"Are you sure this is the blood sample taken from the baby in Shouning Hou's mansion?"
Qian Wubing frowned and looked at the water bowl in front of him. There was a look of disbelief on his face. In front of him, there were two water bowls. The one on the left was the baby boy from the Imperial Academy.
The blood taken from the body. The blood beads in this bowl could not be fused with Li Feng'er's blood. It seemed to be expected, and he didn't find it too surprising. However, the bowl on the right came from the concubine of Shouning Hou's family.
The ones taken from the baby boys generally did not fuse, which surprised him a little.
In his heart, he had long believed that Shouning Hou must have something to do with this matter, but the scene before him seemed to have wiped out all his beliefs.
"Yes!" Yan Jiu replied with certainty. In order to sneak into the heavily guarded Shouning Hou Mansion, he spent a lot of effort. If it weren't for the few old iron guards sent by Mu Tianqiu to attack the generals in the Hou Mansion.
The family general is being lured away, and he is not sure that he will be able to complete the task. At this time, Shouning Hou's mansion is probably still trying to catch the thief with great fanfare!
Qian Wubing looked at Mu Tianqiu, and Mu Tianqiu nodded slowly, confirming Yan Jiu's words. When the blood was taken, his people were watching. When he came back, he directly
When they arrived at Qian's house, Yan Jiu didn't even have the chance to switch the package. It wasn't that Qian Wubing couldn't trust the loyal Yan Jiu, it was just that this matter was too important, and no matter how careful you were, you should be cautious.
I thought that with this secret method of identifying relatives by combining blood, the little prince would be identified immediately, and the real culprit behind the scenes would be revealed. But now it seems that this road is impossible.
Qian Wubing didn't speak, and sat down silently, with a lingering depression on his brows. If this didn't work, where would he go to find the little prince who had been missing for more than a month?
There was silence in the study, as if the air had become heavy. The Yan family brothers and the Mu family father and daughter also kept their mouths tightly shut. The matter had reached a dead end. At present, their clues only left the case of Qian Ning's assassination.
One line is broken, and this line is easy to be cut off. Once this only line is broken, there is almost nothing they can do.
I don't know how long it took until Mu Siniang gently pulled her father's hand and pointed towards the water bowl on the table.
"Sir!" Mu Tianqiu's voice was trembling: "Sir, look!"
Qian Wubing raised his head and followed Mu Tianqiu's gaze. At this glance, he was suddenly stunned.
"It's together, it's together!" Yan Jiu murmured to himself. In the bowl of clear water on the table that originally made Qian Wubing decadent, two small and large blood beads were slowly merging together.
In the sight of everyone in the study, they finally turned into a blood mass that could no longer be distinguished from each other.
Qian Wuyi turned his head and looked at the water bowl on the left. The two blood beads were still two blood beads, suspended in the clear water, with no intention of joining together.
"Sure enough, it's him!" Qian Wubing was in a good mood: "Our people are all waiting. We will gather people immediately and go to Shouning Hou's Mansion. Don't say anything, just control the concubine and the little prince. I'll go there."
Your Majesty, please give me your order!"
"Sir, I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower!" Yan Jiu said with a bitter face to Qian Wubing: "The generals in Shouning Hou's family only have one or two hundred, and what our Nanya can use is only about three hundred.
people!"
"We are not attacking Shouning Hou's Mansion. Your mission is to protect the little prince!" Qian Wubing glared at him and immediately felt that it was inappropriate. The Jin Yiwei went there with great fanfare. Shouning Hou was not a fool and must have known.
If he commits a crime of his own, what if he jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the number of people he has is really not enough! Besides, while guarding against him jumping over the wall in a hurry, we also have to guard against him really getting carried away and harming the little prince.
If the little prince was really killed by him, no one in the civil and military circles of the court would believe what he said.
"In the first few thousand-household offices in Beijing, if the matter is urgent, sir, you can allocate some manpower. If nothing else, at least someone in the Xichang Qianhu Office will listen to your words!" Mu Tianqiu said from the side.
The idea was, "These people may not be of great use, but it is always possible to build a strong momentum. However, since then, things have become serious. Thousands of people have besieged Shouning Hou Mansion. It is midnight again, I'm afraid
There will be chaos in Beijing for a while."
"Sir, you'd better ask for the order first, otherwise, I'm afraid it won't end well afterwards!"
Asking for an edict at this time? Qian Wubing even doubted whether he could get it. After seeing Zhu Houzhao, he had to explain the reasons and then produce evidence. This went back and forth, and when there was a delay, he calculated it until he had a clue.
When I came out, I was afraid it would be dawn soon. After so many days, it would be nothing if I waited more than midnight.
"Our people have been keeping an eye on Shouninghou Mansion, right?" he thought for a moment and asked.
The Yan family brothers nodded in unison.
"I'm going to ask Concubine Jing to speak to Your Majesty about this matter. It should be easier for Your Majesty to believe it than what I say. You take people and wait for orders near Shouning Hou Mansion. From now on, I will follow Your Majesty's instructions.
Back there, without my order, even if a mosquito flies out of Shouninghou Mansion, you have to catch it for me!"
"Yes!" The Yan brothers responded, turned around and walked out.
"Uncle Mu, please dispatch the manpower in the yamen and find some trustworthy people, let the Yan family brothers take them to work!!"
"Understood!" Mu Tianqiu also turned and left.
"Siniang, you are not in good health, just stay with me and come with me to see His Majesty!" Qian Wubing turned around and greeted Mu Siniang. They were the only two left in the study.
Mu Siniang stared at the slowly dissipating blood beads and suddenly raised her head, "It turns out that this medicine will take a while to start taking effect!"
Qian Wubing's heart moved slightly, as if he remembered something. However, at this time, he no longer had time to waste his thoughts on this unimportant place. He straightened his clothes and walked out. Mu Siniang smiled slightly.
He was stunned for a moment and hurriedly followed him.
A group of well-armed guards were walking on the street. Not to mention the night patrol soldiers from the Military and Horse Division who did not dare to come and inquire. Even the censor who patrolled the streets asked questions from a distance when he saw them. Even those who came closer to inquire carefully
I have no interest at all. The Jin Yiwei dispatched at this time is the god of plague, and it is uncertain which official will be unlucky. No one will be affected by this kind of bad luck.
When he saw the palace building of the Leopard Room from a distance, Qian Wubing was stopped by the leopard guards on the outside. Qian Wubing didn't know this group of leopard guards, but someone in this group of leopard guards seemed to know him, as usual.
After checking their identities and leaving behind their weapons, Qian Wubing and others were brought close to the Leopard Room.
"Your Majesty is staying in the palace?" Qian Wubing smiled dryly, "I'm actually here to ask for an audience with the Imperial Concubine!"
Of course, the only one who could make Qian Wubing smile and conceal his purpose was Zhang Yong, who came after hearing the news. Normally, it would have to be something very big to ask for a meeting after hearing the news. When Qian Wubing heard that he
He almost twisted his nose with anger at this answer.
"Please don't be in such a hurry to see your Majesty!" Zhang Yongpi said with a smile: "If you break into the palace at night, it will be a crime you can't bear to offend anyone. Even if Mr. Qian is favored by Your Majesty and Your Majesty, you won't be able to bear it."
It should be so unruly!"
He squinted at the few servants, five or six guards, and a female doll behind Qian Wubing. It seemed that he really had something to see Concubine Jing. Could it be that the matter he was currently investigating had already come to fruition.
Qian Wubing's face looked a little sad. If Zhang Yong made things difficult, he really wouldn't be able to see Li Feng'er. Outside the palace, he could play tricks with Zhang Yong, but in this palace, if he dares to play tricks, Zhang Yong will
But he would definitely dare to put any hat on his head.
"Okay, I won't ask the Zajia family anymore. This is not something that we slaves care about in the first place!" Zhang Yongjian said in a thin voice. At this moment, he didn't know how many thoughts passed through his mind. Anyway, His Majesty is not in the Leopard Room.
, Li Feng'er is Qian Wubing's sister, even if he comes in, nothing will happen. He doesn't want to offend Qian Wubing to death.
Thinking of this, his face softened slightly and his voice became much softer.
"Wu Shi, please sit down for a while!" He lowered his head and said a few words quickly: "The rules are the rules. With so many people watching, the Zajia family must say a few words. Why are you looking so ugly?"
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Qian Wubing looked at the sky. It was already dark now. In more than an hour, it will be dawn: "How about I just wait here?"
"Hey, the Za family is a hard worker. How big of a sin is it to disturb the queen? Let the Za family work hard again. If the queen gets angry later, Mr. Qian, you have to bear more responsibility for the Za family in front of the queen!"
Zhang Yong said loudly, Qian Wubing smiled and nodded.
After saying this, Zhang Yong glanced at Qian Wubing, his eyes full of deep meaning, and then, with a few little Qingyi, he walked slowly and leisurely towards the depths of the Leopard Room. This is not a good sale, but this is also
Qian Wubing should understand the taste of being able to show that he has no intention of going against him.
Li Feng'er's sleep was very light. When Zhang Yong woke her up, she thought it was Zhu Houzhao who had come back from the palace. When she heard Qian Wubing asking for a meeting outside, the remaining sleepiness disappeared from her mind.
, became surprised and worried.
After Qian Wubing followed Zhang Yong to Li Feng'er's palace, Zhang Yong had been waiting outside the palace. Although he knew clearly that he could not hear the whispers of the two people inside, he still tried hard to open his ears and try to hear a few words.
Come.
Qian Wubing was in Li Feng'er's bedroom. He stayed there for only one stick of incense before being sent out of the Leopard Room by Zhang Yong. However, the candles in Li Feng'er's bedroom kept burning until dawn. That night, Li Feng'er was destined to have no sleep.
, and Zhang Yong was not much better than her. In fact, Qian Wubing was not the only one who couldn't sleep that night in the capital. Li Feng'er, Zhang Yong and the others were in Shouninghou Mansion because of the commotion in the middle of the night.
Thief, there are no more people sleeping in the whole house than ever before. Among them, of course, is the owner of Shouning Hou's residence, Shouning Hou Zhang Heling.
