After this incident.
He had a deeper understanding of Ying Wuji's vengeful character. A person with such an extreme temperament dared to disobey even his father and king, so why would he care so much about his brother-in-law who is the crown prince?
Ying Yue asked, "Before the Hundred Family Festival, when you were in Jiangcheng, did you find that Wuji had a close relationship with the Crown Prince?"
Gongsun Di shook his head: "No!"
Ying Yue was even more curious, because after the Hundred Schools Conference, Crown Prince Zhao Ning immediately went out to fight. He came back once on New Year's Eve and then immediately went to the new land of Li Kingdom to maintain stability. He did not come back until ten or twenty days before the Sword Immortal Conference.
Adding the time of the Sword Immortal Conference itself, the total time is less than two months.
It's been less than two months, and there haven't been many intersections in terms of work. Why does Ying Wuji care so much about it?
And these two bodies of Emperor Zhuanxu...
"but……"
Gongsun Di seemed to remember something: "However, there is a confidant of the crown prince named Zhao Ling, who often interacts with Gongzi Wuji. Gongzi Wuji's contact with the crown prince should be through him."
"Zhao Ling?"
Ying Yue narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is it the young man from the Zhao family who appeared in the embassy when Wuji was tortured in the embassy because of the business seal incident?"
Gongsun Di nodded: "Yes!"
Ying Yue had a deep impression of Zhao Ling, because with that kind of demeanor, no matter which royal family he was in, he would definitely be highly valued, and it was not surprising that he became the prince's confidant.
He then asked, "Have you met Zhao Ling at this Sword Immortal Conference?"
"No!"
"Is Zhao Ling in that tomb?"
"No!"
Gongsun Di shook his head, feeling somewhat puzzled: "Your Majesty, do you mean..."
"nothing!"
Ying Yue waved his hand and said, "You can leave! Call Lin San over!"
Gongsun Di didn't know why, but he felt his heart tighten, so he could only bow and say, "Yes!"
After answering, he hurried out.
In the entire embassy, the person he is most familiar with, besides Ying Wuque, is Lin San.
I remember that when Master Wuque returned to Gan, in addition to Concubine Lin and Lin Tieniu, there were also several household servants. Lin San was one of them. This person was quite smart and especially good at gathering information, so he was able to accompany Ying Wuque.
At that time, the two of them rushed here day and night because of the matter of Muye Monument, and naturally they did not bring Lin San with them.
But later, when the envoys from the Gan Kingdom arrived, Lin San was among them and was always ordered by Ying Wuque to do miscellaneous tasks.
After a while.
Lin San arrived, and after seeing Ying Yue, he knelt down with a plop: "I, the lowly one, kowtow to Your Majesty!"
Ying Yue flipped through the book casually, without even looking up, and said, "Tell me what you've seen and heard since you came to Jiangcheng!"
"yes!"
Lin San responded and respectfully recounted what he had seen and heard.
Most of them were about what Ying Wuque asked him to do. Although they were scattered, he reported them in great detail. For example, what happened before Ying Wuque asked him to do it, what he encountered in the process of doing things, and even Ying Wuque's reaction after his report.
Ying Yue nodded: "I see, well done!"
Lin San quickly said, "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
Ying Yue raised his eyelids: "Are you still in contact with the Li family?"
"What!"
Lin San was shocked. He was a country boy who was bought as a slave after Lin Qing retired. How could it be possible...
But he quickly realized that the person in front of him was the all-powerful King Gan. If he really wanted to investigate, how could he possibly hide it from him?
He quickly said, "No contact yet, but we can get in touch."
Ying Yue then put down the book, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "From now on, you will stay here and be my insider. After I leave, pass on a message to the Li family."
Lin San bowed quickly: "Your Majesty, please speak!"
Ying Yue's mouth curled up slightly: "Crown Prince Zhao Ning... is a girl!"
Lin San was startled. "What? Are you saying...is the news true?"
Ying Yue asked back: "Is it important?"
"I understand!"
Lin San responded quickly. He knew the situation in Li State too well. Wei and Han were being sucked dry by Zhao, and Li was in danger.
It doesn’t matter whether the news is true or not; what matters is that there is such news.
The best defense is offense.
Although Prince Li and his son are extremely powerful now, as long as the other families catch hold of this criticism, the Li royal family will be in great trouble.
Now is the stage of grabbing meat. As long as we can grab more meat, who cares whether the news is true or false?
And this kind of thing is hard to explain.
Prince Ning has been married for many years, but he indeed has no children.
You can't just take off your clothes in front of all the officials just to prove your identity!
Ying Yue waved his hand and said, "Go down!"
"yes!"
Lin San left the study quickly.
Ying Yue held his chin with one hand and tapped the desk slowly with the other hand, his expression becoming somewhat amused: "Long Yang's best friend, and she's still a girl..."
He has no evidence.
So just guessing.
But he was at least 50% sure about this guess.
Of course it is impossible to prove it. So many people in the Kingdom of Li have been keeping an eye on the royal family, but nothing fishy has been discovered for more than 20 years. How could it be possible that I could guess it just by thinking about it?
However... he has no shortage of ways to verify it.
"Zhao Ning..."
He looked out the window, thinking about something else.
…
"Wuji! You're awake!"
Zhao Ning sat on the edge of the bed, holding Ying Wuji's hand tightly.
During the hour that Ying Wuji was unconscious, she felt heartbroken every moment.
