Sheng Qingqian reacted first: "What's going on? Why does the Seventh Prince need to cooperate with the investigation?"
"Prince Yi secretly hoarded various weapons and plotted rebellion. What does this have to do with my Seventh Prince?"
Sheng Nanzhi showed an expression that said, "As expected."
Sheng Qingqian and Wen Tingyun came because of this matter.
No wonder the news of the fire in Prince Yi’s Mansion spread throughout the entire imperial city, but these two people didn’t come to watch the fun.
"How did Third Sister know that Prince Yi's mansion was found to have hidden many weapons and the imperial seal yesterday? And how did she know that Prince Yi was planning a rebellion?"
"This matter should only be known to the few Royal Guards present yesterday, Commander Lin, His Majesty, and me."
"The Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince's Consort are well-informed."
"However, I'm guessing that the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Prince's Consort didn't hear it from anyone present yesterday, right? After all, if you got the news from someone present yesterday, you wouldn't have said that my prince was planning a rebellion and hoarding weapons, right?"
Sheng Nanzhi's words were indeed full of mystery. Wen Tingyun and Sheng Qingqian were both confused, but Commander Lin understood.
If any of them leaked the news, Wen Tingyun and Sheng Qingqian would definitely know that Sheng Nanzhi found the loophole on the spot and cleared Shi Huaizhi's grievances.
If Sheng Qingqian didn't get the information from one of them, how did she know about this?
There is only one possibility, that these two people knew this would happen from the beginning.
Who would know that Prince Yi's Mansion was secretly storing weapons when those things had not yet been found or dug out?
Of course, it’s the person behind this incident!
Commander Lin was almost suspected by His Majesty because of this incident yesterday. Suddenly, the look in his eyes when he looked at Sheng Qingqian and Wen Tingyun became more stern.
"What I want to ask the Seventh Prince is about the discovery of weapons in Prince Yi's mansion yesterday."
"Since the Seventh Prince's Consort mentioned it, that's perfect. Why don't you come with us? I think she seems to know something about this."
Wen Tingyun immediately came back to his senses. Judging from the reactions of Sheng Nanzhi and Commander Lin, something seemed to have gone wrong.
But how could an accident happen? Clearly...
He had clearly arranged everything.
But now, the situation he wanted to see did not appear, and even Commander Lin seemed to doubt him?
His eyes were filled with gloom. He gritted his teeth secretly and glanced at Sheng Qingqian. How come this woman couldn't hide anything at all?
It's all her fault. She can't stand it any longer.
Sheng Qingqian had already noticed something from the reactions of the three people, and cold sweat couldn't help but seep out of her forehead.
"What inside story can I know?"
"My elder sister and I were born of the same mother. I just cared about her, so I tried to find out some information about Prince Yi's Mansion."
"It was revealed by someone from Prince Yi's Mansion."
"Perhaps they only saw the Imperial Guards dig something out and didn't know what it was. Then they saw the Imperial Guards commander invite my father over, and they heard that my father didn't look too good at the time, so they made some guesses."
"I just heard the news and was worried about my elder sister, so I hurried over to check on the situation."
"But when I saw that Big Sister and Prince Yi were both fine, I realized that the information I received must be wrong, so I didn't mention it to Big Sister."
"Who knew that this commander would come rushing over and immediately say he wanted to investigate my Seventh Prince? I was anxious and said the wrong thing."
Sheng Nanzhi sneered, "Third sister, why are you so full of lies? You said you cared about me? But it's been so many days since the fire at Prince Yi's mansion, why haven't you come to visit me once? Is this what you call caring?"
"I guess the reason you didn't come to Prince Yi's mansion as soon as you knew the fire was going on was because you knew what was going to happen next. You were afraid that if you came to Prince Yi's mansion before the things were found, if something went wrong, you would be suspected and implicated."
"So you can only control your temper and wait until you hear that the Imperial Guards have found something in Prince Yi's mansion before you dare to come and check on the situation, right?"
"You are the real mastermind behind this, right?"
Wen Tingyun's expression suddenly turned cold: "Princess Yi, you have to provide evidence when you speak."
Sheng Nanzhi laughed: "Why should I talk about evidence? I'm not investigating the case."
"I just need to raise my reasonable suspicions. As for the evidence, someone will naturally investigate."
"Commander Lin, isn't he going to take you to cooperate with the investigation?"
Wen Tingyun's expression grew increasingly grim. He turned to look at Commander Lin in disbelief, "Just because of a few random, unfounded speculations she made, you're investigating me?"
Before Commander Lin could speak, Sheng Nanzhi laughed out loud: "The Seventh Prince has misunderstood."
"Seventh Prince, have you forgotten? Commander Lin was originally going to come to you, Seventh Prince."
"Seventh Prince probably doesn't know that Commander Lin did find some things from our Prince Yi's Mansion yesterday, but he also found some clues. These clues just happen to be related to you, Seventh Prince."
"The doubts I expressed just now were not groundless."
"But I won't tell you, Seventh Prince, what we discovered."
Wen Tingyun couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
What goes on inside those things?
Is it related to him?
What could it be?
He looked at Sheng Nanzhi intently, but found that Sheng Nanzhi only had an expression of watching a good show, but seemed to really not intend to continue talking. He couldn't help but grit his teeth. This bitch, why does she only speak half of her words?
Could it be that there really are some flaws in those things?
"Seventh Prince, Seventh Prince's Consort, let's go."
"Don't worry, I'm just cooperating with the investigation. If they find out that this matter has nothing to do with you, then naturally nothing will happen."
But what if it has something to do with him?
Although it was Commander Lin who was speaking just now, Sheng Nanzhi had been looking at them, and the ridicule in his eyes was impossible for him to ignore.
He couldn't help but wonder what exactly Sheng Nanzhi was talking about that was related to him?
Is there really a flaw?
How much do they actually know?
He couldn't help but clench his hands tightly in his sleeves. No matter what, although Sheng Nanzhi's words were convincing, the evidence should not be so indicative. If it was really confirmed to be him, Commander Lin should have come directly to his house to arrest him yesterday.
No matter what, as long as he insisted that he knew nothing and that everything had nothing to do with him, Sheng Nanzhi would have no way to deal with him.
Wen Tingyun had just made up his mind when Sheng Qingqian, standing beside him, refused to give in. "Why? You don't have any evidence, so why are you taking us away and asking us to cooperate with the investigation?"
"We are the Seventh Prince and his Consort!"
"I'm also pregnant with the Seventh Prince's child. If anything happens to me or the child, will you be able to take responsibility?"
