174. Chapter 174 Her lip color is charming and seems to be tempting 2
Then Long Qijin and Long Qihao opened a warehouse to stockpile grain, and the local people were grateful. This move won them a lot of hearts...
However, this credit had to be shared equally with the sixth prince, Long Qihao, and Long Qijin was really not happy about it.
However, because the two of them had cooperated in the previous suppression of bandits, and they knew that although this kind of thing was to grab credit, it should not be overdone and criticized, they had no choice but to work together as hard as possible and handle the matter in the shortest possible time.
*Event, return to Phoenix City.
The two sons performed well, and the emperor was naturally happy. He rewarded Long Qihao and Long Qijin with many things. For a while, the prestige of Long Qijin and Long Qihao was enhanced.
On the other hand, when Long Qijin left Phoenix City, he left his most capable subordinate Qi Ping behind to search for clues about the killers who attacked Dongfang Lian.
Qi Ping was very good at spying on information, and nothing in the world could be done without a doubt. There would always be subtleties in everything. No matter how careful Murong Yi was, Qi Ping still found out the clues.
"Your Highness, please take a look."
Qi Ping presented the information that he had checked for more than ten days, which recorded the details of the killers, "Those people came from Cang Yi Pavilion. Although the people who took over the task were relatively low-ranking people in Cang Yi Pavilion, Cang Yi Pavilion is
The most prestigious killer organization today, the success rate of the missions they take is very high. If they hadn't met Prince Ouyang's guards that day, maybe Miss Sixth would have... met with something unexpected!"
"hateful……"
Long Qijin's heart trembled at the thought of something unexpected happening to Dongfang Lian.
He looked through the files and saw a person's name...
"It's actually her!"
The murderer who paid for the murder did not expect it to be her. "They say a tiger's poison cannot feed its child. Isn't she her mother?"
"Your Highness?"
Qi Ping frowned, "When we found out that the person who came into contact with Cang Yi Pavilion was actually someone close to Mrs. Zuo Xiang, we were also surprised, so we checked everything about Mrs. Zuo Xiang. However, there didn't seem to be anything unusual. Miss Six,
She is indeed the daughter of Mrs. Zuo Xiang. Everyone in the Dongfang Mansion knows about this matter. I think if there is any hidden secret, there should be some old people who know the inside story, right? But everyone we investigated said that
Miss Six is the biological daughter of Mrs. Zuo Xiang..."
"Really? If it's true, that's... terrible." Her mother actually wanted to kill her?
Is there some unsolvable grudge between mother and daughter that is unknown to outsiders?
…
It's night.
Long Qijin put the found evidence on Dongfang Lian's table, "This is the only evidence that can be found. Everything was done very cleanly. It was not that she personally paid for the murder, nor was it the maids around her, or even with the town.
It has nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion. She is just a woman who occasionally delivers food to the Duke's Mansion. The Queen is also investigating and has ordered Dali Temple to catch the woman. Now the people in Dali Temple are forcing confessions for interrogation..."
"Haha, will she reveal the real culprit behind the scenes?"
Dongfang Lian smiled leisurely.
"It's probably a bit difficult. If she were to betray the master, she might end up in a more miserable state..."
"I really don't want to let her go!"
Murong Yi! Dongfang Lian tapped his fingers heavily on the table.
Long Qijin looked at her like this and his eyes darkened, "We need to wait now. The old woman is in Dali Temple. There are some of my troops there. I can do some things, such as spreading the news that the old woman wants to confess.
As a result, the murderer behind the scenes will definitely be anxious. When people are anxious, trouble will occur, and evidence of her crime may be caught by then..."
