The cat’s face revealed a human-like look of worry.
Within the hall, Chai Xing ‘er nodded slightly. alright, you can ask.
Hearing this, everyone present, including Xu Qi ‘an, held their breath and waited for the answer.
“Thank you for your cooperation, benefactor.” Jingxin pressed his palms together.
He immediately executed his commandment and said in a deep voice, “”Did you kill Chai Jianyuan?”
As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible but majestic force pressed down on Chai Xing ‘er’s body, making her feel that people should be born sincere and that people who lie don’t deserve to be human. In such a state, she couldn’t tell any lies, so she replied, ‘
“I didn’t kill him.”
She didn’t kill Chai Jianyuan … This … This is different from what I thought. Wasn’t she the one who poisoned him, then quickly killed Chai Jianyuan, then lured Chai Xian over and framed him?
Jingxin had already used the commandments to question Chai Xian, so there was no need for him to lie about this matter. However, if it wasn’t chai Xing ‘er or Chai Xian who had killed him, who could it be?
Xu Qi ‘an, who was under the window, suddenly realized that the case was more complicated than he had imagined.
Jingxin and Jingyuan looked at each other and frowned.
I knew Xing ‘er wouldn’t do such a thing. Then who killed Chai Jianyuan? Li lingsu was overjoyed, but at the same time, she frowned, feeling that the case had become more complicated.
“Are you the one who killed people and refined corpses all over Xiang Zhou?” Jingxin asked again in a deep voice.
“It wasn’t me, it was Chai Xian,” Chai Xing ‘er shook her head.
Under the spell of commandment, she would only tell the truth and not lie.
Chai Xian was furious and his emotions were out of control.’You have an accomplice, you have an accomplice.”
Jingxin’s eyes lit up. While the commandment spell was still active, he asked,
“”Who are your accomplices? did your accomplices do it?”
“I don’t have any accomplices. I didn’t kill big brother, nor did I commit the murder outside,” Chai Xing ‘er replied honestly.
He wasn’t lying. This … Jingxin and Jingyuan looked at each other and saw the surprise and confusion in each other’s eyes.
At this point, it could be concluded that Chai Xing ‘er was innocent. She didn’t kill anyone or have any accomplices, so she couldn’t be the mastermind.
However, the case also fell into a new stalemate.
“This is impossible, this is impossible …” Chai Xian mumbled.
He seemed to be unable to accept such an ending.
Under the window, Xu Qi. an fell into deep thought. If it was not Chai Xing ‘er or Chai Xian, then the possibility of it being Chai LAN was very high … But the problem was that this lady had never appeared from the beginning to the end.
There were too few clues to make a judgment.
Xu Qi ‘an felt like he had returned to the time when he was in the capital, working hard on all kinds of cases.
“Where’s Chai LAN?” li lingsu suddenly asked. Have you all forgotten about Chai LAN?”
Hearing li lingsu’s words, Chai Xian broke free from his mumbling thoughts and glared at her.
Xiao LAN has disappeared for a long time. You can accuse her however you want.
Chai Xing ‘er said,
“I don’t know why the precepts are useless against Chai Xian, but he did kill eldest brother. The Xiang Zhou murder case was also done by him. This was what the people of the chai residence saw with their own eyes. There were also many people who saw him commit the crime. Why doesn’t Grandmaster believe me?”
Jingxin said,
“It’s impossible for Chai Xian to resist my precepts. He’s not lying. In addition, benefactor Chai Xing ‘er, there are many suspicious points in your words. Sage Chai wasn’t an evil person by nature, so why would he kill his foster father for the sake of benefactor Chai Lan’s marriage?
“Compared to that, isn’t elopement a safer option?”
Smart, this monk and Xu Qian were thinking the same thing … Li lingsu nodded slightly.
Chai Xing ‘er sighed,
“I was hiding something … In fact, Chai Xian, he, he is my brother’s illegitimate son.”
This sentence was like a sudden clap of thunder that resounded in everyone’s ears. Jingxin and Jingyuan were slightly moved and shocked.
Xu Qian was right, Chai Xian was really Chai Jianyuan’s illegitimate son … As expected, Xing ‘er knew about this … Li lingsu was not surprised because she already knew this secret.
As for Chai Xian, his pupils contracted violently as if he had encountered a strong light. His face was as stiff as a stone sculpture. From his dull eyes and blank expression, one could tell that his mind was in a mess and he could not think.
Chai Xing ‘er continued,
“His personality has been extreme since he was young. Big brother was afraid that he would not be able to accept this fact, so he has been hiding it and raised him as an adopted son. As he grew up, he gradually developed feelings for his sister.
“Big brother had no choice but to marry Xiao LAN off to the Huangfu clan through marriage.
“I didn’t expect Chai Xian to be so resentful that he killed his big brother. He’s so extreme …”
“You’re talking nonsense!”
A loud shout interrupted her. The veins on Chai Xian’s forehead were bulging, and he was obviously furious.
“Chai Xing ‘er, don’t make irresponsible remarks. My parents passed away when I was young, and my foster father took pity on me and adopted me because I had the aptitude. It’s fine if you slander me, but you also want to slander him. You’re a vicious woman.”
Monk Jing Yuan frowned and questioned Chai Xing ‘er, “”What evidence do you have?”
Chai Xing ‘er turned to look at the door, “The evidence is here.”
Then, he heard the monk outside the hall berate him, “”Who’s there?”
Jingyuan looked in the direction of the door and said loudly, “”What happened?”
“Senior brother Jingyuan, a walking corpse is approaching,” the monk outside the door replied.
Jingyuan glanced at Chai Xing ‘er and said, “”Let ‘him’ in.”
The door to the inner hall was pushed open, and a man in gray clothes walked in. His eyes were dead, and his skin was pale and bloodless, like a walking
corpse..
