Chapter 220: Selfishness
The sigh passed silently in her heart, she glanced at Yilan, who had been standing beside Tong Jia's side, and didn't know what she was thinking, until Nian's impatience and others were impatient, and a voice sounded, "Ring, I gave it to Lan'er when she came to Jingsiju this morning." ”
Nian sneered, obviously not believing her words, but still turned his head and asked, "Yilan, is it true that your sister said that the ring is with you?" ”
Yilan's heart jumped sharply, and she opened her mouth and was about to speak, but Tong Jiashi had already preempted her and said: "Yilan has been staying in the Lanxin Pavilion since last night, and has never left a step, how can she go to Jingsiju, sister, doesn't she remember it?" ”
Ling Ruo's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal, looking at Yilan who wanted to speak and said softly: "Lan'er, don't be nervous, just tell the prince whether you have ever been to Jingsiju today." ”
"I ......" Yilan wrung the handkerchief in her hand hard, and just as she didn't know how to answer, Tong Jiashi had already shook her hand and said: "Lan'er, Zheng's matter is not trivial, you must think clearly before answering, don't answer wrong." ”
Others listened to this as a kind persuasion, but Yilan knew that she was warning herself that the ring was what she asked Ling Yao, no matter what the reason was, it would be difficult to get rid of this fact, if the truth was told at this time, Tong Jia's family would be in trouble, but it would be difficult for her to get out, let alone the ring......
People, when it comes to themselves, are often selfish.
After weighing it for a long time, Yilan gritted his teeth and said something that made Ling Ruo sad, "I...... I don't know what Sister Lu Dao is talking about, I'm in the Orchid Pavilion all day today, how can I go to Jingsiju and ask my sister for a ring!"
"Lan'er, do you know what you're talking about?" Ling Ruo couldn't believe her ears, Yilan was actually talking nonsense with her eyes open, was she crazy?!
Yilan lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her, but Ran Shicai's words clearly reached everyone's ears, and Nian sneered and said sarcastically: "Ling Fujin is really a good calculation, he can't get the ring, so he wants to put the responsibility on his sister, but Yilan understands the righteousness and doesn't fulfill this lie for you." ”
Without waiting for Ling Ruo to argue, she was already talking to Yin Zhen, who had been silent: "Lord Wang, although there is no evidence to prove that the disappearance of the Zheng family is the work of the Niu Hulu clan, there must be an inseparable relationship between the two. ”
Yinzhen's eyes flickered and flickered in the candlelight, making it difficult to see the truth, and it took a long time before a low voice sounded in the night, "What about the motive?" Su Yan, what do you think Ling Ruo is doing this for? ”
"This ......" Yinzhen's words made Nian's family unable to answer, yes, what is the reason for Niu Hulu's to do this, jealousy? This obviously doesn't make sense.
Yin Zhen didn't give her time to continue thinking about it, and said lightly: "Don't jump to conclusions before you have real evidence, wait until you find the Zheng family!"
As soon as this remark came out, Mo said that it was Nian's, but Nala and Tong Jia's were also stunned and inexplicable, in this situation, Yinzhen said this clearly deliberately to be biased towards Niu Hulu's, what does this mean, they both know in their hearts, this is not a good thing for them.
The Nala clan was the first to come back to his senses, nodded and said, "What the prince said is that the most important thing now is to find the Zheng family, and the others can be checked slowly." ”
"It's better to send someone to search this Dongling Pavilion back and forth, maybe there will be clues." Tong Jia's proposal was agreed by Yinzhen, and he ordered Gou'er and Zhou Yong to lead a team of guards drawn from elsewhere to carefully search Dongling Pavilion.
Although Tong Jiashi stood quietly to the side and stopped saying anything after saying this, Ling Ruo still caught a slight hint of expectation from her expression.
Bowing his head, in the faint invisible smile, his fingers slowly stroked from the placket, the clothes made of fine brocade would not have any sense of stinging, but for the sake of beauty, the clothes were embroidered with heavy flowers, which damaged the original smoothness of the satin.
Gou'er and Zhou Yong are both people around Yinzhen, the most efficient people, the search has been completed in less than half an hour, only three feet away from digging into the ground, and there is nothing suspicious near Dongling Pavilion.
This answer was beyond Tong Jia's expectations, and the ten fingers hidden in his sleeve shook slightly, impossible, Changshou clearly said that he knocked Li Wei unconscious, how could he not find him? Could it be that Li Wei had woken up and left before they came? It's impossible, Changshou said that he was very heavy, and it was impossible for Li Wei to wake up and leave before they came, as for after they arrived, the lights were bright, and guards were placed to guard them, and Li Wei couldn't leave silently even if he woke up.
Things progressed to this point, and for the first time, something that deviated from Tong Jia's imagination made waves in the originally determined heart, and the suspicious gaze swept over Ling Ruo, who only maintained her usual quiet color, so that she could not see any clues.
Originally, in Tong Jia's imagination, as long as they found Li Wei, and he had no way to explain it, the suspicions on Niu Hulu's body would continue to expand, and coupled with her later arrangement, Niu Hulu Lingruo would definitely not be able to escape the charge of colluding with the eighth elder brother.
But something went wrong at this time, is it a small accident that is not in the way or a flaw that is enough to affect the overall situation?
At this time, there was a rhythmic running sound, but it was the guard who was responsible for guarding the gate of the palace, and when he ran in front of Yinzhen, he knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "Lord Qiqi, the thirteenth elder brother and the ninth elder brother are each confronting each other near Chaoyang Gate with their own people." The thirteenth master sent someone to say that the matter was very important, and asked the fourth master to come over immediately. ”
Hearing this, Yinzhen's eyebrows, which had not been stretched tonight, wrinkled more and more tightly, what is the old thirteen doing, he just made a fuss in the palace last time, but fortunately it didn't reach the emperor's ear, why did it stop for a few days and then make trouble again, and it was bigger and bigger each time, and they all brought people and horses.
However, Lao Thirteen is not a person who does things without proportion, this time he made such a big move, and sent someone to invite him, what happened?
Just when Yinzhen hurried towards the vicinity of Chaoyang Gate, the atmosphere between Yinxiang and Yinzhen was already tense to the point of saber rattling.
"Old Thirteen, a good dog doesn't get in the way, I have already spared you once last time, and you still don't know each other, do you have to do it with me?" Under the jumping flames, Yinyu looked at Yinxiang angrily, the hand holding the knife was tightened again and again, he was stopped by Yinxiang who suddenly appeared when he walked here, which also made him puzzled, tonight's things they did were extremely concealed and careful, how could they suddenly kill a Yinxiang, and they also brought a lot of people, as if they had been prepared.
The long knife was also in Yinxiang's hand, and he still had that casual smile, "Dog? Brother Jiu seemed to have forgotten my relationship with you when he said this, didn't you say that I was a dog, and ......" He deliberately slowed down his tone and slowly said the last three words, "Huang Ama!" ”
