Shi Wanwan looked at the scene and found that the killer had no distinctive features on his body, and the weapon he used was the simplest one without any markings.

Even if Jingzhao Prefecture investigated, they would find no results.

Since that’s the case, it’s better to throw the dirty water on Lu Xingzhi. This will not only paralyze the real murderer, but also disgust Lu Xingzhi, killing two birds with one stone.

Lu Xingzhi immediately defended himself: "I didn't! I never thought about breaking off the engagement, I was just trying to scare her!"

Shi Wanwan looked at him and said, "A man who can publicly humiliate his fiancée for another woman, is there anything you can't do?"

"Not to mention, you've already said you want to cancel the engagement at least ten times in front of me."

"If you didn't have this thought in your mind, how could you have said it so many times?"

Xie Xuanzhi, who was always looking for trouble, said: "That's right, I also heard Master Lu say that he wanted to cancel the engagement."

"Marriage is a serious matter, and it's no joke. If you don't like him, just cancel the engagement. I respect him for daring to love and hate."

"But if you don't dare to take responsibility, bully others, and even try to take their money, then that's the behavior of a complete villain."

Shi Wanwan glanced at him. His face was indifferent, and he exuded the aloofness of a superior.

She had met Xie Xuanzhi many times. Except for the first time she met him, when his aura was overwhelming, he looked quite gentle at other times.

But today, ever since he entered Jingzhao Prefecture, his aura has changed.

He was no longer the gentle young man of aristocratic family, but the only king of a different surname in this dynasty, Xie Xuanzhi, the god of war, Xie Xuanzhi, the Xie Xuanzhi whom no one dared to look down upon.

Qin Feihe's heart trembled, and he immediately looked at Lu Xingzhi with a cold face.

Seeing Qin Feihe looking over, Lu Xingzhi said anxiously, "Sir, Shi Wanwan has a bad character. I am indeed somewhat dissatisfied with her."

"But this time her assassination had nothing to do with me. Please understand!"

Qin Feihe thought for a moment and said, "You do have a motive for the assassination of the princess, and the timing of your appearance is too coincidental."

"This matter has not yet been fully investigated. Mr. Lu, please stay in Jingzhao Prefecture and cooperate with the investigation."

Lu Xingzhi was anxious: "Master Qin, I'm really not the murderer!"

"Shi Wanwan has fallen in love with someone else and wants to kill me!"

Shi Wanwan was shocked. "I've fallen in love with someone else? How come I didn't know it?"

Lu Xingzhi's gaze fell on Xie Xuanzhi. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very clear.

Shi Wanwan was even more shocked: "You don't think I like the prince just because he saved me today, do you?"

"Isn't it?" Lu Xingzhi said angrily: "When I went over there, you were wearing the prince's cloak, with your head pressed against his chest, extremely intimate!"

Qin Feihe was also shocked. He really just wanted to finish the case as soon as possible and then get rid of these plague gods.

He didn't expect that the case would become a sex scandal at this point in the trial, and he heard a lot of gossip.

Shi Wanwan's eyes turned red: "You are dissatisfied with this marriage and have been entangled with Jiang Rongrong from the beginning."

"Your Highness saved me today. Seeing that my clothes were torn, he lent me his cloak out of kindness. I didn't expect it to become like this in your eyes!"

She likes Xie Xuanzhi?

Haha! What a joke!

She thought there was something wrong with Lu Xingzhi's eyes, and she would poison him to blindness next time!

Xie Xuanzhi said calmly, "Mr. Lu's heart is blind, and his eyes are even blinder."

Qin Feihe coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Lu's words suggest that you have a stronger motive to assassinate the princess and the prince."

"Until the case is fully investigated, Master Lu cannot leave Jingzhao Prefecture."

Lu Xingzhi was anxious: "But the results will be announced tomorrow, I want to go and see them!"

What he said was a bit childish.

Xie Xuanzhi said calmly, "I can go to the palace and give His Majesty a suggestion to disqualify those candidates with poor character from admission."

Lu Xingzhi's face turned pale in an instant, and he hurriedly said, "That's not what I meant!"

Xie Xuanzhi said with a half-smile, "No matter whether Jingzhao Prefecture eventually finds out whether you are the murderer or not, you deserve to be punished for slandering the relationship between the prince and the princess today."

"When I meet Scholar Lu, I will ask him how he raised his son."

In an instant, Lu Xingzhi's face lost all color and his head was buzzing.

Because what Xie Xuanzhi said could, to some extent, ruin his future!

Lu Xingzhi has looked down on Shi Wanwan over the years, but has been unwilling to give her up. The reason is that she is a legitimate princess.

Both her status and her financial resources will be of great help to his future.

He enjoyed the benefits she brought him with peace of mind, but he suppressed her, bullied her, and humiliated her everywhere!

Xie Xuanzhi turned to Qin Feihe and said, "I will wait for news from Master Qin."

Qin Feihe hurriedly bowed in return, "I will definitely find the real culprit as soon as possible."

Xie Xuanzhi nodded slightly, put one hand behind his back and left gracefully.

When Shi Wanwan saw him like this, she felt a little envious. He was indeed the most untouchable man in the entire capital.

There is nothing for her to do here for the time being, so she can leave.

When she stood up, Lu Xingzhi grabbed her and said, "Shi Wanwan, what good will it do you to hurt me like this?"

Shi Wanwan pulled his fingers apart one by one and said slowly, "Mr. Lu, I'm just discussing the matter at hand. I have no intention of harming you."

"As for our engagement, I now have a completely new idea."

"You can hire someone to kill me, and I can use the law to destroy your entire clan."

"After all, insulting a princess from the royal family is a serious crime."

After she said that, she left without looking back, leaving Lu Xingzhi in despair.

When Shi Wanwan arrived at the gate of Jingzhao Prefecture, she saw the Jingzhao Prefecture's carriage.

However, the person driving today was not the familiar Ji Bei, but another guard named Ji Nan.

Xie Xuanzhi lifted the curtain and asked, "Do you need me to escort the princess back home?"

Shi Wanwan knew that his carriage was parked here waiting for her to come out.

She walked to the carriage and said, "Today, my fiancé suspected that I had an affair with the prince. To avoid suspicion, I had no choice but to reject the prince's kindness."

Xie Xuanzhi stared at her intently with his dark phoenix eyes and said, "Then, Princess, are you interested in confirming your speculation about your fiancé?"

Shi Wanwan: “…”

She widened her eyes and said, "Your Highness, this joke is not funny at all. Please stop!"

Xie Xuanzhi said calmly, "Others may not know how my health is, but the princess knows it very well."

"In a year at most, this king will die."

Shi Wanwan's eyes flickered slightly, and Xie Xuanzhi continued, "I am the only male in Prince Chong's mansion now."

"My sister and I are not on good terms. She married far away in Jiangnan and we have cut off all contact."

"If I die, my mother will be the only one left in the mansion."

"The princess also saw my mother's condition last time. If I were gone, I don't know how the servants in the mansion would bully her."
