Chapter 44 Inexplicable
Lin Wan'er didn't feel anything at first, but when she heard the visitor say that Li Chengze might be in trouble, she immediately lost her composure.
"What's wrong? What happened to Brother Chengze?"
As Lin Wan'er spoke, she became a little agitated and suddenly started coughing.
"Cough cough..."
Seeing Lin Wan'er like this, Ye Ling'er immediately comforted her: "Wan'er, don't get excited. Listen to what he says first."
Lin Wan'er finally reacted, nodded, and said, "That's right."
"Big brother, how is Brother Chengze?"
Li Cunxiao said, "The Second Prince has just been taken away by the people from the Ministry of Justice."
"He was taken away again?" Ye Ling'er asked in confusion, "What happened? Why was he taken away by the Ministry of Justice again?"
"Could it be that it's the same thing as before?"
"But wasn't the case of Zhuo Ziling's murder closed a long time ago?"
Ye Ling'er had asked someone from the Ministry of Justice two days ago, and they told her that this case had nothing to do with Li Chengze and that it was a frame-up by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Moreover, the Crown Prince has now been punished and has been under house arrest for three months by His Majesty, and is still staying in the Eastern Palace.
Since everything is over, why was Li Chengze taken away?
At this point, Li Cunxiao said, "I don't know the specific reason for this matter."
"However, I have learned from the people in the Ministry of Justice that the Second Prince was beaten this time, and the person beaten was not an ordinary person. It is said that the case has been reported to His Majesty."
"So, now the Second Prince has been taken to the palace."
"Hitting someone?" Ye Ling'er looked at Lin Wan'er beside her.
Then, Lin Wan'er suddenly thought of something and said in surprise: "I know, it must be the second brother!"
Ye Linger frowned slightly and asked, "Are you talking about Lin Gong?"
Soon, Ye Ling'er suddenly realized: "Oh, right, when he came yesterday, didn't he fight with Lin Gong and beat Lin Gong into a pig's head?"
"Could it be that Lin Gong was so angry that he reported this matter to His Majesty?"
Lin Wan'er nodded and said, "Yes, that must be the case."
"I didn't expect that my second brother would be this kind of person. I really misjudged him!"
Ye Linger said: "Li Chengze is in a special period now. If someone makes a fuss about this matter, it will be very disadvantageous to him."
"Especially Lin Gong, who is the son of the prime minister of the current dynasty."
Lin Wan'er was also a little panicked and asked, "Then...what should we do?"
Ye Ling'er pondered and said, "Wan'er, now it's up to you to take action."
"Me?" Lin Wan'er pointed at herself and asked, "What should I do?"
Ye Ling'er said: "Yes, you should go to the palace to find the Queen Mother and let her make the decision for you."
"Yes." Lin Wan'er nodded and said, "Why didn't I think of that just now?"
"I'll go now."
At this time, Li Cunxiao said again: "Princess, I am already outside the door and have prepared a carriage. Once you get on it, they will take you to the palace in the shortest possible time."
"Okay." Lin Wan'er immediately stood up and walked out the door without even changing her clothes.
Soon, Lin Wan'er said she was leaving the prime minister's residence with her maid.
After seeing Lin Wan'er leave, Ye Ling'er also prepared to go back home to do something.
However, before she left, she still had something to do.
Ye Ling'er waved her hand to Li Cunxiao and said, "We already know about this matter. You should go back and wait."
Having said that, she hurried out of the room and headed straight for the front yard.
Seeing that his mission was accomplished, Li Cunxiao did not stay there. He walked out of the room and left like a ghost.
the other side.
In the front yard of the prime minister's residence, Lin Gong, with a bruised face and nose, was lying on a rattan chair to rest.
There were two maids standing beside him, one fanning him, and the other gently peeling the grapes and putting the peeled grapes into his mouth. Lin Gong chewed the grapes, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled: "Today's weather is really nice."
“Eating delicious food, lying on a rattan chair, and feeling the breeze is simply beautiful.”
"It would be even better if you could recite a few poems."
"What a shame." Lin Gong spat out the grapes in his mouth and said, "What a shame I can't write poetry."
Just as Lin Gong was talking to himself, Ye Ling'er, who was not far away, walked over with an angry face.
When she walked in front of Lin Gong, she said, "Lin Gong, I really didn't expect that you are this kind of person!"
"I have always regarded you as my brother and followed your example in everything."
"As a result, you are not only rude and unreasonable, but also very petty!"
"I really misjudged you!"
"From now on, I will never talk to you again!"
At this moment, Lin Gong had not yet finished eating all the grapes in his mouth. After hearing Ye Ling'er's words, he was stunned.
"what?"
"Sister Ling'er, what are you talking about? I don't understand anything."
Lin Gong said with an innocent look.
Ye Ling'er snorted softly: "If you dare to do it, why don't you dare to admit it!"
Lin Gong spread his hands and said blankly: "What do you mean by daring to do it but not to admit it? What exactly is this?"
"Hmph! I won't believe you anymore." Ye Ling'er didn't give Lin Gong a chance to ask questions and turned away.
However, Lin Gong was even more dumbfounded at this moment. Seeing Ye Ling'er was about to leave, he immediately stood up and said:
"Hey, don't go, tell me what you want to say...hiss, it hurts."
As soon as Lin Gong stood up, his whole body began to ache, and he sat down on the rattan chair again.
He looked at Ye Ling'er who walked out of the mansion and scratched his head speechlessly.
"Sister Ling'er, did you take the wrong medicine today?"
"I didn't provoke her. It's really inexplicable."
Lin Gong thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so he stopped caring about it and continued to let the maids feed Grapes.
He thought Ye Ling'er was in a bad mood and would probably forget about it tomorrow.
……
at the same time.
Li Chengze followed the people from the Ministry of Justice and walked towards Central Street after leaving the palace.
He asked, "Hey, this road doesn't seem to lead to the Ministry of Justice."
"Why, are you all running to the palace to work in the Ministry of Justice?"
The middle-aged man in the lead bowed to Li Chengze and said, "Second Prince, to be honest, this time we are not going to the Ministry of Justice, but to the palace."
Li Chengze asked: "Is it the Ministry of Justice who came to see me, or is it His Majesty who came to see me?"
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "All of them."
"Okay, I know." Li Chengze waved his hand and said, "Keep leading the way."
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded in agreement and continued to lead the way.
In fact, Li Chengze already knew from the beginning that he was going to the palace.
If he guessed correctly, Guo Baokun must be dressed in a miserable state and was going to complain to His Majesty.
No matter whether he wins or not, the other party wants to disgust him.
However, it doesn't matter.
Because he had already found a solution.
