Chapter 59: Reversal
At the gate of the Criminal Department, after the smoke cleared, Luo Qingzhi looked at the street in the dark night, and there was no trace of it.
"It's good that I've been prepared." After Luo Chen finished speaking, he whistled, and a yellow dog ran out of the alley.
Luo Qingzhi commanded, "Go after it."
Luo Chen nodded, led the yellow dog and ran into the night.
Meng Feng said, "Do you need the lower official to escort the county lord back to his house?"
"No," Luo Qingzhi shook her head and said, "Commander Meng will return to the palace to restore his life."
"Yes."
Luo Qingzhi was about to leave, when a spring rain came one after another, she had to stop in place, looking at the sparse rain, she remembered the conversation between Gao Yan and herself last night.
"Ah Luo, my life is short, and I need you to protect this world."
Luo Qingzhi looked at the wandering figure of the forbidden army outside the house, and Gao Yan immediately explained, "Haven't you found it yet?"
"Found what?" Luo Qingzhi asked rhetorically.
"These two pairs of Janitarian centaurs are my Deadpool, and they're deaf and dumb."
Gao Yan's voice was very soft, but Luo Qingzhi listened to it sincerely, although she had known that the emperors of the past dynasties would raise Deadpool for themselves, but she never knew that it was actually in this way that they could not tell the secret.
Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Yan, whose face was pale, and said, "I'll write a letter right away and let Zhixin come back."
Gao Yan shook his head, "It's useless, the valley master of the Medicine King Valley has already seen me last year."
Although Luo Qingzhi was skeptical, she continued to ask, "What is the reason?"
"Poisoning."
Luo Qingzhi sighed deeply, "I know that the previous Tai Hospital Ling was good at detoxifying strange poisons, I will look for him, and I will find him in all parts of the world."
"No," Gao Yan stopped, saying, "You can't leave the capital, I need you to help me cultivate an heir in the capital."
Luo Qingzhi was a little angry, "Your Majesty, what are the people of the Jin family like, don't you know, do you really want such a person to ascend to the throne?"
Gao Yan asked rhetorically, "The people of the Jin family are not suitable, so ...... Who is it for?"
Luo Qingzhi did not answer.
Gao Yan continued to ask, "Ah Luo thinks that Gao Zhen is more suitable, right?"
Gao Yan's question was already pressing in front of her, Luo Qingzhi couldn't avoid it, she could only say lightly, "Now he is not suitable."
"Arlo!"
The shouting brought Luo Qingzhi back to her senses, she raised her head, Gao Zhen held an umbrella, and hurriedly ran towards her.
She looked at Gao Zhen, thinking about her answer last night.
"He is not suitable for now, but no one can say what will happen in the future."
Gao Zhen had already come to her, raised the umbrella above her head, and asked eagerly, "Are you okay?"
Luo Qingzhi shook her head.
Gao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ah Luo, go home."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "Hmm."
The raindrops hit the umbrella surface, and the sound was high and low, like the beat of a drum, hitting people's hearts.
Gao Zhen leaned the umbrella towards Luo Qingzhi and asked, "Ah Luo, you have already discussed this matter with Your Majesty, right?"
Luo Qingzhi was still thinking about what happened last night, and she didn't notice that Gao Zhen's mood was wrong for the first time, but hummed silently.
Gao Zhen said lightly, "Your Majesty really trusts Ah Luo the most."
"Hmm." Luo Qingzhi replied unconsciously again.
Gao Zhen noticed Luo Qingzhi's distraction, and stopped talking, and the two of them walked back to the county lord's mansion silently.
Luo Qingzhi was puzzled in her heart, she didn't know who poisoned Gao Yan, why did she poison her?
She thought, "The Jin family is powerful, but because of this, Gao Yan has the greatest defense against them, and it is not easy to succeed, and other forces are not ......
Luo Qingzhi couldn't think of anyone who would assassinate Gao Yan, what she was most worried about was that there was something in Jinling that she didn't know about at all.
Luo Qingzhi, who was deep in thought, completely ignored Gao Zhen's eyes, so she wouldn't know that Gao Zhen was full of eyes
Only her.
Back at the county lord's mansion, Fan Li and Qin Shu greeted him at the door.
Luo Qingzhi looked at the concerned eyes of the two, explained, and said, "It's okay, I'm fine."
"Let's go back to the study." Luo Qingzhi said.
Coming to the study, Luo Qingzhi looked at Gao Zhen and was a little hesitant to let him know about Gao Yan.
Gao Zhen noticed her eyes, looked at her, and asked, "I, do you want to go out?"
Luo Qingzhi immediately shook her head, "No."
"Last night, His Majesty told me something." Luo Qingzhi began to talk about last night's events.
Everyone present was surprised to varying degrees after learning that Gao Yan's life was not long in coming.
Fan Li was the first to speak, "Your Majesty shouldn't lie about such a thing."
Qin Shu said, "If the courtiers knew the news, I wouldn't dare to imagine what would happen."
Luo Qingzhi said: "Your Majesty will naturally not let such news leak out, but the problem now is that Your Majesty himself does not know who the poisoner is."
"Since there is no news yet, it means that the person who poisoned him may not know that he has succeeded." Fan Li analyzed.
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "Mr. is right."
Qin Shu shook his head, "I really know what a wave of unsettled waves is, and a wave of unsettled."
"Anyway, let's settle the matter at hand." Luo Qingzhi said.
Qin Shu asked, "Is Lord Xia's matter clear?"
Luo Qingzhi looked at the door, "It will be clear when Luo Chen comes back."
"So." Qin Shu asked, "Where is Lord Baili Han?"
Luo Qingzhi said, "Yang Shen found some signs."
She took out a seal from her arms, which was also engraved with the word Baili Han.
Gao Zhen touched the seal in his arms and took it out.
The two are almost identical.
Luo Qingzhi explained: "Lord Yang followed the clues of the seal and found a seal workshop in the west of the city, and knew that someone had carved this seal a year ago."
"Who is the one who carved it?" Qin Shu asked.
"The shopkeeper said, "The man is masked, but he has a generous hand." Luo Qingzhi said.
Hurried footsteps were heard, and everyone in the room looked at the door.
Luo Chen walked in, and subconsciously panicked at the eyes of several people.
"What? All look at me."
Luo Qingzhi asked, "How is it?"
Luo Chen replied, "Li Shen hid in the Guozi Prison."
"Guozijian?" Qin Shu was a little surprised, "I thought it was the Jin family."
"That's it." Luo Qingzhi said, watching everyone continue to explain, "The shopkeeper doesn't know who the buyer is, but the seal was damaged half a year ago, and the buyer took it to repair it, because the seal was engraved with the words "Baili Han".
Gao Zhen, who had never spoken, spoke, "There are so many people in the country, how can we be sure who it is?"
Luo Chen explained: "I sprinkled a special medicinal powder on Li Shen, and the greyhounds in my hands can smell it, and tomorrow I only need to take rhubarb to Guozijian for a walk."
"It's not enough." Luo Qingzhi commanded, "Tomorrow, I will take Xia Ji to the Guozijian together."
Gao Zhen said, "What should I do with the secret passage I found in Si Ye's room?"
Luo Qingzhi said, "They were originally set up for you to find out."
"Why?"
Luo Qingzhi explained: "They know that you went to the Guozijian to investigate the Xia case, and they wanted you to discover the secret passage, find those students, and then let me take someone to investigate, and finally, those students who were prepared in advance bit me on the spot, as long as they said that I instructed me, then Your Majesty will definitely let me put down this case for the time being in order to protect me."
"But." Luo Qingzhi paused, "Zhou Jin found out something, and wanted you to stay away from this matter, so he chose ......
Luo Qingzhi didn't explain the rest of the things, and Gao Zhen had already nodded knowingly.
Luo Qingzhi also skipped this link.
"However, they didn't expect that I would protect you, so they will plan and let Your Majesty trap me."
Gao Zhen knew what was going on and said, "Therefore, Your Majesty and you will also be calculated."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "If they don't feel that His Majesty is really disgusted with me, they won't do it."
Qin Shu shook his head, "It's really complicated, they did so many things, just to pull Xia Ji down?"
"At first, I thought that they were dissatisfied because the examiner of the imperial examination had chosen a poor family, and they wanted to use this to warn Your Majesty." Luo Qingzhi said.
"Isn't it?" Luo Chen asked rhetorically.
Luo Qingzhi picked up the Baili Han seal, "With this seal, perhaps, their target is uncle?"
"But." Luo Qingzhi overturned her thoughts again, "This alone can't prove anything...... As long as you find the person who engraved the seal, your uncle will be innocent."
Luo Chen was a little worried, and asked, "We will only go to pick up people tomorrow, will it be too slow, what if they run away?"
"I still want them to run, they don't move, and I never know why they do it." Luo Qingzhi said.
Luo Chen said, "I'm still not at ease, master, I'd better go and guard the country in person."
"Okay."
Qin Shu also opened his mouth and asked him to go with him.
Luo Qingzhi shook her head, "You go to the Medicine King Valley and bring Zhixin back."
"However, if I leave, there will only be Luo Chen by your side, master." Qin Shu was not at ease.
"Meng Feng is now deployed by me, you don't have to worry." Luo Qingzhi said.
Gao Zhen also said, "I'm still here, don't worry."
Luo Chen and Qin Shu left one after another.
Fan Li asked, "Is there no news from Feng Zinan?" It's been long enough."
"He sent a message the day before yesterday, saying that he had a little eyebrows." Luo Qingzhi said.
Fan Li sighed slightly, "Ah Luo, don't take it too seriously, you've heard a lot of news like this over the years."
"I understand." Luo Qingzhi said softly, "Sir, it's not early, you go and rest, they have the rest of the matter."
After Fan Li left, only Luo Qingzhi and Gao Zhen were left in the study.
Luo Qingzhi was still thinking about the motive behind it, and Gao Zhen wanted to open his mouth several times, but swallowed it back.
"What do you want to ask?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
「......」
Gao Zhen said, "Why didn't Ah Luo tell me about your and Your Majesty's plan?"
"There are also a lot of eyeliner in the palace, and Your Majesty is worried about leaking the news." Luo Qingzhi explained.
Gao Zhen sighed, "I'm worried about Ah Luo, and after knowing that you were imprisoned in the Criminal Department, I was even more worried."
Luo Qingzhi explained gently: "I, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it's just that this matter is complicated."
Gao Zhen nodded, "I understand, as long as Ah Luo is okay, everything is not important."
