Chapter 18: The True Colors of Heroes
Wei Shuyan took Xiao Yu to Qian Zhuang for a turn, since the last incident, Qian Zhuang has strengthened its manpower, every link is strictly guarded, everything is normal.
I went to various pawnshops, cloth villages, docks and other places for a turn, and then returned to Weifu.
Qiu Yue was placed in the Wei Mansion by Wei Shuyan as a cousin, and after hearing what happened to Qiu Yue, Xiao Yu expressed deep sympathy, and at the same time gritted her teeth at those inhuman animals.
When Wei Shuyan came back, Qiu Yue was locking herself in her room, and no one wanted to see her? I didn't even eat breakfast and lunch, because Wei Shuyan had orders, the people didn't dare to disturb, and they were afraid that something would happen, so they had to jump outside the door in a hurry.
Wei Shuyan is worried about what stupid thing Qiuyue is doing? He kicked the door open.
"Qiuyue, are you okay?" When she entered, Qiu Yue was sitting in front of the window in a daze, she didn't open the window, she just sat like that, her eyes were blank.
"Miss Wei," Wei Shuyan approached Qiu Yue before she reacted.
Wei Shuyan asked Xiao Yu to send all the people away, leaving only Xiao Yu and Qiuyue and the three of them.
"Xiao Yu closed the door and brought the food." Wei Shuyan said to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu: "Yes, Miss. ”
Wei Shuyan: "You haven't eaten for a day, come, drink this porridge!" ”
"Miss Wei, I," she said, glancing up at Xiao Yu.
Wei Shuyan seemed to see through Qiu Yue's thoughts, she explained: "This is Xiao Yu, we are a master and servant relationship on the surface, but in fact, she is like my own sister. ”
Qiu Yue thought that Wei Shuyan must be very trusting of the people she could bring with her, and she said with confidence: "Miss Wei, I have thought about what you said, I want to be strong, I don't want to be humiliated and trampled on anymore, I don't want to be powerless when I encounter that kind of situation again." ”
"But what should I do?" She has grown up doing nothing but serving tea and water, serving her master, and she doesn't even know a few big characters, so she really doesn't know what to do.
"So you're locking yourself in your room, is that what you're thinking?" Wei Shuyan and Xiao Yu glanced at each other and said, "As long as you have this determination, leave everything else to me." ”
Wei Shuyan grabbed Qiu Yue's hand: "From now on, your identity is my cousin, your name is Tang Zhiqin, and I ordered someone to teach you literacy and pass on your kung fu." Since you don't want to go back to Chen Wangfu, then everything in you needs to change, and from now on, you must become the real Tang Zhiqin. ”
Qiu Yue looked at her face in the mirror, and she said worriedly: "People who are familiar with me in Chen Wangfu, if they see me, they will definitely be able to recognize me." ”
"You can rest assured of this, there are many talented people in Weifu, and it is not difficult to change your appearance, but the appearance can help you transform, and you need to shape it yourself."
Du Hong has the highest martial arts in the Wei Mansion, and he once won the Jinshi, so Wei Shuyan handed Tang Zhiqin to him.
Although at the beginning, they both had some resistance to each other, because of the shadow of the past, Tang Zhiqin would tremble when she got close to the opposite sex, but she had to overcome it, which was also the first step for her to complete her transformation.
Tang Zhiqin's matter came to an end, and Wei Shuyan returned her focus to the fake silver ticket.
Xiao Yu: "Miss, what progress did you make last night?" ”
Xiaoyu lay on the bed for a night, although she was lying, she never closed her eyes, she was always worried about Wei Shuyan, and worried that Zhang Yan would suddenly come to find fault.
If you don't have the slightest harvest, then you will lie in vain.
Wei Shuyan took out a piece of something from under the bed, wrapped in a yellow cloth, which was thrown under the bed along with the night clothes when she was in a hurry this morning.
The two of them opened it curiously, and it was actually a printing plate of a silver ticket.
"Miss, did you go to rob the household department last night?" Xiao Yu was surprised.
"Say what? It was snatched from someone else. Wei Shuyan hurriedly wrapped the printing plate and put it away.
"Speaking of which, you're going to rob." Xiao Yukou said without hesitation.
This thing was given to the Tiger Master by the group of so-called Shadow Guards, that is to say, this printing plate may be real, and if they get the real printing plate, they can print a more realistic silver ticket, and even want to replace the real silver ticket.
With the economic lifeline of the Great Jin in his hands, I am afraid that someone wants to rebel, and the fake silver ticket appeared in Jiangling, and Jiangling is the fief of King Chen, so his suspicion is even greater.
Whether King Chen has the intention of rebellion, or someone wants to frame him.
No matter what the situation is, she just wants to do her Wei family's business well, and she doesn't want to get involved in court disputes, but she hates that the person behind her wants to use her Wei family's money to open the knife, and wants their family to carry the black pot, so she can't complain that she will investigate it to the end.
The government will definitely not publicize such a major event as the loss of the printing plate, so everyone will know about it, so Wei Shuyan sent someone to investigate.
The news was that the plate was lost, which confirmed that the plate was real.
Wei Shuyan naturally won't return it, even if she wants to return it, it is not now, such an important thing as the printing plate can be lost, which shows that there are people in the government who are guarding and stealing it, but it is safer for her to do so.
At least for now, no one except her and Xiao Yu knew the whereabouts of the plate.
She stayed in Liu's Mansion for a few days, except for that night, Zhang Yan didn't do anything, Wei Shuyan believed that she had nothing to do with the fake silver ticket, Zhang Yan just wanted to borrow a knife to kill people.
So how can people who want to get the property of the Wei family be willing to let the most profitable money bank have an accident.
And Wei Shuyan wanted to use Zhang Yan to find the person behind it, but now it seems that Zhang Yan is only in contact with the little minions in the gang, and he has no value.
Her most cherished son is about to return, and with the last warning, she should be at peace for some time.
Wei Shuyan came to Chen Wangfu, she had to see how Shen Ji's progress was?
"Wei Shuyan, you've been coming to my house quite a lot lately, is it because you want to see someone?" Chen Wang hissed and frowned.
Looking at the ill-intentioned eyes, Wei Shuyan guessed King Chen's thoughts at a glance.
That's fine, if King Chen thinks that he is interesting to Shen Jiong, then it is even more logical to enter and leave King Chen's mansion in the future.
Wei Shuyan asked rhetorically, "Who does the prince think I want to see?" ”
King Chen hissed and said thoughtfully: "It's probably Concubine Shen!" By the way, he's in the backyard, and if you want to see her, you can go at any time. ”
King Chen's expression now is like a matchmaker who comes to the door to propose marriage.
Wei Shuyan: "By the way, Lord Wang, has the girl who disappeared last time been found?" ”
King Chen shook his head, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth disappeared: "I searched the whole city, but I didn't even find a shadow." ”
"Recently, there are rumors in the mansion that Qiu Yue left the mansion by herself and was taken away by non-thieves, but Qiu Yue has been in the mansion for five years, and this king has never treated her badly, so she has no reason to leave. But if it is taken away by gangsters, how can there be no trace at all. ”
King Chen is known as a benevolent person, and treats the people in the house well, and the bold little maid occasionally laughs with King Chen, with such a master, there is really no reason to leave.
"Lord Wang, don't worry, maybe she has found a good home." Wei Shuyan comforted.
In fact, it was she who managed to spread rumors in the palace that it was Qiu Yue who had left the palace.
King Chen sighed: "I hope so!" ”
Wei Shuyan walked a few steps, looked back, and found that King Chen seemed to be still worried about Qiuyue's affairs, and he could treat a subordinate like this, Wei Shuyan could hardly imagine that those murderous killers would be sent by him.
Maybe someone really wants to frame him, maybe his acting skills are too good.
In the back garden, Wei Shuyan didn't find Concubine Shen, but saw Shen Wei meditating alone in the pavilion.
He folded his hands, dressed in plain clothes, his long hair was draped behind his head, and before he got closer, he saw the excessively long eyelashes, the man's eyebrows were warm, and his thin lips were not self-reddening, which was even better than a woman's, which made people feel happy to see it.
If you don't have that black hair, you look like a living Buddha, just such a face, and dedicate it to the Buddha, isn't it a pity?
She finally understood the phrase that heroes are sad about beauty, no matter how majestic and eloquent people are, it is difficult to resist beauty, and it is indeed a pleasure for anyone to look at such a face every day.
Wei Shuyan feels that she is also a beauty, but she still obeys Shen Wei in terms of beauty.
The most rare thing is that the beauty of that person is not as feminine as a woman, nor as masculine as a man, it can be said that the boundary is between the junction of yin and yang, if you have to use one word to describe it, it is "there is nothing in the sky and there is no earth, plus there is no man." ”
"You're finally here?" The thin lips slowly opened, and the low and hearty voice penetrated Wei Shuyan's ears without warning.
Wei Shuyan sat on the stone bench, holding her chin with one hand, staring at the person who had not opened her eyes.
"Master Shen is chanting the scriptures again." Wei Shuyan laughed.
The eyes slowly opened, the hem of the robe was gently lifted, and the legs were lowered one after the other, and when he got up, he was clearly felt shaking.
Wei Shuyan smiled: "What, my legs are numb." ”
Shen Wei seemed a little embarrassed, he ignored Wei Shuyan, but sat down by himself and quietly pressed his leg.
Wei Shuyan saw through Shen Ji's thoughts, but she didn't expose it again, but pulled the topic back to the right path: "In the past few days, there have been gains." ”
Shen Yi: "Yes." ”
Through the observation of the past few days, Shen Ji found that everything in Chen Wang's Mansion seemed so normal, in addition to looking for the missing maid, Chen Wanghe, as usual, played chess and wrote poems with his friends every day, and occasionally went to the field to farm, respecting the princess and pampering the concubine, as people rumored.
Although Shen Wei has been to the palace several times, this is the first time he has lived in the palace for a long time, and he respects King Chen, because he is good to his sister, everyone in the palace and the people of Jiangling.
Therefore, he thinks that such a good person will not do those things.
But during this time, these things that he experienced with Wei Shuyan told him that if he unconditionally imagined everyone so well, he would suffer.
However, he did notice that something was wrong with King Chen.
Chen Wang would work in the study until late at night every night, and several times he would stay outside the study, and he would find a carrier pigeon flying into the study through the skylight, and then flying out again.
Hearing this, Wei Shuyan couldn't wait to ask: "Is there a letter on that pigeon?" ”
Shen Ji: "Yes, it's just..."
Shen Wei took out a note from her arms and unfolded it, Wei Shuyan got up and sat next to Shen Ji, she was dumbfounded when she saw the note.
