Bai Que arranged for people from Nine Stars to secretly spy on Murong Chong, which he did not shy away from admitting, not only that, but he also admitted frankly that around King Rong's Mansion, people from Nine Stars were also arranged.

Lin Ruo frowned: "Bai Gongzi told me this, aren't you worried that I will tell the prince about this, and the shadow guard will get rid of the nine-star killer who is secretly staring at the prince and the palace in one fell swoop?" ”

Bai Que smiled: "You won't do this. ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"I am so frank and honest about my fist and fist, and Miss Lin is not hard-hearted, how can she be so unkind?"

Lin Ruo sneered: "That Bai Gongzi really doesn't know me too much." ”

"Hey—you can't say that," Bai Que waved his finger, "Lin ...... Oh, it's too rusty for us to call it that, I heard that Prince Rong called you 'Ah Ruo', right? That's what I'll call you. ”

Bai Que didn't give Lin Ruo a chance to object at all, so he said almost simply: "Ah Ruo, you have also seen Sister Ling's jade pendant, you should know where this Xiu jade jade pendant comes from." And what should be the identity of the person who holds this jade pendant - you should know it too, right? ”

Lin Ruo raised her eyebrows, in the past, she only felt that this jade pendant came from the palace and was a gift from the emperor, so although she guessed that Bai Que's identity was not low, she only thought about it after the princes and ministers. However, now that she knows that the pattern on this jade pendant was drawn by Emperor Mingzong himself, the conjecture of Bai Que's identity is completely different.

The pattern drawn by the emperor himself, so how valuable this pair of jade pendants should be, it goes without saying. Therefore, the object to whom the emperor will reward the jade pendant must also be the person on the emperor's top heart.

One piece was given to her mother Lin Yuan'er, and I am afraid that there is a meaning of affection in it, so the other piece will not be too far behind the meaning of the reward. And if you can erase the records in the books of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you are naturally not an idle person.

Gu Manxi is the biological daughter of Emperor Mingzong, so is Bai Que the biological son of Emperor Mingzong? In addition, the other party said that she Lin Ruo should have been his princess, doesn't it also prove this?

Should have been his princess?

So, is he implying that he should have been the fourth prince of Donglu?

Targeting Murong Chong everywhere, just because Murong Chong, a person who has no blood relationship with the royal family, took his place, enjoyed his glory, and took away the love of his father and brother that should have belonged to him?

"You ......"

Lin Ruo's face was uncertain, this speculation may be the most outrageous, but it may also be the closest to the truth.

Through the mask, I couldn't see Bai Que's expression, and I couldn't read more information in those joking eyes.

"You guessed it."

Not a questioning question, but a firm statement. He is not a roundworm in Lin Ruo's stomach, and he will not know what Lin Ruo is thinking in his head, but from Lin Ruo's expression, he guessed that Lin Ruo followed the guidance he gave and guessed along this correct line of thought - even if he was half-truthful and half-false jokes every time he confronted her, but about the matter of identity, he really didn't plan to hide it from Lin Ruo, because if he wanted to do something, he had to use Lin Ruo's hands.

Lin Ruo is a smart person, and he is a smart person with ability and ability. The true and false clues that he specially leaked gradually left the seeds of doubt in Lin Ruo's heart. If there is suspicion, she will go to verify, no matter how clean the clues in the palace are, he believes that Lin Ruo will find some clues.

And what could be more convincing than the results of your own verification?

Without.

Lin Ruo frowned, looked at Bai Que vigilantly, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?" ”

This question can be asked vaguely, it can be to ask him what he is doing in the capital, it can be to ask what he wants to do when he approaches her, or even to ask what he wants to do with this identity in the end.

However, Bai Que didn't answer any of them, but said: "Yesterday, Miss Gu invited Prince Rong to meet alone, and in order not to reveal her identity, she specially found a ruffian who was mixed in the streets of Beishi to stop Lord Rong, Ah Ruo, do you know where the messenger is now?" ”

Lin Ruo frowned, not understanding what Bai Que wanted to say.

Bai Que chuckled, as if he didn't expect her to answer, and continued to take care of himself: "That ruffian's surname is Liu, nicknamed Liu Lao'er, and he is a big hand specially hired by the gambling house to rob and win money. Miss Gu was really generous and rewarded several gold beads. However, by last night, this Liu Lao Er died. Ah Ruo, you are so smart, guess how he died? ”

Lin Ruo's eyebrows never stretched, looking at Bai Que's gaze expecting her to give an answer, so he guessed unthinkingly: "I missed my wealth and was remembered." ”

"Uh-no."

"Joy and sorrow, drinking water and choking to death."

Bai Que smiled: "This idea is strange, but it's not right. ”

Lin Ruo couldn't bear to play this kind of game with him, so he casually asked, "How did you die?" ”

"It's not fun to just publish the answers." Bai Que was very patient, not in a hurry to announce the answer, and smiled mysteriously, "Hint, there are Liu Laoer's tooth marks on the gold bead." ”

In order to verify the authenticity of gold and silver, the rough method of "biting teeth" is often used to verify the authenticity.

Wait, Jin Zhu?

Lin Ruo's black eyes blinked, and a fine light flashed.

With the current situation of the Gu Mansion and Gu Manni's ungenerous behavior, it would be too generous to use gold beads to reward a ruffian, right? It is bold enough to reward a purse of broken silver, why use gold beads instead?

What is the difference between a gold bead and a silver bar?

"Poisoned?"

Bai Que slapped his hands with his fists: "Ah Ruo, you are really smart, you can guess it!" ”

If you apply poison to the broken silver, the silver will turn black; But Jinzhu doesn't have this function. Moreover, with Liu Laoer's identity, when he found out that the reward was Jin Zhu, his first reaction was surprise, and his second reaction would be to doubt whether Jin Zhu was genuine, so he subconsciously bit his teeth, and the poison stained on Jin Zhu entered his mouth.

Lin Ruo looked at Bai Que, this person is cunning, and he will not be bored enough to come to the fourth floor of the gluttonous sea, order a table of delicacies, and then specially tell her about such boring trivialities.

Poison?

...... Tangmen?

Xishu?!

Gu Manni is the one who is about to become the princess of Xishu Zhan, and she specially found Murong Chong to instigate the ambiguous relationship between her and Song Huan Chu......

All this had to make her think about it a lot.

"Tangmen's poison?"

"Oh, Aruo, why are you so smart! Can you even think of this? Bai Que's eyes were full of appreciation, even if he was sincerely admired, because his unruly words and deeds seemed not so sincere, "I regret more and more that I couldn't marry ......"

Lin Ruoyan's knife flew over, Bai Que stopped his mouth in time, and pretended to laugh lightly: "Bai Mou is telling the truth!" With that, he leaned back leisurely.
