Chapter 122 The wind blows and the candle shakes, and the cold wind is rustling
The outside of the hall was illuminated by lantern torches, the wind blew the torches, and the firelight swayed, reflecting the solemn soldiers, making them all look as cold as if they had no breath.
The public hall was extremely quiet, and the people present stared at the young woman who had just walked in front of Du Yilin. No one knew who she was, let alone why Du Yilin called her out at such a moment.
Leng Xuanrong felt unprecedented pressure. Standing in the court like this is no longer a great thing for a woman like her. What's more, sitting opposite Leng Xuanrong is still a cold-faced prince.
After Leng Xuanrong stood there, he suddenly thought that he should kneel down to worship Du Yilin at this time, instead of simply salute him. She hesitated for a moment and was about to kneel down, but she heard Du Yilin say, "Name it."
Leng Xuanrong looked up at Du Yilin and saw his expressionless face. He was strong and calm. He opened his mouth and whispered, "The name of the people's woman is Leng Xuanrong."
"Tell me what your father's name is." Du Yilin's voice spoke without any waves. I don't know whether it was because he was fearless at this time or because he was very determined.
Hearing Du Yilin's question, Leng Xuanrong's mind buzzed. Her body shook slightly and she screamed bad in her heart.
Leng Xuanrong thought that Du Yilin is now surrounded by the protection of armored soldiers. Does he want to make a life and death with He Lijing in this Yan County? At this time, he revealed the identity of his father and daughter. Does Du Yilin want to make He Lijing's ambitions public here?
Killing a He Lijing is small, but in case he annoys the person above his head, what is Du Yilin going to do?
Leng Xuanrong frowned and looked at Du Yilin, as if he was confirming to Du Yilin whether he really wanted to say his father's name.
Du Yilin saw Leng Xuanrong's eyes and was even more disgusted with this woman.
Be smart.
Du Yilin said coldly, "What's wrong? Just say whatever you ask!"
There was nothing he could do, so Leng Xuanrong had to grit her teeth and answer, "My father... My father's name is Chengqi... Leng Chengqi..."
The three words were not loud when they came out of Leng Xuanrong's mouth, but they fell into He Lijing's ears in the distance, as if there were three thunders.
Cold Chengqi.
It's really cold and sad!
This little girl turned out to be Leng Chengqi's daughter!
He Lijing remembered the scene when he saw the little girl in the dyeing dust study, and vaguely remembered the way the little girl looked at her at that time... Damn it! What a careless!
He Lijing wanted to raise his hand and slap himself a few times.
He thought that Leng Chengqi could not make any waves. He thought that there was no problem with the news Li Duen sent him at the beginning. Leng Chengqi was not only addicted to casinos, but also had been dead for a long time. And he has only a teenage daughter around him. What else can such a father and daughter do?
I didn't think about it!
I didn't expect it anyway!
He Lijing stared at Leng Xuanrong with his eyebrows. His mind suddenly became confused. He didn't know what Du Yilin was planning to do. He didn't know if Du Yilin knew anything from Leng Chengqi. Moreover, what he didn't know was that if something happened to him now, whether the rescuers outside the city could catch up in time. Arrive! Can I save my life or not?
He Lijing became nervous. The flesh on his face is trembling slightly. Since he became an official, he seems to have never been as nervous as he is today.
He Lijing's change could not escape Du Yilin's eyes. He had no joy in his heart, but thought of something else.
At this time, Du Yilin turned his head and said to Gu Zhiyi sitting next to him, "General Gu, could you please let your soldiers go and bring that Leng Chengqi?"
Gu Zhiyi nodded slightly, reached out and pulled down a bright silver sign the size of a palm from his waist, and said to Du Yilin, "The prince is looking for someone to lead the way. With this Kirin card, you can let my people follow."
Du Yilin took over the Kirin card with satisfaction and looked carefully through the candlelight. He saw that the Kirin card was made of pure silver, and the tedious and complicated totem on it seemed to be from the hands of the palace craftsman. Du Yilin, such a waist card, is not strange, but all the troops directly dispatched by the emperor basically use similar things.
He called Zeng Yanliang, asked him to listen, whispered a few words, and then handed the waist card to his hand.
"Go ahead." Du Yilin said coldly to Zeng Yanliang.
Zeng Yanliang still frowned. He looked at the Kirin card in his hand and seemed to be a little hesitant. But looking up at Du Yilin, Zeng Yanliang seemed to have made up his mind, punched him and turned around and walked out. He walked to Leng Xuanrong and said to Leng Xuanrong in a low voice, "Xuanrong, don't be afraid. I'll come as soon as I go."
After saying that, Zeng Yanliang separated the crowd out of court.
Many people in the court did not understand why Du Yilin let Zeng Yanliang, a person who has a lot to do with the case, go out to find some cold relatives when the investigator Yin was robbed. In fact, most people standing here don't know who Leng Chengqi is.
Leng Xuanrong looked back and looked at Zeng Yanliang's figure disappearing in the crowd. She felt that her hands were gradually getting cold.
It may be a good thing that Brother Yan Liang is not here.
She slowly turned around and took a breath.
This time, not only Gu Zhiyi, but also Du Yilin noticed the change in Leng Xuanrong's breath.
If only some generals like Gu Zhiyi could feel the murderous spirit on Leng Xuanrong just now, the breath she ex exuded is the coldness that everyone can feel.
Like a desperate death row prisoner, Leng Xuanrong's eyes did not have a trace of brilliance, and her face seemed to have torn off a mask, becoming lifeless.
Seeing such Leng Xuanrong, Du Yilin seemed to notice something. He said coldly to Leng Xuanrong, "Reng Xuanrong, just now Zeng Yanliang said that you saved him and how did you save him? Let's talk about it in detail."
Maybe Leng Xuanrong herself did not notice the changes in her body. Her voice was still very soft when she spoke, but it was this soft voice that came from her mouth now, which made the whole room feel hairy.
"That day, when the people's daughter went to Fengquanling and passed by the woods, she happened to see the seriously injured brother Yan Liang staggering back..."
For the explanation of this matter, Leng Xuanrong has thought about it many times in her heart, so she said it in detail and clearly. From her rescue of Zeng Yanliang to her concealment of Zeng Yanliang, until they "accidentally" met the prince later, Leng Xuanrong said it.
When she said that Du Yilin was robbed in Fengquanling that night, Du Yilin waved her hand to stop her.
Liang Qiurong, who was supported, heard that Wang's team was robbed, and his body sank again. He thought to himself that this was really a house leak and rained overnight. Not only did the river work matter not settle? Who would have thought that the prince came to Kunyan County and suffered a robbery?
He turned his head and took a look at He Lijing standing not far away, and saw that He Lijing's face also turned pale.
Du Yilin seemed to recall what happened at the beginning and said slowly, "That day, the group of robbers were extremely fierce, and they knew at a glance that they were well-trained people. Maybe that group of people are the ones who robbed the official bank. So the king sent someone to investigate it carefully. As a result, it was found that the other party was not the robber who robbed the official bank. However, it was also because of this that I was sure that Zeng Yanliang was not the one who colluded with the robbers, so I asked him to go to the city with me to investigate the robbery of Guanyin with my guards. Unfortunately, nothing was found until the county government received the news from the two mountain people.
After saying this, Du Yilin breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had relieved something. He called the guards who came with him and ordered him to take the county government office to Fengquanling to verify the scene of the large pot and corpses with melted silver. Then Du Yilin seemed to suddenly think of something and looked at He Lijing.
He Lijing narrowed his eyes slightly and listened to Du Yilin say, "Lord He, this matter is still a matter in your Wuming County. According to my view, it's better to send some people to go with you to count the evidence on the scene, so as to avoid any mistakes in the future. How about it?"
He Lijing didn't have time to think much, so he had to nod his head, "Listen to the prince."
Du Yilin nodded with satisfaction, and then signaled that his guards could go out to do this matter.
I personally understood and received the order.
Leng Xuanrong, who has been standing in the middle of the court, has been looking down at her shoes.
She doesn't know where to look, what to do, or even what she is in now.
After Du Yilin ordered someone to go down, Leng Xuanrong looked up at him, as if asking him what else he wanted to do.
Du Yilin clearly saw Leng Xuanrong looking at him, but pretended not to see anything, letting him and Gu Zhiyi serve tea, and then just drank tea and said nothing.
Although Gu Zhiyi didn't understand what Du Yilin wanted to do, he also saw the doorway between these people in this room.
He found that He Lijing, the county magistrate standing in the distance, was getting worse and worse. His eyes turned around from time to time, and the sweat on his forehead kept sweat. He knew at a glance that he was anxious to think of something. On the other side, the county magistrate looked like he was determined, panicking and gasping heavily.
Only the little girl standing in front of him made Gu Zhiyi figure it out.
The more you look at it, the more interested Gu Zhiyi is in Leng Xuanrong. He turned his head and asked Du Yilin, "Your Majesty, can I ask this woman a few words?"
Du Yilin seemed to be a little surprised, but he didn't stop it. "General Gu, just ask if you have something to say."
Gu Zhiyi waved his hand to Leng Xuanrong and motioned her to come to him.
Leng Xuanrong hesitated and walked to Gu Zhiyi, gave a deep salute, and whispered, "The people's daughter Leng Xuanrong, I have seen... General Gu..."
She heard Du Yilin call the man in front of her who couldn't see his face clearly.
