Li Mingjin did not explain to Emperor Tiansheng that the assassin was Princess Jiayang. This matter involved various conflicts of interest. He did not want Luo Shuyu to be placed under a high wall. Even if he told Emperor Tiansheng, it would only end up being Luo Shuyu's one-sided They may also suspect that they have malicious intentions, so they simply concealed the matter, and everything is still based on evidence.

Luo Shuyu only needs to act as if she is a victim.

For this reason, he was also called into the palace twice to accept the care and baptism of everyone in the harem. After the limelight passed, the husband and wife could be regarded as quiet and live their own little days.

However, the matter of catching the assassin still fell on Li Mingjin.

Among the princes, the third prince is neither the crown prince nor the eldest prince. Emperor Tiansheng originally wanted to choose the fourth prince, but considering his refusal to marry Princess Jiayang before, he gave up. At least the third son still has the strength. There are capable officials below to help, and the investigation of the assassin is also a training for him.

In this way, Li Mingjin led people to check for assassins inside and outside the capital every day.

According to Luo Shuyu's proposal, he strictly screened the people who came into the city every day, even the farmers who went to the city to sell fruits and vegetables.

Huangtian paid off, and he really let him find something.

This Jiayang princess did not return to the city, but he did not leave the capital either. Although it was different from what they guessed, it was still the same.

Li Mingjin couldn't help lamenting that his wife's planners were as good as a god, and if it was a man, she would definitely be the number one scholar in the Jinke.

When Li Mingjin's subordinates checked the gate of the city, they actually found a few people with different accents. After sending someone to follow them, they found that these people lived in an unoccupied house on the outskirts of Beijing, a little away from other villagers. Undiscovered.

Li Mingjin sent people to stay here for three days, and found some new things. Don't look at it as a deserted house, but there are quite a few people coming and going every day, all of them are very familiar, and many of them are court officials. , Li Mingjin asked them to record the specific time when these people came and went, and also recorded their conversations.

Those who dare to run here are those who are not afraid of death, collaborating with the enemy at this juncture?However, it is also possible that these court officials are actually the spies of the state of Zhou. They worked harder than others and got a higher position.

Moreover, some of these officials often have close contacts with the crown prince or the eldest prince.

Li Mingjin reported the matter directly to Emperor Tiansheng, which caused Emperor Tiansheng to be furious, so he directly sent more people to him to continue the investigation.

Li Mingjin ran outside every day to investigate the assassin, Luo Shuyu was a little worried, the weather was getting colder, and he was afraid that he would get sick, so he would let him drink a bowl of ginger soup every day when he returned home.

Compared with Li Mingjin running outside, it is much easier for Luo Shuyu to enter the palace and fight wits with the palace. It is nothing more than being stabbed by the crown princess, or catching the trap thrown by the eldest princess, not to mention the queen and empress dowager. Everyone had to respond well, otherwise it would be causing trouble for him and Li Mingjin.

However, since the princess lost her child, she seldom goes out. She just came to the empress to pay her respects, and occasionally happened to meet Luo Shuyu entering the palace. It was a big blow to her, and the child that many people were looking forward to disappeared just like that.

On the other hand, the eldest prince's concubine with a slightly protruding belly had a red face all day long, becoming more and more round and smooth, smiling at everyone, which was in stark contrast to the prince's concubine.

After the fight between the Crown Princess and the First Prince Concubine, it's the turn of the Empress and Concubine Lin to come and go. It has been a long time since a prince or princess was born in the Shengdi's harem this day.In recent years, Emperor Tiansheng always had some physical problems, and he didn't pay much attention to the matter of spreading branches and leaves. Now the harem is fawning on the queen and Concubine Lin, and the people behind them are like a seesaw, one after another.

Luo Shuyu saw everything in his eyes. Every time he entered the palace, he waited to watch the play, and when he went back to watch the play, he went to sit with Concubine Mei. When he returned to the mansion, he would always bring some fresh fruits. After a trip to the palace, those who didn't know thought he went to the Nanmen vegetable market.

Today, he entered the palace again to "chat" with the concubines of the harem, and Luo Shuyu took every precaution to prevent them from bringing the topic to him.

The Crown Princess doesn't like everyone recently, so she doesn't participate in the topic very much. With the support of the Queen, no one dares to bring up sad things in front of her.

Ever since the first concubine got pregnant, her temperament has become flamboyant. She is not easy to offend the princess, but Luo Shuyu, who is not yet pregnant, can make a fuss. Sitting is boring anyway.

"Shu Yu, we've already held a banquet this year, why don't you start it, and it's quite boring these days, why don't you hold one too?"

Luo Shuyu really wanted to gag her mouth with His Royal Highness's socks, not to raise the baby at home, to join in the fun, and ask him to hold a banquet at the right time, if there is something wrong with the golden bumps in her stomach, he Find someone to reason with, the eldest prince is still arguing with Li Mingjin all day long.

Naturally, Luo Shuyu couldn't agree, he couldn't cause trouble for Li Mingjin, and everything was not peaceful now, Zhou Guo's spies and the crown prince were all watching, it was still a question of whether the eldest princess concubine could be born smoothly, he thought for a second , then said calmly: "Sister Ruoyao, recently my Highness told me that many refugees were taken in in the sheds on the outskirts of the city. The money from the banquet was exchanged for food and sent to the refugees."

With such a deep understanding of righteousness, even the queen and the concubines present were moved, and the topic changed from the banquet to the refugees.

The concubine Wei, who is also the son, said: "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that the third concubine's words are very polite. Why don't we make a charitable donation and buy some food for the refugees or quilts for the winter, which can be regarded as solving your majesty's worries."

The empress looked at Luo Shuyu in a different way: "I see it." I really regret that I didn't choose Luo Shuyu to be the prince's side concubine.

Luo Shuyu was a little surprised that Concubine Wei Xian spoke for her. In the past, Concubine Wei Xian basically didn't participate in these open and secret fights, but today is really a bit unusual.

Concubine Wei Xian's original name was Wei Xi, and she was the son-in-law of General Zhenbei. After entering the palace, he has been very favored. He occupies a certain place in Emperor Tiansheng's heart, but he has never had a child of his own. It is also a means of saving his life. After all, his father He holds important military power in his hands. If he had his own children, the situation in the harem would be different today.

In the end, the charity donation naturally fell on the Crown Princess. Such a good deed of fame, of course, the Empress would want it to fall on her own son. It just so happened that the Crown Princess had just had a miscarriage, so she also had reasons to do good deeds.

Luo Shuyu didn't have the slightest complaint about this, on the contrary, he was fine with nothing. The fact that he was held hostage by the assassin a while ago was already enough of a show, so there is no need to do it again.

Before leaving, Luo Shuyu quietly fell behind and thanked Concubine Wei Xian.

Concubine Wei Xian smiled and said, "You don't need to thank me, Concubine Mei often sends me some vegetables, which suit my taste very well, it's just a matter of little effort."

Luo Shuyu really didn't expect that Concubine Mei and Concubine Wei Xian still had friendship, but after thinking about it, maybe it was just an excuse.

After leaving the palace, Luo Shuyu didn't know that the people serving Concubine Wei Xian were also very puzzled.

Waiter: "Master, why did you change from helping the third prince and concubine today?"

Wei Xi replaced the wooden hairpin and asked, "What do you think?"

Waiter: "Do you sympathize with the third princess?"

Wei Xi chuckled: "He doesn't need my sympathy, that kid is smart."

Waiter: "I'm stupid, please ask the master to remind me."

Wei Xi said patiently: "Today, can you see that the eldest prince concubine intends to make things difficult for him?"

Waiter: "Isn't it normal to have a banquet?"

Wei Xi: "Think about the current situation. The Crown Princess has just had a miscarriage, and the First Prince Concubine has a full stomach. Who does he dare to invite to his house? If there is any problem, who will take care of it? He is smart because he is smart." He will use current events to deftly resolve a dispute, and others will not take his fault. Not only did he reject the First Princess, but he also passed the steps to the Crown Princess, it's a pity that the First Princess didn't want to go over with his idea."

Waiter: "This is killing three birds with one stone."

Wei Xi: "He has a good heart. When everyone is using their heirs to compete for favor, he pays attention to the common people. For this alone, the situation is not comparable to the other two."

Waiter: "If the master also has heirs, why should it be so?"

Wei Xi smiled: "Wouldn't it be better to be alone."

Waiter: "The master will help the third prince and concubine because of the letter from the master a few days ago?"

Wei Xi: "That's right."

How can it be so easy to be the general of Zhenbei, otherwise, why should he enter the palace as a young master, he also has his own selfish intentions to help Luo Shuyu today, and it is always difficult to appease.

After Luo Shuyu returned to the mansion, she told Li Mingjin about Wei Xianfei speaking for her.

Concubine Wei Xian suddenly helped him today was a bit unexpected, and it was different from what he had known in his previous life.

His words are not just as simple as helping, Concubine Mei's credit?Certainly not, Concubine Mei is notoriously unreasonable, and she and Concubine Wei Xian have not had much contact with each other. It may be possible to deliver food to Concubine Wei Xian, but it is not enough to speak for him. It is still to offend Concubine Lin and the eldest prince. The concubine is the premise.

Of course, other people will not touch Concubine Wei Xian, he is also the target of the two palaces, if he can get the help of General Zhenbei, there is nothing to fight for.

Li Mingjin was cutting an apple for Luo Shuyu with a knife, and stuffed a piece into his mouth: "Concubine Wei Xian speak for you?"

Luo Shuyu swallowed the apple and said: "Well, I feel a little strange. He said that he has a relationship with the concubine as a vegetable. I don't think it may be."

Li Mingjin: "Indeed, I guess it should be General Zhenbei."

Luo Shuyu: "How do you say?"

Li Mingjin: "Father made an order yesterday to let him return to court as a teacher."

Luo Shuyu: "At this juncture, the teacher will return to the imperial court? Is it the meaning of the father?"

The nomads in the north would often cross the border to snatch food in winter, and it was winter and it was not suitable to return to Beijing.

Li Mingjin: "Someone said something, what might my father think about?"

Luo Shuyu: "What about the person who will succeed General Wei?"

Li Mingjin: "Right now, the Prince's faction and the First Prince's faction are still arguing, and they both want to send their own people. They will definitely have to quarrel for a month or two."

Luo Shuyu recalled the contents of the book. He really didn't care much about current affairs back then. He knew that General Wei's squadron would return to court, but he didn't know who to send. The fourth prince and Shen Mingyun went to the north, which is not now.

After he came back, many things were advanced, first his marriage with Li Mingjin, and then Shen Mingyun's entry into the fourth prince's residence.

Luo Shuyu opened his mouth to eat another piece of apple, but Li Mingjin didn't feed it into his mouth, and urged: "Your Highness, apple."

Li Mingjin pinched his chin: "I'll give you my brother."

Luo Shuyu: "..." His Royal Highness's skin is getting thicker and thicker.

Li Mingjin: "Yu'er, I want to hear you call me brother."

"Then I won't eat." Luo Shuyu's face was warm, and she turned her face away to ignore him. Li Mingjin just had the ability to add a little digression when he was talking about serious business.

"No, I want to eat." Li Mingjin bit the last piece, touched Luo Shuyu's lips, and directly fed the apple into his mouth. Luo Shuyu had to eat it, and Li Mingjin asked him, "Is it good?"

Luo Shuyu blushed, and glared at him: "You can sleep on the couch tonight!" After speaking, she was about to get off to the bed, but was hugged by Li Mingjin from behind.

"Okay, I know I was wrong." Li Mingjin just wanted to hear him call brother twice, but if he doesn't call now, he will call him on the bed later, "Let's continue talking."

Luo Shuyu gave him an angry look: "Then move your hands away."

Li Mingjin patted the back of his right hand with his left hand: "Oh, it put it on its own, and it has nothing to do with me."

Luo Shuyu was amused by him: "Sit down, Your Highness, if you tease me again, I won't talk to you."

"I promise to speak well this time." Li Mingjin said.

The atmosphere was gone, and he was still talking, Luo Shuyu didn't know what to say about him, so he had to let him sit up straight and find a comfortable position to rest on his lap.

Luo Shuyu urged him: "Your Highness, continue."

Li Mingjin: "Oh, where are you talking?"

Luo Shuyu: "The candidate to succeed General Wei."

Li Mingjin: "It hasn't come out yet, but I think the fourth child is interested in it."

Luo Shuyu: "His Royal Highness really thinks it would be good for the Fourth Prince to go? But there is Shen Mingyun by his side."

Li Mingjin: "That's true, then don't let him go, it's better to send your own people."

Luo Shuyu: "Who?"

Li Mingjin: "Lin Haiming."

To push is to push your own people, but there is also an opportunity. Li Mingjin needs to discuss these more in-depth matters with Chen Rong. After all, Luo Shuyu still has her own shortcomings.Most of the events in the book he read only mentioned the results but not the process. They could only remind Li Mingjin predictably, without knowing the specific people and events.

The little details that Shen Mingyun didn't care about in his previous life are all things that Luo Shuyu needs to pay attention to now.

The charitable donation was initiated by the Crown Princess, and noble ladies from all over the capital rushed to donate surplus food and unwanted clothes and quilts. Although it was only an urgent need, it could indeed save many refugees in the suburbs.

By doing this, the Crown Princess gained a lot of goodwill for herself, and was even praised by Emperor Tiansheng for a while, and it was rare for the Crown Princess to have a smile on her face.

On the day she was praised by Tian Shengdi, the first princess complained sourly to the first prince after returning home.

The eldest concubine: "It's clear that she didn't come up with this idea, but the queen insisted on it."

The First Prince: "It wasn't her idea, whose idea was that?"

The eldest concubine: "I originally wanted the third sister-in-law to hold a banquet, but he thought it was inappropriate now, so he came up with the idea of ​​donating. The queen agreed, and thought the third sister-in-law would do it. Who knew that the empress would This matter was arranged for the Crown Princess, so you are not angry."

The eldest prince: "These three sisters-in-law are also arrogant, so they are not angry?"

The First Prince Concubine: "I didn't see it, he usually looks kind and distant when he sees everyone."

The eldest prince: "Maybe the third brother really doesn't want that position, otherwise how could they give up such a good opportunity."

The eldest concubine: "What do you think, Your Highness?"

The eldest prince sneered: "The prince has benefited, so the quota to go to the north should be given to us. I want to push the fourth brother to go."

The eldest prince and concubine: "It's good for the fourth brother to go."

At the same time, Shen Mingyun, who had been depressed recently, finally found that the Fourth Prince had left him out in the cold.

The fourth prince slept in the study for a while, and he finally realized that there was a problem between the two of them.

Shen Mingyun directly rushed into the study and asked the fourth prince why, and the fourth prince told him that he would definitely go back to his room to sleep at night.

After all, these days Shen Mingyun came up with several recipes and made a lot of money.

The fourth prince also found out that Shen Mingyun had no affair with the prince.

It was night, and the two had the same room again. Tonight was extra exciting, and both of them were very satisfied.

It's just that the next morning, Shen Mingyun found that his stomach hurt a little, and there was some redness on the bed!

Half a day later, Luo Shuyu received a message from An Jiu.

He read the content of the message twice.

Shen Mingyun is pregnant? ? ?

The author has something to say: Third prince: Daughter-in-law, brother wants to penetrate your body tonight.

Luo Shuyu: ...
