Chapter 215: Unintentional Mistakes or Ill-intentioned Intentions
Xue Nuo's shoulders trembled slightly, and he couldn't hold back his laughter, but Shen next to him couldn't hold back his face because of Shen Changrui's trouble, and he reprimanded angrily: "Who told you this!" ”
"What's wrong with that?" Shen Changrui is innocent.
It's not because he's done something wrong, why is it like his grandfather is on top, it's scary.
Shen was originally quite serious, but he only felt that his brain hurt when Shen Changrui made such a fuss, and he glanced at Shen Changrui and only felt that his hands were itchy and wanted to pump him.
Next to him, Xue Nuo smiled at him: "I'll just tell you and ask directly, you have to scare him first." She said to Shen Changrui, "Your eldest brother wants to ask you, didn't you send some ink strips to Flynn Courtyard before, do you remember?" ”
"I remember." Shen Changrui said, "That's a good thing I got with great difficulty, how about it, is the ink easier to use than usual?" ”
Shen glared at him: "It's very useful." "It almost cost him and Xue Nuo's lives.
Xue Nuo held back a smile and asked, "Where did the ink strip come from?" ”
Shen Changrui said casually: "Second brother, that's right." ”
Xue Nuo couldn't help but glance at Shen Ke when he heard this, and saw that his eyebrows were slightly locked.
Shen Changrui also wrote triumphantly: "A few days ago, the second brother didn't know where to get some good ink, and he showed off to me and the third brother on the side of the clan study, and then I asked Shen Yuechan and said that my father specially brought it back to the second brother, I thought that this kind of good thing could be given to him, so I pestered my father for a long time before he promised to let the second brother give me half of it." ”
"I used it myself, and I saw that the ink was rich, not dizzy on the paper, and there was a faint fragrance of flowers with it, thinking that the third brother didn't give Arnold an inkstone, I simply sent her the ink strip, this Arnold has it, the eldest brother and the third brother must have it, so I gave some to the two of you."
Shen looked calm: "Changlin also has it?" ”
Shen Changrui said: "Yes, but he didn't want more, so he only took two." ”
Shen asked him, "Then do you still have it there?" ”
Shen Changrui nodded: "There are a few more, big brother, are you running out, if you run out, I'll let Shouzhen take it and send it to you later." ”
Xue Nuotuan was on the couch, his fingers unconsciously picking at the embroidery on the pillow, seeing that Shen Changrui didn't notice anything wrong, he couldn't help but say: "You should be eating ink, how can the half of the box of ink strips be used up so quickly, but you said that you took half of it from the second son, are you sure he still has half of it?" ”
Shen Changrui hesitated and said: "There should be more, he refused to give it to me at that time, I pestered my father to come forward, and he picked and searched and gave me those two small boxes, with the temperament of the second brother, how could he give me all such good things, and he had to keep half of them." ”
"Have you seen him use it?" Xue Nuo asked.
Shen Changrui nodded: "I used it, didn't I say it, it was because he used it in the clan science side that I saw it." ”
Shen Ke's eyebrows tightened: "Are you sure that Changrong used the same ink as the one he gave you later, and except for that time in the clan study, have you ever seen him use this ink after that?" ”
Shen Changrui saw that the two of them had been asking, and he also faintly noticed that something was wrong, he thought about it carefully before saying: "It should be the same, when he told me with a smug look, it seems that this ink is extraordinarily powerful, and I have secretly smelled the paper he wrote, and there is indeed a very faint floral fragrance on it, which is the same as the taste of the ink strip." ”
"There are silver flowers engraved on the ink strip, which is very rare to look at, and later I saw that the second brother used it several times, and I always carried it with me."
After he finished speaking, he said with some hesitation,
"Big brother, what are you asking for, is there something wrong with this ink strip?"
Shen listened to Shen Changrui's words, his face was slightly better, and even Xue Nuo next to him couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
These ink strips were obviously sent into the Shen family by someone who passed through the second room and through Shen Changrong.
If Shen Changrong used it himself, it could barely be said that he and Shen Zhengyu were kept in the dark and used by others, but if the ink strip he gave to Shen Changrui was different from the one he used, and even only used it once when he used the ink strip as bait to lure Shen Changrui in that ethnography, then the meaning would be great.
One is an unintentional mistake.
One is ill-intentioned.
Even if Shen Changrong always likes to compare with Shen on weekdays, he is arrogant and discordant with his younger siblings in the house, and even the second room has always had a bad relationship with the big house, but Shen never wants to see Shen Changrong have a vicious mind to gang up with outsiders to harm his relatives.
That's not naivety and ignorance, it's viciousness.
Shen sighed lightly, and said to Shen Changrui, who looked worried: "There are some poisonous things mixed in this ink strip, if you keep using it, it can make people weak and crazy, the ones you gave me are okay because they are useless, but Arnold used some, and he almost made a big deal last night." ”
Shen Changrui's face changed: "Arnold is poisoned?" ”
Seeing that he was nervous, Xue Nuo said softly: "No, I only used half an ink strip, and I haven't had time to get poisonous, it's just because there are some things in the body-tonifying decoction I took before that poison, so I will find out in advance." ”
Shen Changrui's face was still pale, he didn't expect that the thing he grabbed back was actually poisonous, and he didn't expect to almost hurt Xue Nuo and his eldest brother.
"Isn't it ...... father and second brother," Shen Changrui's palms trembled.
"Don't be cranky!" Shen saw that his face was ugly and angry, and said to him, "Don't lie until the matter is clear." ”
Shen Changrui gritted his teeth.
Shen said to him: "I came to you to ask you about the origin of this ink, and I don't know who wants to harm us at the moment, so you just need to know about this matter, don't make a noise for the time being, so as not to startle the snake." ”
"After you go back, pack the remaining ink strips and send them over, I will also ask people to ask for them in Changlin, you can find a way to pester the second uncle and ask him to ask for some more of this ink, just say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took all the ink you gave me after looking at these inks, and you still want to ask for some more, see if you can find out where this ink strip came from."
Xue Nuo saw that Shen Changrui's mind did not belong, and his childish face was even more suspicious.
She couldn't help but say aloud beside her: "Don't be afraid, this thing can hurt people when you don't know, and it's okay if you know, the important thing now is to find out who sent this thing into the house, if your eldest brother asks in person, it will definitely alarm the people behind the scenes." ”
"It's like you're messing around with your father and them on weekdays, just if you want to compete for favor and ask for something you like, it's okay to sprinkle and roll around, and if you really can't ask, it's not in the way, we'll find another way."
Shen Changrui held his breath in his heart, and after carefully writing down the words of the two, he couldn't help but say, "Big brother, it's really not my father and second brother?" ”
