As night fell, the lights in the capital city were like a galaxy of stars. Bookstores and restaurants lined the streets, with lanterns swaying.
The night market sold everything.
There was a lot of noise, and all kinds of sounds were heard.
"Masks for sale! Fifteen cents each."
"Fifteen cents? The one in front only sells ten cents, and there are more varieties than your stall. No wonder you have no business here."
"Get out, get out, if you don't want to buy, I beg you to buy it?"
"Just now someone said that something happened in the palace, and the Taifu got the news and rushed over."
"What could have happened? Is the emperor dead?"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! How dare you say that?"
"Why should I keep my voice down? He has detained Taoist Baopu. My daughter has been possessed by an evil spirit these days, and she keeps crying, and is waiting for the Taoist to save her life!"
The person who spoke put his hands on his hips.
"Didn't the Taoist priest say that the Fifth Prince has dragon energy, which means His Majesty is dying!"
Wei Zhao, wearing a low-key ebony-carved mask, was tall and slender, and pulled Yu Tingwan to the side of these people.
"This place is far from the palace, you don't know, but I just came over there and saw it clearly. The sky over there was red, it was on fire! His Majesty's Yangxin Palace was on fire!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.
The discussion became louder and louder.
Yu Tingwan seemed to have heard nothing, and only whispered to Wei Zhao about Zhou Yurou's previous incident.
"Yang Jingshu is cunning, and I use her as a pawn. She is also stupid, and hates me very much. She got the benefits promised by Yang Jingshu verbally, and now her life is not easy, so she is desperate to harm me."
"I didn't do it today, but I just wanted to ease the previous things and try to be friendly with me."
"Yang Jingshu gave her something and asked her to find a chance to bury it in our yard. I don't know what's inside."
But think about it, it's not a good thing.
Shunguo Mansion is like a copper wall and iron wall, with strict security. The third prince of Liangyue has to wait for the report honestly. What ability does Zhou Yurou have to enter?
Therefore, Zhou Yurou can only get close to Yu Tingwan.
That Yang Jingshu is really a piece of shit.
I didn't do it myself because I knew I couldn't afford to offend her. The price was too high.
But I didn't want Yu Tingwan to have an easy time.
"If it succeeds, she won't have to do it anyway. If it doesn't work and the matter is exposed, she will deny it to death and put all the blame on Zhou Yurou, completely clearing herself from the matter."
When discussing this matter, the maid next to Zhou Yurou was stopped outside the shop under the name of the Yang family. How could there be any witnesses?
As for the physical evidence, things that hurt people won't speak.
Yang Jingshu dared to give it to Zhou Yurou, so the origin of the thing and the person who handled it should have been dealt with, and what should be taken care of should have been taken care of.
Wei Zhao was in a good mood, but his face sank when he heard this.
In a moment, he had already thought of a hundred ways to kill the Zhou and Yang families.
His sleeve was pulled by Yu Tingwan.
The girl looked up, her eyes brighter than the stars in the sky: "I didn't expose Zhou Yurou just now."
"It's not that she is not smart, she is fanciful and thinks that a few nice words can help me fool her into treating her as a close friend. It's not that she is a fool, I have to tolerate it."
"It's not that I was calculated by others, I am too kind to care."
She is not a good person.
But...
When she said this, Wei Zhao's eyes moved slightly, and he had a guess.
Sure enough, the couple's ideas coincided.
Wei Zhao moved his lips: "The dog emperor has doubts about his confidant Yang Changsheng."
But it's not enough.
Yu Tingwan nodded: "If the box is really a thing that harms people, I really want to know how effective it is. Just find someone to use it."
For example, Emperor Ying Qian who escaped from the fire not long ago.
There is already a matter of dragon energy, why not let Emperor Ying Qian suffer a little more, and let him believe in this matter. It
's also killing two birds with one stone.
Yang Jingshu, this fool who came to the door, why not use it.
Disown?
She can't deny it.
Even if the evidence was really destroyed, Wei Zhao could still forge it.
At that time, it was no longer Yang Jingshu's fault, but her father Yang Changzheng was the real mastermind.
It was no small matter to murder the emperor.
If the emperor was defeated, what good would the Yang family get?
If you have the intention to harm others, you must bear the consequences.
The couple looked at each other with black hearts and felt that this matter was not immoral.
Wei Zhao raised his eyebrows, turned around and told Rong Di a few words.
Soon, Rong Di took the order and left.
Half an incense stick later, Rong Di came back.
In his hand was the box that Tan Jiang had seen before.
There was a lock on the box.
The lock was covered with spells.
The box was small and couldn't hold much inside, but it felt inexplicably heavy in the hand.
Who cares if the things are lost, how will Zhou Yurou explain it.
Yu Tingwan went forward to take a look, but was stopped by Wei Zhao.
She looked puzzled, but saw Wei Zhao's eyes fell on her waist.
The amulet hanging there was shaking slightly. Yu Tingwan felt strange and reached out to touch it, stunned.
The amulet was abnormally hot.
Wei Zhao decisively: "Send it to Baopu."
Rong Di: "Yes."
After the matter was handed over to Wei Zhao, Yu Tingwan didn't worry about it anymore and immersed herself in the play.
"Yu Tingwan."
"Huh?"
Wei Zhao: "Go to my left."
Yu Tingwan on the right?
Although she didn't understand, she cooperated.
The girl walked to his left side, the side of his arm that was not injured.
She looked here and there. She would
squeeze in wherever there were more people.
But it was easy to get separated when there were too many people.
Wei Zhao did not stop her, but raised his left hand from time to time to pull her back.
It was the first time.
Yu Tingwan asked: "It's strange that Ning Yunling didn't go out today. Is he really working hard in the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion?"
"I met my aunt today. She was very happy and told me that Ning Yunling had been staying in the study these days."
She didn't quite believe it.
Wei Zhao: "I don't know."
"Your cousin, you don't know?"
Wei Zhao said coldly: "You also said he is my cousin, not my son."
Yu Tingwan: ...
It makes sense.
Wait.
"But this is a good thing. As your elder brother, you don't want to mention him no matter what?"
"When he was first educated, I listened to the elders and taught him to read the Three Character Classic in a friendly and respectful manner. I taught him for half an hour, and he slept for half an hour."
Yu Tingwan: ...
"Then ... he was still young."
Sleeping is normal.
Wei Zhao: "Later, when he went to study at the Imperial College, he always ranked last in the exams."
"Every time he got into trouble, did poorly on the exams, or cheated, the Imperial College teacher asked my uncle to come over for a talk. My uncle felt embarrassed and threw it to me."
Yu Tingwan: ...
"I had to clean up his mess every now and then. I beat him and scolded him. But he didn't change after repeated teachings."
Finally, Wei Zhao gave up.
Wei Zhao sneered: "I have spent a lot of thought on him over the years. Now he is willing to work hard just because he likes a girl. Don't say that it's hard to tell. He has only seen her a few times? What? I will bite the bullet and work hard?"
Let's talk about it.
Who knows if it was just a whim.
"Look at me."
Yu Tingwan: "Ha."
Yu Tingwan said: "I see, you are a joke."
"..."
