Helian Kuang came to her, and the meaning was obviously obvious. The two of them didn't say anything secretly. As soon as Du Suxi sat down, she spoke.
"I thought about it yesterday and got some new clues."
He Lianheng came to her yesterday, but she didn't reveal the clues she found. It was not because she was on guard against He Lianheng, but because she didn't want to implicate He Lianheng. She had already learned about what happened in the palace that day from Helian Kuang's mouth, so she knew it. If he let He Lianheng intervene, he would harm He Lianheng. In this case, it would be better not to say anything.
She took out the list that He Lianheng gave her from her sleeve and handed it to Helian Kuang. Du Suxi's expression became serious and she spoke solemnly.
"Here is a list of eligible ladies from the capital compiled by a good friend of mine. I hope you can help me investigate these people in detail."
It's not like Du Suxi has never thought of using her secret guards to investigate this matter, but it is too difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive. If someone discovers it, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble. In this way, It's better to let Helian Kuang investigate.
He Liankuang stretched out his hand to take it, glanced at the list and then raised his head, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes. Yin Yang said angrily.
"It seems that Miss Du's friend has a very complicated background."
His words had some meaning, but Du Suxi ignored them and spoke.
"Yesterday, I took a closer look at the body of Mr. Wang Ergou and found that Wang Ergou was stabbed in the heart with a sword. There may have been a struggle before death. This can be seen from the dust in the nails of his right hand. , Generally speaking, this kind of Gongsun Gongzi must love to be clean, and he will never let himself get dirty. Therefore, I can conclude that this was caused by Wang Ergou’s struggle before his death. Although the wound was ulcerated, it was still vaguely visible. It can be concluded that the diameter of the sword is extremely thin, it should be a female sword, and it is extremely sharp. Generally, swords like this will have a certain reputation, and if we continue to trace it, we will definitely be able to find some clues."
When she analyzed, she looked very serious. I don't know who once said that serious women are the most beautiful, and Du Suxi was blooming with her own amazing beauty at this moment.
Helian Kuang heard this, thought about it, and then raised his doubts. "Du Suxi, ordinary women usually use swords as weapons of choice. If you only have this clue, I'm afraid it will be difficult to investigate clearly."
I originally thought that Du Suxi would be embarrassed, panicked, and at a loss. Unexpectedly, Du Suxi smiled, looked at Helian Kuang, and spoke solemnly.
"There was one plan among the thirty-six strategies, which was called building a plank road openly and secretly attacking Chencang. I wonder if Your Highness has ever heard of it?"
"?" Looking at the woman's confident smile, Helian Kuang knew in his heart that this cunning woman might have already thought of a way.
Sure enough, within a moment, Du Suxi spoke. "Your Highness can now spread the news that clues have been found. A mutilated trinket was found at the place where the crime occurred. It seems to be something on a woman's sword. Therefore, the whole city's sword people to conduct an investigation, starting with these dozens of people.”
As soon as Du Suxi finished speaking, someone immediately stopped her.
"Absurd! You woman, you are too ignorant. Do you know how much manpower and material resources will be used if we really want to hunt down the whole city? How many people will be put in dire straits. You, this woman, are too vicious and make people hate."
The man's Chinese-character face, his expression serious and dignified, looked at Du Su
Xi's eyes were even more disdainful.
Du Suxi did not refute, but looked at Helian Kuang, silently asking, who is this man
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Helian Kuang's face, and he opened his mouth to explain. "He is the first national scholar in the dynasty, Gao Zhichang, and he is also my right-hand man."
I see.
Looking at the national scholar who looked proud and disdainful of himself, Du Suxi smiled, but she had a very bad impression of him in her heart. However, he still opened his red lips lightly without any trace, and said something.
"I thought that Mr. Gao could understand the little girl's intention, but I never thought that it was the little girl who thought too much. In this case, it is the little girl's fault."
Listening to Du Suxi's sinister tone, Gao Zhichang snorted coldly and said directly. "Women always have long hair but short knowledge. I can understand your mood, but everything..."
Before he finished speaking, Du Suxi suddenly pulled out the sword from Helian Kuang's waist, and pointed the cold tip of the sword directly at Gao Zhichang. Gao Zhichang panicked at first, and then returned to his serious expression. He looked sideways at Du Suxi and said disdainfully.
"You woman, you are so ungrateful. I kindly gave you some advice, but instead of saying thank you, you actually drew your sword at me. You are really stupid! Extremely stupid!"
No matter what, this Gao Zhichang can always stand on the highest point of morality and accuse Du Suxi. In his eyes, Du Suxi is probably stubborn and pedantic. Fortunately, Du Suxi has Such people also have no favorable impressions.
Taking back the sword in his hand expressionlessly, Du Suxi smiled coldly. He spoke. "Master Gao's words are serious. The little girl is just helping Master Gao imagine how frightened he would be if he was the one who committed the crime and knew that his handle was in someone's hands. Thank you, Master Gao, What a wonderful demonstration you just made for Your Highness and me.”
"You!" Gao Zhichang looked angry. He never expected that he would be teased by a little girl so easily. He snorted coldly, his face was red with shame, and he looked at Du Suxi with an especially unkind look. He cursed hatefully.
"The ancients said that only villains and women are difficult to raise. The ancients do not deceive me! You, a woman, are not only ignorant, but also simple and rude!"
Du Suxi looked up at him, her expression unchanged and a smile on her lips. "Thank you for the compliment, Sir."
There was no trace of emotion or embarrassment, this was Du Suxi. On the other hand, Gao Zhichang, looking at the elegant Du Suxi, almost overturned the table in anger.
Taking in Kochi Chang's appearance, he secretly thought in his heart that it seemed that their hatred was bound to be irresolvable. With a sigh, Du Suxi didn't feel much regret. She didn't even look at him. She turned to look at Helian Kuang and said.
"Your Highness should understand now what the little girl wants?"
He Liankuang raised his head and looked at the cunning look in Du Suxi's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he understood the meaning of Du Suxi's words. This Du Suxi is really a ghost, so unexpected.
The two of them didn't even realize that something called a tacit understanding was taking root and sprouting between them, and it was slowly emerging.
There was a "pop" sound, as if the sound of someone smashing porcelain came from there, and it was actually transmitted here. Du Suxi was slightly startled, and then she understood. This side hall is not far from the main hall, or even just... It's separated by a wall. And sitting in the main hall was her nominal eldest sister, Du Yunxi.
without
Did you think that you couldn't sit still so quickly? It was really useless. Du Suxi cursed a little in her heart, gathered her emotions, looked at Gao Zhichang who was still looking at her fiercely, and curled her lips indifferently, but he was like a flower. He walked towards Kochi Chang as usual and said in a coquettish voice.
"My lord, you can choose to leave now, or you can stay here and continue to watch me, a street shrew, act miserably."
Her calm and leisurely attitude made Kochi Chang slightly stunned. He looked at her in disbelief, but he saw that her face was full of humility and there was no trace of arrogance at all. She was so strong-willed that he was slightly stunned and a little stunned. .
In fact, this woman was not without merit, he couldn't help but think to himself.
If what he did just now was not directed at him, I am afraid that he might be impressed by this woman's intelligence and calmness. As a national scholar, which means the smartest person in the country, he is now being humiliated by a little woman. Naturally, he is a little bit dissatisfied. There is a sense of contempt between scholars.
He snorted coldly. Although he was curious about Du Suxi's next move, the proud nature he had cultivated for a long time made it impossible for him to lose face. With a cold snort, Gao Zhichang finally rolled up his sleeves and left with a gloomy look on his face. .
Hearing the sound of the tables and chairs in the main hall collapsing and the porcelain breaking, Helian frowned and looked at Du Suxi who was sitting there drinking tea and reminded him.
"This is Moshang Xiangfang. All the things she smashed were yours. You just let her smash them? Didn't you stop her at all?"
Du Suxi raised her head to look at him, but she became interested and asked with raised lips. "Why do you want to stop it? They are all cheap goods anyway. You won't be able to see them after they are smashed. You can just ask the Du family for money to buy new ones. I think, as the eldest daughter of the Du family, Du Yunxi, she His private money must be much more."
Her determined expression made He Liankuang slightly stunned, and then a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Du Suxi lovingly, feeling that there was absolutely nothing he could do about this woman.
This woman is the best at pretending to be innocent, but ruthlessly stabs her opponent. She was extremely sinister, but her appearance made him fall in love with her to the extreme.
The two of them just sat there with big eyes facing each other, drinking tea with complete peace of mind. Listening to the sound of breaking porcelain that sounded in their ears from time to time, they actually showed a leisurely and contented look.
Zhong Lingxi knocked on the door and came in. Seeing the two people looking extremely leisurely, she couldn't help but laugh and cry, and said.
"Sir, Du Yunxi has almost smashed everything in the main hall. He also threatened that if the girl is not seen today, he will send someone to demolish the Moshang Incense Shop."
"Oh?" Du Suxi raised her eyebrows in surprise, "The people of the Du family are indeed different. They are really bold. It's really eye-opening." She looked as surprised as a country girl. Looking at Zhong Lingxi's performance when entering the city, he paused for a moment, and even more dumbfounded, he shouted "Young Master."
Du Suxi then stood up, stretched her muscles, looked at Helian and said Kuang. "His Majesty Seventh, just sit here and watch the show with peace of mind. The little girl will definitely not be bullied."
"..." These words made Helian Kuang speechless for a while.
This Du Suxi, it would be good if she didn't go out to bully others, but now she said that she promised that she would not be bullied, which is really a big joke.
Helian shook his head wildly, but he was not worried about Du Suxi's safety at all.
