Chapter 388: Ling Xue'er
After hearing these words, Li Jingyang's expression became extremely complicated, but he did not doubt Lin Rusi.
Although, in this respect, the whole thing is indeed quite absurd.
However, Lin Rusi had no reason to deceive Li Jingyang.
So after thinking it over, Li Jingyang nodded.
"In that case, what we need to do now is to deploy more people to strictly monitor the emperor of Qing Kingdom."
After saying these words to Lin Rusi, Li Jingyang got up and left the bedroom to arrange the subsequent itinerary for the servants.
These servants, of course, did not disappoint Li Jingyang's expectations of them.
They infiltrated the Qing Kingdom Emperor's palace at top speed.
And we also gleaned a rather useful piece of information from it.
"Your Highness, we have received news from the Qing Kingdom's palace."
"There is another person hiding with the Emperor of Qing."
As the servants recounted this, Li Jingyang's brows furrowed.
"After a thorough investigation, we discovered that the woman looked very much like the general's wife. We don't know if she was a stand-in."
It seems that the Emperor of Qing Kingdom does indeed have some tricks up his sleeve.
Li Jingyang simply didn't know who this woman was.
If someone looks exactly like the general's wife, could they possibly be the general's wife's daughter?
Even though Li Jingyang already had such suspicions in his heart, he still told Lin Rusi the news that the servants had obtained.
After hearing this news, Lin Rusi nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that all of this is exactly the same as what Lin Rusi heard in her previous life.
Moreover, if that woman really exists, she is probably the daughter born to the general's wife.
Originally, the entire general's mansion was wiped out, leaving only this woman—Ling Xue'er.
However, later, in order to take revenge, Ling Xue'er willingly became a prostitute.
However, she endured humiliation and hardship, and finally, through her perseverance, she became the head of Lingxiao Pavilion.
However, Ling Xue'er's purpose in becoming the head of Lingxiao Pavilion was to obtain various information and gain the trust of the Qing Emperor.
However, she eventually succeeded in all of this, but it took her three years.
Over the past three years, Ling Xue'er has been constantly building her network of connections, using all kinds of information from different directions to her advantage.
Moreover, this woman is ruthless.
In the end, Ling Xue'er gained the trust of the Emperor of Qing and used Gu poison to control him.
Even after being brought under control, the Emperor of Qing still did not know Ling Xue'er's true identity.
However, Ling Xue'er had an exceptionally strong purpose: she wanted the emperor to avenge her mother.
However, if they wanted revenge, they wanted to use the Qing Emperor to kill their current emperor.
It seems this woman has enormous ambitions, and is also exceptionally cunning and treacherous.
Thinking of this, Lin Rusi frowned deeply.
Li Jingyang, who was standing to the side, felt a little sorry for her and wondered what Lin Rusi was thinking.
"Asi, what's on your mind again? These things are so messy and complicated. You must have had a hard time these past few days."
After all, Lin Rusi had been running around and worrying about Li Jingyang's matter these past few days.
Therefore, Li Jingyang didn't want Lin Rusi to continue working so hard.
So Li Jingyang hugged Lin Rusi tightly.
"After you drink this medicine, rest. Asi, I'll take care of the rest."
Li Jingyang gently picked up the medicine bowl beside him.
However, when Lin Rusi looked down at the dark Chinese medicine in the bowl, she couldn't help but stick out her tongue.
Therefore, Lin Rusi did not refuse the bowl that Li Jingyang handed her, but she still hesitated before finishing the medicine.
"This medicine is really bitter, Your Highness... but it's not too hard, I can still do a lot of things."
Lin Rusi tilted her head back and smiled sweetly.
Seeing this, Li Jingyang felt incredibly sweet inside.
"Does Asi have any plans at the moment? What should we do next?"
Seeing Lin Rusi's confident demeanor, Li Jingyang couldn't help but ask her a question.
However, Lin Rusi only twitched the corner of her mouth, touched her head, and said to Li Jingyang with some hesitation.
"I want to meet that woman privately first; maybe I can get some useful information from her."
Upon hearing Lin Rusi say that she was going to see that woman, Li Jingyang immediately became nervous.
After all, that woman is indeed in great danger right now.
We can't let Lin Rusi meet her alone like this.
Therefore, Li Jingyang shook his head and disagreed with Lin Rusi's suggestion.
"We don't even know who that woman is or where she comes from, so how can we go to see her without her consent?"
"Besides, things are still very chaotic right now. What if something unexpected happens to you?"
Li Jingyang held Lin Rusi's hand tightly, refusing to let her take such a risk.
Lin Rusi felt a headache coming on when she saw how determined Li Jingyang was.
"How could something have happened to the prince? What outrageous thing could a woman like her do?"
Lin Rusi spoke while thinking, and after listening for a while, she continued.
"Besides... she doesn't know what kind of identity I have when I meet her."
Actually, what Lin Rusi said wasn't entirely unreasonable, after all, this woman had been searching in the shadows all along.
Besides, this woman's target wasn't Lin Rusi.
Besides, Lin Rusi is capable of disguise; she could easily transform herself into someone else and go see that woman, wouldn't that be enough?
Despite Lin Rusi's continued attempts to persuade Li Jingyang.
However, Li Jingyang firmly believed that the woman was quite dangerous and was afraid that Lin Rusi would be harmed.
Therefore, he has always disagreed with Lin Rusi's request.
"Asi, I told you long ago it was extremely dangerous. You absolutely mustn't take such a risk again. Your body can't take it anymore!"
Seeing Li Jingyang's stern expression, Lin Rusi gave up, pouted, and sat down on the bed.
"That's right. I'll grant you your other requests after you've recovered your health."
Li Jingyang gently stroked Lin Rusi's face and spoke softly, making Lin Rusi feel exceptionally at ease.
Since Li Jingyang disagrees, it's better to act secretly on my own.
Lin Rusi rolled her eyes as she smiled at Li Jingyang.
"Alright, alright, I'll agree to anything, Your Highness! Oh dear, I'm so sleepy, and it's getting late, so I'll go to sleep now!"
After pretending to yawn twice, Lin Rusi lay down in bed and pulled the blanket over her head.
When Li Jingyang saw Lin Rusi's well-behaved appearance, he felt genuinely fond of her.
He immediately lay down on the bed and held Lin Rusi in his arms, and the two of them fell asleep like that.
