Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Hearing this, Luo Xuehai's face turned pale, but he still cheered up and smiled.

"I don't understand what your Highness means."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I can explain it to you one by one. But you should know that if you confess yourself, you can get a lighter punishment. If I lay out the evidence one by one, there will be no room for maneuver."

"The Crown Princess can't produce any evidence, so she threatens me with the law? This is ridiculous!"

"evidence?"

Xu Xingyin chuckled, "We have found Luo Xuehai's body and are escorting him back to Beijing. We will take you to see the evidence you want when the time comes."

"How did the Crown Princess know that it was Luo Xuehai's body and not someone else's? Could it be that the Eastern Palace only needs to make up a fascinating story to investigate the case?"

"Luo Xuehai broke his leg when he was three years old. Although he looks fine after recovery, there are still marks on his bones. With a brief comparison, we can tell whether the body is Luo Xuehai's. It's not difficult."

"Haha!" Luo Xuehai laughed when he heard this. "There are so many people in this world who have broken their legs. If the Crown Princess wants to verify it, why not remove the meat from my leg and see if there is any trace inside!"

Luo Xuehai dared to say this because he was sure that Xu Xingyin would not dare to act in this way. After all, the entire Eastern Palace was behind her and she could not afford to take the risk.

"It's just recognizing a person, why is it so cruel to cut the meat off?"

Hearing Xu Xingyin say this, Luo Xuehai couldn't help but reveal a smug smile, but before the smile completely faded away, he heard Xu Xingyin say again.

"It is rumored that after Qian Ming's death, Luo Xuehai was betrayed and his personality changed drastically, so much so that he ignored his former confidantes. I am kindhearted and cannot bear to see a beauty cry, so I have invited the ladies of Baihua Pavilion to have a small gathering with you tomorrow. It must be a touching scene for old acquaintances to meet each other, right?"

"Women in the red-light district can confuse right and wrong as long as they are paid. Do you think their words are worthy of being used as evidence?"

"You feel unworthy?"

Xu Xingyin asked back and then smiled, "That's fine. There are more people who know Luo Xuehai well than just his confidantes. I have already sent someone to the south to invite the master and mistress of the Luo Mansion to come, so that your family can be reunited."

Luo Xuehai's face turned pale. "The journey is long, but the Crown Princess asked two elderly people to travel a long distance to the capital. If something happens on the way, I wonder if the Eastern Palace can bear the reputation of killing innocent people!"

At this moment, "Luo Xuehai" had long lost his previous indifference and threatened people so directly, which made Xu Xingyin realize that he had really hit the other party's sore spot.

"Don't worry. Although the journey is long, our people will take good care of the two elders. Oh, by the way, Qian Ming's parents are also invited."

"Luo Xuehai" had lost his patience with Xu Xingyin's stubborn attitude and roared.

"I don't know how I have offended the Crown Princess to the point that she is targeting me like this. You can kill me or chop me up, all is up to you. I only hope that the Crown Princess will let me die knowingly!"

"You don't have to provoke me like this. I am here to interrogate you today because I am fully confident. Why would a playboy change his temperament overnight? How could a man who is always nitpicking send money to the family of a betrayer? How could a son or a husband instigate this? Qian Ming, do you really think you are flawless?"

A series of questions caused Luo Xuehai's originally upright back to slowly bend. Xu Xingyin knew that the other party was shaken, so he quickly took advantage of the situation and pursued him.

"Right now, all the evidence is on the way. You can resist, but the truth will come out sooner or later. Luo Xuehai has been looked after like an eyeball since he was a child, and he has never broken his legs. It is normal for Qian Ming to not know about it since he entered the Luo Mansion at the age of five, but it is a bit absurd that Luo Xuehai himself did not know about it, right?"

Only then did Qian Ming realize that he had fallen into Xu Xingyin's trap, but he still refused to admit it.

"It was just a slip of the tongue. Could it be that the Crown Princess is going to hold on to it?"

"I know that Luo Xuehai has committed many evil deeds and deserves death. If you had protected yourself with the law instead of the sword a few years ago, you might have had two different endings now. Qian Ming, this is your last chance."

After saying this, Xu Xingyin said no more. He just gave his order and turned around and walked out slowly.

Xu Xingyin had learned the palace etiquette so well that she could hardly hear the footsteps and could only see the graceful figure getting farther and farther away through the screen.

If Qian Ming refused to confess today, the students would make trouble at dawn and the East Palace would be forced to release him.

This release means that this clue is likely to be broken.

"and many more!"

When Xu Xingyin was about to reach the corner, he finally heard Qian Ming's voice, which made Xu Xingyin's heart settle down.

Xu Xingyin's heart almost jumped out of his chest with excitement, but he couldn't show it on his face. He could only turn around and said calmly:

"how?"

"Yes, I am Qian Ming."

Qian Ming's self-deprecating chuckle concealed countless sorrows and slowly revealed the long-forgotten story.

Qian Ming was born into a poor family and was sold to the Luo Mansion as a slave at the age of five. Because he was of similar age to Luo Xuehai, he was assigned to be Luo Xuehai's study companion.

The old couple of the Luo family hoped that their son would become successful, but Luo Xuehai was not good at studying. Instead, his study companion Qian Ming was more knowledgeable.

However, the old couple of the Luo family did not give up their son's dream of becoming an official. Seeing that Qian Ming looked 70% similar to Luo Xuehai, the old couple had a bad idea - to let Qian Ming take the exam in place of Luo Xuehai.

Qian Ming's knowledge was indeed good, and he actually passed the Spring Examination. After Luo Xuehai tasted the sweetness of being a "talented scholar", he became more and more wary of Qian Ming, not allowing him to show up, talk to strangers, etc.

Under layers of rules, Qian Ming was controlled by the Luo family like a tool that only knew how to take exams.

The only consolation is that the compensation given by the Luo family is not bad, enough to pay for Qian's father's high medical expenses.

But later, Qian Ming accidentally caught Luo Xuehai doing something wrong, which made Luo Xuehai unhappy, so all his monthly wages were deducted.

Qian's father was short of money for medical treatment, and Qian Ming pleaded many times but to no avail. He had to take the calligraphy and paintings out to exchange for money, but he was discovered and reported to Luo Xuehai.

Luo Xuehai was worried that the news would affect him once it got out, so he openly used this as an excuse to punish Qian Ming and have him send him back to Jiangnan, but secretly he wanted to kill Qian Ming.

Qian Ming accidentally learned of Luo Xuehai's plan and tried to escape at night but was discovered by Luo Xuehai. During the argument between the two, Luo Xuehai died accidentally.

In order to save his own life, Qian Ming calmly disposed of the body, staged a disappearance scene, and then took off his mask and lived as Luo Xuehai.

"You know the rest."

After hearing the whole story, Xu Xingyin couldn't help but sigh and spoke directly to the point.

"So, they're just using this to threaten you to do things for them?"
