Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 1000 I will find a way

"Have you heard that there is something strange about the death of Lord Lu and his wife? Lord Lu seemed to have died of poisoning, and his wife was suffocated with a pillow."

"How did you know?"

"This matter is very private, and few people know about it. I also heard it from others." The man said proudly, "I don't know who Lord Lu offended. A dignified second-rank official was poisoned to death. How terrible!"

Those who come to Baifan Building are all rich and powerful.

The paths are wider than those of ordinary people.

Ram was having dinner with Cizhen in Baifan Building at that time. As soon as he passed by the hall, he heard the voices of several men talking.

Ram was sitting upstairs. Seeing that the people downstairs were still talking, he asked Cizhen to go downstairs to ask around. After about half a quarter of an hour, Cizhen came back and said, "Princess, that person said he was just talking nonsense. There is no evidence."

Ram snorted coldly, "If he has evidence, then there will be no ghost. But such an important matter will not come out of thin air. I remember a few years ago, when the Liao princess Sagezhi came to Song to marry, many officials of the Song Dynasty died one after another. Although it was not announced to the public, the spies at the time found some clues that it was Sagezhi who did it. Now Sagezhi has been dead for several years, and another official was poisoned to death. What a coincidence?"

Cizhen remembered that the princess had discussed this matter with her at that time.

That being said, it is indeed strange.

It’s just that those who died at that time were not important officials, but it’s better that they died.

If the Song court had reacted a few months later, it might have caused turmoil in the court.

"What is the princess doubting?"

Ram shook his head: "No one suspected me, it's just that in the past few months, I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't put my finger on it."

"The princess has been too tired in the past few months. Now the Tubo princes are fighting fiercely. Although the princess is not in Tubo, she has also contributed a lot!"

At this point, Ram sighed.

There was no intention of speaking again.

After dinner, we had tea at Baifan Tower and did not leave until it was completely dark.

When leaving, Ram was still worried, so he asked Gab to send someone to follow the man and find out where the rumor came from.

Prince Xuan's Mansion

"Your Majesty, there are rumors out there that Lord Lu did not die of natural causes, but was poisoned to death, and that Madam Lu was also murdered."

Zhao Jin put down his teacup and said, "No one in the Lu Mansion reported the case, and the Jingzhao prefect did not send anyone to investigate. How did this rumor spread?"

"My subordinates are going to investigate now!"

Zhao Jin raised his hand: "No need, I'm just curious. It's so late now, I want to go see my great grandson."

Zhao Jin visits his grandson every night.

The daughter-in-law, Mu, knew her father-in-law's habits, so after dinner in the evening, she would wash the child and have him taken to Zhao Jin's yard.

The child's name is Zhao Man. He is six months old and babbling is the time of fun. Every time Zhao Jin teases his fat grandson, he feels very happy, as if he doesn't have to worry about anything even if the sky falls.

Half an hour later, Zhao Man yawned continuously, and Zhao Jin let the wet nurse take the child away.

Zhao Jin, who is fifty years old, already has white hair, but his back is still straight. Looking from behind, you can't tell that he is in his fifties at all.

He put his hands behind his back and went to the study.

Just as he was about to close the door, the maidservant beside the princess came over and said, "My lord, our princess is feeling unwell. Why don't you go and see her?"

Zhao Jin frowned slightly: "Feeling unwell? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Zhao Jin followed the maid to the backyard, pushed the door open, and smelled a strong smell of medicine.

"Little Butterfly."

"My Lord, you are here." "What medicine did you drink?"

Xiaodie said, "It's nothing. As people age, they have more problems. I've been suffering from insomnia lately. The doctor prescribed me a tranquilizing soup."

"It's not a tranquilizing soup, my lord. The soup the princess drinks is for replenishing qi and blood."

"What nonsense are you talking about, girl? Get out!"

The maid left the room feeling aggrieved. She was doing this for the princess's own good. She couldn't hide her illness. Besides, the prince loved the princess so much. If the illness was serious, he would definitely feel distressed and blame himself. It would be better to tell him earlier and then ask a good doctor to see the princess.

Xiaodie: "Don't listen to her nonsense. It has been like this since I gave birth. It's just some old ailment. Just take some medicine and rest. You have something to do recently, go and do it. Don't delay it."

These past few months have been busy indeed.

So he didn't notice that Xiaodie's body had become like this.

But things have come to a critical moment, and now something has gone wrong. I am afraid that all my efforts will be wasted, so I have to be extra careful these days.

"I'm really busy lately, but if you have anything to do, please let the maid tell me in time."

"Ah."

Watching Zhao Jin leave, Xiaodie's eyes drooped.

The maid helped her lie down, but she couldn't fall asleep and she didn't know what to do.

Zhao Jin came to the study again, closed the door, walked to the desk, turned a lampshade next to it, and the layout of the entire room became blurred in an instant.

If there is someone there at this time, they will find that they cannot see the layout of the room clearly, nor can they be sure whether there is anyone in the room.

The lampshade is the eye of the formation. Just turn it and the formation will be activated.

Zhao Jin walked all the way to the secret room, where there were already quite a few people waiting.

Zhao Jin sat down in the middle, and someone immediately unfolded the map in his hand. Several people made marks and discussed for about an hour before putting the map away.

Zhao Jin said: "According to speculation, the defense map is most likely hidden in this location."

"But now you rarely go to the palace, and it is even more impossible for you to stay in the inner hall for a long time. How can you get the defense map and how can you get him out of the palace?"

"I will find a way to do this."

"Confirm the way out of the city again. Every step is important. Make sure everything goes well."

"Yes."

One of them was targeted shortly after leaving the secret room. This person was the one who appeared in the teahouse before.

This time it was Gu Er who watched her personally, watching her return to the yard.

But what Gu Er was more curious about was where she came from and why she suddenly appeared. Last time, she followed him to this place and then suddenly disappeared.

Weird.

I reported this situation to my master, but I don't know if he has sent someone else to investigate and whether he has found any results.

I watched her all night, and then she went into the yard, but I didn't see her come out again. Until the next morning, I saw her change into men's clothes and go to the teahouse.

There is no doubt that they were exchanging information.

It would be great if we could catch the person she contacted this time.

There were surprisingly many people in the teahouse today, even the main hall was full of people. The man went straight to the second floor and observed very carefully before pushing the door open.

There were too many people, and Gu Er couldn't disguise himself as a customer, so he had to fly to the roof and stop right above the private room.
