At Beiyun Prince's Mansion, Ling Xiao came to Yan Beichen and told everything he saw at the gate of Xinyuan Hou Mansion today!
Yan Beichen drank the wine in his hand, and a smile appeared on his lips!
"Didn't she say she just wanted to live well? Then why did she do these things today?"
she? Ling Xiao looked confused. He didn't know who her master was talking about.
Could it be that the legitimate daughter of the Xinyuan Hou Mansion just entered the mansion today, but what is her relationship with her master?
"That's right! Have you found out the identities of those assassins?"
Ling Xiao calmed down slightly, nodded slightly and said, "It's been found out!"
"Based on the clues and traces left by those people, it can almost be determined that those who attacked the master came from the Ningguo Duke's mansion!"
"Ning Guogong Li Yang? Does he have any trouble with his master? Why did he want to assassinate his master?"
Ling Yu looked puzzled, and it was obvious that she had a lot of worries in her heart!
Yan Beichen and Ling Xiao looked at each other slightly. Although there was no feud or hatred between Yan Beichen and Li Yang, Li Yang was the uncle of King Yan Qixuan of Qi'an!
The reason why he sent someone to assassinate him was probably to help King Qi'an clear the obstacles to ascending to the throne of prince!
What makes Yan Beichen wonder is whether his brother Yan Qixuan also knows about this!
"Master, now that we know who the mastermind is, should we go to Duke Ning's mansion and ask him to give us an explanation?"
"Why kill? Just stay here and be honest. Don't cause trouble to the master all day long!"
Ling Xiao slapped his disobedient sister on the head!
"Why are you hitting me again? You're the reason why I don't grow taller!"
"And how can I bring my master into trouble? You said it yourself. Those who assassinated my master are from Duke Ning's mansion. So let's go to him and demand justice. Is there any problem?"
"I……"
Seeing that Ling Xiao was about to hit him again, Ling Yu quickly hid behind Yan Beichen!
"Master, look at him, he knows how to bully me!"
Yan Beichen shook his head helplessly, and then whispered: "You! Don't think too much about it, why did Ling Xiao hit you?"
"Although we are now certain that the person who assassinated us is someone from Duke Ning's mansion, we don't have conclusive evidence in our hands. If we come here to demand justice, we will definitely be the ones who suffer in the end!"
"Why?" Ling Yu looked at Yan Beichen in confusion!
"We are obviously the victims. How can we suffer if we go to ask for an explanation?"
After listening to his sister's inquiry, Ling Xiao once again shook his head helplessly!
"You really think Ning Guogong's mansion is a vegetable market, right? A place where you can do whatever you want? Just like this, we go to ask for justice without any basis. If we say that the person is sent by them, they will easily Do you admit it?"
"Now those assassins are dead and can't escape. If Ning Guogong refuses to admit his guilt, can you really fight them?"
"Don't get justice by then and end up with a false accusation. That would really be more of a loss than a gain!"
"I……"
What Ling Xiao said was really what Ling Yu was thinking!
"That's just the way it is!"
"What are the facts? The fact is that if you go to Prince Qi'an's Mansion to question the crime without any evidence, not only will you not be able to help the master, but you will also get the reputation of ostracizing your brothers!"
"Is that so?"
When he heard that it would implicate Yan Beichen, Ling Yu suddenly lost his mind!
Yan Beichen smiled and nodded, "And I think those people in black may not really be from Duke Ning's mansion!"
What?
Ling Yu was slightly startled, "Master, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect Ling Xiao that he is lying!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
As soon as Ling Yu finished speaking, he received another solid slap from Ling Xiao!
Ling Yu covered his head and stared at his brother with an unhappy expression!
"Master, you are right. From the clues we got, we can indeed conclude that those men in black are from Duke Ning's Mansion, but I found that they are all wearing military boots!"
"Military boots?"
Ling Yu was startled when he heard this, completely forgetting who he was being beaten just now, and came over with a curious look on his face!
"What does this mean? Could it be that Duke Ning's mansion has its own private soldiers? And in order to assassinate the master, they even used their own private soldiers?"
"Impossible! Mr. Ning Guogong can't be so bold. He dares to raise private soldiers. That's..."
Ling Yu made a beheading motion on his own neck!
"Even if you are a prince, it is against the law to raise private soldiers, let alone a minister. Isn't he looking for death?"
"Master, do you think this is a good idea? Let's tell the emperor about his private soldiers, so that Duke Ning Guo will have to..."
Ling Yu was talking enthusiastically when he looked up and saw his master and his brother looking at him with a strange look!
That look in his eyes seemed... as if he was saying, "Look at Mr. Ning Guo, is he such a stupid person?"
Ling Yu realized that she had said the wrong thing. Although she was not sure where she was wrong, the expression on her master's face and her brother's expression had already explained the problem!
"I'll shut up now!"
Ling Yu took a few steps back slightly and covered his mouth with both hands, indicating that he would not say another word from now on!
Yan Beichen and Ling Xiao looked at each other slightly, shook their heads helplessly and whispered: "Ning Guogong is not so bold as to raise private soldiers. Even if he did raise private soldiers, he would not use them so easily, so Those people are actually not from Duke Ning’s mansion!”
"What? Those people are not..."
Ling Yu spoke subconsciously, but when she caught her brother's eyes, she shut up obediently, then covered her mouth and retreated to her own place!
Ling Yu twitched his lips at Yan Beichen and gave him a "Master, please continue" look!
"Those men in black who assassinated us all had extraordinary skills and superb martial arts. They were definitely not ordinary soldiers. I am afraid that the only soldier who could pursue us closely and yet stretch his skills was Yao Zhenyao. He’s one of the general’s men!”
"Yao Zhen? Is there anything about him involved? Then let's..."
Ling Yu almost couldn't control her mouth again, but Ling Xiao's look made her shut up again, and then she shrank aside to think about it slowly!
As for whether she figured out any useful information in the end, only she knows!
"Let's go! Let's go to Duke Ning's mansion!"
What? Going to Duke Ning's Mansion?
Ling Yu, who hadn't figured it out yet, quickly followed Yan Beichen's footsteps!
"Master, didn't you say that the person who assassinated you was not someone from Ning Guo Gong's Mansion? You also said that we can't act rashly now, so why are we going to Ning Guo Gong's Mansion now?"
Yan Beichen stopped slightly, turned around and smiled softly at Ling Yu!
"If we didn't go, how would he know that someone was pretending to be someone from his Duke Ning's residence?"
