It seemed that there was no end of the road, and the trapped beast had some courage. Jiang Boyu turned around and faced Xia Lishuang with a fierce look on his face.
"My lord, I am also a prefect! I have the same position as the Nine Ministers, and I am under the orders of Your Majesty! Even if you are the prince, you are not allowed to search my yamen mansion in such a grand manner!"
"If I fail to become the king of this county, what about the envoy to Liangjiang who has the imperial order?"
Xia Lishuang's soft words made Jiang Boyu stunned for a moment, but when Cheng Feng took half a step forward and walked out of the shadow behind the seat, Ling Ran's righteousness was invisibly released, suppressing Jiang Boyu bit by bit.
Cheng Fenglou took out a bronze waist plate from his arms with a big word "Xun" on it. It was Xia Lishuang's people who brought it back to him yesterday.
"I am the Inspector of Liangjiang, Cheng Fenglou. I have been ordered by His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the case of the Supreme Happiness Powder. Regardless of the official position or status of the suspected persons, they can be killed first and then reported! Jiang Boyu, I am here to kill you, the source of the Supreme Happiness Powder.
Arrest and bring him to justice! Search!"
This, wasn't this person killed by his people? Why is he here?!
Jiang Boyu shook his mouth in disbelief. His heart was so cold that he had no time to stop Qian Yu and others.
Seeing Uncle Jiang's face turned ashen, Wen Ranran was very happy. She happily chased Qian Yu and said, "Qian Yu, I know where this thief likes to hide his things. I will take you there!"
…
Wen Ranran took Qianyu directly into Jiang Boyu's dark room in the study. Taking advantage of the gap between the guards' search, he asked Qianyu in a low voice, "Qianyu, did you find anything in Niutou Village today?"
"After the Niutou Village was captured, someone was there to finish things off. I came back first, and I didn't know what I would find." Qian Yu replied truthfully, and saw Wen Ranran's face slump, puzzled, "The concubine is looking for
What?"
"without."
Wen Ranran replied perfunctorily, and happened to see a guard tear open a painting on the wall of the darkroom. Behind the painting was a hidden compartment with a sandalwood box inside.
"Don't move, don't move!"
The guards who were searching all stopped and looked at Wen Ranran nervously.
I saw Wen Ranran quickly running to the secret compartment and carefully holding out the sandalwood box, as if she was holding a rare treasure.
Open.
Inside is an exquisite... nine-link ring, only the size of a palm, made of pure gold.
Qianyu, who had been looking forward to it, was a little disappointed.
It turned out to be a gadget.
Wen Ranran couldn't put it down, "It seems to be a little different from the ordinary nine-link chain. How can I explain this..."
…
Qian Yu led people to find various letters, account books, and lists from the prefect's secret room, plus the evidence collected by Cheng Fenglou from previous cases, as well as a number of witnesses from Niutou Village, and Jiang Boyu was arrested.
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Qian Yu handed over some of the letters found during the search to Xia Lishuang.
"My lord, it seems that the prefect is not just a member of the prince. There is also correspondence between him and King Qingyun here."
Qingyun King Xia Yuanzhi, the current fifth prince, seems to be a laid-back prince, but in fact he has a deep mind.
Xia Lishuang briefly read the letter and thought: "It seems that Jiang Boyu didn't send Eagle Eye to hunt me down."
"If you can send Eagle Eye to hunt down the prince, you must be inseparable from the prince!" Qian Yu was particularly sure, "Now that the Yu family, the Wang family, and the prefect have all been eradicated by you, the prince of Jiangrao County will definitely be the prince in the future.
You have the final say."
Xia Lishuang responded lightly and suppressed the matter temporarily.
