The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray

"Yes, slave, go right away."

As he was speaking, King Kang came in with a letter.

Seeing him come in, Princess Kang's cloudy eyes lit up, and she looked at him suddenly, her voice choked with sobs and urgency, "Your Highness, have you found the murderer who killed Le Yang?"

His wife had always been dignified and serious, with her hair always neat and tidy. Now that she had suffered the pain of losing her grandson, she looked haggard and disheveled, which made him sad and distressed.

Ever since her son and daughter-in-law passed away, Le Yang has been her life. How can he persuade her now that he is in this state? He clenched his hand holding the letter. He would never let go of those who hurt Le Yang and would make them pay a heavy price.

Old King Kang walked over to the couch next to her and sat down, "The person who was sent out brought in the letter."

Princess Lao Kang's eyes were full of bloodshot. "It's useless. It's all useless. It's been so long and they still haven't found anything. It's useless! It's useless!"

"Come and read the letter first." When the old King Kang heard this, a trace of pain flashed across his eyes. Le Yang was his only grandchild and grew up on his lap. Her death was a heavy blow to him, but he still had the huge King Kang Mansion to support, and he had to find the murderer who killed Le Yang to avenge her. He could not slack off or retreat in the slightest.

But this is not an easy task for the elderly King Kang. He is now relying on his last breath to survive. Even if he dies, he will find the scum who dared to kill his granddaughter and cut him into pieces!

Old King Kang tore open the envelope and unfolded the letter paper.

After reading the letter, the old king had a complicated expression, confused and puzzled. Seeing him like this, the old princess frowned and asked, "What did the letter say?"

As she spoke, she took the letter paper from old King Kang's hand, and the more he looked at her, the uglier her expression became.

Today, when Zhang Hao brought people to the residence of the Minister of Revenue Liu Yuanfeng, he made quite a noise. After all, he brought a lot of people with him, and with more people, the target would naturally be bigger, so he was quickly discovered.

When the people from Prince Kang's mansion saw their posture, they knew that the place they were going to was definitely not simple, so they sent a few people to follow them, but they were afraid of alerting the enemy and did not dare to follow too closely.

Although they were not too close, they still saw that they stayed in Liu's house for quite a while. When they left, they took someone away with them. They sent someone to inquire about the identity of that person, and then they found out that the person who was taken away was called Jiang Jingshi, and he was Liu's cousin who was staying at the house as a student.

They didn't know about the rest. After investigating Jiang Jingshi's identity, the leader wrote down what he had found out that day on a piece of paper, put it in an envelope, and had someone deliver it to Prince Kang's Mansion.

"Liu family?" Princess Kang frowned, "Young Master?"

It's no wonder she was confused. Old Prince Kang also had many questions in his mind after reading it. As early as after Gu Jingzhi and Jingzhao Yin took over the Leyang case, he sent people to investigate the people around Gu Jingzhi and the people in Jingzhao Prefecture.

He knew that Zhang Hao was Gu Jingzhi's man. Now Gu Jingzhi had only one job, which was to investigate the murderer of Le Yang, so Zhang Hao's actions should be related to this.

But he didn’t think that this cousin of the Liu family had any connection with Le Yang. But since there was no connection, why did Gu Jingzhi send people to capture him?

I disagree with the old King Kang. The old King Kang's wife is a woman in the harem. She has seen and heard a lot of dirty things. She has heard a lot of stories about poor scholars. It's nothing more than relying on his own talents to hook up with young girls who are ignorant of the world.

But her granddaughter herself knew that the person in Le Yang's heart had always been Gu Jingzhi from the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and no one else would be worthy of her attention.

What's more, that man is a cousin of the Liu family, not their cousin of the Wang family. Logically speaking, Le Yang should not know him.

"Someone, go and call all the servants in the princess' room!" Princess Kang's face darkened.

After Princess Leyang died, no one knew who the murderer was. Princess Kang naturally took her anger out on the people serving in the Leyang courtyard. A healthy and living person just disappeared like that, so they should really blame them for not taking good care of her.

According to Princess Kang's opinion, they should all be beaten to death to comfort Le Yang's spirit in heaven.

However, when she was about to take action, she was stopped by the old King Kang who came hurriedly. He said that even if they were to beat her to death, they should wait until the truth came out. After all, they were the last people to see Le Yang, and they might be of use.

No matter how reluctant Princess Kang was, she was persuaded by King Kang. He was right and she couldn't vent her anger. So she locked the man in a yard and sent him some food every day. She didn't need to worry about how delicious it was, but it was enough to fill her stomach.

Soon, the person sent to look for someone called the five people who had previously served in Princess Leyang's room. Among them, Chuntao, Xiaqing, Qiulu, and Dongshuang were the first-class maids beside Leyang, and Nanny Jin was Princess Leyang's wet nurse. They were all people who had served Leyang since childhood.

Although the Kang Palace has no real power in the court, it is precisely because of this that the Kang Palace is favored by His Majesty and has been rewarded continuously. As the only heir of the Kang Palace, Le Yang has always enjoyed the best.

The first-class maids and wet nurses who served her personally were better fed and clothed than ordinary girls, and she always held her head high when she went out.

But now, their clothes are torn and dirty, their hair is messy, and they stand there trembling like frightened quails, with their heads lowered and not daring to raise them. It is obvious that they have suffered a lot in the past few days.

At first, because they were the servants in Princess Leyang's room and had face in front of the master, others naturally flattered and respected them. But since they were imprisoned, because they were the personal servants of Princess Leyang, others naturally blamed them for everything. After all, they were the ones who served the princess personally.

Therefore, they had a very hard time these days and were often beaten, scolded and bullied.

The nanny helped the neatly dressed and tidy old Princess Kang out. The maid brought an armchair and placed it in the corridor. Old Prince Kang sat down before her, and the old Princess Kang sat beside him.

After sitting down, Princess Kang swept her eyes over the five people fiercely. The five people in the middle of the yard felt her gaze sweeping over them, and they shuddered subconsciously, not daring to look up.

Princess Kang gave the nanny beside her a look.

Mammy nodded, "Everyone else please go down first."

After the nanny finished speaking, all the servants and maids in the yard retreated. For a moment, the only people left in the yard were Princess Kang, Prince Kang, the nanny, the guards behind Prince Kang, and the five people standing in the middle of the yard.

"Tell me, do you know the cousin of the Minister of Revenue?" asked old King Kang with a serious face.

The five people standing in the yard knew that this question was directed at them, but no one dared to be the first to speak out. They all stood there with their heads lowered, trembling.

"Madam Jin, you come first."

Seeing that no one spoke, King Kang called out the name directly.
