Until night, Liang Jingyao didn't get any news from the capital. Although the withdrawal was good news, Liang Jingyao still felt uneasy.
Although Lin Xiaoyue wanted to comfort Liang Jingyao, her words could easily expose her, so she continued to help Chen Yunyun under the tent.
This unreliable mood lasted until the next morning, when Chen Hu came in with a soldier, and Liang Jingyao's taciturn state improved.
Liang Jingyao looked at the kneeling soldiers below and asked, "Chen Hu, was he the one who sneaked into the capital? Have you found any information?"
Chen Hu replied affirmatively: "It's Wang Tie. I followed him from a distance and saw him go in with my own eyes! Wang Tie, tell me the information you found quickly! Master is waiting in a hurry!"
Wang Tie nodded and said: "Back to the master, my subordinates found out that the newly married queen of Emperor Liang died yesterday, and the old woman who accompanied the new queen into the palace also disappeared. Because the new queen is a princess from the Yumu Kingdom, Emperor Liang
Now I am very afraid of the revenge of the Yumu Kingdom. Now Emperor Liang has issued a wanted manhunt for the old woman named Granny Shan, and the entire capital is strictly investigating whether there are people hiding in the Yumu Kingdom."
Liang Jingyao had a surprised expression on his face and asked in disbelief: "Dead? How many days have passed since the wedding? How did the new queen die?"
Wang Tie replied: "My subordinates heard that the new queen brought an extremely generous dowry on her wedding day. Emperor Liang wanted to keep the dowry for himself, but the new queen refused. Then Emperor Liang ruthlessly killed the new queen!"
Liang Jingyao felt that he had heard a big joke and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? Emperor Liang is the king of a country, and there are many rare treasures hidden in the palace. Moreover, Emperor Liang obtained many treasures by searching the Duke of Zhen.
, how could he care about the dowry of a mere princess from a small country? Isn’t this the most ridiculous thing in the world? "
Liang Jingyao poured out the cold water in the cup, poured a cup of hot water, put it in front of Lin Xiaoyue, and teased: "Are you the imperial concubine? To be honest, we have known each other for so long, and you have always been wearing a mask.
I’ve never seen your true face, why don’t you take off your mask and show me your face now?”
Lin Xiaoyue put down the water glass with a smile and said sheepishly: "It's a pity to pour it down. Anyway, I have a good stomach and can drink hot or cold."
Liang Jingyao stared at Lin Xiaoyue's face in confusion, wanting to reach out and touch what kind of appearance he had under the mask. However, due to etiquette, Liang Jingyao still suppressed his anxiety.
Liang Jingyao was extremely puzzled when he heard this. What kind of riddle is this Wang Tie doing? What kind of names and surnames are there? What kind of rumors are there?
"What does the theft of the palace have to do with the imperial concubine? Aren't all the exiled prisoners searched? Besides, how could a weak woman do so many things in the palace? It's nonsense! I think it was Emperor Liang who did all the bad things.
, so he suffered retribution! Not only did he not reflect, he even killed the queen to steal the dowry. The first one who would not let him go was the Yumu Kingdom!" Liang Jingyao really felt pity for the new queen, who married in a foreign country.
Before even having a few comfortable days in a foreign country, she was killed by her husband. This life was too bitter!
"Wang Tie, just say whatever you hear! Don't play riddles with me here!" Liang Jingyao scolded unhappily.
Lin Xiaoyue's tense heart finally relaxed after hearing what Liang Jingyao said! Fortunately, she had been disguised from the beginning when she met Liang Jingyao, and now she wears a mask like human skin every day, so Liang Jingyao will not suspect her.
, but when facing Liang Jingyao, I will inevitably feel ashamed. After all, so far, Liang Jingyao has really been good for himself!
After Wang Tie and Chen Hu left the tent, Lin Xiaoyue picked up the water glass in her hand and drank some water.
Lin Xiaoyue didn't dare to take off her mask. Once she took it off, she would have to put on makeup and disguise herself every day. That would be too troublesome!
"I'll pick it off later. Now that everyone is used to my face, if I suddenly change, everyone won't recognize me. It's better not to cause unnecessary trouble!" Lin Xiaoyue decisively rejected Liang Jingyao's request.
"Really? You wear a mask so often that I almost forgot about it. In fact, you don't need to wear it now. We are all our own people here anyway!" Liang Jingyao said expectantly.
Liang Jingyao felt very sorry, but what Lin Xiaoyue said was right. The Lin Xiaoyue's face seen by the Cheetah Army and Silver Sword Guards was the same face under this mask. If it were replaced by his real face, he would not be able to recognize it. What if?
Thinking that Lin Xiaoyue was a female spy who sneaked in and accidentally hurt her, in the end, not only did she feel distressed, but she also got scolded by the old drunk!
"Okay then! Take it off when you think it's time!" Liang Jingyao nodded and said.
Liang Jingyao now understood what Wang Tie meant. Because the imperial concubine exiled by Emperor Liang had the same name as his Yue'er, he did not dare to say it out at first.
Wang Tie nodded and told all the rumors he had heard, "Some people say that since Emperor Liang exiled a noble concubine named Lin Xiaoyue, thefts began in the palace, including gold, silver, jewelry, precious medicinal materials, and
All the food in the imperial kitchen has been stolen! Many people say that this imperial concubine is a scourge and should not have been exiled in the first place, but should have been beheaded!"
Wang Tie glanced at Lin Xiaoyue, who was sitting next to Liang Jingyao, and said hesitantly: "There are a lot of rumors in the capital. I don't know whether to talk about it or not? And there are many people with the same name and surname in the world. I feel that the master does not need to talk about it."
Take those rumors to heart."
Lin Xiaoyue felt her heart skip a beat. She didn't drink cold water but her whole body was shivering. She stammered: "Brother Liang, haven't you seen my true appearance? At that time, I accidentally entered
Valley, Cheng Feng quarrels with me every day, have you forgotten?"
Seeing this, Liang Jingyao stretched out his hand to hold down the water glass and said, "Why are you so dazed? The water is cold. Be careful if you drink it and your stomach will hurt!"
Lin Xiaoyue smiled easily and said: "Okay, no problem! Now that Emperor Liang is busy in the capital, can we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and then reap the benefits?"
Liang Jingyao raised his eyebrows and asked with interest: "Tell me what you think?"
This thought was actually Lin Xiaoyue's sudden inspiration. She thought about it and said: "If something like this happens, Yumu Kingdom will never tolerate it, and it has already taken action, otherwise Emperor Liang would not be in a hurry.
Let's recall Taishi Zhao back! This matter is big or small. If we mess up this matter, the two sides will definitely fight against each other! The people of the world will not be ashamed of Emperor Liang's behavior! Then, we will wait for them to fight until both sides are injured.
If you take action when the time comes, you can kill two birds with one stone and reap the benefits of the fishermen, right?"
Liang Jingyao shook his head and said: "Yue'er is very smart, but the king of Yumu Kingdom has returned to the country, right? And when Yumu Kingdom came to make peace, Emperor Liang would not allow them to bring many people, so even if the king is still there
Dongsui Kingdom, but without enough men and horses, it is impossible to fight an army."
