Four members of the royal family died in vain. If the first two were just insignificant people in the royal family, then the Lord of Rongan County and Feng Jiaxuan were not.
The Lord of Rongan County is the most beloved granddaughter of Princess Jingde, and Feng Jiaxuan is the grandson of King Xiang who has high hopes for her.
"Within three days, you must give me an explanation!" King Xiang was grieved and angry at Zhang En, the minister of Dali Temple, and Luo Helin, the young minister of Dali Temple.
The two Dali Temple officials looked at each other.
But can they say they can't do this?
Unless I no longer want to be on duty at Dali Temple.
Three days, thirty-six hours, really tight.
Zhang En and Luo Helin made a plan and had no choice but to invite Nan Ming to investigate first.
"Master Nan, why did you go to Prince Xiang's Mansion today?"
"I was invited by Mr. Sui to help him solve some doubts about his homework."
"When you left yesterday, was there anything strange about Young Master Shei?"
"Nothing, no different from usual."
"Do you have frequent interactions with Mr. Sui?"
"It's not that good. Mr. Shen is preparing to take the exam next year. He has been studying hard this year. Because I was once the number one scholar and I am about the same age as him, so I can talk about it, so if I encounter any incomprehensible questions while studying,
Mr. Sui will discuss it with me. But I only take a bath once every ten days. Everything is complicated, so my interactions with Mr. Sui are not frequent."
Luo Helin and Zhang En looked at each other.
Nan Ming's words are consistent with those of Feng Jiashui, a servant of Prince Xiang's palace. Because he was going to the examination room, Feng Jiashui really took a fancy to Nan Ming.
"Mr. Nan, what do you think of Young Master Shei as a person?"
"Diligence and progress."
"How do you get along with Mr. Sui?"
"The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water."
"You and Mr. Sui are also friends. When something happens to him, you don't seem to be sad."
Luo Helin's question was a bit sharp. Nan Ming looked at him with a solemn expression: "Being sad will not help. Catching the real culprit and bringing justice to the young master is the most important thing now."
Zhang En nodded: "What Mr. Nan said is true. Since we all hope to find the real culprit as soon as possible, Mr. Laonan will stay in Dali Temple for these two days. If there are any clues, we can confirm with you in time."
"Okay, in order to find the real culprit as soon as possible, I will temporarily stay in Dali Temple to cooperate with the investigation."
Nanming readily agreed, which surprised Zhang En and Luo Helin.
When they learned that the two deceased people were more or less related to Nan Ming, their intuition from many years of handling cases told them that Nan Ming must be involved.
But now they want to detain Nan Ming without any evidence, but Nan Ming agrees. The two of them are a little unsure: Could it be that these two cases have nothing to do with Nan Ming?
However, whether there is a connection or not, intuition cannot count, evidence does.
All the personnel of Dali Temple worked day and night to investigate these two cases - or in other words, to investigate the common clues of the four deceased persons, Feng Jiachi, Sun He, Rongan County Lord, and Feng Jiashui.
While investigating the case, Luo Helin also stopped by the Imperial Academy to find the Master Jijiu.
Feng Jiachi and Sun He died in some kind of ancient sacrifice, which was the clue given by Master Jijiu. However, there is no evidence to support this conclusion. He cannot write in the case file that the soul of the deceased was taken away.
Who is the person who stole their souls? Is it really a ghost?
