However, the price of forbearance was that the innocent girl was humiliated by a beast in front of a group of men. The outcome was either hanging from a beam or falling into a well.
Was there any meaning to revenge after that?
The young girl was still dead.
What Xu Qi ‘an wanted at that time was not revenge, but the girl’s safety.
With a slash of the saber, his thoughts were clear and he had no regrets.
“I’m different from Lord Wei …” He sighed in his heart and asked, Duke of Wei, how do you know that the princess Consort won’t be able to see the North vanquishing Prince?
A strong suspicion rose in his heart. He suspected that it was Wei Yuan who betrayed the princess Consort.
“I’ve sent back the maids that Yang Yan asked the Imperial Army to send back to King Huai’s residence,” Wei Yuan said slowly. With Yang Yan’s character, if there was no problem with these maidservants, he would send them directly to King Huai’s residence and not to me. On the other hand, it meant that there was something wrong with these maids.
“After I asked about the situation, I knew that you must have saved the princess. Yang Yan also had this suspicion, so he sent the person back to the Yamen. Other than Yang Yan, no one else had seen the scene. Your ‘suspicion’ is very light, so ordinary people won’t suspect you.
“But with His Majesty’s suspicious personality, he won’t let go of any possibility. At that time, they might send people to investigate. However, he doesn’t have the mood or energy to care about the princess “Affairs.”
No wonder before leaving Chu Zhou, Yang Yan told me to ask Lord Wei for help
Xu Qi ‘an heaved a sigh of relief. It was a blessing to have a group of godly teammates.
Wei Yuan narrowed his eyes and put on a serious face.
“Before the diplomatic mission set off, His Majesty had made an unnecessary move to tell me that the princess Consort would be accompanying. He was warning me not to play any tricks. I didn’t expect that the princess
“whereabouts would still be leaked.”
“Duke of Wei, I want to report the details of this matter,” Xu Qian said.
Wei Yuan’s deep eyes brightened slightly, and he sat up straight, ‘”‘Tell me about it.”
“There’s a group of warlocks supporting the barbarians in secret. That day. I killed … When we went over, we found a sorcerer mixed in with the Barbarian experts.”
“The mastermind behind the silver Tax case?” Wei Yuan asked.
…….. Xu Qi ‘an choked and sighed in his heart. With Wei Yuan’s intelligence, how could he have overlooked the mysterious sorcerer that appeared in the tax case?
“The former Assistant Minister of Revenue, Zhou Xianping, is most likely one of that mysterious Warlock’s men. I’ve looked for the supervisor for this matter, but the old thing didn’t give me an answer. However, I’m certain that this mysterious person still has some minions in the court.”
After Wei Yuan and Xu Qi ‘an mentioned it, they subconsciously changed the topic and did not continue the discussion.
The shift was so natural that even they didn’t realize that something was wrong.
what are you planning to do with mu nanzhi? ‘
Wei Yuan said with a half-smile.
“What do you think, Lord Wei?” Xu Qi ‘an humbly asked for advice.
let’s recuperate as a mistress, ” Wei Yuan said after a moment of silence. but be careful to control yourself. Don’t occupy other people’s bodies before you reach rank-3. Otherwise, it would be a waste of God’s gift.”
Aiya, Lord Wei, you’re too vulgar, hehehe.
“Any other questions?” Wei Yuan looked at him with a gentle gaze. “What is so special about the princess? What is her identity?”
This doubt had been in his heart for a long time.
“Go to the cloud deer Institute and find a book called” the remains of the great
Zhou. “You’ll know after you’ve finished reading it,” Wei Yuan then asked, ”
“Any more questions?”
Xu Qi ‘an shook his head.
“What are your plans now that you’ve brought the North vanquishing Prince’s body back to the capital?” Wei Yuan asked.
Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an’s expression became serious and his tone was firm. “Convict the North vanquishing Prince and bring justice to the people of the
Chu Prefecture city.”
He had been a police officer before, and he valued a final sentence the most. The North vanquishing Prince had committed such a brutal and inhumane act of massacring a city. Even if he died, he would not be able to leave behind a good name.
Wei Yuan looked at him. you’re not good at court matters. Don’t bother about this.
“What do you mean?” Xu Qi ‘an was stunned.
Wei Yuan didn’t answer and finally took a sip of the warm tea.
Xu Qi ‘an stood up, cupped his fists, and left the noble spirit building.
Ministry of Justice!
Constable Chen didn’t have time to go home. After he left the palace, he rushed to the Yamen.
He walked into the hall and saw Minister sun dealing with government affairs. Constable Chen said respectfully, “”Minister, your humble servant has returned to the capital.”
Minister sun was stunned and raised his head in shock.”When did you return to the capital?”
Constable Chen crossed the threshold and entered the hall. He said in a low voice, “”1 have just returned to the capital and immediately came to see the
Minister.”
It seemed that the bloody massacre case had not been solved … Minister sun made a judgment in his heart. He lowered his head to read the official document and said lightly, “”How’s the investigation going?”
He did not make such a judgment purely based on speculation. It was based on his rich experience in officialdom.
If a major case like the bloody massacre of three thousand li was investigated, the diplomatic mission would definitely send a letter in advance, and the Emperor would definitely hold a small court meeting in the Imperial study to discuss the matter.
However, he didn’t receive any news, which meant that the case had ended without a cause, so no one paid attention to it.
Constable Chen looked at Minister sun, who was working at the desk, and said softly, ‘”‘The Chu Prefecture city is gone …”
Minister sun replied with a “hmm” and didn’t care much about it. After a few seconds, he slowly raised his head as if he had just reacted. He stared at Constable Chen and said word by word,
“What … Did … You … Say?”
Constable Chen took a deep breath and added, “”lt’s North Vanquisher King’s..”
