Luo Tong understood what the emperor meant, and so did Yi Nuo, so they were not surprised.
However, Ino was not grateful at all for the emperor's so-called kindness. After all, there were still doubts about the assassination of Queen Luo and Princess Luo Yue.
It has not yet been found out who ordered one of the Da Zhou assassins.
These days, Ino stayed in the capital. In addition to accompanying Luo Tong, his other purpose was to investigate the origins of the group of assassins. However, the progress of the investigation was somewhat slow due to the passage of time.
Seeing the strange look on Inuo's face when he heard about the "escort team", Luo Tong guessed what he was thinking.
"Brother, I will continue to investigate the matter of that group of assassins back then, so don't worry too much."
Ino sighed softly and could only nod helplessly: "That's all. Once I leave Dazhou, I will be somewhat powerless if I want to remotely control the investigation. If you have any news, please remember to tell your brother."
"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely tell you if there is news. Ah Chen is also helping us investigate this matter now. With him taking action, there is much more hope than me." Luo Tong said with a smile.
This is the truth. With Wu Zechen's strength, it is really not comparable to Luo Tong. Ino naturally knows this. When he heard that Wu Zechen had taken action, the look on his face softened a lot.
"Let's focus on checking the concubines. After all, if the Luo family girls entered the palace as concubines, those concubines and the families behind them would only be affected. The emperor is actually more willing to let the Luo family girls enter the palace."
There was a chill in Ino's eyes: "When the Luo family was destroyed, the person who benefited had the most motive and was also the person most likely to commit this matter. It is definitely right to investigate this aspect."
Luo Tong nodded, her thoughts were the same as Ino's.
The brother and sister chatted for a while, and Lindong came in to report the progress of the matter, without shying away from Ino.
"The mother and son of Xia Zhihe are the source of the tragedy of the emperor's aunt and are the chief culprits. They two bear the responsibility, but what is going on with the Li family? What about Li's natal family?"
Yi Nuo asked this question when she learned that Luo Tong had started to take action against the Xia family and the Li family.
He knew what Xia Zhihe and his son had done, and he had found out a lot about it. In addition, during this period, Luo Tong had already told him everything he found out, but he didn't know about the Li family's affairs. Too clear.
"The Li family was able to be so arrogant and unscrupulous in attacking their mother and the Sun family, and then covered it up so cleanly afterwards, mostly because of the Li family's involvement. After all, Xia Zhihe didn't have the ability at that time." Luo Tong's eyes were filled with chills.
At that time, Xia Zhihe was still a low-level official. He had just entered the officialdom and was not capable of concealing such a big thing for Li.
Although there was his support and connivance, it was the Li family, Mr. Li Ge, Li's mother, and Li's brother who really took action. No one was innocent.
Luo Tong told Yi Nuo everything about the Li family, and immediately got Yi Nuo's support. These people who had harmed Princess Luo Yue made Luo Yue and Luo Tong go through a lot of suffering, and even lost their lives. , no one can escape.
Knowing that Luo Tong had made arrangements, Ino said nothing more. He knew that Luo Tong was a man of his own opinion. Since Luo Tong wanted to take revenge in his own way, he just had to do his best to support him.
After sitting for a while, Yi Nuo saw that Luo Tong had a lot of things going on today, so he didn't stay for long, got up and left.
As soon as Ino left, Zhuxuan hurried into the main room with a solemn look on her face.
"Zhuxuan, what's wrong? What happened?"
"Princess, something happened in the West Courtyard." Zhuxuan looked a little unhappy, "The news just came back. Today, Miss Qingqing went out to a banquet with Concubine Xu Bei. As a result, she suddenly vomited in someone else's house and fell asleep on the spot. Call the doctor."
"As a result...Miss Qingqing was announced in public that she was pregnant, and it has been more than a month!"
"What?!" Luo Tong was startled, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Wu Qingqing is pregnant? !
how come!
She was still an unmarried young lady, how could she be pregnant? Who is the child's father?
Questions suddenly came to her mind, but what puzzled her the most was that the mother and son in the west courtyard were all profit-seeking, and they had made up their minds to let Wu Qingqing climb high, otherwise they wouldn't have delayed their engagement until now.
But since she had made such an idea, how could she get pregnant before marriage?
"Have you said who the man is?" Luo Tong asked repeatedly, an ominous premonition welling up in his heart.
"The man..." Zhuxuan hesitated for a moment, and the look on her face became more and more ugly, "No one has come out to admit who the man is, but Miss Qingqing and Concubine Xu Side have firmly established that he is Mr. Zuo of Zuo Xiangfu!"
Mr. Zuo from Zuo Xiangfu...
There is only one person in Zuo Xiangfu...
Luo Tong's face instantly turned cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "They are relying on Xi Yan?"
The reason why he uses the word "laishang" is because Luo Tong knows very well that there is no way Zuo Xiyan can like a woman like Wu Qingqing.
Even if Wu Qingqing took off her clothes and stood in front of Zuo Xiyan, Zuo Xiyan would not pay attention to Wu Qingqing. How could he be good with Wu Qingqing and have a child?
Unless Wu Qingqing used a trick to attack Zuo Xiyan, and when Zuo Xiyan was unconscious...
Luo Tong has seen this kind of thing many times. It seems that many so-called famous ladies like to use this trick to force men to agree to marriage.
Although Luo Tong felt that with Zuo Xiyan's intelligence and alertness, he would not fall for Wu Qingqing's tricks, she didn't know the specific situation at the moment, so it was hard to make a judgment.
Thinking that Zuo Xiyan might have been tricked by Wu Qingqing or even relied on him, Luo Tong suddenly became restless and even wanted to ask Zuo Xiyan about the situation.
But he probably doesn’t have time to see himself now. After all, what happened just now happened and he was stumbling...
"Yes, it's Young Master Zuo Xiyan!" Zhuxuan gritted her teeth and nodded, "The incident just broke out, and the house was busy at the moment. There were quite a few people attending the banquet today. I guess it has spread by now. Someone has gone to notify Zuo Xiangfu."
"I heard the news from the secret guard that Wu Qingqing and Concubine Xu were crying in the mansion, looking like they were greatly humiliated. They shouted that if Zuo Xiangfu didn't give an explanation today, they would cause trouble to the emperor. Go ahead and never give up.”
After Luo Tong heard this, he became even more angry. The mother and son in the West Courtyard were really capable of making monsters. It seemed that during the recent period, he and Wu Zechen had no time to talk to them. Their skin was loose again, so they took advantage of the opportunity. Start looking for trouble!
"Immediately send someone to the West Courtyard to thoroughly investigate this matter! In addition, based on the time of Wu Qingqing's pregnancy, we should check all their whereabouts around the time of the birthday banquet!"
Luo Tong gave the order and walked out with a strong momentum and fierce eyes: "Prepare the car! Go and have a look!"
