"Did you find out who he was?" Yin Zhen asked in a deep voice, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Although it has been a long time, but after careful investigation by the slave, I still found out the identity,** said that the person had a raw face and a thin voice, and the slave guessed that it should be a father-in-law, and after going to the Liu family to inquire, it also confirmed the slave's guess, the Liu family said that his surname was Yang, and it was ......" The latter words, the secret agent seemed to be a little unsure of how to speak, but kept looking at Yinzhen, and the latter said impatiently: "Go on." ”

The secret agent agreed, and said in a deep voice: "The father-in-law who went to ransom the silver is surnamed Yang, and he claims to be sent by Concubine Xi." ”

Ling Ruo? Yin Zhen was stunned, she didn't expect this matter to be related to Ling Ruo, could it be that Hongsheng's death had something to do with her? This thought was forcibly erased by Yin Zhen as soon as it appeared, although Ling Ruo had angered him more than once, he believed that Ling Ruo would never be a ruthless person.

And if all this was done by Ling Ruo and Liu Hua, she would not intercede for Imperial Physician Jin's family, nor would she eavesdrop on Liu Hua and Jin Mingze talking in the dark room.

I always felt that behind these things that had surfaced, there were still many unknown things hidden, and pressing these thoughts, he asked again: "What else?" ”

"There is also Imperial Physician Liu's family is quite wealthy during this time, and he has been looking at the new house recently, and it seems that he has plans to re-purchase the house, and in the name of Imperial Physician Liu's younger brother, he has deposited 1,350 taels of silver in the silver number, which is equivalent to Imperial Physician Liu's nine years of not eating or drinking." If Liuhua was present and heard the words of the secret agent, he would have to be frightened, and even the silver deposit was inquired about, and there was no secret at all.

Yin Zhen turned around and walked up the steps, tapped his fingers on the table and said, "So it seems that Liu Hua is the real suspicious person?" ”

"Yes." When he said this, the secret agent's eyes flashed, in fact, he not only suspected Liu Hua, but also suspected Concubine Xi, but the emperor had already said that he didn't have to stare at Concubine Xi's side, so the latter sentence was not easy to say again.

"Continue to keep an eye on Liu Hua, where he has been, what he has done, I will remember it clearly, I want to see what kind of person he is!"

"Minions command!" After the spy agreed, Yin Zhen waved his hand and said, "Stand down." ”

"Yes." With this word, the bright candle flame was dimmed again, and when it returned to normal, there was no secret agent in the hall, and only Yinzhen was left.

Feeling the silence that shrouded again, Yinzhen walked to the window, through the window, he could see the moon in the night sky, starry, in the past, as long as he saw the stars in the night sky, his heart would calm down, but now, there is always a trace of silence.

Ruo'er, I am willing to believe you, I only hope that you will never lose my trust, and you must not have anything to do with Hongsheng's death, otherwise you will ruin my future with your own hands.

Let's say that Shu Mulu changed his clothes and fell asleep after returning to Shui Yixuan, and when he woke up, the sky was already white, but he didn't expect that he would sleep so deeply, and he didn't wake up once halfway, and stroked his face, she called: "Like a willow!" Like a willow! ”

When she called for the second time, Ruliu walked in from outside with a copper basin in her hand, first put the copper basin on the shelf, and then helped Shu Mulu to get up, and said after putting the embroidered shoes on her slender and slender feet: "Master, please clean your face first." ”

Shu Mulu nodded, took her hand and walked to the copper basin, in which the water filled with red rose petals floated, the fragrance of the flowers was lush, and it was refreshing.

After cleaning her face, she moved to sit in front of the bronze mirror, and from the bronze mirror, Shu Mulu saw Ruliu, who was combing her hair, showing a look of wanting to speak and stopping, and said, "But you have something to say to me?" ”

Ruliu paused the ivory comb in his hand and said softly: "Master, Aunt Yingchun is here and waiting for the master." ”

With his words, the lightness on Shu Mulu's face slowly disappeared, he lowered his head, picked up a pearl hairpin from the makeup box and said, "Didn't you tell her that I didn't sleep last night?" ”

"The slave maid said it, but looking at Aunt Yingchun's appearance, she didn't seem to believe it." After saying this, Ruliu squatted in front of Shu Mulu suddenly, and said with a sad expression: "Master, do you want to be like this in the future?" ”

Shu Mulu's face turned pale, and then he put the pearl hairpin in his hand on the willow bun, looked at it and said, "This hairpin is very good for you, give it to you." ”

Ruliu shook her head, took off the hairpin and put it back in Shu Mulu's hands, "The slave doesn't want any hairpin, as long as the master is happy." ”

"Silly girl, am I not happy now? The emperor has been very kind to me, promoted me to a nobleman, and the queen treated me very well, and there was a reward every three or five days. She smiled, but no matter how much she disguised it, her smile was pale.

"Not good!" Like the willow head shaking like a wave drum, "The emperor may really feel sorry for the master, but the queen mother is not, otherwise she will not let Aunt Yingchun send medicine after the master sleeps every day, and the queen mother does not allow the master to have her own heirs." ”

"But if there was no queen, I would still be bullied by Huiqiu's subordinates. There must be gains and losses, and people should not be too greedy. Saying this, Shu Mulu re-put the pearl hairpin in the willow hair, "If I reward you, you will take it well, and when you go out of the palace to marry in the future, you will be looked down upon without a decent dowry." ”

Ruliu hesitated for a moment and said, "Will the slaves and maids accompany their masters in the future?" ”

"Are you lonely in the palace with me?" Shu Mulu stroked Ruliu's face distressedly and said: "I know that you don't like life in the palace, and if you barely stay here, you will only be unhappy, you are a good girl, you should be rewarded." ”

"But the slave and maid are gone, and there is no intimate messenger around the master." Although the days of getting along were not long, Ruliu and Shu Mulu were unusually close.

"What a stupid girl, you don't leave tomorrow, there are still many years, enough for me to slowly choose someone to replace you." Shu Mulu sighed lightly and said: "In the palace, you and I are like relatives, I only hope that you will have a group of children in the second half of your life and have a good life." ”

Ruliu silently knelt on Shu Mulu's knees, she really felt sorry for this master, but she was just a tiny slave, and she couldn't help anything except wait for a good master.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside, and then Yushan's voice came in, as soft as her name, "Master." ”

Shu Mulu closed his eyes and calmed down, and Fang raised his voice and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Yushan hurriedly said: "Master Qiqi, Aunt Yingchun asked if you were okay, and she hurried to the queen's mother." ”

Always, there is no escape......

Shu Mulu endured the unwillingness and helplessness in his heart and said: "Zhilu Dao, you go and tell Aunt Yingchun that I will come immediately." ”
