Chapter 173 The only clue

Xiangqi Building——

"Why hasn't the prince come back?"

Shopkeeper Bai paced around the room a little anxiously, seeing Song Baoling sitting quietly beside him, he hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Miss Song, if the prince can't come back on time, isn't that person hopeless?"

Hearing this, Song Baoling looked up at him: "You don't trust Jun Tingsheng?"

"No, I'm just worried..."

"He said that we will meet in half an hour, and he will definitely come back on time."

As soon as the words fell, there was movement outside the door. Shopkeeper Bai opened the door and saw Jun Tingsheng.

There was already a doctor waiting in the room, and when Jun Tingsheng put the person on the bed, the doctor immediately treated him.

"It won't be discovered, will it?"

While wiping the stains on his hands, Jun Tingsheng shook his head and explained in a low voice: "Don't worry, I found a corpse with a similar figure and changed it halfway. If you don't check it carefully, you won't be found."

When the doctor was saving someone, Song Baoling was watching from the side, and knowing that Song Baoling had deliberately sealed the person's veins to stop breathing, he couldn't help but praise her for being extremely witty.

"If it weren't for Miss, this person would not be able to live."

After settling her down, Song Baoling was already exhausted, when she suddenly thought of another thing.

"By the way, I found a piece of paper in the ruins just now, and the handwriting on it still looks familiar."

As she spoke, she handed the torn piece of paper to Jun Tingsheng, and Jun Tingsheng also found the handwriting familiar after reading it.

"It does look familiar, but... I can't remember whose handwriting it is."

Shopkeeper Bai stood aside and glanced at it, and suddenly snatched the paper from Jun Tingsheng's hands. After reading it carefully, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said to the two of them, "This is the handwriting of the great scholar Lin Haiqing."

"Lin Haiqing?"

Faced with Song Baoling's doubts, shopkeeper Bai kindly explained: "Lin Haiqing was the accompanist of the late emperor when he was alive. He was upright and upright. After the death of the late emperor, he was named a bachelor."

"By the way, it is rumored that this person is not dealing with the regent. I don't know if it is true or not."

After hearing this, Song Baoling suddenly had a guess in his heart, "This time Jun Yinlu was poisoned, and the library that Quan Niang went to had his manuscripts, so I want to discuss this matter with him..."

Before she could finish speaking, Jun Tingsheng put the torn paper into his arms, "Ling'er, this is the end of this matter, don't delve into it any further."

Hearing this, Song Baoling was startled subconsciously, "Now we have clues, but you don't want to continue the investigation?"

"Still, who do you want to shield?"

Jun Tingsheng's expression changed suddenly, and he said sharply, "I said there is no need to investigate any more!"

The room was suddenly silent, and the air seemed to freeze. Song Baoling stared blankly at the person in front of him. This was the first time Jun Tingsheng yelled at her.

In the past, even if she did something wrong willfully, Jun Tingsheng would scold her at most, but he had never yelled at her like this.

At this time, Song Baoling felt very wronged in her heart. In order not to lose her momentum, she could only pretend to be angry and shouted: "If you don't check, don't check, you think I'm too idle!"

However, Jun Tingsheng seemed to be thinking about other things, and didn't realize that Song Baoling had been wronged, so he hurriedly left after explaining a few words.

Shopkeeper Bai is very good at reading people's eyes, looking at Song Baoling whose eyes are red, he explained in a somewhat helpless way: "Miss Song, don't be sad, my son has always done things properly, maybe..."

"Who is sad?! What does he do to me? I'm not sad!"

Song Baoling replied angrily, and left without waiting for Shopkeeper Bai to speak again with a cold face.

Shopkeeper Bai subconsciously chased to the door, looked at Song Baoling who left angrily, and thought: This is also good, so that the prince will not be distracted by her again.

Song Mansion——

"Stinky boy! Thanks to my being so kind to you, you dare to betray me!"

"I didn't do anything, big sister, please let me go, I don't know anything..."

As soon as Song Baoling entered the yard, he heard the commotion in the house, went in and saw that Song Baozhu was dragging Song Lianmu to beat him, and the strength of his hands seemed to be ruthless.

"stop!"

Seeing Song Baoling, the two people in the room had different expressions on their faces. Song Lianmu immediately cried and shouted when he saw the person coming: "Sister Ling'er, save me, elder sister is crazy and wants to kill me."

Song Baozhu became even more angry when she heard this, and immediately raised her hand to slap again, but before the slap fell, a cold voice suddenly sounded.

"Do you dare to move him again!"

The voice was almost in his ear, Song Baozhu turned his head subconsciously, and at some point Song Baoling had already arrived in front of him.

Song Baoling opened her hand with a cold face, and carefully helped Song Lianmu up, "Are you all right? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Song Lianmu bit his lip and shook his head, then hid behind Song Baoling, looking at his own sister with fear.

"Song Baoling, what is the relationship between you and Jun Yinlu?"

Song Baozhu pre-emptively asked about her relationship with Jun Yinlu. Song Baoling guessed that she knew that she had gone to the Regent's Palace yesterday, and she was afraid that Jun Yinlu would empathize with him.

"I'm just handling things for the regent, what relationship can I have with his son?"

After finishing speaking, Song Baoling pretended to be curious and asked back: "But you suddenly asked, do you know Jun Yinlu?"

Song Baozhu carefully identified it for a while, felt that Song Baoling didn't seem to be lying, and immediately denied it: "I don't know him, how could I know him."

"But my mother said a few days ago that she wanted me to meet him. After all, I am the eldest lady of the Song family. Only someone like him is suitable for me. However, I am still considering whether to meet him."

Knowing that she was lying, Song Baoling didn't expose it, and after a chuckle, he dragged Song Lianmu away.

Song Baozhu stood there stunned, and after recovering, she shouted at the backs of the two: "Song Baoling, are you laughing at me?"

"Let me tell you, don't think I can't get married without the Pei family. There are so many people who want to marry me..."

As if he didn't hear her words, Song Baoling continued to move forward without stopping. Song Lianmu beside him looked up at her: "Sister Ling'er, the elder sister seems to be talking to you."

"If you have time to talk to her, why don't you tell me what happened just now?"

Song Lianmu sighed wearily, and said dejectedly: "My mother found out that there was a man's belt in the elder sister's room, and then she was reprimanded, but she thought it was me who told the secret, and she also said..."

"I also said that she had noticed that I was peeping, but I insisted on denying it. She got angry and hit me."

After listening to the cause and effect, Song Baoling seriously explained to Song Lianmu again: "You must never tell about your elder sister, you must remember it."

Although he didn't know why Song Baoling asked him to keep it a secret, Song Lianmu also knew the seriousness of this matter, so he nodded seriously.

"Well, I listen to you, and I must not tell others."
