Chapter 400 Take your dog mouth
And now, in less than half the days, they have already investigated Ling Zizhong's plan clearly, and the clues are also in order. It is really...
Xiao Lingyu considerately did not say it in front of his subordinates to undermine their self-confidence.
He only praised them a few words against his conscience in their expectant eyes, and then let them go.
When the study returned to silence, Xiao Lingyu kneaded his eyebrows and looked at the letter presented by the secret guard. After hesitating for a while, he reached out his hand. He
opened several letters at a time and read them quickly. When he saw one of them, Xiao Lingyu's hand in the air paused and his fingertips lightly tapped.
The first three words of the letter were Ling Zizhong.
It's just that the handwriting looks different from the previous ones.
Xiao Lingyu compared the two letters and read them carefully. The more he read, the more serious his expression became.
It is indeed different.
In the previous letters, each word had a small hook when the pen stopped. These three words also have it, but the arc of the hook is slightly different.
This point alone is enough to confirm that this letter was forged by someone imitating the handwriting of the imperial physician at that time.
It was also deliberately made to look old.
Xiao Lingyu raised a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, the voice of the servant was heard outside the door: "Your Highness the Crown Prince, he wants to have dinner with you today."
Xiao Lingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing coldness and wildness: "I know."
Since he wants to be a dead man so much, then I will fulfill his wish.
Of course, we have to investigate it thoroughly before sending him to death.
...
Today the weather is gloomy, and it looks like it's going to rain. But after waiting for a long time, not a single raindrop fell.
Jiang Zhiyu was humming a little tune while watering the flowers. After a while, a maid ran in hurriedly: "Miss, the Sixth Prince is here. He said he wants you to help him see a doctor. He has already arrived at the inner courtyard."
"See a doctor? I think he has other intentions."
Jiang Zhiyu raised her eyebrows: "Let him come."
The maid said that the Sixth Prince had arrived at the inner courtyard, but in fact, Xiao Yanli had been waiting outside Jiang Zhiyu's courtyard for a long time.
He could hardly keep the smile on his face.
I'm afraid this is the only family in the world that refuses to let the prince in.
Seeing the maid come out, Xiao Yanli walked in.
He had a thick veil on his face, and said with a smile: "Every time I see Jiang Yushi, she seems so leisurely."
Leisurely?
Her current leisurely life was earned by working as a slave for the emperor!
When Jiang Zhiyu mentioned the past, she couldn't help but shed bitter tears.
She was an assassin, targeted, and had to go on a business trip...
She sighed: "Nowadays, the peaceful years are all earned by my hard work."
Xiao Yanli: "???"
What is she talking about? Why can't she understand?
Xiao Yanli opened and closed his thin lips several times, and finally chose to skip the topic and said softly: "I am still itchy, red and swollen these days. The ointment of the imperial physician is not very effective. Thanks to Dr. Jiang."
Jiang Zhiyu glanced at him.
"If it can't be cured, just take care of it."
His tone was extremely perfunctory.
Xiao Yanli: "..."
He was so angry that he laughed, and there was some sarcasm in his tone: "It turns out that there are diseases that even Dr. Jiang can't cure. Then, isn't the title of this miracle doctor unworthy of the name?"
"Put away your provocation," Jiang Zhiyu didn't even look at him: "What do you use to define me? Your dog mouth?"
Xiao Yanli's face suddenly sank.
Jiang Zhiyu continued to hum a little tune. Xiao Yanli took a few deep breaths and said in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about Jiang Yushi, but this mouth has the style of Yushi."
Jiang Zhiyu knew that he was mocking her for not doing her job, and she also said sarcastically: "What, are you jealous? Envious that I don't do anything and still get paid?"
Xiao Yanli gritted his teeth.
There is no point in continuing to talk like this, except wasting time.
"Jiang Yushi seems to have some misunderstandings about me. I don't think I have ever offended Jiang Yushi."
Xiao Yanli tried his best to maintain a friendly smile: "Why are you so hostile? We can be friends."
[Who dares to be friends with you? That's just because the grass on the grave is not tall enough. 】
"Just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush." Xiao Yanli's lips moved slightly, and Jiang Zhiyu seemed to remember something, and said to him who was about to speak: "By the way, don't be a riddle teller, just tell me what you want to say directly."
"Although I don't understand riddles, I know a little bit of boxing."
Xiao Yanli: "..."
He quickly went through the long speech he wanted to say in his mind, and finally found that they could only be shortened to a short sentence: Do you know my identity or not.
It was so straightforward.
However, since she wanted to be straightforward, then he would be straightforward to her, and he wanted to see how she would answer.
"Do you know my identity or not?"
"Yes."
Xiao Yanli: "..."
The topic ended too suddenly, and he was a little at a loss.
"I'm not talking about the prince's identity, I'm talking about..."
"I know, I know."
Jiang Zhiyu interrupted him impatiently: "I know all your identities."
Xiao Yanli: "???"
All?
She was too arrogant.
If she continued, she would only be angry to death. Xiao Yanli's eyes flashed with a trace of mockery, and she turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait," Jiang Zhiyu stopped him unexpectedly: "Although you are not a good person, the people under you are quite capable. I want her."
Both of them knew who she was.
Xiao Yanli couldn't help laughing: "For this kind of thing, I think you should ask her in person. How can I decide for her?"
He finished speaking and walked out without stopping for a moment.
Behind him, Jiang Zhiyu raised the corners of her lips slightly.
...
After returning to the mansion, Xiao Yanli thought about Jiang Zhiyu's last sentence, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
The last sentence revealed two pieces of information. One is that she really knew that she was the person behind Zuiyuelong and the master of Banzhuang.
The second is that she wanted to win over Banzhuang.
If Banzhuang really betrayed herself and joined her, she should not mention Banzhuang in front of her. She didn't even have time to sever the relationship, so why would she mention it on purpose and let him notice it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yanli's expression did not improve.
What if.
Since she doesn't like beating around the bush, she must have a close relationship with Banzhuang in private, which is why she had this idea.
Moreover, what she said at the end was 'I want her' instead of 'I want her'.
The difference of one word makes a world of difference in the context of expression.
Xiao Yanli struggled fiercely in his heart, and after a while, he thought of another possibility.
What if Jiang Zhiyu did this on purpose to make him alienated from Banzhuang and alienate them?
...
Ling Zizhong has a special identity, and Xiao Lingyu arranged him in a secret room. Except for his confidants and the guards who saw him with his own eyes that day, no one else has seen him.
So dinner was also eaten in the secret room.
"How long are you going to keep me here?"
