"What's going on?" The eldest princess sat down and interrupted the conversation between the two.

Jiang Yuan sighed and told all the possible parts of the story. Finally, he said that when they saw that the thieves did not catch up with them, they thought that the thieves went after the Jiang Mansion's carriage convoy.

So they quickly returned to Beijing to report the case to the government office, but unexpectedly they ran into people from the Jiang residence who also came to report the case.

The more the princess listened, the more she frowned. She was a very shrewd person and had made her own judgment after listening.

Mother Cui's face was not looking good either. Looking at the eldest princess's expression, she didn't say much.

"It's good that there was no danger. As for the investigation, leave it to the Supreme Court." After the princess finished speaking, she turned to Mother Cui and said, "Pick two girls with good skills to protect you."

Jiang Yuan wanted to refuse, but he didn't say anything. Having someone to protect him could save him from a lot of trouble, so he readily agreed.

After seeing the eldest princess off, he gave Chunzhi some instructions and asked her to go find the coachman Brother Liu the next day and tell him about it.

Jiang Yuan slept peacefully, but the Jiang family was in chaos all night.

Jiang Wan didn't know how those people died, and now she didn't dare to go to Prince Jin's Mansion to find Qin Yunzheng. Thinking about Jiang Yuan's appearance today, and how she would face the prince if the plan failed, she was really angry and worried.

Jiang Zhou also had a worried look on his face. He felt it was a bit risky from the beginning and didn't want to agree. But what Jiang Wan said made sense. If he waited any longer, Jiang Yuan would become more powerful and it would be even harder for him to control him.

What's more, he really wanted to kill Jiang Yuan, but he didn't want to ruin her reputation for fear of implicating Jiang Wan.

Things had been arranged very well and everything was developing according to plan, so why did those people die? Now the case has been handed over to the Supreme Court for investigation. He dared not even think about it if he found out that he had hired someone to murder his own daughter.

The entire Jiang Mansion really had a sleepless night.

King Jin's Mansion

Qin Yunzheng has had a high fever since he came back, and he is completely frightened.

The princess was even angrier. Seeing her son being frightened like this, she became even more dissatisfied with Jiang Wan and what a bad idea she came up with.

Qin Yunzheng had lived a life of luxury since childhood. He had never seen a chicken being killed, let alone a person being killed. It would be strange if he was not frightened to death by facing so many corpses.

The doctor also said that he was frightened and overly frightened and needed to rest well.

Qin Yunzheng didn't sleep much the whole night, and when he closed his eyes, he saw the corpses all over the ground.

The princess thought of the two calming incense pills that Princess Anyang gave her last time, and hurriedly had someone hang them on the head of Qin Yunzheng's bed. Miraculously, not long after they were hung up, Qin Yunzheng, who had tossed and turned all night, actually fell asleep peacefully.

The princess still didn't know her son well enough. In her previous life, she saw with her own eyes Jiang Yuan's fingers being chopped off one by one. His wails of pain were very satisfying to her.

Jiang Yuan didn't know that in her previous life, she had used a hairpin from her maid's head to pierce her own artery. Seeing the blood gushing out, Qin Yunzheng was so scared that he developed nightmares.

There was also Jiang Wan. At that time, she touched Jiang Yuan's blood with her hands like a madman, and got herself covered in blood. This scene left a shadow in Qin Yunzheng's heart. After Jiang Yuan's death, he felt nauseous and wanted to vomit every time he saw Jiang Wan, and even felt that she smelled of blood.

An Chen returned to the Supreme Court with a serious look on his face.

Qin Mowei was waiting for him at the Tingwei Mansion. When he saw him open his mouth, he asked, "How is it?"

An Chen looked very unhappy. He sat down, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp. "There are seventeen of them in total. Judging from their attire, they should be bandits from the nearby mountains."

"Then why do you look so heavy?"

"Because of the cause of their death, all seventeen of them were stabbed in the throat with a sword. There were no other wounds on their bodies except for the fatal wound on their necks.

He killed them in one move, without any delay. Moreover, the seventeen people did not even have any other wounds, which showed that they had almost no ability to resist the murderer.

They all held knives and were all strong mountain bandits, but they died with just one move. Prince, are there such people in the martial arts world?"

Qin Mowei also frowned. He just made it sound more serious just to stop the matter, but he didn't expect that he was right.

At first, he thought the guard's words were a bit exaggerated and didn't take them to heart, but he had to believe An Chen's words.

Even An Chen was shocked by his skills, so he must not be an ordinary person. Is there such a person in the world? If so, is he in the capital? What is he doing in the capital? Is there any danger? And so on.

"Sir, don't worry too much. I saw that this killer was very decisive and killed the man with one strike. He might be the enemy of the bandits.

The assassins we hired at a high price will not endanger the safety of the people in the capital."

This is also possible, but things have come to this point, and we can't take it lightly. Qin Mowei thought for a moment and said, "How about this, notify the city defense camp and the imperial guards to strengthen the security of the capital and the palace."

An Chen nodded in agreement, hoping that nothing would happen.

After finishing his business, An Chen remembered Qin Mo's abnormal behavior today and asked curiously, "Hey, do you know that Miss Jiang Er?"

"I met her once at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet. She was brought by the Princess."

An Chen pinched his chin and said angrily, "Ah, then is this girl a suspect? Should we investigate her?" As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Mowei.

Qin Mowei gave him a sidelong look, and An Chen surrendered immediately, "I was just kidding, just kidding."

Leaning back on the chair, he held his head in his hands, "That girl was in such a miserable state, being bullied by everyone in the Jiang residence. It's really hard to bear to see a beautiful girl crying. Please understand."

Qin Mowei looked at the sky outside which was gradually getting darker, "In a bad state? Being bullied?" He recalled the day when he saw her at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet.

At that time, she had red marks on her face, which were caused by her older sister. She also looked aggrieved at the time.

But later I found out that she was slapped once, but she slapped back four times, making Miss Jiang's face swollen. So, is she the kind of person who would suffer injustice?

Although she sat down on the steps crying today, forming a sharp contrast with all the people standing, from a sensory perspective, one would have a preconceived notion that she was wronged and was the one being bullied.

He didn't do anything, but just because of that scene, Jiang Zhou was blamed, and so was Miss Jiang. It would be difficult to clear the rumors that she was jealous, hot-tempered and arrogant.

Thinking about it this way, she really has good means.

Seeing that Qin Mowei didn't say anything, An Chen also fell silent, recalling the scene at that time and the second Miss Jiang.

As I thought about it, a smile appeared unconsciously on the corner of my mouth. If you think about it carefully, hey, it's quite interesting.
