Chapter 69 Prime Minister, You're Overly Complimenting Me



In fact, Luo Xue Ning did not think that Prince Jing was a helpful person. However, under the current circumstances, she could only turn to Long Mo Xun for help. Thinking of pleading with Prince Jing, Luo Xue Ning suddenly felt a headache.

Prime Minister Luo frowned again: "What is your relationship with Prince Jing?"

"......" Luo Xuening shook her head helplessly. Dad, is this the time to worry about this?

"It doesn't matter. He owes me a favor."

Prime Minister Luo looked at Luo Xuening doubtfully. He always felt that his daughter seemed to be hiding something from him.

"Dad, I won't harm my aunt. Last time, it was Prince Jing who was in charge of Uncle Gu's case."

"so it is."

Prime Minister Luo suddenly realized that the last time Luo Xue Ning helped Prince Jing investigate a case, Prince Jing must have given her something in return.

"It seems that Prince Jing is different from what is said in the legend. He is a man who knows how to repay kindness."

"Well......"

Luo Xue Ning helplessly supported his forehead. If you knew that such a condition was exchanged for your daughter's life, you would not say so. Prince Jing is not the same as the legend says. He is even more cruel and violent than the legend says.

Just as Luo Xuening was secretly complaining, inside Prince Jing's Mansion, Long Moxun sneezed loudly, causing the secret guard beside him to frown.

"In that case, you can go and ask Prince Jing for help. Prince Jing is kind-hearted and will definitely not refuse."

Luo Xue Ning couldn't help but shudder. Prime Minister Luo, do you think I'm stupid or am I blind? The reputation of Lord Jing is notorious in the whole of Nan Shao. How can you say that Lord Jing is kind? Oh, I don't have ears to listen. This person who is full of lies is definitely not the Prime Minister Luo I know.

Luo Xue Ning couldn't help but roll her eyes. Prince Jing is so kind, there must be no bad people in this world.

At this time, in Prince Jing's Mansion, Long Moxun sneezed involuntarily again. This was the second time he sneezed today. Who is scolding me?

"Dad, Prince Jing is not here right now, so please don't say anything nice. He can't hear you anyway."

Luo Xue Ning still couldn't help but remind Prime Minister Luo that if Prince Jing heard such compliments here, he would probably get furious again. She had never seen anyone who could speak of his own faults so frankly.

Prime Minister Luo felt embarrassed, as if the flattery was a bit too much.

At this time in Prince Jing's Mansion, Long Moxun had already sneezed countless times. His resentful eyes were fixed on one place, which was the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"It must be Luo Xue Ning. Apart from her, who else would dare to curse me behind my back like this?"

Long Moxun talked to himself, then narrowed his eyes and continued to read the files in his hand. Ever since he perfectly solved Liu Jing's case and Wang Chun's case, the emperor never tired of putting pressure on him. He even asked him to cooperate with Fang Jinyu to solve all the old cases of the Six Gates.

Long Moxun could not disobey the emperor's order, so he could only concentrate on studying the case. He did not want to cooperate with Fang Jinyu. The two of them would each handle a case, and he could not let Fang Jinyu, who looked gentle on the outside but was corrupt on the inside, gain the upper hand.

Meanwhile in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Luo Xue Ning and Prime Minister Luo, after much deliberation, finally made up their minds. They were going to go to Prince Jing's Mansion to ask Dr. Sai to come and see them. But before that, there was one more thing they had to deal with.

Luo Xuening sat upright on the armchair, and above her sat Prime Minister Luo. At this moment, Prime Minister Luo sat upright, squinting his eyes as he looked at the man who was brought up, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"Who on earth instructed you to come and murder my concubine in Luofu?"

Whenever he thought of the fact that Madam Ye was still lying in bed, her life or death unknown, Prime Minister Luo's heart ached. He looked at the old doctor, and the fierceness in his eyes made the old doctor shudder.

"Prime Minister, I was just confused for a moment and did something wrong. Please forgive me."

The old doctor no longer looked as high-spirited as when he came. His clothes were disheveled and his gray beard seemed to be trembling like his owner.

"If you tell the truth, I may be able to forgive you. However, if you dare to lie, I can guarantee that your end will not be good."

After all, he was a subject. Although Prime Minister Luo looked weak on the outside, he was actually weak on the inside. Instead, he asked the old doctor to kowtow repeatedly. He bowed his head and spoke in a soft voice, but what he said was indeed very firm.

"Prime Minister, I dare not hide the truth. It was the Second Madam in the mansion who instructed me to deliberately hide Madam Ye's illness. I am guilty. Please punish me. However, I beg you to spare my life because I reported the truth."

Every word the old doctor spoke was earnest. He kept his head down the whole time. However, the moment he raised his eyes, he glanced in Luo Xue Ning's direction. It was unclear whether there was awe or fear in his eyes. These words were taught to him by Luo Xue Ning.

"Second Aunt, it is indeed the Second Aunt..."

When Prime Minister Luo heard about the "Second Aunt", he angrily slapped the handle of the armchair. In fact, the Second Aunt was the mastermind behind this, and Prime Minister Luo was not surprised at all. The Second Aunt had just taken charge of Aunt Ye's courtyard when Luo Yurou burned reeds in the outer courtyard. Just now, the imperial physician also said that the poison that Aunt Ye was poisoned with was also inhaled through the mouth and nose, so these poisons were likely mixed in the reeds that Luo Yurou burned.

Prime Minister Luo narrowed his eyes slightly. If the poison that Concubine Ye had given was really from the Second Concubine, he would definitely not show mercy just because she was a concubine in the mansion.

Over the years, the backyard of his Prime Minister's Mansion has become extremely dirty, and he now needs to clean it up.

"Father, this doctor was invited by one of my aunt's maids. To determine whether this person is telling the truth, you might as well interrogate the maid as well."

Seeing Prime Minister Luo's tense expression at this moment, Luo Xue Ning knew that Luo Xianxian was planning something. Today, she would make a concerted effort to cut off the Second Aunt, the chief lady's lackey.

"Okay, bring the maid up here, and send someone to bring the second concubine here."

Prime Minister Luo used the word "bring" instead of "invite", which shows that Prime Minister Luo already had some doubts about the Second Aunt.

Soon, the Second Aunt twisted her waist and appeared in front of Prime Minister Luo. Ever since the last time Luo Yurou burned reeds in Aunt Ye's yard and angered Prime Minister Luo, Prime Minister Luo had refused to go to the Second Aunt's yard. Now, with great difficulty, while Prime Minister Luo called her over, the Second Aunt naturally had to perform well.

Now, the eldest lady is under house arrest, and the crazy concubine Ye, who has always been the most favored, looks like she is dying. Now is a good opportunity for her to seize favor.

"Master, I am here."

The Second Concubine was calculating her own plans all the way, and she came to Prime Minister Luo's courtyard with a smile on her face. This courtyard was used by Prime Minister Luo to work, and women from the backyard were never allowed to enter, not even the First Lady. It was said that before Concubine Ye went crazy, she had occasionally entered, but since Concubine Ye became crazy, no one else had entered the courtyard where Prime Minister Luo worked, and ten years had passed in a flash.

The Second Aunt had a smile in her eyes, and her charming pupils showed a pride that she couldn't conceal. She stared at Prime Minister Luo with burning eyes, how could she be so coquettish.

Luo Xue Ning turned her face away slightly. Don’t blame her for being unable to sit still. Truly, the look in Second Aunt’s eyes was too alluring. She had to be on guard, otherwise, what would she do if Prime Minister Luo was seduced away?

“Ahem.”

An artificial cough that came out of nowhere interrupted the awkward eye contact between the Second Aunt and Prime Minister Luo. The Second Aunt frowned, and Luo Xuening sat aside. It was not until she coughed lightly that the Second Aunt noticed her.

How come she is here? Surprisingly, this little bitch was allowed into the master's office yard. What a good trick.

"Bring the men up here."
