The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 417 417. Spy

"Go and find Ziteng. I have something to ask her."

"yes."

Jinxiu thought that her lady was going to admire Wisteria, so she hurried to find someone.

As soon as he entered the door, Liang Luo scolded him, "Kneel down!"

Jinxiu had never seen a young lady speak to her so harshly. On the contrary, Ziteng next to her remained calm and did not panic at all when she knelt down.

Looking at her expression and movements, Liang Luo was even more sure that this person was not an idle person.

So he opened his mouth and asked.

 “Who sent you?”

I thought she might be quibbling, and he was ready to expose her situation, but to his surprise, Ziteng was very straightforward, and the eyes he looked at Liang Luo were full of calmness.

 “The slaves are from Prince Ke’s palace.”

Prince Ke?

He and the Ninth Prince are sworn enemies. Why would he send a maid to her yard at this time?

Before she could speak, Ziteng took the lead and spoke.

 “Sir Liang, something happened in Jinling City.”

"What!"

Jin Xiu was no less surprised than Liang Luo. She was now with Liang Luo, and her every word and deed represented Liang Luo. Similarly, if Liang Luo had no chance, she would only be stepped down even lower.

 So, the more firmly Liang Quanbin stands in Jinling City, the stronger their backbone becomes in the backyard.

　　I immediately pulled Wisteria anxiously and asked.

 “What’s wrong, sir?”

“Master Liang was robbed and killed many times in Jinling City and is now missing.”

When he heard the word missing, Liang Luo's heart dropped for the most part, always feeling that this was not a good sign.

 She has only regained her prestige in the past few days, but she didn't expect "retribution" to come so soon!

If other people knew about this, it would not only be Concubine Ruan who would backlash against her, but she would also be useless to the Ninth Prince.

 Once she is useless, what awaits her will never be a peaceful retirement.

I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep peacefully.

I thought about the worst-case scenario in my mind, but I still looked at Ziteng with a suspicious look on his face.

 “How do you know about my father?”

“Prince Ke’s Mansion has its own way of finding out, but if Miss Liang doesn’t save herself, I’m afraid you will be the next one to go missing.”

 It seemed to be comforting, but in fact it sounded like a threat.

 “After all, you hold a big secret in your hands.”

When Ziteng said the word "secret", Liang Luo was shocked. She thought it was airtight, how come even a little girl knew about it!

Is it possible that the eldest prince has already monitored them?

 But it’s not right. She didn’t even reveal the slightest bit about her brother and sister-in-law. Even if she was under surveillance, she shouldn’t know about it.

Looking at Jinxiu, Liang Luo gave vigilant orders.

 “You go and guard the door and don’t let anyone get close.”

"yes!"

Jinxiu has served in a powerful family for many years, so she naturally knows what to listen to and what not to listen to. When Ziteng revealed the big secret, she actually wanted to leave, but she just didn't know how to speak.

Now that he has received Liang Luo's order, he is walking very fast.

After the others went out, Liang Luocai stared at Ziteng and asked, his eyes full of suspicion and vigilance.

"What do you know?" "Prince Li has an extremely favored personal guard named Ling Guang. He is the person who has stayed with Prince Li the longest in the past few years. What does Miss Liang think?"

 After saying one sentence, Liang Luo was so shocked that he was speechless.

She didn’t expect that this secret would be discovered by so many people, so the Ninth Prince’s trap must have been exposed more than once.

A chill suddenly came over her body, and she wanted to argue that she didn't know what she was talking about, but Ziteng's eyes were staring at her, and she didn't even have the courage to speak.

 “What are you going to do?”

 After a while, Liang Luo breathed a sigh of relief, as if the heavy stone that had been weighing on his heart for many days had been removed, and he felt briefly relieved.

Ziteng is the best at discerning people's hearts. When she saw Liang Luo like this, she knew that everything was probably fine.

"Your Majesty means that if Miss Liang is willing to come forward and expose this matter, he will definitely find a way to protect you. If Mr. Liang is still alive, he will return it to Zhao intact."

Liang Luo sneered, "Do you think I'm a fool? Tell this matter out? If your Majesty knows this kind of royal secret, it will definitely not be the prince who dies, but me and that person. Who knows who will be dead?" What kind of dirty water are you going to get thrown at me?"

"Miss Liang, don't worry. If you go straight to expose it, you will be in danger. But if you are burdened with countless crimes and are just waiting for the final fatal blow, this is a good sharp blade."

"You want to plot something else against him?"

“The road is dangerous and obstructive, so you won’t have to prepare only one hand, right?”

Liang Luo fell silent, shuddering as he recalled the time he made a scene in Prince Ke's Mansion.

If it weren't for the abilities of her relatives and their status in the court, I'm afraid her head would have been twisted off by Princess Ke to vent her anger.

She didn't expect that Prince Ke's palace was so deep, but she didn't notice it at all. She thought that when the two of them were compared, the somewhat sinister Ninth Prince might have deeper thoughts.

The road is at her feet, and she can choose to walk or not.

If nothing had happened to her father, she would not have fought against the odds, but the current situation no longer allowed her to have any other way out.

“Miss Liang doesn’t need to give an answer now. I believe that the news of Mr. Liang’s disappearance will spread back to Dongdu City in the near future. It will not be too late for you to make a decision by then.”

Liang Luo has no interest in rashly revealing the secrets of the royal family.

 But now that people are under the eaves, they can only lower their heads and obey orders.

But he still didn’t let go so quickly.

In the following days, Liang Luo lived with a little fear. On the one hand, he wanted to verify whether Zi Teng's words were true. On the other hand, he was afraid that the news of his father's disappearance would spread to Dongdu City, and those women who were looking down on him would come to entangle him.

 So it’s not comfortable.

On the other hand, Ziteng was doing what she had to do, and was not affected by what she said that day at all. She was still very well-behaved.

Anyone who looks at her will feel that this girl is useful.

Just when undercurrents began to surge in Prince Li's palace, an urgent letter from Feng Jinxu was sent to his second uncle's home in Liangzhou in the northwest through the channels of Prince Ding's palace.

When he interrogated a group of gardeners and domestic servants who harmed Mrs. Feng, all the clues were cut off by a man named Cui Tou.

He sent people to conduct a secret investigation but found few clues.

 Instead, in a summary of news about Ling's return to the country, I discovered some similarities but similar approaches.

 Green Flame Flower, this thing costs a lot of money.

He checked carefully in the market in Dongdu City and found that no one could have this flower.

 But he always felt that there was some indescribable connection with Ling Guiguo, so he checked again and again and finally found some evidence.
