Crazy batch of female partners is not easy to mess with

Master Shangshu stayed alone in the room for a long time. This Lord Shangshu can be regarded as a legend of the Chengyong Dynasty. She is not like an ordinary aristocratic family. There is a huge family behind her to support her. Every step she took was due to the imperial examination system of this dynasty. She was the beneficiary of the first imperial examination system, so the Chengyong Dynasty has always respected the imperial examination system with her as its representative. of.

Later, the fourth princess Rong Shang also joined her camp. The two seemed to have a tacit understanding to make the civil service of the Chengyong Dynasty better and better, even surpassing the military attachés, so that in the later period of the Chengyong Dynasty, all civil servants controlled the court. .

It can be said that she started from the grassroots, but step by step she entered the battlefield to compete with the noble families of the aristocratic families, but this battlefield was in the court.

Lord Shangshu is now over 40 years old, but she still looks as energetic as a woman in her 30s. Her hair is combed high. Lord Shangshu is still unmarried. She has spent her whole life above the Chengyong Dynasty. Emperor Chengyong She had been offered marriage many times, but she refused. No one knew whether she had a man she liked.

And at this moment. She has been sitting in this room for about two hours, and no one has come to report to her the results of Xie Qingxuan's search. This minister's name is Song Lin. She came up with this name herself. No one knows what Song Lin's real name is. It is said that when she was preparing for the exam that year, she was so depressed that she didn't even have a place to live. There happened to be a bamboo forest outside the capital, which was very shady. There is an abandoned one in the bamboo forest. No one lived in the house, so she spent an unforgettable time there rushing to take the exam. After passing the exam, she changed her name to Song Lin. To commemorate that time.

The Examination Yuan was also established by her, so that more poor people like her could have the opportunity to realize their ambitions and achievements. Thinking of this, Song Lin drank a glass of wine and poured herself another glass, but she didn't drink from this glass. The glass Song Lin used was not a small wine glass. But a bowl. In the room at this moment, several clusters of candlelight were shining leisurely. Half of Song Lin's face is printed with some vicissitudes of life. At this time, it seems that Song Lin's true age can be felt from her face. When Song Lin watched the wine in the glass sloshing around, reflecting her own face, she suddenly felt a little strange.

She knew it, how could she not know it. How big of an impact does that have on the Samdrup people? Thinking of this, she put down the wine glass and did not drink it. Instead, she dipped her finger into the wine glass and wrote the words "mulberry flower" on the table with her wet fingers. Her eyes were dark, illuminated by candlelight. It seems to be filled with countless traces of sadness. But no one knew what she was thinking.

"Sir!" sounded outside the door at this moment. The voice of Song Lin's personal guard.

"Have you found it?" Song Lin's voice was light. He was not as comfortable as he was in the court, but he still did not live up to the gentle atmosphere of the court, with obvious murderous intent in his tone. The guard hesitated.

"What went wrong?" Song Lin was not in a hurry. Over the years, she had already developed the ability to be calm.

"Sir, we chased a figure just now when it came to your place and then disappeared."

"Come to my place?"

"Yes! Sir, we just searched the cabin at the stern of the ship. We found a suspicious figure, and we followed him. It turned out that he was coming to your room. When we wanted to explore further, The others are gone. The adults are safe inside."

"I'm fine." Song Lin said and frowned.

"My lord, do you really need me to go in?"

"No need," Song Lin said. Suddenly the candles in the room were extinguished. Feeling the sudden secret in the room, the guard outside the door seemed to understand what Song Lin meant. He had followed Song Lin for many years.

"My lord, I will be at the door if necessary. Please call me according to the old rules."

Song Lin did not respond to the words of the guard outside the door. All the candles in the whole house were extinguished. If you listen carefully, you can still hear the faint breathing of the guards outside Song Lin's door. Nothing else. About half an hour later, there was still no movement in the room, and then Song Lin couldn't sit still anymore.

"You really saw someone here, someone coming here."

"Yes, sir, we followed you and then disappeared." However, there seemed to be no movement after such a long time. Song Lin just sprinkled medicinal powder in the darkness. If someone really inhaled this powder, there would be someone. There was no movement at all, but nothing at all.

Song Lin nodded silently in the darkness. It seems to be responding to what is in his heart.

This personal guard has been with Song Lin for many years. Song Lin had great trust in him. If he really sees someone, walks this way and disappears...

Adding the medicinal powder...

"My lord, something is not right." At this moment, the madam suddenly appeared in a hurry, interrupting the conversation between Song Lin and the guard. There was a distinct rustling sound at the door. This guard must have stopped the madam from entering.

"What's the matter?" Song Lin's voice was very steady.

"My lord, I'm sorry, the secret message we passed on just now. One person is missing,"

"What did you say?"

"It seems to have been robbed. When we found it, only the token was left. In other words, the news we just passed on. The message to transfer Sangsangzhu may not have been conveyed, or maybe." The old bustard said His voice became smaller and smaller, and he seemed to have a guilty conscience, "Or maybe it was robbed. Sir, what would happen if the place where Sangzhihua was hidden was discovered by others? Hiding poisons privately was expressly prohibited by the Chengyong Dynasty. Yes, I cannot bear this responsibility. When the time comes, sir..."

"That's enough." Song Lin slammed the table, stopping the sound of the table and her voice, and the madam continued. "You should be very clear about some things that you should say and some things that you shouldn't say."

"Yes, yes, sir, what you are saying is that now that one of the people is missing, what should we do? Should we continue to pass on the news, or?"

"It seems I have to go there myself."

"It's not good, it's not good," some noisy voices came from the moment when eternity was approaching, "It's gone, it's gone."

"Why is this so good that it's leaking water?" The old bustard looked at the source of the very strange sound. From Song Lin's window, he could also see thick smoke gradually drifting towards this side. It was obvious that the water leaked somewhere.

"It was fine just now, why did it suddenly catch on fire? Sir, let me go and take a look first,"

"Okay!" Song Lin nodded.

After the old bustard left, Song Lin gave the order to follow him without making any mistakes.

"It's my lord." After the guard left, Song Lin took out a bunch of keys from her wide sleeves, and she frowned. Finally decided to get up.

She turned around and walked not towards the door, but towards the inner room of the house.
