What?
Lin Che's pupils couldn't help but shrink.
According to the original owner's memory, the second prince hanged himself, but nothing was given to him.
But judging from the Empress's expression, it seemed that she should bring back something.
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince did not give me anything." Lin Che answered truthfully.
"oh?"
At this moment, a look of doubt seemed to flash across Jiang Li's face.
"Did my second brother say anything to you before he died?"
“No, no. There are no relics, and no time to say a last word.” Lin Che still shook his head.
Jiang Li looked straight at Lin Che, then slowly leaned his body against the dragon chair and said coldly:
"Then tell me about your life as a proton for the past ten years, no matter how big or small. Tell me everything."
"yes--"
Lin Che did not lie, after all, he still had the original owner's memories.
Moreover, ten years of proton life was too profound.
The original owner and the second prince were trapped in the hostage house together. At the beginning, ministers from Yanyun Kingdom and royal family came to question them.
Gradually, no one disappeared from the back.
If someone came to the hostage house, they would mostly insult and mock them, especially during festivals, when some ministers had relatives who died on the battlefield.
As long as they arrive at the hostage house, they will definitely be beaten and scolded in various ways.
Of course, they didn't dare to really kill the original owner and the second prince.
But one day, the original owner found that the second prince had not gotten up yet at noon, so he went to knock on the door.
When the door was opened, they found that the second prince had hanged himself.
Then a group of guards were alarmed and rushed in.
The original owner was also controlled and did not see the second prince until the day of the second prince's burial.
In the days that followed, there was always someone accompanying the original owner, for fear that he would hang himself.
In that case, Yanyun Kingdom would not even have the slightest buffer.
He finished speaking slowly. Although he was talking about the original owner's experience, Lin Che also sighed.
After listening to this, Jiang Li also fell silent, and said after a while:
"The Second Prince really didn't behave in any unusual manner before his death. Did you not notice, or did he tell you something that you forgot?"
"I can swear that I didn't do that."
Lin Che immediately began to swear, feeling even more puzzled. Jiang Li seemed to care deeply about the Second Prince's last words.
Is there something I should bring back?
Or?
The original owner actually brought it back, but I didn’t inherit the original owner’s memory?
"In that case, you should go back first."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lin Che could clearly sense Jiang Li's low mood, so he quickly excused himself.
I need to think carefully about whether I really forgot something.
After Lin Che left, the imperial study suddenly became quiet again.
At this moment, two figures slowly walked out from behind the screen in the imperial study.
To be precise, there was a person behind, helping the disabled person in front push the wheelchair out.
The person standing behind was a woman with a cold face, and the person sitting in the wheelchair was Duke Qian Ling.
Jiang Li obviously knew they were here and asked:
"Fa Zheng, is what he just said true or false?"
"Your Majesty, I witnessed the entire incident. Marquis Jing'an did not lie, and everything he said must be true. When someone suddenly receives so many rewards, their mind will become relaxed, and he did not show any signs of lying."
Jiang Li frowned slightly: "Could it be that the Second Prince really didn't give him any relics?"
Qian Fazheng suddenly thought of something and said:
"In the main hall, he said he was going to bring back the Second Prince's body. He lied. He wanted to escape. He thought Tiandu was not a place where he could stay for long. He wanted to survive, so he had to leave Tiandu."
"Oh? Interesting!"
Jiang Li's bright eyes lit up slightly, and she rubbed her slender fingers gently, and whispered:
"Knife slave——"
"exist."
The cold-faced woman responded in a low voice, her voice as sharp as a knife.
"Pick a good person to keep an eye on Lin Che the entire time. Report his every move to me."
"yes."
Dao Nu replied simply.
Jiang Li picked up his pen and quickly wrote down a secret decree.
"Give this secret decree to Lin Che and see how he reacts."
"yes."
Fa Zheng didn't know what the empress wrote, but he seemed to have guessed something:
"Your Majesty—do you think he—"
"Let's give it a try. I have a hunch that this Lin Che is different."
…
Jing'an Prefecture.
Lin Che leisurely toured his mansion, feeling very satisfied.
Although it is located in the outer city, it is also located on the bustling Suzaku Street.
The mansion has front and back yards, creeks, rockery, pavilions and towers. It is really a great place.
I never thought that one day I would be able to live in such a nice place.
"Um, that person..."
Lin Che looked at the fifteen maids following behind her. She didn't know their names yet, so she pointed at the tall maid in the front.
"Yes, that's you. What's your name?"
"My lord, my name is Xiaoqing."
"Xiaoqing. What's your full name?" Lin Che asked curiously.
"I am the descendant of a criminal and was sent to the palace. I don't have a full name. Fortunately, the empress showed me mercy and allowed me to leave the palace to serve the master." Xiaoqing spoke again in a low voice.
Lin Che nodded. It turned out that these people were descendants of criminals.
Men were sent to the army and women were confiscated. I have also encountered this kind of thing.
Just now, he took the maids to familiarize themselves with the mansion, and at the same time secretly observed these maids. He found that Xiaoqing was the most polite and also took care of the other maids. She did not show ecstatic expressions like the other maids.
