Your Highness, the princess is going to paint your portrait

Chapter 12

Jing Chun naturally wanted to hide as far as he could. If he was recognized, he would not only lose his life in Jingfu, but also in Jingzhao Mansion.

Jing Chun made an excuse to wait outside the house, but Jiang and Jin seemed to have done it on purpose and said leisurely: "Don't you want to ask Miss Jing a question? Without further ado, Lu Chi, ask everyone to come to the front yard."

Jiang Hejin's words clearly meant not to let Jing Chun avoid him. Seeing that the people from the Shangyi Bureau were about to come, if they met, Jing Chun's identity would be revealed. Jing Chun was in Jingfu and Jingzhaofu. Do you still have a good time?
This was not a clear intention to embarrass Jing Chun.

Lu Chi took a look at the secret fight between the two parties. Although he felt sorry for Jing Chun being tripped up like this, he could only obey Jiang Hejin's orders.

Sure enough, there are some things that only Jiang and Jin can do.

Jiang Hejin has always been used to pretending. He was already dissatisfied with the marriage, but when he thought of Jing Chun's disdainful appearance yesterday, he felt a kind of contempt in his heart. He just saw someone who saw through him and didn't want to pretend anymore , "It's a great kindness for me not to reveal your identity in front of outsiders, and don't expect me to save you."

Jing Chun was shocked, and then said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Li Wang can't see me well?"

It's not just that he can't see Jing Chunhao?Jiang Hejin was waiting for Jing Chun to stumble in front of him, and this was just a warning!

Jiang Hejin turned to look at Jing Chun, but his eyes suddenly became sinister, "Why do you need to ask these things?"

Jing Chun could see through this man's thoughts and did not reply. Without saying a word, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and tied it on his face, saying: "Go back to your highness, this little man is ugly and has a pockmarked face, so he had to cover it with a silk handkerchief." In the end, please don’t blame His Highness Prince Li."

Such a trick of "still holding the pipa and half covering the face", it seems that Jiang Hejin still underestimated Jing Chun's strength.

Jiang Hejin showed a slight chill, but then greeted Wen Siyi's salute with a smile.

This conversion is faster than Jing Chun flipping through a book!
This person is real and fake, fake and real, he has two different faces, but he is really good at doing evil.

Jing Chun was also worried that he would be recognized by the people from the Clothing Bureau, so he didn't dare to say anything. He kept his head down the whole time for fear of being seen. Fortunately, Wen Siyi's attention was entirely on the wedding clothes.

Lu Chi also called Jing Chun over in time, and Jing Chun was able to escape. But Jing Chun also knew that Jiang Hejin was a very powerful person, so since he wanted to deal with Jing Chun, he didn't have to worry about having no means.

In the front yard, there were five groups of people standing in the palace, about twelve in each row, three rows of men and two rows of women.

Jing Chun first looked at the women in the two rows, and the shoes on their feet were all pink single shoes.

Jing Chun asked the housekeeper of the palace and found out that Jiang and Jin never liked colorful colors. Everything in the palace was all plain color, even the clothes Jiang and Jin wore on weekdays, as well as potted plants and trees. There are green leaves but no red flowers, so don’t dare to add any more colors.

Even the shoes of the servants in the house were the same. Men's shoes were changed to black, and women's shoes were changed to plain pink.

Jing Chun swept away the shoes that everyone was wearing, and asked, "Has anyone worn green-pink embroidered shoes?"

"No, no..." Butler Wang hurriedly shook his head, and said, "The palace has rules, not to mention blue and pink, I have never seen even embroidered shoes, and all the servants and maids eat like a fool, no one wants to ruin it Isn't it the rule?"

The entire palace had to strictly select the color of the shoes, just thinking about it is scary, if this person is tortured, I really don't know what will happen.

Jing Chun frowned, and asked quietly, "Are there no complaints?"

Steward Wang shook his head like a rattle, "How dare you? How dare we servants complain to our master?"

Jing Chun let out a "tsk", and only lamented that the migrant workers have no spirit in the world of migrant workers.

Interjecting a digression, Jing Chun began to re-examine the men in the third row.

Since Jiang Hejin is said to be a woman, it is impossible for the man to be a domestic thief. After all, the rules in the palace are strict, but anyone with unclean hands and feet will not stay here.

However, it is possible that internal and external collusion stole Tianshan snow lotus. After all, being able to steal Tianshan snow lotus must have some understanding of the palace.

Jing Chun's analysis was so in-depth that he didn't even notice that there were more people behind him.

Jing Chun spread out the drawing paper and shouted to everyone, "Does anyone know the person in this painting?"

The people in the courtyard looked at me and I looked at you, and they all shook their heads.

Jing Chun didn't believe in evil, and let people look at each row, and they all said "I haven't seen it".

"You really haven't seen it before?"

Jing Chun looked around, only to see a servant raised his head to look at Jing Chun, and quickly lowered his head again.

Relying on self-consciousness, Jing Chun felt that this person was not simple.

Jing Chun passed through the crowd and walked up to that person, presented the drawing paper in front of the person, and asked, "Have you seen this person before?"

"No, no..."

But looking at Jing Chun's approaching eyes, the man knelt down hastily and said, "Your Highness, I really haven't seen this man before."

Your Highness?

Jing Chun looked behind him, and at some point, Jiang and Jin sat on the pavilion behind Jing Chun.

This scene reminded Jing Chun of the story of "the fox pretends to be the tiger".

Jiang Hejin lowered his eyebrows and glanced at the courtyard. His expression didn't look harsh, and he said, "Just answer whatever the well painter asks you? Can the palace teach you not to lie?"

"Yes... Your Highness."

Seeing this, Jing Chun didn't hesitate, directly blocked Yan Huai's line of sight, and asked forcefully, "Why are you trembling if you haven't seen this person before?"

However, Yan Huai lowered his head and said with trembling body: "Minion, I am timid by nature..."

With just this sentence, Yan Huai stopped talking again.

When Butler Wang saw this, he had no choice but to step forward and say: "Well Painter, Yan Huai is speechless when he is nervous. He has always been as timid as a mouse. He doesn't even dare to kill a chicken, let alone steal something so big." It’s over.”

Jing Chun didn't believe this, killing chickens and stealing things were two different things, and being as timid as a mouse didn't mean he couldn't steal things.

"Then what did you do the night before?"

"He went to the theater to listen to the opera. Yan Huai didn't have any hobbies, he just liked to listen to the opera. He asked me to work that night."

Butler Wang pointed at a few people and said: "We all saw him when he left. He came back just after the house was robbed. It was almost a certain time before and after. When we saw the thief, Yan Huai He's still nearby. If the two of them were colluding, how could Yan Huai dare to come back? He would have run away long ago..."

A few more servants said, "I was there at the right time, it was indeed not Yan Huai's doing."

"It is impossible for anyone to be Yan Huai colluding with outsiders. Yan Huai is just a coward, not a thief..."

There were quite a few witnesses, chattering as if Jing Chun threatened Yan Huai, they all complained about injustice.

Fortunately, Steward Wang controlled the situation, which gave Jing Chun a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, listening to the words of these people, Jing Chun's doubts were dispelled. At least the person who stole the Tianshan Snow Lotus was not Yan Huai, but looking closely at Yan Huai's timid look, it seemed that there was something to do with it.

It's just a feeling. Can Jing Chun make the feeling come true?

In this way, we could only start with the few people who came in and out of Jiang Hejin's dormitory on weekdays. But after asking around, we still found nothing. They all said that they had never seen this person before.

Jing Chun was also at a loss, and couldn't find any clues.
