Rebirth as Princess Jin again

"No blood? How did the guard die? Don't tell me you didn't know!" Weiying's finger joints gradually turned white, and his hands holding the cell door began to use force involuntarily.

"I just did business with him and returned to the city after the business. How do I know how he died?" Su Cheng was not afraid at all and insisted not to admit the matter.

The guard camp snorted coldly: "Hmph... Now that you have entered this cell, you will never get out alive. We, the guard camp, will not only do what the guard failed to accomplish, but also kill you to avenge him."

Su Cheng's face changed slightly and he said solemnly: "Do you want to carry out lynching in Pingcheng? The county magistrate here is a good official and he will not allow you to do this!"

Wei Ying said in a cold voice: "There is no one in this world who cannot be tempted by fame, fortune and money. By the way, there is one thing you may not know. After you were captured last night, thieves entered your mansion and all the money was looted. But it doesn’t matter, you are going to die soon anyway, and you can’t take these external things with you anyway, so why not let those people snatch them away, maybe you can use some of your remaining energy.”

"You!! Shameless!!" Su Cheng's expression suddenly changed, and the hand pointing at Weiying began to tremble slightly.

Wei Ying stretched out his hand and squeezed his fingers tightly and smiled: "If you want to get what you want, you should do whatever it takes. Don't worry, it won't be long before everyone in your Su family will go down to accompany you, and... Jin king...."

After Wei Ying finished speaking, he laughed and left the cell.

Early the next morning, there was a knock on the door of the Weiying residence. Seeing that the visitor was Wang Jin, the concierge hurriedly opened the door.

Wang Jin hurried to the backyard, and when he arrived at the room, he broke into the room without even announcing anything: "Master Wei, it's bad, something happened."

Wei Ying had just gotten up and was washing up. He said with some displeasure: "Master Wang, why are you so alarmed?"

Wang Jin said angrily: "There was a fire in the cell where Su Cheng lived last night, and everyone... was gone..."

Wei Ying stared at him coldly: "Okay, how come there was a fire? But it is confirmed that the body is Su Cheng himself."

Wang Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was out of breath because he ran too fast. When his breathing became more stable, he said: "The fire was too strong and everyone was burnt, but judging from the clothes and body shape, it should be It’s undoubtedly Su Cheng.”

Wei Ying's expression was shocked. He thought of Wei Heng's incident and said coldly: "Could it be Jin Chan's plan to escape from his shell? Was there any other movement in the cell last night?"

Wang Jin lowered his eyes and said: "Impossible. The people guarding the cell last night were all my confidants, and your Excellency's people have also been guarding outside the cell. If someone wants to make some noise, it is impossible not to notice it."

Wei Ying looked at the man in black beside him. The man hurriedly retreated. After a while, the man came back and reported: "Sir, our people said they didn't find any movement. The oil lamp was overturned and the fire started. The fire was too big. The cell was simple, with windows for ventilation, and hay was put there to help fuel the fire, and it was too late to discover it.”

Wei Ying thought for a long time and said to Wang Jin: "Master Wang, don't be anxious. It would be better if you died. It would save us trouble. Let us spread the word and say that Su Cheng was killed by the robbers."

Wang Jin wiped the thick beads of sweat on his forehead, bowed and said, "Yes, I will take care of it now."

After Wei Ying finished handling the matters in Pingcheng, he hurried back to the capital. He needed to find a proper place to put the silver coins in order to avoid being discovered by the people of the Su family.

However, when he arrived in the capital, he found that the people transporting the money had not returned yet. Logically speaking, those carriages and horses had set off two days before them, and they should have arrived long ago, or they could have met them halfway, but they walked along the way and did not meet them. Not touched.

Wei Ying felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that something was wrong, so he could only send people along the road to look for it.

Two or three days later, as soon as he returned from the guard camp, he heard a piece of news that shocked him and immediately rode to the East Palace.

Entering the study, Situ Yan saw his hurried expression and sent all the servants out, leaving only the two of them in the study.

Situ Yan looked at him quietly and said, "I have never seen you so panicked. What happened?"

Wei Ying gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, I just received the news that the silver coins brought back from Pingcheng are missing, and our people were thrown into the wilderness!"

Situ Yan looked shocked and said in disbelief: "How is it possible? We sent so many people there and hid our whereabouts when we left the city. Only you and I know about this. Su Cheng was also arrested."

Wei Ying lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "There was a fire in the cell that night, and Su Cheng died in prison."

Situ Yan said coldly: "How could this be? Something is wrong. Why does it seem like someone knows what we are doing and is always one step ahead of us? Are you sure Su Cheng is dead?"

The guard hurriedly replied: "Our people are guarding outside the cell, and no one is robbing the prisoner. He should be dead."

Situ Yan's eyes flickered: "Are there any clues left at the scene?"

Weiying said bitterly: "Our people were drugged and then killed. They brought their own food and did not stay in an inn. I don't know who is so clever and clever that they even know the route we want to take." , if I catch this group of people, I will have to skin them."

Situ Yan glanced at him and said indifferently: "There's something wrong with this. I'm afraid it's our skin they want to peel off now."

Wei Ying suddenly lost confidence and said softly: "Then what should we do now?"

Situ Yan glared at him: "You are becoming more and more useless now. The Wei family's shop can't be defended, and you can't even handle such a small thing. Why don't you come back with the Yunyin team and spend two days in Pingcheng?" day."

Wei Ying said quickly: "It's all my fault. I will definitely not disappoint the prince in the future."

Situ Yan snorted coldly: "Now we don't even know each other's purpose. I'm afraid there will be consequences for this matter. You are now the commander of the guard camp. Go and take down the soldiers who have been guarding the city for the past few days to find out. Look at these few days." There may be a caravan entering the city, and the most important thing now is to find and hide the money, and we must not let anyone find out that Su Cheng's death is related to us."

Wei Ying nodded and said, "I understand, I'll take my leave now."

The guard camp did not go back to the guard house directly, but went to the guard camp. Soon, they learned from the defenders that before the city gate was about to close three days ago, a group of people pushed several large wooden barrels into the city. There were many wooden barrels placed, and they were said to be filled with pickles. There were many barrels at that time, so they only checked a few barrels and let them go if there were no abnormalities.

Weiying ordered his personal guards to follow this clue and found a house in the west of the city. The yard had been vacant for a long time and was an abandoned yard with overgrown weeds.
