Suddenly, Mo Cairen pointed to an unremarkable painting and ordered the guards to open it, "Where did it come from? Open it up and have a look."

"Yes." The guard holding the painting responded, "The slave found it in the secret compartment under Wang Sheng's bed."

When the scroll was unfolded, Mo Cairen's expression changed drastically, and he quickly brought the painting in front of Li Zhenrui, "Your Majesty, please look at this painting."

The picture scroll was slowly opened in front of Li Zhenrui.

In the painting is a man, wearing a moon-white bamboo dress, with a gold-painted folding fan in his hand, half-turned, although there is only an outline, he is looking forward to the wind.

I glanced at the person in the painting curiously, and was quite surprised.

The painting is not detailed, and the face is still a little blurred, but it vividly captures my charm on the paper.

A bad premonition faintly rose in my heart, but I didn't speak.

Mo Cairen pointed at this painting, glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know who this painting is, and how could it be owned by an eunuch guard?"

"This matter is indeed quite strange." Li Zhenrui said thoughtfully.

Fang Shengze circled around the scroll, smiling meaningfully, "Mr. Nanshan's appearance is truly peerless!"

I smiled calmly, "Is it just based on this figure?"

"Who is it, isn't it clear at a glance?" Mo Cairen smiled smugly.

The expressions of the others were also a little subtle, as if they were watching the show.

In fact, I also have doubts in my heart.

Why does Wang Sheng have my paintings?Wang Sheng holds my painting every day and night, what will he do with it?But no matter what channel he used to get this painting, it is obvious that he, a lewd person, has unreasonable desires for me.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or someone set up a game in the middle of the game, but what is certain is that the current situation is not good.

I said casually, "Looking at the back, if you say it looks like Mr. Yagui, but this face is obviously more like Wei Ming."

Shangguan Wenya's eyes flashed, as if he wanted to say something.

Cui Minglang smiled, "Look carefully, this face is really blurry, I really can't tell who it is."

I smiled gratefully at him, thanking him for saving me.

Li Zhenrui's expression was noncommittal, his fingers slowly brushed the scroll, and he asked me in a light tone, "Wang Sheng, do you know him?"

I didn't expect him to ask me this directly, and my heart shrank nervously.

His piercing eyes stared straight at me, leaving me nowhere to hide.

Wang Sheng, do you know him?

At that moment, I almost told him everything.

However, my body was stiff and unable to move, facing all the unknown eyes looking at me, I shook my head feebly.

"My minister doesn't know me."

I saw a moment of disappointment in Li Zhenrui's eyes, I don't know if it was my eyes.

"Your Majesty, although you can't tell which man is in the painting, everyone knows Wang Sheng's desire to covet him, so it's not difficult to find out." Mo Cairen reminded.

Shangguan Wenya also said, "I also really want to know who is the person in the painting."

"No need, I'm not interested." Li Zhenrui put away the painting and casually threw it on the ground, "Leave today's matter to Mr. Nanshan. As for this painting, destroy it immediately, I don't want to see it again."

He took one last look at me and strode away.

I breathed a sigh of relief, dealt with a group of people related to Wang Sheng, and mentioned Wei Ming to fill Wang Sheng's vacancy, and then dismissed everyone.

When I returned to Donghua Pavilion, it was already getting dark. I had a simple meal and prepared to take a rest.

I don't know if Li Zhenrui will come tonight, I'm still a little apprehensive, and I don't know how to face him.

"Your Majesty, Wei Ming is asking for an audience outside the door, do you want to call him in?"

I shook my head, "Let him go back, tell him to work hard in the future, and he will be good."

"Okay." Dieyi went out after hearing the words, and when he came back, he still had a pair of plasters in his hand, "He said it was sent by the emperor to the king. If the king needs it, you can..."

"Yeah." I leaned on the bed, my eyes fell on the plaster, and I yawned slightly, "I want to thank Brother Mu this time, and I will go to the Imperial Hospital tomorrow to have a look."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dieyi put down the curtains for me, and praised softly, "Mr. Mu's medical skills are really superb. The plaster was used on Wei Ming's body, and the effect was very good."

After finishing speaking, he sighed again, "It's a pity that the noble concubine Wang Guifei was not punished much for helping the evildoers."

"Wang Guifei is the concubine who has followed the emperor the longest, and she has sacrificed a lot for the emperor... It can be seen that the emperor is a person who misses old love." I sighed.

"Having said that, it's just a pity that we have had several months of preparation."

"What's the pity?" I said with a smile, "Wang Sheng deserved to be executed for his crime, and the rest of the people were also punished. Isn't everyone happy?"

Dieyi thought for a while when she heard the words, nodded in agreement, and only looked at me suspiciously, "I just don't understand, the king is kind but never likes to meddle in other people's affairs, why do you want to stand up for Wei Ming, and punish a Why do the guards have to spend so much effort?"

"If he is punished openly, what will happen to Wang Guifei?" I asked casually.

Dieyi suddenly realized, "If this is the case, Wang Guifei will definitely try her best to stop him, but she will not be able to punish him."

I nodded, and said in a leisurely manner, "Now, taking advantage of the opportunity of the poetry meeting, there is Shangguan Wenya in charge, so I can just watch from the sidelines."

Dieyi gave a thumbs up in admiration.

"Wang Sheng is a bold and reckless man who wantonly rapes the palace people. This trend cannot last long." I said lightly, "Besides, it can make Wang Guifei lose face in front of the emperor, so why not do it?"

"It turns out that the king is thoughtful. After this incident, although the imperial concubine is the head of the four concubines, her status is not as good as before. If that Mo Cairen doesn't care about her mouth, no one will be able to save her. "

Dieyi only knows that I help Wei Ming, but doesn't know why I help him, so she doesn't understand, but how should I tell her the truth?

Tell her that I was almost destroyed by Wang Sheng?

Forget it, Wang Sheng and Zheng Si are dead, this secret is known to no one except Xiao Shunzi, so why should I announce it again.

However, Mo Yingzhu mentioned by Dieyi still made me frown.

"Mo Yingzhu is just a small character..." I rubbed my forehead lightly, "I'm just curious about who is behind her."

From Concubine Shu to Concubine Gui, why does a little concubine oppose me many times?

Is it really just because I helped Su Jinyue?

"Dieyi, ask Ruier to investigate Mo Yingzhu, I want to know the details of this person."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dieyi responded, hesitated for a moment, and seemed to have something to say.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Your Majesty, that painting..."

"You feel like me too?" I couldn't help but ask back.

Dieyi shook her head, "It's just the face, it's actually more like Wei Ming. But the behavior of the person in the painting is a bit like you."

"So what do you think?" I asked with a smile.

Dieyi lowered her head and thought about it, and said seriously, "Your Majesty is so handsome, it's not surprising that Wang Sheng never forgets it when he sees it. It's just that he kept this painting privately, so he summoned gossip for Your Majesty without any reason. It's really hateful."

I pouted lightly, what Wang Sheng did was a hundred times more hateful than this.

However, he is a rough man, even if he thinks about me day and night, he will not have the leisure and elegance to paint.

Who is the painter?Why did you give the painting to Wang Sheng?

But if you want to blame me, you should draw more detailed?Is it just so blurred to cover up the handwriting?

However, if you recall carefully, it is indeed more like Wei Ming...

On the second day, I summoned Wei Ming to inquire.

"Your Majesty, Wang Sheng cherishes this painting far more than this slave." Wei Ming replied earnestly, pursing his lips, "It's just that this slave also saw Wang Sheng's painting a few days ago, which was unheard of before."

"Do you know how Wang Sheng got this painting?" I asked.

"This painting..." Wei Ming paused, "This painting was originally seen in my room, but Wang Sheng saw it and snatched it away."

"In your room?" I was slightly surprised, "Do you know who sent it?"

Wei Ming shook his head, "The servant is also very puzzled. It's just that the servant looks at the painting very well, so he didn't throw it away."

I was silent and thought about Wei Ming's words.

Who made this painting?And why did you give it to Wei Ming?

But what is certain is that the sender of the painting is not aware of the entanglement between Wang Sheng and me, and this painting is more like a test object.

So what does he want to test?Why do you draw both Wei Ming and me...

Who knew that I knew Wei Ming?

I carefully recalled all the people I might have known from my acquaintance with Wei Ming, except Die Yi, only Die Wu.

"Your Majesty, a guard came to look for you last night."

"I asked him what was the matter, but he refused to say."

"It's so strange, Your Majesty lives in seclusion, yet a guard came to look for you specially, and it was still at night...but you are quite handsome."

"That guard god is mysterious, who knows what's going on, so I don't think it's in a hurry."

I don't want to think about it this way, but Die Wu's behavior is indeed suspicious, and her words reveal a temptation to Wei Ming.

I took a deep breath, "Did someone come to spy on you or check you during this time?"

Wei Ming tilted his head and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "The servant doesn't know either."

"Okay, I understand." I helped him up who was kneeling on the ground, "The matter of Wang Sheng is over, and he will never harass you again from now on, you can rest assured."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Ming was so moved that he almost shed tears, and choked up, "Without Your Majesty, this slave would still be in dire straits, or would have already gone to hell. Your Majesty's great kindness, this slave will never forget, everything from now on will be unforgettable." Let your majesty send you, but the majesty will follow you when you mount the horse."

"Okay." I patted his hand, "From today on, do things well, and I will give you a chance to display your skills."

"Thank you sir." Wei Ming knelt down again, and kowtowed heavily to me a few times.

When I came out, I turned my head and looked at Dieyi, my eyes were a little cold.

"Dieyi, I really misjudged you."

Dieyi raised her head in a panic, "Your Majesty, it wasn't done by your servants. Your servants can learn from the sun and the moon about your Majesty's heart, and they will never join other people to harm your Majesty."

"It's not you, who could it be?" I looked directly at her, "Who knows that I met Wei Ming?"

Dieyi lowered her head and muttered for a long time before hesitatingly said, "Maybe it's Die Wu. I heard from Luo Yu a few days ago that Die Wu stopped Wei Ming...but Die Wu has known Numai for many years. I don't believe that she will do this, please give the servant a chance, the servant will definitely find out the truth."

"Okay." I waved my hand and asked Dieyi to check.

Although I have the answer in my heart, I also need a reason for disappointment.

It only took a few days to find out the results, but I wish I had never been found out.

Die Wu, that once lively and agile woman.

She knelt in the hall calmly, and she didn't panic too much when she saw me, as if she knew it long ago.

I took a sip of tea and asked calmly, "Why did you betray?"

"What do you think, Your Majesty?" Die Wu sneered, "With Your Majesty, when will there be a way out?"

"Is this gentleman treating you badly?" I asked.

"Okay? The slaves don't know." Die Wu said to herself, "As long as Dieyi is here, Your Majesty will never look me in the face."

"Shangguan Wenya will look at you squarely?" I sneered, "He used your hand to find out about me. If I am in trouble, do you really think you can take care of yourself?"

Die Wu took a deep breath and clenched her fists, "Mr. Shangguan is not that kind of person. Besides, he is just giving me advice. Everything is done by slaves and has nothing to do with Mr. Shangguan."

"Young Master Shangguan, you are very kind." I stood up and didn't want to say any more, "Go out of the palace today, I don't want to see you again."

"Your Majesty..." Die Wu's eyes flickered with panic, she tried her best to grab my sleeve, but was stopped.

"Your Majesty, please give this slave one more chance..."

I waved my hand, Die Wu had already been dragged out of the hall by the guards, only her "Your Majesty" was left over and over again, apart from unwillingness, there was still a bit of loneliness.

Maybe I'm being biased.

Mingming Dieyi and Diewu are by my side together, but I only see the goodness of Dieyi in my eyes and ignore Diewu.

However, the opportunity is like this, once it is gone, it will never come again.

Let me accept her again?impossible.

Shangguan Wenya put me together, I will remember.

I also have a rough idea of ​​this matter.

Shangguan Wenya knew in advance that I knew Wei Ming and might make decisions for Wei Ming, but she was curious that I had clearly intervened but refused to do it, and then found out the entanglement between Wei Ming and Wang Sheng.

Maybe I also learned other secrets, so I made this painting to test the relationship between me, Wei Ming and Wang Sheng.

Even if it doesn't matter, having this painting can bring me a lot of trouble.

This is also why Shangguan Wenya's gentle temperament would argue with Wang Guifei for so long at the poetry meeting, and finally attracted Li Zhenrui.

Although it is also what I like to see, but thinking that someone has seen through my situation, I can't help but feel a little bit discouraged.

Shangguan Wenya looks harmless to humans and animals, gentle and elegant, well-connected and thoughtful, but for some reason, the first time I saw him, I couldn't help being hostile. Maybe it's because the way he looks at Li Zhenrui is very different from other people. different.

I still have to act cautiously in the future, and I can't be used by him again, I secretly warned myself.

Although I am lonely and proud, I don't want to associate with others, but I am not weak to be bullied. If Shangguan Wenya secretly provokes me again, I will not be soft.

Thinking of what Li Zhenrui said to me in Huaqing Pool that day, my frown gradually eased.

His love for Shangguan Wenya may be just "love", but I got more than that.
