her face and stared at him, "Shen Xingwen, don't go too far." Her hands clenched again, she could answer Shen Xingwen's questions, but she couldn't tolerate involving Pei Tan.
Shen Xingwen and Jing Wan'er looked at each other and said slowly: "On the last night of Qinglong Temple, the adult was injured, and Shen, like everyone else, paid all the attention to the adult. But at this time, Miss Jing, who was most worried about the safety of adults, actually picked up the corpse of a pigeon in the yard and left the yard. “
Jing Wan'er's chest was grabbed by a hand.
Shen Xingwen shook his head: "If it weren't for the girl's move, Shen wouldn't have thought to take a second look, only to find out at a glance that the pigeon was not a wild pigeon flying from the mountain, but a carrier pigeon that had been carefully raised." “
When Shen Xingwen said this, he could perceive that the eyes staring at him were no longer as calm as they were just now.
Shen Xingwen looked at Jing Wan'er with interest: "Later, Shen recalled that it seems that when Shen was doing an autopsy, he once saw such a snow-white carrier pigeon under the window of the autopsy room. Because carrier pigeons will not stay casually, only by being raised by a special person, Shen found it interesting, because I clearly asked the officer, in Dali Temple, there is no specially raised carrier pigeon, because Dali Temple usually does not need carrier pigeons to transmit messages. “
Jing Wan'er looked at him: "Shen Sicheng finished speaking?" Let's go. “
Shen Xingwen said: "Shen hasn't asked the last question yet, although the girl has always been close to adults and rarely talks to Shen, but Shen has participated in several previous cases, especially Qinglong Temple... It was Shen who thought he was one
Hand facilitated the case, but in this way, Shen found out that he was a praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches, and those carrier pigeons... Actually, it has something to do with girls, isn't it? Or the owner of the carrier pigeon, which is Jing girl. “
The expression on Shen Xingwen's face was already completely a faint smile, which was so uncomfortable.
This man was chosen by Pei Tan, but he was really a handful, too much... Sharp knives too.
Jing Wan'er stared at him for a long time, and suddenly a trace of indifference arc appeared on her lips: "Shen Sicheng is really elevated, when it comes to thinking that he is smart, who can match you." “
