I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl! - Chapter 293
Chapter 293 Portrait
Prisoners sentenced to imprisonment are usually sent to a certain place to supervise labor. Some criminals are sent to quarries, some are sent to dig canals, and some are sent to build city walls, etc.
Liu Guangrun was originally scheduled to be sent to other provinces to dig river channels.
A **** from the Superintendent of Ceremonies came to the government office to deliver a message, and soon Liu Guangrun was sent to a quarry on the outskirts of Beijing to serve his sentence.
If people are close, the Liu family can take care of them nearby.
There are many spies in every house in the capital, and even the slightest disturbance may not be covered up. The place where the Liu family’s eldest son was serving his sentence was changed, and it didn’t take more than half a day for someone to receive the news.
Song Jin, who was at home, also knew.
What shocked her even more was another piece of news. After meeting with Dr. Liu, Mr. Yang Ge did not leave, but went to see someone else.
The spies ventured close to the tea shop and lurked on the roof of a building. After Mr. Yang Ge left, about a quarter of an hour later, two people walked out of the side room. A man in a black robe wearing a mask, followed by a feather fan. Turbaned scribe.
At first glance, the two of them were not ordinary people.
Song Jin tightened her grip on Mi Xin’s hand.
This person is most likely the mastermind she is looking for.
“Wearing a mask…can’t you see the light?”
Song Jin murmured to himself.
Qin Chi went to the Yamen during the day. Old Man Hong didn’t know how well he investigated, so she immediately went out in disguise.
The carriage was just about to approach Jifang Pharmacy.
Qin Qi suddenly reminded, “My boss, there is someone watching outside the shop.”
“Let the carriage move on.”
Song Jin responded quickly.
Qin Qi drove forward and passed the side door of the drug store. The drug store is temporarily closed for business due to the Liu family incident. Song Jin originally wanted to find Song Jitao. Looking at this situation, he was being targeted.
Finally the carriage stopped in front of the back door of a wooden shop.
Song Jin got out of the car and ducked into the wooden shop. In order to hide from others, Qin Qi continued to move forward with the carriage and went out from the alley at the other end.
Song Jin just entered the backyard of the wooden shop.
Then a low shout was heard.
“Who is it?!”
When the other party saw the visitor, he immediately said respectfully: “It’s my boss here. I’m sorry, I didn’t see clearly just now.”
“No problem.”
Song Jin waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, “Is the shopkeeper in the shop?”
“Yes, I’m here to report it.”
After the man finished speaking, he hurriedly looked for someone. A moment later, a young man in his early twenties appeared.
He came to Song Jin, saluted respectfully and said, “My subordinate Wei Yuan has met my employer.”
Wei Yuan came to Jingshun from Huizhou Prefecture, and his family was originally a medicine farmer in the Song family. One of the people Xing Lun selected from among the medicine farmers back then has been trained for so many years and is now able to take charge of his own business.
“No need to be polite.”
Song Jin asked again: “Do you know how it is at the drug store?”
“Shopkeeper Song just sent a message saying that he is suspected of being watched. My subordinates are about to tell you about this, so you came here first.” Wei Yuan immediately thought that this place is not far from the medicine shop, and his heart skipped a beat. Surprised, “My boss has been to the drug store, right?”
“Ah Qi noticed something unusual, so we didn’t go in.” Song Jin followed Wei Yuan into a living room and continued, “You should pay more attention to the Song family in Wanping. I’m worried that the Liu family will take action against his family.”
“Don’t worry, boss, my subordinates heard that they visited the eldest princess’s residence not long ago.”
Song Jin was surprised by the news about Wei Yuan.
Song Huaiwang was indeed capable. She just asked Xing Lun to give him a batch of overseas products, and he used this to open up connections.
After chatting for a few words.
Song Jin explained the purpose of coming here, which was to meet the spies who had seen the masked man and the scribe.
Wei Yuan quickly called people over.
The person who came was a teenage girl, wearing smart clothes, with healthy wheat-colored skin. She looked at Song Jin with clear eyes, “My subordinate Mu Ting has met my boss. I heard that you have something to do with me?” “
“Yes, I have something to ask you.” Song Jin chatted for a few more words.
It was learned that Mu Ting had no father or mother and was once a wandering orphan. She was taken in by Xing Lun a few years ago.
“I asked you to come over because I wanted you to tell me what those two people looked like, so I could try to draw them.” Song Jin asked Wei Yuan to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Mu Ting regretted: “It’s a pity that I was far away at the time and couldn’t see their faces clearly. I only knew that they were not young.”
“It doesn’t matter, it’s okay to draw with charm.”
Song Jin took out a blank piece of paper and Ping Fu
On the table, hold the pen and tap the ink with the tip of the pen.
Asked carefully.
Song Jin drew the masked man and the scribe according to Mu Ting’s description. There was no detailed appearance, just a general appearance. The focus was on painting the charm and temperament of each other.
I drew one picture after another.
Change again and again.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Mu Ting has a good memory.
Describe the first impression of meeting the two people, and then make modifications based on Song Jin’s drawing.
Revised all afternoon.
When dusk came, Mu Ting finally said they were very similar.
“Evil mask?”
Song Jin remembered that he had appeared in Huizhou Mansion earlier, “This scribe is holding a feather fan?”
The fan in the hands of literati is an elegant thing.
Nowadays, when scholars go out to hold a fan, most of them are folding fans. Generally speaking, scribes who hold feather fans are almost all elderly.
There was a double figure painting left behind. This painting of Mu Ting felt the most like to her. The remaining paintings were all thrown into the brazier and burned by Song Jin.
“This is a secret and cannot be leaked.” Song Jin specially added this sentence.
Wei Yuan and Mu Ting responded cautiously.
Song Jin took the portrait and left in a hurry. It was getting dark when he returned to Cuihua Hutong.
As soon as he stepped into the dormitory, he saw Qin Chi.
Qin Chi was sitting at the table, touching a blue and white porcelain tea bowl with his fingers. He was in a trance, until he heard someone pushing the door and entering. Then he came back to his senses, stood up and asked in a deep voice: “Madam, you are home late, is it useful to be late?” meal?”
“No, let’s go to the kitchen and have a look.”
Song Jin went out in a hurry and went home in a hurry. Not to mention dinner, I also forgot to eat lunch, so when Qin Chi mentioned it, I realized that I was very hungry.
Qin Chi said: “The kitchen has left food for Madam and Qin Qi.”
Song Jin nodded.
Qin Chi poured her a cup of tea first.
Song Jin handed the portrait he brought back to Qin Chi, picked up the fruit on the fruit plate on the table and ate it.
Qin Chi gently opened the portrait.
After watching quietly for a while, he asked: “Madam, who are they?”
“After Mr. Yang Ge made an appointment with Dr. Liu, he went to meet these two people again.” Song Jin had many guesses about the identity of the two people.
In the end, it was just speculation and has never been confirmed.
Qin Chi rolled up the portrait and put it in his sleeve, “The person in the painting must be much older than us. I will show it to Uncle Hong. He has seen all the dignitaries in the capital.”
“Go ahead, then. I’ll go to the kitchen and have a look.” Song Jin finally realized that it was inconvenient not to have a maid around, otherwise she wouldn’t have to go to the kitchen now that she was tired, but would directly ask the maid to go to the kitchen to serve the meal.
After Qin Chi went out.
Song Jin changed out of his men’s clothes.
As soon as he stepped out of the threshold and took a few steps, he saw Qin Qi walking quickly with a food box in his hand.
After asking, I learned that it was Qin Chi who ordered it.
