Chapter 540: Imprint Pattern
The second prince pondered for a night, and finally made a decision the next morning.
Withdraw some of the guards of the still water temple to the prince's palace.
His mother had been sent to the still water temple for a while, and he originally thought that some ill-intentioned people would take the opportunity to attack his mother and concubine, but the still water temple had been very quiet all the time, and no one approached it at all.
Now that Su Guifei has been poisoned, her body is stained with a foul smell, and the people in Jingshui Nunnery are unwilling to serve, so her temper is naturally becoming more and more impulsive, and she begins to beat and scold her subordinates at every turn.
A lot of guards have been placed in Jingshui Nunnery, wanting to protect her safety, but in the eyes of others, such a Su Guifei is at the end of her rope, and if she can't find an antidote, she can't return to the palace at all, but no one will attack her.
And as the smell on her body became more and more stinky, some maidservants could endure the smell but couldn't stand Su Guifei's stinky temper, and they became more and more distracted by her.
Concubine Su always had to make a noise every day, and those guards gradually became accustomed to being indifferent, even if they reported the things in the Jingshui Nunnery to the second prince every few days, everything was reported as usual.
Now that the second prince has been assassinated, he feels that the guards in the prince's mansion are a little insufficient.
When Su Guifei was sent to the Jingshui Nunnery, the emperor arranged guards, but he just sent people to the nunnery and returned to the palace, in order to ensure her safety, Rong Yu had to send some elite guards in his palace to protect the safety of the concubine.
After weighing the pros and cons, he only had four guards left in the Jingshui Nunnery, and he took turns to be by Su Guifei's side day and night, so he would not be blackmailed.
When Ji Yanning walked to Rong Che's study, Qiu Li happened to come out of the study and saluted her.
She bowed her head slightly, and walked in.
Seeing Ji Yanning come in, the corners of Rong Che's lips hooked up a smile.
"The news just came that most of the guards on the side of the Jingshui Nunnery have been withdrawn, and now there are only four left. Rong Che said to Ji Yanning, "The rest is up to you." ”
When Ji Yanning heard the news, his eyes moved slightly, but he didn't have too many emotional ups and downs, he just raised his head and said to Rong Che: "Thank you for coming out in person this time." ”
Rong Che frowned slightly and said, "My daughter-in-law told me that Xie Naduo was outside. ”
He leaned over and leaned over his face.
Ji Yanning couldn't help laughing, then raised his head and kissed him on the cheek.
Just wanted to take a step back, but was directly encircled by Rong Che into his arms.
"Flawless became a parent, showing off that he has a daughter-in-law every day, I was thinking of marrying you now, and keeping you firmly by my side all the time. Rong Che said.
Ji Yanning smiled: "There are only nine months left." ”
Rong Che said with a look of grievance: "Nine months is too long. ”
Ji Yanning said: "Then there is no way, it is so long from the filial piety period, if you can't wait to get married, then you can change to a daughter-in-law." ”
Rong Che said: "My daughter-in-law can only be you." ”
"So, we can only wait. Ji Yanning shrugged his shoulders and said, his eyes were full of smiles.
Rong Che looked at her eyes, those smart eyes seemed to hide stars, and he couldn't help but kiss her at the corner of the eye.
"Alright. Ji Yanning broke free from his embrace and said, "Come and tell you about business, didn't you say that the killer last time had a clue?"
Rong Che bowed his head, nodded and said, "Yes, find the same thing on their bodies, they have a small mark on their bodies." ”
He said as he handed over a drawing on the table.
Ji Yanning leaned over to take a look, and his face froze.
"It's the imprint on their body, and if you don't look closely, you might not be able to find it at all, it's on the inside of the wrist. Rong Che said to Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning's eyes stared at the pea flower on the drawing, and frowned.
Rong Che noticed her strangeness and asked, "Do you know this flower?"
Ji Yanning said: "It's a pea flower, do you remember my former name?"
When Rong Che heard her words, he remembered her former name, Ying Caiwei...... Wei?
Ji Yanning lowered his eyes and continued: "I used to like to use this as a mark for my payment. ”
Rong Che's eyes were a little surprised.
If this is the case, then it means that these people who assassinated him and the emperor are the old department of the Ying family or the Lou family, and they are also people who are extremely familiar with Ying Caiwei.
But Rong Che didn't understand that now these people wanted to avenge the Lou family and the Ying family, so why did they suddenly target themselves?
After all, he was not involved in these disputes at the beginning, when the Lou family and the Ying family fell, he still had no memory, if they killed Rong Liang to take revenge, then what was the reason for killing themselves?
Is it just because he is a member of the royal family?
But he felt that this reason was not sufficient, he had fought with those assassins, and knew that it was not easy for such assassins to be cultivated, and it would be a huge loss to die a few times, so how could he kill himself because he was a member of the royal family, and he was not completely sure.
Rong Che asked, "Have you ever found anyone else from the Ying family or the Lou family in Chang'an?"
Ji Yanning's face was solemn, he thought for a long time, but he still shook his head and said: "Since I woke up, I have only seen two of them, one is Ah Xu, but before I met him, he didn't know his life experience, and it was impossible for him to have such strength. The other is Lou Kite in Laizhou County, but she has been trapped by Rong Wu for many years, in fact, she has never taken revenge, naturally it can't be her, and there is no one else. ”
So there must be other people who are plotting revenge, and they have been lurking in the shadows.
It's just that Ji Yanning and Rong Che haven't found out about it.
Rong Che was also silent, and he said, "This pattern mark has been handed over to the emperor, presumably he will see it." ”
Ji Yanning said: "It's okay, anyway, we don't have a clue now." What's more, although the person behind this is using the mark that I used before, but he attacked you, which means that they may not simply want revenge. ”
Rong Che looked at Ji Yanning's calm appearance, but for some reason his heart was a little throbbing.
Originally, he thought that as long as he found something related to her and related to Ying's Lou family, it was normal for her to occasionally lose control, and occasionally think about her former family and friends, but now she is terrifyingly calm.
He hugged Ji Yanning tighter: "Don't worry, I will let people continue to stare at this matter, and I won't attack the people behind you until you speak." ”
Ji Yanning's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "You can find clues and catch them alive, but if they really threaten you, you ...... Don't be merciful. ”
When she said this, it was still a little difficult, because the person behind it was likely to be someone she was familiar with, and it was also likely to be her relatives.
It's just that when Rong Che was poisoned that day and almost couldn't be saved, she was really scared.
She was afraid of losing Rong Che, so no matter what, she had to save Rong Che's life, and no one was allowed to hurt him, even someone she had known before.
Feeling that Ji Yanning's hands were a little cold, Rong Che said, "You don't have to worry, it's not easy to take my life." ”
Ji Yanning raised his eyes and glared at him, and said, "If it wasn't for the timely detoxification last time, you wouldn't be able to talk here at this time." ”
"Isn't that my daughter-in-law? Rong Che smiled, "As long as you are here, I will naturally not have an accident easily." ”
Ji Yanning looked at his faceless appearance, and his originally tense heart finally relaxed a lot.
Since she became Ji Yanning, except for the people from the Dingbei Hou Mansion and the Lord of Ren'an, she has rarely found people she was familiar with in the past.
Because she also knows that there are still people who are still alive and well since that incident, but she is afraid that she will not be able to find a few people who can be trusted.
As a prince, my grandfather was the prince's teacher, and he also taught a lot of students, and now what he left behind is not useless, but they don't want to mention the events of the year again.
Why would she tell her hole cards to such a person who doesn't trust enough?
But it is precisely because of this that some people don't know her identity, don't know that there are still people in the Ying family living in this world, and want revenge.
Unexpectedly, there are a group of people now, which makes her feel that she is not fighting alone, but this feeling did not make her cry with joy, did not make her feel expectant, but felt a little strange.
Because she began to wonder whether the person hiding in the shadows was friend or foe.
Ji Yanning's gaze fell on the imprint pattern, and his eyes moved slightly.
Who will it be?
The opportunity to get along with her back then has fallen, and even Yuan Jing, who has never been involved, is far away from Chang'an and the court, looking at the government and the opposition now, she can't find such an existence.
Rong Che saw her concern, but still asked, "Do you want to tell others vaguely that you are not dead?"
If those who are in the dark know that Ying Caiwei is still alive, maybe they will take the initiative to show up.
It's just that this is quite dangerous, because they haven't been in contact with each other, and they don't even know if they will trust themselves, and they may be detected by the emperor and other people.
So it's a bet, or a very dangerous bet.
Ji Yanning pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
"As we all know, I did die. Ji Yanning's eyes were slightly cold, and he said, "Even if others know that I exist, they will doubt my true purpose, and they are afraid that someone will take advantage of it." ”
Rong Che nodded, he didn't want Ji Yanning to take risks.
He said: "Now that it is basically certain that the person behind the assassin is related to the Ying family, I will ask Wufang to pay more attention to some officials who have been related to the Ying family, you don't have to worry." ”
Ji Yanning said lightly: "Although I can't reveal my identity, I can let them know that my tomb in Huguo Temple is empty." ”
Rong Che's eyes moved slightly, but he quickly understood the meaning of Ji Yanning's words.
