Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Hundred-legged Insect Is Hard to Die

Mu Rui's words made Ling Jun hesitate slightly.

He has ordered people to clean up the place where the crime occurred and bury the dead people far away.

Yu Li, Mu Rui, a person who can't collect clues from the place where the crime occurred, is impossible, and it is the one who finds out the matter to this extent.

But Mu Rui did it.

To be precise, not only did it happen, but also deduced the two parties involved in it through this "meager news".

With such a mind, tsk, it is no wonder that the people in the big courtyard of the Qianguo Mansion can be played by him, a person who is in a disadvantaged situation.

"Go on."

Ling Jun nodded and motioned for Mu Rui to continue.

He knew that the reason why Mu Rui chose to pause here was to observe his reaction, in order to confirm his guessed conclusions.

"In the land of Gyeonggi, foreign ministers cannot come without an edict."

"Even if people can dress up and mix in in batches, the war horses are too conspicuous."

"It can be seen that in the Royal Forest Army, there must be someone involved, and the worst must be a captain."

"Now, although there is still no evidence to show that the person involved was instructed by the one to investigate, it is not difficult."

"And Ningxia over there...... Rui heard that the Shen family once had a cousin, because of the order of her parents, married to his young master as his wife, married for a few years, before the birth of an heir, she was poisoned by the concubine, died, and the Shen family, and therefore cut off trade with Ningxia......"

"Rui guesses that this looting should be inseparable from Ningxia, as for whether it is revenge or a side cause, it is not known."

Mu Rui's analysis can be described as wonderful.

Moreover, it was extremely close to the truth of the incident, so that Ling Jun, who already knew what had happened, couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

It's one thing to be amazed, it's another thing to "accept".

Ling Jun pursed her lips, pretended to be surprised and looked at Mu Rui, frowned, and slowly tightened it.

"How sure is this speculation credible?"

"Pondering" for a moment, Lingjun's lips fluttered, as if it was quite unacceptable, Mu Rui analyzed this possibility.

His acting skills are not bad, so that anyone can see that he has been hit and doesn't know what to do, "I mean, the people in the Royal Forest Army were instructed by their father......"

"Seventy percent."

"No, ninety percent."

Mu Rui first said a probability, but after saying it, he seemed to suddenly think of something important that could overturn his guess, and hurriedly changed his words.

"Since the ancestor sent the capital Yanjing, the Imperial Forest Army has the iron law of resting in the moon and returning to the city in the moon.

"On the day when the princess's wedding convoy was robbed, it was already the beginning of the month."

"The Imperial Forest Army is one person and one horse, and it is not an edict or a replacement, or a death, that is to say, without that permission, it is impossible for so many war horses to stay outside the city."

"Has Your Highness heard that there have been people beheaded in the past few days at the entrance of the vegetable market?"

Mu Rui's eyes slowly narrowed into a slit, and the corners of his lips slowly rose.

People who know Mu Rui, except for those who can never speak, know very well that he will become extremely dangerous when he squints.

As before, he would talk and laugh with people or continue to hold his head, and let his bullies kick and abuse him.

Rarely, a creepy smile is also revealed.

If he smiles after squinting his eyes, it means that the person who has displeased him will soon lose what he cares about most and die of despair.

"No, I didn't."

Ling Jun pinched the hand of the cup and slowly clenched it.

His father.

The person who disappointed him countless times and still chose to forgive countless times, tsk, although he already knew the truth, but this kind of thing, every time he thought about it, it made him ......

This time, he won't forgive again.

To be exact, since the moment he returned the wrench, he no longer regarded Emperor Longqing as his father!

"Rui hasn't heard of it."

Mu Rui said as he played with the few human bone dice he had pinched in his hand just now.

No one was beheaded for late return.

Although there was news from the palace before, Emperor Longqing was so angry that he couldn't even listen to the government in the upper court, except for a mediocre-looking Li family to serve beside him, and even other mothers were estranged, but in the past few days, the ministers handed over the fold of asking for "grace" for their children and grandchildren, but they were all answered.

Although Li's mother is expensive by virtue of her sons, because she gave birth to two sons to Emperor Longqing, she was awarded the title of concubine, but it is impossible to erase the fact that she was born in the capital, her mother is weak, and she is timid and cowardly.

She shouldn't have the courage to carry Emperor Longqing behind her back and reply to the ministers' folds, even if Emperor Longqing is unconscious, Father-in-law Maizi, who is an errand boy by Emperor Longqing's side, will never give her the opportunity to "interfere in politics".

He had to get a reply as soon as possible and compare it with Emperor Longqing's previous imperial approval before he could continue to speculate.

After all, the inside story of the palace is related to the success or failure of their strategy, and the slightest sloppiness will make them walk their children tied to a rope and grasshoppers, and there is no place to bury them.

"Your Highness, is there a handwritten letter from Your Majesty? Rui needs to confirm some of his guesses......"

Mu Rui hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to ask Ling Jun for a letter for comparison.

He doesn't like to be gullible.

But this time, he intends to set a precedent.

"If what you want to confirm is the truth of his condition, I can tell you the conclusion."

"Pretended."

Ling Jun's jaw raised slightly, and he glanced at Mu Rui, who was sitting opposite him, with crooked eyebrows.

Suddenly, I couldn't help it and laughed with him.

This Mu Rui, as Liu Qingxin said, will be a fun guy who can be useful to him, and he didn't find this piece of "beautiful jade" early, which is really his big mistake!

"Is there any basis for His Royal Highness's words?"

Mu Rui, who didn't expect Lingjun to suddenly show such an expression, was stunned for a moment.

However, after just a breath, he regained his composure.

This is the person chosen by the interesting lady.

If there is nothing extraordinary, how can you get this honor?

Mu Rui persuaded himself like this in his heart.

"Which emperor have you seen, who is seriously ill and bedridden, and will die soon, and he is not in a hurry to summon his close ministers to make an edict in case of emergency?"

Ling Jun shrugged his shoulders with a smile, picked up the iron kettle on the charcoal stove, added half a cup of white water to the cup in front of him, which had been vacant for a long time, and added some tea soup to the cup in front of Mu Rui that would feel bitter just by smelling.

"If you fight a snake, you will not die, but you will suffer from it."

"Regardless of whether Your Majesty has an edict or not, some people, as long as they live, are ......"

Mu Rui nodded lightly, picked up the tea that Ling Jun added to him, took a small sip unhurriedly, and then slowly stretched out the thumb of his right hand, making the nails to his neck, and made a truncated gesture, "If His Royal Highness cares about brotherhood and can't bear to make a move, Rui, I am willing to share my worries for you." ”
