Chapter 151: For Myself
"I'm here to find Miss Shen", the county lord of Yining looked around as he spoke, grinning with disgust, "There is no dragon burning in this house, there are guests coming, why don't you add a brazier, look, there is no cup of hot tea, you are not afraid of the cold, Miss Shen and I can't do it." ”
"If it's cold, leave, no one will let you come", Xiao Ren said angrily, but subconsciously looked at Shen Tong, "Are you cold?" ”
The house that had been vacant for a long time was already deserted, and there was no brazier, so it was indeed cold and swishing.
Shen Tong only cared about talking to Xiao Ren, and he didn't care about it originally, but now when he heard what the county lord of Yining said, he also felt cold.
"Hmm." Shen Tong has had the experience of sleeping in the wild in the ice and snow, relatively speaking, this cold is nothing. But cold is cold, and there is no need for her to endure it.
Xiao Ren frowned, stood up and walked out, and when he walked to the door, he turned around and saw that Shen Tong was still sitting on the Taishi chair, he said with a cold face: "Let's go." ”
Shen Tong smiled, how can this kid say that she can leave, she is also a guest, right?
She got up helplessly, the county lord of Yining was faster than her, jumped in front of Xiao Ren, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Obviously, she has long been accustomed to Xiao Ren's behavior.
Xiao Ren ignored her and said to Shen Tong, "I'll send you home." ”
I was going to send her home.
Shen Tong didn't dislike the county lord of Yining, but today she followed Xiao Ren here, and she originally had something to talk about, but she couldn't say this in front of the county lord of Yining, and when she heard Xiao Ren say that she was going to send her home, she hurriedly thanked: "Okay, thank you Qishao." ”
As soon as her words fell, the county lord of Yining was excited: "Miss Shen, I'll send you too!" ”
Shen Tong opened her mouth, whether she refused or refused.
At this time, a voice that seemed to come out of an ice cave said: "No, don't you want to take this opportunity to sneak out, the matter of the fake county lord has already been spread, who knows if she still has accomplices, it is dangerous for you to go out now, stay in the palace honestly." ”
It was Xiao Ren who spoke.
The county lord of Yining flattened her mouth, it is the first month of the year, and she finally doesn't have to keep filial piety this year, she really wants to go shopping on the street. Yesterday, there was just an accident in the palace, and Concubine Ding detained her and didn't let her out, but if she followed Xiao Ren to send Shen Tong away, it would be different, it didn't matter if she cut first and then played.
But now Xiao Ren doesn't take her.
"Seventh Brother ......"
Xiao Ren didn't even look at her, and strode forward.
"Miss Shen, Sister Shen......"
Shen Tong showed a sympathetic smile.
The county lord of Yining drooped her head, and suddenly she shouted behind Shen Tong: "Sister Shen, I'll take you to see the cat." ”
Cat?
Cat!
Shen Tong's face was not red and his heart was not beating: "Let's change the day." ”
Well, the county lord of Yining was completely disappointed, and watched Xiao Ren and Shen Tong walk out.
It wasn't until he left the palace that Shen Tong asked, "Does the county lord rarely go out?" ”
"Don't let her deceive, Yining just likes to go out too much, last time she had to go out with me, I left halfway, she didn't go back to the palace, she went to Shuxianglou to eat and drink, but she broke her stomach and was carried back."
What Xiao Ren said was that the time when he went to find Shen Tong on the way, the county lord of Yining ran to Shuxiang Mansion alone, and ate spicy dishes, and he had unbearable abdominal pain halfway through eating, and he was fasted for two whole days, fortunately, Shuxiang Building was Mrs. Jiang Shuangliu's dowry, if it was an ordinary merchant, I was afraid that he would be scared half to death, even so, Mrs. Jiang also came to apologize in person with a generous gift.
Shen Tong smiled, this Yining county lord is really interesting.
Out of the palace, Xiao Ren asked, "Are you going back to Academy Street?" ”
It's daylight, of course Shen Tong doesn't need him to send it, he just came out under the guise of sending Shen Tong, after all, it's too cold in the house......
"Xiao Ren, I have something to talk to you about." Shen Tong said.
The two found a teahouse, and the shopkeeper of the teahouse knew Xiao Ren, so he took them to a clean private room at the back, and the man brought fragrant tea and refreshments, and then withdrew.
Shen Tong got up, looked inside and outside the private room, closed the door and sat back again.
Xiao Ren said: "The boss here is my person, you can rest assured." ”
Shen Tong nodded, she sat opposite Xiao Ren, she lifted the lid of the teacup to dry, the mist curled, and her eyes seemed to be dyed with moisture, wet, like stars lit up at the beginning of a rainy night.
"I know something about the Assassins." Shen Tong said.
King Qin handed over the investigation of the origin of the assassin to Xiao Ren, and although he left a living mouth, he had no clue other than knowing that the assassin was hired by the empress dowager.
Through the dense water vapor, Xiao Ren looked into Shen Tong's eyes. Shen Tong's eyes are black and white, obviously a pair of pure and pure eyes, but they are like a bottomless pool.
"Are you going to negotiate conditions?" Xiao Ren didn't think that Shen Tong would tell him such important news in vain, she had talked to him about the conditions, and she had already talked to him about the conditions outside the stinky rockery in the Protector's Mansion.
"No, we won't talk about conditions this time." Shen Tong said.
"Don't talk about conditions?" Although Xiao Ren was surprised, he didn't feel strange. The little girl in front of him had already surprised him.
"Yes, we can work together." Shen Tong smiled.
"Cooperation?" Xiao Ren looked at Shen Tong with interest, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she brought out a smile that seemed to be nothing, after a year, would she cooperate with him again?
"I can tell you what I know, but you want me to participate in your investigation, of course, you can also ask King Qin's consent first, but I don't think it's necessary, right?" It's still that childish voice, it's still that damn confidence, and it's still going to work with him.
Xiao Ren didn't answer, he still looked at Shen Tong, and after a long time, he said slowly: "The prince wants to find out the origin of the assassin because he wants to know the plan of the empress dowager; What do you want to find out about the origin of the Assassins? ”
The assassin wanted to kill the King of Qin, and in addition to knowing the mastermind behind the scenes, the King of Qin also had to know the origin of the assassin.
But what about Shen Tong?
"For myself." Shen Tong said.
"For you?" Xiao Ren was puzzled, Shen Tong had an intersection with the assassin because of the matter of the Qin Palace, and this matter had nothing to do with her.
"Yes, you should have heard about the destruction of Tao Shiyi's family, so do you know who destroyed it?" Shen Tong asked.
"Isn't it the Yang family and the Guan family?" Regarding what happened in Shangqiao Town and Liujiawan, Xiao Ren heard about it from Jiang Shuangliu's mouth, he knew that Tao Shiyi, according to Jiang Shuangliu, the Tao family destroyed the door, and it was the Guan family who did it, but the mastermind behind the scenes was the Yang family. Yang Jincheng, the eldest grandson of the Yang family, once came to Shangqiao Town.
"Tao Shiyi was set on fire by the Guan family, but Mrs. Tao and her mother's family were not, I guess the people who killed them were the same people who assassinated King Qin."
