The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Faced with the surprise of the men in black and other subordinates, Youming Jiuchong remained calm.

He did not explain the confusion to everyone, and continued, "Not long after the old couple adopted the young master, the young master unexpectedly disappeared. At the same time, the old couple was reported to the government office by someone who stole someone else's child and raised him in their own name. They were so scared that they went to the government office to report the case."

"They said they wanted to raise the child, but unexpectedly the child was stolen..."

Netherworld Nineth Level snorted coldly and said in a cold voice: "This way, the couple has a reason to escape punishment, and the people in the government office cannot verify whether their words are correct, so they can only let them go. But the young master is definitely gone."

He had expected this. When the young master was kidnapped, he was in a critical condition. The journey would definitely affect the health of a two-year-old boy. He might have died of illness. Or if no one took good care of him, he could easily have died...

"Mingjun, you are right!" The man in black widened his eyes, looking incredulous. It was amazing. How did Mingjun guess this series of events? He was simply a prophet.

Seeing the doubtful looks of his subordinates, Netherworld Nineth Level first replied: "This Lord knows human nature."

There is evil in human nature.

An elderly widowed couple who accidentally have a child certainly don't want to make it public.

But even if they hide it well, people around them will notice it. After all, a two-year-old boy is not old enough to control his crying. Moreover, they live in a densely populated slum, and any abnormal behavior in daily life will be quickly discovered by people around them.

There will always be people who can't stand seeing the old couple doing well and will definitely go to the government to file a complaint.

During this period, the young master may have died due to illness. The old couple was summoned by the government, and in order to avoid being convicted, they could only lie that the young master was stolen.

The people in the government office could not find any result in the investigation, so they could only release the couple. They also thought it was just an ordinary case of a poor couple who wanted to adopt someone but were not allowed to, and then they lost the file recording the incident. It seems that Xu Houshan, the former Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, was unreliable, not to mention the group of pigs under his command.

Netherworld Jiuchong's analysis was so logical and reasonable that his subordinates were simply full of admiration for him.

The man in black nodded repeatedly and sighed, "Yes, the subsequent development of the young master's incident is just as you expected, Lord Ming."

Netherworld Nineth Level paused, then changed his tone and continued, "The young master's statement that he was no longer alive may be true. However, I think that perhaps the cause of his death can be further investigated..."

"What does Lord Ming mean?"

"We cannot rule out the possibility that the young master was suffering from illness before he was kidnapped." There were different causes of death before and after the young master was kidnapped.

People with unusual backgrounds often have to live in an even more special environment. Even infants and young children can hardly resist the harm of others.

Take the case of the Night King for example. Before the late emperor passed away, the emperor had already secretly poisoned his body.

"Then what should we do? Please enlighten us, Lord of the Underworld." The man in black looked thoughtful and spoke in an earnest tone.

Netherworld Nine Levels did not answer directly, but asked in return: "I have told you before that if you find out the result of the young master's incident while I am away from the capital, do you remember what to do?"

"Please rest assured, Lord Ming. I have already sent someone to pass the message to the Soul Stealer Yuanxi's people on my way to report the news to you."

"Yes." Nether Nine nodded, then continued the previous topic and proposed a solution -

"The Soul-stealing Yuanxi's people will tell us if anything happened to the young master before he was kidnapped."

In other words, the people in the Underworld Palace don’t need to do much, the soul-stealer will give instructions.

Netherworld Nineth Level glanced at the gradually understanding expressions of the crowd, and continued to analyze: "If the young master had been poisoned for a long time, then his death shortly after being kidnapped was also a foreseeable result. We don't need to investigate the cause of death."

"If the young master is healthy, then his death after being kidnapped is worth our further investigation. Did someone attack him when he was kidnapped? Or was it a normal death of the baby? And what kind of specific accident was this..."

Netherworld Nine’s analysis was very clear, and everyone said they understood.

Netherworld Nine looked up at the sky. A shattered moon was hanging high in the sky, and dark clouds began to cover the already dim moon.

He stood up and left the old wooden chair.

He looked back and said to the man in black, "You can just provide clues to Soul Stealer normally. When I return to the capital, I will negotiate with Soul Stealer Yuanxi about the outcome of the young master's case."

He believed that the people of Soul-stealing Yuanxi would be extremely shocked when they received the results of the incident with the young master.

"Understood!" the man in black replied with a fist salute.

Youming Jiuchong thought about what the man in black had just reported. When this subordinate came here to find him, those subordinates who stayed in the capital should have been searching for the current whereabouts of the old couple. They should be conducting confirmation work in the slums on the outskirts of the capital, namely the Doumen District and Wuxin District on the outskirts of the city, or even the slums in the city, namely the Dongtai District.

At present, we have found out that the young master is dead, and we have also found some clues about his experience after he was kidnapped. However, the subordinates who stayed in the capital still need to further verify the authenticity and accuracy of these clues.

As long as the old couple are not dead, his people will definitely be able to get more information from them.

For more detailed investigations, he would have to return to the capital to start...

Youming Jiuchong issued the orders one by one, thinking that Yun Mujiu might not have written him a new letter yet, or that the new letter was still on the way to be delivered by the secret guards.

After a pause, he looked at his subordinates who came from the Underworld Palace and asked.

"How is Yun Mujiu?"

The man in black was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "Lord Ming, the princess..." After thinking about it carefully, it didn't make sense. Shouldn't he call her "Princess"? The person asking the question was Lord Ming. Should he call Duke Meng's granddaughter Yun Mujiu "Madam Ming"?

The man in black trembled and tentatively replied, "Sir, Madam Ming..."

"Madam Ming?" Youming Jiuchong was originally displeased when he saw the cowering appearance of his subordinate, but now his expression became a little subtle when he heard this novel title.
