Chapter 421
Lieutenant Chen was a little confused when he saw Xiao Lintian leaving angrily.
Why did Princess Yi and Prince Yi become so unfamiliar after not seeing each other for a few days?
"Chen Buwei, we'll talk about the inside story later. Can I check Lingping's body again?"
Ling Yu asked tentatively.
Fortunately, Lieutenant Chen knew Ling Yu to a certain extent and did not doubt Ling Yu because of Ling Lan's words.
He nodded.
Ling Yu took out her gloves, put them on and squatted down to inspect Ling Ping's body.
There were indeed many stab wounds on the body, and it seemed that Lingping suffered a lot of torture before her death.
Ling Yu looked at her hands again and found that several of Ling Ping's fingers had been broken off!
Is this kind of torture meant to extract some inside information from Ling Ping?
Ling Yu continued to check while thinking. She remembered Ling Ping's habit of hiding banknotes in the seams of her clothes, so she fumbled with her clothes.
After she touched every corner, Ling Yu took out a banknote from Ling Ping's cuff patch.
Lieutenant Chen was stunned. When he came over and saw a five hundred tael banknote, he shook his head.
"This girl is quite rich. She only has 500 taels and yet she is poor! It's really..."
He didn’t even know how to describe it!
Ling Yu checked again, but after checking all the patches this time, nothing was found.
She stood up in frustration and asked Wu Zuo to carry the body away.
"Chen Buwei, let's find a place to talk again!"
Ling Yu looked at the blood on the ground and remembered the scene where Ling Ping said that Lan Huijuan had her child aborted. She really couldn't stay any longer.
When Chen Buwei returned to Shuntian Mansion, Ling Yu got straight to the point.
"Chen Buwei, it seems that Lingping and I have a grudge, here's the specifics!"
Ling Yu told Chen Buwei that Ling Ping defrauded her of her money and poisoned her, as well as the reason why she came to find her.
When Chen Buwei heard the scene of Lan Huijuan's death, he was frightened. He never thought that such a shocking thing had ever happened in Zhenyuan Hou Mansion!
He now understood why Ling Yu wanted to talk to him in private.
This is because we don’t want these scandals to be known to outsiders.
"Chen Buwei, I originally planned to take Lingping to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion this morning to ask the old Marquis to make the decision for my mother... I never thought that she would be rescued due to a moment of negligence!"
"Rather than killing Lingping directly, I would rather Wang's acquittal!"
"So, even if the scalpel is mine, I will not kill Lingping now!"
Ling Yu said sincerely: "Chen Buwei, I hope you will handle this case in a low-key manner! Ling Ping killed Feng Bo before, so let's close the case as Feng Bo's friend avenged her!"
"The things here are complicated. Even if you investigate Wang and Qiu Wenshuang's reputations with suspicion, there will be no results!"
Chen Buwei pondered for a while and felt that what Ling Yu said was right.
Ling Ping is dead, and he has no credentials. He went to investigate Ling Xiangsheng's wife and Qiu Wenshuang for a maid, but nothing was found!
Moreover, the old Marquis is a person he respects, and he does not want the old Marquis and his family to be discussed for this matter.
"Chen Buwei, leave this matter to me! I will definitely find out who killed Ling Ping!"
Ling Yu hopes that Chen Buwei will give him this face.
Chen Buwei nodded: "Okay, Princess Yi, I will do as you say! I will arrange the scalpel for you!"
Ling Yu thanked Chen Buwei before taking Lingxuan and Tao Zi back home.
Lingxuan said angrily: "Who is it? Dare to steal Master's scalpel and frame Master..."
"Fortunately, Lieutenant Chen believed in the master, otherwise the master would have been imprisoned!"
Ling Yu smiled bitterly: "Do you think this matter is over? Qiu Wenshuang and Ling Lan came to expose me. Did they just make Buwei Chen doubt me?"
