His eyeliner told the story one by one.

When he heard the wolves guarding, the emperor showed a smile on his face.

"It should be the girl from the Shen family in Xiangyun Village, right?"

She can always do some unusual things, no wonder his son always likes to get along with her.

"Yes," the guard bowed his head and cupped his hands: "However, I heard that this is not what Ms. Shen meant, but Ms. Shen is helping to fulfill someone else's will."

The emperor's smile suddenly faded, and he asked doubtfully, "Whose will?"

The guard hurriedly told about the Wu family's affairs, and by the way, also handed over his investigation results.

"I thought it was an ordinary fire, but I personally went to Xitai Village to inquire about the news. I went to several government offices and found something strange. The death of the three members of the Wu family may not have been an accident."

The emperor took the notebook and looked at it for a while, his brows furrowed more tightly, and displeasure welled up in his eyes.

The guard said in a low voice: "The villagers of Xitai Village can indeed confirm that the Wu family and his wife died in the fire, and some villagers saw a man in black entering and leaving his house that night."

"Coincidentally, that night, Ms. Shen also lived in the Wu family, and Wu Zuchang, the son of the Wu family who went up the mountain with her, died of a knife wound."

"However, in the case records of the government office, it is only written that the three members of the Wu family died accidentally, not homicide."

After reading the scriptures, the emperor found all kinds of clues, allowing him to guess what happened.

"Bastard!" He slammed the notebook on the table violently, shaking the pen holder back and forth, showing that he was in a hurry.

The old lady at the door listened to the conversation and also trembled in fright.

Why did the emperor lose his temper so much?

"This is clearly aimed at Shen Ningning!" The emperor paced back and forth, like a violent lion, his eyes were condensed and became deep and dangerous.

The guard nodded: "Xiaozhi also thinks so, but since the emperor started to pay attention to Miss Shen, he arranged for Xiaozhi to observe her."

"Miss Shen is a kind person, and her reputation inside and outside Xiangyun Village is a testament to her. Besides, she has a simple interpersonal relationship and has never had any ill relations with anyone. Why would someone kill a child?"

The emperor slowly sat back on the chair, his eyes were even colder, with a strong murderous aura.

"Ling Wei...they know that Ling Wei and Shen Ningning are friends." So, want to kill his friend?

The guard didn't speak, obviously acquiescing to this view.

The emperor suddenly laughed, this smile was bitingly cold and filled with terrifying anger.

"No wonder, no wonder! I said why Ling Wei didn't want Shen Ningning to enter the palace. It turned out that he had guessed it a long time ago. He was surrounded by wolves, and everyone was staring at him."

"If he is a little careless, even the friend he wants to make the most will be retaliated against!"

He smiled and became bitter.

"I have been kept in the dark about what Ling Wei has seen through for a long time."

"Don't blame him for not kissing me!"

When the emperor said this, the guards didn't dare to speak up.

"No...not right..." He suddenly thought of something again, his eyes flickered with the candlelight: "If you want to kill Shen Ningning, you won't even silence everyone in the Wu family."

"What are those people trying to hide?" the emperor thought with a gloomy look.

suddenly!

He said to the guard: "Go and investigate secretly, has the Wu family had any contact with any suspicious people recently, no matter how big or small, let me find out everything!"

"Yes." The guard bowed his hands and retreated, and hurried away in the dark.

On the other side, the doors and windows of Concubine Li's palace were closed.

"Trash! Brother, this trash!" She cursed angrily.

The mother who came to report knelt at her feet, scared out of her wits.

Just now she told Concubine Li that Wei Shangshu arranged for Du Yuanwai to assassinate Shen Ningning, but she accidentally killed the fake family member Li Concubine found for her.

Now Shen Ningning wanted to avenge the Wu family, so he insisted on this matter and made many noises outside the city.

The emperor must have known.

Concubine Li was furious.

"He knew that he would cause trouble for Bengong, and only when something happened, he remembered that Bengong had warned him not to mess with the people around the prince. Why didn't he listen?"

"If he didn't intervene, maybe Shen Ningning really believed that the Wu family was her family, and I could use the Wu family to control her, which is equivalent to placing an eyeliner around the prince."

"It's good now, Shen Ningning is disobedient, and the Wu family is dead, the emperor will investigate it soon, I will see how he ends up this time!"

Concubine Li was so angry that she got a headache and became dizzy for a while, she fell down on the imperial concubine's couch all of a sudden.

The nanny hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, calm down and take care of yourself!"

How could Li Fei calm down?

The emperor favored the crown prince, so for so many years, she only dared to do some trivial tricks.

But once she provoked the crown prince, Mo Lingwei, a mad dog, not only made her son disabled, but he was still at ease so far.

If Mo Lingwei finds out, Wei Shangshu will bribe the killer to target Shen Ningning...

Li Fei shuddered.

Her pretty face, as if she had seen a ghost, was only pale with fear.

"You!" She grabbed the nanny's collar like a madman: "You leave the palace immediately and tell the elder brother to let him kill all the murderers and not keep any of them!"

Mammy was unresponsive, Li Fei urged and shouted: "Go!"

"Yes... yes!" Mammy ran out scrambling.

however.

When the news reached Wei Shangshu's mansion, he was also anxiously sweating profusely.

"Kill them all? Those assassins haven't come back until now."

Not only that, I heard that Shen Ningning caught a live one and hid it.

It must be waiting for Mo Lingwei to return to Beijing and let him investigate.

Once the prince intervenes, this matter will become troublesome.

He hurriedly asked the housekeeper, "Has the third brother come back?"

The butler was sweating profusely. After searching for a long time, he replied: "No...no, the third master hasn't come back for two days. I don't know where he went."

"This bastard spends his days out drinking and drinking, and doesn't even know when the disaster is coming." Wei Shangshu was anxious.

Concubine Li bought the Wu family because of the third master Wei.

He was afraid that there might be something wrong with the benefits he gave to the Wu family, so he had to communicate with his third brother in advance.

But unexpectedly, Wei Sanye hadn't been seen for two days.

Wei Shangshu immediately ordered: "Send more people to look for him, go to the brothel and outhouse where he usually goes, dig three feet for me and drag him back!"

The butler hurried away with the guards.

Wei Shangshu felt that this was not enough, so he called his confidant and asked him to go to Xiangyun Village tomorrow and bring Shen Ningning to the capital.

If there is anything, sit down and discuss it carefully. If Shen Ningning wants to seek justice for the Wu family, she should find a substitute for her.

In short, this matter must be dealt with before the prince returns.

He must not be allowed to find out that the Wei family is behind the scenes.

Not only the Wei family, but other high-ranking officials, when they heard the news of the tragic death of the Wu family, were afraid that it was their own dude who did it.

So every household checked thoroughly overnight to make sure that it had nothing to do with their own family. Even if anyone had a naughty son, they were not allowed to go out these days, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body.

That night, Shen Ningning slept soundly.

She still didn't know her actions, which made the whole capital tremble three times.

The next morning.

The guards arranged by Wei Shangshu rushed to Xiangyun Village, intending to take Shen Ningning away.

However, before they entered the village, they saw the prince's car parked at the entrance of the village.

Wei Shangshu's people were scared to pee.

How did they know that the prince went straight to Xiangyun Village as soon as he came back, and he didn't even return to the palace!
The guard's face was pale, and his legs and feet were weak: "Quick, let's go back and inform the adults that something happened."

The prince met Shen Ningning first, so he would definitely know about the Wu family.

It's over, it's over now!
