Mo Lingwei walked behind her, looking down at her and communicating with the little mouse.

In his eyes, the little mouse just chirped a series of times, but Shen Ningning seemed to really understand, and said in surprise: "Really? Do you see clearly? ”

Something miraculous happened, and the rat nodded.

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows, he was sometimes worried, his wife was too powerful, what should he do?

For example, he can't learn to communicate with animals.

But when I think about it, I feel proud, other people's wives may be gentle and considerate, maybe good at laundry and cooking, and his little wife can talk to animals!

Oh, not his wife yet.

Mo Lingwei thought of this stubble, and his face turned black again.

Shen Ningning learned the truth and took out a piece of caramel from his sleeve: "Thank you for coming and telling me, this is a reward for you." ”

The little mouse was holding a big sugar cube in its two paws, and it chirped, in words that only Shen Ningning could understand-

"No thanks, you can call me a chivalrous mouse, we hate people, and generally speaking, we won't help you, but our rat king said that you are a generous woman and a good person, so let me inform you, the food in Mafu is ours, and the cabinet is also broken by us, that's because you said you want to teach him a lesson, but the loss of gold and other things has absolutely nothing to do with us, it's man-made!"

What was going on, it had already told Shen Ningning just now.

At this moment, Shen Ningning couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, and a smile appeared on his bright face.

"I know, you go back, leave this matter to me, and it will definitely find out."

The little mouse nodded, hugged the candy cube, and ran back to the hole in the corner.

Shen Ningning stood up and looked back to see Mo Lingwei looking at her.

"What did the rat tell you?" He asked in a low voice, curious.

Shen Ningning blinked his long eyelashes: "It said that when they went to Master Ma's house last night, they saw the person who really stole the Golden Buddha." ”

After speaking, Shen Ningning's eyes looked at Master Ma who was gray over there.

The girl walked over and asked meaningfully, "Master Ma, do you still think that the shopkeeper stole your golden Buddha?" ”

Master Ma was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

"I don't doubt it, I don't doubt it," he waved his hand again and again: "Maybe I forgot where I put it, and I'll send someone to find it." ”

Shen Ningning listened to his tone and concluded that he must still think that it was Shopkeeper Wen who stole it, or that Shopkeeper Wen asked Shen Ningning to arrange someone to go to his house to break into an empty door in order to retaliate against him.

So, Shen Ningning pursed her pink lips: "I know where your Golden Buddha is, just now there is an enthusiastic chivalrous man who has already told me." ”

"Where's the Golden Buddha?" Master Ma asked anxiously.

The people around each muttered to each other—

"I'll just say, the princess was definitely talking to the earth just now."

"Or an invisible immortal, otherwise, how would she know where the gold is!"

Shen Ningning said indifferently: "It is said that it is difficult to prevent thieves day and night, you go to the box under your son's bed to find it, there should be not only the golden Buddha, but also the jade you lost before, maybe, there will be more unexpected discoveries." ”

Master Ma was stunned, he had a few pieces of fine jade that he had played with for many years, the whole body was purple and green, known as spring with color, without impurities, it was his wife's dowry, because he liked it, he had been holding it himself, and many beautiful concubines asked him for it, but he was not willing to give it out.

But just half a month ago, this piece of jade was lost, and Master Ma searched the entire house but didn't find it, and he didn't dare to make a noise, for fear of being discovered by his wife.

How did Princess Funing know?

In order to verify the authenticity, Master Ma immediately wanted to return home, and Mo Lingwei sent two guards to follow him, so that he would not admit it.

In the process of waiting, the garrison officer asked Mo Lingwei to sit in the official position of the county government to try the case, and rested for a while, Mo Lingwei did not sit down, but pressed Shen Ningning to the chair.

"You sit and rest."

"What about you?"

"I'm not tired." Mo Lingwei's thin lips pursed slightly, and he glanced at her.

Shen Ningning saw that there was a faint dark green under his eyes, presumably because he had been in a hurry day and night and had not slept well.

She muttered twice: "What are you doing here, I left you a letter, and I will go back when the matter is done." ”

Mo Lingwei narrowed his thin eyes: "You guy with no conscience, I chased you for thousands of miles, what else can I do for?" Of course, for your safety, I'm not at ease when you're out alone. ”

Shen Ningning's heart was warm, she blinked her eyes and asked, "Then the emperor's uncle wants you to come out?" ”

"He didn't know when I left, but I left him a letter to learn from you."

When the girl heard this, she could imagine that the emperor was so angry that she jumped to her feet when she found out about the letter.

She sighed helplessly: "Or, after the matter here is dealt with, you will go back?" ”

"Want to get rid of me? No way. Mo Lingwei refused very decisively, he snorted coldly: "Without me, even if you can settle today's matter, there will be a little trouble, so I'm still quite useful, take me, at least it won't cause you trouble, and it can also give you an extra guard." ”

Shen Ningning's smile trembled.

The garrison officer carefully let people serve tea, bowed down to serve the prince and princess, and even the shopkeeper Wen and his family got a bench to sit on.

After a while, two of the prince's guards grabbed a young man with a blue nose and a swollen face, and they were followed by an angry and corrupt Ma.

"Why do I have such a bastard son as you, you stole to pay off gambling debts, bastard, I won't kill you today!"

He raised the stick in his hand, and the young man screamed in fright, and the prince's guard immediately raised his hand to stop him, and said coldly: "Don't fight, if you beat someone again, you will die, how can you arrest and bring it to justice." ”

The garrison officer immediately asked Master Ma to explain the whole story.

It turned out that the Golden Buddha was the son of Master Ma at all, and he took it when everyone was not at home last night, so he returned home alone and stole it.

Because he was addicted to gambling, he owed a huge debt of 5,000 taels of silver outside.

But he didn't dare to tell his family, for fear that he would break his leg by Master Ma.

When he stole the Golden Buddha last night, he was seen clearly by the little mice, and he even knew where to hide.

Ma Gongzi knelt in the public court and begged Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei to raise their noble hands, but Shen Ningning said sternly: "You steal property, even if you are a family with Master Ma, you have also violated the law, according to the value of the golden Buddha and jade, you should be fined fifty rods and imprisoned for three months to set an example!" ”

Now, Master Ma no longer has any quibbles to quibble.

The truth of the matter was completely revealed, and the people shouted and cheered.

Shopkeeper Wen's tears of excitement rippled.

At night, in order to thank Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei for their kindness, Shopkeeper Wen set up a sumptuous banquet at home to thank them.
