Chapter 479: Intrigue and Intriguery
In the blink of an eye, the previous events turned a page, Zhuang Mingyue thought that these things would pass, but she never thought that she was too underestimated.
"Princess, it's time for dinner." The little maid came in and asked Zhuang Mingyue to eat.
Zhuang Mingyue was thinking about yesterday's incident, and the little maid called her several times before she came back to her senses. No, you have to eat after eating, staying in the palace like this is almost boring to death. She can't stay at home like this all the time, she has to go out for a walk.
"Princess, are you still going to the West Street shop today?" The little maid asked, if she went, she would have prepared something.
"Of course I went, but you don't have to go today, I want to go by myself." Zhuang Mingyue is not used to having others follow her wherever she goes, which feels very strange, and every day there is this little maid to follow, and the little maid is also tired. Zhuang Mingyue noticed that the little maid slept a little late yesterday, so she temporarily decided to let her rest today.
The shops on West Street are still as lively as before, and there are a lot of people coming and going. Zhuang Mingyue stood in the distance and looked at the shops on West Street, squinting and smiling, as if she saw banknotes coming in and out. Just when Zhuang Mingyue raised her foot and was about to walk over there, she was slapped on the back.
Turning his head, there were two thugs dressed in a flowing manner, and one of the taller ones had a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Zhuang Mingyue felt that the jade pendant was very familiar, and just wanted to ask him where it came from. I heard another thug say maliciously: "Where did the little girl come from, so delicate, playing with her brothers?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull Zhuang Mingyue.
Zhuang Mingyue was just about to break his claws, but just like that, the taller man grabbed his hand and said, "We are civilized people, how can we force others like this?" Haven't you asked people if they want to? β
He closed the fan and thought he was very suave. He said: "This young lady, it's better to be a son, I will definitely let you ...... in the future" Before he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his hand.
He hurriedly looked down, and a hand was on his wrist. The owner of the hand had great strength, and it was as if he wanted to crush his bones, and he did not break free for a long time.
"This brother, can you, let go, let go of your hand, I ......" The taller thug couldn't even speak clearly, and intermittently asked Long Yuanxiu to let him go.
"What were you doing?" He asked, his voice so cold that he couldn't hear a hint of warmth.
Although the sun was shining at the moment, the two little gangsters still shuddered, "This, this, this girl is ......"
Seeing that his companion was speechless in pain, the other hurriedly explained: "Please also ask this son to raise his noble hand, it was this girl who provoked my brother." "This little gangster also thought that Long Yuanxiu was a chivalrous man who saw unevenness and drew his sword to help, so he hurriedly covered for his companions." It's really none of his business, we're not ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he received two solid slaps in the face. The little gangster was stunned by Long Yuanxiu's two slaps, he felt that his explanation was particularly reasonable, why did this chivalrous man beat him?
"Since you have a deep brotherly relationship, then you will be beaten by him." Long Yuanxiu swung his fist as he spoke, wanting to hit this little gangster.
The two gangsters were a little confused, they couldn't figure out the situation and hurriedly asked, "Why doesn't this brother believe what I say?" You...... You, why do you hit people for no reason? "Gangsters
I want to continue to bite back.
Long Yuanxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhuang Mingyue, "You provoked them first?" β
Zhuang Mingyue didn't bother to pay attention to him, so she rolled her eyes directly and ignored him.
The two thugs saw that there was hope, and immediately nodded like pounded garlic. So they hugged the wall closely, and there were two symmetrical footprints on the left and right sides of their clothes.
"Do you think you're more handsome than me, or richer than me? Why would my lady take a fancy to you? "Long Yuanxiu thinks it's funny, his martial arts are so weak, his courage is so small, and his lies are so flawed, and he dares to come out and be a gangster?
"Lady, let's go." Long Yuanxiu said as he pulled up Zhuang Mingyue and walked to the west shop.
"No! You can't go! The thugs came down from the wall and stopped them without fear of death.
"Oh, do you want to keep fighting?" Long Yuanxiu asked amusedly. He actually wanted to say that you should wipe the footprints off your bodies before you speak.
As soon as he heard the word "type", the thug shrank his head, but as if he remembered something, he resolutely stood in front and refused to get out of the way.
"Are you afraid of being beaten?" Zhuang Mingyue asked with some curiosity, he had never seen such an inconsiderate person, he was simply beaten in a hurry.
"Dangdang, of course! How can anyone not be afraid of being beaten? The thug was honest, and he didn't even want to deny it, so he directly admitted that he was afraid of being beaten.
"Are you guys a long-term disdain? Why stand in front and not get out of the way? Zhuang Mingyue held down Long Yuanxiu's hand that had been clenched into a fist, for fear that he would punch the thug with an impulse.
Zhuang Mingyue felt that these little gangsters today didn't seem to be like the little gangsters they usually met, the ordinary gangsters either robbed money or robbed sex, and they were as timid as mice. And they seem to be very persistent, as for what they are obsessed with, Zhuang Mingyue has no way of knowing, he is not narcissistic to the point where he thinks that the two gangsters he just met will be beaten for her.
Isn't it...... Zhuang Mingyue suddenly thought of a possibility. She whispered something to Long Yuanxiu.
The little gangster looked at the two who were muttering and talking with a puzzled expression, and just as Long Yuanxiu raised his eyes to look over, the little gangster subconsciously took two steps back in fear.
Long Yuanxiu grabbed the thugs and tied them together with their belts. "Now I'll ask you questions, and you'll answer them." Zhuang Mingyue stood next to her and said with a smile.
"You can only answer, there is no room for bargaining." Long Yuanxiu said viciously.
The two thugs looked at death as if they were at home, twisted their necks stubbornly, and ignored their words.
Zhuang Mingyue ignored their actions and asked directly, "Why do you say you're here?" β
The little gangster thinks it's funny, if you say this, I'll say it, then wouldn't I be very faceless? So the two of them tacitly chose to shut up, and the two thugs closed their eyes and said nothing.
Zhuang Mingyue had long expected that this might be the case, she glanced at Long Yuanxiu, Long Yuanxiu understood, and smashed a fist on the shoulder of the little gangster. The thug was in pain, opened his eyes and glared at the two of them angrily.
"Say, why are you waiting at this intersection?" Zhuang Mingyue repeated the question just now.
"Of course, it's for you, miss.
A thug said without fear of death.
This time, Zhuang Mingyue didn't need to understand, Long Yuanxiu almost crippled this little gangster.
"Don't don't, don't fight, I say! I say it all! The little thug was really scared this time, and said incoherently.
"We too, take people's money to eliminate disasters for others, this big brother, this big sister is really sorry." The thug said, looking at their faces, it didn't look like they were lying.
"Who ordered you to come?" Zhuang Mingyue asked puzzled. She has been very kind to people recently, and there should be no enemies. She felt that his former enemies would not use such despicable and obscene means against her. Because these methods are really too naΓ―ve.
Long Yuanxiu couldn't see that he couldn't ask anything, so he stunned the two gangsters and dragged Zhuang Mingyue back to the west shop. The staff in the shop worked in an orderly manner, and money was constantly pouring into the shop.
The more Zhuang Mingyue thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong with the jade pendant on the waist of the little gangster, she found a pen and paper, and drew the shape and appearance of the jade pendant from the paper.
"Hey, isn't this a jade pendant unique to the people of the Shen family?" Long Yuanxiu looked at the things on the paper curiously, "Why are you sending this?" β
"What!" Zhuang Mingyue couldn't figure it out, why were the Shen family's things in the hands of that little gangster? If they were really sent by the Shen family, then why did the Shen family do this?
So Zhuang Mingyue began to send people around to investigate the Shen family. The hard work paid off, and after more than ten days of investigation, she finally found out the clues. Zhuang Mingyue originally thought that the Shen family had a long memory after the incident last time, and they would no longer continue to meddle in the court. Who knows that they are still stubborn. Last time, the case of Dr. Yu Shi was hastily concluded, and the Shen family made a lot of efforts.
Zhuang Mingyue has thought about it for so many years, and those things that she couldn't understand at the time have a perfect explanation when she contacts the Shen family.
Scold! The people of the Shen family are really thieves, and they want to get involved in whatever they do.
In the past, because of Long Zhengning, in order to help him stabilize his position, the Shen family had been secretly befriending officials in the imperial court. Of course, in the current situation, it must be more than just making friends. There should be a larger conspiracy in place.
Zhuang Mingyue also found that the Shen clan not only openly and secretly got along with various court officials, but also actively traveled among the major forces. The interpersonal relationship is very well managed, and the person is quite tactful.
Zhuang Mingyue couldn't quite understand her purpose for doing this time. If it is said that for the sake of Long Zhengning, doing this will only harm Long Zhengning at all, without the slightest benefit.
If it was for herself, but with Shen's character, what was harmful to Long Zhengning, would she do it? However, the hearts of the people are separated from the belly, and Zhuang Mingyue is not very sure.
"What do you think? Why don't you sleep yet? Long Yuanxiu saw that Zhuang Mingyue was still sitting at the table with an oil lamp and looked at the pattern of the jade pendant, and asked puzzledly: "What's so beautiful about this jade pendant?" β
Zhuang Mingyue handed the paper with the jade pendant in Long Yuanxiu's hand, "Don't you think it's really strange for the Shen clan to do this this time?" She looked at Long Yuanxiu and said her reasoning just now.
"Well, from what you say, it's really wrong." Long Yuanxiu put down the drawings in his hand and blew out the oil lamp, "Okay, okay, let's put these things down first, let's talk about it tomorrow, and go to bed now." β
