Chapter 90

Mo Shuoyue was so focused on the case that she didn't pay attention to this tacit understanding that often appeared between the two, she just frowned slightly and asked, "I have a question, why did you paint such a picture when you were young?" What exactly is the moral of these three paintings? ”

"Because of my mother."

Li Yunmin poured himself a cup of tea, he held the tea cup with his slender three fingers, paused for a while, and then said slowly: "When my mother was in a trance before her death, I asked me to draw the situation in her dream for her." But after sobering up, he destroyed the painting with his own hands. It's just that I'm old, and when I didn't see this painting, I didn't think about it - Lin Miaoniang has a great relationship with the people in the inner palace. ”

Mo Shuoyue suddenly understood why this painting was in such a form, it turned out that it was destroyed after the painting was completed.

It's just that her heart is on the case, but she ignores the inexplicable feelings in her heart, listening to Li Yunmin's words, she only thinks that the Stygian Grass comes from the inner palace, but she forgets for a while that the appearance of this painting in Lin Miaoniang's house is the key.

Her fingers unconsciously tapped a few times, making an extremely slight "click" sound, and she muttered for a moment, saying:

"It's rare to get it from the palace, and it's not surprising. If you dare to poison a dignified son, you can still succeed. After succeeding, it is this kind of poison that seems serious, but it will not immediately endanger life, only these two points look at it, it does not look like it was done by the enemy. If it is an enemy, since they can all succeed, how can there be any leeway? ”

Li Yunmin listened to her voice in his ear, but his eyes were looking at her lightly tapping a few fingers for a moment, this familiar action made the corners of his lips slightly raise an arc imperceptibly.

This action was a habit that he unconsciously brought out when thinking about things, but when she first met Mo Shuo, she didn't have such a subconscious little habit.

Human reason will always restrain many real emotions, but subconscious actions will not.

He saw Mo Shuoyue bowing her head slightly in contemplation, so he didn't interrupt her thoughts, just drank tea and waited patiently for her next step.

Mo Shuoyue's eyes kept falling on the painting, and she didn't even raise her eyes, so naturally she couldn't see Li Yunmin's soft and gentle smile at the moment, and she didn't know his state of mind at this time. Just follow your own train of thought and continue to analyze:

"And as far as I know, Prince Duanping has always ignored government affairs, and rarely has quarrels with people, and there will be no enemies in the court or among the people who have to put him to death. Since there is no reason to hate it, ordinary people don't have to take such a big risk, but they are under such a phantom grass that is not immediately life-threatening. Based on the above three points, I think this is more like a means of the harem - and it is not possible to do it unless you are in a high position. ”

Li Yunmin nodded silently, agreed, pondered for a while, and said: "A country woman, even if there are strange goods, if there is no one to build a bridge, I am afraid that she will not even be able to touch the door of Duanping Palace." It can be seen that borrowing Lin Miaoniang to send spices to Duanping Wangfu is just a pretense, and the key lies in the internal mechanism operation of Duanping Wangfu. Such a meticulous and unnoticed arrangement is indeed not something ordinary people can do. ”

The procurement of the royal government is cumbersome, and it takes half a month just to declare the funds, and all the approvals have to be completed. Especially for the things at the entrance, it is even more cautious, and the source will add an on-site inspection, which will take a longer time. In addition, there will be a specific person who buys it on a fixed basis, and there is no need for the person in the kitchen to contact the supplier directly.

Thinking about it this way, the designation of Lin Miaoniang to deliver the goods directly to Cui Chuniang's hands seems to be a flaw in the internal mechanism on the surface, but in fact it is the cleverness of the person who laid it out - if the matter is revealed, Lin Miaoniang and Cui Chuniang are the best scapegoats, and they can be easily fooled by simply accepting this crime with private confessions, and it is difficult to trace back to the source.

After all, Mo Shuoyue has been in the Gongjing Palace, and the rules of the palace are not very clear, but some of the basic operating models in the palace can still be understood.

Duanping Wangfu and Gongjing Wangfu are considered to be at the same level, and the internal operation model is similar.

"Who does the prince think instructed this matter?" Mo Shuoyue asked.

"Whoever benefits is instructed by whom." Li Yunmin said casually, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips.

I want you to say! Mo Shuoyue resisted the urge to give him a roll of the eyes, but she still couldn't help glaring at the person opposite. The latter frowned slightly, with a hint of innocence in his eyes: "Am I not right?" ”

"Yes, what's wrong." It's just nonsense.

The last sentence Mo Shuoyue was too lazy to say, and she didn't want to be angry, so she had to pick up the snack in front of her to block her mouth, and eat slowly, Li Yunmin poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of her, Mo Shuoyue picked it up and drank it very easily, then put it down and pushed it back, signaling Li Yunmin to continue.

The atmosphere between the two is very relaxed and tacit, but I am afraid that such a situation will fall in the eyes of others, and I will be very surprised - after all, in ancient times, such things were clearly opposite.

Maybe Mo Shuoyue didn't know, or maybe she didn't want to admit that she had long been so casual in front of this person, how could there be any distinction between dignity and inferiority?

Li Yunmin poured the tea and said slowly:

"In the harem, all the eyeliner is under the control of Queen Xiao, and the only one who can compete with it is Concubine Wang Xian. Therefore, these two people are the most likely to start. ”

Mo Shuoyue was silent for a while, and asked puzzledly: "Then what will this motive be?" ”

Li Yunmin's gaze fell on the third ink group on the painting again, thoughtfully, "If it is really one of these two people, then their motive has one thing in common - to disturb the elder brother's choice of concubine." ”

"Queen Xiao doesn't want King Duanping to marry a concubine again, I can still understand a thing or two, after all, knowing a son is like a mother, I'm afraid she has already seen that King Duanping likes Wang Surong, and chooses a concubine again, worried that King Duanping will choose the daughter of the Wang family again, but if it is Concubine Wang Xian...... And why? When the daughter of the Wang family enters the palace, she is harmless to the Wang family. ”

Li Yunmin was silent for a moment and said: "The reason for this is only known if you go back to the root." ”

Mo Shuoyue was silent, seeing that the mystery in the painting had been solved, she slowly rolled up the scroll and put it on the case, after all, it was an important physical evidence, if you accidentally got the tea, I was afraid that it would be completely dirty, and I would not be able to identify the content of the painting.

"But then again. This is really a mistake, which is exactly the purpose of Duanping Wangye. In this way......"

Halfway through her words, she suddenly realized that something was wrong, and glanced at Li Yunmin, both of whom were stunned, and saw a little clarity in each other's eyes.

"Could it be, Stygian Grass...... Did you give it to yourself? No......" Mo Shuoyue muttered to herself.
