Wei Liu originally wanted to fight to the death, but his so-called integrity could not last long in the hands of the White Lotus Sect. The White Lotus Sect had various torture methods in endlessly, and the poison provided by Zhong Zi was enough to make Wei Liusheng.
It would be better to die. It didn't take long for him to cry for father and mother, and tell almost everything he knew.
It's just that he is just a little guy. At most he knows a few strongholds in Guangning County and who is on the line. He doesn't know who the real masters are.
Anyway, with Wei Liu here, Su Yueling can follow the clues and find more evidence. Coupled with the Guan family who takes the initiative to act as an internal response in the capital, if Su Yueling cannot uproot these people, it would be too underestimated the power she has managed over the years.
.
She has no shortage of masters in disguise, and she even lets people disguise themselves as a disfigured version of Wei Liu to continue dealing with those people, so as not to alert others.
When "Wei Liu" returned to the shop, the people in the shop were shocked when they saw him, "Why are there so many burn marks on your face?"
"Wei Liu" sighed and said: "The county magistrate young master I am currently serving is Lin Renping. His biological mother was driven to Zhuangzi to fend for herself by Lin Zhixian because she was too arrogant. Lin Renping was worried that his mother would not live well and be killed by Zhuangzi.
The manager was bullying her, so he secretly went over to see her. As his confidant, of course I had to go along. As a result, we were unlucky. The children nearby lit a fire to play and burned the straw. My face was severely burned in order to save Lin Renping.
The good thing is that Lin Renping trusts me now and obeys my words."
"The test questions that Lin Zhixian just prepared were leaked. Lin Zhixian has organized the people around him. It seems that he will release new test questions. If I get new test questions, I will give them to the master as soon as possible."
The shop owner hurriedly said: "You have sacrificed a lot this time. Don't worry, your hard work is visible to everyone. I will ask the master for credit, and the master will definitely find some healing plaster for you."
"Wei Liu" showed a moved expression, "I believe that the noble people above will not let down my loyalty. For them, I will go through fire and water, no matter what."
Because of the burns, his excited expression looked even more ferocious. No one else in the store dared to look at his face, for fear that they would have nightmares if they looked at him more.
The store owner coughed and his eyes drifted, "By the way, things are crucial now. If there is nothing important, don't come to the store, lest anyone notice the clues."
It would be better to appear less in front of them.
Although "Wei Liu" looked a little disappointed, he still agreed.
After he left, the people in the store wiped the sweat from their foreheads, but there was no need to look at that face.
Two days before New Year's Eve, they finally got the new test papers from Lin Zhi County from Wei Liu.
These people followed the instructions from their superiors and quietly sold the test paper.
When the county exam comes, as long as someone sues Magistrate Lin for leaking the test questions, it will be exciting.
…
Beijing.
On the first day of the New Year, Queen Han Luyan gave birth to her eldest son, and Rong Zhao was extremely happy. If the child hadn't been so young, he would have wanted to grant amnesty to the world.
In order to avoid causing hatred to his son, Rong Zhao endured it.
There are not many people in the capital that he can completely trust, and his cousin Yuan Suijun is one. Rong Zhao happily shared his joy with his cousin.
Yuan Suijun looked at Rong Zhao and said, "The emperor is a blessed man, with his wife and children by his side. Unlike me, who is alone."
The smile on Rong Zhao's face froze - his cousin wanted to leave him and find Sister Yueling again.
There have been a lot of political affairs in the past few years, and when Rong Zhao can't handle it, he will ask his cousin to help approve some of the papers. If his cousin wants to imitate his handwriting, he can imitate it so that outsiders can't see the slightest trace.
It was obvious that Yuan Suijun was tired of this kind of life.
If he leaves like this, Rong Zhao will spend at least two more hours a day on government affairs, and even the occasional horse racing activities will have to be cancelled.
Thinking of having to sleep later than a dog and wake up earlier than a chicken in the future, Rong Zhao felt bad.
He looked at Yuan Suijun with some depression, "Why don't you and Sister Yueling have more children?"
If it was their child, he would be relieved. With a niece as smart and smart as You Ning, Rong Zhaoba couldn't have more. Unfortunately, Yaozhou is indeed inseparable from You Ning now, and he can't call her back to the capital.
Yuan Suijun's body exuded a cold air, "The emperor can train the eldest son well and hand it over to him in the future." Why should they give birth to children? Why didn't he have more children?
The emperor's eldest son was born only a few days ago, and because he was still young, he had not yet been crowned a prince. However, as the eldest son of the empress and the emperor, his status could be said to be secure.
Rong Zhao sighed, "Then we have to wait another twenty years at the earliest."
After all, the country was handed over to him by his father, and he could not afford to ignore it.
Yuan Suijun said calmly: "Your Majesty, have you chosen the questions for your test paper?"
Rong Zhao nodded, "I chose it three days ago, and I'm keeping it."
A faint smile appeared on Yuan Suijun's face, "Kokoz is a big deal, so you should be cautious no matter how cautious you are. It would be better for me to deliver it to Princess Wei personally. This can also better avoid fraud."
Rong Zhao's eyelids twitched. His cousin was right in what he said. In the final analysis, it was not just for the sake of being honest with Sister Yueling.
His eyes fell on Yuan Suijun's hair. Yuan Suijun's hair has always been very good, like a black waterfall...wait, is that white hair?
Rong Zhao couldn't help but stare. He blinked and realized that his hair was indeed white. He was right.
Rong Zhao felt even more guilty. Before Sister Yueling left, his cousin didn't have a single gray hair. As a result, he worked so hard during this period that he even had gray hairs.
I heard that Sister Yue Ling was devoted to her cousin because of his handsome and unique face. If my cousin continues to grow old... Sister Yue Ling won't change her heart, right?
While Rong Zhao felt guilty, he also felt a little guilty.
He cleared his throat and said, "I understand. In two days, my cousin will follow the reward team back to Dingnanzhou, and the public will only say that my cousin has recovered from his illness."
At the end of this year, a batch of excellent gems and silks were presented as tribute. Rong Zhao had some sent to Yaozhou, while the other was kept for Sister Yueling.
The smile on Yuan Suijun's face suddenly became more real, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
After following the emperor and saying a few words about the recent situation, Yuan Suijun was in a happy mood as he would be able to see his wife in a while.
When he returned to the mansion, he ordered: "Take the jade potted plant in the warehouse to the Duke's Mansion and give it to the second young lady."
The second young lady is the daughter of Yuan Suifeng and Zhong Zi. Currently, only Yuan Suifeng does not know the truth. Thanks to the powder Zhong Zi prepared for him, when he applied it on his hair, it was like silver threads were born.
Escaped smoothly.
Well, I will have to ask Zhong Zi for some hair-raising plasters then.
