Chapter 39 The Master of the Knife

Seeing Li Bier taking the bait, Song Zhuoxing's lips raised slightly, and this little girl was still so smart.

It seems that the little girl doesn't need his help.

Cui Hengyue raised her hand and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and turned to Yun Chen: "Emperor Yun Du is a good general under General Mu and a famous figure in the capital. You should know very well who Cui Quan is."

Faced with such quiet compliments, Yun Chen was very helpful, and he witnessed the whole process of Cui Hengyue talking to Li Bier, and he was already suspicious of Li Bier.

Yun Chen looked at Li Bier steadily, but said to Cui Hengyue: "I naturally know who he is.

"Cui Quan is the current Duke of Jingguo, the grandfather of His Majesty today, and your grandfather."

Cui Hengyue curled her lips and glanced at the people who accused her just now: "Yes, Cui Quan is my grandfather, and you all heard what Miss Li said just now.

"How could a person who has hatred for my grandfather save me?"

Everyone nodded silently, saying that it made sense. It seemed that Miss Li said all the lies before.

Seeing that everyone believed what Cui Hengyue said, Li Bier quickly explained: "The child is innocent. When Cui Quan framed my parents, your mother had not yet married into the Cui family. I wanted to take revenge and ask Cui Quan to take revenge. How could he attack the innocent you?

"What's more, you were abandoned by the Cui family after you were born. I killed you. It's irrelevant to Cui Quan. Why should I cause trouble for myself?"

Cui Hengyue's face showed a look of contempt. If it were as she said, how could there be the disaster today?

"Miss Li is indeed a kind-hearted person who distinguishes right from wrong. Su admires him." Su Biwen praised him and bowed to Li Bier solemnly.

Li Bier hurriedly avoided Su Biwen's courtesy and said modestly: "Su Langjun is so serious. I am just following the family motto of our Li family, and it is not worth mentioning."

Pretending to behave!

Cui Hengyue turned around and asked Yun Chen: "If a traitor killed your whole family, now you have the chance to kill the murderer's family and still get away with it. Will you kill this person?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Chen's kind face instantly became ruthless: "If my family is framed to death by a rapist, then that person will kill my whole family, and I will also kill his whole family."

Li Bier was shocked. This was so similar to what she said.

Seeing Li Bier stunned, Su Biwen hurriedly spoke out to relieve her: "Miss Li has lived in Yunxuan Temple for several years, immersed in Buddhism every day, and is compassionate and hatred has long faded. How can he hurt innocent people?"

"Yeah?"

Cui Hengyue turned her finger and pointed directly at Su Biwen: "It seems that Su Langjun and Li have a close relationship with each other because they can understand the thoughts in Li's mind so much.

"It seems that what Su Langjun said to Miss Li before was protecting her?"

Yun Chen showed a thoughtful expression. If Su Biwen had an affair with Li Bier, then what he said would not be trustworthy.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Su Biwen said angrily: "Miss Li and I are friends with gentlemen. I have no personal relationships. Don't slander us."

"I didn't say you have an affair." Cui Hengyue fought back lightly.

“…”

Su Biwen was angry and was so confused that he was actually taken into the ditch by a little girl.

At this time, the guard who went out to investigate came back.

"Prince, I have checked. This pair of scissors belonged to Luo Sanniang. When Cui Hengyue and Li Bier had an accident, Luo Sanniang had left the large yard for a quarter of an hour.

"And another short knife..." The guard looked to the side: "It's Song Zhuoxing."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Song Zhuoxing in unison. Is it him?

Cui Hengyue did not look at Song Zhuoxing, but looked at Su Biwen. This kid actually stole Song Zhuoxing's short knife. It seemed that he wanted to play a scene of frame-up...

When he heard that the weapon was the master, Runzhu became anxious: "Sanlang did not assassinate Miss Cui, he..."

Song Zhuoxing held Runzhu and gestured to him not to speak with his eyes.

Then he took a step forward and said to Yun Chen: "Prince, I have indeed used this short knife, but that was when I was working in the morning, and I had already handed it over to Guard Lin before lunch."

"How did I see that you stole the short knife when Guard Lin was not paying attention?" Su Biwen said with a smile.

Yun Lin suddenly asked: "Since you saw it at that time, why don't you report to Lin Yin?"

Su Biwen: "This is your negligence. Why should I meddle in other people's business?"

“…”

Looking at the fearless Su Biwen, a trace of solemnity appeared in Song Zhuoxing's eyes.

If Su Biwen dared to say this, it must be that he stole the short knife when Lin Yin was not paying attention. Even if he didn't do it himself, he would have instructed others to do it.

"I didn't steal a short knife. I left after handing over the job. Someone must have seen this. The commander sent someone to ask."

Upon hearing this, Yun Chen ordered the guards beside him: "You go and check this matter, and Luo Sanniang..."

After the guard left, Su Biwen's eyes suddenly became sharp and he attacked Song Zhuoxing: "Where did you go when you are working in the afternoon?"

"During lunch break, I was called to Guanyin Pavilion by the general, and I was there until I returned to the yard. And when I returned to the yard, Guard Lin and others saw it." Song Zhuoxing calmly explained his whereabouts.

Su Biwen was stunned for a moment. Mu Yun summoned Song Zhuoxing? What did they say?

However, now is not the time to think about this issue, Su Biwen attacked again: "Do you dare to say that you have never been to other places before returning to the yard after you came down from Guanyin Pavilion?"

"I don't."

When Song Zhuoxing said this, there was a very brief pause in the middle.

Others didn't notice it, but Su Biwen, who had been staring at Song Zhuo, noticed it. He was overjoyed and was actually cheated out by him?

Su Biwen took the opportunity to say to Yun Chen: "Guowei, Song Xiaolangjun hesitated when answering my question just now. He was clearly lying.

"You can send someone to check it out, and you will definitely find out the truth."

Song Zhuoxing was speechless: "..."

Cui Hengyue was even more speechless. She looked at Yun Chen with dissatisfaction: "Prince, I will say it again last time. The assassins were Li Bier and Su Biwen. I was very sober at that time and could see clearly.

"The assassin is the two of them, not others."

Yun Chen fell into deep thought.

"Fat White." Yun Lin gently called back Yun Chen's thoughts and whispered to him: "Don't forget, how did we catch him back when the little madman left the South Palace privately last time?"

Yun Chen was shocked, yes, Song Zhuoxing had plotted against Cui Hengyue when he came to Yunxuan Temple for the first time. How could he know that his later maintenance was not a hypocritical act?

Yun Chen immediately ordered the guards: "Go and check it. After Song Zhuoxing left Guanyin Pavilion, where did he go during the period when he entered the large courtyard of the Dizang Pavilion?"

Although Song Zhuoxing didn't hear anything Yun Chen said, after he saw Yun Lin talking to Yun Chen, the guard left the room with Yun Chen's order.

His heart sank.

Yun Chen looked at Cui Hengyue and responded to her just saying: "At that time, there were only two people in the room, you and Li Bier. Of course, we cannot be sure whether there is a third person or not.

"Now you have different opinions and there is no definite evidence, we will not believe any party's words, so as not to be biased.

"As for Su Biwen, the guards of the South Courtyard did not see him coming and going here, and he had already returned to the big yard before the people in the South Courtyard reported the news..."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue said in surprise: "How is it possible? Even if the guards of the South Courtyard did not see Su Biwen coming in and out, he would not be able to return to the big yard in such a short time."

At this time, Yao Shisan appeared at the door: "Miss Cui, I can testify. A quarter of an hour before the guards in the South Courtyard reported the message, Su Langjun returned to the large courtyard."

"You are lying!"
