One Hundred Thousand Reasons For Krypton Gold

"I don't know who killed the prince, but he must be a high-ranking and powerful person, not an ordinary person."

Tan Qi thought that he would never hear new news about the prince's case again, but he didn't expect that Ling Qiong would ask him today.

and……

"She disappeared back then." Tan Qi looked at the shivering woman standing not far away, "At that time, they said that she saw Yanran kill the prince and ran away because she was afraid of losing her life. People have lost their mouths..."

Who knew she was not dead.

"What might she know?" Tan Qidao.

Ling Qiong looked over, beckoned someone over and asked, "Why did your young lady go to see the crown prince at that time?"

The woman pinched the back of her hand, which was full of fingernail marks, and some were already bleeding.

"No...not." The woman shook her head.

"Not what?"

"...No...not to meet the prince."

"Who are you seeing?"

The woman raised her head slightly and looked at Tan Qi.

Tan Qi stood up suddenly: "Impossible, I have never made an appointment with Yanran to meet there."

-

Back then, Xiang Yanran went to that inn because she received a letter from Tan Qi asking her to meet there.

The two came and went secretly, and they made an appointment to meet in the suburbs, Xiang Yanran didn't think much about it.

She took the maid to the appointment.

The servant girl avoided suspicion and left the room. She wanted to go downstairs and wait, but somehow she ate something and started to have a stomachache.

The servant girl was so stretched that she was about to collapse, and when she felt better, she went upstairs to find Yanran.

When they got to the door, they found the door was open, and Xiang Yanran was lying on the ground in disheveled clothes, holding a bloody dagger in his hand.

And the prince fell not far away, with a small pool of blood under his body.

The servant girl was so frightened that she was dazed. She wanted to go in and have a look at Xiang Yanran, but she heard someone talking inside, it was the voice of a strange man she had never heard before.

They knew that Xiang Yanran had a maid with her, they were looking for her, and they said they wanted to kill her.

The survival instinct made the servant girl immediately decide to run away.

She jumped out of the window at the end of the corridor. It may have been lucky that there was a convoy parked outside the inn. They were probably shopping in the inn and did not intend to stay.

The servant girl found that there was no one in the carriage behind the convoy, so she took the opportunity to sneak up and followed the convoy.

After that, she fled all the way. She went back to her hometown first, but felt unsafe before entering the house, so she ran away in a hurry.

Later I heard that Xiang Yanran was the murderer who killed the prince.

I dare not stay in one place all these years.

clatter——

Tan Qi got up suddenly, turned over the table and chairs, rushed to the woman excitedly and asked: "Then do you know who killed the prince? Who killed him?"

"I don't know...I don't know." The woman was startled and shook her head again and again.

At that time, she heard that the people inside wanted to find her and kill her to avoid future troubles, so she dared to think of other things.

All she knew was that the other party was a man, there should be two of them, and she didn't even see what they looked like.

"Why did you run away? Don't testify for Yanran? If you testify, Yanran might not die." Tan Qi gradually lost control of his emotions as he grabbed the woman's skirt.

"They will kill me..." The woman was strangled by the collar and tried to break away from Tan Qi, but unfortunately her strength was too weak to break away at all, "I don't want to die...I don't want to die..."

"Master Tan." Ye Manxi pressed Tan Qi's shoulder, "let go."

Tan Qi's shoulders sank, and his hands suddenly lost strength. The woman took the opportunity to take a few steps back, coughing while covering her neck.

Tan Qi was pushed aside, Ling Qiong stepped forward to comfort the woman, and asked softly: "Did you see at that time, did the prince die?"

"I don't know..." The woman backed away in horror, her face pale.

"Then do you still remember where the prince's injuries are? How many injuries are there?"

The woman gasped for breath and pointed to the position of her abdomen.

She didn't know the injuries, but the blood came from the abdomen, and there was no blood in other places.

Ling Qiong asked Tan Qi where he later found out that the prince was fatally injured.

Although Tan Qi hadn't read the file, he could get this information by inquiring about it.

The fatal injury was that the heart was stabbed twice, one deep and one shallow.

So when the servant girl saw the prince fell on the ground, it was very likely that he was not dead.

In other words, even if Xiang Yanran really stabbed the prince for some reason, then she is not the real murderer.

Ling Qiong patted her palms lightly, "Then the question is, who wants the prince to die the most?"

-

They have so many clues now, no other progress.

Ling Qiong did not pursue Tan Qi's arrest for the time being, and asked him to investigate it first.

Tan Qi is the Minister of Dali Temple, so it is much more convenient for him to check some things.

Tan Qi has always wanted to prove Xiang Yanran's innocence, but at this moment, he finally found a new clue, full of energy, and hurriedly left Hongfu Building.

On the way back home, Ling Qiong leaned against Ye Manxi and asked, "General, do you think it will be the queen?"

It stands to reason that the queen is the last thing that wants the prince to die. The prince is her adoptive child, and his biological mother died early. He is the queen's protection.

The most suspicious ones are the prince's brothers.

The performance the queen saw at the time may be due to other reasons...

"If you find it, you'll know." Without evidence, Ye Manxi didn't dare to guarantee it.

"After so many years, if there is any evidence, it would have been destroyed long ago."

"There will always be omissions." It's like that maid who thought she was dead, but she was still alive.

Ling Qiong rolled her eyes twice, "The queen is from the eldest grandson's family, if you can pull her down, it should be much easier for you to deal with eldest grandson Yi?"

Ye Manxi has been back for so long, but he hasn't mentioned to the emperor about Changsun Yi's collusion with the Yue Kingdom. It is estimated that the evidence in his hand is not enough to beat Changsun Yi to death at once.

Wangdu is the site of Changsun Yi, Ye Manxi dare not take risks.

Ye Manxi: "Yes."

Changsun Yi has been able to control the court all these years, and it is indispensable for the queen to help him in the harem.

The emperor loved beauties, and there were many young and beautiful concubines in the palace. However, he also loved the queen very much and never neglected her, which also made the queen's position in the harem as firm as a mountain.

She casually said a few pillow words, but it was much more useful than other people's earnest words.

Ling Qiong was in high spirits: "Then let's find a way to make this matter known to the queen."

Ye Manxi: "???"

Ye Manxi: "It doesn't have to be her doing it..."

Lingqiong nodded solemnly: "Yes."

Ye Manxi: "..."

How did she learn to frame her?

Ye Manxi shook his head helplessly, but he didn't say anything about her. He will find out about this matter, whoever did it is whoever did it, and he won't really convict people randomly.

"Tan Qi arrested you, don't you pursue it?" Ye Manxi thought that if she failed to escape and was really caught by Tan Qi and took the blame, he would not be able to meet her, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Do I look like you don't hold grudges that much?" Ling Qiong said with a smile: "He is still useful now, and if you want to deal with Chang Sun Yi, he is also useful. After the matter is over, I will naturally settle the score."

Really settle accounts.
