Lin Chong had been locked in this dark room for an unknown number of days. There were no windows and no light came in, so he couldn't tell the difference between day and night. The only criterion he could use to judge whether another day had passed was Yueniang.
When will you come to see him?
Ever since he tried to pull Yueniang back that day, Yueniang now sees that he has always closed her mouth tightly and not said a word, for fear that Lin Chong will try to get something out of her. She refuses to reveal any information like this.
Lin Chong really had no way to tell who locked him up here.
This forced him to start thinking about whether he should leave here. But if he didn't understand the other party's plans and intentions, even if he left here, he would only fall into another trap.
The news of the Emperor's disappearance has spread throughout the streets and alleys, and many people are discussing in low voices where His Majesty the Emperor has gone after dinner.
It is very dangerous to disappear at this time. Because many ministers soon proposed that the court must choose a person in charge. It is not surprising that some people put forward this statement, both Lin Chong and Wang Chengen were there
Wait, wait and see who will bring this up first.
But what surprised them was that the first person to bring up this matter was Zhou Ze. Yes, it was the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, Zhou Ze.
Even Huang Xin was very surprised. He had not even mentioned this matter to himself.
He didn't mention it to anyone, but he suddenly said it one day in court. He said it in a serious and righteous way.
When Lin Chong learned about this, he was dumbfounded. At this time, he had not been rescued from Zuixiang Tower, but he came out not long after. The people who rescued him were not Wang Chengen and Jin Yiwei, but the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
It is said that after several days of analysis, Feng Ying and Ling Yiqu finally turned their target back to Zuixiang Tower. This time they led people to search carefully, without relaxing their vigilance in every inch of the place, and finally found it in an inconspicuous corner.
After finding the mechanism leading to the darkroom, Lin Chong followed them back.
After sending Lin Chong back to the palace, he found that Yueniang and the group of people from Zuixiang Tower had disappeared, leaving a group of girls and handymen who knew nothing. The Ministry of Punishment could not do anything to them. After being detained for a while, they saw
I couldn't ask anything, so I just put them back.
Although the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple had rescued Lin Chong, Lin Chong still did not go to court for several days. Yueniang gave him something to suppress the poison, but she did not know what was mixed with it. Now he is better, and the old poison is not there
A new poison has been added to the solution.
But now the two poisons are acting as a subtle check and balance in his body, so he is fine. I don't know if this is a blessing in disguise. The Royal Hospital is busy trying to figure out how to study Long Live Master's physical condition, and Lin Chong is not at all worried about it.
Don't worry about this.
He now wants to know what happened to Comrade Zhou Ze. A few days ago, he was so grateful for his kindness and vowed to work hard to serve the motherland. How come he turned into a face suspected of being a traitor in the blink of an eye?
Because of the appearance of Miss Rong, the plan of this opponent who is still unknown has been shattered, and we don't know what he is going to do next.
According to the report Wang Chengen gave him, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple suspected that some of the ministers in the DPRK might have been bribed. Even if they haven't been bribed yet, there are still many people who are under threat and intimidation. However, there is no way to get the exact list now.
Looking at Zhou Ze's current performance, Zhou Ze is so abnormal that it is impossible not to doubt him. Lin Chong doesn't think that he will be bribed by money, fame and fortune, so he should be among the ones who are threatened and intimidated.
Lin Chong suddenly felt that this problem was difficult to solve. Whether it was induced or intimidated, there was no way to prevent it. Even if it was solved this time, the same thing would happen next time. As long as people have weaknesses, as long as they have
Weaknesses will be exploited, which seems to be a dead end.
Lin Chong appeared in the morning as usual, and no one finally said anything about finding a person to take charge of the overall situation.
Some officials who reacted particularly violently have already been recorded, and people from the East-West Factory are closely monitoring their movements.
There is no news at all about the women who disappeared after the murder. They seemed to have sunk under the water and hidden themselves after completing their previous goal.
These murder cases have not been solved to this day because the real murderer cannot be determined, and the suspect has already fled and his whereabouts are unknown.
Lin Chong guessed that the man behind the scenes was probably considering the current situation to determine the next step. He wanted to have a good talk with Zhou Ze, but he was also worried that alerting the enemy would harm him, which made him a little hesitant. Because of the punishment department
Through joint efforts with Dali Temple, the incident of the minister being killed inexplicably did not happen again. As for the unknown poison in Lin Chong's body, Miss Rong quietly came to show him once. She seemed to have some clues and hurriedly
's gone.
Lin Chong felt a little hope again. If the poison could be traced back to the martial arts sect involved, it would be an important clue. Maybe he could follow this clue to find out the identity of the person behind the scenes.
But after she left for a long time, Lin Chong never saw her again. I wonder if the medicine developed by the imperial doctors had an effect. Lin Chong did not have any symptoms after that.
It is worth mentioning that it didn’t take long for Yueniang to find her. Jin Yiwei followed a few girls from Zuixianglou to find them. They fled in a hurry, and they must not have much silver with them. Such a large number of people is not good in the first place.
Hiding, not to mention that living people don’t just need to hide, they also need to eat and drink.
She had to find a way to get money. With how well she had taken care of her servants, it was not difficult for a few people to give her money.
These people didn't have such high martial arts skills, and they didn't notice anyone following them. They directly led the Jin Yiwei all the way to where Yueniang and the others were hiding. Even if they were caught, Yueniang still looked upright and upright, what?
She didn't even want to explain. She felt from the bottom of her heart that everything she did was right, and she was worthy of her heart and the world. No one could change her mind. Lin Chong had already tried.
She readily confessed her crime of killing those corrupt officials. The major case in the capital that had been going on for so long was finally solved, and Lin Chong could give an explanation to the veterans in the court.
But he felt very heavy at the moment. Even if Yueniang was convicted, she was just an innocent pawn. What was the difference between what he was doing now and the people he despised when reading novels? The mastermind behind the scenes might now be
Hiding somewhere, secretly laughing at one's own stupidity and incompetence.
