Chapter 28: Misunderstanding
As soon as Feng Wei left, the blue baby panicked even more.
"You come with me." Jin Lingluo glanced at her and went upstairs first.
After a moment's hesitation, the blue baby took a deep breath, quickly got up from the ground, and followed lightly.
All the rooms on the second floor are interconnected, elegantly laid out and orderly.
Because he was afraid of King Ling, Lan Baobao just glanced at it casually, and quickly lowered his head.
Jin Lingluo came to a half-open study room that was cut off by a screen, raised his hand and tapped it three times on the bookcase, "You found this thing?" ”
He asked, and the blue baby had to look up, but his eyes deliberately avoided the other party.
King Ling had a wooden box in his hand, the one she and Feng Wei had found in the deserted mansion.
"Yes." She replied softly.
Jin Lingluo's hand was placed on the wooden box, and he asked, "Have you seen the things inside?" ”
Thinking of Feng Wei's expression after reading the letter, Lan Baobao quickly shook his head and said, "No." ”
"The contents of the letter involve another old case, which is very involved, and if it proves to be true, it will definitely involve the officials of the DPRK and China......
At this point, there was a sudden pause, King Ling pondered for a moment, sighed softly, and said, "It's okay if you don't know, so as not to get into trouble." ”
Is King Ling thinking about her? Blue Baby was frightened by the idea that he suddenly came out of, and immediately vetoed it in his heart, no, no, no, this must be an illusion.
Probably she was really scared silly by herself, so she didn't notice the strange expression on King Ling's face.
"This king is tired, so you will keep vigil today." Jin Lingluo's gaze swept over the blue baby with a confused and nervous face, and walked inside.
Sure enough, he still couldn't escape the fate of the vigil.
The blue baby resigned herself to follow, and when she bypassed the screen with red sandalwood carving and hollowing, she saw that King Ling was already standing in front of the bed, waiting for her to come over and dress up.
Hey, the last time she kept a vigil, she also sighed that if the object was His Royal Highness King Ling, it would not be a loss.
I didn't expect her "wish" to come true so quickly, and now she not only has to keep vigil for King Ling, but also has to serve closely.
If his stepfather knew about it, he would be very happy.
Thinking about it like this, the blue baby suddenly had motivation.
In order to appease her father-in-law, in order to ensure Yu'er's development in the palace, she also has to work hard.
Jin Lingluo looked at the little eunuch who was still squirming outside the screen just now, and suddenly became active since he came in.
Not only did she dare to raise her head, but the soft little hands that untied his wide clothes occasionally crossed his skin with a thin shirt, as if with a little flirtatiousness.
Jin Lingluo's eyes suddenly became cold, and his body invisibly exuded a breathtaking aura, a little dangerous, a little terrifying.
The blue baby had just established a good mentality for himself, but in an instant, he collapsed because of his transformation.
In fact, she didn't mean to touch the other party, but it was the first time to give someone someone a wide coat, and she would inevitably feel nervous, and her movements were not skillful enough.
So Lan Baobao didn't know that Jin Lingluo had misunderstood, but he just felt that the temper of His Royal Highness King Ling was really strange.
There is no need to stand outside the door for tonight's vigil, His Highness told her to stay in the house, and he would call her when he needed to.
Baby Sblue went to extinguish the lights in the house one by one, and at last only the two floor-to-ceiling candlesticks closest to the door remained.
In the huge room, it instantly turned into a dim color, and the furnishings in the room could be faintly seen.
After sleeping for half a day in the afternoon, she was not sleepy at this time, but she was a little hungry.
I remember when I was in the study just now, there were snacks and tea on the round table next to me.
There are three plates of dim sum, and there are plenty of each, so it shouldn't matter if she eats a few. Even if His Highness was hungry in the middle of the night, the rest would be enough for him to eat.
Lan Baobao said "um" to himself, sat on the small bench at the door and waited for a cup of tea, and after estimating that King Ling had fallen asleep, he moved lightly into the study.
The light was even darker, and she walked extra carefully, lest she might make a noise when she touched something.
I finally moved to the table and took a few pieces of snacks, and when I was about to put them in my mouth, my eyes, which had adapted to the light here, inadvertently glanced at the wooden box on the bookcase.
It was placed there with a big thorn, and it was very tempting.
Lan Baobao didn't care much about it originally, but for some reason, after seeing the different performances of Feng Wei and Ling Wang, her curiosity was completely aroused.
King Ling said that this old case also involved officials in the court, what if this official had a relationship with his father-in-law? If she brings this news back, it will increase her father-in-law's trust in her, and she will have more say in it.
After some careful consideration, Baby Blue finally reached for the wooden box.
She told herself that it didn't matter, she only glanced at the contents of the letter, and as for what her stepfather should say and what she shouldn't say, she had her own weight in her heart.
He quickly took out the letter from the wooden box, and carefully folded it back to the door.
sat on the small bench again, solved the snack in his hand after dividing it by two, and wiped his hands with the hem of his clothes before opening the letter.
In the silent room, only the candles made a "crackling" sound from time to time, which made the already nervous Blue Baby even more flustered.
She looked at it at a glance and stumbled through it three or four times before she could read the dense traditional characters smoothly.
That's when she was really sure that the wooden box was really a major discovery.
Depending on the situation, this should be a secret letter from a certain official and a certain person, and the letter said that the two people were plotting to trap the assassin of Xucheng to embezzle taxes and enrich their own pockets.
The person who wrote the letter was very cautious, and there was no mention of anyone's last name on it, so it was difficult to tell who the two people who were colluding together were.
King Ling said that this was an old case, but he didn't know who won and who lost in this case back then, and whether the three people involved were still alive?
And is this case also related to the temple breaking case?
"I don't know if it's the real crime scene of the temple case, as long as this is determined, we may be able to find a breakthrough in the two cases." The blue baby whispered a few words to himself, and suddenly realized that he was still holding the letter, and he became nervous again.
She snuck into the study again, and was very afraid that King Ling would suddenly wake up and arrest her.
It wasn't until she put the letter back in the wooden box and heard that there was still no movement in the bedroom that she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took two more pastries, and sat down on the small bench again.
This time, she chewed and ate the pastry slowly, and by the way, she thought about the case again, and then suddenly realized that she was now in Youduwei, and she might not be assigned any errand tomorrow.
Even if she wants to send a message to her father-in-law, I'm afraid it won't be easy to get out, and it will be troublesome if someone finds out.
