Ling Yiqu was not surprised when he was summoned into the imperial study, but he was a little surprised when he saw that he was the only one summoned.
Lin Chong did not hide anything from him: "Master Feng's integrity is obvious to all. I don't have any grudges against him. I just want to talk to you this time to express my thoughts and then listen to your opinions."
As a minister, Feng Ying has all the qualities he should have. But after all, he is old, and some of his ideas are inevitably rather old-fashioned.
Lin Chong only called Ling Yiqu and did not summon Feng Ying. A large part of the reason was that he wanted to hear Ling Yiqu's opinion on this matter.
In fact, if the murderer is really a Jianghu knight, then this matter will be much more difficult to handle. Ling Yiqu has obviously considered this situation. He himself also felt that it was most likely the crime of a Jianghu knight, and he put his suspicion aside
The target is more on women.
"Oh? Female? Why do you say that?" Lin Chong asked.
"Because the deceased were all mature men who had been officials in the court for a long time. If the other party looked like a knight with strong martial arts skills, they would not be so wary, let alone let the servants wait outside."
"So you think it's because the murderer was a woman that they let down their guard and were alone with her." Lin Chong suddenly realized.
Ling Yiqu nodded: "I'm afraid it's not just a woman, but also a beautiful woman. This woman doesn't look threatening at all, and she probably has a very deceptive identity. Only then can they quickly let down their guard."
"Then the question is, what kind of woman can they feel comfortable being alone with without seeming to be a threat?" Lin Chong asked.
"This issue is also something I am considering. Once I think about it clearly, maybe the facts of the case will come to light." Ling Yiqu answered respectfully.
Lin Chong nodded: "What Aiqing said makes sense. You can continue to search for evidence. I will send people from the East and West Factory to pay attention to the movements of the ministers. If there is anything, I will contact you immediately."
Ling Yiqu knelt down and said, "The Holy One is wise."
As the case made some progress, Lin Chong's mood also improved a little. As soon as he felt better, he wanted to eat.
This time I didn’t bother Jin Yiwei and wandered around to look for it myself.
In the evening, Wang Chengen didn't see the emperor anywhere. He was shocked. Could it be that there was some accident? Could it be that he finally decided to escape and did it so quickly without any warning? That's not right, this kid has something wrong with him.
The poison hasn't been cured yet, so he probably wouldn't be stupid enough to run out on his own. If he came out of the palace just for fun, he probably wouldn't choose this time.
Then there was only one possibility left. Wang Chengen called the Jin Yiwei and questioned them about the emperor's whereabouts.
As a result, the Jin Yiwei were also very frightened. They said they had followed His Majesty all the way to the imperial kitchen and had disappeared before they could see His Majesty clearly.
At first they thought that His Majesty the Emperor was a glutton and found something he liked in the imperial dining room, but they didn't come out for a long time. When they went to the imperial dining room and asked, no one had seen the Long Live Lord at all, and the Jinyiwei panicked. If they were paired with each other, everyone would
They knew almost everything. No one saw where the emperor went.
Wang Chengen's forehead twitched, and an ominous premonition suddenly filled his heart. He tried his best to suppress those bad thoughts and make himself look calmer.
When something like this happened, the first thing he thought of was Miss Rong. But he had no idea that Miss Rong had been in the palace all along. He didn't know that this afternoon Long Live Lord had just asked her about the complex composition of the world.
Wang Chengen tried his best to stay rational and calm. The less people knew about this matter, the better, so he couldn't find anyone else to discuss it. He could only send the Jin Yiwei to search around, and at the same time secretly prayed that the emperor was just having fun and forgot the time.
He will be back soon on his own.
Because, not only did he have to worry about the emperor's safety at the moment, he also had another equally important issue.
When Lin Chong woke up in a daze, he could feel that he was on a carriage. He could not distinguish the direction due to the bumpy ride, and his eyes were always covered. He wanted to try to move his hands and feet, but it was completely in vain.
.His hands and feet were tied tightly and he couldn't move at all.
He began to think in his mind, who exactly did he meet? How many people were they? What was the purpose of these people? Was it to rob money and sex? Not to rob lives...
He felt bitter in his heart, was he going to die for the weird reason of being in a good mood and wanting to find something to eat? These damn Jin Yiwei usually followed them closely when they went out, for fear that he would escape while they were not paying attention.
It's good now, something really happened, no one can be seen... Come on, please help me, I don't want to die yet!
It's a pity that his current situation is such that heaven and earth are not responding to each other, and earth and earth are not functioning properly. No one knows where he was taken, including himself.
Besides, he was tied like a rice dumpling, so it was impossible to leave any mark. The carriage seemed to have been traveling for a long time, but it still had no intention of stopping. Lin Chong deduced that he had been taken out of the city?
According to his understanding of Manager Wang, he should have realized that he was no longer there at this time. What would he think? Would he think that he had escaped? Will he find a way to save himself or find a replacement?
Lin Chong felt that as a fake emperor, he was quite competent these days. He should not be given up so soon. Wang Chengen was probably already thinking of ways to find him at this time, but after all, his disappearance should not be exposed too much.
People know that the manpower available in the palace should be limited, so how long will it take him to find clues about himself? If he was really taken out of the city, wouldn't it be even harder to find him?
As Lin Chong thought about it, he felt that he seemed to have reached a dead end. His mood was complicated. He didn't know if these heroes had the good habit of giving a full meal before killing people... He didn't want to starve to death.
What a ghost!
Ahhh! This damn time travel, this damn Ming Dynasty... Lin Chong tossed over and over again, cursing everything he could think of. After cursing, he felt tired.
The carriage finally stopped, and Lin Chong felt someone pulling him out of the carriage, but the cloth covering his eyes was not removed, so he could not tell whether he was taken outside the city.
After opening his eyes, Lin Chong couldn't adapt to the light in front of him for a while. He barely adapted for a while before slowly opening his eyes. He saw several burly men with stern faces surrounding him. At first glance, they were not characters to be trifled with.
But they remained silent and did not say a word to Lin Chong. Naturally, they were not the masterminds behind the scenes. They were just a group of thugs at best.
