Chapter 71: Ecstasy Incense (1)

"You've been in charge of collecting this silver charcoal all along?" Rong Yuan checked the basket of silver charcoal that Li Weigang brought again, and sure enough, he also found that there was ecstasy incense.

Li Wei had already learned the ins and outs of the matter from Shui Yue's mouth at this time, and seeing that he had been staring at the silver charcoal for so long, he knew that the problem must be here, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Since the cold weather, the silver charcoal has always been a slave who goes to the charcoal house to collect it, but the slave swears to the sky that he has never moved any hands and feet, let alone intended to harm the master, please ask the master and Imperial Doctor Xu to learn clearly!" ”

"Get up." Ling Ruo couldn't stand for a long time, folded his hands and sat down in the rosewood chair, and said in a weak voice: "You are the person next to me, I will not doubt you, you think about it carefully, every time you go back to receive charcoal, there is something strange." ”

Weird...... Li Wei lowered his head and thought for a long time before he said with some uncertainty: "The slave doesn't know if this is weird, the little guy in the charcoal house Wang Bao and the slave are a little festive, in fact, it's not a big deal, it's just a few years ago when he was hiding with a few small guys when he was gambling with the slave and was seen by the slave and said a few words to them, and then this matter was somehow known by Li Fujin, and fined Wang Bao a month's regular money, Wang Bao thought it was the slave's secret, so since then there have been few words about the slave, but these days when I met in the charcoal house, He actually took the initiative to talk to the minions, his attitude was very enthusiastic, some talked and laughed, and he also picked up the best silver charcoal for the minions to pack and bring back. The minion thought he had figured it out, so he didn't care. ”

After Rong Yuan pointed out that there was a problem with the charcoal, someone had already taken water to extinguish it, although the warmth in the house was not there, but the ghost that had plagued Ling Ruo for a long time really did not appear again, which made her spirit improve, and she was not so tired when she thought about it, and thought about it for a while: "A few words of dispute are just a few words, but he can remember them for several years, it can be seen that Wang Bao is not a broad-minded person, even so, how can he suddenly let go of his feelings and rebuild the old friendship with you?" If you want me to say that I have nothing to do, I am not a traitor or a thief. ”

"It's the negligence of the slave, fortunately there is Imperial Doctor Xu this time, otherwise the slave has harmed the master, and I don't know, please punish the master!" Li Wei hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, looking annoyed.

"It is better to atone for sins than to ask for sin." Ling Ruo glanced at him and turned to Rong Yuandao, "What does Imperial Doctor Xu think?" ”

"There are many ecstasy incense materials, and the production is complicated, it is by no means something that a subordinate can do, and Fu Jin and Wang Bao have no festivals, so Wei Chen guesses that Wang Bao is just an obedient person, and there must be a main messenger behind him, and only by finding out this main messenger Fu Jin can he really rest easy."

Ling Ruo raised his sleeves to cover his mouth and smiled slightly: "What Imperial Doctor Xu wants coincides with me, I can't wait to meet this Wang Bao and ...... The big fish behind him. ”

Rong Wan handed a prescription that had just finished writing the ink and had not yet dried to Shui Yue, "Fu Jin has been disturbed by ecstasy incense these days, and his mind has been greatly consumed, this prescription will help Fu Jin to recuperate, Wei Chen still has something to do in the Tai Hospital, so he retired first." ”

"Thank you to Imperial Physician Xu for this matter today, Ling Ruoming is grateful to him, Moyu, send Imperial Physician Xu out of the city for me." She bowed her head, and there was a hint of emotion in her eyes when she swept over Rong Yuan's calm and gentle face, he will always be the person who cares about himself the most in this world, and there is no one.

After Rong Yuan left, Ling Ruo immediately summoned Li Wei and ordered him to try to find out about Wang Bao's situation. Wang Bao is a gambler, has never married a wife, since he was a child, his parents died, only one younger brother is farming at home, I heard that he has a very good relationship with his younger brother. He has a lot to do with Xiao Si who was killed by the rod a few days ago, and he secretly went to pay tribute to Xiao Si after his death.

"Will there be affection between gamblers?" Ling Ruo sneered at this and said to Li Wei: "Go and call Wang Bao, just say that I have something to ask him." ”

Li Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Now you are not afraid of startling the snake and scaring away the big fish behind him?"

Ling Ruo stood in front of the window and looked up at the night like a huge net slowly falling from the sky, and the fine strands of hair and tassels flew together in the night that was about to fall, "I just want to lure the snake out of the hole, you just have to pass it on." ”

Seeing that Ling Ruo didn't want to say more, Li Wei closed his mouth knowingly, said yes and left quickly, and after a while, he brought in a man in his early thirties with a short beard.

"Master Qiqi, Wang Bao is here." As soon as Li Wei's voice fell, Wang Bao immediately said respectfully: "The slave asks Ling Fujin for peace, Ling Fujin is auspicious." ”

"Get up." Ling Ruo looked at him carefully, endured the disgust in his heart, and said slowly, "How many years have you been in the mansion?" ”

When Wang Bao first came in, his eyes quietly turned around, and he found that there was no charcoal burning in such a cold heavenly house, and his already somewhat uneasy heart sank more and more, and he said uneasily: "If you go back to Ling Fujin, the slave has only entered the mansion at the age of nineteen, and it has been twelve years since then. ”

Ling Ruo nodded noncommittally, took Mo Yu's hand and got up and paced in front of him, "That means that you were already in the Baylor Mansion when it was first opened and the Mansion was built, and you can be regarded as an old man in the Mansion, and now you are in charge of the Charcoal House." In this case, we should be more aware of our duty as a slave. Speaking of this, his voice suddenly became cold, and he said sharply: "Why do you dare to do such a reckless thing to murder your master? ”

Wang Bao's face changed, and his legs trembled slightly, but he still forced himself to calm down and said, "The slave doesn't know what Lu Dao Fujin means by this?" ”

"You're still pretending to be confused with me." Ling Ruo pouted at Li Wei, who immediately took out the untouched silver charcoal from the corner consciously, and fell in front of Wang Bao with a "whoosh", Wang Bao's face suddenly turned gray and trembling when he saw the basket of silver charcoal, and even the last trace of luck was gone, and the matter must have been exposed.

Sure enough, Li Wei angrily smashed the empty basket to the ground, grabbed his collar and roared viciously: "Wang Bao, you are so bold, you dare to mix ecstasy incense in the silver charcoal to frame my master, causing my master to think that he is haunted by ghosts and can't sleep at night, do you know that this is a capital crime!" As long as he thinks of his carelessness and causing his master to suffer so much, he will not be angry, and he can't kill him to vent his hatred.

"I ...... I don't know the way, I don't know anything! I've never even heard of ecstasy incense or something, don't wronged me indiscriminately! Wang Bao loudly denied it, but his panicked look had betrayed everything.

"Wronged you? Very good. Ling Ruo smiled silently, stroked the beads that drooped his cheeks with his bare hand and said: "Little Weizi, go and report this matter to Lord Belle, just say that I have caught the ghost that haunted me with nightmares, I think Lord Belle will be very interested, what do you say Lord Belle will do with him?" ”

Li Wei grinned and showed his snow-white and cold teeth, "The slave heard that there is a punishment called Ling Chi in the criminal law, who uses a fishing net to tightly net people, and then uses a knife to cut off the exposed skin outside the fishing net piece by piece, it is said that someone has been cut more than a thousand times and survived for more than ten days before dying. ”

"Don't!" Wang Bao's courage was not great, but now he was frightened by Li Wei and suddenly broke his heart, and he threw himself at Ling Ruo's feet and kowtowed with tears in his eyes, "Ling Fujin spares his life, the slave knows that he is wrong, the slave will not dare next time, spare his life!" ”

"And next time?" This sentence made Wang Bao dare not breathe, only kowtowed and begged for mercy, and after his forehead was red and swollen, Ling Ruofang bent down, staring at Wang Bao with a pair of long and deep eyes, "Do you want to live?" ”

Wang Bao nodded hurriedly, regretting it in his heart, he shouldn't have been greedy for that bit of silver if he knew this, but now I'm afraid that even his life will be gone, and he blames the group of people last time, if they hadn't won too hard, why would he and Xiaosi have to take risks, but it's useless to say anything now.

"If you want to live, tell me if you drugged me." Ling Ruo held the stove in his hand and asked in a deep voice, it was raining outside at some point, and it "ding" on the eaves.
