205. 205: Homecoming
"Since you said that you remember everything in the warehouse, then how did I find that there was a bottle of aconitine missing during the inventory just now, and there is no record of who took it, isn't this in conflict with what you just said?"
Sure enough, as soon as Wu Ying asked this, the palace people's eyes flashed, and they hurriedly cleared up the relationship, "My lord, don't wronged the slave, the slave has not taken anything." ”
Wu Ying guessed correctly, after trying it like this, she tried out that there was a ghost in the heart of this palace person, "Aconitine is a tribute thing, although it is precious, it is actually a violent poison, not to mention who took it, if this thing is lost in the Guangchu Division, if it flows into the harem, the consequences are unimaginable, can you afford such a responsibility!" ”
The palace man shrank for a moment, "This...... This minion didn't dare to say it. ”
"If you don't say it again, then I can only report it, and there are people in the Guangchu Division who are filling their own pockets." Wu Ying saw that he had been shaken, and then took another dose of fierce medicine, "And you also said just now, the previous Guangchu Division was the Ming Gonggong next to the emperor, so naturally he would not do such a thing, it must be taken by one of you." ”
The palace man finally couldn't stand the repeated criticism of Wu Ying, and hurriedly told the truth, "My lord was wronged, this thing, it was taken by Gonggong Ming." ”
Seeing his scared appearance before, she also guessed in her heart that it might be taken by a concubine in the harem, after all, it is not uncommon for the inner courtyard of the deep palace to fight openly and secretly, and she didn't dare to say it because of the identity of the other party, but she didn't expect that the person who took away aconitine turned out to be Xiao Mingzi!
"You make it clear, and if you say anything half, you know the consequences."
"Yes, yes, the slave remembers that it was the New Year two years ago, and the slave came back to guard the door after the New Year's Eve that night, and it happened that Ming Gonggong came out of the warehouse at this time, holding a box in his hand, because the slave saw it when he sent aconitine here before, and it looked like that."
The palace people said with a helpless face, "Generally, taking things from this treasury is based on the emperor's will, but the slave is just a small gatekeeper, and he didn't dare to ask Father-in-law Ming. ”
"My lord, don't say it's a slave, if Gonggong Ming knows, he will definitely not let the slave go."
"As long as you tell the truth, I won't interrogate more, this thing, less is less." Wu Ying only said that it was because she found out that something was missing in the inventory that she recruited people to culture, and she would not let others know that they were investigating the matter of aconitine.
"Oh, yes."
"Alright, you go down."
Wu Ying was puzzled, "Why did Xiao Mingzi take the aconitine, and it happened that there was no record, he did it on purpose?" So what does he have to do with the person who wants to kill me? ”
"If Xiao Mingzi is the mastermind behind the scenes, then it is impossible, who must he be helping to do, but he is so loyal to the emperor, who else is besides the emperor?"
"Okay, don't think about it, it's not early today, you can go back quickly." The clues once again forced them into a dead end, about Xiao Mingzi, he didn't have much certainty, he had never been wronged with him, if he wanted to kill him, it was really impossible, they didn't know him at that time.
"You wait, I'll go out of the palace with you, I'll go with you."
Wu Ying didn't tell him much, because she was afraid that Zhi'er would be afraid if she saw an extra scar on her father's face.
"You?"
"Yes, I'll go home with you." Wu Ying answered as a matter of course.
"But"
"Don't worry, the emperor trusts me for the time being, and it's okay if you don't go back to the palace overnight."
Yu Hongchou was secretly happy in his heart, but his face still showed a worried look, "It's better to be careful." ”
"If you don't go, I'll go." Wu Ying didn't bother to talk to him, he was almost a frightened bird now.
"It's coming, it's coming."
The two of them rushed home when they left the palace.
"Aunt Wang, thank you, is Zhi'er still good today?" Because of the lesson from the last time, Aunt Wang didn't dare to leave Xiao Chengzhi alone anymore, so she came to Yu Hongchou's house to help watch when she was free.
"Okay, this kid is very well-behaved and sensible, you can be content, Wu Ying also left such a son for you, you must be good to him, I will go back." Aunt Wang really feels sorry for the child, but she still cares about the incident in her heart, and she doesn't have a good face for Yu Hongchou.
"Huh? You, you you? Xiao Chengzhi couldn't react for a while.
Wu Ying thought about it, he must be used to seeing his hair loose, and after thinking about it, he untied his crown, "In this way, does Zhi'er still know her mother?" ”
"Wow, mother, you finally came to see Zhi'er, Zhi'er misses her mother so much."
"My mother also wants to be Zhi'er."
"Zhi'er has grown up, don't let your mother hold it anymore, come down quickly." Yu Hongchou said that he was going to reach out and take Xiao Chengzhi down from Wu Ying's arms.
But Xiao Chengzhi obviously shrank in Wu Ying's arms, because he saw the scar on Yu Hongchou's face, and he didn't dare to look up when he hid in Wu Ying's arms, children would be afraid when they saw this, and they could understand it.
"Zhi'er is not afraid, this is Dad, are you still afraid of him?" Wu Ying hurriedly educated the child at this time, and didn't let this man mind the scars on his face anymore.
"But there are centipedes on my father's face, and Zhi'er is so scared when he sees it."
"That's because you didn't look carefully, if you take a closer look, do you think your father is very manly, how domineering, so that as long as others see him, they don't dare to approach, don't you say!"
Xiao Chengzhi's head is still very small, and he can't digest so much, but he understands a few key words, manly, domineering, yes, the young lady next door to Grandma Wang's house also said that she likes domineering men the most, isn't that like Dad!
Then he looked at Yu Hongchou with a pair of big timid eyes, and grinned, "Dad is so funny." ”
"yes, yes, it's funny." Wu Ying followed his words, so it would be fine.
"Obediently, can my mother coax you to sleep?"
"Yes."
Xiao Chengzhi obediently fell asleep in her arms, carried him to the next room to rest, and she returned to the original room.
The furnishings of the room were still the same as before, and the things she had used before were not covered with a layer of ash, as if they were often used.
"I don't know when you'll be back, anyway, wipe every day."
This man always does things that make people want to cry.
"Okay, why are you crying again?" Her tears have always been Yu Hongchou's magic barrier.
"It's just the sand squinting." Yu Ying is still stubborn.
"Then I'll blow it for you."
The feather-like kiss on his face, soft and cherished, he went all the way down, kissing the red lips he had missed for a long time......
The temperature in the house rises, and the room is filled with gentleness and charm in an instant.
