After Wen Ruyan left, she kept remembering Ling Ruo's words. At dawn, she sent Xiangzi, the boy next to her, to go to the executive's house to get a badge, and asked Mrs. Liu on the pretext of visiting her family. Little did she know that Mrs. Liu no longer knew.
Whereabouts, I asked the neighbors around and they all said that she had not come back since yesterday, but tomorrow
Mrs. Liu was sent home yesterday and did not return all night, which only meant that something bad had happened to her. Sure enough, Xiangzi deliberately went to the government office the next day to inquire and learned that someone had found a female corpse in the river, with her face scratched.
Although he was old, Wu Zuo concluded that his age should be around fifty.
Li moved very quickly, and this killing move was clearly intended to eliminate all future troubles. Wen Ruyan tightly clenched the chopsticks in her hand until the sound of one of the chopsticks breaking woke her up, and then she let go.
Suyun handed over a new pair of chopsticks and said sadly: "Girl, we are a step too late. Now that Mrs. Liu is dead, how can we clear Ling Fujin's grievances?"
What I thought was a glimmer of hope turned out to be a dead end. Wen Ruyan stroked her slightly aching forehead and looked at Xiangzi, "What did Doctor Xu say?"
"Physician Xu said that it is not impossible to change the pulse pattern, but this method was lost in the previous dynasty. He did not expect that anyone would do it at the time, so he did not think about it. Now that he has doubts, he will find a way to do it.
Check it out and see if you can find someone who knows how to do this."
Wen Ruyan smiled bitterly, although searching like this is no different from finding a needle in a haystack, but at this moment, she can only place her hope on it. Suyun said uncertainly at the side: "I remember that Qingrong next to Li Fujin seems to have some medical skills.
Could it have something to do with her?"
Wen Ruyan was stunned and said hurriedly: "Go and find out who Qingrong's biological parents are. If you have any clues, tell Dr. Xu immediately. Maybe we can help him."
"Hey." Xiangzi agreed and suddenly remembered something, "Physician Xu said that when the young master was brought out, he had seen that he was white, fat and strong, and did not look like someone who was born prematurely in July. At that time, he felt a little strange, but
My direct descendant Fujin said that it might be because of the good upbringing in the womb, so children born prematurely in July are stronger than those born prematurely in July. After hearing this, the prince did not ask any more questions."
It seems that Ling Ruo's guess is correct. It is most likely that the child is another child of the Ye family, who was stolen from the dragon and turned into a phoenix by Mrs. Liu. Speaking of which, the Ye family is pitiful. After all the hardships, she finally gave birth to a pair of twins.
, but he didn't know it, thinking that he only had one daughter, and she died right after birth.
What puzzled her was the fact that the first-born Fujin was a person who had given birth to a child. There was no reason why he couldn't tell the difference between seven months and full-term. No matter how well the fetus was raised, it wouldn't be enough to make up for the two or three months.
difference.
She was so lost in thought that she didn't notice Yinzhen coming in. It wasn't until Suyun pulled her sleeves that she realized it. She quickly knelt down to say hello. Yinzhen sat down in the carved wide-backed chair without saying a word.
Wen Ruyan glanced at his uncertain face and asked in a low voice: "Has the prince had dinner? If not, I will ask someone to make some side dishes that the prince likes to eat."
"No need, I have no appetite." Yinzhen waved his hand and stared at Wen Ruyan's soft face and said, "What did she say when you sent her back?"
Hearing him ask about Ling Ruo, Wen Ruyan flickered her eyelashes and said softly: "My sister said that she regretted the rudeness she committed due to impulsiveness before. I hope that Prince Nian will not be angry with her because of the previous relationship.
As for Li Fujin's mother and son...my sister said that she has indeed never done such a treasonous thing, and she hopes that the prince will investigate clearly."
That's all. Talking too much will only make Yinzhen think that she is talking for Ling Ruo, which is not good. Yinzhen won't be able to listen to whatever she wants to say in the future.
Yinzhen stared at her for a long time and slightly curved his thin lips, revealing a cold smile, "How could she be so stubborn and willing to say the word regret easily? If she really wanted to say that she said it in Hanyuan Residence, then
I'm afraid you said it on her behalf." If she was willing to give in, she wouldn't have let Nian do it in anger.
When Wen Ruyan heard the words, she quickly knelt down and said, "I made a mistake, please punish me." The fine silver tassels of the plum blossom hairpin hanging from her temples glowed softly under the flickering candlelight.
"If I want to punish you, I won't stand here. Get up." Yinzhen sighed, with a rare tangle between his brows, and asked with difficulty: "Ruyan, did I really blame her wrongly?"
Although when Ling Ruo mentioned Mei'er at that time, he was very angry that she compared him with Mei'er, but after calming down he had to admit that she was right. If it was Mei'er, even if everyone agreed, he would still choose to believe Mei'er.
However, when he was replaced by Ling Ruo, he questioned it. Of course, no one can replace Mei'er, but what about Ling Ruo? Yinzhen was very confused. For the first time, he found that he would be in a mess for a woman other than Mei'er.
.
Wen Ruyan felt a faint joy in her heart. No one knew better than her how difficult it was for Yinzhen, the prince of her elder brother, to ask this question. Such an emperor and nobleman had countless people fawning over him, so they
Never and unwilling to admit that he is wrong.
Sister, the prince may not treat you as well as Nalan Meier, but it will never be too different. He is not as ruthless and untrustworthy as you said.
Wen Ruyan carefully considered each word and said: "In that situation, I can't blame the prince for being suspicious of my sister. However, I watched my sister enter the house, and I really don't believe that she will be a woman with a heart of snakes and scorpions.
What's more, there are indeed some unexplainable aspects in this matter. Based on my humble opinion, the prince should handle this matter carefully; neither to make anyone feel wronged nor to indulge the villain in vain."
Yinzhen looked at the thick night outside without saying a word. However, after leaving the place, he called Zhou Yong and ordered him to secretly and carefully investigate the matter of Li's premature birth, especially the Wen woman.
No one leaks anything.
Li's son was named Hongshi on the day of the full moon. He was the third in the family and was also the only surviving descendant of Yinzhen. After knowing this, Concubine De specially gave her a longevity lock engraved with a picture of Pisces playing in the water from the palace.
She was able to grow up safely without any disasters, and she was given precious and nutritious food to Li for a long time so that she could have a good life and recuperate.
When this matter came to Ling Ruo's ears through Li Wei, she was practicing calligraphy in the house. In this month, she finally learned to use calligraphy to calm her mind and calm her mind. If not, she would have been unable to sleep all night.
.
"Didn't the prince consecrate Hongshi as the heir apparent?" she asked, without stopping the movements of her hands, writing carefully one stroke after another.
Li Wei got the news from the cook who came to deliver the food. He frowned and said, "I haven't heard of this. It seems that the prince has no intention of doing this yet."
Ling Ruo put down the pen, picked up the rice paper with both hands, gently blew the word "Jing" that was still ink on it, and said casually: "Ms. Li has worked hard to have a mother who can be the crown prince. Now the child has the title of crown prince."
But she hasn't decided yet, so she must be very anxious at the moment."
"That woman has such a vicious mind, she deserves not to be the heir apparent." Mo Yu scolded angrily from the sidelines. His master's end was all planned by Li. He became very angry when he mentioned her.
Immediately he said worriedly: "I wonder if there is any good news from Wenger."
"Ms. Li is cunning and scheming, and she acts extremely cautiously. I'm afraid it won't be easy for my sister to catch her flaws." Ling Ruoshang didn't know that Yinzhen and Zhou Yong had gone to investigate the matter.
The wind blew by, and the fallen flowers that had not yet been swept away in the courtyard circled and danced in the bright spring light, bringing with it a touch of splendor unique to spring. Ling Ruo put down the rice paper in her hand and walked to the window, reaching out to hold a piece of the approaching flower.
petals, but when he raised his eyes, he unexpectedly saw a person.
Yinzhen...Ling Ruo stared blankly at the figure walking slowly under the golden sunshine. He couldn't believe his eyes. Is it really him? He actually came here? He thought that this month of self-cultivation could make him happy.
My emotions are no longer that
It was so easy to get nervous and happy because of him, but when I faced this moment, I realized that it was impossible to resist the fate of being sad because of him and happy because of him in this life. Maybe I really owed him something in my previous life, so I had to do it in this life.
Pay it back in your lifetime.
She opened her mouth to speak, but found no sound, as if someone had taken away her voice, until the figure entangled in love and hate was close at hand.
"It's only been January, and you don't know me anymore?" he asked. Maybe the sunshine today was particularly warm, which made his eyes also filled with warmth.
"I..." As soon as he spoke, the handsome figure dispersed like foam and ceased to exist. Only the fallen flower that fell into the palm of his hand really existed. The eyes dimmed again. After all, it was just an illusion. How could Yinzhen
