Chapter 276 Serial Meter

The bodyguard surrounded him, but was blocked by Mo Junqing: "Prince, there are many doubts about this matter. Why don't you let Princess Mu finish it?"

"Mu Qingya, what else do you have to say? What evidence do you think Situ Fenghua is going to poison Situ's head?" Mo Junming took a look at Mo Junqing, who saluted respectfully in front of him, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, but he agreed. It seemed that this third brother really cared about Mu Qingya.

"Of course, there is evidence. Your Highness, please make it clear that this birthday gift was prepared by Major General Situ Fenghua."

Situ Yanran's expression changed: "Mu Qingya, you obviously brought this birthday gift. How could my uncle get it? Is there any prince in your eyes that you can tell a lie that even three-year-old children don't believe? Do you think the prince will believe you?

"Why is Princess Situ so anxious? Will the prince believe that it's not up to you? The prince will naturally have his own judgment. To be honest, am I disrespectful to the prince? Since I have always said it clearly, it's better for Princess Situ to be quiet.

"You..."

Mo Junming looked at Situ Yanran with dissatisfaction: "Mu Qingya is right, Situ Yanran, listen quietly!"

Situ Yanran's eyes were full of continuous hatred, and her eyes were like a sword. She couldn't wait to smash Mu Qingya into ten thousand pieces, but when the prince opened her mouth, she dared not interrupt Mu Qingya again.

Mu Qingya took out a bill from the cuff and handed it to Mo Junming beside him: "Please Mingjian. This paper was issued by Duobao Pavilion, the source of this painting. Because Qingya only received the invitation from the Situ family three days ago, so she didn't have time to prepare the birthday gift, so she thought that this Duobao Pavilion was the property of Major General Situ Fenghua, and In Shangjing, he had an excellent reputation, so he went to see if there was anything suitable for birthday gifts. Unexpectedly, he actually met Zhang Ze's favorite painting by the owner of the Situ family, which cost 80,000 taels of silver to buy the painting and let the people of Duobao Pavilion frame it and send it here. Today is also the first time for Qingya. I saw this picture."

How is this possible! Is this painting from Duobao Pavilion?

All the people of the Situ family were stunned on the spot, and Situ Fenghua frowned: "Nonsense! Princess Mu, Duobao Pavilion is my property. If there are paintings that my father likes in it, how can I not offer them to my father but sell them?

Mu Qingya raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Originally, I was also strange why Duobao Pavilion sold paintings, but today after listening to Lord Xu's words, I realized that this painting is fake!"

Many people nodded. Originally, they also thought that Situ Fenghua should not sell this painting, but if this painting is fake, it makes a point. After all, he can't take a fake painting as a birthday gift to his father, so it is also acceptable to sell it. A fake painting was sold for 80,000 taels of silver. What a large amount!

"If Major General Situ doesn't believe it, you can verify this certificate in person. There can be the fingerprints and signature of the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion, as well as the seal of Duobao Pavilion, which is absolutely impossible. If the young general doesn't believe it, just send someone to bring the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion to ask, oh, and Yes, when I left the palace, I met Mr. Zhao Duo. When I bought this painting, he was also present. He can prove it. After buying it, the painting was framed in Duobao Pavilion and sent directly to Situ Mansion until today!"

Situ Fenghua's face looked so hard that he never thought that the painting was from Duobao Pavilion.

Zhao Duo, dressed in a black shirt, came out with a folding fan in his hand, and his handsome face was full of lament: "I really saw a good play today. Princess Mu, who have you offended? It's really impermanent and ancient that someone framed you like this. The prince, your highnesses, the owner of the Situ family, the major general, and Zhao Duo can testify that this painting was indeed bought in the Duobao Pavilion. However, I think the problem should not be from the Duobao Pavilion. After all, that's the major general's property. The major general will not poison it. My father's."

Zhao Duo's words made Situ Fenghua's face more and more ugly. Zhao Duo's words were like a knife peeling away the matter, so that everyone couldn't help guessing what blood behind the matter was.

Situ Canolin's face could no longer maintain the original majesty. He looked at Situ Fenghua with a pale face: "Prince, when things are like this, let's send someone to bring the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion. This matter has to be investigated." In front of so many people, or at his birthday banquet, you have to find out. If you don't make it clear, you don't want Situ Fenghua's reputation!

Mo Junming nodded: "Okay, come on, go and bring the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion."

Situ Canglin looked at the people below and said, "Today made you laugh. Today was originally my birthday gift, which shocked you. I will definitely make amends for it another day."

As soon as the words were said, the people naturally showed a flattered expression. Situ Canglin's status in Canglan can be said to be second only to the royal family. He is a killer trained on the battlefield. It can be said that it is extremely difficult to hear such soft words. Naturally, they dare not bear it.

Duanmu Mingli was relieved. The situation just now was really critical. If Qingya can't prove the source of this birthday gift, I'm afraid it's inevitable, but I don't know if the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion will bite back.

Mu Qingya raised her eyes slightly, but she had never heard that when the head of the Situ family was subdued, he was planning for his son today. He was really an old fox-like figure. He also guessed that he must have come prepared today for fear that the shopkeeper would bring him to say it later. If it is unfavorable to Situ Fenghua, it will pave the way for you first and make everyone feel flattered. Then it will not difficult to say something else and shirk the crime! However, she did not intend to do anything to Situ Fenghua. A small birthday gift was just from Situ Fenghua's industry, and she was not sure that it was prepared by Situ Fenghua herself. She couldn't help it! Looking at Zhao Duo with a folding fan in his hand, he thought that the person who wanted to win her trust should have arranged everything.

Zhao Duo has a faint smile on his lips, with brilliance and gorgeous colors in his eyes, and the folding fan in his hand is slightly open. It is the mountain and river map that Mu Qingya has seen. However, there is a bloody sunset on this mountain and river map, and a little red color is particularly bright on the black and white ink mountain and river map. Contact with Mu Qingya's eyes, the smile at the corners of his lips subsided a little and blinked slightly.

The banquet stalled, and everyone quietly waited for the news.

Situ Yanran was anxious. Originally, she thought that things would go smoothly, but she didn't expect it to be until now. Mu Qingya's birthday gift was obviously arranged by her. How could it come from Duobao Pavilion? This is absolutely impossible! Mu Qingya must be lying, and that Zhao Duo. Did he have an affair with Mu Qingya to help her like this? Be sure to find a way to expose them!

An hour has passed, and the bodyguard who went out to take the shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion has not come back yet. A trace of uneasiness flashed in Situ Fenghua's eyes. Duobao Pavilion is only two quarter of an hour back and forth from Situ's mansion. How could it be delayed for so long?

After a while, a bodyguard hurried back: "I told the prince that the Duobao Pavilion was on fire, and the shopkeeper was burned when fighting the fire. There was no breath when he pulled him out."

Situ Fenghua frowned and the Duobao Pavilion caught fire?

Mo Junming: "How can you catch fire for no reason? Is it so coincidental? But is there a guy still alive?

"Try to the prince that ten other guys are fine and have been brought to the door by me."

"Well, bring them up."

Soon, ten people were brought up. These people had never seen such a big scene in their lives. They all knelt on the ground tremblingly and dared not look up.

"The prince asked you, you have to answer truthfully and don't lie, do you understand?"

"Grass people understand... understand..." The uneven answer was obviously trembling.

"Three days ago, did you sell a painting by Zhang Ze in Duobao Pavilion?"

Several people moved slightly and looked at a man kneeling in the middle. The man did not dare to look up and kowtowed two times on the ground: "To tell the prince, Cao Min knows that the shopkeeper did sell a painting. At that time, Mr. Zhao and Miss Mu bought it together. At that time, the Cao people did not dare to receive it, so he called the shopkeeper over. As for whose painting, Cao Min did not know."

Mu Qingya's eyes were stained with a little smile, and it seemed that Zhao Duo arranged it well.

Situ Yanran shouted coldly: "Bold slave, do you know the end of lying in His Royal Highness? Mr. Zhao and Miss Mu, do you know the person who went to buy paintings?

Duanmu Mingli's eyes were cold, and she stood beside Mu Qingya and said, "Princess Situ, do you mean that this slave is lying?"

"When did I say that, just..."

Mo Junming's cold eyes fell on Situ Yanran, and a sharp light flashed in his dark eyes. The bitch dared to interrupt his question so arrogantly. Such a cold feeling made Situ Yanran involuntarily shut up.

Situ Canglin said, "Presumptuous, Yanran, you are so rude in front of His Royal Highness. It seems that my punishment for you last time was too light. Come on..."

"Well, Princess Situ's temperament is innocent, which is also understandable. Master Situ doesn't need to care." After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the person kneeling on the ground. "Since you know the names of the people who went to Duobao Pavilion, it's easy to do. Look up and see if there are any people around you?"

Hearing Mo Junming's words, the clerk looked up tremblingly: "Ah, Mr. Zhao and Miss Mu, these two went back to the prince. At that time, Cao Min only knew Mr. Zhao, and he didn't know her surname Mu until he heard what Mr. Zhao called this lady.

Mo Junming nodded. In Shangjing, the Zhao family is one of the three major families. It's strange not to know him: "Is that painting left in the Duobao Pavilion?"

"Yes, Master Wang personally framed it at that time, and it took three days. As soon as he finished mounting, he immediately sent someone to send it over. Ah... Wasn't the painting not framed?"

Mo Junming looked at Situ Canglin: "Master Situ, this matter seems to be clear. This painting is indeed from Duobao Pavilion."

Situ Fenghua's face looked ugly: "I reported to the prince that Weichen was not disciplined, so that the industry under his name had such a thing happened, and Weichen will definitely find out the truth."

"Hmm." Mo Junming nodded.

"Your Highness, please forgive me, but there is one thing that Yanran really can't spit out. Mu Qingya, even if the birthday gift is not prepared by you, what's wrong with the breeze drunkenness on your sleeve? Not to mention that your clothes are also from Duobao Pavilion?" Situ Yanran glared at Mu Qingya, with a resolute light in her eyes.
