After escaping with her bestie, she became the white moonlight of the crazy prince

The middle-aged man who kept saying that he was looking for his sister who had been missing for half a year took a look at the coffin and was so scared that he took a step back.

The expression on his face was one of horror.

It wasn't like he saw his long-dead sister, but rather like he was at a loss seeing two corpses that suddenly appeared.

If so, who was responsible for the body?

"Are these your two missing sisters?"

Hearing Xie Ming's mocking words, the middle-aged man didn't dare to look up at him. He could only kneel on the ground and explain repeatedly, "This...this is not my sister. I don't know who these two people are..."

"So you keep talking about opening the coffin to find out what's inside, are you teasing my brother?"

Xie Ming stared at him, his thin eyelids tense, his eyes devoid of any emotion, as if he would say something chilling the next moment.

Shen Chu was watching from the side and pulled Xu San over to him. "When you were shoveling just now, did you feel that the soil was a little too loose?"

This question was directed at Xu San, but as soon as the words came out, they attracted everyone's attention.

Hearing Shen Chu ask this, Fu Jinnian suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly took two steps forward. He naturally took Shen Chu's wrist and pulled her to walk somewhere, but after just two steps, Shen Chu stopped moving.

He saw Shen Chu standing there, a little confused, "Go, why don't you go?"

Shen Chu turned sideways, wanting to ask, "Doesn't she want to leave?"

It's her who can't leave.

After Shen Chu turned slightly, Fu Jinnian saw the scene behind Shen Chu——

Shen Chu's other hand was tightly grasped by a bony hand. The owner of this hand was staring at him with murderous eyes.

"Where do you want to take her?"

Fu Jinnian has been here for so long and has rarely come into contact with anyone other than the people on Taiyin Mountain. Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling, whom he just met in the past two days, can be regarded as the only two new friends he has made here.

Because he seldom came into contact with people of this era, Fu Jinnian did not have a strong fear of the dignitaries in this world. Even the current emperor who sat in a high position above thousands of people did not have any sense of reality. He just felt that the other party was too far away from him and there was no need to worry about it.

Until now, the moment his eyes met Xie Ming's, he truly felt fear.

Because he felt that Xie Ming really wanted to kill him.

Almost subconsciously, Fu Jinnian let go of Shen Chu's hand.

The sound was like the buzzing of a mosquito. "Um... Your Highness, I just found something strange and want to take her to see it..."

He didn't know how to address Xie Ming, so he could only follow Shen Chu and call him His Highness.

If Shen Chu hadn't suddenly asked Xu San if he felt the soil was too loose when he was digging the grave, he might not have thought of this for a while.

Because the Jiang family and the Shen family had a grudge against each other, and both of them coveted a piece of precious land but were reluctant to give it up, they could only take a step back and let the graves of their rival family's children be placed next to their own daughter's grave.

However, they tacitly arranged a stone wall between the two tombs.

The strange thing that Fu Jinnian mentioned was seen at the foot of this stone wall.

Pulling Shen Chu in front of him, Xie Ming looked at him coldly and said, "Take me to see it."

Shen Chu, whose wrist was grabbed by him, heard this: "..."

What are you doing?

What's with all that possessiveness?

Although Xie Ming said he would take him there, Shen Chu still followed him to see the so-called strange things.

The stone wall was built with new stones, and there were traces of moss at the base of the wall, which was caused by the rainy days in the past six months.

The moss was originally a large and intact patch, but now there were several gaps on it because the stones used to build the wall were broken open by sharp tools.

Where the moss was missing, there were deep depressions that were definitely not formed naturally.

"You didn't accidentally chisel this, did you?"

Shen Chu glanced at the dent on the stone and asked Fu Jinnian casually.

Hearing this, Fu Jinnian laughed dryly. "When I started, I found that the soil was very loose. It didn't take much strength to overturn it. Why would I need so much strength?"

"Also, look here."

He changed the subject and pointed somewhere.

Following the direction Fu Jinnian pointed, Shen Chu saw a pile of bones.

It's not human bones. Judging from the size, they should be chicken bones, and they should be the bones of a whole chicken.

Because there are quite a lot of bones, to have so many, you need at least a whole chicken.

"Your Highness, those people dug up my grave, it's not enough, they also ate chicken on top of it. This is intolerable, you must make the decision for me!"

Shen Chu spoke without thinking and kicked the chicken bones on the ground.

This kick caused her to kick out a piece of oil paper that was pressed under the chicken bones.

It should be the paper that the store used to wrap the cooked chicken when it was bought. Shen Chu didn't care about it at first, but when he saw something, his eyes suddenly fixed.

There seems to be words on that piece of paper?

After discovering this, Shen Chu subconsciously bent down to pick up the oil paper, but she was stopped by Xie Ming just as she bent down.

He reached out and supported Shen Chu's forehead to help him up, and gave a look to his men behind him.

The plainclothes guard hurried forward to pick up the oil paper from the ground. He took a closer look and saw the words "Ming Yue Restaurant" on it before reporting, "Your Highness, this must be one of the signature dishes of Ming Yue Restaurant in the capital, the lotus leaf chicken."

Mingyue Restaurant is very famous in the capital, and many officials and their families patronize it because the restaurant’s wine is fragrant and its signature dishes are extremely delicious.

"Ah, the lotus leaf chicken from Mingyue Restaurant? No wonder they eat it so cleanly, it's really delicious. Isn't that chicken very expensive? I guess those who come here to dig graves shouldn't be poor either."

Shen Chu had been to this restaurant many times and was familiar with the waiters there.

"Put it away, it might be useful later."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Xie Ming has always been cautious in his actions, so Shen Chu was not surprised at all by his behavior.

These were the so-called special discoveries. After seeing them, everyone walked back to the coffin.

Thinking back to the degree of weathering of the chicken bones just now, these chicken bones should have appeared here in the past two days, which can also be seen from the degree of decay of the person in the coffin.

However, Shen Chu's major had nothing to do with law, and his judgment was entirely based on the criminal investigation dramas he had watched. How long these two women had been dead would only be known after the coroner performed an autopsy.

But before that...

"Third Prince, it seems your good intentions have ultimately been wasted. This is not his sister. In that case, Third Prince, you can apologize to the two of us."

Shen Chu looked at Xie Xuan with a fake smile on his face.

It seems that Xie Xuan himself did not expect that while the mantis stalks the cicada, there is another oriole behind it?

After hearing Shen Chu's words, Xie Xuan's face turned a little ugly.

Everything had clearly been prepared in advance, so who on earth tampered with this?

Where did the dry bones he prepared go?

His fists were clenched so tightly that they turned white. Xie Xuan gritted his teeth several times before finally speaking, "I misunderstood Miss Shen and Miss Jiang. I apologize to you both here. I hope you don't mind."

After he finished speaking, he smiled again and said, "For these two corpses, I'll trouble you to find their families. Xie Mou has something else to attend to, so I'll leave first."

He bowed slightly, then immediately turned around and waved his hand in the air, signaling his men to follow.

It looks like he is going down the mountain.

As he was about to leave, Xie Ming spoke up, "I hope my royal brother won't make anything public about what happened today. I will definitely come to your house to express my gratitude in the future."
