After curing the prince, Ning Ke was light, and in the two days when she was idle, she drew out the decoration effects of the restaurant, and also planned with Mama Wang and Qingqiang, and finally decided on the decoration shop and supplier, as long as she wanted, she could start work immediately.

However, until then, she has an important matter that has not been resolved.

She still lives in Ning Mansion, if she wants to make a restaurant outside, then it will be very inconvenient, and Ning Wei will not agree with her always running out.

Therefore, the big problem she has to solve now is to have a showdown with Ning Wei - she wants to move out! Get out of Ning Mansion! Live freely!

This is something she has been working on since the beginning, and it is also the path that Old Man Hu must take after discussing with her!

Estimating the time, Ning Ke calculated that Ning Wei should come back from the next court, so he went directly to the study to find him.

Ning Wei seemed to be very busy all the time, and when Ning Ke arrived, he was very fascinated when he saw that he was still looking at some letters and other things at the table.

"Knock!" Ning Ke stood at the door and knocked lightly.

Ning Wei seemed to be frightened, his body shook, and then nervously put away the letter and locked it in the drawer.

Ning Ke felt a little strange, Ning Wei always seemed to be reading some letters, a long time ago, when Mrs. Ning slandered that there was a man in her room, she had also seen Ning Wei hide the letters in a panic, and now it was like this, is there any ulterior secret?

"Is that you?" Looking up and seeing that it was her, Ning Wei's brows furrowed, and his tone was displeased, "What are you doing again!"

Ning Ke didn't go in, leaned against the door with his arms crossed, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I won't bother you in the future, I'm here to fulfill my promise with you." ”

"What do you want to mess around again?" Ning Wei's face sank.

Ning Ke raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I know you know, don't pretend, you made a bet with me at that time, saying that as long as I cured the prince, you would give me freedom." Now that I've done it, it's time for you to keep your promise. ”

"I'm not allowed!" Ning Wei heard that she was leaving, his face became even more ugly, and he refused directly, "You are the daughter of the dignified national mansion!

Ning Ke felt very ridiculous, how could this cheap dad be so shameless?

When she was weak and incompetent before, Ning Wei didn't treat her as a daughter, and she was not even as good as a dog.

Now, she has the ability, but Ning Wei is reluctant to let her go?

Hehe!

What an irony!

"I don't care if you approve it or not, I'm here to inform you, not to ask for your consent. She sneered and sneered, turned and walked away.

Striding to catch up, Ning Wei stopped her, angry, "You! If I say it, I won't be allowed! You are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay in the mansion!"

"What if I have to go?" Ning Ke raised an eyebrow at him.

Ning Wei gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "I won't allow you to show your face outside! Kyoto Residence, it's not easy! Do you think you'll be free when you go out? How do you know the danger outside!"

"So, you mean it's good for me?" Ning Ke became more and more ridiculous the more he listened, he didn't necessarily care when he should have cared before, what is it to say this now?

"Anyway, you live in the mansion!" Ning Wei insisted: "The Dong family has been kicked out, and no one will be embarrassed by you, you don't have to leave!"

"What if I have to go?"

Ning Wei bit his cheek and paused for a while before saying, "If you insist on going your own way, then your mother will be very disappointed in you! She will definitely be very sad that her daughter is so disobedient!"

This was the first time Ning Ke had heard Ning Wei take the initiative to mention her mother, but she didn't expect it to be to keep her.

So, in his sense, she couldn't leave Ning Mansion, or was it her mother's request?

"Why?" she couldn't figure out, so she could only ask.

Ning Wei turned his head away and didn't answer directly, "You will naturally know in the future, you just need to remember that this is your mother's last wish!" After pausing for a while, he added, "As long as you don't leave Ning Mansion, if you want to go out, I won't stop you, but you just can't go out to live!"

The words have come to this point, Ning Ke also knew that Ning Wei had given a big concession, originally she wanted to leave the Ning Mansion to facilitate herself, but Ning Wei suddenly mentioned her mother, which made her hesitate.

Everyone knows that her mother is a Xishu woman, but she doesn't know the specific identity, she is a mysterious strange woman. So, what did her mother ask her to stay in Ningfu for?

This is an insoluble mystery, she thinks, maybe it is a good choice to stay, anyway, Ning Wei will not hinder her from going out.

"Good!"

Seeing that she readily agreed, Ning Wei's face softened a little, and after a hum, he stopped talking.

Ning Ke also wanted to ask more about her mother, but Ning Wei didn't seem to want to say anything more, and she finally gave up.

Forget it, she'll investigate it herself in the future!

*

Just when Ning Ke was about to start the renovation of Zhang Luo Restaurant, Chu Junyue came to her.

"How?, did you find a clue?" Ning Ke asked.

Chu Junyue shook his head, "I don't have a clue, so I'm going to look for you to take a look." ”

"Where?"

"Enter the palace!"

If you want to find clues, the most direct way is to go to the scene to investigate.

Ning Ke is a prosecutor in modern times, although she does not often investigate the scene like the criminal police, but it is also a necessary ability, and she is still relatively sure.

The first thing the two of them went to was the prince's East Palace, which was classified and did not make a public announcement, but only went in the name of visiting.

The prince has gradually recovered his health, his face is as handsome as a teenager, and his spirit is not bad, but he is still a little weak.

Seeing Ning Ke coming, the prince's eyes lit up a little, and he hurriedly put down the book in his hand and stood up, "Miss Ning is here!"

"Well, this king has come to see you, too. Chu Junyue stood beside Ning Ke, intentionally or unintentionally, next to Ning Ke, like a pair of begs.

The prince's eyes dimmed a little, and he smiled wryly, "It turns out that the imperial uncle is also here, hehe, the palace has slowly recovered now, and the imperial uncle doesn't have to worry." When he spoke, his eyes were still habitually looking at Ning Ke, "This matter is really thanks to Miss Ning, otherwise this palace is afraid that it will not be able to heal." ”

Ning Ke said lightly: "The prince has won the award, Ning Ke should do it." ”

Chu Junyue was a little displeased, and deliberately blocked in front of Ning Ke, "The prince has just recovered, so he still has to rest more and don't overwork." ”

"Uh......" The prince was a little embarrassed and smiled dryly, "Yes, Uncle Xie Huang cares." ”

Ning Ke didn't know where Chu Junyue's jealousy came from, so he directly left him behind, first checked the prince's pulse, saw how the recovery was, and then by the way to see if there was any new fire Gu invasion.

Fortunately, the prince recovered well and showed no signs of poisoning, so it seems that he has taken precautions.

Ning Ke directly expressed his intention to the crown prince and did not hide it, "Don't hide it from Your Highness, the emperor has ordered me to investigate the poisoning of His Highness with the regent, and some things may need the prince's help." ”

"That's natural, what Miss Ning needs, just say it directly. "The prince deserves to be happy, and he also wants to know who is so vicious and has given him such poison!

"I suspect that someone close to the prince did it, so I asked the prince to give me a list of those who have taken care of you over the years. Ning Ke said.

The prince quickly asked people to fetch the information, and there will be detailed records in the palace.

Ning Ke and Chu Junyue flipped through separately together, in the past ten years, the palace maids around the prince can be said to have come and gone like flowing water, either they couldn't stand his temper, or they offended him and were executed.

However, the fire Gu on the prince's body was not caused at one time, but was constantly increasing, but the palace people changed so frequently, it was naturally impossible to poison it.

In this way, the suspicion of the palace people can be ruled out.

So, how did the prince get poisoned? Who is so capable, and how did he do it?

Ning Ke was puzzled, and finally proposed to go to various places in the East Palace, including various rooms, gardens, specially approved imperial dining rooms, etc., wherever it was possible, she refused to let go.

As soon as she enters the state, she will become serious and professional, rigorous and focused, and people can't help but ignore her ugly appearance, and feel that there is a magical magic in her that attracts people's attention.

The prince looked deeply at her petite body squatting on the ground, not afraid of dirt and dirt, rummaging around, free and capable.

When he saw such a woman for the first time in his life, he felt new and happy.

Chu Junyue's face was displeased, and he once again blocked in front of the prince, and asked Ning Ke, "How is it?

"Nope. Ning Ke patted the dirt on his hands and stood up, "The environment here is not suitable for the growth and preservation of Fire Gu, I think Fire Gu was brought in from the outside." ”

Fire Gu is not like ordinary poison that can be carried around, it is something similar to a microorganism, which must be cultivated in special soil to grow, otherwise it will die within two quarters of an hour.

And the prince's bedroom, or even the entire palace, did not meet the conditions, so there was only one possibility left - the fire Gu was brought in from the outside.

"Outside?" Chu Junyue's eyes sank, "But there are so many people in and out of the palace every day, and there are many people who can come into contact with the crown prince, and it is difficult to investigate." ”

Ning Ke can't deny that this investigation is really very difficult, there are many people in the palace, and they don't know how many people's hands will pass through a dish, who knows which link was poisoned?

Moreover, one contact is certainly not enough to poison the prince like this, it is caused by repeated poisoning! The person who poisons must be someone who can often come into contact with the prince directly or indirectly!

"Your Highness, you eat in the imperial dining room on weekdays, can you show me the purchase records?" ”

Ning Ke thought about it, and still felt that diet was the most likely, people had to eat and drink, and the palace could not produce and grow it on its own, and the grain and vegetables were all transported in from outside, maybe the prince's poison was like this.
