Chapter 128 Speculation (2)

Ruyi Palace

Wen Yanyu looked at the gray pigeon in the sky and merged with the night before retracting her gaze. Haitang whispered behind her, "Empress, Liu is here."

"Let her wait in the side hall for a while." Wen Yanyu straightened the Bu Yao on her head and walked towards the side hall with Haitang's hand.

Liu Concubine Liu Lingzhi sat carefully on the chair and waited for Wen Yanyu. When she saw her coming in, she immediately stood up. The Madam Yuan behind her hurriedly supported her and gave Wen Yanyu a big gift.

"Get up." Wen Yanyu looked at Liu Lingzhi's timid look and contempt flashed in her eyes. What is the difference between such a timid and afraid person and a waste? No wonder even if she gave birth to a prince, she is still a concubine now. The emperor is afraid that he doesn't even remember what she looks like.

"Why didn't Cailing accompany him today?"

"When I say to the Empress, Caiqin's stomach was damaged, and I'm sorry, I'm going to let her rest in the house."

"Well, Liu Pin, do you know why I asked you here so late?"

"I... I don't know, I hope the Empress will give me some advice."

Liu Lingzhi did not dare to look up from beginning to end, and her aggrieved look made Wen Yanyu feel a little disgusted.

"Okay, get up and sit down, don't show off here, who can you show me?"

Liu Lingzhi's body trembled instantly, as if she was about to faint from the next moment.

Madam Yuan hurriedly went to pull Liu Lingzhi, "Thank you for your kindness, Empress Liu, get up quickly."

Liu Lingzhi was almost pulled to the seat by Madam Yuan. Her face was pale and her eyes were wet. Her already thin cheeks were even more sunken due to timidity. She looked like a person who had not recovered from a long time. Her posture in this magnificent palace was even more humble than that of Haitang.

Wen Yanyu looked at Liu Lingzhi's look of fainting at any time, swallowed the words of Madam Yuan in her stomach and said to Liu Lingzhi with arrogance, "It's nothing big to ask you to come tonight. The emperor has been ill for several days. The palace servant was on the couch and accidentally found a string of wooden beads and bracelets that the emperor carried with him on weekdays disappeared. Liu Peng is also an old man in the palace. Have you ever seen that string of beads?"

Liu Lingzhi's face turned pale again, her chin was so low that it was almost close to her chest, and she replied in a wandering voice, "I have never seen you."

Wen Yanyu covered the cup lid with a "slap", and Liu Lingzhi was shocked and almost jumped up.

"Forget it, I can't tell you anything, so I come back and ask the wise king if he has seen it. If he found the bead, come and report it quickly and go down."

Liu Lingzhi bowed in fear and fear, and half leaned against Madam Yuan and retreated weakly.

"Empress, why did you tell Liu Pin Liu what Eunuch Du said?"

Haitang took the teacup from Wen Yanyu's hand and wiped the water stains on her hand.

Wen Yanyu looked arrogantly at the back that was about to fall when the wind blew and disappeared at the door of Ruyi Palace, and sneered, "Although the wise king is obedient to my son now, he must be cautious. The wise king is not as easy to control as Liu. I mentioned Liu to warn the wise king that if he dared to have a strange intention, I would definitely make Liu look good. At the same time, I also want to test the wise king to see if that thing is with him."

"But the emperor suddenly became ill. He should not give such an important thing as a military talisman to others at will. The emperor has never liked the wise king. Even the wise king has very few opportunities to meet the emperor. Even if he wants to give it, he should give it to the King of Jin."

"I have also suspected this way, but Du Yuanshan said that Zhao Yawei slapped him that day to ask about this matter. I think it would be possible that the imperial concubine, who has always claimed to be a wise man, should not be false, and she should not know where the military talisman is. Now I think it is very likely that the emperor hid it."

"Didn't the emperor never take it off?"

"The emperor's scheming is beyond your ability to guess, or it is possible that the emperor has always trusted him very much."

"Master Wen? No wonder he deliberately wanted to escape. But the Empress, the will to let Dao Cheng leave the palace was given by the Imperial Concubine. If it was really in Dao Cheng, why didn't he hand it over to the Imperial Concubine? In order to seek protection."

"He is not stupid. As long as the military talisman is in his hands, even if he has a gold medal for death, why bother to suppress his hope on others? What's more, he wants to go out of the palace to find the child."

"As long as you are not with the Imperial Concubine, the Empress can be more at ease."

"Don't worry? Wen Heng hasn't found it for a day, and I can't rest for a day. No matter whether the thing is there or not, people must find it for me. Also, Du Yuanshan, you can send some good things to others, and birds will die for food and people will die for money. A eunuch, what else can he expect except gold, silver and jewelry in the rest of his life? We must ensure that he can use it for us. I don't believe it, who will be unmoved by facing a thousand taels of gold."

"Empress wise, you didn't see how Eunuch Du looked like whenever he saw us sending those rare objects, his eyes were almost stuck to it."

Haitang held Wen Yanyu and walked towards the dormitory. Wen Yanyu's voice fell lightly into the air through the bead curtain, "When my son succeeds, what are these things?"

In Yong'an Palace, Madam Yuan served Liu Lingzhi and looked at her deeply before retreating.

How could a woman who can safely give birth to a prince and raise him alone in the changing harem, how could she be a weak, incompetent, timid and afraid of trouble?

Liu Ben is unfathomable.

When she returned to the house, Madam Yuan shook her head in the dark, where the wind blew, the candlelight shook, and the calmness returned to her.

Madam Yuan took out a piece of paper from her arms and put it on the candle. The blue smoke ignited and turned into ashes in a moment.
