Chapter 193 Returning Home
Just when everyone thought that this matter was over, three days later, Wen Qumo died suddenly at home, causing an uproar.
At the same time, Wushuang, who was supposed to be executed, disappeared.
Wanyan Palace.
"What did you say?!"
Shen Ruyu was furious, and she cursed, "Wasn't she taken away by your majesty's people? How could she disappear!"
The palace maid said tremblingly: "I don't know, I just thought that this is what they reported back. Wushuang disappeared after leaving for a while."
"After discovering that she disappeared, the palace was searched from top to bottom, but she couldn't be found. Your majesty also scolded many people for this."
Shen Ruyu clenched her handkerchief, her chest heaving violently, and forced herself to stay calm and said: "What happened next?"
"Your Majesty has specially ordered Commander Xu to lead people to search inside and outside the palace."
Hearing this, Shen Ruyu calmed down. She looked at the white outside and said coldly, "Tell Commander Xu that if you find her, don't bring her back, just kill her directly."
The palace maid shuddered and lowered her head, "Yes."
After she left, Shen Ruyu slowly sat down on the chair. From her veiny hands that were clenched on the armrests, it can be seen that her heart was not as calm as it appeared.
Wushuang's disappearance overnight was definitely not accidental. There must be someone behind the scenes helping her.
Could it be that someone noticed that Wen Qumo was not right and wanted to take the opportunity to lure her out?
But... no one should know her identity.
Thinking of the rumors that had been circulating in the palace before, Shen Ruyu's eyes changed several times, and finally became cold.
So someone discovered her identity?
But... who was it?
Shen Ruyu clenched her fists, and her red lips gradually tightened. She thought of the beginning of Wen Qumo and Wu Shuang's exposure. It seemed that it was because the little girl in Changqing Palace was looking for her snake, and by some coincidence...
Lin Baoer?
The Lin family...
the prince!
Shen Ruyu raised her eyes suddenly, and her pupils trembled slightly.
They had discovered it a long time ago?
Then when was she exposed?
Obviously, she claimed that she hid it very well and almost no one noticed it. Who would have thought that she would be exposed so early.
But it seems that the prince and the Lin family are still in the stage of testing her, and there is no substantial evidence.
If that's the case...
Shen Ruyu curled her lips cruelly, with a cold look in her eyes.
Then don't blame her for being rude.
...
That night, Changqing Palace.
After reading the letter in her hand, Lin Baoer nonchalantly put the letter under the candle, watching it being instantly devoured by the flames and turned into ashes.
She didn't expect Shen Ruyu to be so cruel. Even Wen Qumo didn't tell the truth, she wanted to kill people and destroy the bodies.
So in Shen Ruyu's eyes, these people are just chess pieces.
Fortunately, Wushuang was rescued by her elder brother, otherwise Shen Ruyu might have to escape safely again this time.
But even after so many things happened, the emperor still believed in this Concubine Li without any doubt, which gave her a headache.
[Don't people say that emperors are ruthless? Why does it seem that this emperor is so affectionate now? He eats whatever he is fed, believes whatever he is told, and has no suspicion at all.]
Lin Baoer sighed, threw off her shoes, and lay down on the bed.
[It seems that I have to work harder.]
The case of Wen Qumo's sudden death was handed over to the Dali Temple for investigation. The emperor limited them to find out the truth of his death within seven days. After all, no matter how you look at it, Wen Qumo didn't seem to have died of natural causes.
Later, the Dali Temple really found out that he was the murderer, but when they traced it back, they found that the murderer had hanged himself, and the case became even more confusing.
As for the Wen family, the death of Wen Qumo symbolized the fall of the pillar of the Wen family. For them, it was like a bolt from the blue. Moreover, before his death, Wen Qumo was carrying the stigma of having a secret meeting with a palace maid, which made the Wen family the topic of conversation in the entire Yanjing City.
The wife of the Wen family could not bear it and committed suicide.
After losing both parents in succession, Wen Shitao was heartbroken. When he was drunk, he was beaten by someone for flirting with a decent girl. Although he was punished after being saved from the official, his leg was also disabled.
Lin Baoer had no idea about the Wen family after that.
Today was the once-in-three-month opportunity to leave the palace and return home. Lin Baoer dressed neatly from early in the morning, waiting for the Lin family's carriage to take her home.
When she saw the familiar carriage at the palace gate, Lin Baoer was overjoyed.
[Oh my God! Finally! Finally! Finally I can go out again! God knows I'm going to get sick staying in the palace!]
No wonder people in ancient times were not prone to Alzheimer's disease. With all the palace fighting and intrigue, if you get senile, you'll probably die.
But she is not suitable for this place at all, and still likes to live happily outside.
[Roasted lamb! Hot pot! Barbecue! Here I come! 】
...
Lin's house, in order to welcome Lin Baoer, Lin Ruqian started to get busy in the morning. After his improvement, the hot pot tasted much better. Lin Baoer had always wanted to have barbecue, so he moved a sheep to the house without hesitation, waiting for Lin Baoer to favor it.
As soon as she entered the house, Lin Baoer smelled the smell that almost made her cry with joy.
"Hot pot!"
"Hehe, you missed it so much, didn't you?" Lin Ruqian smiled proudly, and quickly carried Lin Baoer to her seat, "Dangdang! All your favorites! There will be roasted whole lamb in the evening! Don't worry! You can eat everything!"
"Wow! Thank you, third brother!" Lin Baoer was so excited that she smacked Lin Ruqian on the face.
This made the other two jealous.
Lin Zhiyu also came over and pointed at the pumpkin dragon in front of Lin Baoer, "Baoer, this dish was made by big brother himself, and he knows you like it."
Knowing that Lin Baoer liked to eat this, he went to the kitchen to learn how to make it.
Sure enough, Lin Baoer happily kissed him on the cheek, "Baoer, you know that big brother loves you the most~"
Now Lin Mobai couldn't sit still anymore. He walked behind Lin Baoer and turned her around, "Baoer, you probably haven't seen Jinyi and the others for a long time, right? Second brother specially sent a private invitation to invite them to come over to play in the evening."
"Really?!" Lin Baoer was surprised.
Lin Mobai naturally got a kiss as well.
Shen Xuelan, who was watching them from a distance, smiled dotingly, "These brats."
She just wanted to turn around and talk to Lin Qiming, but she found that Lin Qiming beside her suddenly disappeared.
When she turned her head to look again, she found that Lin Qiming had come over at some point and was making Lin Baoer happy.
This happy scene warmed Shen Xuelan's heart, and the smile on her face deepened.
"Mom! Come quickly! If you don't come, my third brother will eat it all!"
"Bao'er, you are talking nonsense! How can I have so much! I still have so much!"
"Hey, mom, come quickly!"
