Chapter 8: Encounters Again
Wu Xiaoshuang's face turned blue: "What nonsense are you talking about, this ugly girl, how is this a fake?" It's the real thing. ”
Shopkeeper Wu glared at Duan Ling'er gloomily: "You have to dare to be responsible when you speak, don't think that if you are a little girl, I won't do anything to you." ”
Su Jing also said: "What do you know, I will guarantee this with my personality that this is the real thing, and it is you ugly monster who is deliberately making trouble here." ”
Duan Ling'er snorted coldly and said lightly: "What do you think is the payment for this painting?"
"In the autumn and July of the fourteenth year of Chenghua, Xu Dushan wrote in the spring grass hall." Xue Zheng read slowly.
"Mr. Xu Da Xuande was born in the seventeenth year of Ding Yousheng, and died in the ninth year of Chenghua, at the age of 78. In the fourteenth year of Chenghua, Mr. Xu Da has been dead for 45 years, and this painting does not need to look at the brushstroke, it must be a fake. ”
After Duan Ling'er finished speaking, the atmosphere on the entire second floor fell to freezing point, Xue Zheng turned his head to look at Su Jing in disbelief, Su Jing's face turned pale, and he didn't know how to explain.
"I, I'm looking away...... Wu shopkeeper! Su Jing shouted, ready to splash all the dirty water on the Wu family's father and daughter.
Shopkeeper Wu immediately shook his head and pretended not to know: "Did I buy the wrong goods?" It's me who bought the wrong product! Someone must have lied to me on purpose! ”
Duan Ling'er sneered: "You are in this business, you can't see such an obvious mistake, are you embarrassed to open this shop?" Such a clumsy fake, you are really embarrassed to sell it for two hundred taels. ”
Xue Zheng is not a fool after all, as soon as she saw the appearance of the three people, she immediately understood that she was set up by someone. Thinking of those things in his house again, his scalp tingled unconsciously, and he said to Duan Ling'er: "This girl seems to be an expert, can you come to the mansion to help me see a few other things?" ”
Su Jing's face changed, and she turned her head to stop Xue Zheng and said, "Sister Xue, what do you mean by this?" ”
Xue Zheng looked at Su Jing, his eyes were bright and cold: "I always thought that you were from the Su family's noble family, and you have always been in the boudoir, you seem to be an innocent and kind girl, but who knows that you have the idea of a tiger and a wolf fighting rabbits for me!" Why, do you think that our Xue family is not as good as your family to accumulate wealth for generations, and now that it is rich, do you have to be the one who is wronged? ”
Su Jing was told that she was in her mind, and immediately waved her hand vigorously: "Obviously, this ugly girl provoked me, I don't know anything about this painting, Sister Xue, listen to me." ”
Xue Zheng smiled coldly: "Miss Su, I was sincere to you, but now it seems that I did something wrong." ”
Su Jing was only thinking about how to deny it at this time, she was not ashamed in her heart, she was afraid that Xue Zheng would damage her reputation if she said this.
I didn't know what to do for a while, so I hated Duan Ling'er even more for her good deeds, and stared at her, eager to tear it apart.
Duan Ling'er didn't care, she stared at her.
I saw Xue Zheng walk straight to Duan Ling'er: "My name is Xue Zheng, my father is Boss Xue on Caoyun, thank you girl for today's help, my house is in Gongyuan Lane in the east of the city, Xue Zheng is abrupt, please if the girl is convenient to come to the house, if you want, you can come to me whenever you want, Xue Zheng is waiting for the girl at home." ”
Xue Zheng turned around and left, Su Jing's heart sank, and she grabbed Xue Zheng: "Sister Xue, listen to me." ”
Xue Zheng said coldly: "What else is there to say?" There are countless antiques in your house, and I heard that there are also authentic works of Mr. Xu Da, I don't believe that you can't even see such a simple mistake, you cheated me out of money and money, and tricked me into buying back fakes and hanging them in the hall, wouldn't it be a shame to treat my father to a banquet with friends? I didn't expect you to be such a villain! ”
Xue Zheng flicked his arm as he spoke: "Go away!" Let's go, girl! ”
Duan Ling'er saw that the matter was over, nodded and moved out, but was stopped by Wu Xiaoshuang, who was angry, and pressed his shoulder.
An Niang's face changed, and she took the first step in front of her, taking Wu Xiaoshuang's hand away from Duan Ling'er's shoulder: "What are you going to do?" ”
"What? Ruined our business, thinking it was so easy to leave? Wu Xiaoshuang's eyebrows were upside down, and his teeth itched with hatred.
Shopkeeper Wu said: "Not bad! You have ruined my business, this account must be settled! ”
"What are you doing?" At some point, footsteps sounded on the stairs, and two teenagers appeared at the entrance of the second floor.
One has a beautiful face and is shaped like a jade tree, and the other is dressed in gorgeous clothes and has an extraordinary bearing.
The three girls present blushed when they saw the thanks.
Su Jing immediately let go of Xue Zheng, put on a soft and shy and gratifying appearance, and called out coquettishly: "Thank you, brother, Gongzi Song." ”
Duan Ling'er looked at the young man walking towards him, and his face froze.
She had no idea that she would meet him again.
I still remember my previous life, Xie Ci personally led thousands of Yellow Dragon ships, took advantage of the darkness of the night, ordered the soldiers to rank and went down the river. At the same time, the deputy general led the infantry cavalry from Jiangling along the north bank of the river to attack the imperial city of Liang.
The sharp knives of the army of Xie Ci were cold and murderous, and the blood stained the palace of Daliang, and the palace maids and eunuchs screamed endlessly, so that she finally saw why Xie Ci had a name of killing gods.
At that time, in order to support her son to ascend to the throne, she was willing to seek skin with the tiger, secretly cooperated with the ambitious Xie Ci, and finally destroyed her husband's dynasty and bowed to the Great Zhou......
After that, Xie Ci held the power of the two countries, occupied the land as the king, the cruelty of the means, and the tyranny of the actions made the entire Liang Dynasty in an uproar, and he did not have the slightest awe of himself, the Empress Dowager Duan.
The imperial history has written to ask the Empress Dowager Duan, who listened to the government, to order the death of Xie Ci and send troops to the Great Zhou, however, she was afraid of his heavy troops, and she was more concerned about the mother of the Great Zhou, and did not allow the new king to act rashly.
It was also the moment when she really broke with her own son.
Until his death in his previous life, the new king of Daliang still had the slightest killing intent towards Xie Ci.
At this moment, the person in front of him is a young man's thanks.
And the young man who walked with Xie Ci was one or two years old, with a handsome appearance and an extraordinary temperament.
This person Duan Ling'er also recognized that it was Song Yan, the second son of the Yangzhou prefect.
Duan Ling'er looked at Song Yan, Song Yan in his previous life, always a wine saint, poetry and Zen everywhere, he was a smokey champion who lingered in the glazed Ying Alley, and he was a drunken immortal in the rivers and lakes.
This waste firewood, who was addicted to drunken dreams and deaths in Willow Lane, Flower Street in Beijing, turned out to have such a majestic side when he was a teenager, and he was still a friend of the teenager's thanks.
When Song Yan came up to the second floor, he looked around to see if he was selling antique jewelry, and when he saw a few people tense, he asked, he didn't take a good look at who was in front of him, and now he looked at Duan Ling'er, half of his face was ice and jade, but the other half of his face was as concave and concave as orange peel, like a rakshasa, Song Yan was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
I almost blurted out the word "ghost", swallowed it raw, and glanced at Xie Ci with complicated eyes.
What kind of appreciative eye is this? Such a woman is reluctant to be looked at by others, and his eyes are suddenly full of enthusiasm? I've never seen him so enthusiastic about anyone. This guy who investigates cases and looks at dead people every day is just not ordinary people!
Song Yan turned his head speechlessly, his handsome face turned like this, and the eyes of the daughter of the Wu family were warm.
Xue Zheng smiled at Duan Ling'er, lifted his skirt and went downstairs.
Xie Ci was stunned for a moment when he saw Duan Ling'er, and then wanted to step forward to talk to her, but Song Yan grabbed him, looked around and said, "Ah Ci, I said that jewelry is not sold here, right?" If you lose your bet, tell me about the murder of the widowed woman. ”
Xue Zheng walked halfway up the stairs with his skirt, and was stunned when he heard the conversation above his head, stopped and turned his head to look at Song Yan: "Didn't the daughter of the widow hang herself?" It is said that she was angry and ashamed because her mother did not observe the festival, and hanged herself by the neck to Mingzhi. A while ago, almost everywhere in Yangzhou City was talking about this woman erecting a virgin monument, why did he suddenly kill him? ”
Duan Ling'er said lightly: "Widow Chang's daughter is seventeen years old, which is the age of marriage, if there is always the idea of letting her mother keep festivals, there must be a lot of contradictions between mother and daughter, how can Widow Chang not marry her daughter out quickly?" Listening to the mother-in-law under the corridor, the widow and the man have been dating for more than a year, but they have never married, and her daughter has never been married, and she has not been looking for death or life. ”
Xie Ci looked at Duan Ling'er, and what fell into Xie Ci's eyes was full of beauty, one side of her cheeks was like snow, and the other side of her face was the red on the cheekbones of Tang Yin's lady Tuna.
The smoke and willows, the green shade swaying, a warm wind, swept through the spring sun, rushed into the window on the second floor of the wine inn, the window lattice wood was shining, shining with light.
Xie Ci's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he nodded: "That's right, when I went to see the deceased, I found that there were two slightly overlapping marks on the side of her neck, and the deceased was obviously strangled to death and then hung on the beam of the house and pretended to commit suicide." Later, when the man was interrogated, I learned that in order to get married, the widow promised the man to bring her daughter over and make the man secretly small, and the daughter was ashamed and indignant and reasoned with the man, but she was strangled to death after being spoiled by the man. ”
Duan Ling'er's face was solemn and she sighed: "Because of my cowardice and extravagance for men, I don't hesitate to waste and sacrifice my own flesh and blood." This kind of beastly thing cannot be done even by animals. A widow is not worthy of a mother. ”
Song Yan's face turned pale, and he suddenly felt that he had asked a question that he shouldn't have asked, ruining this beautiful scenery.
Duan Ling'er glanced at everyone, not wanting to entangle more, so Wu Zi also walked downstairs.
"Nurse, let's go."
As soon as the words fell, there was already a twelve or thirteen-year-old silver-clothed young man beside Duan Ling'er: "I saved your life, and you don't thank you?" ”
Duan Ling'er glanced at Xie Ci's beautiful face, and said lightly: "Childe recognized the wrong person." ”
The streets and alleys under their feet are crisscrossed, full of pedestrians coming and going, on both sides of the street, some small stalls of different sizes abound, shouting, shouting, people's conversations, all kinds of sounds are mixed together, depicting a lively Yangzhou scene.
Although Xie Ci was still a young man at this time, his appearance and body had not yet grown, but he already had a handsome face that was the same as in his previous life.
The sword eyebrows are flying horizontally, a pair of pupils as beautiful as obsidian are inlaid in the peach blossom eyes, under the high nose bridge, the ruddy thin lips are slightly hooked, and the curvature of the face is as delicate as a knife.
Duan Ling'er closed her eyes.
What a sin.
"I wanted to ask you last time, what's wrong with your face?"
Xie Ci brought his eyes to her, and his good-looking brows furrowed: "How did you get this half of your face?" ”
An Niang saw that this was okay, her girl met such a prodigal son when she went out for the first time, so she stepped in front of Duan Ling'er: "This little young master, please don't pester my girl." ”
Xie Ci was slightly stunned, bowed to An Niang, and then politely pushed An Niang away, and the interest on his face rose: "Miss Duan, you are so powerful in this move, you teach me, how to pretend to be disfigured?" ”
Duan Ling'er was stunned, why, the faces of the famous doctors in Yangzhou who thought they were helpless could be seen at a glance to be fake?
Duan Ling'er had no intention of knowing Xie Ci, let alone entangled with this person like in her previous life, she turned around and walked down, deciding that she would be the ungrateful person and ignore him.
Xie Ci immediately followed, completely ignoring Song Yan behind him and jumped to his feet and shouted.
"Ah Ci, you wait for me."
