Chapter 721 If a Body Is Found at This Time, Whose Body Could It Be?

Something happened in the palace again, and Liu Wei had to go to the city no matter what.

However, the whole city is currently under martial law, and even if Liu Wei reveals his identity, the imperial guards will not immediately let him go. Liu Wei must submit a certificate and then send it to Jing Zhaoyin, which takes a lot of time before he can be released.

Liu Wei left the city in a hurry and did not bring any papers with him. Naturally, he had nothing to prove his identity. The only thing that could be used was the waist badges worn by the two young eunuchs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or those worn by Qin Zhongrong Leng. That Ouchi guard token.

After handing over all four signs, Liu Wei, like the others who were blocked outside, stopped the carriage in the open space on the left side of the city gate and waited patiently.

During this period, the two young eunuchs kept chattering.

The two of them are considered important figures in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In the palace, who wouldn't give a shit about them? Even Eunuch Qi, who was in front of the emperor, wanted to take a serious look at them. Unexpectedly, a little guard guarding the city gate dared not to take them seriously.

As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years, but eunuchs hold grudges even more than women.

Liu Wei listened to the two complaining, and felt that she was really more annoying than the woman. Rong Leng saw that Liu Wei was unhappy, so he held her hand and motioned her to feel better.

But where can Liu Wei feel happy?

Liu Wei lowered the curtain of the carriage, blocking out the chatter of the two young eunuchs outside, and only said to the man next to him: "I still haven't figured out what the soul-calling nail is, and the Qiankun Pearl. Although they are all fakes, what is the connection between these things and the deceased people? It can’t be possible, it’s really ghosts that kill people.”

When Liu Wei said the last sentence, he laughed self-deprecatingly, even himself feeling ridiculous.

This case involves a lot of things. Two princesses and a princess have had troubles one after another, causing the entire imperial city to be in turmoil and everyone in danger.

The most critical evidence is in their hands, but they have never been able to figure it out.

Liu Wei felt very tired. She slept well last night, but now she was sleepy again.

Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand to gently caress her lower abdomen. Seeing this, Rong Leng immediately hugged her, let her lean into his arms, and coaxed her softly: "Think slowly, don't..." She got pregnant.

Rong Leng didn't say the last four words.

Liu Wei didn't think much about it. She leaned against the man and muttered softly: "Magnet, magnet, magnet..."

Liu Wei was suddenly stunned for a moment and had a guess in his mind.

"You said..." Liu Wei hesitated.

Rong Leng looked at Liu Wei puzzled.

Liu Wei's words were not very sure, and he said hesitantly: "Tell me, is this magnet related to the case, or does the murderer have some special meaning that he wants to express?"

"Um?"

"Iron Hidden Within Wood, Legend of the Western Regions, could it be..."

"What is it?"

Liu Wei shook her head and couldn't explain clearly, but there seemed to be a line in her heart, guiding her to a certain direction along this line.

As for where that direction leads, Liu Wei can't see clearly now, but her intuition tells her that she will have the answer soon.

"Speaking of which, I have never seen all those paintings carefully." Liu Wei murmured, turning to look at Rong Leng: "Have you ever seen all those paintings?"

The paintings Liu Wei mentioned were naturally those brought from Changyang Palace and Puxiang Palace.

Among those scrolls, it is almost certain that the "Buddha Feeding the Eagle" in Puxiang Palace was not painted by Concubine Min herself, while the "Spring Appreciation Picture" confirms the relationship between Xiang Yi and Concubine Min.

Of these two pictures, Liu Wei looked at them most carefully and understood them the most, but he ignored the others.

Yes, there are so many paintings by Concubine Min, why are these few displayed, and each one is well preserved and well taken care of.

So, since it is so carefully preserved, why is it placed in the main hall of Changyang Palace, which has almost become a palace of death?

Aren't you afraid of getting dusty, not afraid of people coming and going in the palace, bumping into each other, and getting the corners damaged?

What's even more strange is that there is nothing in the main hall, not even a complete teacup, but there are paintings all over the four walls.

Who maintained the painting, who hung it up, and what was the purpose? What did the person who hung the painting want people to notice?

Liu Wei had a feeling in her heart that the mystery of the soul-calling nail and the Qiankun Pearl could be found in those paintings, or more likely, the causes and consequences of the entire case could be discovered in them.

Feeling itchy, Liu Wei was eager to go back to investigate, but was locked outside the city gate.

If the two young eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had not followed, she, Rong Leng, and Qin Zhong would have had many ways to sneak back into the city, but with these two obstructive young eunuchs, everyone was restrained.

After waiting outside the city for nearly two hours, I saw two yamen servants wearing Jingzhao Yin yamen uniforms walking out in a hurry at the city gate.

The two men first showed their tokens and then asked the guards for a few questions.

The imperial guard pointed to their position, and two government officials came over in a hurry. Outside the carriage, they respectfully asked: "But Zhengemen Liu Sizuo, Lord Liu?"

Liu Wei stretched out her hand to lift the car curtain, glanced outside, and said softly, "Hmm."

The two government officials had obviously seen Liu Wei, and they immediately handed over their hands and said in an anxious tone: "Master Liu, you are back. If I don't find you again, Master Lin's hair will turn gray!"

Liu Wei was slightly surprised: "Master Lin?"

Lin Sheng?

The yamen servant nodded quickly: "There has been another case in the city. The body is now at the yamen. Mr. Liu, let's go back quickly? If we are a little late, Mr. Lin may have to smash the door with his head!"

Liu Wei was a little unhappy because he had waited for a long time. When he heard that someone was dead, he didn't care about anything else and hurriedly said: "Open the way ahead!"

The two government officials immediately responded and went to explain to the imperial guards.

After a while, the fence at the city gate was finally removed, and Liu Wei's carriage, escorted by Jing Zhaoyin, headed towards Jing Zhaoyin's Yamen without any hindrance.

In the carriage, Liu Wei looked at Rong Leng, a little nervous.

Rong Leng's expression wasn't very good either.

A body was found at this time. Whose body could it be?

Could it be that it is really...

Facts have proved that whatever you want will come, and whatever you fear will come.

As soon as Liu Wei arrived at the Kyoto Yamen, she saw Lin Sheng standing in the courtyard sweating profusely after receiving the news, wiping sweat while waiting.

It's hard to see this guy sweating in this winter.

Under Rong Leng's considerate care, Liu Wei had just gotten off the carriage when Lin Sheng hurried over and muttered: "Master Liu, you are here. This time, this time you can save me." ah……"

Incoherent!

Lin Sheng's official rank is higher than that of Liu Wei, and he actually refers to him as a lower official. This is simply nonsense and confusion.

Liu Wei saw that Lin Sheng was a little confused, and said with solemn eyebrows: "My lord, please don't try to harm Liu. What happened, please don't be impatient and tell me slowly."

Lin Sheng opened his mouth to speak, but looked around and held back, asking Liu Wei to go to the back hall to speak.

When they arrived at the back hall, Lin Sheng scolded the servants and began to talk.

Only then did Liu Wei realize that so many things had happened after just one day and one night out of the city with Rong Leng.

According to Lin Sheng, news came from the palace last night that the princess was missing.
