The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy

Lane 18, East Street.

Having heard about the Crown Prince's plan during the day, Liang Shenlin and Bai Qiuyuan were worried and had not gone to bed yet.

At this time, both of them were sitting in Bai Qiuyuan's room.

Thinking that there was no news from Luoyang Inn, Liang Shenlin became restless and stood up suddenly. He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth in front of Bai Qiuyuan, frowning and saying, "Master Bai, should I go to Luoyang Inn?"

Spread out in front of Bai Qiuyuan was still the book "One Hundred and Eight Kinds of Torture".

Hearing this, Bai Qiuyuan reluctantly moved his gaze away from the book. He raised his eyes and glanced towards the window. He saw that it was pitch black outside with only a faint moonlight shining through.

"If General Liang goes out at this time, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of others."

The spies guarding the house never left.

Liang Shenlin immediately understood what Lord Bai meant and couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. After all, he was too impatient and almost forgot their current situation.

Liang Shenlin raised his hand and patted his forehead, taking a deep breath, "Fortunately, Mr. Bai reminded me, otherwise, I would have done something stupid!"

Bai Qiuyuan sighed softly: "General Liang is just too concerned."

After all, he is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the next emperor of Li. It is normal for General Liang to care about the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Not to mention General Liang, wasn't he himself also waiting for news from Luoyang Inn?

He is loyal to the Emperor, and the Emperor values ​​His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the most. Naturally, he does not want to see anything happen to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's decision to sneak into the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion in person this time is really too risky.

Liang Shenlin sighed: "Then I will wait a little longer."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

Liang Shenlin stared at the door immediately, his sharp eyes seemed to see through it.

"Who?"

"General, it's my subordinate."

Liang Shenlin heard that it was Min Chenghe, whom he had sent out to gather information, who had returned.

Could it be that there is news coming from Luoyang Inn?

Thinking of this, Liang Shenlin suddenly became a little excited. He returned to the table and sat down, saying loudly, "Come in."

Min Chenghe pushed open the door and strode in.

Liang Shenlin couldn't wait to ask, "Chenghe, what did you find out?"

Min Chenghe said: "In reply to the general, just half an hour ago, the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion suddenly caught fire..."

"What!?"

Liang Shenlin stood up again with a shocked expression and interrupted Min Chenghe, "Why did the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion suddenly catch fire? Are there any casualties? Also, is there any movement at Luoyang Inn?"

Min Chenghe is Liang Shenlin's confidant and is extremely trustworthy.

However, as the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was concerned, Liang Shenlin did not tell him the news that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come to Jiangning. He only instructed Min Chenghe to keep an eye on the movements in Luoyang Inn at all times, and to come back and report to him immediately if he noticed anything.

Bai Qiuyuan also stared at Min Chenghe, wanting to get the answer from him.

Being stared at by the two adults, Min Chenghe did not show any fear and said calmly: "Regarding the fire in the Governor's Mansion, the cause has not yet been determined, and there are no casualties."

"As for Luoyang Inn, I received a note."

"The note? Take it out and let me see it."

Liang Shenlin hurriedly walked up to Min Chenghe and extended his hand to him.

Min Chenghe took out a note from his arms and handed it to General Liang.

Bai Qiuyuan also stood up and strode to the side of General Liang.

Unrolling the rolled-up note, Liang Shenlin immediately recognized the handwriting on the paper -

It was the Crown Prince's handwriting.

This is enough to prove that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned safely to Luoyang Inn.

[Jiangnan Governor Shi Wei'an has returned to Jiangning. Please ask General Liang and Lord Bai to handle it with caution.]

Just this one sentence made Liang Shenlin and Bai Qiuyuan's faces instantly become solemn.

Liang Shenlin raised his hand and ordered calmly: "Chenghe, you go out first."

"Yes, I am resigning."

Min Chenghe turned and walked out.

After leaving the room, Min Chenghe turned around and closed the door before leaving.

Liang Shenlin placed the note on the candle flame and let it burn. His eyes darkened slightly and he said solemnly, "I didn't expect Shi Wei'an to come back so soon."

"Fortunately, the invitations to the banquet for officials from Jiangnan have been sent out. Otherwise, if Shi Wei'an knew about this, I don't know what he would do."

"General Liang is relieved too early."

Bai Qiuyuan is not as optimistic as General Liang.

The invitations had indeed been sent out, but it was still unknown whether the officials who received the invitations would come to Jiangning for the banquet.

Liang Shenlin heard this and looked at Bai Qiuyuan in surprise: "What exactly does Lord Bai mean by this?"

Bai Qiuyuan raised his eyes and glanced at General Liang, then said slowly, "Jiangnan has long been under the control of Shi Weian. Officials serving in Jiangnan almost obey Shi Weian's orders. Once Shi Weian speaks up to obstruct this matter, it is very likely that no one will dare to come to the banquet."

"hiss"

Liang Shenlin took a breath of cold air.

What Lord Bai said is not impossible.

Liang Shenlin immediately became anxious. This was something that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had assigned to them, and they must not mess it up!

"Master Bai, if things really come to that point, what should we do?"

Bai Qiuyuan was silent for a moment, "I will send someone to deliver the invitation to the Governor's Mansion tomorrow."

After a pause, Bai Qiuyuan changed his mind again: "I'm sure Shi Wei'an will come in person tomorrow, so you and I can just stay in the house and wait."

Liang Shenlin asked, "Does that mean you won't send out invitations?"

“No need to send it.”

Bai Qiuyuan said thoughtfully: "I will bring up this matter in front of Shi Weian tomorrow. According to my guess, Shi Weian will not refuse."

Liang Shenlin's eyes suddenly lit up: "That makes sense!"

"No matter what, Lord Bai and I are here to investigate the case under the Emperor's order. Shi Wei'an certainly won't dare to refuse in person!"

"Ah."

Bai Qiuyuan thought exactly that.

If Shi Weian dared to refuse, it would mean he was deliberately obstructing the imperial commissioner from handling the case, and he would naturally have a way to suppress Shi Weian.

"Then I'll wait to watch the show tomorrow."

When Liang Shenlin thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was safe and that he would be able to see Shi Weian being humiliated again tomorrow, he instantly felt refreshed, and even his sleepiness disappeared without a trace.

However, at this time, he still had to go back to his room to rest.

"Master Bai, if there is nothing else important, I will go back first."

Bai Qiuyuan shook his head and reminded: "General Liang, please go slowly. We don't know when Shi Weian will come to visit. General Liang should not go out tomorrow."
