"Madam, these people have all been deceived!"

Shen Mingjiao folded her confession and said without raising her head: "I know this!" Listen to these people, what is it called a slave? ”

Doctor Wu gritted his teeth and said, "This Gu technique is almost lost, it was first used by the clan to interrogate prisoners, but I don't want to be used for such purposes!" ”

Shen Mingjiao shrugged: "What's the use of talking about this now?" Since the other party can do so many things, it is difficult to expect to be a good person!

Other than that, what else do you see you don't see? ”

Doctor Wu frowned: "It's very strange, this Gu is not a high-level Gu technique, but it is the same as the previous love Gu. ”

Shen Mingjiao turned her head. Raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you mean, the effect of this slave Gu has been strengthened!"

In short, if it weren't for her Gu magic being better than all of you, it had something to do with those strange stones. ”

……

On the way back, passing by a jewelry shop, Shen Mingjiao didn't care, after all, she wasn't in the capital at the moment, and she didn't have time to go shopping.

At this time, Fuguang tugged at her sleeve and pointed to a notice posted in front of the store.

Shen Mingjiao followed her line of sight and couldn't help but stare at her.

The sign said that their store had diamond jewelry that is now highly sought after in Beijing.

As we all know, diamond jewelry is only sold in their beautiful pavilion, and because of the complicated cutting process, the finished products launched are limited, and most of them are booked in advance.

And most of the people who can afford to buy diamond jewelry are either rich or expensive, and these people should not bother to resell them

In the middle of her thoughts, Shen Mingjiao had already raised her feet and entered the store, waving her hand to let the Wu Taiyi and the others go back first.

Maybe because of such a gimmick, the business of this store is quite good.

As soon as the female shopkeeper saw what the person was wearing, she immediately greeted her with a smile:

"I wonder what this lady wants to buy? Our store has just arrived with a batch of the latest jewelry. ”

Shen Mingjiao smiled politely and asked directly: "I heard that your store sells diamond jewelry?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his smile was more genuine, but his tone was hesitant: "Yes, yes, but the price is ......."

Shen Mingjiao raised her chin, "The price is easy to say, please take us to see the jewelry first." A tone that is not bad for money.

The shopkeeper hurriedly led people up to the second floor, and like the larger jewelry shops nowadays, valuable goods were placed on the second floor.

Shen Mingjiao's gaze stayed on the two sets of heads placed in the most eye-catching places, one set with crystal-colored diamonds, and the other with blue, but one earring was missing.

And the missing earring is the one that Feng Lisheng found in the Qishan bandits' den that day.

Shen Mingjiao retracted her gaze and asked quietly: "I heard that this diamond is only sold in the beautiful pavilion in the capital, I don't know where the goods came from in your store?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly explained with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, madam, this jewelry was pawned by a merchant a day ago. "It means that this is the way to go.

Shen Mingjiao: "Does the shopkeeper know where the merchant is now?" She said proudly: "As long as the shopkeeper can find the merchant again, I will pay double the price of these two sets of jewelry." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, the look on his face couldn't help but bring some respect, without him, Xianyang County is thousands of miles away from the capital, except for those who specialize in jewelry business, no one knows about the existence of diamonds, let alone the extent to which diamonds have been sought after by the circle of ladies in Beijing.

She became more and more sure that Shen Mingjiao and the others had extraordinary backgrounds, and the merchant naturally wanted to buy more diamond jewelry.

The shopkeeper tactfully persuaded: "It's not difficult to find the merchant, it's just ...... According to the little woman, this diamond jewelry is precious, and the merchant is afraid that it was also obtained by chance. ”

Shen Mingjiao waved her hand indifferently: "It's okay, the shopkeeper just needs to help find someone." ”

When the shopkeeper saw this, he no longer persuaded him, after all, who would be unable to get along with money when he opened the door to do business.

At this time, a woman wearing a veil came to the store, and the woman was supported by two maids, followed by a large number of servants, and the pomp and circumstance were quite sufficient.

Wherever the group passed, there was a whisper behind them. Most of them say that this woman is not a serious person at first glance, and Yomo is an outer room raised by an adult.

The woman slowly walked to the second floor, stared at the diamond hairpin held by Shen Mingjiao in her hand, walked over in a few steps, and said sharply: "Wrap this set of heads and noodles for me." ”

When the guests saw this, their hearts were really arrogant and favored concubines. The shopkeeper smiled embarrassedly:

"I'm sorry, this set of jewelry was first taken by this lady, why don't you look at anything else, we just got a lot of new ...... in our store"

The woman interrupted her impatiently: "How much money she pays, I pay double!" ”

After that, he took a few steps closer to Shen Mingjiao, raised his chin and said impatiently:

"What about you? This hairpin is mine, put it down for me. ”

The two maids who were holding the woman tightened their wrists and persuaded softly: "Madam." It's not early, I'm afraid it's ...... if I'm going back late."

No one present felt that there was anything wrong with this, but they felt that this woman was too arrogant.

Shen Mingjiao finally turned her head when she heard this, glanced at the woman's veiled face, and said lightly: "This lady, I offended you before?" ”

The woman seemed to feel offended, and directly slashed her hand to snatch the hairpin in Shen Mingjiao's hand: "Give it back to me, it's mine." ”

There was an exclamation in the store, no one expected that this woman would start directly, but the first to react were the two maids who followed the woman.

The two of them pulled the woman over and whispered, "Madam, we should go back!" As he spoke, he half-dragged the woman towards the staircase.

The woman struggled desperately: "Let go of me, that's my jewelry......"

Shen Mingjiao pinched the extra note in her hand, and directly instructed the Ming behind her: "Arrest the person for me." ”

Although Shen Mingjiao is disguised, her demeanor and temperament are there, which makes people see at a glance that she is not an ordinary person. Everyone only thought that she was going to teach this woman a lesson, and they were all happy to watch the play.

Seeing this, the two maids pulled the woman down the stairs a few times, and deftly bypassed the guests in the lobby to the outside of the store.

However, they naturally could not be the opponents of the underworld, and as soon as they left the store and were about to get into the carriage, the two of them felt their arms numb.

The woman seized the opportunity to break free from the grip and ran forward desperately.

At this time, Shen Mingjiao slowly walked out of the store, and when the woman saw her, she turned around and came back, pulling Shen Mingjiao's sleeve:

"The king... Princess... You help me. ”

The seven or eight servant women who followed the woman at first also reacted, hurriedly came over and raised their hands to grab the woman, and the two guards left outside by Shen Mingjiao also joined in, and the scene was chaotic.

The shopkeeper finally realized that something was wrong, and hurried to the guy in the store to report to the official.

The woman was frightened, and pulled Shen Mingjiao's sleeve to the side of the alley.

Shen Mingjiao let her drag her until the noisy sound in her ears was a little farther away, and the woman let out a strong breath, raised her hand to take off the veil, and knelt down with a plop:

"Princess...... Do you remember me? I ......"

Shen Mingjiao hurriedly helped the person up, "Jianing, why are you here?" ”

This woman is what Shen Mingjiao said when she was in Qishan before, the owner of the earring, the youngest daughter of the eldest princess of Yong'an, the county lord of Jianing.

The county lord of Jianing wiped his tears: "I quarreled with my mother, and I was angry for a while and took the guards to go to Shu to find my brother, but unexpectedly, I encountered robbers on the way, and all the accompanying guards were killed, I ...... I was taken captive into ...... mountain."

This is similar to their previous guesses. Shen Mingjiao asked, "Then how did you get out?" ”

"I... Three months ago, the bandits came out of the mountains and came to ...... Ahem......"

The county lord of Jianing didn't look very well, and without saying a few words, he covered his chest and coughed.

Shen Mingjiao was hearing the key point, and couldn't help but lean closer, raised her hand and gently patted her back:

"Don't worry, let's go back first......"

Before the words fell, she saw the woman with her head down suddenly raise her hand, and the handkerchief with the drug in her hand quickly covered Shen Mingjiao's mouth. An eerie sneer appeared on his face.

However, the next moment, her smile froze at the corner of her mouth, and just as the handkerchief was about to touch Shen Mingjiao's cheek, her arm was grabbed by someone.

Immediately afterwards, the floating light, which had no sense of existence, swept silently in front of him, and the movement quickly clasped the woman's hands.

The woman raised her head in disbelief, glared at Shen Mingjiao, and blurted out, "How did you find out?" ”
