Chapter 849: The Shadows

After listening to Ling Zhanyun's analysis, Mingyi's heart was even heavier, what she was worried about was not the poison in herself. Now that the person who poisoned her may be found, then there is a way to cure her poison. What she was worried about was that Wei Mo was also involved in the planning of Empress Dowager Guo's death, which meant that his position in the emperor's heart and the degree of trust were much higher than the outside world thought.

This is not a good thing for Wu Qianping. It was impossible for Wei Mo to fully trust him, not to mention, Wei Mo still had the handle of the Ministry of Works' account books.

"Wei Mo, since it's so powerful. Why are you trying to deal with my little woman? "Mingyi really thinks that this kind of thing is a bit too troublesome to take chronic poison.

"There are only two possibilities, one is that you are in the way, and the other is that you are afraid of you." Ling Zhanyun analyzed.

"I want to hear about it."

"The reason for taking chronic poison is because I want to cover up the people and methods of poisoning, and I don't want to be discovered by Wu Qianping. The Wei family still attaches great importance to this son-in-law. ”

Mingyi was a little uncomfortable and twisted his body.

Ling Zhanyun glanced at her: "Of course, Old Man Wei doesn't know, he is the old man's son-in-law." ”

Mingyi's face was hot, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Ling Zhanyun continued: "Wu Qianping is indeed the most prominent talent among the talents that have emerged over the years, and what is even more rare is that he has no family background and has not really been absorbed by any force. ”

"Oh? Both the DPRK and China think so? Mingyi raised her eyebrows, this was the first time she had heard others evaluate Wu Qianping.

"He was attached to the Cui family when he was young, but then he had a close relationship with Wei Ao and married the daughter of the Wei family, and now, Ling Fox also seems to appreciate him." Ling Zhanyun looked proud, "It's just that others don't know that there is a Lijing Gate behind him." What kind of creation is this, and what kind of painstaking solitude is how to achieve such a balanced situation. ”

"It's just that he suffered a lot when he was young, and he was more resolute and deeper than others." Mingyi also does not hide his pride.

"Strange goods can live, which is a good thing and a crisis. With so many boats, if you don't pay attention, you are in danger of drowning. Ling Zhanyun's expression became serious, "After all, he is young, and he thinks that he is well-designed, and in the eyes of the superiors, it is clear." ”

Ming Yi lowered his eyes and replied: "He didn't mean to step on multiple boats, it's just that some boats, if they didn't step on one foot, would have been pushed into the water a long time ago." He knew in his heart that there was only one right choice. ”

"Oh? Did he choose? Ling Zhanyun asked.

"He chose me, that is, he chose you, Grandpa. Like Grandpa, he is only loyal to the emperor and has no intention of fighting for power. "Mingyi arched his hand to the south.

Ling Zhanyun laughed: "That's good, I hope you don't mistake him." ”

After the two finished talking about Wu Qianping, they returned to the Wei family's poisoning.

"The Wei family is poisoning you because they want to get rid of you unknowingly. First, let Wei Shouyan completely defeat you, or you may be able to regain Wu Qianping's favor, so that he can help the Wei family regain their reputation. Second, if the Wei family was really the provider of the poison, they must have paid attention to the news of the survivors of the Gleaning Workshop after the fire in the Gleaning Workshop. You have been in the limelight this year, and you have become the leader of the Shangguan gang again, and you have reopened Shijingfang, and you have a wide range of contacts in the rivers and lakes. Wei Mo must be wary of you. Ling Zhanyun finished speaking in one breath and drank tea calmly.

Ming Yi nodded frequently, she had indeed been a little more high-profile this year. Unexpectedly, there were still people from the Wei family, eyeing them in the dark. She is not an ordinary woman, if she learns that the Wei family is related to the death of the Empress Dowager Guo, and this matter is implicated in the burning of the Shijingfang, it may indeed be unfavorable to the Wei family. What's more, Wei Mo is very likely to not know Feng Sihai's identity, so the Wei family is related to Feng Mingyi's revenge for killing his father, and he needs to be afraid of her even more.

"Since I roughly know that it is the poison made by Wei Mo's concubine, if I find her, will I be saved?" Mingyi ignited hope.

Ling Zhanyun nodded: "This matter will be handed over to Grandpa." ”

Ming Yi is really grateful to Ling Zhanyun this time, and he is very likely to be the life-saving benefactor of Wu Qianping and himself at the same time. She smiled and poured tea for Ling Zhanyun, and called Grandpa more kindly than ever.

Coming out of the wine shop, a few steps away, Xinglu Courtyard.

She has something to confirm with Ayara. It just so happens that now that the temple is closed, Ayara should be idle.

Xingluyuan closed the door, knocked for a long time, and the door creaked open. At first glance, it was still Ling'er.

Ming Yiqi said: "Why didn't Lady Aya Luo give you a leave to go home?" ”

Ling'er pulled a face and put it in a modern tone, which was a world-weary tone: "I have no father or mother, my brother is ashamed of me, it's better not to go back." ”

Ming Yi touched Ling'er's head, although she was already a senior girl in Xinglu Academy, she was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and her appearance made people sigh.

Ling'er seemed to see the meaning in Mingyi's gentle eyes, and said, "It's the most reassuring to stay in Xinglu Courtyard, it's better than anywhere." ”

Mingyi nodded, indeed, Ayara will not let them laugh, nor will they lack food and clothing, compared to the troubled times outside, this place is really good enough.

Aya Luo heard the voices of the two of them, and looked down from upstairs, probably these days have been idle, used to getting up, and still sleeping. Make a gesture to make Mingyi speak quietly, and go up to speak.

"They haven't gotten up yet, let them have a good rest." Ayara suppressed her voice and dragged Ming Yi into the room.

Mingyi knew that she was talking about Chang'an Liumei, and it seemed that she had an appointment yesterday. Thinking about it, they were all poor women, and sighed softly.

Ayara put her bun back down and combed it, and Mingyi naturally walked over to help her.

"If you don't come, I want to go to you too." Ayara tied her hair and turned her head with a worried expression.

"What? Did Wei Ao come here? Mingyi asked, "Is he so breathless?" ”

He sent someone to ask, but he didn't say anything. Zhi said that if I have difficulties, I can go to Jingzhao Yin Yamen to find him. He seems to want to spend time with us. Ayara replied, "I'm worried about something else. ”

Mingyi sat down and listened intently to her.

"The day before yesterday, Liumei went to the appointment, and a wealthy businessman surnamed You came to invite him. When I came back yesterday, they all knelt down in front of me, crying, and said that they would rather pick up customers in Xinglu Courtyard every day than go to the man's house again. Ayara looked solemn.

"What? What happened? Mingyi's heart sank, and he already had a premonition.

Aya Luo sighed: "I also asked so, and said that Chang'an Liumei in our Xinglu Courtyard is not something that others can bully, if there is any grievance, say it, and my mother will seek justice for them." He took them off their shirts, and their backs were covered with whip marks. ”

Ming Yi remembered the insult that Ming Niangzi had received at the beginning, and his teeth itched with hatred: "It's someone from the Shence Army, right?" ”

Ayara looked at her in amazement: "Exactly, how do you know?" ”

"Who would be so mad except those eunuchs!" Mingyi snorted.

Ayara lowered his head: "But you and I both know that none of us can afford to provoke the Divine Army." ”
