Chapter 73 Little Thief
"Don't believe me?" Si Ruiyan looked at her coldly, his eyes fixed.

It was believed that he had already burned it, so as not to be noticed and cause trouble.

He remembered the symbols on it clearly, and there would never be a typo.

"The fourth prince is an upright person, and he says what he says, so how can I not believe it." Xiao Wanying laughed softly, like a proud poisonous snake.

While speaking, she quietly put the letter in her sleeve.

Seeing her little action, Si Ruiyan frowned.

Earlier, Xiao Ning told her that Xiao Wanying was not a righteous person.He once seduced the sons of merchants and defrauded 5 taels of gold to buy the queen's former celebrity, intending to frame her as a disaster star and drive her out of the capital.

In order to prove her innocence, she went to the Regent's Palace twice.

Originally, he thought that Xiao Ning deliberately dragged Xiao Wanying, a deadly enemy, into the water in order to hide something.

Looking at it now, Xiao Wanying has a suspicious temperament and is definitely not a good person.

Xiao Wanying got what she wanted, but she didn't want to leave directly, so as not to expose her intentions too clearly. She sat dignifiedly on the guest seat, smiling without showing her teeth, looking like a scheming and scheming cat. To pretend to be a friendly fox.

"You have been with Lingtang since you were a child. Didn't she teach you the script of the clan?" Si Ruiyan didn't believe that she couldn't read a single word.

The words on the letter were obscure and hard to understand, and ordinary people looked like a pile of densely packed earthworms.He never thought that one day he would be able to translate all of them, but as long as he could know a few words in it, he could slowly deduce the content of the letter.

"Staying by Mother's side is just to learn women's etiquette. If Mother wanted to teach me characters, she would have written a translation a long time ago. There is no need to bother to teach me." Xiao Wanying glanced at the red apricot blossoms on her nails. , very happy.

Si Ruiyan was silent, and sneered secretly from his lowered eyes.

If Xiao's mother hadn't taught her, how could she be so happy.She wished to take everything from her mother's family for herself, so that she could be a high-ranking person who was equivalent to a princess.

The letter he gave was true, but what Xiao Wanying said to him was false.

"Li Shiping." Si Ruiyan said a name coldly.

As soon as the words came out, Xiao Wanying's smile froze for a moment.

"This man is cheating and abducting everywhere by relying on the little tricks in the rivers and lakes. He has deceived the common people as well as the high-ranking officials and nobles. He has deceived all the government officials who arrested him. He has a perfect tongue and even deceived the palace. The inner court."

Si Ruiyan turned to look at Xiao Wanying, staring at her gradually distorted face.

"Maybe you've heard the name before?" He whispered coldly.

Xiao Wanying's heart trembled, but the corners of her mouth rose even higher after a while.But that smiling face seemed to be pulled up by someone's hand, it was very ugly.

"There are countless people with the surname Li, and I really haven't heard of this name before." She turned her head and looked to the side, her eyes trembling slightly, "Why does the fourth prince think I know?"

Si Ruiyan locked his eyes coldly, and said deeply: "This person is the celebrity in front of the queen, and she jokingly called her the national teacher. In order to prevent the mother of a country from being slandered by the magic stick, the emperor conferred a state title on him." Teacher's false duty.

"If it wasn't for the queen's face, how could the emperor be deceived by that treacherous villain.

Xiao Wanying's breathing was a little messy, she stood up and said, "Since I'm the national teacher, it has nothing to do with me, a girl who doesn't go out of the boudoir in three steps. The fourth prince told me what to do. It's troublesome to bother me for a long time. Fourth Prince, farewell."

Si Ruiyan stood in front of her, with a pair of sword eyebrows slantingly flying, as sharp as a sword.

"I have ordered someone to investigate the son of the silk forging village. He was short of 5 taels of gold, and then deliberately set fire to three of his own villages. He made fake accounts, pretended to be losses, and offset the accounts. It's gone." Si Ruiyan originally ordered someone to investigate at random, but he didn't expect to find out something strange.

The 5 taels of gold happened to be copied out of Li Shiping's home.

Even if he has traveled the rivers and lakes and been deceived for many years, he will definitely not be able to cheat 5 taels of gold.The queen would never dare to give him so much money, otherwise she would not be able to secure her position in the harem, let alone raise a celebrity.

That Mr. Silk Forging Zhuang had no grievances or enmities with Xiao Ning, it was impossible to give such a big sum of 5 taels to that magic stick to harm Xiao Ning.

The only possibility is that he was also being used.

Si Ruiyan's people arrested him at will and questioned him, and he honestly said that Xiao Ning asked him to borrow it, and kept saying that it was for relatives, but the 5 taels of gold silver note was found in the home of the confiscated man. .

He burned Zhuangzi in time, made false accounts, and spent a lot of money to bribe the pawnbroker.Ask the shopkeeper to delete the number on the bank note for him, and record a new number.

All pawnshop banknotes in this dynasty are not randomly issued, and everyone's banknotes will have their own number.One can determine the money of each family to avoid unjust windfall.Second, it also prevents merchants from evading taxes and enriching their own pockets.

The people in the government office may have also taken a little advantage from the young master, turning a blind eye to the small act of arson, and directly determined it as a fire.

The matter passed peacefully.

That young master was very cautious and didn't dare to investigate further, so as not to get involved in the business relationship with that magic stick, Xiao Wanying also escaped by luck.

"What silk and satin village, what fake accounts, I didn't understand a word the fourth prince said. I think it's because the fourth prince took too much medicine and his mind is not clear. I'd better ask my sister to find a doctor for you to save you from talking nonsense Nonsense." Xiao Wanying bypassed him and continued walking.

In order to avoid further obstruction by Si Ruiyan, she added: "I heard that cousin Ning'er intends to buy a big house, and also wants to buy all four directions. I really don't know whether to buy it to live in, or to do other things. If the fourth prince has time to spare, why not help me choose a place with a good geomantic omen."

Si Ruiyan's eyes sank, what kind of house should I buy?
This startle just gave Xiao Wanying a chance.She pursed her lips and smiled, and said as she walked: "Cousin Ning'er has cooperated with the newly opened academy, and it is said that the response is very good. There are so many young talents, maybe the house is bought to entertain them."

Her tone rose slightly, with a hint of complacency.

Si Ruiyan didn't listen to her last words, only thinking about buying a house.Xiao Wanying has a heart of snakes and scorpions, and has been avoiding the matter of buying the magic stick, which shows that she has already laid a cruel hand on Xiao Ning.

She and Xiao Qi are grasshoppers in the same boat, and she has hated Xiao Ning for a long time.Even if she admits that she intended to harm Xiao Ning, it doesn't matter, the young master has destroyed the evidence, it is tantamount to death without proof.

An intelligent woman like Xiao Wanying would know that she has nothing to worry about.But even so, she didn't choose to be honest with herself.

Talking about being friends and relatives is just superficial hypocrisy.

Si Ruiyan looked at Xiao Wanying's leaving back with cold eyes.

In front of the gate of the Song family, Xiao Wanying's chest was beating like a drum, and her expression suddenly changed.She gently covered her throbbing chest, panting slightly.

Just now, Si Ruiyan's gaze was like a cold and sharp sword, piercing straight into her heart, as if trying to kill her soul.

She was almost driven into a panic.

Xiao Wanying gritted her teeth, her eyes were full of anger.

Unexpectedly, even Si Ruiyan, who is so cold, is now facing Xiao Ning, not only investigating the past framed matter for her, but also targeting herself.

Si Ruiyan turned towards her when he was in Prince Yin's mansion, and it could also be said that in front of outsiders, it was inconvenient for him to turn his elbow outward.But there were only two people in that room, and Si Ruiyan asked coldly, if she hadn't run fast, she still doesn't know where she is now.
