What do you mean?

What do you mean Minister Shen’s daughter is not dead?

Didn’t Minister Shen’s daughter Shen Chu drown half a year ago?

Liu Taiming's expression turned grim. He frowned and looked at the empty space in front of him. His voice lowered even more. "Just talk about my daughter's affairs. Why are you suddenly bringing up Minister Shen?"

Minister Shen is an important official in the court, and he doesn't want to offend him easily.

As for whether Minister Shen's daughter was dead or alive, he didn't care at all.

Whether dead or alive, it has nothing to do with him.

What does this person want to do by suddenly mentioning the other person?

Liu Taiming's cloudy eyes rolled around in his sockets. For a moment, he was not sure of the other party's purpose. If he just wanted to tell him a clue, he could just say it directly. There was no need to be so slow.

I’m afraid the other party is not here to give me any clues.

"Why are you bringing up Minister Shen's daughter? Of course, it's because she's closely related to your daughter's death."

what?

Her daughter's death is related to Minister Shen's daughter?

What does this have to do with that?

According to this person, Shen Chu not only did not die, but also killed his daughter.

How can it be?

"How did you learn about this?"

Liu Taimin did not believe the other party's words, but searched the room for the possible source of the sound.

Outside the roof window or underground?

he does not know.

But he cares.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

The man hiding in the shadows was very dissatisfied with Liu Taiming's reaction. His expression turned cold and his voice lowered. "Your daughter's death was related to him, and you don't care at all?"

He repeated this sentence again, hoping to get the reaction he wanted from Liu Taimin.

But it didn't.

His repeated repetition did not make Liu Taiming feel anxious, but instead calmed him down.

"Are you planning to use me to harm Minister Shen?"

As an official appointed by the imperial court, how could he afford to offend the Minister of Revenue Shen Zhong?

If the other party wants to deal with him, he can easily step down.

Liu Taiming wanted to find the murderer of his daughter, not a way to ruin his career.

There's nothing wrong with his brain, so why would he want to provoke Shen Zhong for no reason?

Moreover, this person fabricated facts without any evidence and wanted to harm him.

If he believed it, he would be a big idiot.

Liu Taiming's question made the man hiding in the dark look even uglier. He wished he could stand up and put his sword on Liu Taiming and ask him harshly, "Are you fucking sick?"

He was so indifferent to his own daughter's death. If someone else had heard about this, wouldn't they have immediately gone to the Shangshu Mansion to ask for an explanation? Why was he still stubborn with me?

He felt that his temper was a bit too violent, so he tried to suppress his inner anger and continued, "I'm telling you the correct direction to look for clues."

"Do you know where your daughter's body was found?"

The man in the dark asked Liu Taiming with gritted teeth.

Liu Taiming knew a little about this matter, so he nodded and said, "I know it was found in the tomb."

He said this calmly, leaving the man who pressed the wrong button speechless.

what?

You know all this, so why don't you care at all?

"Not only do I know where my daughter's body was found, I also know where she was removed from her coffin."

Although he was not particularly attentive in the investigation during these ten days, he still understood some of the situation.

For example, he knew exactly where his daughter's accident happened and where she was dug out.

He knew about the tombs in Lingyin Mountain.

The man's expression was distorted. He lowered his voice and continued, "Then do you know whose grave that is? It's the grave of Minister Shen's daughter!"

Its voice was a little distorted at the end, and it seemed that it wanted to stand up and hold Liu Taiming's shoulders and shout the words into his ears.

This question really stumped Liu Taiming.

Because he really didn't know. He only knew that it was dug out from a tomb in Lingyin Mountain, but he really didn't know which tomb it was.

Why did it appear in the tomb of Minister Shen’s daughter?

He tightened his hands at his sides, his fingertips slightly curled together.

After a moment, he asked, "Doesn't this just prove that Minister Shen's daughter was framed?"

Who would hide a body in their own home after committing a crime?

Only a fool would do this, right?

"I've told you so much, but you didn't listen to a word I said. I told you it was Shen Chu who did it. Shen Chu did it. Where are your ears?"

A crack suddenly appeared in the originally intact roof, followed by the sound of breaking bricks and tiles, and then a person suddenly appeared in front of Liu Taiming.

The man was dressed in black, even his face was covered with a black veil. The exposed eyes were extremely fierce. A snow-white, cold sword was placed on his neck. He suddenly asked, "I have said so much, do you understand?"

He came here just to make Liu Taiming and Shen Chu fall out, and wanted Liu Taiming to take the initiative to report Shen Zhong.

But now it seems that the effect is not good.

Not only was it bad, it also made him mad.

"I, I understand..."

As a civil servant, Liu Taiming knew nothing about martial arts. Facing the cold sword, he could only try his best to stand straight and away from the blade.

Hearing his words, the man smiled with satisfaction.

"Then remember, Shen Chu will be returning to the capital soon. You must file a report to the emperor to accuse Shen Zhong."

After hearing these words, Liu Taiming finally understood the other party's purpose.

This is to bring this matter to His Majesty!

How can this be!

If this matter is brought to the attention of His Majesty, and if it is not properly resolved, his life may very well be over.

After all, if you offend a powerful official, your life will be over.

He felt that he was not too old and did not want his life to end so quickly.

"Okay, okay, okay..."

He spoke tremblingly and agreed to this matter.

As for whether to do it or not, that is his own business.

Now with the sword across his neck, he had no choice but to agree.

By then he will definitely ask many people to protect him.

As for Minister Shen...

He should have to go.

No matter what, for the sake of his relationship with Minister Shen, he had to go.

If the other party saw that he did not take any action and directly reported the matter to Minister Shen, he would be finished.

He didn't want to offend the court officials at all.

He really didn't think that his daughter was killed by the other party.

Seeing that he had agreed honestly, the man put away his sword with satisfaction and gave him a cold look, "You'd better."

Leaving these words behind, he walked away.

Liu Taiming rushed directly to the Shangshu Mansion.
