Reborn Lord
Chapter 18
Lu Mo Ning waited for an hour before he heard the stone door of the dark room rang again. He straightened the chessboard, then stood up, raised his eyes, and saw Gao Yi coming out with someone in his arms. Bai Jinrong saw Lu Mo Ning, his pale and handsome face was tinged with embarrassment, he coughed lowly, trying to cover it up: "I just... felt sick to my bones, so I went to get a doctor."
It's just that as soon as he said this, the corner of the mouth of the man who was holding him raised, which was quite meaningful.
Bai Jinrong stared at him quietly, then stretched out his hand, and pinched the other's waist vigorously. The man didn't even frown, and put him firmly on the soft couch beside him, and then returned to stand by his side, but When looking at Lu Mo Ning, there was a warning in his eyes.
Lu Mo Ning just pretended that he didn't see the other person's eyes, nor did he see the red mark on Bai Jinrong's neck that was about to be concealed.
Bai Jinrong was probably appeased by Gao Yi in the back, his expression calmed down a lot, and he was no longer excited: "I don't know how to call you?"
Lu Moning didn't hide it: "People from the capital, Lu Moning."
"Lu Mo Ning? This name sounds familiar... Oh? Are you the newly appointed No. [-] Scholar? Zhao Yunji's man?" Bai Jinrong's face suddenly darkened, and his eyebrows became sharper.
Lu Mo Ning's pupils shone slightly: This Boss Bai is quite interesting, he actually called the current Holy Master by his name.
The black snake had turned back into a wooden bead, but the man's voice still sounded: tell him that the person appointed by that person does not mean that he is his person.
Lu Mo Ning was suspicious, and repeated it again, and sure enough, Boss Bai's complexion improved a lot: "How did you know...the news about him? And what do you mean by saying that you haven't seen him for seven years?" Ming Ming four Years ago he had...
Hearing what Black Snake said, Lu Mo Ning was stunned for a moment, and finally repeated: "Boss Bai, just remember that in time, he will come back again."
This time not only Bai Jinrong, but also Gao Yi looked over abruptly, with disbelief and surprise in his eyes: "He... really faked his death?" enter.
Lu Mo Ning lowered his head and glanced at the wooden beads on his wrist. Unable to explain the situation, he lowered his eyes and hummed softly.
It was almost like a switch, causing tears to well up in the corners of Bai Jinrong's originally red eyes, and Bai Jinrong turned his head aside.Gao Yi, however, was even more careful. After calming down, he looked at Lu Mo Ning calmly, and asked a few questions related to the time when the Black Snake was alive. Lu Mo Ning followed the words of the Black Snake, thoroughly It convinced Bai Jinrong and Gao Yi.
Lu Mo Ning saw the tall man who said to Bai Jinrong earlier, "That man died a long time ago", his eyes were inexplicably red, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he did not speak for a long time.
It was only then that Lu Mo Ning finally believed what Black Snake had said earlier, they were probably... brothers who were close friends.
After the two of them calmed down, Bai Jinrong said in a hoarse voice, "Are...is he alright?"
Lu Mo Ning hummed: "It should be pretty good, just greedy."
Bai Jinrong was taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help but chuckled: "Yes, he is indeed very greedy. Where is he... Can I not see him?"
Lu Mo Ning looked down at the black snake, and sighed softly in his heart: Even if they want to see it, the problem is that they have to believe it. Since they can't hear the black snake's voice, it seems that only they can hear it.
"He is temporarily...unable to see people."
Bai Jinrong didn't force it either: "Then I don't know why Mr. Lu came here...for?"
Lu Mo Ning cut straight to the point and said directly: "I'm here to get the information about Ding Guogong Xue Shiren that he asked you to investigate four years ago."
Bai Jinrong was startled: "You are..."
Lu Moning briefly explained: "I am now investigating the case of the death of Xue Shizi in the Duke's mansion together with Mr. Xin, Minister of the Criminal Ministry, and discovered the hidden case in the case. I want to use this to punish Duke Ding." Lu Moning knew very well that unless the handle was fatal, it would be difficult to convict Duke Ding at one time, but let him be punished temporarily and have no time to deal with Lord Xin enough.
Bai Jinrong sat up straight: "Are you really... dare to make a move? You are the court official appointed by Zhao Yunji. What if he defends Duke Ding? If you are an official in the court, isn't it Zhao Yunji who is loyal?"
Lu Mo Ning took a deep look at Bai Jinrong, and said: "I am loyal to righteousness, not to a single person." What's more, he knew very well that 20 years later, the state of Zhao was on the verge of collapse, and Emperor Zhao... was not a wise king. He is also not qualified for that position, but he is the emperor, all he can do is to assist as much as possible, but before that, if it is between righteousness and the king, the first thing he cares about is righteousness.
Bai Jinrong and Gao Yi looked at each other, and the eyes were full of light: "In today's court, there are very few people who can see it so clearly."
Lu Mo Ning: "Then, are you willing to hand over this handle to me?"
"Naturally." Without hesitation, Bai Jinrong kicked the man beside him with a glance: "Go get it."
Lu Moning's eyes fell on Bai Jinrong's fair and delicate ankles, and he turned his eyes away.
Gao Yi squeezed Yubai's instep with his big palm, and was kicked away by Bai Jinrong. Then he laughed silently, walked into the dark room again, and when he came out, he handed a brocade box to Lu Mo rather.
Bai Jinrong said: "Here is the evidence about Duke Ding's acceptance of bribes over the years and his private contacts with several princes. You can see if it is useful."
Although Yuebailou has a good way of collecting information from all over the place, it can't touch the power struggle of the imperial court. This is why he has held these evidences for four years but can't use them. Otherwise, he would have put Ding Guogong, an ungrateful man Stuff got killed.
Lu Mo Ning quickly flipped through it, and after reading it, he was very surprised. Not only are there a few years, but also Ding Guogong's correspondence with other princes or criminal officials four years ago: "Ding Guogong unexpectedly Is it from Emperor Tianji? But back then...why did you still have contact with King Xiang?"
Four years ago, Emperor Tianji's sudden death was caused by King Xiang. Later, the current emperor ascended the throne and executed King Xiang Lingchi. None of the family members of Prince Xiang's mansion were left behind, and many of them were cut down. Everyone only said that the current emperor took revenge for his brother. This method is too cruel. After all, none of the hundreds of people are left behind, but it is justifiable. Now no one has much to say.
If this Duke Ding was a member of Emperor Tianji, why did he still have contact with King Xiang who assassinated Emperor Tianji?Isn't this a contradiction?
After all, it is rumored that Emperor Tianji and the current Holy One are brothers and have a very good relationship. Back then, Emperor Tianji died suddenly, and the current Holy One almost followed him. Later, because the country could not be left without a master for a day, the former minister of Tianji Emperor asked for the current Holy One to take the throne .
Duke Dingguo is a member of the Heavenly Halberd Emperor, and now he is loyally assisting the current Holy Majesty, but why... the Dingguo Guild is involved with King Xiang back then?
Bai Jinrong looked at a corner, stared blankly, and mocked: "He belongs to him? Only everyone believes it, even him... No, how could it be, otherwise, that old thief Xue Shiren, How... how..."
"Ah Jin, you're tired!" Gao Yi stopped Bai Jinrong from continuing, and looked at Lu Moning: "All the information we got about Ding Guogong is here, it's getting late, this is not where Mr. Lu should Where you came from, go back as soon as possible.”
Although Lu Mo Ning was hesitant, since the other party didn't want to speak, he was not the one to make things difficult for others: "Farewell."
"Wait." Bai Jinrong suddenly called out to Lu Moning in a hoarse voice: "I have some jars of good Huadiao wine here, can you bring them to him?"
Lu Moning met Bai Jinrong's pleading gaze and hummed lightly.
Lu Mo Ning swaggered out of Yuebai Building with a few jars of Huadiao wine, the benefactor was dumbfounded: What is the origin of this young man?Boss Bai is willing to give away the precious wine that he has treasured for so long. How many jars are there for one gift?
Lu Mo Ning returned to the inn, put a few jars of wine on the table, took off the wooden beads and put them aside, opened a jar of clay, and immediately smelled the aroma of the wine: "Drink."
But the wooden bead didn't move, Lu Mo Ning was suspicious: "Why? I don't like it, but Boss Bai said this is your favorite." This is several times better than the previous daughter's red. Dislike?
It took Muzhu a long time to turn back into a black snake, and he raised his pointed head and looked at Lu Moning: If one day, you know that the king you are loyal to is not what you see on the surface, what will you do?
Lu Mo Ning looked at him suspiciously: "I just said this to Boss Bai, I am not loyal to the emperor, but to the world and the righteousness of the world. If the current emperor is not a wise emperor, then those who are capable will live." Above all, the premise is that it is good for the common people in the world.” If he hadn’t experienced the previous life, and hadn’t seen the turbulent situation in Zhao State 20 years later, he might really feel as simple as this age, the king is the king, A minister is a minister, and if the king wants his minister to die, the minister has to die.
But later, I got used to those scenes of ups and downs. If a country leader can't make a country strong but declines day by day, then what is he loyal to?What did the people expect?
Especially after seeing so much promiscuity and darkness in the palace, he spent his whole life thinking about it, and finally understood the truth that Zhao Guo, even if he was exhausted to death alone, would not be able to change anything.
Black Snake looked at him silently for a long time before saying in a hoarse voice: Remember what you said today.
After finishing speaking, he jumped into the wine jar with a plop.
Lu Mo Ning fell into a deep sleep late at night, but felt as if a ghost was being crushed on his body, and he couldn't break free. He opened his eyes suddenly, and saw a shadow staring at him in the dark night. The smell of wine in the room Diffuse, but when he waved his hand, it was just a phantom in front of him.
Lu Mo Ning frowned: "Why are you crazy?"
The man's drunken and hoarse voice resounded in the dark night: Do you think you brought back these jugs of wine to save money on drinks?
Lu Mo Ning: "...What's wrong, do you like to drink or not? If you don't drink, I'll lose everything tomorrow." In the middle of the night, this drunken snake disturbs people's dreams and even questioned him, doesn't he think he's justified?
It's just that as soon as he said this, the corner of the mouth of the man who was holding him raised, which was quite meaningful.
Bai Jinrong stared at him quietly, then stretched out his hand, and pinched the other's waist vigorously. The man didn't even frown, and put him firmly on the soft couch beside him, and then returned to stand by his side, but When looking at Lu Mo Ning, there was a warning in his eyes.
