Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp
Chapter 867 House Search
Zi'er also informed Zhan Yan of the accident that happened in Zhan Yihou's mansion, and he arrived soon.
He led people to thoroughly investigate the cause of the pavilion's collapse. Since Cheng Lingzhi did not leave any traces, he could not find any clues for a while.
Cheng Lingzhi was extremely proud. Although she didn't crush Lin Yiwan's children to death, she still had a chance.
At this time, the lights in the guest room were on, and Lin Yiwan and old doctor Lin were doing their best to treat Zhan Qingning's injuries.
Her injuries were so severe that her internal organs were displaced.
If she hadn't taken the heart-protecting pills in advance, she would have died.
Lin Yiwan was filled with resentment. She blamed herself for letting the children run to the pavilion and exposing them all to danger.
If anything happens to Zhan Qingning, not only her, but also Xiao Miaomiao will not be able to bear it.
She kept crying and no one could calm her down.
Even though she was hungry and sleepy, she didn't want to leave Zhan Qingning's side and had to hold her hand.
Fortunately, when it was almost dawn, Zhan Qingning's injuries finally stabilized.
She stopped vomiting blood and her complexion improved significantly.
Lin Yiwan was in high spirits and thoroughly investigated the cause of the pavilion's collapse. She thought carefully about all the people she had met since she entered the mansion.
She suddenly remembered that Cheng Lingzhi appeared later!
So where was she and Chu Xiuxiu when they had the argument? What was she doing?
She quickly called the steward of the Marquis' Mansion and carefully questioned him about Cheng Lingzhi's whereabouts.
The steward of the Marquis' Mansion shook his head and said, "I can't remember. I led everyone to protect the medicine garden and Miss Xiaoruan, and didn't notice where Miss Cheng was hiding!"
Lin Yiwan felt that her hiding was a little unusual, so she quickly pulled Zhan Yan to walk around the collapsed pavilion.
Zhan Yan introduced: "When this pavilion was built, very strong wood was used. It shouldn't collapse so easily!"
Of course Lin Yiwan also understood that this was definitely not an accident!
But the evidence is hard to find!
She couldn't figure out how to make the pavilion collapse quickly without wasting any effort.
After all, she and the children came to the Marquis' Mansion on a whim, and she had no time to prepare.
From the time she entered the Marquis' Mansion to the time she had an argument with Chu Xiuxiu, it all took only a cup of tea.
How could such a sturdy pavilion collapse in an instant in such a short gap?
This is too unbelievable!
Lin Yiwan paced back and forth, and even though her ankles were a little sore, she still didn't stop.
Zhan Yan felt incredibly distressed. He spoke worriedly, "Wanwan, you should treat Qingning's injuries first. She's already exhausted, so why don't you go to the main courtyard and rest for a while? I'll ask the kitchen to make you some meat porridge to help you feel better!"
Lin Yiwan said sadly, "Ah Yan, I can't eat any porridge right now. When I think about how the children were almost crushed to death, my heart feels like it's being cut by a knife. I hate the person who secretly plotted their murder. I must find him!"
Lin Yiwan didn't know what she stepped on, but there was a sudden crisp sound under her feet.
Her expression suddenly changed, and she quickly looked down, only to discover that there were neat cut marks on the broken wood!
Lin Yiwan quickly said, "Ah Yan, take a look at this piece of wood!"
Zhan Yan looked closely for a moment before he said in a deep voice, "Someone deliberately cut the supporting wood, causing the pavilion to collapse. That person knows how to build a house. After all, the supporting wood of our pavilion was hidden to prevent anyone from doing anything bad. How could she find it?"
Lin Yiwan's eyes flashed coldly, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Let's quickly find Cheng Lingzhi's room. If we're too late, I'm afraid all the evidence will be destroyed!"
The two men went straight to the courtyard where Cheng Lingzhi lived, and kicked the door open regardless of the maid's attempts to stop them.
Cheng Lingzhi was terrified. She asked in a trembling voice, "What are you going to do? Why are you searching my room?"
Lin Yiwan said coldly: "Just because I'm the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion!"
Cheng Lingzhi bit her lip hard and dared not speak any more. She could only stand at the door and wait in disappointment.
At this time, Chu Xiuxiu also heard the noise. She hurried over with her maid and nanny. She said anxiously, "Lord Marquis, Madam Marquis, please don't wrongly accuse Lingzhi!"
Zhan Yan looked at her indifferently: "If she has been wronged, I will give her an explanation. But as long as it's not you and her, I will not let her go!"
Chu Xiuxiu was so frightened that she shuddered all over and didn't dare to stop him.
It was not until this moment that she realized how terrifying the current God of War was.
His eyes were like a sharp blade.
She was inexplicably scratched and felt pain all over her body!
She felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have obeyed the Queen's order and married into the Marquis's Mansion.
She thought that Zhan Yihou would be easy to control.
She thought that with the Queen's support, the Zhan Yihou Mansion would fall into her control.
However, it is just a fantasy after all.
She lowered her eyes tremblingly and stood in the corner in fear.
Soon someone found the blueprints from Cheng Lingzhi's room. The handwriting was still fresh, and it must have been drawn recently.
After looking at it, Zhan Yan threw it in front of Cheng Lingzhi: "You still dare to quibble? Don't tell me that this painting is not of the pavilion in the garden!"
Cheng Lingzhi pursed her lips tightly, her eyes filled with anger and unwillingness.
After a moment's silence, she gritted her teeth and demanded, "Marquis Zhan Yi, what's wrong with me? You're so concerned about the daughter of a death row inmate, even adopting her as your adopted daughter. Why can't you give me a chance to live? I came all the way from Jiangnan to the capital. Do you know how hard it was for me?"
Zhan Yan's cold eyes fell on her, and he asked word by word: "Did you do this?"
Cheng Lingzhi swallowed hard and was silent for a moment before speaking with difficulty, "Yes, I did it. I've loved building houses since I was a child, so I know the structure of the pavilion very well. I found the supports precisely and secretly sawed out the cracks. When the time comes, the slightest touch will cause it to collapse!"
Zhan Yan kicked her to the ground. She rolled several times before finally stopping.
Blood was flowing from her mouth and she felt that she was probably not going to survive.
She sneered, "Marquis Zhan Yi, the Zhan family is courting its own destruction. You treat the Queen with such disregard, you will not have a good ending sooner or later. I, Cheng Lingzhi, am not afraid of death, because I know that day will come for you all!"
Zhan Yanmo ordered calmly, "Come here, drag her to the Queen's Weiyang Palace, announce her crimes in front of her, and beat her to death!"
"Yes!" Shadow Soul quickly took the order and left.
When Cheng Lingzhi was dragged into the Weiyang Palace, it caused a big commotion.
Many royal guards followed nearby, but did not stop them.
Because Yinghun was holding the token that the emperor had previously given to Lin Yiwan, and Zhan Yan was following behind him.
