Chapter 320

"Missing?" Luo Tian almost laughed angrily, "A big living person is following you, and you don't even know it's gone?"

Since Luo Ming was falsely accused of having a private meeting with others, and locked up in this small courtyard, her heart was like flowing in a frying pan, and she was suffering endlessly. She even thought of suicide, if it wasn't because she was unwilling to bear the burden If he died like this for a crime he had never committed, he was afraid that Luo Tian would never see her again at this time.

Luo Tian was silent for a while, and asked: "Do you still remember what that palace maid looked like? Have you seen her before?"

Luo Mingdu stared at the pattern on Luo Tiandu's clothes, thought for a while, and said: "Round face, young, seventeen or eighteen years old, not tall, when walking, walk with head down In a hurry, for fear that others would see her." She tried to recall, then remembered again, "Also, there is a birthmark on the inside of her left wrist, it's red, it's not big." She compared The size of that birthmark.

After hearing this, Luo Tian shook his head slowly: "Eldest sister, there is no such palace attendant in Cuijin Garden."

Luo Mingdu also understood what was going on, but his expression became much calmer, and he said slowly: "Xiaodu, seeing you, I am more at ease, don't worry, I will be fine, you go back."

Luo Tiandu grew up with Luo Mingdu since she was a child, sleeping on a kang and eating in a bowl, she understands her thoughts quite well, she looks at Luo Mingdu with a smile on her face, but in her heart she doesn't know how much it is. Sad, what happened to Qi Jin back then made her want to become a monk and become an aunt. Now that she has been so slandered by others, she doesn't know what stupid things she will do.

She could only comfort her in a low voice: "Sister, don't be afraid. You have never done these things. What are you afraid of? A wise person like the Empress would not wrong a good person."

Luo Mingdu seemed to look away, the corners of his mouth pursed, he smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Well, I believe Xiaodu's words, I know you have protected your family since childhood, but this time, you must not For my sake, disobey the empress."

Luo Tiandu was startled, suddenly an ominous premonition arose in his heart, he looked at Luo Mingdu and said, "Sister, what do you want to say?"

Luo Mingdu's expression was very calm: "Xiaodu, you are smarter and more capable than eldest sister. From now on, parents will depend on you. You must honor your parents, take good care of Zijin, and live well with Master Wei. You must not be brave at will, you know?"

Luo Tian's heart skipped a beat, the more he listened to these words, the more they seemed like confessing his last words.She looked at Luo Mingdu and said sharply: "Luo Mingdu, what do you want to do? Think about father and mother, think about Zijin, and quickly throw away those silly thoughts in your mind! What a big deal, it's worth it! To die or to live?"

Even Luo Ming was told the truth by her, and couldn't bear it any longer, tears welled up in his eyes, and even cried loudly while holding Luo Tian.

She is also not reconciled, why is their family so good, and never have the slightest idea of ​​calculating others, but why so many people want to harm them?

"Don't think about anything. There will always be a time when things come to light. You can wait for them with peace of mind. Don't have any other silly thoughts." Luo Tian stroked her hair and told her over and over again, until Luo Tian Mingdu nodded in agreement, and felt relieved when he could no longer have any strange thoughts.

The two maids guarding the gate outside heard too much movement in the room, so they poked their heads outside, but they didn't dare to speak out to remind each other, they were very embarrassed.

The female officer who came with her saw it, coughed, and said: "It's getting late, Mrs. Wei should go back first, if someone sees it, it will be bad for the eldest lady's reputation."

Luo Tiandu was really reluctant to part with Luo Mingdu, but the lady officer reminded her that the most urgent task now is to find out who is plotting against Luo Mingdu, and to find the court lady, otherwise this time, Luo Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won't be able to wash away the famous capital.

The female officer heard the conversation between the two sisters, and vaguely guessed the meaning of Luo Ming's desire to die, so she persuaded: "Eldest lady, please relax, everything is decided by the empress and your majesty, don't make any mistakes." What a stupid thing, otherwise, wouldn't it be taking advantage of other people's hearts."

After Luo Tiandu instructed Luo Mingdu, he followed the female officer out of the courtyard and asked, "This sister, where is the guard who keeps slandering my elder sister?"

The female officer stopped and said solemnly: "This is not something Mrs. Wei should know."

Luo Tiandu sneered, and said: "I didn't want to worry about it at first, I was only afraid that the guard would become a cold corpse tomorrow after this delay, and by then who should I tell my eldest sister's grievances to?" ?”

That female official is usually highly valued by the empress, and she is also of great status in the palace. Even some concubines who are not favored will be respectful when they see her. When they have ever been contradicted like this, they feel very unhappy for a moment, and said coldly : "Mrs. Wei be cautious."

Luo Tiandu hated him to death, but because of his status, he had to endure it, and went back to "Cuijin Garden" to discuss with Wei Que.

The female official sent Luo Tiandu out of Dongyuan, and returned to Empress Ning herself.

"How? What did the eldest lady of the Luo family say?" It was already four o'clock, and Empress Ning hadn't rested yet. Seeing her enter the room, she asked aloud.

"Miss Luo only said that a court lady lured her to the bamboo forest, but she didn't know about it." The female official answered honestly.

"Lady of the palace? Which palace?" Empress Ning frowned when she heard this. She has been in charge of the Sixth Palace for many years, and now such a scandal has happened under her nose. She is naturally very annoyed.

The female officer thought about it carefully, and said after thinking for a while: "Servant listen carefully, that maid is a bit like the palace maid who holds the lamp in Yong'an Palace."

When Empress Ning heard this, she became irritable.

Yong'an Palace?Can't that woman surnamed Wan be quiet for two days?A majestic imperial concubine, using this kind of obscene method to embarrass a little girl, is really living more and more, without any progress.

She waved her hand, and said: "Back off, it's good to look at the eldest lady of the Luo family, and forgive her, don't you really let her do something stupid." If you really let Luo Ming die in this palace Well, she just has a mouth full all over her body, so she can't tell Emperor Tianqi clearly.

"Yes." The female officer gave her a blessing and quietly retreated.

After this incident happened, naturally no one was willing to stay to cool off.The next day, Empress Ning ordered everyone to pack up and prepare to return to the palace.

Luo Tian was eager to return to Beijing immediately so that Wei Que could investigate the matter of the guard.

In order to take care of Luo Mingdu's face, and to show that the empress and empress still value Luo Mingdu, on the return journey, Empress Ning specially asked Luo Mingdu to ride in a carriage with her, but she didn't seem to have the slightest grudge .

What happened in the bamboo forest last night was not only seen by Empress Ning, but also by many concubines and court wives who accompanied Empress Ning to the opera.Empress Ning can make an example and strictly order the courtiers to discuss casually. In order to avoid leaking news, she can even execute all those courtiers to death, but she can't kill all the court wives. Those women like gossip the most, not to mention they are so immoral As for the matter, after you went back, you and I discussed it early. When I set off to return to Beijing today, I looked at Luo Mingdu with an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.

On the day he returned to Beijing, Wei Que was called into the palace, and he didn't come back until the early morning of the next day, full of blood.

Luo Tiandu hardly slept in those two nights, and stayed at home, waiting anxiously for Wei Que to come back. When he saw him, he asked, "Where's my eldest sister? Is she okay? Can the matter be clarified?"

Emperor Xuanwei's lack of entry into the palace was indeed for Luo Mingdu's affairs, but things did not go well. When the guard was in the palace, he had been guarded by the queen's people, but nothing happened. He returned to Shangjing and handed him over. When he arrived at the clan mansion, Wei Que was gone before he entered the palace.

The bodyguard's family background is also very clean. There is no one in his hometown. He is a bachelor. He worked hard on the battlefield in his early years and earned some military merits. Later, he entered the Yonghe Palace and became an ordinary bodyguard.

Not only the guard, but also the maid with the round face and the birthmark on her hand is also missing, not to mention Concubine Wan Gui's Yongan Palace, Queen Ning searched the entire harem, but couldn't find her, because of this, Queen Ning was still arrested by Wan Guifei The imperial concubine sneered wantonly.

"That means there is no proof of death?" Luo Tian was dumbfounded when he heard that.

With all the witnesses gone, isn't her eldest sister guilty of this crime?
"Then what about my eldest sister?" Luo Tiandu was most worried about this.

Wei Que washed his face with cold water, lifted his spirits, and said, "Your sister is fine, she will be home in two days."

Luo Tian knew that Wei Que always kept his word, since he said nothing happened, Luo Mingdu would definitely come back safe and sound in the end.Luo Baisu and Fang didn't know how to worry about such a big incident, so they said, "Wei Que, I want to go back to my mother's house today, and I don't know how worried father and mother are."

Wei Kuang nodded and said, "I'm busy these few days, so it's better if you go home and spend more time with your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

The guard died strangely, Wei Que didn't sleep for two nights in order to find out the cause of his death, this morning he finally found out, he came back to change his clothes, and went to the palace again.

After Wei Que left, Luo Tiandu tidied up hastily and went to Luo Mansion.

Fang's couple also vaguely heard the wind, and they were so anxious that they didn't know what to do. Seeing Luo Tiandu came back, Fang seemed to have a backbone, and asked repeatedly: "Xiaodu, what is your eldest sister doing?" What happened? How did I hear about her..."

Fang can't say the following words, Luo Ming was raised by her alone, she still knows what kind of temperament that child is, she will never do something like meeting a man privately, and there is no need, Luo Ming has taken a fancy to it Whoever, just tell her, she and Luo Bai Suwan have no disagreement, she really doesn't need to be sneaky.

Luo Tiandu comforted her and said: "Mother, it's okay, Eldest Sister will be back in a few days, don't scare yourself at home."

Fang glanced at her, and tears were about to fall: "I don't know what kind of temperament your elder sister is. It's clear that someone is trying to harm her. Why don't I worry about it."
