Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 61 Getting Closer
"The little eunuch knows about it." Li Ji told Wei Yuan, "He is the godson of Eunuch Cao. He is the most afraid of death. He is also loyal to my father. He must not have pulled the trigger himself."

Wei Yuan said: "But the bird gun went from Jiang Wuchen's hand to the little eunuch's. There was no vibration to trigger the trigger, and the possibility of it going off is very small. According to the opinion of the lower officials, the dead little eunuch's body was There are a lot of doubts."

"Can he pull the trigger and blow himself up?" Li Ji couldn't help laughing.

On the side, Li Mu followed Wei Yuan's train of thought, and said with deep eyes: "If the explosion was intentional, then the fire escape is very likely to be a side issue."

Wei Yuan nodded, and fell into a new thought: What would happen if there were side incidents?
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Li Ji, who couldn't think of anything, couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

He never wants to discuss things with these so-called smart people, because every time this time, he looks like a big fool.

After holding back for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and asked angrily, "Could Wei Shilang come up with a reason?"

"Your Highness," Wei Yuan cupped his hands hurriedly, and begged, "Please give me some more time to investigate this matter."

"Forget it!" Li Ji was also lenient, willing to give Wei Yuan some more time, but not indefinitely.He said again: "Then you tell me a time, so that I can reply to Father."

"Three days."

"Three days?" Li Jidu felt that Wei Yuan was a little arrogant.In three days, he can find out the whole thing?

"Three days later, I will reply to His Highness the Crown Prince again." Wei Yuan was full of confidence.

"Okay!" Li Ji wanted to see if King Huan's father-in-law had the ability.

He quickly left the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

As soon as he left, Li Mu asked Wei Yuan: "Father-in-law, is there anything I can help with?"

"There is indeed something." Wei Yuan was not polite, "I want to borrow Ah Man. When His Highness goes back, let her go home at night?"

Li Mu was a little surprised, thought for a while and said: "If my father-in-law lacks someone with good fist and kick skills, I have a guard named Yufeng who can be used by my father-in-law."

"No," Wei Yuan said, "I'm used to Ah Man, so Your Highness will let her come back?"

"Okay." Although Li Mu didn't know how Ah Man could help him, he still agreed.

When he returned to the palace and met Ah Man, he told her about it.Ah Man knew it in his heart and told Wei Yingning about it, and Wei Yingning knew what to do.

In fact, as early as when King Huan left the palace, she went to the temple at the back to find Li Chongjian and asked him to enter the palace to find out the situation.Maybe he has come back now, but because of Li Mu's presence, he didn't show up.

In Prince Huan's Mansion, there are indeed many inconveniences.

"Your Highness hasn't eaten yet, right? The small kitchen has prepared some food, you can go over and eat some." Wei Yingning thought that she could get out while he was eating.

"Okay, you accompany me." Li Mu took her hand happily.

This was something Wei Yingning did not expect.

"I heard that you didn't eat a few bites at lunch, so you must be hungry right now." During the meal, Li Mu asked someone to bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks for Wei Yingning, and served her soup and vegetables. Tell her to eat more.

"I always eat less..." Wei Yingning looked at the food in the bowl, feeling sad and helpless in his heart.

"You are so thin, you should eat more." Li Mu really cared for her.

How did he know that she has no sense of taste for these gluttonous delicacies.

It's time to let her know about her "disease" earlier!Otherwise, she is often forced to eat this and that, after a long time, how can she bear it?

Wei Yingning secretly made up his mind.

But you can't be careless about this...

Fortunately, at this time, Jiang Zhaoer's elder brother ran to the front yard to inquire about the situation because of his anxiety.In order to prevent her from disturbing Li Mu's meal, Wei Yingning hurriedly dragged her to the back garden to talk.

After telling her about the situation in the palace, she comforted her again.

At that time, Li Chongjian was already pacing leisurely aside, and told her a lot about what he had learned.

"The little eunuch who was killed was named Fulu, and he was the adopted son of Eunuch Cao. He died unjustly."

"The blunderbuss that exploded in his hand was not the one used by Jiang Chiyi, but Zhou Qingyao asked him to hide it first and then secretly replaced it without anyone noticing. He would never have thought that Zhou Qingyao would give it to him." The bird gun will go off and explode."

"It's also his fault for being greedy for money, and death is not a pity."

"He could think about it, and said that fortunately the bird gun accidentally went off and exploded in his hand, otherwise the one who died would be today's saint."

"After all, he is a loyal servant."

After hearing this, Wei Yingning had some doubts in his heart.

She then said to Jiang Zhaoer: "Sister Zhaoer, go back to your room and rest, I have something to discuss with His Highness Prince Huan. If there is any new news later, I will inform you as soon as possible."

As soon as Jiang Zhaoer left, she hurriedly said to Li Chongjian: "If Zhou Qingyao was the only one who did this, the replaced bird gun should still be on the little eunuch Fulu! If he doesn't have it on him, then Zhou Qingyao must have an accomplice."

"exactly."

"Chongjian," Wei Yingning looked at him and asked him for help, "you can go to the palace again and ask the little eunuch Fulu to watch over your body. Besides, I would like to trouble you to keep an eye on Zhou Qingyao in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Don't let anyone who comes in contact with him be spared."

"Okay." Li Chongjian agreed and disappeared.

He "went" in a hurry because Li Mu, who had eaten his meal, was coming this way.

Wei Yingning hurriedly greeted Li Mu with a smile like a flower and asked Li Mu, "Have you eaten, Your Highness?"

Li Mu nodded with a smile, took her hand and told her: "I asked the dining room to make two snacks, you should eat more later."

"Okay...Your Highness treats me so well." Wei Yingning had 1 things in his heart that he didn't want to eat, but on the surface he wanted to act as happy and shy as if he was being pampered.Seeing Ah Man from a distance, she hurriedly put aside Li Mu again, and said, "I'll go and tell Ah Man a few words, and tell her to go back to help my father earlier."

She walked a few steps but turned her head and reminded Li Mu: "Your Highness, you should go to Jiang's house so that Lord Jiang can rest assured."

"I have sent Yufeng to go." Li Mu said.

"Oh."

"How do I feel that you are always avoiding me, even wishing that I would go outside? Are you bothering me?" Although Li Mu said this, he still had a gentle smile on his face.

"I haven't... It's just that I'm not used to being so close to His Highness." Wei Yingning was indeed not used to it.She only felt that Li Mu went out and came back again, like a brown candy.

"Go and tell Ah Man! We'll get used to it if we get closer when we come back." Li Mu looked at her with a meaningful smile in his eyes.

"...Okay." Wei Yingning was a little apprehensive, not knowing what he meant.

On the eaves in the distance, Li Chongjian looked at this scene, and there was a kind of emptiness in his eyes that he had never seen before, but he didn't know it.
