Chapter 109: Cocooning Yourself

Everyone else was left in the hall, Xiao Shuyong only took Xiao Ranjie, Xiao Lingxiao and the four princes to the study, fortunately, this study was only a place for Xiao Shuyong to study calligraphy and painting on weekdays, and he did not deal with affairs here, so he gave the four princes enough face and asked him to come along to testify.

A few lamps illuminated the study, and Xiao Shuyong took a cursory inspection and found that everything was in order here, and there was no sign of thieves sneaking in. Before he could speak, he heard Xiao Ranjie suddenly scream, bending down and picking up something from the ground.

A few people looked over, and saw Xiao Ranjie handing over a handkerchief to Xiao Shuyong, and said with pride in his tone, "This handkerchief must have been left by the person who destroyed the painting, right?" This is what women use, eldest sister, do you think this shows that the person who came to destroy the painting is a woman? left in the middle of the banquet, and it was a woman again, so the eldest sister shouldn't quibble anymore. ”

Xiao Shuyong only glanced at the peach-colored handkerchief, then gritted his teeth and threw the handkerchief at Xiao Lingxiao, and said angrily, "Little beast! What else do you have to say! ”

Xiao Lingxiao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Xiao Ranjie, thinking to herself, you rabbit cub just came back and used this insidious trick against me? Then I, Xiao Lingxiao, also let you know what it means to know what the three eyes of the prince of Ma are!

Xiao Ranjie framed Xiao Lingxiao, and what he did was seamless, no one would have thought that he would be able to destroy the priceless treasure in order to frame Xiao Lingxiao, and Xiao Lingxiao's departure on the way seemed to be just accidental, even if Xiao Lingxiao took out the note now, no one would believe her words. Now with the addition of a veil, this seems to be untenable evidence, but it is more convincing. Xiao Shuyong doesn't need so much real evidence in court to punish Xiao Lingxiao, as long as there is such an excuse and evidence, it is enough.

However, when Xiao Ranjie was secretly happy, he didn't expect Xiao Lingxiao that she was not an ordinary woman.

Xiao Lingxiao said to the divine wolf in a dark voice, "We have to clean up this little rabbit cub today." ”

The divine wolf also saw that Xiao Ranjie was not pleasing to the eye, and immediately replied to Xiao Lingxiao, "Don't worry, master." ”

Xiao Lingxiao sneered, leaned over to pick up the handkerchief that fell to the ground, stroked it lightly with his hand, and then unfolded the handkerchief and took a closer look at the candlelight, and then pretended to be surprised and said, "This handkerchief is ......."

The four princes were observing their words and expressions on the side, and they could see that nine times out of ten, Xiao Ranjie was the obstruction of this matter, and deliberately targeted Xiao Lingxiao. But he didn't break the matter, because Xiao Lingxiao is important, but with Xiao Ranjie's current momentum, he is likely to be the successor of the Xiao family in the future, and even in the court, he will have enough influence, so this person must not be offended. However, the fourth prince also hates the arrogant Xiao Ranjie very much, he wishes that Xiao Lingxiao could take the opportunity to suppress him, it is best to get rid of this guy, so that he will have less trouble in the future.

Seeing Xiao Lingxiao looking at the handkerchief and exclaiming, the fourth prince was overjoyed in his heart, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern, "What's wrong Lingxiao?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao unfolded the veil and pointed to a corner to show the four princes, "Fourth Highness, look, what kind of picture is this, what kind of word is it?" ”

The four princes took a closer look, and smiled more happily in their hearts, the handkerchief was clearly embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the water lines under the feet of the two mandarin ducks were also embroidered with exquisite small characters, and then look carefully, the small characters under one mandarin duck are "Yan Tao", and the small characters under the other mandarin duck are "Ran Jie".

Looking at the vulgar color of this veil, the four princes immediately recognized that this veil was clearly a token given by a vulgar woman to Xiao Ranjie for pleasure.

Xiao Shuyong saw that the four princes looked at the handkerchief carefully, and his face was not quite right, so he hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the handkerchief from Xiao Lingxiao's hand to take a closer look. It's okay not to look at it, but when he saw it, he immediately reacted, and he was secretly shocked in his heart, could it be that his son, who seemed to be knowledgeable, dared to go to those fireworks places without telling him! If it weren't for that, how could there be such a veil!

Xiao Ranjie saw that even his father's face changed, and he was even more puzzled. The veil was prepared by him for his subordinates, is there anything wrong with the veil?

Xiao Ranjie stepped forward with a puzzled face, but he didn't expect Xiao Shuyong to turn around and slam the handkerchief on his face. Xiao Ranjie was stunned for a moment, and when he carefully looked at the mandarin duck playing in the water and the small words below, the whole person was stunned.

How can it be! How could the word this picture appear out of thin air on this veil! Could it be that Xiao Lingxiao dropped the bag? Impossible! Could it be that she knew that she was going to be framed, so she prepared in advance? It's unbelievable!

Xiao Lingxiao watched Xiao Ranjie's face change from iron blue to miserable white, and she couldn't stop laughing in her heart. It's just a little bit of manipulation on a handkerchief, and it's not difficult for the wolf to be at all.

"Could this peach be the girl that the second brother loves? Otherwise, presumably the second brother would not have brought such a gaudy veil with him. In the future, you must collect such things, and the eldest sister almost couldn't argue because of you, who was accidentally wronged. ”

After Xiao Lingxiao finished speaking, she said to Xiao Shuyong, who was about to explode, "Father, in my opinion, no matter how valuable the painting is, it has been ruined, and it is not interesting to pursue it or not." But the second brother is the hope of the Xiao family in the future, if he ruins his reputation and ruins his future because of one or two 'Yan Tao' or something, the Xiao family's loss will be great. ”

As soon as Xiao Ranjie heard Xiao Lingxiao's words, he immediately became angry, "Xiao Lingxiao, don't spew blood!" This veil is not mine! I don't know any peach at all! ”

Xiao Lingxiao saw that he was angry, but smiled a little brighter, "I don't understand when the second brother said this, you said that when the four of us came in, why didn't anyone find such a gorgeous and piercing veil on the ground, but the second brother found it?" If you want me to say, it must have been the second brother who accidentally dropped the veil, and then he was in a hurry to help his father find the person who destroyed the painting, so there was this mistake. ”

"You!" This study is not very spacious, and when they came in, the veil was indeed not on the ground, Xiao Ranjie thought that as long as he got a "evidence" casually, it was enough to force Xiao Lingxiao to death, so he didn't pay too much attention to deal with it, but he didn't expect that this would become a death hole that forced him to death! A cold sweat suddenly broke out on Xiao Ranjie's forehead.

"Besides." Xiao Lingxiao continued to help analyze as if her ghost was gone, "If the destruction of the painting is not something that someone deliberately wants to frame someone, it must have happened by accident, so this veil will naturally not be prepared by anyone in advance." The word 'Ran Jie' under the mandarin duck playing in the water can be embroidered clearly, this stitch and thread are the mind of the 'Yan Tao' girl, if the second brother does not admit it, I am afraid that it will hurt the girl's heart. ”

"Xiao Lingxiao!" Xiao Ranjie is full of economic exports on weekdays, but he didn't expect that in the face of Xiao Lingxiao's soft words today, he couldn't even say a word of rebuttal.

Although Xiao Lingxiao only said a few words, it made Xiao Shuyong and the four princes on the side suddenly open.

Neither of them is a fool, if you think about it before and after, you can find that all this was done by Xiao Ranjie deliberately trying to frame Xiao Lingxiao, the four princes just watched a family scandal and laughed secretly, but Xiao Shuyong was sifted by anger.

Xiao Ranjie is his favorite son, and because of this, he is even more angry that this son is acting so recklessly. Dealing with Xiao Lingxiao, is it such a simple trap to become a success? Could it be that he, Xiao Ranjie, thought that everyone else was stupid, so he let Xiao Lingxiao run rampant for so long? He's too proud! What's more, he actually ruined a priceless masterpiece for the sake of Xiao Lingxiao, which is simply a tyrannical thing!

It took a long time for Xiao Shuyong to pass this breath, he bowed his hand to the four princes with a dark face, and said, "Trouble the fourth highness, what Ling Xiao said makes sense, compared to the painting, I should discipline and discipline the rebels in my family more." He also invited His Royal Highness to return to the hall for a banquet. ”

The fourth prince knew that it was absolutely not suitable for him to stay here anymore with his identity, so he hurriedly put on a smiling face and bowed his hand to Xiao Shuyong, turned around and walked out. But as soon as he turned around, he heard Xiao Lingxiao's voice behind him, "Your Highness, Lingxiao will go with you." ”

Xiao Lingxiao's cold words fell into the ears of the four princes, and they didn't know how to become extremely soft and lovely. The fourth prince was surprised and delighted, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Lingxiao walking up to him, smiling at him as if he were nothing, and the heart of the fourth prince suddenly skipped a beat.

The two of them left the study, and Xiao Shuyong lowered his voice and yelled at Xiao Ranjie, "You useless thing, do you have no head or are you crazy!" ”

Xiao Ranjie has always been talented in posture and favored by his father, but this is the first time he has been abused by his father like this. He felt a grievance in his heart, and tears almost fell out. Fortunately, there is still room for maneuver in this matter, seeing that his framing of Xiao Lingxiao was exposed, and his father did not protect Xiao Lingxiao between his words, Xiao Ranjie hurriedly stepped forward and knelt in Xiao Shuyong's ear, lowered his voice and said, "Father, don't be impatient, Han Zezhi's painting has not been destroyed, the painting in the hall is fake!" ”

"What did you say?" Xiao Shuyong still felt sorry for the baby painting in the end, and when he heard Xiao Ranjie say that the painting was not destroyed, his anger really disappeared a lot.

Such a good painting, it is really not worth destroying for Xiao Lingxiao such a pig and dog as a thing, it just so happens that Xiao Ranjie has copied another painting after he got it, although it is not as good as the original in various aspects, but if it is splashed with ink, it can't be seen if you don't look carefully. The real treasure has been put back into his own study by his scholar, Xiao Ranjie explained everything to his father, and took Xiao Shuyong to his study quietly to see the real painting.

But when the two of them came to Xiao Ranjie's study, they were shocked to find that the long scroll had been spread out on the ground, and the scroll had already been splashed with ink!

Xiao Shuyong saw this situation, his heart throbbed again, this time he lay on the ground and carefully looked at the destroyed painting, and made sure that this one was definitely the real thing. In other words, the authentic work that Han Zezhi spent nearly half his life painting was destroyed like this!

"Rebel...... Unfilial son! ”

Xiao Shuyong patted the destroyed painting and roared.

Xiao Ranjie stared at the painting blankly, his face was extremely pale, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave.

On the other side, Xiao Lingxiao and the four princes walked side by side silently, and when they walked out of the courtyard where Xiao Shuyong's study was located, the four princes couldn't wait to ask Xiao Lingxiao softly, "Lingxiao said that she had something to say to me at that time, what did you say?" ”
