Chapter 036: Hot Potato

As soon as Shen Ji's voice came, before he entered the house, Liu Si seemed to notice something, and his face suddenly changed.

"Girl, that person is here again, I—I can't stand it, so I'll hide out for a while." After Liu Si said this hurriedly, he ran through the wall in a puff of smoke.

He spoke so quickly and so fast that the magpie didn't even know what was going on.

When she looked at Shen Lingxi and was about to ask questions, Shen Ji had already led someone into the house.

"Ah!!!h

Shen Lingxi only heard a magpie scream, and saw that she was like a ball, and was violently and violently ejected from the roof.

The screams faded from near to far.

The room was finally quiet.

Don't say it, just pay it back...... It's pretty cool.

Shen Lingxi didn't suppress the smile on the corner of his lips, and his clear and crystal eyes looked behind Shen Ji---

I saw Mu Huai'an wearing an official uniform, followed by a man dressed as a guard in a dark robe.

The man is tall and straight, his eyes are indifferent and cold, and his momentum is a little terrifying, but his appearance is mediocre, and he looks at his eyes.

Shen Lingxi was good at burying corpses, and Yi Rong was not a problem, and he could see at a glance that the other party had a human skin mask on his face.

If it weren't for the magpie being bounced out like this.

Shen Lingxi may not be able to recognize it, this is His Royal Highness Chu Yan, who has disappeared for a few days.

The last time he pretended to be a Confucian student, and this time he pretended to be a cold-faced guard.

I have to say that this person has a very accurate grasp of the temperament of each appearance.

I don't know what his purpose is to come to Xuanping Hou's Mansion in disguise.

Mu Huai'an also laughed when he saw Shen Lingxi smiling at him.

He was already handsome, and his peach blossom eyes were born with three points of affection, so he smiled, and under the background of the scarlet official uniform, there was more of the beautiful vitality of "freshly dressed angry horse boy".

Old Madam Wang's gaze turned back and forth on the faces of the two, and she was very relieved.

She has already repaired the book to the ancestor of the Mu family, revealing the idea of wanting to make the two of them a pair, and the other party also has this intention.

Now I just need to find a suitable opportunity, find out with the two, and ask the two of them what they mean, and the Mu family will come to the door to propose marriage one day.

The two sides met and sat down.

Chu Yan, who was pretending to be a guard, stood directly behind Mu Huai'an.

Mu Huai'an's status in front of him has never been so "noble", it is like sitting on pins and needles, and he can't take the initiative to say hello for a while.

In order to avoid being cold, Shen Ji saw Shen Lingxi holding a piece of paper in her hand, standing next to her, knowing that she had been here with the ancestor for the past few days, doing some strange things to please the ancestor, so he smiled and asked casually, "What were you talking about when I came in just now?" ā€

At critical times, this halfway dad is always on the road.

Shen Lingxi's face deliberately showed a little embarrassment, and he glanced at Old Madam Wang.

"It doesn't matter." Mrs. Wang was open in her heart, and she would not intentionally hide it from her, not to mention that she now regarded Mu Huai'an as her quasi-grandson-in-law, "Huai'an is not an outsider, if there is any problem in the treasury accounts, you can say it directly." ā€

Chu Yanjian's eyebrows were slightly raised, not an outsider?

Mu Huai'an was still not happy, and suddenly felt a little cold in the back of his neck.

He remembered that he had deceived the person behind him yesterday and said that the two family affairs were "put on hold", and he felt that the back of his neck was even colder.

And Shen Ji, who was opposite them, just wanted to give himself an ear scraper.

Oh, my God. How did he provoke such a talk?

A Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the one behind him...... It doesn't look like a real guard, but it's still embroidered to make a disguise.

In front of these two people, if there is really anything to say about the accounts of the treasury, isn't it a gift to the yamen for nothing?

"Five girls." Shen Jiqing coughed, "The accounts of this treasury are not in a hurry, it is better to ......"

How could Shen Lingxi give him a chance to be with the mud, pointing to the entry on the paper, and then opened his mouth to say the reason.

"Four months ago, when Liu Si was on duty in the warehouse, the second uncle took away a brocade box, and the catalog reads 'Silk Pine Crane Fan', but I heard Zhao's mother say that Liu Si accidentally dropped the box at that time, and what fell out of the box was an embroidered handkerchief that was cut off."

"Zhao's mother said that Liu Si thought that the manager of the warehouse had made a mistake and wanted to check it, but the second uncle said that there was no mistake, this is it, and he took the things away."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Liang's waist was straight, and his face was as calm as water, except for the lame, he stood on tiptoe a little, and he looked quite calm.

But Mrs. Wang's face changed a few times.

When Shen Ji heard the word "embroidered papa", he remembered Shen Lingxi's words yesterday, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked at Mu Huai'an.

Mu Huai'an had never heard of the matter of "embroidered papa", but Shen Lingxi said in the letter that he should "cooperate", and he would try his best to cooperate.

Sensing Shen Ji's gaze, he picked up the tea cup in his hand with an expressionless face and took a leisurely sip, looking like he was in control of everything and confident.

Shen Ji was bluffed by him, and subconsciously said: "Treasury, it's normal to make mistakes, your second uncle is kind-hearted, he can't bear to criticize his subordinates, and he just takes things away by mistake, what is worth saying." ā€

"That's what my father said." Shen Lingxi pretended not to notice the strangeness of everyone, and his face was a little embarrassed, "But this 'Silk Pine Crane Fan' is a gift from the emperor, how dare you slack off?" ā€

Imperial Gift.

The corners of Shen Ji's mouth twitched, no one dared to fan the wind with the fan given by the emperor.

Shen Lingxi looked at Shen Liang with a smile, "Second Uncle has taken the fan away for four months, and I haven't seen this fan in other warehouses, and the record is not correct." That's why I'm here to ask the second uncle today, how to fill in this record, is it written as 'embroidered papa', or is it written as a fan? If it is a fan, if the gift of the emperor is lost or destroyed, it is a crime of deception......"

In front of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, I will throw this hot potato to you, and see if you can catch it.

The expression on Shen Liang's face froze, and he quickly thought about how to speak---

"The fan is with me." Old Madam Wang suddenly raised her hand and pointed to the Bogu shelf on the west wall, "In the leftmost drawer, Erlang went to bring the fan and asked the five girls to bring it back to the warehouse." ā€

Shen Liang hurriedly responded.

The expression was slightly invisible, a little more relaxed, and the lame foot that stood on tiptoe unconsciously also fell safely. Walking briskly towards the Bogu shelf, sure enough, from the drawer, took out a brocade box.

Seeing this, Shen Lingxi confirmed two things.

First, the ancestor really didn't know about this matter.

Second, now that I know, the ancestor wants to protect Shen Liang.

But Shen Lingxi invited Mu Huai'an and gave an embroidered commander to be present, so how could he let go of this opportunity.

She took the brocade box, confirmed that it contained the fan, and said with a smile, "This will match." ā€

Old Madam Wang, Shen Liang, and Shen Ji all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next moment---

Shen Lingxi walked to the table, put down the brocade box, picked up the embroidered bandage with a few stitches, and quickly embroidered a few more stitches on it, outlining a rough outline.

She walked up to Shen Liang again, smiled and flattered: "Mother Zhao said that the embroidered handkerchief that the second uncle took by mistake that day has a unique embroidery, it is a double embroidery, the front is embroidered with mountains, and the back is embroidered with water. Second uncle, take a look, is it like what I embroidered? If the second uncle doesn't dislike it and takes out the embroidered handkerchief, I can repair it and restore it to its original state, okay? ā€
