Chapter 6: Rouge Acacia

Sun Shining didn't expect Shen Nianyi to really throw her back into the government prison, she was still on death row, or that room, or the jailer who tossed her a lot, and she was suddenly discouraged, and everything she wanted to say was blocked in her throat.

As soon as Shen Nianyi walked behind, Qiu Cheng sent her to the prison door, seeing that she had been silent, he turned his head sideways and thought about it, and said more: "What my lord means, since the facts of the case have not yet been revealed, it is more appropriate for the convicted criminal to return here." ”

When Sun Shining sat in, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "When do you think I can take a bath?" ”

Qiu Cheng laughed, his smile was very gentle: "Since the adults have taken over, they will definitely do their best, you don't have to worry, he is now in this position step by step, and he is by no means an idle person." ”

Shen Nianyi will stand next to him, his face turned sideways, holding his breath and concentrating on what he is thinking about, the shadows from the lights on the wall flickering and dimming, reflecting his whole person as if he was a piece of fine and beautiful jade, exuding a cold atmosphere.

Sun Shining cautiously looked at him again, don't turn her head, because she didn't want to stay in the prison even more after walking out, those fears that forced her not to think about it were almost irrepressible, and vines with teeth and claws spread out from the mire at the bottom of her heart, strangling the tip of her heart, and the tip of her heart was painful, she quickly covered it with her hands and slowly bent down.

Shen Nianyi's lips moved lightly twice, and his eyes were clear and translucent: "Did you cry as soon as we left?" ”

Sun Shining was willing to admit it to his face, and quickly shook his head: "Lord Shen has been joking for me many years ago, and I am already very grateful." ”

"In that case." Shen Nian took a step forward, "Wouldn't it be better to let you be a little more grateful, more like words." ”

Sun Shining saw Shen Nianyi raise her sleeves, a very light wind blew, Shen Nianyi took her out of the cell, and swaggered away, she thought she was thinking too much in a trance, until he methodically took her to the inn, booked a room with a heavenly name, two large buckets of hot water were sent in, and the smiling proprietress was brought in.

"Girl, this is what Fang Cai's son asked me to buy, looking at the girl at this time, she is really slender, and the clothes may be bought big."

Sun Shining rubbed his eyes, but still didn't wake up: "I'm not dreaming?" ”

The proprietress smiled and said: "It's not a dream, the boy said that the girl had an unfortunate life and suffered a little, let me accompany you to talk, if it's inconvenient, do you want me to help you wash?" ”

Sun Shining suddenly sobered up: "No, no, I'll wash it myself." ”

"That's good, clean clothes are placed on the bamboo chair, the boy lives next door to you, and I have instructed you, wait for the girl to take a bath, and then go over there, I have something to say." The proprietress was not surprised to see how much, and closed the door for her lightly, "Girl, I'm just waiting outside the door, I can call someone if I have something." ”

Sun Shining couldn't resist the temptation of clean hot water anymore, so he answered vaguely, took off his coat three times and divided two by two, plunged into the wooden barrel headlessly, rubbed it from head to toe three times with soaphorns, and then got up and rinsed it with another bucket of hot water.

She had never felt so clean, so scented, with her wet hair draped over and her shoes knocking on the door.

"Come in." Shen Nianyi's voice was still clear and quiet through a door.

Sun Shining entered the door and gave him a cautious salute, Shen Nianyi did not stop him, he accepted it very naturally, raised his eyes, looked at her without speaking, her figure was falling in his pupils, like rippling on the surface of the water, she was slightly flustered, only to find that there was only her and him in the room, and Qiu Cheng was not there.

"Didn't you say you wanted to take a shower?" Shen Nianyi picked up the teapot on the table, brewed two cups of tea, and put one cup on the opposite side, "Sit down and talk, don't be so restrained, this is not the government office, let alone the Sun family." ”

"I definitely don't mean to slander adults, and the matter of quitting my relatives ......"

Shen Nianyi's gesture simply stopped her stammering words: "I said it, your case is the key, the matter of quitting relatives, when this is over, we will slowly settle the account." ”

The two words of accounting were said very slowly and slightly playfully, but Sun Shining suddenly became nervous, she didn't understand what the reason was, she originally felt that the gap in debt was taken by his words, and immediately found a direction that could be returned, she believed that he must have thought of a way to take revenge on her, and then she must let him beat and scold, so that he can relieve his anger.

"Qiu Cheng went back to the mansion to explain to Lord Min, you are the key person in this case, and I must take you with me to facilitate the investigation of the case." Shen Nianyi walked to the window and pushed it away a little, "Aren't you very strange, since you are in Tiandu, why did I take you to the inn to settle down?" ”

"I'm a murderer, it's easier for adults to bring me to the inn than to bring them back to Dali Temple." Sun Shining pursed the corners of her mouth, of course, she couldn't bring it back to the Shen family's compound, her identity was simply not right, and she was in the hall and entered the room.

"A little smarter than I thought." Shen Nianyi was still looking at the sky outside, "Since you are also clever, how can you be easily put in a position, and you will almost end up being beheaded." ”

Sun Shining smiled bitterly, this question, she didn't ask herself a hundred or ten times in the prison, knowing that Xue Rujing looked at her into the flesh and thorns in the eyes, and her appearance was to move the real title of her second lady, which had been suppressed for many years, to the table again, she was careless.

Because of her father's sudden death, she had no time to deal with anything else, she thought that at least when her father's bones were not cold, Xue Rujing would not act so quickly, at least not so ruthlessly.

It turned out that she had always been too naΓ―ve and thought too simple about the sinister nature of people's hearts.

"It's not about others, it's my own stupidity." Sun Shining generously admitted that if Xue Rujing asked Holly to help in the big house that night, she would be vigilant, and probably would not have come to the most dangerous step.

I once thought that if my father was not there, I would be swept out of the house and driven out of the Sun family, but I didn't expect that what the other party wanted was to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and what she wanted was for her to fall into Huangquan, and it would be a hundred.

"Sounds like your father's death was sudden, was it an accident?"

"It's not an accident, according to him, it was because of an old disease, and it started all of a sudden, and the medicine stone was ineffective, but he passed away in a few days." Sun Shining watched her father explain the aftermath with her own eyes, but the Sun family has a big business, where can a few words be explained, her only thought at that time was that after her mother died, her father also died, in this world, she was really the only one left, she was a veritable orphan, so that her father's last two sentences should be very important, I can't think of it.

"I was surprised." Shen Nianyi retracted his gaze, and Sun Shining saw that a huge bright orange firework bloomed in the corner of the sky outside that was originally dark blue, but in the blink of an eye, the fireworks landed, and nothing could be seen, "As soon as the head of a large family dies, there are many people in the family who compete for fame and fortune, but there are not many people who put people to death like this." ”

Obviously, you can use a simpler way to give a stepdaughter who has just come to the house a little money, send it out of the Sun family, send it far away, and even give her a family affair, and the daughter who marries out of the water spilled out, there are few worries, there is no great hatred, why is this, Shen Nian couldn't help but look at Sun Shining again, she really didn't know the reason, or did she hide some secrets and refused to tell them.

"I don't understand either." Sun Shining hung his head and pinched a small object in his palm, "However, above the mourning hall, I picked this up." ”

Shen Nianyi looked at her palm, her hand was not big, and after taking a bath, the palm showed a faint pink color, just like a girl of this age, and it contained a box of rouge, he twisted it with his fingertips and turned the rouge box over, this is not ordinary rouge, but a special color for women in the palace.

Although he didn't often walk in the palace, he occasionally saw a few pieces, the rouge box was opened, he picked up a little with his tail finger, approached and sniffed, and the fragrance of flowers mixed with a vague fragrance diffused and spread.

It turned out that she was crying so grandiosely in the mourning hall in order to fish in troubled waters and hide this thing, but her hands and feet were very fast, and even with his sharp eyes, he didn't even notice her small movements, Shen Nianyi was a little impressed.

"My lord, this is the floral fragrance of acacia flowers." Sun Shining didn't show off, she said very seriously, "My father once let me smell this aroma of rouge, it's very special." ”

It was two months ago, Sun Changfu saw her in the study, in front of him was a box of newly made rouge, he looked very happy, he had to smell her, she had never been in contact with rouge gouache before, where did she know, but obediently smelled the fragrance, and stained some twisted in the fingertips, the fragrance was more tranquil and reverie.

Sun Changfu waited patiently for her to finish a series of actions before asking, "What do you think of this box of rouge smelling?" ”

Sun Shining was stunned, and she wanted to say that this was the first rouge she touched in her life, but Sun Changfu looked clear: "I know you didn't understand this before, I just ask you, what did you think of at this moment?" ”

Sun Shining didn't speak, but a layer of pink slowly rose on his cheeks: "I just think it smells good." ”

"What else?" Sun Changfu asked.

"Also, it seems that it is dangerous, and I want to throw it far away, but I am a little reluctant." Sun Shining replied honestly.

Sun Changfu became more and more happy, and said three good words in a row before letting her go back to the house.

Sun Shining walked all the way fast, and when she arrived in her house, her heartbeat was even more intense, and her breath became chaotic, she still couldn't describe the fragrance of acacia flowers, but she remembered it firmly.

"Where did you see it in the mourning hall?" The rouge case is about the size of the thumb and index finger, and it is not easy to spot if it falls in the corner.

Sun Shining smiled slowly: "I didn't see it, but I entered the Spirit Hall, and I smelled its aroma." ”
