Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 100 Map Secret
Wei Yingning quickly packed up and came to the study.

She was wearing clogs and pajamas, with her half-dried hair loose, quite unruly.Li Mu was studying the map on the parchment scroll, and when he inadvertently raised his eyes to see it, he felt only joy in his heart.

Thinking of what Zhou Lingru asked him, he felt that if Zhou Lingru knew Wei Yingning's real appearance, he would be annoyed that he had let him snatch her away to be his wife, right?
"What are you looking at, Your Highness?" Meeting his gaze, Wei Yingning unconsciously raised his arms and bent to his nose, sniffing carefully.

"Come here." Li Mu smiled softly, and stretched out a hand to her.

Wei Yingning had just walked over, and naturally put his five fingers in the palm of his hand.Li Muqiao made her sit on his lap as soon as he exerted his strength.

"Tell me, where did you get this map?" Li Mu asked looking at the parchment scroll on the table.

Wei Yingning saw it, and immediately stood up.

Where is this the parchment she brought back?The above map is obviously no longer what it looked like when it was seen in the mausoleum!
"Why did it change?" She picked up the parchment and looked at it carefully, only to feel that it was a little wet.

She almost thought that she got wet when she took a bath in the clear pool, but she was wrong when she thought about it. She took it off and put it on a big rock at that time, and never wet it.

Li Mu unhurriedly took the parchment roll from her hand, hung it over the candle and roasted it.

Not long after, Wei Yingning saw the map on the parchment scroll change at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually returning to its original appearance.

Before the original map was fully displayed, Li Mu spread it on the table again, tapped the water in the tea cup with his fingertips to moisten it little by little, and the new map appeared again.

He said: "This map has been tampered with, and it will be bright when exposed to water. On the surface, it looks like an ordinary map of the territory of the Great Zhou. The markings on it are all used to confuse people. It will appear after getting wet. It is the topographical map of the southern border king's tomb."

Southern Border King's Tomb?This person's name, Wei Yingning, had been mentioned by his father.

Although the king of Nanjiang was a small king in the frontier, he accumulated countless wealth during his life, and it is said that he brought all this wealth into the tomb after his death.

Everyone in the world wants this wealth.However, as early as the previous dynasty, people went on and on to search for the tomb of the southern Xinjiang king, but there was no clue.

Who would have thought that the topographical map of the southern border king's tomb was actually hidden in this parchment scroll.

"In this way, Marquis Pingning is also looking for the tomb of the King of Southern Xinjiang." Wei Yingning said, "It's just the map in his hand, someone probably gave him rubbings from this parchment scroll, but it's not Ming's one. .”

However, what is Marquis Pingning looking for in the Nanjiang King's Tomb?Is it also for the wealth of the king of Southern Border when he was born?Is he missing?

"There are always some desperadoes among the people who dig people's tombs just to steal the funerary objects in the tombs, and to make a living without descendants. Marquis Pingning is looking for the tomb of the southern Xinjiang king, but why?" Wei Yingning looked at Li Mu, thinking He should know Zhou Fang.

"I want to come..." Li Mu looked at the candlelight in front of the case, his eyes darkened, "The tomb of the king of Southern Xinjiang not only contains wealth that is incomparable to the country, but there must be something more valuable than this wealth."

Wei Yingning only felt that he was planning something.

"The thing that Marquis Ping Ning can value must be something extremely good." Wei Yingning stretched out his hand, wanting to take the sheepskin scroll from Li Mu's hand, and said: "This map is so important, I will collect it Let's go!"

Li Mu withdrew his hand suddenly, looked at her and asked, "Can you tell me the truth now?"

"Ok?"

"This," he shook the parchment, "where did you get it?"

Wei Yingning was heartbroken, and said, "I won't say anything."

This is a long story to explain, and because of the dead body of Concubine Gao, it will cause him another grief, why bother?It would be better not to say.

Seeing her rascal appearance, Li Mu couldn't help frowning, and exposed her concealment: "I went to pay respects to my mother and concubine at noon, and saw you and Aman sneaking into Concubine Piling's garden with my own eyes. When you come out, you will be covered in dirt, as if you have fallen into a cesspit..."

"It just fell into the cesspit!"

Li Mu was startled, and suddenly felt a little more smell in the air.

Wei Yingning took advantage of his unpreparedness and snatched the parchment from his hand, saying: "I picked this thing up from the cesspit."

"You..." Li Mu looked at her resentfully, in disbelief: "You're talking nonsense."

Wei Yingning put away the sheepskin roll and walked away.

Li Mu sighed helplessly.

"Wynn!" he yelled, with a little irritability in his tone.

Wynn hurried into the room and asked carefully, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

"Set the car." Li Mu got up and walked outside the house.

"Yes..." Wynn followed and asked, "Where are you going, Your Highness? The dinner has been set up ahead."

Li Mu ignored it and walked outside.

Ah Man also took a bath thoroughly, and when he saw Li Mu and Wynn leaving Qionghua Garden, he turned around and told Wei Yingning.

"It's time to eat, how is Your Highness leaving?" Thinking of Li Mu's face was not very good-looking, she guessed that the two masters were at odds again.After all, in the past two days, the two always had some conflicts.

Wei Yingning didn't care, put the parchment into a mahogany box, thinking about where to hide it.

After thinking about it, she suddenly cast her eyes on Ah Man's face, and immediately handed her the mahogany box, leaned close to her and whispered: "The one you put in the guardhouse tonight..."

"Isn't that right, ma'am? This is too hasty..." Ah Man was a little worried after hearing this.

"The more sloppy the place, the safer it is." Wei Yingning smiled slyly, and said: "Just wait and see! Because of this, Prince Huan's Mansion will not be peaceful."

Ah Man knew what happened and didn't know why, but he didn't think too much about it, and just acted according to Wei Yingning's arrangement.

"Boom——" There was a muffled thunder in the sky.

It is going to rain.

The weather in Kyoto is like this, the sun is still shining during the day, and the rain is about to come.

Pingning Hou Mansion, study room.

Zhou Lingru rarely talked to his father throughout the year, but this time, he came to his father's study on his own to discuss matters.

"A rare visitor." Zhou Fang put down the calligraphy and painting he was admiring, and said sarcastically.

As a father and son to achieve such a situation, looking at the entire capital city, he is the only family!

When did it start?In order to hone his will, he cooked his favorite puppy when he was eight years old?Or did it start when he was forced to fight the enemy at the age of 13?It's been years, I can't remember exactly...

"Tell me! Why did you come to find your father?" Seeing Zhou Lingru's desolate look, Zhou Xin felt depressed and didn't want to say anything unnecessary.

"Father is about to be in a catastrophe and doesn't know it. Who else is here to look at calligraphy and painting?" Zhou Lingru said this, as if talking about someone else, without any concern for his father.
