Chapter 135 Rumors
Chapter 135 Rumors
"Can you please stop using your imagination? He knows Li Jinze, and we suspect he is Li Jinze's real identity. Anyway, it's very strange, and we haven't figured it out yet."
Mo Sheng: "He knows?! You two are truly in love!"
Ningxu felt that there was no need to brag about her love history, so she walked over to sit next to Li Ze, and Li Ze poured her some tea to soothe her throat.
Ningxu: "You can rely on your second sister's memory to know about Yonghe Continent. Now let's talk about you. Gastric perforation? This disease can be treated. How could you die from it?"
Modern medical technology is so advanced.
Mo Sheng was too embarrassed to say, "I don't know either. I went home after drinking at the bar and died."
Ningxu: "Sudden death? It's unclear why he died."
Mo Sheng: "Not really... My stomach hasn't been feeling well for a while, but I didn't take it seriously."
Ning Xu was furious when she heard Mo Sheng was still drinking, "You deserve it! I told you not to drink! You still drink even though you have a stomachache!"
Mo Sheng: "Then I... Oh, by the way, I also ran into Dong Lao Er in the bar."
Hearing this, Ningxu's eyes showed obvious disdain, and Li Ze noticed it. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ningxu: "No, I feel sick when I hear this name."
Li Ze: "What's wrong with this name?"
The two people in the room obviously showed disgust, and Li Ze became curious.
Mo Sheng explained, "This person! She is a bitch who does all kinds of evil and only targets Ningxu! She is the one who killed Li Jinze!"
In the next few seconds, Mo Sheng carefully recounted to Li Ze the crimes that Dong Laoer had committed against Ning Xu.
Li Ze was so angry that he took Ningxu's hand and said, "Sister Sheng'er, if you know that she bullied you like this, you will not let her go!" Li Ze only knew that Ningxu had lost her lover before, but he did not expect that she would be bullied like this.
Ningxu: "No way?"
In Ningxu's memory, her second sister was a gentle and intellectual older sister.
Li Ze: "She holds a grudge, but she doesn't show it obviously. She is very protective of her children."
Ningxu was very surprised, "Really? I kind of want to see how my second sister fights the evil girl."
Li Ze: "It's a pity that we can't see it..."
Li Ze didn't let Ningxu and Mo Sheng chat for too long. Both of them were like patients. He took Ningxu back to Yonghe Palace to rest. After soothing Ningxu to sleep, he went to the Queen Mother. There was a big commotion in the palace today. The Queen Mother was able to calm down, but as a son, he had to go and pay his respects.
He informed the Queen Mother of today's events and concealed Mo Sheng's matter.
The Queen Mother knew Li Ze's ability and said she was not worried at all. On the contrary, she was very excited when she knew Ningxu was pregnant and kept thinking about taking care of her.
Afterwards, Li Ze rushed back to the Imperial Study to deal with the problems left over from Prime Minister Bai's rebellion. He was full of motivation and wanted to finish the work as soon as possible so that he could return to the palace to hug his wife.
The task of capturing Prime Minister Bai fell on Mo Yong's shoulders. After all, he was alone, so now he could act openly.
After a few days of peace in the palace, things started to get uneasy outside the palace.
Recently, someone in the capital spread the news that the goddess failed to bring down the holy water, saying that the current goddess is a fake and has destroyed the sacred artifact, and a catastrophe is about to happen.
Although some people did not believe it, some people still believed it because the propaganda of the dark forces was so strong.
People were discussing it in restaurants, teahouses, and even on the streets.
"Have you heard? The holy water fell and failed, and the sacred artifact was destroyed. It is said that the news was suppressed by the palace."
In front of the fish stall, a customer asked the owner about gossip. The owner, who was chopping fish, paused and said, "Who said that?" He looked a little impatient.
"It's all over the street today! I don't know who spread it first."
"This is nonsense! Hasn't the holy water already flowed? Who is spreading rumors?!"
The customer was a little unconvinced, "You know that the imperial court didn't even announce it?"
The boss chopped the fish skillfully, "How could I, a fisherman on the river, not know this? Old Li, huh?" the boss asked Old Li, who was selling vegetables next door.
Old Li: "Look at how well my vegetables are growing. They are much fatter than last month! It's all thanks to the goddess' holy water. Whoever spreads rumors will have his mouth rotten!"
Boss: “Look.”
The boss put the chopped fish into the customer's basket. The customer paid the bill. "Really? The person who spread the rumor should be arrested. He is causing panic."
After saying that, the customer left towards a small alley, but he was blocked by a masked man as soon as he entered the alley.
The masked man approached, "What's going on?"
The customer let down his guard, "The news has spread, but not many people believe it. They say the holy water from Xuewu Mountain has flowed into the river."
The masked man was puzzled, "How is this possible? Everyone saw that the begging ceremony failed."
"I don't know about this. I have to report it to the Prime Minister immediately."
"Walk."
As they spoke, the two of them walked deeper into the alley and disappeared.
At the entrance of the alley, two young men appeared, one big and one small, they were the two boys from the Lin family.
Lin Mu: "Brother, are they the ones who spread the rumors in the city these days?"
Lin Yi's face was gloomy. They just wanted to stroll around the city to see if they could find anything that could help Sister Ningxu. They didn't expect to run into a big fish. But with their abilities, it was really difficult to deal with it.
Lin Yi: "You go to Prince Mo's Mansion to report to the eldest young master, I will follow them first."
As he spoke, Lin Yi walked into the alley.
Lin Mu anxiously called out "brother" in a low voice, but seeing that he couldn't stop him, he didn't dare to waste time and rushed to Prince Mo's mansion.
Lin Yi followed the two people all the way, not daring to get too close, but fortunately the young man was young and had good eyesight, so he did not lose them even from a distance.
The two men walked all the way out of the city and into the depths of the woods. Lin Yi saw a tent in the woods from afar. The two men greeted the guards outside the tent, and the two guards put down their bows.
But there were many leaves and branches in the woods, so when Lin approached, there would inevitably be footsteps. The two men could not notice him, but he was discovered by the guards.
"There's someone there!"
As soon as the voice came out, a small team ran out from behind the tent. The people at the door were on guard, and a head popped out of the tent. It was Bai Si.
Although Bai Si didn't see Lin Yi, he was like a frightened bird. "Three of you go and take care of him! The rest of you, cover our retreat!"
As soon as the order was given, everyone took action. The two men and the guards went to chase Lin Yi, and the team members covered their retreat.
Bai Si supported Prime Minister Bai. In just a few days, Prime Minister Bai looked much older. He was supported to escape, but he still complained, "A bunch of people who eat for free were followed here!"
Bai Si smiled apologetically, "Father, the skilled ones were surrounded and attacked during the operation, and the remaining few stayed behind to protect us, so we can only let two unprofessionals spread rumors."
Prime Minister Bai: "What rumors! It is a fact that Mo Ningxu failed in her begging ceremony!"
Bai Si: "Yes, yes."
Meanwhile, Lin Mu arrived at Prince Mo's mansion, and because Ning Xu had often taken him out to play, the guards knew him. After Lin Mu said that he had something important to report to Mo Yong, a guard led him to find Mo Yong.
He quickly recounted the whole story, and Mo Yong hurriedly took the Mo family army squad and followed Lin Mu out of the house.
