The emperor looked at the kneeling Rong Qian who still had a trace of power left. After a long while, he said, "Then the two of you will investigate this together and the person behind this! We must get Jin He back as soon as possible! "
Seeing that the emperor didn't refute what he had just said, Rong Gan understood in his heart that the emperor was more satisfied than satisfied. He immediately left the imperial study with Yu Cheng.
"Thank you, Sixth Prince, for being willing to follow me to find me." He spoke to her in gratitude.
As soon as he heard this, he turned around and looked at Yu Cheng with a serious expression. "I am the future consort of the Sixth Prince. It is only right that I look for her. Prime Minister, there is no need to do this."
Seeing that Rong Qing did not care that much, he should have been happy in his heart. However, the current situation did not make him happy. He let out a sigh and said, "Sigh, I don't know who made this hatred with me. It's really difficult to find out."
"As long as I have done it, I will definitely leave behind some clues. Prime Minister, do not worry, this prince will definitely find Little'er and bring her back." After saying this, the two of them no longer said anything.
Not long after he had left for the military, Rong Qian went back to his residence and said, "Call Little Seven and Little Eight over here!"
Not long later, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba rushed over to the study room. Upon seeing them, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba's faces turned dark, "This prince wants you to protect Jin He and Princess!" Is this how you protect yourselves!? "
Right after he finished speaking, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba immediately kneeled on the ground with their heads lowered, "This subordinate knows his wrongs! "Please punish me, Your Highness!"
"Go and bring the Dark Group to investigate who actually dares to kidnap a princess." I'll deal with you guys later! " Hearing this, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba immediately obeyed and left.
At this point, Chu Tianjiao had arrived at the Sixth Prince's residence. Seeing the situation, he immediately asked, "Honorable Prime Minister, have you found any clues?" Yuichi nodded.
"We found a destroyed carriage in the empty alley south of the city. There were still a lot of bloodstains on the ground, but we couldn't see Su'er." Hearing that, Rong Gan immediately got up and rushed to the south side of the city with Yuejing.
As soon as the guard saw that they had arrived, he immediately stepped forward and reported, "Sixth Prince, this is the place. Judging from the surroundings, there must have been a fierce battle and we even found quite a few silver needles on the ground."
As he said this, he handed the silver needle wrapped in a white cloth to Rong Gan to take a look. After seeing the needle, he knew that it was rare. "This silver needle belongs to Jinhe Princess, do you have any other discoveries?"
The guard shook his head, "Nothing else. Aside from a male corpse, nothing else was found. However, from the bloodstains on the scene, it seems that more than one person died at that time."
Upon hearing this, Rong Gan had already walked towards the corpse that he had discovered. He lifted the white cloth that was covering the corpse and said, "This was sent by this prince to Jin and Princess Jin to protect them."
As he said this, he noticed that the person's palm seemed to be pulling something away from his hand, and he discovered that it was a small piece of black cloth. "Your Highness, it's brocade. Ordinary people simply cannot afford it, much less use it on these assassins."
Rong Gan nodded his head as he thought over the feud he had with the young master before speaking, "Go and invite Miss Cheng from the Duke of Cheng's estate to the Board of Justice."
Cheng Yuan was already frightened when she was at the palace and needed her mother to beg before escaping. She didn't expect to be invited to the Ministry of Justice before she had a chance to live peacefully.
The Ministry of Justice imprisoned some felons all year round. Every day, they would be tortured. As time passed, the stench of blood in the Ministry of Justice's prison wouldn't dissipate.
Cheng Yuan was brought here and smelled the thick smell of blood. Cheng Chong opened her mouth and almost vomited, and the screams of the prisoners could be heard from time to time.
Cheng Yuan sat on the chair and shivered a little. Fortunately, she came over after a while. Even if it was civil servants, they still couldn't stand the smell when they first came to the Ministry of Justice prison. She left after saying a few words to him.
"Miss Cheng!" Please do! Buying criminals to kidnap the princess was a heinous crime! "Don't be bewitched, Miss Cheng."
Cheng Yuan had been locked in her room ever since she returned home, so she still didn't know much about her disappearance. When she heard Rong Gan's words, she looked confused, "Did the sixth prince find the wrong person?" This subject doesn't know what His Highness is talking about. "
"Does Miss Cheng really not know!?" Yesterday, Jin and Princess had been kidnapped on the streets after leaving the palace. Up until now, it's still unclear whether she's dead or alive, but Miss Cheng has nothing to say! " Her tone was very cold.
Cheng Yuan was shocked. After she understood the meaning behind her words, she immediately waved her hands and said, "Sixth Prince, don't speak carelessly. I didn't do that. Your Highness must show evidence to avoid wronging the good people!"
Upon hearing this, Rong Qian sneered, "Good person? If it wasn't for that small palace maid not agreeing to Miss Cheng's request, would Miss Cheng still be ridiculing Jin He in the mansion? "
After speaking, she stood up and said, "As the suspect in the kidnapping of Zin and Princess Zin, Miss Cheng was locked up here before Zin and Princess Zu could find her."
Hearing that, Cheng Yuan didn't know where she got the courage and immediately shouted at the back: "If I can't find it in a lifetime, then I'll be imprisoned for a lifetime! Why should I! "
Upon hearing Cheng Yuan's words, Rong Gan paused for a moment before saying to the guards, "You must take good care of Miss Cheng." Then she left.
Not only Cheng Yuan, but even the rare Yu Yu Qi who was locked in the palace was imprisoned by Imperial Concubine Liu under all kinds of excuses. She had to suffer a lot before being released.
News of the kidnapping soon spread through the streets of the capital. At the same time, news of what had happened at the palace banquet spread and many people were sighing at Cheng Yuan and Qi.
At this moment, on the other side of the forest, in the depths of the bamboo house, there was not a single trace of blood on his face.
"Come quickly and look! She's dying! " Hearing this, the few men outside the bamboo house immediately ran into the house. One of them took out a finger to feel his pulse.
He then fed Yu Yu Yu a pill, "Her tendons in her arms and legs have all been cut off, and there are also many sword wounds on her body, the situation is very dangerous, the food given to her just now can only temporarily protect her heart veins, if she can't be treated in time, then she will be a cripple at least if she doesn't die due to luck."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
