Mu Nian did not delay and ordered: "Mu Shuang, take good care of Miss Ajin. Hong Yu, take care of Miss Ajin's meals."

Yin Luo raised her hands and bowed in the direction of Zi'an: "Miss, please tell me what I want to say."

Zi'an nodded: "Sorry to bother you, Butler Mu Nian. I don't need your service for the time being."

After saying that, he turned around and went back into the house. He couldn't delay Linglong's business. He saw Linglong winking at Mu Nian just now.

When the door closed, Mu Nian winked at Mu Shuang, turned around and looked at the pale-faced Hong Yu with a complicated look, endured the pain in his feet, and quickly chased in the direction Linglong left.

"master."

As soon as Mu Nian turned the corner of the corridor, he saw Linglong standing by the pavilion with a tall figure.

Linglong turned around and looked at Mu Nian, "You drive the carriage now, collect the herbs here." She handed a piece of rice paper to the half-bent Mu Nian, "From now on, always pay attention to the news from Qingshan Town, and go directly to the master if there is anything. Don't bother with Hongyu."

She needed a large amount of medicinal materials to refine the elixir. Just as these materials were collected and the carriage had bypassed the entire Qingshan Town, Mu Nian, who wanted to know the truth, could also pass it on to An An in time.

Mu Nian bowed again, took the letter from Linglong with both hands, and said respectfully: "Yes, Master."

After all, the master has to hide his identity and cannot kneel.

The two men left the bookstore and got on a carriage, one inside and one outside. After turning a corner, the exquisite carriage disappeared.

Linglong left Qingshan Town and leaped towards Ji Yang with a clear purpose.

??

At this moment, Taohua Village is filled with solemnity and rigor.

"Wen Shanchu, you fool, your mother couldn't save you this time even if she risked her life!"

"I think you just read too much, idiot."

Violent roars rang out one after another, and villagers knelt down all around.

Wen Shanchu, who was kicked down by Yan Yan, spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at the two corpses in the mess in front of him with empty eyes.

"No, that's impossible. She couldn't have died like this."

Seeing Wen Shanchu's distraught look, Yan Yan took a deep breath and exhaled, but it was useless. The more he tried to calm down, the more angry he felt in his heart boiled.

"Kuan, I have already told you to have people closely guard the princess's safety. Some of them are more stubborn than me."

"Deputy General Cheng, where is your father's death?"

The Yan family soldiers around were so frightened by their general's anger that they dared not even breathe. However, a soldier took a few trembling steps forward and reported loudly: "General, Deputy General Cheng has taken people to search nearby."

Yan Yan's rough and fierce face became ferocious again because of this sentence. "They all look quite smart at ordinary times, but how come their brains are all messed up by shit at this moment!"

He looked at Wen Shanchu fiercely and said angrily, "Wen Shanchu, where are the Jingling Guards in your hands? They have special methods of investigating cases. Have you sent people to investigate?"

I don’t know which words stimulated the dazed Wen Shanchu. She used her hands and feet to crawl up from the ground and took out a golden token.

"Jingling Guards, listen up. Interrogate all the villagers in Taohua Village. Verify any suspicious ones and wait for the Empress to deal with them."

As soon as these words fell, several dark shadows flashed out from the darkness.

The villagers who were kneeling on the ground and trembling shouted that they were injustices. Two of them were shaking more violently than others.

Yan Yan's sharp eyes locked onto a woman and a man kneeling on the ground in the chaotic crowd. He took a few big steps forward, grabbed the collars of the two, pulled them out, and threw them in front of Wen Shanchu.

Wen Shanchu looked at the two people crawling in a panic with an expressionless face, and waved his hand: "Take them away and interrogate them severely."

The people who were caught were none other than Wang Le and the seriously injured Fang Qing.

Wang Le endured the pain, knelt down and shouted in the direction of Wen Shanchu in panic: "It's unfair, sir, I saw Wang Linglong last night, oh, no, the princess's."

A black shadow flashed out from nowhere and was about to knock the man unconscious when Wang Le's face turned pale and he shouted, "I saw the arsonist."

The air was stagnant for a moment. Wen Shanchu made a gesture, and the man in black stopped his movements, bowed his head to Wen Shanchu, and then disappeared.

Wen Shanchu looked at the two people kneeling on the ground with a solemn look, raised his eyes, and bowed to Yan Yan: "General, I'm in trouble."

Yan Yan's fierce expression just now became calmer, and his tone was still serious: "Something happened in Lingdu, and the empress was taken away. You have about four days at most to find out who is behind it."

Wen Shanchu responded solemnly: "Yes, General."

Yan Yan did not stay any longer. She left half of the soldiers with Wen Shanchu, and took the other half of the soldiers, carrying the two charred corpses, and escorted all the villagers of Taohua Village except Wang Le and Fang Qing away.

Wen Shanchu lowered his eyes and looked at the man who was kneeling on the ground and trembling. His gentle face was full of murderous intent: "Speak."

She didn't expect that in just one night, something would happen to Wang Linglong. The Queen would be furious if she knew, and Nanling's illusion of maintaining balance would be shattered.

When the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be buried. This statement is not just a casual remark.

Wang Le swallowed his saliva fearfully, kowtowed heavily, and said: "Ms. Wen, I and Fang Qing saw the princess at noon last night."

He never thought that Wang Linglong's identity would be so noble, she was actually the princess! This had never happened in his previous life. If he had known earlier, he would never let Rong Zian seize the opportunity.

Fang Qing was afraid that Wang Le would say something nonsense, so she quickly answered, kowtowed with her forehead on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Mrs. Wen, when Wang Le and I returned, the princess was still fine."

Now she just wants to survive, and her unruly daughter must have run away to the town to have fun again.

Wen Shanchu frowned, his tone was emotionless: "No more?"

Wang Le, with his forehead on the ground, glanced at Fang Qing with disdain and spoke first: "Last night, when I returned home, I found that my purse was left at the princess's house. When I turned back, I saw a big fire in the princess's house. When I ran closer, I found this."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of black silk from his sleeve and held it up with both hands.

It was true that he turned back, but as for the purse, even if Fang Qing wanted to expose him, he could just say that it fell at Wang Linglong's doorstep.

Anyway, Wang Linglong and Rong Zian were already dead, so he could say whatever he wanted.

If Fang Qing didn't expose it, he could use the purse incident to establish an ambiguous relationship with Wang Linglong, and maybe the empress would take better care of him out of guilt.

Wen Shanchu stared at the slender figure kneeling on the ground, his eyes moved to the black handkerchief, he reached out to pick up the handkerchief and unfolded it, when he saw the gold coin darts embroidered in the corner, his brows furrowed, and the aura around him became sinister.

Is Zhongzhou going to violate the mainland's rules?

"Ms. Wen, the person has been released."

Ji Yin's voice sounded at this time. Wen Shanchu glanced sideways and threw the handkerchief in his hand to her: "Lord Ji Yin, take a look at this first."
