Chapter Fifty-Nine: Dying
Night.
Nie Jingyang evaded the guards in the palace and came to the window of the Xuanguo Duke and his wife.
Learned three cuckoo calls.
Xuan Guogong and his wife glanced at each other, and immediately beckoned the maids in the room to go down.
After Nie Jingyang saw that everyone was gone, he entered the room.
"Father, did you leave an emergency contact code?"
Nie Jingyang was investigating the soldiers on the list of transporting grain and grass, but he didn't expect to find the secret message left by Xuanguo Gong, so he rushed back to Xuanguo Mansion overnight.
"Ma'am."
Xuan Guogong shouted, and Mrs. Zhao immediately got up and went out.
"Father? There is something that even my mother has to hide. Nie Jingyang waited until Mrs. Zhao left, and asked puzzledly.
Xuanguo Gong Nie Ji coldly shrugged him and snorted.
"I don't want your mother to know, because I don't want your mother to worry, you don't know."
"How could you not know? Father and mother are deeply in love, and the father doesn't let the mother listen, it must be for the mother's good, but the father is also worried about his son being killed once. โ
He was busy investigating the list outside, and he was already dizzy, so what did he have to do to go home?
"This matter is about your daughter-in-law, do you think the list of grain and grass is important, or is your daughter-in-law's matter important?"
Nie Jingyang's body was stunned, with a look of worry in his eyes.
"Daughter-in-law? You're talking about Lu Qingrong, what's wrong with her? โ
Xuan Guogong looked at Nie Jingyang's worried look, and finally felt a little comforted in his heart.
So I told him the results of the investigation.
Nie Jingyang's face is like a color palette, very good-looking.
Unexpectedly, the person who shot that night turned out to be a dead soldier.
"Father, when I was investigating the case of Beidi Grain and Grass, I found something that may have something to do with Qingrong."
"What's the matter?"
"Before the Beidi Grain and Grass case, there were people from the capital who went to Jiangnan."
Xuan Guogong was stunned for a moment and motioned for him to continue.
"The other party found Jiang Cheng, the richest man in Jiangnan, and tried to persuade him to confiscate half of his family property as the country's salary, but Jiang Cheng refused."
After listening to it for a long time, Xuan Guogong didn't hear what this matter had to do with Lu Qingrong, "What does this have to do with Qingrong?" โ
"Father, this Jiang Cheng is Qingrong's maternal grandfather, now he is over fifty years old, Jiang Cheng has only one daughter in his life, he loves him very much, that daughter is Qingrong's mother, married to the second master of the Lu family."
"Father, if there is no problem with Qingrong, will the dead man have something to do with the Jiang family?"
Xuan Guogong didn't think about Lu Qingrong's foreign family.
That's a clue.
"I'll investigate this matter, how are you investigating the grain and grass case?"
"Father, I've already investigated half of the people on the list, and the problem should be in the back of the list."
Xuan Guogong nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly there was a bit of ridicule on his face, "What did you say last time you saved Qingrong?" โ
A smirk appeared on Nie Jingyang's face, "Father, didn't you say anything?" What's wrong? โ
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, he also came from that time, Nie Jingyang's appearance is obviously the beginning of love.
"Find a chance to tell Qingrong your identity, I see that her face is not very good when she mentions you, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that when you come back, Qingrong will be extremely disgusted with you, and then you still want to go to someone's bed."
Although Nie Jingyang is nineteen years old, he has never experienced anything between men and women.
But haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?
Naturally, he understood Nie Ji's words, "Father, I will find an opportunity to talk to Qingrong." โ
Xuan Guogong looked at Nie Jingyang's twisted appearance, and his face was a little cold.
What like his son! He didn't have that when he was younger.
"Alright, there's nothing going on here, you can go first."
"Father, I'll go first."
Saying that, Nie Jingyang left the window embarrassedly.
But he did not leave the Xuanguo Mansion, but crossed a few walls and came to the courtyard where Lu Qingrong was.
ใSummer Palaceใ
Father has agreed that he will tell Lu Qingrong his identity, and now he still has to check the list, and he doesn't know who it is next time he comes back, so it is better to make it clear at one time.
Stepping into the [Summer Palace], Nie Jingyang found that the lights in the courtyard had been extinguished, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep.
Nie Jingyang sighed, didn't want to disturb Lu Qingrong's rest, and turned around.
Suddenly, I heard a noise, and I thought it was a guard, so I pressed my whole body against the wall.
However, he soon discovered that it was not the guard, but a little maid.
The little maid was sneaky, as if she was holding something in her arms, and walked towards Lu Qingrong's bedroom.
Nie Jingyang's mind moved, and he followed.
The little maid looked around, took out a lock, locked the door, and then locked the window.
What does this little girl want to do?
Nie Jingyang was puzzled, but it could be seen from her behavior that she definitely had bad intentions.
Nie Jingyang carefully probed and found that there were no night watchmen around.
Isn't Mama Gui already in the [Summer Palace], how could she be so negligent?
And where did Nie Shen go?
Nie Jingyang was originally about to step forward, but he felt that there was a problem and hid it again.
The sneaky girl looked around again, took out the fire fold from her sleeve, blew it, and suddenly there was a sporadic fire.
It seems that she is preparing to set fire.
At this time, Nie Jingyang found a black figure on the roof, his eyesight has always been amazing, and he recognized the person in the dark as Nie Shen at a glance.
Since Nie Shen is here, there is no need for him to step forward.
Just as the little maid was about to put down the fire fold, Nie Shen suddenly jumped down from the beam and grabbed the fire fold in her hand.
The fire fell to the ground, bounced a few times, and then went out.
The little girl didn't expect to be caught and wanted to run.
Nie Shen directly clasped the little maid's arm behind his back and pressed her against the wall, and the little maid screamed.
At this time, a cry for help suddenly came from Lu Qingrong's bedroom, "Help!" โ
"Not good!"
Nie Jingyang secretly screamed, and before Nie Shen could react, Nie Jingyang had already rushed in.
There was a thud and a thud scurrying in through the nearest window.
I saw Lu Qingrong fall straight to the ground, and he couldn't see clearly.
Nie Jingyang stepped forward to help her up, without waiting for his hand to touch her body.
A cyan thing suddenly flashed in front of him, Nie Jingyang's eyes changed greatly, he took out the dagger on his waist and slashed it.
Is it a poisonous snake?
Nie Jingyang's gaze didn't stay on the poisonous snake's body for too long, and instead began to check on Lu Qingrong's body.
