Chapter 120

When Wei Shangshu learned that the prince had gone to Xiangyun Village, he immediately sent his mother into the palace to tell Concubine Li.

Concubine Li was in a hurry, thought for a moment, and then called the palace servants to change her clothes.

The palace maid wanted to put on powder for her, but Concubine Li pressed her hand.

"I won't touch rouge today." Not only that, she looked in the mirror, and then dabbed some color with blush on the corners of her eyes.

It looked like he had just cried, and he didn't sleep well last night, so he was really haggard.

"Your Majesty, where are you going?" the palace maid was puzzled.

Concubine Li said: "Go to Qianyuan Hall and meet the Emperor."

Now is the time to seize the opportunity. She has to convince the emperor to show mercy to her third brother first, and she can't tell the truth yet.

Concubine Li understands the emperor and knows how to say it, so she can intercede.

She urged the eunuch carrying the sedan chair all the way: "Hurry up, hurry up!"

Arriving outside the Qianyuan Hall, Concubine Li went in after a brief notification.

There was no figure of the emperor in the main hall, so Concubine Li went around the screen and went to the apse.

Across the mica screen of Longteng Jiuyuan, I saw a figure sitting behind the crystal curtain.

Concubine Li lifted her skirt and knelt down immediately, crying: "Your Majesty, you must save the third younger brother who is a concubine. He was provoked by traitors and did something wrong!"

Wei Shangshu and Concubine Li's idea was to push Mr. Wei out when things couldn't be covered up.

But they were afraid that the crown prince would ask to be charged with the crime, so they planned to lie that someone else had instigated Wei Sanye to pay for the murder.

Hope to be able to take it easy.

Concubine Li felt that she had made a good plan, so she pleaded with the emperor earnestly, and when the prince returned to the palace, the matter was a foregone conclusion.

As for the father-son relationship between the prince and the emperor, there will definitely be quarrels over this matter.

For her, it was actually a good thing.

As long as their father-son relationship gets worse and worse, her son Mo Changgong can live a more comfortable life.

As a result, Concubine Li cried even more mournfully.

"The third younger brother of the concubine has been murdered miserably, woo woo!"

At this time, a cold and mocking voice came from behind the curtain: "Concubine Li, you are crying too early."

Hearing this voice, Concubine Li froze, with blood flowing backwards all over her body.

The two young eunuchs lowered their heads and silently stepped forward to open the crystal curtain and the mica screen.

Where is the emperor behind the curtain, but Mo Lingwei who hurried back to Beijing!
"Ah!" Concubine Li yelled and fell to the ground with a terrified expression.

Why is Mo Lingwei here?

His brother's bodyguard saw the prince's carriage parked in Xiangyun Village with his own eyes!
Mo Lingwei came down from the couch, in the middle of the white and red robe, a dragon was embroidered with gold thread.

In Li Fei's eyes, the dragon's eyes stared coldly, with a frightening and fierce look.

Mo Lingwei looked sideways at her expression, and poured a glass of water leisurely.

He spat out a cold word from his thin lips: "Empress Li, you don't seem very happy to see this prince?"

The boy lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

He said with a sneer: "Why, is this prince a ghost, scaring you like this? Or did you do too many bad things, and you are afraid of everyone you see."

Li Fei broke out in cold sweat on her forehead, as if she had fallen into an ice cave.

She tried to hold on to her rationality, and explained with a trembling voice: "So it's Ling Wei... I just didn't expect it to be you, I thought it was the emperor, it's really against the rules for you to see me in a mess."

Suspicion flashed across Mo Ling's Wei Jun's cold thin eyes.

He put down his teacup: "Father asked me to wait for him here, do you think I want to stay for a long time?"

Originally, he rushed back to the capital to visit Shen Ningning.

But the emperor sent guards to look for him overnight, so he went back to the palace to find out what was going on.

However, when he went out this time, he brought back a lot of fresh gadgets for Shen Ningning, so he asked the guards to pull his carriage, and first went to Xiangyun Village to deliver them to the little guy.

Concubine Li was absent-minded, leaning on the seat beside her in a panic, and staggered up: "So that's how it is..."

Seeing her like this, Mo Lingwei became more certain that she might really be guilty.

"Since the emperor is not here, I will go back first." Concubine Li wanted to leave.

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows: "Stop."

Concubine Li trembled, her face turned an inch paler in fright.

But after all, she has experienced strong winds and waves, she quickly stabilized, and turned around: "Ling Wei, what else is there?"

Mo Lingwei slowly walked in front of her. Who would have imagined that a boy who was nearly 12 years old was half a head taller than her.

The young man narrowed his eyes: "What did Third Master Wei do to make Concubine Li so flustered?"

"Nothing, nothing!" Concubine Li denied it.

Mo Lingwei sneered: "Don't want to say? Well, I'll send someone to inquire, and I can find out."

Li Fei was startled.

If you really want him to investigate, maybe the matter will be serious.

"Ling Wei, I didn't say anything because I was afraid that you would be in a hurry." Concubine Li thought for a while, and then she had an idea.

"Why am I in a hurry?" Mo Lingwei said coldly.

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility.

"Unless this matter has something to do with Shen Ningning." He didn't even notice that when he said this, his tone was no longer indifferent, but with a kind of fury that was about to get angry.

Concubine Li swallowed her saliva in fear: "Yes... it's half related..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mo Lingwei suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her neck.

"Ah!" Concubine Li screamed, grasping his arm weakly with both hands.

Mo Lingwei's eyes were as dark as an abyss: "Be clear, what's going on?"

Concubine Li's face turned red from being pinched, she wanted to say something but couldn't.

At this moment, after discussing political affairs from the imperial study, the emperor hurried back to talk to his son, and saw this scene as soon as he entered the door.

The emperor shouted angrily: "Ling Wei! What are you doing, let go!"

Mo Lingwei looked at him without any less fury.

"What did you do to Shen Ningning while I was away?"

The emperor hurriedly said: "I have already sent someone to investigate, you let go first, so that I can explain everything clearly to you!"

Mo Lingwei glanced at Concubine Li who was pinched and rolled her eyes in his hand.

Finally, he dropped his hand and threw Concubine Li aside.

The emperor wanted to help, but he thought his son was still there, so he urged the palace servants: "You help Concubine Li get up."

Mo Lingwei didn't talk nonsense: "Tell me, what happened?"

The emperor told the truth about the death of the Wu family, and the fact that Shen Ningning led the wolves to open a shed outside the city to deliver food to the refugees.

Mo Lingwei frowned.

When he was not around, someone wanted to assassinate Shen Ningning?

The emperor said: "I have sent people out to investigate, Concubine Li, what are you doing here?"

Concubine Li clutched her neck, her throat was filled with the smell of blood as she coughed.

She raised her eyes and said hoarsely: "The third younger brother of the concubine, you should know what's going on. A few days ago, someone borrowed a sum of gold from him..."

"Borrow? Are you sure?" Mo Lingwei asked coldly.

Concubine Li nodded again and again: "The third brother of the concubine is missing, as long as he is found, the truth will be revealed!"

Fortunately, she had already thought of another countermeasure, and before she came to Qianyuan Hall, she sent her mother to answer Wei Shangshu.
