This made Lin Mumu a little surprised, after all, as far as she knew, the Rong family was tied to Lin Haode wholeheartedly, and then Lin Haode lost her, but now Zhao Chen told her that the Rong family had someone else in his heart?

"How do you know what the kid said is true?"

"Of course the main hall doesn't know, but she said that your mother engraved the other party's words on the heart for that person, and it seems that she wants to imprint the other party in her heart."

Lin Mumu was silent, the Rong family was dead, and even if she wasn't dead, no one knew where she was now, and there was no way to verify what he said.

"Who's that man?"

Zhao Chen suddenly straightened up and approached her, Lin Mumu subconsciously frowned and was about to retreat when he heard him: "King Sui, Zhao Xin." ”

Lin Mumu was stunned, King Sui...... A prince who rebelled more than ten years ago at the beginning of the Showa Emperor!

"Back then, your mother met King Sui in Qingcheng, and then fell in love with him, and then King Sui returned to Beijing, and it didn't take long for him to leave your mother to marry your father."

Lin Mumu looked at Zhao Chen. "Is it the King of Sui lying in that coffin in the mountain?"

Zhao Chen gave her an approving look, and he could associate it before he said it. "That's right, the main hall said before that the person in the coffin looked a little familiar, it turned out that he was born with a little resemblance to Uncle Yuwang."

Hearing this, Lin Mumu frowned.

"When the King of Sui rebelled and was arrested by the emperor, he was beheaded at the south city gate to show the public." She remembered that the body in the coffin was intact, without any signs of stitching.

Zhao Chen hooked the corners of his lips and chuckled. "Yes, my father was personally present to supervise the beheading at that time, who do you say has such a great ability to steal dragons and phoenixes?"

Lin Mumu looked at him and didn't say a word, how could she know about what happened so many years ago, after calculating that when Zhao Xin died, the Rong family had only married Lin Haode not long ago, and she, the daughter of a businessman, could have so much ability to buy the people in the prison to let go of a person who the emperor wanted to personally supervise and kill?

Lin Mumu shook her head secretly, feeling that this possibility was extremely low.

Besides, if Zhao Xin hadn't been beheaded back then, then how did he die, and who placed his body in that tomb in the mountains?

"What does Your Highness say about my mother?"

Zhao Chen sat up straight. "Presumably you have asked people to go to the cemetery of the Rong family in Qingcheng, this hall is just trying to tell you this, your mother is not as simple as you imagined, the fief of Zhao Xin, the king of Sui, was in Wangcheng, Jiangnan, where is the richest place in the entire Jiangnan, it is rumored that the wealth of the Sui Wangfu can be worth the treasury in a year, but after the death of the king of Sui, his wealth is unknown."

"Don't you think that those wealth Sui Kings secretly handed over to my mother, and my mother faked her death and got out, waiting for the day when the time is ripe to kill back to Xijing to avenge the King of Sui?"

Zhao Chen smiled and said nothing, obviously he had such a guess.

"It's not for nothing that Your Highness thinks about this possibility, but it's a pity that you really can't get any useful information about my mother from me, because I probably know less about my mother than you."

"Lord Lin doesn't want to know if your mother is still alive in this world?"

Lin Mumu stood up and stroked her somewhat wrinkled dress. "I don't really want to."

"Don't you want to?" Zhao Chen obviously didn't believe it.

"I think, I just want a simple mother, not a person who will cause me trouble, if she will bring me death, then I might as well be dead, thank you for telling me about my mother today, I will leave if there is nothing to do." Lin Mumu said with a ruthless face.

Zhao Chen didn't stay, just watched her walk out of the water pavilion all the way.

As soon as Lin Mumu left, Zhao Chen's cronies walked in.

"Your Highness, did you say that Lin Mumu really didn't know about the Rong family?"

Zhao Chen picked up the wine glass and shook it, then raised his head and drank the wine. "If everything in this hall can be expected, it will be an immortal, since she will find someone to check Rong's coffin, she must have doubts in her heart, find someone to watch, and see what she will do next."

"Yes."

After Lin Mumu returned to the mansion, he kept sitting under the porch with his hands on his cheeks.

"Miss, what news did you get when you went to find the eldest prince?" Shuangshuang couldn't hold back his words, he looked at Lin Mumu with his eyes open for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask.

Lin Mumu turned her head and glanced at her. "It is not difficult to see from his words that he thinks that my mother is probably not dead."

Shuangshuang and Qiaoqiao looked surprised. "This, how is this possible."

"I don't know, but if my mother died, where would her body go?"

In fact, there is a sentence in what she said to Zhao Chen today, if the Rong family is really as Zhao Chen guessed, then her death that year is the best protection for her daughter, after all, she was still young when the Rong family died, and once the Rong family died, those who doubted the Rong family would be useless even if they arrested her, which was also an invisible protection for her.

"Miss, why don't you ask Old Madam Rong?" Back then, it was the people of the Rong Mansion who took away the corpse of the Rong family, and they might know.

"Grandmother shouldn't know." She had already tried it, and from the reaction of Old Madam Rong, it could be seen that she thought that the Rong family was buried in the ancestral grave of the Rong family.

However, Mrs. Rong doesn't know, it doesn't mean that other people in the Rong family don't understand, but it is not very likely that she will ask one by one, so if you want to investigate this matter, you have to find other breakthroughs.

"Shuangshuang, apart from the mother-in-law who served as a janitor in my mother's yard that you met on the street before, didn't any of the old people who served by my mother's side have been left behind?"

Shuangshuang shook his head.

Lin Mumu thought about it, got up and went back to the house, walked to the desk, picked up the pen and wrote.

After a few moments, she blew on the written letter and put it in an envelope. "Stack."

Stacked into the house.

Lin Mumu handed her the letter. "This will be passed on to Ning Yuan immediately."

"Yes, slave and maid will go." Kiss

In the evening, when Lin Mumu came out of the clean room, she saw an extra letter on the desk, and she hurriedly opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.

It was Zhao Xuanling's reply to her, this time the content of the letter was more, but it was stiff and rigid, without any good words, and just told her that he had already recruited troops in Iron Horse Hancheng to go to Western Chu, and it would not be long before the war between the two countries began.

Seeing this, Lin Mumu frowned unconsciously, the battle for hegemony between the two countries is still the people who suffer in the end, and once this battle is fought, I don't know how many innocent people will be ruined and displaced.

But even if Zhao Xuanling doesn't fight this battle, the ambitious Emperor Showa will send someone else, and he will take the opportunity to take back the military power in Zhao Xuanling's hands, and no one knows what he will do to Zhao Xuanling at that time.

Lin Mumu read the letter several times, and finally carefully folded it and put it away.

She walked to the desk and prepared to write a reply to Zhao Xuanling, and when she put pen to paper, there was a faint agarwood fragrance from the tip of her nose, and agarwood incense was the taste she liked.

"Miss, you're tired these days, drink a bowl of nourishing tea and write again, don't exhaust yourself."

Lin Mumu put the last stroke on the letterhead, and stretched after putting the pen down.

"Well, I've been a little tired lately, and more and more people are coming to see me."

Lin Mumu stretched out his hand and took a sip of the recuperating tea.

"This taste...... Did you boil it with a recipe you got from your grandmother? ”

Qiaoqiao nodded. "Well, the eldest lady said that this recipe is good, and the slave maid brought it to boil a bowl today, how does the eldest lady think it tastes?"

"It's a little sour, but I can swallow it."

"Miss, don't be picky, this is a nourishing tea and not sugar water."

Lin Mumu's spirit was indeed not very good, but after drinking a bowl of nourishing tea, he instantly felt that the whole person was in good spirits, and the original sleepiness dissipated in an instant.

"It's not too early for the eldest lady, let's rest early, and I'll report to the women's medical office tomorrow." Qiaoqiao glanced at the hourglass road.

Lin Mumu nodded and walked to the bed to lie down, and coincidentally blew out the lamp and closed the door when she saw this.

I don't know if it's because of drinking the nourishing tea, Lin Mumu almost didn't close her eyes this night, and she was lying on the bed thinking nonsense.

……

Zhao Xuanling's entire army of 200,000 was on the way to the border of Western Chu.

At night, the army camped on a meadow with a wide view.

"Lord Wang, there's news from Xichu." Hui walked into the camp and handed over the news that the spies had found.

Zhao Xuanling took the news and looked at it.

"Western Chu is already reorganizing its troops on the border close to the Eastern Jin Dynasty."

"Does the prince really plan to fight with Xi Chu?" Wu Zedao.

Zhao Xuanling raised his eyes slightly. "Xichu will be the first to provoke a war."

"Why?"

"Because they think that the Eastern Jin Dynasty will definitely fight."

Nangong Chengcheng and Nangong Cong had already sent back the news from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the monarch of Western Chu was not a soft persimmon, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty had sent troops as a whole, how could he sit and wait to be killed, not only would he not sit still, but he would also find a reason to send troops to the Eastern Jin Dynasty first, and strike first.

"Arrange for people to evacuate the people closest to the border first, and find a place to resettle them."

"Yes."

Zhao Xuanling is not a cold-blooded and ruthless person, he only kills the damned.

"Lord Wang, the message from Xijing." Mingyang walked into the tent and handed an envelope to Zhao Xuanling.

Taking the envelope, Zhao Xuanling's cold expression gradually softened.

Mingyang Chaohui squeezed his eyes, Hui glanced at him speechlessly, and stood still.

Mingyang rolled his eyes speechlessly, what a fool, didn't you see that the prince wanted to taste the letter that Miss Lin gave him alone, what are these people who have no eyesight still standing here to obstruct their eyes!

Zhao Xuanling opened the letter, and when he looked at the dense handwriting on the letter, his eyebrows and eyes were relaxed.

Hui and the others were silently watching Zhao Xuanling's expression change, but they suddenly received a cold gaze that made them tremble.

"Nothing else to do?"

The three of them quickly came back to their senses.

"The subordinates retired."

After the three of them retreated, Zhao Xuanling read the letter from beginning to end again, Lin Mumu was never a man of few words in front of him, every time he wrote a letter to him, he would write a few pages full of papers, and what he said was nothing more than some trivial things he did on weekdays.

But I don't know why, these ordinary words can stir up waves in his quiet heart.

"Lord Wang, there is an urgent report ahead."

Zhao Xuanling's expression froze, and he put the letter away.
