Chapter 106 Confession (Part [-])
Xiao Jinyue felt a little regretful when she saw shopkeeper He woke up. She wanted to hear him reveal more of his inner thoughts, but she didn't expect to wake up so soon.

However, confessing He Wanying was not in vain.

Shopkeeper He listened to the crowd of onlookers pointing at his master and servant, his heart was full of shock and anger.

"Am I late?" At this moment, a clear voice sounded from outside the crowd.

Xiao Jinyue turned her head to look, wondering why this person came here.

People who open their doors to do business on the street all year round naturally have good eyesight.Even if you don't know the son of Lord Zhen Guo, you will know that this person's identity is not simple when you see his aura.

Seeing him walking towards this side, everyone couldn't help avoiding to both sides, making way for a passage.

Xiao Jinyue's eyes swept over him, and then fell on the guard who was following him.

Dressed in black and black trousers, the guard with a serious face was naturally nothing to look at. What Xiao Jinyue looked at was the big sack on his shoulder.

A big sack is naturally nothing to look at, but the problem is that the big sack is always moving.

Not only was the sack moving, but judging by its shape, it was still filled with living things.

This…?
If she guessed correctly, the person in the sack must be a person.

Xiao Jinyue's eyes withdrew from the sack, and she couldn't help but fall on the prince of Zhen Guogong again out of curiosity.

It turns out that the prestigious Prince of Zhen Guo, like ordinary people, would wear sacks to those who don't like him?
I don't know who was so unlucky that it fell into the hands of this murderous god.

Lu Chengting lowered his eyes, swept across her face, paused for the curiosity on her face, turned his head and waved his hands at the guard behind him.

The guard with a serious face first smiled flatteringly at Xiao Jinyue, then slammed the big bag on his shoulder to the ground.

Just hearing that voice made Xiao Jinyue feel pain.

I don't know if the people inside were smashed, did they regret it?

The sack was smashed on the ground, and it was quiet for a while, and then began to squirm again, and at the same time, there was an indistinct sound.

The guard grabbed the bottom of the sack and shook it vigorously. A man in his twenties, with his hands and feet tied up and a rag stuffed in his mouth, rolled out of the sack.

The guard stepped forward to remove the rag from his mouth, and the man's mouth was free, and he immediately cried out, "Master, please forgive me, I don't know anything..."

Lu Chengting glanced at him expressionlessly, "Tell me everything you know, and I can spare you from death. If you dare to hide it, or talk nonsense..."

Although the words were not finished, the man could tell the meaning behind the words from the coldness in his words.

The man didn't know why he was suddenly wrapped in a sack when he was walking home in good order.But when he turned his head and saw the burnt silk and satin shop next to him, there was nothing he didn't understand.

Seeing that his eyeballs were rolling around, but he didn't speak, the guard couldn't help but stepped forward and kicked him, and said impatiently, "Hurry up, maybe it's because he wants to go underground to talk to Lord Hell?" explain?"

The man trembled in fright, and immediately begged for mercy, "I said, I said, I set fire to the Chenji silk and satin shop."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around.

Even Xiao Jinyue was a little surprised. How long has it been since the fire started last night, and the son of the Duke of Zhenguo caught the person who set the fire behind him so quickly. The speed is really amazing.

Seeing the man stop, the guard impatiently kicked him again, "Don't stop, tell me everything you know."

The guard felt guilty, because he procrastinated for a while, and let the silk shop be set on fire by this man. Fortunately, he caught the man, otherwise he would have no face to see Miss Xiao Er.

Miss Xiao Er is the son's savior. The guard was annoyed at the man who set fire to her shop, but he didn't show mercy when he kicked her.

The man twisted his face in pain, but he didn't dare to say anything.He knew that if he didn't say anything, maybe he really wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow.

Although money is good, if his life is gone, no matter how much money he has, he can't spend a copper plate. Wouldn't it be cheaper for others?
Thinking of this, the man was heartbroken, and pointed to the little boy standing on the left of shopkeeper He, "That's the guy, annoyed that the shop they fancy was cut off by others, and gave me 50 taels of silver and a can of fire." Oil, let me set fire to the Chenji silk and satin shop. He also said that after the matter is completed, I will give me another 50 taels."

Seeing that the man made a confession, the guard kicked his leg, "Is there any more, continue."

The man begged for mercy with a sad face, and he almost swore to the sky, "It's gone, it's gone, it's really gone. That's all I know, if I dare to hide it, I'll die a terrible death."

Xiao Jinyue glanced at the clerk identified by the man. Wasn't this the guy who was carrying sacks on the street that day and kindly told them that Chen Ji Silk Shop was haunted and told them not to buy from that shop?
What else does she not understand at this moment?
It must be that He Wanying took a fancy to Chen Ji Silk and Satin Shop, but she bought it first.Annoyed, shopkeeper He asked someone to set fire to her shop.

It's just that she didn't expect that her own shop was burned down as well.

This is the best example of stealing chickens without losing money.

Seeing that the man who set the fire confessed to the boy, He Wanying felt annoyed in her heart, and she didn't know what shopkeeper He ordered. The guard frightened a few words, and then confessed everything.

She winked at the boy, trying to make him deny the matter, but the boy didn't know what was going on, and he turned a blind eye to her hint as if he had been frightened.

Lu Chengting glanced over there coldly, the boy was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, kowtowed his head, and kept yelling for mercy.

Lu Chengting didn't even look at him, and turned his head to glance at the crowd.

Commander Cao's scalp was numb from this look, but he had no choice but to walk out from the crowd of onlookers.But he was muttering in his heart, he thought it was an ordinary fire case, but he didn't expect that this case not only involved the Nan'an Palace, but even the murder god of Duke Zhen Guo's son was involved.

Seeing Commander Cao stand up, Xiao Jinyue handed over a few broken pieces of porcelain wrapped in handkerchiefs, "Master Cao, the arsonist has been caught, and these pieces of porcelain are physical evidence."

The young man is naturally no stranger to Commander Cao in Xicheng. He didn't expect that Miss Xiao not only knew the famous Prince Zhen Guo, but now even Lord Cao treats her respectfully.

Both men had been involved in the arson case, and he knew it was over.

Without even hesitation, he immediately shook his body and confessed to Shopkeeper He tremblingly.

Shocked and angry, He Wanying winked at shopkeeper He again and again, trying to make him deny the matter.
