Chapter 654 Just Count on Your Fingers for Uncle Rong to Listen To

Rong Leng's pace was neither urgent nor slow.

When she was completely enveloped by the man's figure, Liu Wei swallowed her saliva, forced out a smile, and said, "You...you're here."

Rong Leng looked at Liu Wei with an indifferent expression and cold eyes.

Liu Wei pulled Xiao Li over without leaving a trace and blocked him in front of him, trying to use this small movement to make himself feel more secure.

Xiao Li was confused and stuck between the two adults. After thinking for a while, he said first: "Uncle Rong, my father and I are going to eat Buddha and jump over the wall. Do you want to come with us?"

Xiao Li asked nicely, with an invitation on his face.

But when Liu Wei listened, she wanted to shut her son's mouth. Her son was good at everything, but he was a little heartless.

Rong Leng glanced at Liu Wei subtly, and Liu Wei averted his eyes hurriedly and guiltily.

Rong Leng frowned and said, "Okay."

Xiao Li enthusiastically took Uncle Rong's big hand and said with a smile: "Let's go then. Dad said that Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is a good thing. If you go late, it will be sold out."

Feeling Rong Leng's gaze coming towards her again, Liu Wei couldn't say a word.

Liu Wei touched her nose and tried to make herself look less embarrassed. She held her son's other hand and the three of them seemed calm, but in fact the atmosphere was strange and they headed towards the first-level building.

Yipinlou is a first-class restaurant in Kyoto. It was still early when they went there, but there was only one private room left.

This private room was specially set aside for Rong Leng's sake.

After ordering the dishes, the waiter left.

Before the waiter left, he diligently closed the door and completely isolated this small space.

Then, Liu Wei became embarrassed.

In the small elegant room, the fragrance is burning, and the fragrance is not too obtrusive, but refreshing.

Liu Wei felt that Rong Leng's eyes were always on her. She wanted to say something several times, but in the end, she got stuck in her throat and couldn't say a word.

"Xiao Li." Rong Leng suddenly said.

Xiao Li looked up at Uncle Rong.

Rong Leng asked: "What did you do today?"

"That..." Liu Wei wanted to speak, but Rong Leng glanced over with a cold look.

Liu Wei held back the words that came to her lips and swallowed them back. She calmly stopped and lowered her eyes.

Rong Leng continued to look at Xiao Li.

Xiao Li was an honest person, and after hearing this, he obediently counted his fingers to Uncle Rong: "We did a lot of things today. We first went to the prison, and then to the Jingzhao Yin Yamen. Uncle Rong, by the way, we also A corpse was cut up, Uncle Rong. The cause of death of the corpse we saw this morning turned out to be suspicious. The time of death did not match the condition of the body. It is not known what she experienced before she died, but what is known is that she was He was harmed by someone, and the other party is very likely to be a master of martial arts..."

Xiao Li talked eloquently and told everything he knew.

Rong Leng was not too surprised when he heard that the cause of Yu Ping's death was strange. Only when he heard that his abdomen was completely broken at the end, he frowned and his expression fell into deep thought.

Seeing Rong Leng's expression, Liu Wei was a little ready to act. Finally, she had the courage to ask: "Do you have any clues..."

Before he finished speaking, Rong Leng raised his eyes again, and Liu Wei was like a mouse that had only seen a cat. She immediately lowered her head, pursed her lips, and fell silent.

Rong Leng didn't deliberately hide it, he just said eight words: "The New Year is coming, and the sacrifice to heaven is coming."

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of this sentence.

Rong Leng said calmly: "The jade girl in front of the Buddha is attending the important event of offering sacrifices to heaven."

Liu Wei then understood that Princess Yuping had a nickname and was nicknamed "The Jade Girl in Front of the Buddha" by the queen. Because of this name, Princess Yuping was slightly different from other princesses.

Although they are not the princesses directly descended from the queen, Princess Yuping is treated particularly favorably. The reason for this is because Princess Yuping is destined to serve the Buddha, and serving the Buddha is her top priority.

The people in the palace are superstitious and always give many preferential treatment to those who have face in front of the Buddha.

Princess Yuping is known as the Jade Girl, so she has her responsibilities. As a jade girl in front of the Buddha, Princess Yuping cannot help but attend the royal family's sacrifice to heaven every New Year.

And after attending, she was not like the others, just kneeling in the hall and listening to the Buddha's voice. Princess Yuping was to preside over the sacrifice to heaven, or in other words, to occupy the position of assistant.

Now, it's already the 18th, and in another 12 days, it will be the New Year's Day, and worshiping the heavens will begin before the New Year.

At this time, with Princess Yuping's status, she naturally has many guards around her to protect her closely.

But Princess Yuping was still killed, and her death was so strange.

Liu Wei lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought together with Rong Leng.

Liu Wei had never thought of this before, because Liu Wei didn't know much about the affairs in the palace and thought Princess Yuping was just an ordinary princess.

If she were an ordinary princess, she would naturally have a certain number of palace maids and eunuchs around her, and it would be difficult to find anyone who was particularly capable and capable of protecting her master.

But if Princess Yuping's identity is so important and there are so many guards around her, then it will be much more difficult for the murderer to kill Princess Yuping.

Therefore, the murderer's force value was originally set at five stars, but now it can be estimated that it should be close to ten stars.

In this way, the scope of the murderer was narrowed down.

Although Kyoto is an important place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons, in the palace, and even in the harem, it must be rare to find someone with a strength worth ten stars.

If it were in the past when Zhengemen still had a place in the palace, they might still be able to find a lot of them. After all, the people of Zhengemen were all good at martial arts.

But now there is no trace of the Zhengemen in the palace, replaced by the imperial guards. I believe Liu Wei doesn't know how much they weigh, and Rong Leng also knows.

So now the question is, are there other forces hidden in this palace?

And why does this force want to oppose Princess Yuping alone?

What grudge does a little princess who has lived in a deep palace for a long time, never leave or take a step forward, often walk in front of the Buddha, and have very little contact with people, to crush her bones and not leave her whole body intact?

The private room suddenly became quiet.

Liu Wei recalled Princess Yuping's body and the many traces on it, fearing that she had overlooked something.

Rong Leng thought about the scene in the palace today. He had only entered the palace for a few hours today, but in addition to the Zhenge Gate disappearing from the inner palace, he did find some other strange things.

For example, Rong Su's power seems to be greater than before, and of course the prince's lineage is no less generous.

It's just that in addition to these two forces, Rong Leng seems to have sensed other forces, and then thinking about Rong Fei's assassination...

Rong Leng felt that he might have left the palace too early and missed something.

Both of them were thinking seriously. Xiao Li sat on the chair and looked at this and that. Finally, dragging his cheeks, he murmured a little lonely: "Why hasn't my Buddha jumped over the wall yet come..."
