Chapter 37: Portraits

But the living people had little strength to bury them, so they could only cover the corpses with some hay.

Then continue on your way.

This is happening in different places.

The other side.

Old Marquis Shen sent some people to take the dowry list when Shen Shuyuan got married, and prepared to go to Jizhou to find Zhou Mingshuai to ask for the dowry.

After all, he is old, and it is unrealistic to go in person.

And Shen He also has to go to court every day, and it is impossible to go over in person.

Jizhou is about ten days away from the capital to ride a horse, and it takes about a month to ride a carriage.

Lingshuang Pavilion.

The three heads sat in a row, staring at Shen Qingshuang grinding medicinal herbs.

Seeing this, Xiang Zhi wanted to laugh very much, and held back again.

I can't blame her, it's really this picture that is too joyful.

At first, it was just Miss Biao who followed her own lady back to the yard.

Later, the young master and the second lady also followed.

The three of them didn't speak when they came to the courtyard, and sat there watching Shen Qingshuang work in the same way.

Shen Qingshuang didn't seem to notice their gaze, and she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

At noon that day, Gu Yuanxiu sent another letter.

said that he had found a stronghold of the person behind the scenes, and asked Shen Qingshuang if he wanted to go.

Shen Qingshuang put down the medicinal herbs in his hand, got up and wrote to him back.

Her disciple of Qingmen Valley was also arrested, and of course she wanted to see who did it and what the purpose was.

Early the next morning.

Shen Qingshuang had breakfast, cleaned up briefly, and was ready to go out.

The three little tails behind him followed suit.

"I'm going to go out on errands, so don't follow me today." Shen Qingshuang turned around and said to Zhou Jinghan helplessly.

Zhou Jinghan stopped, and suddenly Lingling's big eyes stared at her.

She couldn't say why, it was obviously the first time she had seen this beautiful cousin, but smelling the fragrance of medicine on her body, she was very secure.

But she had just experienced a change in her family, and she was afraid that her cousin would dislike her, so she rarely spoke.

"Cousin, when will you be back?" Zhou Jinghan said.

Shen Qingshuang shook her head, "I don't know. ”

Zhou Jinghan nodded, glanced at her younger siblings again, and said to Shen Qingshuang, "We'll wait for my cousin to come back." ”

Shen Qingshuang was a little helpless, "Okay." ”

She didn't bring incense or shiso this time.

After all, these two maids are powerless, and she is worried that she will not be able to protect them.

In the letter, she and Gu Yuanxiu agreed to meet at the city gate.

The horses were ready, and Shen Qingshuang rode straight to the city gate.

There were also several men riding horses at the gates.

The person at the head has an ordinary face, but his aura is so powerful that people dare not look at him directly.

Seeing Shen Qingshuang appear, a very happy smile appeared on his face.

It's a little handsome to line that ordinary face.

"Ah Shuang!"

Listening to the unfamiliar voice coming out of his mouth, Shen Qingshuang was a little surprised that he could still change his voice.

The voice was not at all audible, it was his original voice.

"Have you waited a long time?"

Gu Yuanxiu shook his head, "Not long after, I just arrived. ”

Shen Qingshuang nodded and glanced at the sky, "Then let's go!" ”

The group went out of the city gate and went straight south, and after about an hour and a half, they came to the foot of a mountain.

From the outside, it looks like a remote village, with only a few scattered homes.

The other houses were either locked or empty, and it was unknown where the people had gone.

Gu Yuanxiu nodded slightly to his subordinates, and the subordinates conveniently dismounted.

Shen Qingshuang found that Gu Yuanxiu's subordinates didn't make a sound at all, whether they were dismounting or walking.

This skill is really not ordinarily good.

A temple worthy of the head of the Seven Powers.

The subordinate knocked on the courtyard door, and after a short time there were footsteps, and an old voice rang out, "Who?" ”

"We're here to find someone!"

When the words fell, the people in the courtyard paused, and then the old voice sounded again, "There is no one you are looking for here!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yuanxiu's subordinate had already kicked open the courtyard door, "You didn't even open the door, how did you know that there was no one we were looking for inside?" ”

Shen Qingshuang was kicked open with the courtyard door and saw the people inside.

There is no old man, it is clearly a middle-aged man about thirty years old.

When the man saw them, his expression changed dramatically, and he turned around and prepared to run.

was kicked away by Gu Yuanxiu's men.

The others also turned over and dismounted, and ran into the house to search.

Shen Qingshuang walked quickly in front of the middle-aged man, and was just about to remove his chin, when she saw the man's eyes widen when he looked at her, and then blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth, and his head was crooked and he committed suicide by taking poison.

The people in the courtyard were also captured by Gu Yuanxiu's men at this time, but before they could react, these people committed suicide by taking poison one after another.

Shen Qingshuang checked on them and found no tokens or anything like that.

"Master, here is a portrait of Miss Shen!"

The voice of one of his men was heard.

Shen Qingshuang and Gu Yuanxiu glanced at each other and hurriedly ran over.

I saw a picture of a beautiful woman hanging on the wall of the main hall of this courtyard hall.

The painting is lifelike.

But who can the beauty in the painting be if she is not Shen Qingshuang?

Gu Yuanxiu stepped forward and removed the painting.

Then he put it in his arms.

Shen Qingshuang, "......"

She didn't have time to explore how her portrait could be hung here, but she saw a button on the wall of the portrait that was uncovered by Gu Yuanxiu. The voice of one of his men was heard.
