In the Ling Mansion's mansion, Aunt Han helped Ling Zhongqing drink the medicine, helped him tuck the quilt in, and then handed the bowl to the maid.
After the maid went out, the whole room became quiet.
Not long after, Ling Xitai came back.
As soon as the door to Ling Zhongqing's bedroom was pushed open, everyone was eagerly waiting. Especially Ling Zhongqing, who looked like he was dying just a moment ago, but the next moment he was already rubbing his head and asked hopefully: "How is it?"
Ling Xitai sighed heavily.
The veiled Ling Qingyun on the side couldn't accept this result, so she jumped up and asked:
"How is that possible! Master, he is a master of the ninth level of Tianxuan. Apart from the green-robed elders of the Holy Palace, who in the Phantom Continent can reach the ninth level of Tianxuan or above?
Don't tell me that bitch Ling Qingyue is a master of Shenxuan! If she were Shenxuan, I would still be the Holy Master!"
Although Ling Qingyun's words were mostly angry, everyone felt that they were reasonable.
"That's right. If that girl is really so powerful, she wouldn't have let us bully her like that before." Aunt Han also said in agreement.
"But I have searched all the fellow disciples that I can contact, and except for someone who knows that Master went to kill Ling Qingyue last night, no one knows the result.
In other words, since Master went to kill Ling Qingyue, no one has seen him again. If he was not killed, why didn't he report to us? And if his assassination was successful, why is Ling Qingyue still alive?
Now that Ling Qingyue is alive and the master has disappeared like Qiao Mengluo, doesn't it mean that the master has been killed?"
"Impossible! No! Impossible!" Ling Qingyun obviously still couldn't accept this fact.
"Nothing is impossible. Don't forget, there is a Xuanwang beside her."
Ling Zhongqing narrowed his eyes slightly and continued his analysis:
"Although we all think that King Xuan has no power and is an idle prince, but maybe he is hiding something secretly and just pretending to be good at everything."
"Dad, you mean... King Xuan deployed his own forces to protect Ling Qingyue, so the master died?"
"Otherwise, can you think of other possibilities?"
"But didn't you say that even the guards on the left and right of the prince are only masters of the seventh or eighth level of Tianxuan? Could it be that the people around King Xuan are more powerful than the prince?" Ling Xitai asked.
"It's hard to say. Everything will be clear when Ling Yun comes back."
Ling Yun is Ling Zhongqing's right-hand man and his confidant. Many cases such as the Salt Case and the Canal Case were planned and implemented by him. Ling Zhongqing has great trust in him. Even the guards Cao and Yan beside the prince
Ling Yun also takes extra care of the guards on weekdays.
This time Yan Huwei came to Jizhou to investigate the case of Cao Huwei's disappearance. Apart from Ling Zhongqing, the only person who could contact Yan Huwei was Ling Yun.
Ling Zhongqing, Aunt Han, mother and son waited anxiously from noon until midnight. Finally, Ling Yun came back.
"How is it?" Ling Zhongqing asked immediately when he saw Ling Yun.
Ling Yun glanced at Aunt Han and her children in the room.
Ling Zhongqing said: "Don't worry, they already know and won't tell anyone. It's all for this sake. We are all a family and we should find a solution together."
After Ling Yun heard Ling Zhongqing's words, he suddenly knelt on the ground with a "pop" sound.
