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 âan wanted at that time was not revenge, but the girlâs safety.
With a slash of the saber, his thoughts were clear and he had no regrets.
âIâm different from Lord Wei âŠâ He sighed in his heart and asked, Duke of Wei, how do you know that the princess Consort wonât 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.
âIâve sent back the maids that Yang Yan asked the Imperial Army to send back to King Huaiâs residence,â Wei Yuan said slowly. With Yang Yanâs character, if there was no problem with these maidservants, he would send them directly to King Huaiâs residence and not to me. On the other hand, it meant that there was something wrong with these maids.
âAfter 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 âsuspicionâ is very light, so ordinary people wonât suspect you.
âBut with His Majestyâs suspicious personality, he wonât let go of any possibility. At that time, they might send people to investigate. However, he doesnât have the mood or energy to care about the princess âAffairs.â
No wonder before leaving Chu Zhou, Yang Yan told me to ask Lord Wei for help
Xu Qi âan 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.
âBefore 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 didnât expect that the princess
âwhereabouts would still be leaked.â
âDuke of Wei, I want to report the details of this matter,â Xu Qian said.
Wei Yuanâs deep eyes brightened slightly, and he sat up straight, âââTell me about it.â
âThereâs 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.â
âThe mastermind behind the silver Tax case?â Wei Yuan asked.
âŠâŠ.. Xu Qi âan choked and sighed in his heart. With Wei Yuanâs intelligence, how could he have overlooked the mysterious sorcerer that appeared in the tax case?
âThe former Assistant Minister of Revenue, Zhou Xianping, is most likely one of that mysterious Warlockâs men. Iâve looked for the supervisor for this matter, but the old thing didnât give me an answer. However, Iâm certain that this mysterious person still has some minions in the court.â
After Wei Yuan and Xu Qi âan mentioned it, they subconsciously changed the topic and did not continue the discussion.
The shift was so natural that even they didnât realize that something was wrong.
what are you planning to do with mu nanzhi? â
Wei Yuan said with a half-smile.
âWhat do you think, Lord Wei?â Xu Qi âan humbly asked for advice.
letâs recuperate as a mistress, â Wei Yuan said after a moment of silence. but be careful to control yourself. Donât occupy other peopleâs bodies before you reach rank-3. Otherwise, it would be a waste of Godâs gift.â
Aiya, Lord Wei, youâre too vulgar, hehehe.
âAny other questions?â Wei Yuan looked at him with a gentle gaze. âWhat is so special about the princess? What is her identity?â
This doubt had been in his heart for a long time.
âGo to the cloud deer Institute and find a book calledâ the remains of the great
Zhou. âYouâll know after youâve finished reading it,â Wei Yuan then asked, â
âAny more questions?â
Xu Qi âan shook his head.
âWhat are your plans now that youâve brought the North vanquishing Princeâs body back to the capital?â Wei Yuan asked.
Hearing this, Xu Qi âanâs expression became serious and his tone was firm. âConvict the North vanquishing Prince and bring justice to the people of the
Chu Prefecture city.â
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. youâre not good at court matters. Donât bother about this.
âWhat do you mean?â Xu Qi âan was stunned.
Wei Yuan didnât answer and finally took a sip of the warm tea.
Xu Qi âan stood up, cupped his fists, and left the noble spirit building.
Ministry of Justice!
Constable Chen didnât 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, ââMinister, your humble servant has returned to the capital.â
Minister sun was stunned and raised his head in shock.âWhen did you return to the capital?â
Constable Chen crossed the threshold and entered the hall. He said in a low voice, ââ1 have just returned to the capital and immediately came to see the
Minister.â
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, ââHowâs the investigation going?â
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 didnât 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, âââThe Chu Prefecture city is gone âŠâ
Minister sun replied with a âhmmâ and didnât 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,
âWhat ⊠Did ⊠You ⊠Say?â
Constable Chen took a deep breath and added, ââltâs North Vanquisher Kingâs..â
