With a stomach full of questions, Ning Shu and Hui Mo walked out of the Dali Temple.
Ning Shu politely saluted: "Shaoqing Tan, please stay. We can go to Xunfang Station by ourselves. The people related to the case are all in the Dali Temple. After you carefully interrogate them, please tell my daughter the results."
She couldn't count on the Ministry of Justice. In the case of Old Princess Yu, Wang Han showed obvious hostility to her. Today, His Majesty asked her to solve the case. She heard that it was Wang Han who pushed her into the fire pit. She would be thankful if he didn't hit her when she was down. Chen Zecheng of the Jingji Prefecture also had a grudge with her before. So her only hope was in the Dali Temple. Tan Siwei had a delicate and amiable babyface, but he was much more loyal than the others when it came to doing things.
For the convenience of investigating the case, she tied up all her hair into a single spiral bun. She only wore a white jade hairpin in the shape of a jade rabbit. Her entire neck was exposed, looking clear and elegant. When she nodded, she slightly lowered her head, so her slender white neck was outlined by the collar into a beautiful crescent moon shape.
Tan Siwei only glanced at it and hurriedly looked away. He said in a hurry: "This is my duty as an official. Miss, you don't have to treat me like an outsider. Moreover, I'm flattered to have the opportunity to work with you to solve such a big case! By the way, the murderer of this case is extremely cruel. I'm afraid the process of solving the case will be very dangerous. Please be careful. "
His eyes were watery and his words were sincere, like a shy girl. This appearance made Ning Shu even more suspicious. She immediately glanced sharply at Hui Mo, who was desperately hiding beside her, as if to say: You better explain to me what's going on later. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless.
"Haha … Shaoqing Daren is too polite. Thank you."
"Ah, you're too polite. No need."
"Yes, yes, you're too polite." Ning Shu braced herself and chatted with Tan Siwei. Just when she was about to leave, she saw Forsythia's carriage stopped in front of the Dali Temple. Her mother and Princess Xin came down from the carriage with a smile.
Ning Shu's eyes lit up in surprise, and she was about to go forward to help him up.
Princess He Xin covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed. She joked: "Shu 'er, you are too polite. Why are you treating Shaoqing like an outsider? We are going to be a family in the future anyway. "
What???!
"What is Mother talking about? Why can't I understand? "Ning Shu's smile stiffened.
Princess He Xin walked over and intimately held Ning Shu's hand and patted it: "Shu'er, are you shy? Didn't mother mention it to you before? Your father and I both felt that Prime Minister Tan's youngest son, Tan Shaoqing, was extremely good in both appearance and character. Thus, we spoke to the Prime Minister and his wife. Later, you were summoned into the palace by the Empress and were thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Justice because of your crimes. Mother was extremely worried and thought that the marriage was over. She didn't expect that Tan Shaoqing didn't mind at all. Instead, he took the initiative to propose marriage when we were at our lowest point. How could your father and I not agree? We were just waiting for you to come out of prison to tell you the good news. "
"But!"
Ning Shu was extremely anxious. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Princess He Xin: "But what? Oh, Mother knows. It must be because you are embarrassed to say this in front of Tan Shaoqing. It's Mother's fault. I forgot about this. Good, good, good. Shaoqing still has official business to attend to, so we won't disturb him. "
Princess He Xin nodded slightly at Tan Siwei. Tan Siwei hurriedly performed a junior's greeting. Then, with a red face, he bowed to Ning Shu and went back to interrogate the suspects.
After Tan Siwei left, Ning Shu finally had a chance to speak: "Mother, why didn't you discuss this marriage with me in advance? Why did you decide it in such a hurry?"
Princess He Xin revealed a surprised expression: "On the fifteenth day of last year, you were playing on the swing. While playing, you suddenly fell from the swing and fell unconscious. Mother waited by your side for three days and three nights before you woke up. When you woke up, the first thing you said was: Please ask me and your father to quickly arrange a marriage for you. As long as it wasn't from the imperial family, you wouldn't object to any family's young master. At that time, we thought you were muddle-headed from the fall and said something stupid. You swore to the heavens: Everything will be decided by me and your father. Even if you are crippled and stupid, you are willing to marry. Otherwise, you will be struck by lightning. Only then did we take it seriously. Previously, your father helped you find a match for Young General Song, Third Young Master Qi, and later Cloud Leaf. You didn't have any objections. Unfortunately, there were many accidents later and the marriage never came to fruition … Now, Prime Minister Tan's family's young master took the initiative to propose marriage. This is such a rare thing. It would be difficult to find a more suitable candidate than Tan Shaoqing. Moreover, Tan Shaoqing also said that you had a good chat with him in prison. What's wrong? Is Shu 'er blaming Niangqin? "
