The Prodigal Son of the Empire

But she found that Wang Kangzhi had been extraordinarily calm and clear-headed until now when he was assassinated. In order to find out the identity of the assassin, he even came to examine the corpse himself.

Li Qingman couldn't help admiring this.

The prodigal son that was rumored outside?How ridiculous!

Suddenly, Li Qingman noticed that Liu Jin was staring at her blankly, to be precise, he was looking at her hair, the hair that was originally bound by the hairpin had now fallen apart, and the long hair was loose.

He found it!

Li Qingman knew that Liu Jin must have known that the hairpin that stabbed the assassin to death belonged to her, which is easy to reason.

"Miss Li..." Liu Jin said.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't!" At this time, Wang Kang said without raising his head.

"Yes!" Liu Jin nodded. Originally, he had a big opinion of Li Qingman. In his opinion, if the young master hadn't been obsessed with beauty, he wouldn't have stopped him from following him.

Now it seems that this popular oiran in Yangzhou is not an ordinary person. He personally inspected the bodies of the two assassins, so he naturally knows why they died...

Naturally, Wang Kang didn't know Liu Jin's thoughts, he had already picked up the assassin's hand at this moment.

Cold, chills, no trace of temperature!It even made Wang Kang shiver.

But Wang Kang didn't seem to care. He looked carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He found that the assassin's right index finger and middle finger had a thick layer of calluses.

He felt with his fingers, and the touch was obvious.

Wang Kang closed his eyes, he was imagining how to use the three-link crossbow.

After a while, he opened his eyes, and from this point, the identity of this person can be confirmed.

He stood up and said, "Whether this assassin is from the army is still uncertain, but one thing is certain is that he must often use this kind of machine-buckled crossbow!"

"Why do you say that?" Liu Jin asked suspiciously.

"Look at his index finger and middle finger. There are calluses on the skin on the fingertips. It doesn't happen overnight. It only happens when you frequently pull the motor button!" Wang Kang said.

Hearing this, Liu Jin hurriedly squatted down to check, and then looked at Wang Kang in surprise. He had checked this corpse before, but this point was an omission.

But my young master unexpectedly discovered this subtlety.

Is this still the prodigal young master?Liu Jin couldn't help thinking.

Naturally, Wang Kang didn't know what Liu Jin was thinking, and said again: "According to what you said, it is basically certain that this assassin is from the army!"

"The only regular army in Yangzhou City is the garrisoned city defense, led by General Zhao Boguang Zhao," Liu Jin wondered, "General Zhao has a pretty good relationship with Lord Earl. He shouldn't be sent to assassinate you. There is no reason for that!"

"Your thinking is wrong." Wang Kang looked at the corpse on the ground and said coldly, "Of course only General Zhao is in command of the army, but there are others who can command a few soldiers!"

"You mean?" Liu Jin's face was full of shock.

"Inspector Dong Yiwu!" Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "Don't forget that the Inspector is the highest official in a state, who controls the people's livelihood and government, and can also control the army!"

"That shouldn't be the case. As far as I know, Dong Yiwu is in Xinfeng County with the Earl. Besides, what good will it do him to assassinate you? Although he is in the same situation as our Earl's Mansion, it will not reach this point. This is already It's breaking the rules!"

"It's not worth it at all. He should understand the consequences of assassinating you..." Liu Jin said again.

"He can't, but the people below him are not necessarily!" Wang Kang sneered, and a face appeared in his mind.

"I already have some ideas in my heart, but I still need to confirm," Wang Kang ordered: "Let the private soldiers from the mansion come over as soon as possible, and make the scene bigger for me. The bigger the better!"

"In this way, some people should be anxious!"

"Yes!" Liu Jin responded.

"Then where are you going? You must have been shocked by the assassination. It's better to send you back home first, and make plans after dawn, and leave the rest to us."

Liu Jin asked again.

"I'm going to meet someone, and I'll understand everything when I see him!" Wang Kang said lightly.

"Then you have to take me with you this time," Liu Jin said hastily.

"You can't, you still have to arrange things here, only you know best, just send me a team." Wang Kang said.

"But?"

"I'll follow him, don't worry!" Li Qingman said suddenly at this moment.

"Then... alright!" Liu Jin stopped insisting.

"It's just that this jade hairpin can't be worn anymore!" Li Qingman looked regretfully at the jade hairpin that was still stuck on the assassin's forehead.

This jade hairpin was given to her by Wang Kang, or he put it on for her himself, which made her quite fond of it.

"I'll give you another better one."

Wang Kang knew what Li Qingman was thinking, and said with a smile.

"That's what you said!"

"Well, it must look better than this!" Wang Kang nodded solemnly.

Seeing this scene, Liu Jin couldn't laugh or cry. Is it really okay to flirt on this occasion?

"Boom!"

A thunder suddenly sounded in the distant sky, and the sky became even more gloomy, even the moon was covered by dark clouds...

Looking at the pitch-black night, Wang Kang sighed, what a long night!
