If "Chen Wan" had Zhan Beihan as a witness, there was no need to investigate this matter.
Mr. Shen’s death must have nothing to do with her.
But, it's a pity.
Xiao Lingyue said helplessly: "His Highness Yi just sent a carriage to take me to the inn. He himself was not with me, so he could not give me a certificate."
Emperor Zhaoming stopped talking, and the prince frowned slightly.
Cui Li breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask, "Then have you been staying in the inn for the past two days? Have you never been out?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "I have almost never been out."
"Almost?" Cui Li stared at her with sharp eyes, "County Lord, this case is of great importance. I hope you can truthfully express your whereabouts and not have any vague places."
Xiao Lingyue said: "In the past two days, I have been to two places. One is a medicine shop, and I went to prepare some medicinal materials.
The other is the ready-to-wear shop.
Because my luggage was discarded by the Shen family, I had to buy some clothes for a while."
Cui Li: "Apart from these, have you been to other places?"
Xiao Lingyue shook her head affirmatively: "No more."
"I dare to ask the county lord, what have you done in the inn these two days?"
"I'm recuperating." Xiao Lingyue said bluntly, "I've been injured a little recently. My son is very worried about me, so he asked me to rest in the inn. I went to the pharmacy to grab medicine because of this."
Choi Li immediately asked, "Why are you injured?"
Could it be that she was left behind when she killed the old marquis?
Xiao Lingyue hesitated for a moment and said, "I am not convenient to say this, but both Your Majesty and Your Highness should know it."
Cui Li was stunned.
Emperor Zhaoming and the prince both understood.
The wound on "Chen Wan" was caused by Zhan Beihan when he went to Hulang Mountain to investigate.
This is a confidential itinerary, only Emperor Zhaoming, Prince and Zhan Beihan's confidants knew that Xiao Lingyue was not easy to say.
The prince said, "The father and I do know the injuries on County Lord Anping's body, and they have nothing to do with the case of the old Marquis. Lord Cui can ask something else."
It means that there is no need to ask this point.
"Yes." Cui Li responded tactfully, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"As far as I know, the county lord Anping seems to be proficient in martial arts and is very skilled. He once fought with many assassins in Xiangguo Temple and did not lose his advantage!
Although you said you have been staying in the inn to recuperate and have never been to the Shen family, is it possible that you secretly left the inn in the middle of the night, sneaked into the Shen family, killed the old marquis, and then returned to the inn?"
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
Everyone in the hall was suddenly shocked.
This guess...sounds reasonable!
Cui Li continued: "The guards of Chen's mansion are not strong, and there are no masters in the mansion. With the ability of Anping County Lord, it should not be difficult to do this, right?"
Xiao Lingyue was stunned. She glanced at the Minister of Justice in surprise.
This person has some skills.
She nodded and admitted, "It's really not difficult if I want to do it."
Cui Li's eyes were slightly cold, she stared at her tightly, and asked word by word: "So, did you do it?"
Xiao Lingyue looked at him calmly: "Of course not."
Cui Li: "Who can prove it?"
Xiao Lingyue asked back, "Can Lord Cui prove that I did this?" This chapter has been completed!
