Chapter 224
Rong knelt on the ground with a "poof", but his face was pale and he said urgently: "Master, you believe in the concubine, the concubine didn't send someone to let her come, she came by herself, master, you believe in the concubine......"
"Enough!" Shen He looked at her with a cold face, "You are still quibbling, in the past, I could still tolerate you with one eye and one eye closed when you were messing around, but this time, you had better pray that this matter really has nothing to do with you, if I find out that you have any signs of involvement in it, I will definitely make your life worse than death!" ”
It is said that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but the ugliness of his Shen Mansion is known to everyone in the capital! A face is lost!
How will he gain a foothold in this capital in the future!
The more Shen He thought about it, the more angry he became, glared at Rong fiercely, and walked away angrily.
The door to the study was slammed shut.
Rong instantly collapsed to the side, as if all the bones in his body had been sucked away.
After a full half of the ring, her beautiful and moving face instantly became hideous.
Shen Zhi!
On the other end, Shen Zhi walked out of the study and returned to Luotong Courtyard, but he was in a good mood.
"Miss, why are you still helping Mrs. Rong to excuse you," I really couldn't figure it out when I entered the painting, "Wouldn't it be all in vain in this way?" ”
"On the contrary," Shen Zhi hooked his lips and smiled slightly, "If I bite her to death, my father will even suspect me, but now I am helping the Rong family to intercede, but I said that it was the mother-in-law next to the Rong family who informed me of this, and he would not easily believe the Rong family." ”
"The master's mind is really hard to guess," he heard the painting as if he understood it, and sighed lightly as if he remembered something, "But Miss, Mrs. Rong's mother-in-law has not come, and Mrs. Rong will definitely not admit it, if it is ......"
Shen Zhi hooked his lips slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Do you think her words are still useful at this time?" ”
Since Shen He had doubted the Rong clan at this time, everything the other party said would naturally have to be discounted a lot, and there was no credibility for a long time.
But according to Shen He's cautious and suspicious character, her words will inevitably be verified.
However, in this regard, she has long been prepared and is not worried.
Shen He wanted to find out the truth, so she gave him the truth.
But what will he do when the truth is found out?
Shen Zhi's eyes flashed slightly, as if he had thought of something, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "If Shen Yun comes back at this stall......
Then the development of things will be even more exciting.
When the painting on the side heard this, he couldn't help but calculate the time in his heart, and couldn't help muttering: "I'm afraid I won't ......."
It has only been more than two months since the third lady entered the palace, and the draft ceremony has always lasted for three months, that is, the young lady said before that the draft ceremony may end early, and it is probably just a guess of her own young lady.
In this way, the third lady is going to come back, and it will be a month later, and I am afraid that the dust will have already settled on this matter by then.
"Not neces......sarily" Shen Zhi just smiled and didn't speak again.
Everything is in Shen Zhi's calculations, and within two days, Shen He will find out the truth of the matter.
And this has to start with the mother-in-law next to the Rong family.
Since Shen He was angry in the study, the Rong family was imprisoned in the ancestral hall again, and all the people in the Rong family's courtyard were taken into custody and waiting for interrogation and torture.
Even the Rong clan himself never thought that Shen He would actually move his true character this time.
The mother-in-law who had been with the Rong family was naturally taken into custody, but seeing that the people around him were brought out one by one every day, but they were carried back horizontally with blurred flesh and blood, and some of them had no breath in and out, and their hearts suddenly panicked.
Seeing that she was about to die, the mother-in-law gritted her teeth and used all the soft and soft she was secretly carrying on her body to buy off the dungeon guards who guarded her, and asked the other party to bring a message to Shen Zhi.
Even she didn't expect things to go very smoothly, and when Shen Zhi appeared in front of her, she still felt like she was in a dream.
This dungeon is in a relatively remote place in the Shen Mansion, and it is inaccessible on weekdays, and when it is not needed, it seems to be abandoned, and almost no one thinks about this place.
Shen Zhi stood at the door of the dungeon and glanced at the painting, who quickly took out a bulging purse from his sleeve and quickly stuffed it to the guards guarding outside the dungeon.
The guard hesitated for a moment before putting his purse into his sleeve, looked left and right before lowering his voice and said, "Second Miss, you go and come back quickly, you can't stay in it for too long, otherwise the master will know, and the little one's life will be difficult to protect." ”
The lord has explicitly ordered that no one is allowed to approach the dungeon, let alone enter the dungeon, without his express order.
If it weren't for the second lady's kindness to him, he would never dare to risk his life to let the other party in.
Shen Zhi nodded knowingly, and the watery skirt swayed, and disappeared at the entrance of the dungeon.
The dungeon was very dim, except for a few bean-sized candles lit on the walls, barely illuminating the inside, not to mention the damp and pungent musty smell that came to the damp face after entering the dungeon.
Shen Zhi couldn't help frowning, and found the prison door where the mother-in-law named Wang Po next to the Rong family was being held by the dim candlelight.
"But Second Miss?" As soon as she heard the movement at the cell door, Wang Po waited eagerly, and at this time she saw a slender figure standing in front of her with a dim yellow candlelight, and she couldn't hide her surprise.
"Lady Wang?" Shen Zhi squinted slightly, and saw the people in the prison clearly by the candle flame on the iron frame on the side.
In the past, the Wang Po who was always neatly dressed and meticulous around the Rong family, but at this time, she was like a crazy woman, and her clothes were even more dirty, and at first glance it looked like a flower child.
When I looked at the painting on the side, I was even more relieved, and sneered: "Grandma Wang, you also have today." ”
In the past, this princess often sarcastically targeted her and Zhuqin with a stinky face, and also said bad things about her own young lady openly and secretly.
But I didn't expect that there would be a day when I asked for my own lady's head.
If it weren't for the wrong timing, she would have rushed up to give the other party a few ear scrapers at this time, so as to relieve her anger.
Wang Po turned a deaf ear to her, and only looked at Shen in a hurry: "Since the second lady is here, I think she is interested in the old slave's proposal." ”
Shen Zhizhi seemed to think about it for a while, and then suddenly realized: "You mean that you helped me point out the things that the Rong clan did, and as a reward, I want to rescue you from here?" ”
"Yes!" A flash of joy flashed in Wang Po's eyes.
In her opinion, since Shen Zhi had taken the risk to come to this place, he was obviously moved by her proposal.
Thinking like this, she lowered her voice and said: "The old slave knows that you and Mrs. have never dealt with each other, and the old slave promises that as long as the second lady rescues the old slave from this place safely, the old slave will definitely tell the second miss all the secrets that Mrs. has to see." ”
Shen Zhi heard this, but he didn't say a word, he just stared at her with a smile, and the Wang Po who was looking straight at her couldn't help but start a void, and emphasized again in a short breath: "What the old slave said is true!" ”
"You old thief, but you have a good mouth that can speak," Shen Zhi hooked his lips slightly, but said, "But why should I believe you?" ”
"Even if you can betray the Rong clan who have served for many years today, who can guarantee that you will bite me back as soon as you are free?" Shen Zhi sneered.
Wang Po was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting her to say this.
In her opinion, Shen Zhi and the Rong family have been at odds for so many years, and they have been framed and bullied by the Rong mother and daughter, and Shen Zhi must have hated the Rong mother and daughter in his heart.
At this time, she offered to help the other party point out the dirty things that the Rong family had done, and reveal the true face of the Rong family's viciousness, such a good opportunity to take the opportunity to defeat the Rong family, shouldn't the other party gladly accept it.
The handle of the Rong clan she was holding in her hand shouldn't be what Shen Zhi dreamed of.
Why is Shen Zhi still so calm?!
Wang Po looked at Shen Zhi with a look of surprise in her eyes.
However, Shen Zhi's expression was very calm, even calm to the point of calmness, as if what she proposed really did not attract her in the slightest.
Wang Po was really panicked now, what she originally wanted was to take the opportunity to exchange the handle of the Rong clan in her hand, so that Shen Zhi could rescue her from this dungeon.
I have never considered the possibility that Shen Zhi will be unmoved.
The Rong family has been imprisoned in the ancestral hall and can't do anything, and if she doesn't wait for an opportunity to escape, she will inevitably be dragged out for interrogation and torture like those subordinates.
She is an old bone at such an age, where can she stand those methods, if she doesn't recruit, she will die, and if she does, she will die, no matter how you look at it, it is a dead end!
If she wasn't really desperate, how could she take the risk to buy the guards to find Shen Zhi.
But who would have thought that Shen Zhi would not play cards according to common sense!
Wang Po's complexion changed again and again, and the expression on her face could be described as wonderful, and she couldn't squeeze out a word for half a sound.
Shen Zhi hooked his lips slightly, and the mockery in his eyes loomed, but he said coldly: "It turns out that the princess hasn't figured out her identity yet, but she is just a slave who is about to go to see Lord Yama at any time, and she dares to talk to me about a deal?" ”
"Rong's handle, it's only a matter of time before I find it, but if you think about your old life, you won't be able to live to that day, right?"
When the last sentence fell, Wang Po was shocked, her face suddenly turned pale, and her figure also fell.
After half a sound, she said hoarsely in a low voice: "What the second miss said is that the old slave only begs the second miss to be merciful and help the old slave, and in the future, the old slave will be a cow and a horse, and he will not forget the kindness of the second miss." ”
"You said you know the handle of the Rong family, would the Rong family be so careless as to let you keep her handle?" Shen Zhi asked.
At this time, Wang Po had also learned to be obedient, and she didn't dare to hold the attitude of Fang Cai anymore, and only said respectfully when she heard the words, "The old slave will secretly leave some evidence every time he helps his wife do something, and this time he also prepared two copies of the same picture scroll in advance, and later only destroyed one of them when he went to burn it, and the other one was secretly hidden in a very secret place by the old slave, and the lady didn't know it." ”
"If there is a master, there will be a slave." Shen Zhi sneered.
Wang Po lowered her head, and Nuo Nuo didn't dare to speak.
On the side, he reminded him: "Miss, the time is almost up, and if you stay any longer, you will be suspicious." ”
Shen Zhi nodded, but looked at Wang Po, this time his face was very cold, but he stared at her face and said word by word: "I'll ask you one more thing, if you can give me the answer I want, I'll help you this time." ”
"How was my mother killed by the Rong clan back then, and who else knows the truth of the matter back then?"
This question instantly made Wang Po's face white.
But he raised his head in horror and said in a lost voice: "How did you know about this? ”
Shen Zhi smiled coldly, the chill in his eyes was as sharp as a man: "It seems that my guess is right, you really know." ”
Only then did Wang Po realize that she had missed her mouth, her face was as white as paper, and her body trembled like a fallen leaf in the cold wind for a moment, trembling non-stop.
