Seeing that Shi Qingxue lowered her head and pondered hard, Mo Junyang didn’t baffle her but gave her an explanation in detail directly. “Princess Royal doesn’t worry about money or fame. In this world, few things can be used to lure her except what she cares about…”
“I see!” Shi Qingxue’s eyes lit up.
She answered quickly, “It’s Shi Juncai.”
Mo Junyang showed a faint smile.
Qingxue was more confident and continued, “Perhaps Grandma can get whatever she wants, but Shi Juncai has a lot of things that he wants yet can’t get.
“With Shi Juncai, it is much easier to combine threats with inducements.”
Moreover, the criminal had Shi Lei’s skeleton as the bargaining chip. Wouldn’t the negotiation be to the satisfaction of both parties?
It just made Shi Lei who had passed away long ago suffer from injustice. He made a lot of outstanding military exploits for the country and his family when he was alive, yet he was taken as a bargaining chip and couldn’t rest in peace after death.
At this thought, Shi Qingxue was furious, and she instantly stopped feeling sad for Mo Shujun.
She was so angry that she didn’t notice that Mo Junyang’s smile faded after he heard her analysis.
He didn’t interrupt her and just suggested after she finished her words, “Forget it first. Let’s go to the living room to have a look. Maybe the visitor who would give us something can answer our questions.”
“Hmm?” Shi Qingxue looked at Mo Junyang in doubt.
She asked, “Since somebody reported that Grandpa’s skeleton was found, I got surprised…The servant came to send a message from the Capital Bureau is your subordinate, right?”
Mo Junyang didn’t want to hide it from Qingxue and nodded honestly. “I couldn’t confirm that Elder Duke Shi’s skeleton was in her hands, so I figured out a way to cast a wide net and then made the criminal confess without torture and lead us to find the skeleton.”
Shi Qingxue didn’t get angry after hearing that but nodded knowingly. Then she asked, “Just now…”
“Qingxue, although I am capable indeed, I can’t know everything. It has nothing to do with me this time.” Mo Junyang raised his hands and expressed that he was innocent.
Shi Qingxue looked Mo Junyang up and down doubtfully for quite a while. Then she asked with uncertainty, “Really?”
Mo Junyang certainly nodded repeatedly. “In fact, the person has come to this mansion. If you really want to know the purpose of the visit, just go to the living room, okay?”
“Okay!”
Shi Qingxue and Mo Junyang came to the living room of the mansion, and it was full of people standing inside.
They hid behind the crowd secretly and listened to them.
Shi Junhe asked about the identity of the person who came to give something. “Who are you? What do you want to give to the ‘descendant’?”
A middle-aged man who was a little fat with an average height was standing in the middle. He looked serious and cautious. After confirming Shi Junhe’s identity, he stated unhurriedly, “My Lord, I am the manager of The You’s Pawnshop. Today my boss gave me something and told me to hand it to you…”
While speaking, he took out something covered with several layers of a red cloth from his pocket. It was thick with almost the size of a palm. Nobody could see what was inside.
Seeing that, Shi Junhe hurriedly reached out his hand to receive it, but unexpectedly, the man avoided his hand and refused to give it to him.
The manager of The You’s Pawnshop continued, “…Your daughter.”
All people were speechless.
It was allowed to take a break while speaking, yet he took such a long break.
Because of the middle-aged man’s weird action, all people started to guess what it was at the same time. Why couldn’t it be given to Shi Junhe but to his daughter?
Was the boss of The You’s Pawnshop really Shi Lei’s old friend? What was their relationship? Why did he show up suddenly to give something to Shi Lei’s descendant in so many years after his death?
All people’s brains were filled with the questions, like a snowball which became bigger and bigger after rolling.
There was no answer, which made them have a headache.
The manager didn’t give them a chance to ponder over. He turned to the young generation standing behind Shi Junhe and asked politely, “Who is Duke’s daughter?”
Shi Baoning was pushed by Wenren Chi and then reacted, answering subconsciously, “I am.”
The manager looked Shi Baoning up and down at first and then confirmed roughly. Then he nodded slightly and seemed to accept her words.
However, he still demanded cautiously, “My Lady, can you show your personal seal so that I can confirm your identity?”
He was afraid that Shi Baoning would get angry, so he added respectfully at once, “It’s not that I intentionally make things difficult for you, but it’s something significant. I was entrusted by my boss and don’t dare to be careless. Please forgive me, My Lady.”
Shi Baoning hurriedly said that it didn’t matter. When she took out her personal seal from her pocket and gave it to him, she couldn’t help but ask, “Even if I give my personal seal to you, how can you confirm that I am the person you are looking for?”
Even if there was Shi Baoning’s name on the personal seal, it was easy to forge a seal. Anybody could randomly make a seal with Shi Baoning’s name on it. If he had never seen it, he would be cheated easily, right?
The manager smiled at Shi Baoning to make her rest assured. “My Lady, please don’t worry. Elder Duke Shi had predicted it, so when he entrusted it to me, he copied your personal seal for me…” as a reference.
While speaking, he took out a piece of yellowish white paper and then opened it, comparing the mark on the paper with Shi Baoning’s personal seal.
Before he finished his words, he stopped his hand suddenly at the sight of something and held back what he was going to say.
“My Lady, you are not…” The manager looked baffled, as if there was something that he could hardly speak out, and he stuttered.
When the manager took out the paper to compare, Shi Baoning expected that they wouldn’t be matched. Seeing his expression, she just explained calmly, “Grandma and Father made the personal seal for me after I came of age, and Grandpa had passed away then, so…”
So when this manager suddenly took out a mark to compare, they couldn’t be the same.
However, after hearing her words, the manager looked more embarrassed and expressed after stuttering for a long while, “But my boss said that only if the personal seal is the same as the mark in my hands, can I…”
He probably feared that he would offend Shi Baoning, so he added in a lower and lower voice at last, yet he still bit the bullet and continued to ask, “My Lady, are you really Elder Duke Shi’s granddaughter?”
Perhaps because he was afraid that he would irritate Shi Baoning, he lowered his head and acted humbly after asking this question quickly.
Fortunately, Shi Baoning was always gentle and just frowned with displeasure after being offended. She still nodded and answered, “Of course, all people present can prove it.”
The manager wouldn’t be so stupid as to ask the onlookers. He just didn’t give up and asked, “Are you Duke Shi’s daughter?”
Shi Baoning was unable to reply.
Even Shi Junhe couldn’t bear to see that this time. He responded for her, “She is really my daughter. Sir, is there something wrong?”
The manager furrowed his brows tightly and blurted out, “But isn’t your daughter named Shi Qingxue?”
All people in the Shi family were speechless.
Their expressions changed, and Shi Baoning even blushed in embarrassment.
Shi Junhe goggled and didn’t know how to answer this manager’s question.
Did this middle-aged man come to sow discord among the members of the Shi family?
He knew that Shi Junhe had two daughters but still said that only Shi Qingxue was his daughter. He seemed to deny Shi Baoning’s existence.
Even though the middle-aged man was just a manager of a pawnshop, his words were hurtful.
Shi Baoning was attentive, sensitive and suspicious. If it was Shi Qingxue who was treated like this, Shi Junhe wouldn’t be so restless that he didn’t even dare to glance at Shi Baoning.
The manager still didn’t know he had said something wrong but talked endlessly. “My boss told me that Elder Duke Shi’s granddaughter is named Shi Qingxue, and there is her personal seal’s mark on this paper. The seal was made by the elder duke in person, and it couldn’t have been forged. Isn’t Lady Qingxue your daughter?”
Shi Junhe couldn’t speak a word. Was it late to kill this manager?
He stayed silent for a long time and then tried his best to answer calmly, “I have two legitimate daughters, and Qingxue is one of them. You…”
Hearing that Shi Qingxue was one of them indeed, the manager looked relieved and joyful, stating in a hurry, “Lady Qingxue, please take out your personal seal and show it to me.”
He was worried that he would mess it up and be cursed by his boss after going back, so he forgot that the one he faced was Duke Shi. He cut in hurriedly and meanwhile turned to the people behind Shi Junhe and Baoning.
Soon, his eyes were fixed on Shi Qingxue and then lit up at once. He asked happily in surprise, “Are you Lady Qingxue?”
Shi Qingxue still felt awkward. When this manager called her name under the watchful eyes of all people suddenly, she was shy and angry, so she planned to deny it.
The manager seemed to notice her attitude and instantly added, “I have a relic of Elder Duke Shi. He gave it to my boss when he was alive and asked him to give it to you at the right time.”
Hearing that it was Shi Lei’s relic, Shi Qingxue couldn’t bear to randomly tell him to go away.
Although she thought that this man irritated Shi Baoning and had gone too far as he wasn’t a good talker, her desire to know what Shi Lei had left to her gained the upper hand.
She still nodded and took out her personal seal, giving it to the manager. “Just check it by yourself if you want to.”
Because the manager had offended her sister, Shi Qingxue was unfriendly although she knew that she shouldn’t be like this.
At the same time, she reminded seriously, “Grandpa did make the personal seal for me, but so many years has passed, and I have made it fall for many times as I was naughty when I was young. If it was ruined and there is something wrong, don’t find fault with me.”
She said that like a rascal, while the manager didn’t get mad after hearing that. Instead, he smiled with relief.
When all people were nervously waiting for him to reveal the result, his smile looked weird.
Especially when he glanced at Shi Qingxue at last, it seemed that there was…affection in his eyes?
