Luo Sheng met Zhu Wu in the lobby of the wine shop.

Zhu Wu obviously changed his robe, but his messy beard and bloodshot eyes couldn't hide the dust and dust in his hurry.

As soon as he saw Luo Sheng come in, he immediately called out to the girl.

"Sit down first." Although Luo Sheng's heart was anxious, his face was calm, and he motioned to Zhu Wurun to moisten his throat before speaking.

Zhu Wu poured a cup of tea, only to feel that his throat, which had been astringent from hurrying for several days, was much more comfortable.

"Did you find it?" Luo Sheng asked.

Zhu Wu nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "Found it." ”

Luo Sheng's eyes lit up and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

It's good to find it successfully!

Zhu Wu took out a slender object wrapped in a green cloth from his sleeve and handed it over: "Girl, look at this?" ”

Luo Sheng took it, lifted the corner of the green cloth and saw the exposed objects, and smiled with crooked lips: "Mr. Zhu has worked hard." ”

"It should."

Luo Sheng's voice was lowered: "People also brought it?" ”

"Brought it, and settled down according to the girl's instructions."

"That's good. You go back and have a good rest first, and the rest will come back later. ”

Zhu Wu hesitated.

It's noon, the girl doesn't leave him to take care of the food?

After waiting for a long time, Luo Sheng didn't see any intention of remembering, so Zhu Wu had no choice but to get up and leave.

Luo Sheng sat quietly in the lobby for a while before returning to the backyard.

Hearing the movement, Luo Dadu came back to his senses: "Sheng'er finished talking to Mr. Bookkeeper so quickly?" ”

"At most, the liquor store is about money, so it's easy to solve." Luo Sheng smiled, his eyes swept over the table, revealing an expression of surprise, "Why didn't my father eat?" ”

"Ah, let's eat." Governor Luo picked up the bowl and devoured the noodles.

In the blink of an eye, the table was cleaned, and Luo Dadu wiped his mouth and praised: "It's delicious!" ”

Luo Sheng was silent.

If you eat it so quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to taste it.

"There's still something going on in the yamen, so I'll go back first for my father." Governor Luo Dadu thought about it and was not at ease, and advised, "Sheng'er, you are just a little girl's family, don't get involved in the affairs of the court." ”

"I see." Luo Sheng replied lightly and pointed out, "Take those two Jinlinwei fathers away." ”

Luo Dadu moved his lips, didn't say anything after all, and strode out.

Luo Sheng stayed in the study and did not move.

The spring sun of the afternoon spilled in through the window, casting a beam of light, and in the pillar of light was a flying dust.

Luo Sheng took out the object brought back by Zhu Wu, and uncovered the green cloth wrapped around it to reveal the whole picture: it was a long Nanmu box.

Unlike the usual boxes for valuables, there are no locks on the box, but several round holes around a small, deep, strangely shaped hole.

If you count carefully, the round hole is exactly seven.

The slender white fingers gently rubbed the Nanmu box, and finally stopped at the deep hole.

I don't know how long later, the gold-encrusted bracelet on my wrist was removed.

Luo Sheng held the bracelet with one hand, pressed the inside of the bracelet with the other, and the red gemstone was actually removed. In this way, the seven gems were removed in turn.

The seven round holes on the box were pressed into seven gems, which seemed to outsiders to be irregular, and only Luo Sheng knew that this was the first step to open the box.

The original glittering gold-encrusted bracelet has become bare, and the ordinary box has become extraordinary.

The strangely shaped hole in the box surrounded by seven-colored gems became more and more mysterious.

The soft fingertips gently caressed each part of the bracelet, and suddenly I heard a ticking sound, and there was a gap in that place, which slowly opened to reveal a slender end with lines.

The bracelet turned out to be a key.

Luo Sheng aimed the end at the small hole in the middle and slowly poked in.

There was a click, the box opened, and a roll of bright yellow lay quietly in the long box.

Luo Sheng carefully unfolded the bright yellow roll, carefully inspected it and smiled relaxedly, then closed the box and took out the gems one by one to restore them.

Moments later, the restored gold bracelet returned to the wrist.

After taking the box back to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and hiding it carefully, Luo Sheng sent someone to deliver a letter to Lin Teng.

When Lin Teng came to a wine shop again, it was already afternoon.

The two met at a stone table next to a persimmon tree in the courtyard.

The spring sun is just right, the courtyard is warmer than the house, and the persimmon tree stretches its bare branches, looking lazy, after all, there is nothing you can do at this time to drop a few leaves to show your sense of existence.

The light and shadow are dappled, making the girl's fair face look more and more feminine.

After a short silence, Lin Teng took the lead in speaking: "Did Miss Luo ask Ling Zun?" ”

When it comes to the case, no matter how difficult it is, he has to meet it.

"Yes."

Such a calm tone made Lin Teng doubt and judge for a while: Could it be that it has nothing to do with Governor Luo?

"My father ordered it to be done."

Lin Teng looked at the girl opposite in astonishment.

Luo Sheng raised his eyebrows: "Lord Lin doesn't think it's strange?" ”

Lin Teng touched the tip of his nose.

He was surprised by Miss Luo's calmness.

Luo Sheng quickly said: "The emperor ordered my father to do it." ”

Lin Teng: "......"

After a long pause, he said with difficulty: "Miss Luo-"

Luo Sheng smiled: "I asked my father stubbornly." I don't care if my father chooses to be silent, but I certainly won't. ”

She looked at Lin Teng fixedly, with a serious expression: "If Lord Lin insists on finding out who is behind the scenes, then I will tell you clearly that it is the emperor." My father was just a knife in the hands of the emperor, and this knife killed people for his master, and he was also guilty, but he did not bear this crime. ”

Lin Teng's face was very exciting for a while, and he smiled bitterly for a while: "Miss Luo really dares to say anything." ”

Luo Sheng's tone was light: "It's only me and Lord Lin here, will Lord Lin arrest me because I tell the truth?" ”

Lin Teng looked at her deeply and spit out two words: "No." ”

"Will Lord Lin impeach the emperor?"

Lin Teng was silent for a long time and shook his head.

The impeachment of the emperor is such a rebellious remark, probably only from Miss Luo's mouth.

But since he was a child, he not only did not feel angry, but felt powerless.

What can he do when the man behind the scenes is the one who sits at the top?

What is justice?

Lin Teng had never felt so cold in his heart for a moment like at this time.

Luo Sheng couldn't bear to force this upright and persistent young man anymore, and sighed lightly: "Lord Lin, instead of thinking about things that are incomprehensible, let's think about what we can do for those one hundred and six women." ”

The five missing women are gone, but the one hundred and six are still there.

She couldn't take advantage of Governor Luo's love for his daughter to force Governor Luo to stop, which would bring ruin to the entire Luo Mansion.

But she couldn't sit back and watch these women lose their lives as she didn't know what to do.

Whether or not you can change the outcome, something must be done.

Unsolvable thing - when Lin Teng heard these words, he had a mouthful of turbid air in his chest, and he couldn't spit it out.

He clenched his fists hard, and his tone was as calm as possible: "Miss Luo is right." ”
