That's right, at this time, the sweet potatoes baked by Li Mingjin himself came out, and he was peeling off Luo Shuyu's charred coat. His fingers were stained black, and Luo Shuyu actually said that Jiao Huáng's deliciousness should not be peeled off.

Chen Rong thought to himself that the royal couple was very lifelike.

Li Mingjin pointed to the small basket on the side: "If you want to eat it, you bake it yourself."

Chen Rong didn't really want to eat roasted sweet potatoes, so he sat down and drank the high-quality tea from Li Mingjin, all of which were brought over from the capital. It would be a pity not to enjoy it.

Luo Shuyu asked him, "Mr. Chen, I heard from Dr. Lin that you were not feeling well the first two days. Are you feeling better now?"

Chen Rong said, "My senior brother made a fuss, nothing happened, he just coughed."

After Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu shared a sweet potato, they cleaned their hands and drank tea with Chen Rong.

The atmosphere was quite harmonious, and for a while I really didn't know how to speak.

Li Mingjin suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, the Fourth Prince recently checked an old case. This case may be related to the Yan family. I think you will be interested in this old case."

Chen Rong is still very interested in the case, and is very sharp: "What kind of old case?"

In the eyes of others, he is erudite and talented, and many people are willing to ask him to solve their problems.

Li Mingjin said while observing Chen Rong's reaction: "Fifteen years ago, when General Wei was still in Gucheng, there was a major case of food embezzlement. There are many officials involved, and even the minister of the household is involved."

Luo Shuyu didn't say a word, but he observed it carefully. When he mentioned this case, the smile on Chen Rong's face stiffened for a moment.

Chen Rong also observed their expressions and took a deep breath: "You called me here today to discuss the details of this case with me?"

Li Mingjin shook his head: "What do you think?"

Chen Rong: "Your Highness may wish to speak directly."

Li Mingjin: "That's right, I know you are a happy person. When you entered my door, I did investigate your identity. There is no problem with your identity. The past is very simple, but the simple past is not enough to make you With the determination to assist me, I want to know if you are hiding it from us."

Chen Rong smiled relievedly: "It turns out that His Highness has long suspected my identity."

Yes, Li Mingjin doubted it, but he never confirmed it. This time he jumped out of an old case, and he figured it out at once, otherwise he wouldn't have promised to call Chen Rong when Luo Shuyu mentioned it. Chen Rong got the correct answer.

Li Mingjin: "I don't want to know the reason why you entered my door from someone else's mouth."

What a smart person Chen Rong is, he looked at Luo Shuyu, but this time he didn't call him honorably, "How about you?"

Luo Shuyu said, "My Highness and I have the same idea."

Chen Rong picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Yes, my relationship with the Chen family is very close."

Luo Shuyu watched Chen Rong's expression drop, and had a hunch that what Chen Rong was going to say next might not be as easy as he imagined.

If the Chen family returned to their hometown safe and sound, why would Chen Rong live in another Chen surname home? Another kind of incognito.

Luo Shuyu tried his best to calm himself: "It's very related, who are you from the Chen family?"

Chen Rong said, "In terms of seniority, I am your cousin."

Luo Shuyu did not expect to recognize relatives so quickly.

Li Mingjin: "You said yes? How can you prove that you are the Chen family?"

Chen Rong said: "You wait for me for a while, I will ask someone to go back and get something. I thought about confessing my identity to you, but I have never found a chance."

He asked the person who was serving him to go back and get something.

During the waiting period, Chen Rong told them some details about the "Gucheng Liangchen Case".

Chen Rong: "The Gucheng Liangshang case is actually far from being as simple as we imagined. There are many details in it. Before my father left, he left me a note, which describes the details of the Gucheng Liangshang case. In this case, my father and other convicted officials were all framed by others. In fact, the whereabouts of those rations are still unknown. If someone uses that batch of silver, it must be related to this case. I went to the capital to investigate this matter secretly. But all the evidence has long been covered up. However, I have also found a few people, and found some evidence, which is related to the Yan family. Four years ago, I was almost discovered during the investigation, and I entered your door. "

Li Mingjin raised his eyebrows and said, "Come to my house to hide in peace?"

Chen Rong said frankly: "It really meant this at the beginning. At the time, it seemed that the Third Prince's Mansion was not well-regarded, so it was very suitable for me to secretly inquire about some things. However, I didn't expect His Majesty to give you marriages. Later It changed my mind."

"You already knew about my relationship with you, but you didn't tell me." Luo Shuyu was a little angry, but he didn't know what he was angry about.

A flash of grief and anger flashed in Chen Rong's eyes and said, "I can't say that my grandfather was killed when he returned to his hometown, and I also survived by stealing it. Only dead people won't leak secrets, and I won't think about overturning the case."

Luo Shuyu's hands trembled slightly: "What did you say? My grandfather was killed on the way back home?"

Chen Rong recalled: "Yes, my father and mother, the whole family except me was killed. I was hidden in the grass by my grandfather and father to escape the disaster. Later, I was rescued by a passing couple with the surname of Chen. My son was infected with the cold on the way and died, so he raised me as a parent, so no one knows my true origin, and I am actually happy that you can doubt me today because of the surname Chen."
