Chapter 777: How Should Liu Wei Bear the Crime of Deceiving the Emperor?

This white jade ring is a circle with strange patterns engraved on it. The pattern is unique and the lines are clear, but it is too clear. Rong Leng can almost recognize it at a glance. He has seen such a pattern somewhere before.

Rong Leng frowned, grabbed the little guy's hand, and asked, "Where did this thing come from?"

Xiao Li was stunned. He looked at the ring on his hand and said obediently, "A grandpa gave it to me."

Rong Leng's expression turned bad.

Liu Wei saw that Rong Leng looked wrong, got up, walked over, and looked at Xiao Li's hand: "What is this?"

Liu Wei asked about Rong Leng.

What makes Rong Leng care about it means that this thing is obviously not an ordinary thing.

Rong Leng didn't speak. To be precise, he was thinking about where he had seen this white jade ring before.

Liu Wei asked Xiao Li to give her the ring.

Xiao Li obediently took it off and handed it to her mother. Liu Wei took the ring and looked at it carefully in the sun, hoping to see any clues.

But before Liu Wei saw the doorway, another male voice said from behind: "Give it to me."

Liu Wei turned around and saw Rong Su staring at the ring in her hand with a strange look on her face.

Liu Wei looked at the two brothers, hesitated, and handed the ring to Rong Su.

Rong Su took the white jade ring and looked at it several times. The longer he looked, the uglier his expression became. In the end, Rong Su's entire face turned dark.

"What on earth is this?" Liu Wei was curious.

Rong Leng still didn't answer Liu Wei, but Rong Su said: "Tribute."

"Tribute?" Liu Wei was stunned for a moment and looked at Xiao Li: "You said the person who gave you the ring was a grandpa? What kind of grandpa? Do you still remember his appearance?"

Xiao Li was dumbfounded by his mother's question. He blinked stupidly and then shook his head: "He is an old man with gray hair. He speaks very kindly and smiles all the time. He said this is what he gave me." My meeting gift. But dad, I don’t know grandpa. Grandpa insisted on giving it to me. I said I didn’t want it anymore, but grandpa still insisted on me accepting it. I... I also gave grandpa a bottle. Hanabamaru...Dad, I, I don’t take advantage of others.”

As if he was afraid that his mother would accuse him of collecting people's things indiscriminately, Xiao Li defended himself aggrievedly.

But that's not what Liu Wei cares about.

Liu Wei frowned, her face turned ugly, and asked again: "Grandpa, does it look familiar to you? Think about it carefully, have you seen him elsewhere?"

Xiao Li didn't know why his mother asked, but he still recalled it obediently, and finally shook his head: "No, this is the first time I have met this old grandpa, and I have only seen him this once."

"Think about it again," Liu Wei said.

Xiao Li thought about it carefully and shook his head.

Liu Wei's expression became uncertain. The gray-haired old man was very kind and kind. Whenever he made a move, he was a tribute...

Such a person has to remind Liu Wei of the current Emperor Qian Ling.

But Xiao Li had met Emperor Qian Ling, not to mention in Fuping County, even after entering Beijing, Xiao Li also entered the palace and met the emperor.

If it was Emperor Qian Ling, Xiao Li should recognize him.

Could it be that he is really not Emperor Qian Ling?

If it really wasn't Emperor Qian Ling, then who could it be that could casually give tribute-level objects to a child?

Rong Su had the same idea as Liu Wei and also suspected that it was his father. However, after hearing Xiao Li's repeated denials, Rong Su hesitated.

Engraved on this mutton-fat white jade ring is the Compassion Flower, a flower from the West.

A few years ago, the Tianya Kingdom in the Western Regions sent tributes, including two bracelets made of mutton-fat jade. One was given to the queen, and the other was given to Rongsu's mother concubine, Concubine Yi.

Because that bracelet is extremely rare in the Central Plains, Concubine Yi still wears it on important occasions from time to time.

When Rong Su went to the palace to pay his respects to his mother and concubine, he saw that she was wearing the bracelet. The pattern of the compassion flower on it was the same as the one on the white jade ring, but the ring was small after all, and the engraved flowers looked smaller.

Rong Su thought like this, then raised his head, looked at Rong Leng, and said, "If it is true that my father left the palace and found Xiao Li, I am afraid that my father has some plans."

At this time, Rong Su didn't care about Xiao Li bullying his son anymore. The fights between children were all trivial matters.

The real big deal is the fact that Rong Leng returned to Beijing, and Liu Wei's identity...

Looking at Liu Wei to the side, Rong Su couldn't imagine how she would bear the crime of deceiving the emperor if this person disguised herself as a man and became an official in the court.

Rong Leng secretly returned to Beijing before, not wanting to be discovered. When he borrowed someone from him to cover up, he just helped Liu Wei for the sake of his face.

After all, after fighting with Rong Leng for so many years, he didn't care whether this person lived or died, but he couldn't help but care about Liu Wei, and he couldn't help but help.

Seeing that Rong Leng remained silent, Rong Su's expression became even more ugly. He put the ring down and asked, "What do you have in mind?"

Rong Leng didn't reply, just still thinking.

Rong Su endured his anger and waited for Rong Leng to drink a cup of tea. Finally, he became impatient and raised his voice and asked, "What on earth are you..."

"Tianya Kingdom." Rong Leng spoke suddenly, interrupting Rong Su's next words.

Rong Su and Liu Wei looked at Rong Leng at the same time, waiting for Rong Leng to continue.

Rong Leng then raised his deep and sharp eyes and looked at the two of them with a very bad expression: "They must be people from Tianya Kingdom who have entered Kyoto."

Rong Su was startled.

Liu Wei asked in confusion: "You mean, there are people from other countries who hide their identities and come to our Qingyun country and enter Kyoto? So what do they want to do? Are they plotting something evil? But why did they find Xiao Li when they were plotting something evil?"

Rong Leng looked at Xiao Li in front of him and said: "Then what the old man said to you, repeat it word for word."

Xiao Li was very confused. He had no idea what was going on. He saw several adults with solemn expressions. He was startled and then thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, his leg is bad."

Rong Leng frowned: "Be more careful."

Xiao Li said obediently: "The old man walked without making any sound. At first, I thought it was because my martial arts had deteriorated and I couldn't even hear my steps. But later I discovered that the old man walked very slowly and very lightly. It was not because of his inferior martial arts skills." I'm tall, but he has a prosthetic leg on one foot."

"Prosthesis?" This was an unfamiliar word, and Rong Su expressed his confusion at first.

Xiao Li looked at Uncle Rongsu and then at his mother.

Liu Wei nodded and allowed his son to continue.

Xiao Licai said: "After a person's hands or feet are broken due to an accident or man-made trauma, they will not be disabled for life. If allowed, they can be made into prostheses, that is, artificial limbs. In this way, from the outside, at least the person's whole body will be disabled. Complete, but the prosthetic limbs are fake after all. They are installed later and cannot be as flexible as real hands and feet. Moreover, my father said that under the current medical system, although there has been research on prosthetic limbs in some places, After all, it is just the beginning. Its materials and portability are still very crude. Some patients may suffer from allergies and infections when using it. The most important thing is that if a prosthetic limb is not used by high-ranking officials, it will definitely be difficult to install. "It's up..." When Xiao Li said this, he turned to look at his mother and said, "Dad, grandpa's legs look like they fit very well. If I hadn't looked carefully, I wouldn't have been able to tell that they were fake."

Liu Wei lowered her eyes. She did not doubt Xiao Li's judgment. In this face, Xiao Li had never made any mistakes with her eyes.
