Chapter 731 Obviously Heavier than the First Child

Lin Sheng was a little confused now. When things got to this point, he had already prepared for the worst, but someone suddenly told him that things were not what he had guessed, but that he had fallen into a trap.

As a veteran official, Lin Sheng is not stupid, otherwise he would not have been able to be his Jing Zhaoyin for so many years in Kyoto where there are many powerful people.

But the matter involved the emperor and his own life, so he was naturally cautious.

But now, Liu Wei's words made him hesitate again. After all, if there was any other way, no one would want to ruin a good official career.

After hesitating again and again, Lin Sheng still asked Liu Wei anxiously: "In Master Liu's opinion, what should Lin do?"

"Master Lin, you haven't met the emperor yet?" Liu Wei asked.

Lin Sheng nodded: "I have been waiting for a whole day, but there has been no news. I sent out a lot of silver ingots, but no one responded."

Liu Wei said: "My lord, have you ever thought that Tongzhen's words never reached the emperor's ears?"

Lin Sheng was stunned and asked: "Master Liu, are you saying that someone is causing trouble in the middle?"

"That's not surprising." Liu Wei said.

Lin Sheng had to think of Xiang Yi. This Eunuch Xiang had been with the concubine for many years. Although he was not in the palace all the year round, he still had his own power. However, the eunuchs he sent there were all small eunuchs. The small eunuchs could easily be used by the big eunuchs. Not surprising, could it be that something really went wrong?

Lin Sheng thought this and was not sure. He just looked at Liu Wei and waited for him to continue.

Liu Wei also said: "If you want to know what happened, you might as well ask another person."

"Another person?" Lin Sheng asked.

"Seventh Prince."

Lin Sheng frowned, as if thinking about it, and then said: "Seventh Prince, will you be willing to get involved in this matter? Lin is not close to the Seventh Prince, and this matter is very involved, so it is difficult to escape. The Seventh Prince he……"

"Master Lin, just go and ask."

Lin Sheng fell silent, hesitated again and again, and finally decided to give it a try.

After Liu Wei said this, he didn't stay long. He originally came to see Lin Sheng, but because he didn't know what happened in the palace, and his attitude changed drastically after leaving the palace, he went to investigate. Now that he knows the situation, he also explained the solution. , she naturally does not need to stay any longer.

When leaving, Lin Sheng personally escorted Liu Wei to the gate with an attentive attitude and apologized several times, but Liu Wei did not pursue any further questions. After saying goodbye, he left alone.

After taking two steps, a person followed Liu Wei. Without looking back, Liu Wei knew it was Rong Leng.

Neither of them spoke. They walked one behind the other, walking steadily, but they were not conspicuous at all in the crowded street.

Rong Leng accompanied Liu Wei all the way from Lin Mansion back to the Seventh Prince's Mansion. After Liu Wei entered the gate of the Seventh Prince's Mansion, Rong Leng turned around and left.

But when Liu Wei returned to the room, she saw that Rong Leng had already entered the room first and had lit all the candles.

Although they have taken on the identity of Ouchi guards, if the two of them are too close and go out and go in together, they still seem too weird and don't want to attract anyone's attention. When they are outside, they have a tacit understanding to stay apart and only wait until they enter. After entering the palace, it should be how it should be.

Liu Wei's courtyard was specially separated by Rong Su's orders. The people who came here in the past were at most the palace stewards.

The maids and servants nearby did not dare to come here, and even the people serving them were only young girls and young girls. Therefore, Liu Wei and Rong Leng could have more freedom in this courtyard.

After entering the house, Liu Wei changed out of her clothes and said, "The Chinese New Year is almost here, but there is no sense of festival at all in Kyoto. How did you celebrate the New Year in the past?"

Rong Leng took off his sword, pulled it out of its scabbard, wiped the sword body, and said: "Sacrifice to heaven, have a big banquet, and watch the New Year."

Liu Wei sat across from Rong Leng and asked again: "How do you want to spend this year?"

Rong Leng raised his eyes, looked at her, and said, "What do you think?"

Liu Wei held her chin and thought for a while, then asked, "Would it be good to go to Changyang Palace?"

Rong Leng was stunned.

Liu Wei said: "Concubine Min treats you like her own child. It's not too much to spend this New Year with her. However, we can't let her live this depressing year with her injustice in vain. I plan to settle the case before the New Year. Do you think Woolen cloth?"

Rong Leng felt that Liu Wei's words were a bit strange. What do you mean by plan? The case is getting bigger and bigger, and New Year's Eve is just around the corner. Do you want to solve the case before the New Year? How dare she say such a thing?

How can it be done in just a few days?

still……

Rong Leng raised his eyes and asked, "What did you find?"

Liu Wei laughed: "Clever!"

Rong Leng looked at her seriously.

Liu Wei said: "Xiang Yi went to Lin Sheng and deceived Lin Sheng with some words. Lin Sheng almost believed him. If I hadn't found him, Lin Sheng would have left the city tonight."

Rong Leng also knew about this. He had been guarding Liu Wei since he came back from the restaurant today. He naturally knew Liu Wei's whereabouts.

Rong Leng also knew about Lin Sheng, but what did this have to do with solving the case?

Liu Wei saw that Rong Leng didn't understand, so he said: "I will ask Lin Sheng to go to Rong Su tomorrow and ask Rong Su to ask for a face. Tell me, how would Xiang Yi feel if he knew about this and Rong Su suddenly intervened?" ?”

"I don't understand." Rong Leng blurted out almost immediately, because if it were him, he would also feel puzzled. Rong Su is just an outsider and does not need to be involved at all, but he voluntarily joined the game. There is really no other way to find out except saying that he is sick. for other reasons.

Liu Wei nodded: "Yes, I just don't understand. So what if I don't understand? Naturally, I want to understand. Tomorrow, we will enter the palace early. I have a hunch that something big is going to happen."

Rong Leng frowned, still not connecting the joints inside.

Liu Wei added: "Speaking of which, there is one more thing. Meeting Qiu Fei today suddenly reminded me of Qin'er. It seems that I will have to go to the prison tomorrow."

Liu Wei originally guessed that the person behind the scenes drove Qin'er crazy but did not kill her just because of its value.

However, seeing Qiu Fei committing suicide today made Liu Wei startled. This force behind the scenes was clearly teaching the people below by raising dead soldiers in captivity. Since Qiu Fei had bitten the medicine stuck in her back teeth, Nang, committed suicide, so why not Qin'er?

Liu Wei intuitively felt that there was something that he had overlooked, but he was not sure now. He could only talk about it tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Liu Wei stood up and planned to ask the older girl and the younger girl to bring the hot water in. As soon as he stood up, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and stagnated for a moment. Liu Wei covered his mouth with his backhand, only to feel a retching in his throat, and his steps swayed. .

"Be careful." Rong Leng almost immediately hugged Liu Wei, who was obviously wrong. Looking at her pale cheeks, he frowned, helped her sit down, and then asked: "Are you feeling well?"

Liu Wei shook his head and covered his chest with his hands, but he knew in his heart what was wrong with him.

Morning sickness.

The second baby, during pregnancy, was significantly heavier than the first baby.
