The people under Li Ying were very agile, and quickly found out Lin Qingzhi's identity.

She is from Yangchuan County, and her father is a seventh-rank official, because she was accidentally involved in a party struggle.

Father Lin was exiled as cannon fodder.

It didn't take long for the news that Lin's father died of illness while in exile. Lin's mother couldn't bear the blow and soon died of illness.

Lin Qingzhi originally had an older brother.

The brother and sister planned to leave Yangchuan County and go to seek refuge with their grandfather's family far away in Shangjing.

It's a pity that her brother was unlucky, he contracted an emergency on the way, and died after the doctor's treatment was ineffective.

Lin Qingzhi was the only one left in the whole family.

Her maternal grandfather was the old man of the Han family, and the relationship within the Han family was complicated.

Lin Qingzhi had a bad time when she first arrived at the Han family.

Until she fell into the water due to an accident, and when she woke up, it seemed like a different person, and she began to be eloquent and sociable.

What is even more unexpected is that she actually climbed up to the crown prince's high branch and became a Liangyuan who is very favored by the prince.

However, the good times did not last long.

It didn't take long for the prince to die unexpectedly, and Lin Qingzhi also became a widow, and she might be sent to a nunnery to be shaved and become a nun at any time.

Li Ying asked after listening.

"When did Lin Qingzhi come to Beijing?"

The subordinate replied truthfully: "About a year ago."

Li Ying: "Eleven years ago, did Lin Qingzhi come to Shangjing?"

The subordinate shook his head: "I don't know. It's been too long, and the Lin family is all dead. There is no proof of death, so it's hard to find out."

Li Ying thought for a while: "You find a way to ask someone to go to Han's house to find out if Lin Qingzhi came to Shangjing eleven years ago?"

The Lin family has an in-law relationship with the Han family. If someone from the Lin family went to Beijing eleven years ago and their children were lost, the Han family would know about it.

The subordinates clapped their hands in agreement.

"Here."

Li Ying took out the small purse from his bosom, staring at the several glutinous rice balls embroidered on the purse in a daze.

Is Lin Qingzhi the person he has been looking for?

If so, it would be too coincidental.

But if not, how did she get the news that he was looking for someone?

No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Lin Qingzhi had a lot to ponder.

...

The next day, Wu Wang brought a stack of scrolls to Prince Zhao's Mansion.

In accordance with the emperor's will, he ordered people to unfold those picture scrolls one by one, and put them in front of King Zhao, so that he could choose the woman he liked.

Each painting depicts a young woman with a good figure and appearance.

Li Ji picked up a painting casually and looked at it.

"Too fat."

After speaking, he tore up the portrait.

He picked up the second painting again.

"Too thin."

After speaking, I tore it up again.

"Too ugly."

torn.

"Too dark."

torn.

...

Wu Wang seemed to have expected that King Zhao would do this a long time ago, and he was not in a hurry when he saw this, so he watched King Zhao tear up the painting so quietly.

When King Zhao finished tearing up the paintings, Wu Wang asked someone to take out another stack of scrolls and reminded him.

"The sage said that if you insist on refusing to marry a wife, he can only send Hua Ruren away, so that she won't bewitch your mind again."

Li Ji looked at him coldly.

"Are you threatening the king?"

Wu Wang lowered his head: "This is the meaning of the sage, and the servants are just conveying the truth."

Li Ji didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly chuckled.

"Oh, then please go back and tell the saint, I accept all these portraits."

Wu Wang respectfully said: "You can think carefully about it, and then give a reply after you think it through clearly, and the servant will leave first."

After all the people from the palace had left, Hua Manman dared to enter the house.

Seeing the many portraits on the table, she couldn't help but click her tongue. The battle for choosing a concubine is big enough!

Li Ji was in a bad mood right now.

He glanced at Hua Manman, and when he heard the slander in her heart, he sneered.

"Are you here for a good show?"

Hua Manman was afraid that Chi Yu would be harmed, so he quickly denied it: "No, I don't have time to care about you physically and mentally, so it's hard to watch your good show."

Li Ji raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "If you really feel sorry for me, you should help me share my worries."

Hua Manman felt that the dog man might try to trick her, so she immediately became vigilant in her heart, but she pretended to be concerned on the surface.

"If you have any order, just say it, as long as it can be done by the concubine, the concubine will definitely devote herself to death."

Li Ji hooked his fingers at her, signaling her to come over.

Hua Manman walked over in small steps.

Li Ji stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms, forced her to sit on his lap, and tightly held her waist, not allowing her to get up.

"This king is in urgent need of a concubine right now, are you willing to help?"

Hua Manman said embarrassingly: "I am afraid that I am not worthy of the position of concubine."

Li Ji: "You just need to answer yes or no."

Hua Manman was sitting sideways on Li Ji's lap at this time, and she saw Li Ji's eyes as soon as she looked up.

He was also looking at her steadily.

He doesn't look like he's joking with her.

Hua Manman nodded and agreed without much hesitation.

"The concubine is naturally willing."

Of course she would!

Fools don't want to!

Ruren is nominally a concubine, but in the end she is still a concubine, and she always wants to be inferior to her concubine.

If someone else becomes the main concubine, the long days in the future will definitely not be as comfortable as they are now.

Originally, she planned to move to Zhuangzi by herself after King Zhao married his concubine, far away from King Zhao's family.

But now that King Zhao has given her another choice, she must seize the opportunity!

Li Ji heard what was going on in her heart and knew that she had her own plans.

Instead of being disappointed, he showed a satisfied smile.

He took the trouble to teach Hua Manman, let her learn so many things, he wanted her to live a better life, not to turn her into a fool who couldn't even protect herself.

She knows how to plan for herself, which is good.

Li Ji said with a smile: "It's fine if you want to, other matters will be resolved by me."

Hua Manman is very curious about what King Zhao is going to do?

Three days later she had her answer.

When King Zhao entered the palace to face the saint, he suddenly vomited blood and fainted.

Everyone present was terrified.

The emperor hurriedly ordered someone to invite the imperial physician.

When the imperial physician came over in a hurry, King Zhao had already fallen into a coma and was unconscious.

The emperor stood by, closely watching every move of the imperial physician order.

After the imperial physician ordered the diagnosis and treatment to end, the emperor immediately asked.

"What happened to King Zhao?"

The imperial doctor said tremblingly.

"His Royal Highness King Zhao was poisoned, and there was more than one kind of poison. The reason why he vomited blood and passed out was precisely because the accumulated toxins in his body suddenly broke out."

The emperor was shocked: "How could King Zhao be poisoned?"

Soon the entire Prince Zhao's Mansion was sealed off, and all the people in the mansion were imprisoned and interrogated one by one.

Huamanman is no exception.

She was locked alone in a room, awaiting interrogation.
