The more General An talked, the more excited he became. He clenched his hands into fists, eager to step forward and tear Prince Rong in half.
Prince Rong quickly said with a mournful face: "Father-in-law, those are my wife and daughter, my biological daughter. Do you think I would do such a thing?"
General An said without any politeness: "Is there anything you can't do? You won't even let your goddaughter go!"
Prince Rong's face immediately darkened. ?.?????.???
In just one day, the news that Prince Rong married his pregnant goddaughter to Mr. Li spread throughout the streets.
General An had always known that his daughter did not allow Prince Rong to take concubines, and he also learned that Prince Rong was resentful of his daughter because of this. Now that these two things happened so suddenly, he could not help but connect them. .
Prince Rong came back to his senses slightly, squinted his eyes, avoided their gazes, and knelt down towards General An and said: "Father-in-law, that matter was indeed my fault, but I have explained it clearly to my wife, and she has forgiven me. How could I kill her because of this?"
The old monarch also felt that General An's idea was a bit ridiculous, "General An, no matter how incompatible the relationship between the emperor's brother and his sister-in-law is, it will not kill anyone. Besides, the human heart is made of flesh. Who would do anything to his own daughter?"
As he spoke, he patted the two of them on the shoulders and said: "You two are too sad, why don't you go inside and have a rest."
General An refused to listen and said angrily: "Your Majesty, I cannot let my daughter and granddaughter die in such an unclear manner."
As he said this, he turned around and ordered the person behind him: "Go and bring everyone from Prince Rong's Mansion."
"Yes, General."
Prince Rong is not afraid either. His men have always been in the dark and are probably far away now.
"Father-in-law, don't worry. For their sake, I will definitely find out who the murderer is." After saying that, he followed General An's example and ordered the people behind him: "Take everyone in the house, even the groom." Bring them to me, the king."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The boys left one after another, and soon the yard was filled with people.
They are all maids and servants in the mansion.
Then there are the bed-warming maids in Prince Rong's house.
General An sent people to interrogate them one by one.
Three or four hours passed and nothing was found.
After Prince Rong thought that his big deal was about to be accomplished, he heard General An's guards running over in a hurry, "General, general, we have found a suspicious person."
General An stood up suddenly and asked anxiously: "Who is the suspicious person?"
I saw several armored soldiers behind the guard holding down a man in black.
The man in black was covered in injuries, and his dull eyes looked ahead, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
Prince Rong froze in place. Isn't this the person he arranged to set fire to?
How would it appear here?
Where did his injuries come from?
Last night, the man in black had really bad luck.
Du Wanchun and Han Yan'er also stayed at Prince Rong's Mansion because of Princess Rong's request to stay.
She discovered that the man in black was secretly setting fire to the backyard of Princess Rong and Miss Xiang'er's yard.
The man in black had just lit the fire, and when he was about to put away the fire, he encountered two wild cats.
First he dropped the fire stick in his hand, and then he was chased by the two wild cats.
The man in black raised his sword and tried to drive away the wild cats, but the cats came more and more.
Each of them had bright green eyes and stretched out their pointed claws, as if they wanted to metabolize him into eight pieces.
In order not to attract attention, the man in black had to flee quickly.
But for some reason, no matter how he escaped, he couldn't leave the palace.
Seeing that the fire was burning more and more fiercely, and more and more people were alarmed, he had no choice but to escape towards the deserted courtyard of the palace.
The wild cats followed him all the way, and finally stopped in the corridor of a dilapidated yard.
This used to be the courtyard of a confidante of Prince Rong. Before he was married to the current Princess Rong, he doted on this woman in every possible way. But later, for the sake of power and status, Prince Rong decided to marry the young lady of the An family.
They sent someone to strangle this confidante here, and even hid the body in the cracks of the stones in the house.
It was as if this woman had never been here.
The man in black was the person responsible for killing this woman.
