Chapter 1135 Not in Line with Her Style
Without waiting for Leng Rushuang to refuse, he raised his hand and struck the back of her neck as fast as lightning.
Leng Rushuang looked at him in shock, then closed her eyes and passed out.
Zhao Yuanhe caught her, carried her out of the inn with a smile, got into an inconspicuous carriage, and drove away.
Although Zhao Shu would go to a Huayun restaurant to eat, he would not go there often.
Only once or twice a month.
It was already half a month later when he found out that Leng Rushuang was gone.
In the past half month, he had been busy with things in the arsenal. He was so busy that he didn't bother to ask about Yao Shuibi. He only asked his subordinates to send the inquiring information to the inn.
Unexpectedly, Leng Rushuang went out half a month ago.
Only the young boy Xiao Chang and the old butler Uncle Lu were guarding the inn.
"Where has she gone?" Zhao Shu asked Xiao Chang.
Xiao Chang said: "She only left a note saying that she was tired of staying in Kyoto and it was too hot. She wanted to go out for a walk and come back in a few months."
With Leng Rushuang's temperament, it's possible.
Xiaochang brought the note.
The words on the note indeed looked as cold as frost.
But Zhao Shu didn't believe it.
Before, she had to help find out about Yao Shuibi, so she couldn't just leave.
What's more, these years, she always wrote to him to tell him where she went and what she was doing.
It was very inconsistent with her style to leave without even saying hello.
Zhao Shu thought for a while, called his entourage, and asked him to find the Yamen and Liumenmen to find out the whereabouts of Leng Rushuang.
Zhao Shu is not too worried about her safety.
Leng Rushuang has a lot of unique skills. She traveled all over the country when she was young. She has also experienced it. She is not a girl who knows nothing.
He just felt that there must be some reason for Leng Rushuang's sudden departure from Beijing.
Could it be related to things in the palace?
Zhao Shu happened to have something to discuss with the emperor, so he went to the palace.
He first talked to Zhao Yuanjing about several important matters at hand. The uncle and nephew discussed for a long time and decided on several solutions.
After the discussion, we started talking about Northern Qi.
Because Dazhou had captured a spy from Northern Qi, officials from the Ministry of Rites and Dali Temple negotiated with Northern Qi many times, asking them to give an explanation.
The emperor of Northern Qi responded quickly and sincerely, saying that the spy was not sent by him. It must be someone with ulterior motives deliberately trying to sow friendly relations between the two countries.
Regarding this spy, he asked the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty to severely punish him, and he must interrogate who sent him.
The Northern Qi Emperor's attitude confirmed Zhao Yuanjing's guess.
Yao Shuibi was indeed not sent by the emperor of Northern Qi.
But it must have been sent by other forces in Northern Qi. As for who it was, there were also interlocking forces in Northern Qi, and Zhao Yuanjing had no idea of getting involved for the time being.
What he was thinking about now was how to get rid of the acacia poison in himself.
After interrogating him for so long, it was almost certain that Yao Shuibi was indeed unable to produce an antidote.
Zhao Shu had never asked about this matter, but now he asked: "Your Majesty, regarding the Northern Qi spy, can I have a meeting with you?"
"Of course it's okay to see it. However, the young emperor is also interested in the spies of the Northern Qi Dynasty? Xiao Chenzi interrogated him for half a month, but he couldn't find out anything." Zhao Yuanjing shook his head, "It seems that it is indeed as the queen said, and I can't find out anything. what."
Zhao Shu said: "I was entrusted by someone to meet her."
"who?"
"Leng Rushuang, the proprietress of a Huayun restaurant." Zhao Shu said, "She said that Yao Shuibi is her junior sister. Although Yao Shuibi is from Northern Qi, their master asked her to take care of his junior sister before he died."
