When Shi Qingxue returned to Luotong Pavilion, there was still some abnormal blush on her face, and her clothes were a little messy, but if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't find any clues.
The culprit? Mo Junyang was following behind, well-dressed, with a cold and distant expression, but his extremely bright eyes reflected his contented mood.
It's a pity that the person who really dared to look at Mo Shizi and even studied his eyes carefully was being pulled by Xia Mang to report on the situation in Luotong Pavilion.
Xia Mang gave Shi Qingxue a note with the signature "Phantom Thief Ling Yang" on it.
It was as if he was afraid that others would not know that Ling Yang was responsible for this theft again.
"Tsk. Painting tigers is not anti-dog. Only those people can do such stupid things." Shi Qingxue glanced at the note and said with disgust.
Xia Mang stared in confusion, not understanding what Shi Qingxue was going to say. He also said that Qingxue did not realize the seriousness of the problem, and emphasized again: "Liu Niang, this strange thief Ling Yang came to our house not long ago, and now he comes again. It’s clear that he has set his sights on Duke Shi’s mansion. No matter what his purpose is, we can’t let it go easily. We must..."
"Okay, okay!" Shi Qingxue interrupted Xia Mang's ramblings, dumbfounded.
The 'theft' at the Duke's Mansion last time was done by Shi Junhe, and it had nothing to do with Luotong Pavilion, so she didn't mention it to Xia Mang specifically.
Unexpectedly, someone now wants to use the name "Phantom Thief Ling Yang" to hide the truth, and they really fooled the always smart Xia Mang.
"Liu Niang!" Xia Mang was still a little annoyed, and was very dissatisfied that Shi Qingxue didn't care about her own 'safety'.
Just as she was about to speak, Qingxue raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Do you think he would dare to come if I was at home?"
Xia Mang paused, "Are you saying that Phantom Thief Ling Yang only steals things and doesn't hurt anyone, so it doesn't matter?"
This girl is convinced that Kaitou Ling Yang is dead.
Shi Qingxue had no choice but to pull the person aside and tell her: "Don't worry, the person who sneaked into Luotong Pavilion this time is not the strange thief Ling Yang, so you don't need to be so worried."
"No?" Xia Mang opened his mouth in surprise, and it took him a while to calm down.
Then he asked nervously: "Who is that? Is it someone from the mansion?"
As soon as she finished asking, she nervously covered her mouth again, fearing that someone might overhear her.
Shi Qingxue nodded approvingly.
Xia Mango certainly didn't disappoint her. She understood everything right away and guessed that it was the mole.
"Don't be so nervous. Didn't you say that this thief didn't steal anything? So don't worry..." There's no way he can succeed!
Shi Qingxue spoke confidently and winked at Xia Mang proudly.
Obviously, others are not as relaxed as she is.
Shi Junhe walked up to her with a serious face and asked in a deep voice: "Qingxue, are you sure you haven't lost anything?"
The word 'thing' was deliberately emphasized, coupled with Shi Junhe's cold expression.
Qingxue knew that her father had guessed what the thief wanted this time.
So even though Shi Junhe was anxious and worried now, he didn't dare to ask directly, because he was afraid that the person who broke into Luotong Pavilion had not gone far and was still monitoring every move here.
If he asked Shi Qingxue to check 'such things' at this time, it would be more convenient for the thief.
Just when Shi Qingxue wanted to comfort Shi Junhe, Shi Jie hurried over again and said to the two of them: "Master, the eldest princess and the second lady are here."
Although the Shi family has been separated, Shi Jie still carefully calls Mo Shujun and Zhang Qiuyan according to their previous titles.
Shi Junhe was also thinking about these details now, and he frowned heavily when he heard this, "Where are the people?"
"The eldest princess went straight to her family's ancestral hall as soon as she arrived. She asked you to go there right away."
Shi Junhe's forehead almost wrinkled into the word "Chuan", thinking: Ever since Mo Shujun moved out, he has not returned to the Duke of Shi's Mansion, as if he wanted to draw a clear line with the people in the big house.
This time he came to the door and went straight to the ancestral hall. Could it be that he wanted to get Shi Lei's bones back
Shi Junhe suppressed the irritation in his heart and told Shi Qingxue: "You and Mo Shizi stay in Dongyuan to thoroughly investigate the thief at home. The 'thing' is so important and must not be stolen."
After that, without giving Shi Qingxue a chance to object, she took Shi Jie and rushed to the ancestral hall.
In the ancestral hall, Mo Shujun was standing in front of Shi Lei's tablet. She stood there for a long time, just like countless days in the past, quietly looking at Shi Lei's tablet.
Seeing such a similar scene, Shi Junhe's cold heart suddenly softened, and his voice couldn't help but become a little softer.
"The son has met his mother."
Shi Junhe and Mo Shujun once had such a quarrel that they almost severed the relationship between mother and son, and even had to die without contact.
But the friendship over so many years does exist. Isn’t it the old saying that even if the mother is unkind, the son cannot be unfilial
Shi Junhe originally had admiration for Mo Shujun, and he grew up in such a culture. Even if Mo Shujun did something too extreme to him, even if he was really angry at the time.
Afterwards, I will still be soft-hearted towards Mo Shujun.
Mo Shujun turned her head when she heard Shi Junhe's greetings, her face cold and gloomy, "Kneel down for me."
Shi Junhe was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused as to why Mo Shujun came so suddenly.
Zhang Qiuyan, who was on the side, seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and rushed forward again. This time she really cursed Shi Junhe: "You damn bastard, you poisoned Junfeng, I'm going to kill him." You take revenge on Junfeng!"
Due to their status, Shi Junhe couldn't touch Zhang Qiuyan, and he was actually hit by her at first.
Even though Zhang Qiuyan was a 'weak woman', her slap hit Shi Junhe's exposed neck with great force, causing a bloody streak.
Shi Junhe hissed in pain, and then he recovered from Zhang Qiuyan's reprimand, with both pain and surprise on his face.
Dong Hui was still smart and quick. As soon as she saw Zhang Qiuyan's presumption, she immediately stepped forward and pushed her away. She placed her hands on her hips and scolded her coldly: "Ms. Zhang, this is the ancestral hall of the Duke of Shi. If you dare to be presumptuous again, be careful and I will call you People will beat you out with sticks!"
Since the Shi family was divided, Dong Hui became the veritable mistress of the Duke of Shi's mansion.
Her waist was also straightened, and even Mo Shujun was not afraid, let alone a powerless younger sibling.
Zhang Qiuyan was glared at by Dong Hui, her neck shrank, and her arrogance disappeared.
But when she thought that her husband was dead, Zhang Qiuyan became angry again.
She is such a reliable person!
Once Shi Junfeng died, her life would be ruined.
How could she swallow this breath
The coldness in Zhang Qiuyan's eyes swept away, and when she looked up again, she had changed into a pitiful look, and she begged Mo Shujun: "Mom! Junfeng is also your biological son! The murderer is right in front of you now, Do you want to watch your son die unjustly?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Our master has never..." Dong Hui refuted Zhang Qiuyan's words anxiously.
But before she finished speaking, she was rudely interrupted by Mo Shujun: "Ms. Dong, did I let you speak?"
Dong Hui choked, but had nothing to say.
Although she is no longer afraid of Mo Shujun, their identities are still there.
After all, Mo Shujun was her mother in name only, and she didn't need a reason to train others.
Dong Hui shut up in anger, but made many moves in private - she pulled Shi Junhe's sleeves several times, indicating that this was not the time to be in a daze and sad, and if this continued, those people would really throw shit at their heads. Deducted.
"Shi Junhe, I am still your mother. I told you to kneel down. Didn't you hear me?" Mo Shujun stared at Shi Junhe coldly and ordered word by word.
Shi Junhe had come to his senses, but he ignored Dong Hui's hint. He just looked at Mo Shujun with unusual complexity and asked in a hoarse voice: "I wonder what mistake my son has made that requires him to kneel down in front of his father's memorial tablet?"
"You killed Junfeng and got both the man and the stolen goods. You still want to make excuses?" Zhang Qiuyan couldn't hold it anymore and shouted again.
Before she could make a fuss, Mo Shujun glanced at her coldly and told her to shut up.
Then he turned to the servant and said, "Bring this person up."
After a while, Zheng Liang, who was supposed to interrogate the suspect at Shi Junfeng's house, lowered his head and walked in with small steps.
When Zheng Liang entered the room, he greeted Mo Shujun first, bowed his head and shrank his neck, as if he was guilty of being a thief and wanted to shrink himself into a mushroom.
Shi Junhe was not blind. He stared at Zheng Liangcai and asked, "Isn't Master Zheng interrogating Shi Wang at his second brother's house? Why are you here?"
Zheng Liangcai quickly raised his head and glanced at Shi Junhe, then quickly lowered his head and responded hesitantly: "My official, my official has already asked the real culprit who killed Second Master Shi. The real culprit is..."
He said it several times without calling out the real murderer's name.
Mo Shujun didn't have the patience, so she directly took Zheng Liangcai's words and said: "The real culprit is you!"
She pointed at Shi Junhe, and her cold voice finally couldn't help but reveal deep hatred, "Shi Junhe, although I am not your biological mother, I have never treated you badly. I didn't expect you to be so vicious and murder someone." My dear Feng'er, you really deserve to be cut to pieces with a thousand swords!"
Shi Junhe was stung by Mo Shujun's hatred and took a step back suddenly, a sour breath filling his nose.
He was really hurt by Mo Shujun - when he heard what Mo Shujun did to You Si's ashes, he was just disappointed and angry - he didn't expect that the love between mother and son for so many years would end up being cut to pieces. .
Ah!
Shi Junhe curled his lips mockingly, but found that he couldn't laugh.
He had no choice but to give up the expression on his face and raised his eyes to look at Mo Shujun, "I never poisoned Junfeng to death. What evidence do you have?"
"I think you won't shed tears until you see the coffin! Well, I will let you die with your heart convinced today!" Mo Shujun smiled coldly.
She turned to Zheng Liangcai and ordered: "What are you doing standing here stupidly? Go down and bring him all the witnesses and physical evidence!"
"Yes, yes!" Zheng Liangcai responded submissively and stumbled out.
Mo Shujun sneered: "Wait a minute, let me see if you have anything else to say!"
