After being forced to marry as a substitute, I became famous in the limbo

Chapter 42 Investigation
In the afternoon, Lu Feng was turning over the tiles on the roof, while Jiang Ning had already arranged things and was about to start storytelling.

Long-time storytelling experience made Jiang Ning very aware that in such sunny weather, people are more willing to find a place where they can bask in the sun to pass the long afternoon.

Therefore, this is an excellent opportunity to make money in front of Jiang Ning.

But today, Jiang Ning waited and waited, but still no one came.

She observed the sky and made sure that Shen time had passed, but at the gate of Lenggong, there were still only a few guards standing guard.

As for the other palace people, she didn't see a shadow of them at all.

"Could it be because the story I told you last time made them lose interest?" Jiang Ning bit off a bunch of candied haws in her hand and asked herself, but then she shook her head in self-denial. "Even if you lose interest, there shouldn't be no one there."

Jiang Ning swallowed the candied haws in his mouth, and finally came to a conclusion, "Something must have happened in the palace."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning immediately got up and walked slowly to the door of the cold palace. She stuck her head against the door frame, looked around, and found nothing unusual.

"Do you know what happened in the palace today?" Jiang Ning casually poked the Imperial Guard beside him, but unexpectedly the other party didn't respond at all.

The screen was deadlocked for a moment, Jiang Ning felt bored, turned around and entered the hall.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Empress Dowager Empress is investigating the harem today, investigating the death of Poria cocos yesterday. Now that everyone is panicking, why would I want to listen to the book?"

Zhe Liu curled her lips helplessly, she was really helpless with Jiang Ning's professionalism.

She nodded, and turned her head to look at Lu Feng who was concentrating on turning the tiles on the roof.

A bold idea slowly formed in Jiang Ning's mind.

Now that everyone in the palace is working hard on Fu Ling's matter, no one should pay attention to her.

"Girl, I'm going out for a while."

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning turned around and was about to walk outside the hall.

"No, ma'am, Fuling just had an accident last night, how terrible, don't run around!"

However, Jiang Ning really didn't care so much, she desperately wanted to get the truth, and such thoughts grew like weeds in her mind.

And Mu Jingzhao may be the only person she can get in touch with who knows the truth.

"I'm going to repair the roof for the emperor, what if there is a leak in the royal study?"

Before Zheliu could react, Jiang Ning had already walked out of the cold palace gate.

"No, ma'am, how could the emperor's imperial study have a leak? Even if there is a leak, you won't be allowed to fix it!"

Zhe Liu hurriedly caught up to stop him, but Jiang Ning's figure had already disappeared.

Jiang Ning went to Taitai Hospital familiarly, and found the ladder she had hidden in the bamboo forest not long ago in the bamboo forest in the corner outside Shuanghua Palace.

Last time she came to Shuanghua Palace to climb the wall, because she was afraid of trouble, she put the ladder in the bamboo forest by the way.

At that time, Jiang Ning never thought that one day he would use this thing to climb the wall again.

Jiang Ning was walking on the palace road with a ladder in his arms. At this time, all the halls in the palace were in a mess because of the queen's investigation. No one cared about Jiang Ning's actions at the moment.

So she walked to the back of the imperial study very smoothly.

Although Jiang Ning often said that Mu Jingzhao was a dog emperor, she had to admit that the other party was really hardworking and conscientious in handling government affairs.

Except for the necessary daily itinerary, Mu Jingzhao stayed in the imperial study room almost all the time.

Of course, this also means that if Jiang Ning wants to enter the imperial study to read the files, he must bear the risk of being discovered by Mu Jingzhao at any time.

And now, she wants to use this method to avoid everyone's eyes and confirm whether Mu Jingzhao is in the imperial study.

Jiang Ning built the ladder like a stream of kindness, and put the ladder on the eaves of the imperial study.

She exhaled slowly, reached out to touch the small packet of medicine in her bosom, and then stepped on the ladder slowly.

Soon, Jiang Ning climbed onto the roof.

At this time, it was sunny after the rain, and the sun was just right, and there were still some drops of water left on the roof from last night. The warm golden sunlight shone on the glazed tiles of the imperial study room, and was crushed by the little drops of water, reflecting a little bit of dazzling light. The light made Jiang Ning dazzled for a while.

The roof tiles are arranged in a uniform and orderly manner. Jiang Ning looked at it for a long time, but he really couldn't judge where the best foothold was.

She crouched on the tiles of the roof, trying not to let others discover her presence.

Jiang Ning groped for a long time, and finally found a slightly loose tile on the roof.

She clasped the gap with her fingers and broke it hard, and finally managed to open a finger-wide gap between the tiles.

The sunlight penetrated through the gap and landed on the pages of the book in Mu Jingzhao's hands.

He frowned slightly, turned his face slightly, and then his expression returned to normal.

Jiang Ning leaned on the roof.Eyes pressed against the narrow gap and tried to look in.

Finally, she saw the neat rows of bookshelves in the hall, and Mu Jingzhao who was concentrating on reading.

Jiang Ning's heart skipped a beat, then, this means that if he goes in now, he will be discovered by Mu Jingzhao no matter what.

She sighed, although she had other plans, but it seems that now is not a good time.

Jiang Ning stood up with the help of the tiles, and walked cautiously towards the ladder.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ning slipped and fell on the tiles of the roof.

The huge impact caused the roof to make a "click" sound. Jiang Ning felt that something was wrong. She supported the roof with her hands and struggled to get up, but unexpectedly, a small piece of tile she was holding on to suddenly slammed into the roof. The ground collapsed, and the whole piece fell into the imperial study room.

Mu Jingzhao, who was reading a book, instantly stood up from his seat, with a frightened expression on his face, he looked up towards the roof.

I saw not far above my head, where the tiles collapsed, a woman's hand was protruding from the roof, struggling feebly in the air.

He was thinking about whether to do something when another large tile collapsed from the roof, revealing Jiang Ning's embarrassed but still smiling face.

Sensing Mu Jingzhao's gaze, Jiang Ning smiled awkwardly, but still stubbornly excused himself.

"Good afternoon, Your Majesty, did you sleep well during the heavy rain last night? This concubine was worried about your imperial study leaking, so I came here to fix the roof for you."

Mu Jingzhao didn't answer, but just looked at her intently, "Do you know how much the roof of Zhenyu's study is worth?"

Now Jiang Ning couldn't laugh at all, she waved her hand vigorously, trying to defend herself.

Unexpectedly, the swing of her arm knocked the already precarious piece of ash off the roof.

"do not move!"

Mu Jingzhao hurriedly gave a low drink, but he was still a step too late.

Jiang Ning's whole body and the piece of roof fell off from the sky above the imperial study, and fell straight towards Mu Jingzhao's side not far away.

As long as he reaches out his hand, he can catch the falling Jiang Ning and save her from danger.

However, when he saw Jiang Ning and the roof falling down, he jumped back almost reflexively, narrowly avoiding everything that fell.

With a bang, Jiang Ning smashed the small piece of roof straight onto Mu Jingzhao's desk.

Dust was flying in the imperial study room, and the sunlight from the roof shone unscrupulously into the hall.
