Bing Zheng said, "That year, Du Mubai stole this poem of mine."
His mood and tone were very calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
This poem was indeed very beautiful!
The flying catkin in April was in the south, and the orchid bamboo was also in Jiangnan.
The small bridge in Jiangnan was too beautiful to behold.
Ji Yunshu looked at him from head to toe and asked, "Is Young Master Bing from the south?"
"No, I'm from the north."
"This poem describes the scenery of Jiangnan."
Bing Zheng said indifferently, "I've been there, so I've seen it. That's why I wrote this poem."
"Jiangnan's orchid bamboo, what a beautiful name!" Ji Yunshu said.
"Of course, the heart of the bamboo can be empty, but it's of noble character and unquestionable integrity! Of course it's a beautiful name. "
"Oh." A trace of a smile immediately flashed across Ji Yunshu's face when she heard his reply. She took a step forward, and her eyes carried a shrewd and farsighted luster as she continued to ask, "Then, I wonder if Young Master Bing has eaten a type of food called Cunzhi?"
"I've never heard of it. I only know that the flying catkin in April is very bad in the south. That year, I went there with rashes on my body and face, so I only stayed for a few days before leaving."
"I see!" Ji Yunshu said.
The bystanders didn't understand why Ji Yunshu suddenly asked Bing Zheng if he had eaten Cun Zhi.
What did this have to do with food?
But Jing Rong, who was at the side, saw it clearly.
He knew what Ji Yunshu wanted to do.
He smiled inwardly.
He laughed at how smart his woman was.
He laughed at how Bing Zheng revealed a flaw and was completely unaware of it.
But …
He and Ji Yunshu didn't say it out loud.
Ji Yunshu smiled again and went straight to the point, "Let's stop asking about the poem. In fact, I wanted to ask you if you know a girl named Su Qiao."
"I don't know her!" He said without thinking.
It was as if he really didn't know her. Ji Yunshu took two steps in front of him, "This girl named Su Qiao was the victim of the stone case. She and Du Mubai were both from Nanshen Province. Three years after Du Mubai's death, she came to Gao Ding to find out if Du Mubai had really committed suicide. But if she wanted to find out, she had to find
He is the person closest to Du Mubai, so he invited you here. If Su Qiao really did look for you back then, and you're hiding something, when the time comes, you'll have to take responsibility for what you said today! "
With a warning tone.
When Fang Tong heard this, he hurriedly said, "This matter has already been investigated that year, and Du Mubai himself was unable to defend himself even a hundred times. How could it be false?"
Jang Wen chimed in, "Yeah! I've already investigated everything. "
But —
Bingzheng smiled and said in a deep voice, "Even if it's fake, he's already dead. If he owes something, he can only repay it in his next life."
His words were ambiguous.
Because he really couldn't get anything out of them, Li Cheng let them leave.
Before Bing Zheng left, he gave Ji Yunshu a meaningful glance.
The case seemed to have been disconnected.
Once again, there was no way to investigate.
She turned to Li Cheng and said, "Crown Prince Cheng, I want to study this file for another night. I will return it tomorrow morning."
"Of course, you can look at it as long as you want."
Li Cheng was just short of giving himself to her.
"Also, I want Crown Prince Cheng to give me a token from the city's department to facilitate my work."
"No problem!"
Li Cheng immediately took out the token he always carried with him and gave it to her.
He didn't even ask why.
Because he trusted her.
On the way back, Jing Rong, Ji Yunshu, and Song Zhi sat together in the carriage.
Ji Yunshu was silent as if she was thinking about something.
Song Zhi held his breath, for fear of disturbing something.
Jing Rong coughed and said, "Young Master Song."
Song Zhi immediately replied, "Here."
"Did you remember the poem Bingzheng recited just now?"
Song Zhi said, "Of course I remember such a beautiful poem." He brewed his emotions and recited it with great emotion. "In the fourth month, the catkins fly in the air. Old people smell the lake. Orchids and bamboos fight in the spring rain. On a small bridge, there is Jiangnan. Just these few words are enough to show the scenery of Jiangnan. "
"Then, do you know that there is a kind of food in Jiangnan called Cunzhi?"
"This … I don't think I've heard of it."
"Have you been to Jiangnan?"
"No."
"Then, do you know where the catkins fly in the fourth month of Jiangnan can be found?"
"I'd like to hear the details."
Jing Rong didn't reveal the truth. He only said, "Perhaps you will know tomorrow."
He's keeping me in suspense! Song Zhi didn't ask further. Instead, he said, "Oh, right. Today, I went to the study room specially arranged for the scholars to live in. It is very big and very clean. I was thinking that if I don't pass this year, I will live in the study room after three years. Moreover, outsiders have to register before entering, so it is very safe.
。”
Jing Rong said, "With your talent, you will definitely not fail the examination."
"You don't know, but when I went to the poetry competition that day, I saw many scholars, especially one called Xue He. Everyone said that he will be one of the top three candidates."
"Even if you pass the top three, there will still be two! You will definitely succeed! "
"Since Young Master Jing has such high expectations of me, I will definitely do my best."
Jing Rong smiled.
On the way back, Ji Yunshu didn't say anything.
After returning to the residence, Ji Yunshu sat in her room and read the perfectly written file.
She continued reading until the night.
She suddenly closed the file and got up to leave.
Outside the door, Jing Rong was waiting for her.
"Why are you here?"
"I have always been outside." He said, "Let's go."
"You know where I am going?" Ji Yunshu was slightly surprised.
Jing Rong's lips curled into a smile. "How can I not know what you are thinking in your heart?"
He knew it very well.
Ji Yunshu smiled. "Then let's go. Don't waste time."
"You want to go like this?"
"Huh?"
Jing Rong entered the room and took out a cloak from inside. He draped it over her.
She wrapped it tightly.
This scene was seen by Bai Yin. He sat in the distance and didn't disturb them. He only said from a distance, "No matter where you are going, I will go with you. I don't want to stay here and worry."
Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu looked at each other.
Thus, the three of them went out together.
Not long after, they arrived at the study room.
Most of the scholars were studying in their rooms, so the study room was deserted.
When the three of them reached the door, they were stopped by the doorman.
"You are?"
Ji Yunshu took out the token she got from Li Cheng. "We are from the yamen."
"Oh, it turns out to be several adults!" The doorman's attitude changed. "May I know why you are here so late at night?"
"To investigate a case."
"Investigate a case?"
"It's about Du Mubai's case."
The doorman trembled and quickly said, "I will go inside and inform them."
"There's no need for that. Just bring us in."
"This …"
"The yamen is handling matters. We don't want too many people to know."
