Chapter 244 Suspicion of Concubine Rong

Shen Ningning walked over, holding his arm with her two small hands, and patted the dust off his body.

"There is no way. In the whole palace, I only have my brother to rely on!"

"So when there is something, I can only think of asking you for help."

Mo Lingwei's frown relaxed when he heard it, and he sat beside her couch with some pleasure.

He snorted and laughed: "You are not stupid. This trick of making a feint to the east and attacking the west has really trapped Xie Yuanjiu in a dead end. He can't escape."

Shen Ningning did go to Concubine Li's palace just now.

However, of course, it was specially performed for Xie Yuanjiu to see.

The letter that Shen Ningning sent to Mo Lingwei was not to ask for the imperial physician at all, but to tell him that she wanted to make Xie Yuanjiu reveal his feet and ask him for help.

Originally, Shen Ningning was still thinking about what to do to make Xie Yuanjiu pay the price.

But unexpectedly, the best opportunity appeared so soon.

She deliberately pushed the door in when Ye Shangyi was talking, just to let Xie Yuanjiu think wildly.

Xie Yuanjiu is a calm person. If she is not extremely scared, she will not follow out rashly.

Therefore, Shen Ningning asked Mo Lingwei to wait in the palace of Concubine Li in advance.

When the little girl confirmed that Xie Yuanjiu followed her, she immediately went to the dark to meet Mo Lingwei.

Mo Lingwei held her and followed another palace road back to the Waterside Flower Wharf.

As expected, they had just settled down when Commander Lu came with his men.

Everything was as Shen Ningning expected.

The little girl poured him a cup of hot tea, sat beside him, and whispered softly: "If Xie Yuanjiu didn't have evil thoughts, she wouldn't follow me out late at night."

After the incident with Qi Xiuwei, Shen Ningning was particularly wary of Xie Yuanjiu.

She even guessed that if Xie Yuanjiu really caught her, with Xie Yuanjiu's cruel heart, he would definitely strike first.

Mo Lingwei drank the hot tea and rubbed Shen Ningning's earlobes twice.

He probably walked too fast just now, and the cold wind froze the little guy's ears red.

If Commander Lu or the eldest aunt came to check just now, they would have found the flaw.

Fortunately, they didn't.

Otherwise, Mo Lingwei would have killed a few people tonight to silence them.

His voice was smoked by the hot tea and made him lazy and arbitrary: "If you ask me, you think too much. Tell me who you don't like, and I will kill it for you."

Shen Ningning's curled eyelashes drooped slightly: "How can you kill them just like that? They are my godfather's family."

Mo Lingwei put down the teacup and narrowed his eyes.

After a short silence, he said: "Then you plan to teach her only this lesson?"

"From what I know, my father will most likely give Xie Yuanjiu a small punishment for the sake of Prime Minister Xie."

"She will most likely return to the Xie Mansion. With what happened today, I think she will definitely hate you."

At this point, Mo Lingwei's eyes burned with a strong murderous intent.

He tilted his head slightly, his eyes curved into a faint sneer: "Otherwise, let her die in prison tonight, once and for all, how about it?"

Shen Ningning still shook her little head decisively.

"Godfather's family, can't be touched, not to mention I know what kind of person she is, I will be on guard."

"If she dares to provoke me again, then I will... tell godfather!"

Mo Lingwei thought she could say something bold.

After hearing that, he raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Why are you sometimes brave and sometimes cowardly."

Shen Ningning pouted, not convinced by what he said, twisted her little body, and drank hot tea with her back to him.

Mo Lingwei pondered.

He felt that Shen Ningning was particularly tolerant of the people of the Xie family.

Today's plan was completely thought up by Shen Ningning. As long as she was a little more ruthless, Xie Yuanjiu's crime could be aggravated.

She could completely kill Xie Yuanjiu.

But the little girl still kept a trick, just let her be punished and lose the qualification to be a female official.

"Forget it," Mo Lingwei straightened her body and forced her to face him: "Do whatever you want."

"But you can't let me help you for nothing. In the future, you should keep your distance from the Ninth Prince. Can you do that?"

Shen Ningning held the teacup in her little hands, raised her eyes and blinked her long eyelashes.

"I didn't want to contact them, especially Concubine Rong."

"Concubine Rong?" Mo Lingwei didn't even have any special impression of this indifferent concubine: "What's wrong with her?"

Shen Ningning frowned her cute little eyebrows: "I suspect that Concubine Rong wants to harm me."

Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows: "Her? You have no grudges, what is her purpose in doing this?"

Shen Ningning shook her head: "I don't know, but it was her idea to let me go to Concubine Li."

Just when Concubine Rong deliberately reminded Shen Ningning that Concubine Li might know about the red mole, Shen Ningning felt something was wrong.

Because Concubine Rong was lying.

Shen Ningning did see the mother-daughter painting in Xie Suzhi's study.

It is true that there is a red mole on the hand of the baby in the painting.

However, Shen Ningning said to Mo Lingwei: "It was what Concubine Rong said to me that made me realize that she was lying and the painting was probably fake."

"Brother, think about it. Godfather cares so much about his wife and daughter. He has been looking for his daughter for many years. Sister Wanchun also said that Godfather would take out the painting almost every now and then to miss his wife and daughter."

"If the baby in the painting really has that red mole, Godfather would have noticed it long ago. When he was looking for his daughter, he would use this as evidence to look everywhere."

"But, have you heard about the Prime Minister's lost daughter having a red mole on her hand?"

After her reminder, Mo Lingwei recalled carefully and shook his head: "Indeed, there is no such thing."

"When Prime Minister Xie's daughter was just lost, he came to see the emperor and asked the emperor to issue an order to find his daughter. He also explained the characteristics and did not mention the red mole."

In other words, Prime Minister Xie did not know that his daughter had a red mole on her hand.

If the painting was real, he would not have noticed it.

Shen Ningning said firmly: "So, Concubine Rong not only lied, but also told me a fact."

"What fact?" Mo Lingwei looked at the little guy leisurely.

He thought that Shen Ningning was very cute when she was thinking seriously.

The round little body was delicate and beautiful, and she also had such a clear and smart little head.

He couldn't help but reach out and rub Shen Ningning's head.

The little guy, with his hair messed up by Mo Lingwei, said seriously: "The fact is, the painting is fake."

"Or, the red mole on the painting was added later!"

Mo Lingwei frowned coldly: "But you said you saw the painting in the prime minister's study. The study is the private place of the owner of the family. No one can enter easily without permission."

Shen Ningning nodded, and became more and more nervous: "I suspect there is a ghost in the Xie Mansion!"

The ghost must be Rong Fei's people.

The little guy was very sure: "It was Rong Fei's idea to let me go to Concubine Li. She might want me to be caught."

"But, then again, I have no grudges against her, why would she deal with me?"

Mo Lingwei's slender palm covered the little guy's head and stopped moving.

His eyes were dim and became cold to the bone.

"Unless you are worth being framed by her, she will either deal with you, or--"

Mo Lingwei paused briefly and said in a low voice: "She is going to deal with the Xie family."
