Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

"as you wish."

Li Chen agreed, threw a knife into his cage, and said calmly, "There will be a big fire in a moment, let's end it here."

Cen Hanshan didn't speak, but picked up the knife silently.

Compared with burning and grilling, it is naturally more enjoyable to commit suicide with a knife.

Li Chen led Kang Heng to solve these complicated matters, left the dungeon, quietly merged into the darkness, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Not a moment later, the fire ignited.

The whole camp was in a mess.

In the emperor's tent, he enjoyed the concubine's service while listening to the chaos outside without making a sound.

Instead, the young concubine was worried: "Your Majesty, outside..."

The emperor looked coldly: "The matter is chaotic, let's stop here."

Sure enough, as Mo Che said, the matter of the past few days will not come to a conclusion after all, and he has no power to distract himself from solving this matter——Li Wang and An Wang are watching from the dark, he would rather leave people behind. Protect yourself by your side, and will not send anyone to continue investigating the truth.

only……

These people seem to be getting more and more rampant.

The emperor swept away the concubines in front of him, only a chill remained in his eyes: "Change clothes for me."

In the chaos of the fire, the emperor could sleep soundly.

……

At the same time, Xia Bai'an was also awakened by this matter.

Yupan came over and told: "It's just that there was a fire outside because of the dryness, and someone has already dealt with it. Madam, please continue to sleep."

Xia Bai'an still felt a little uneasy.

But thinking that Mo Che should still be in the mountains, the Prime Minister's Mansion and Qian'er had to worry more.

She frowned and ordered Yupan: "You go and call Qian'er to my tent to practice calligraphy for one night, and then send some people to the Prime Minister's Mansion to take a look, so don't cause trouble for the Yun family."

"Prime Minister's Mansion?" Yu Pan was puzzled, what did this matter have to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Just go."

Xia Bai'an raised his eyebrows, but he was not at all impatient with the jade plate.

It's just because the Prime Minister's Mansion was also implicated today, if the black hands behind the scenes want to clean up the traces, it's not impossible to attack the Prime Minister's Mansion, it's better to be careful.

After finishing these things, she got up to accompany Mo Qian to practice calligraphy and read books, and was sleepless all night again.

……

The fire was raging, but someone led people out of the chaos.

Several black shadows led people to escape from the fire, but no one found them.

When they came to the hidden mountain forest where there was no one, the leader first took off the black hood on his head.

"Cen Yishan, what else do you want to tell my prince?"

Fifth prince Li Cong looked back at the three figures with heavy eyes.

All three of them took off their black robes.

Mo Che and Ao Pingchuan were holding down Cen Yishan who had just been grabbed from the dungeon.

Most of Cen Yishan's legs were burned, and there was a knife stuck in his chest, and he was about to bleed to death.

But Mo Che put him down and asked, "Tell me."

"At the beginning, King An ordered me to kill the fifth prince and concubine..."

"What... don't talk nonsense! How could King An..."

"The fifth prince's concubine has a bad background, and it's useless to accompany His Royal Highness the fifth prince's side. It's better to kill... find another..."

Cen Yishan's voice gradually weakened.

Li Cong still wanted to go forward and grab him, but Cen Yishan shook out a letter by himself, his eyes gradually became distracted, and finally, his eyes only turned to Mo Che, squeezed his palm with all his strength, and completely lowered his head .

"Hey!"

Ao Pingchuan scolded angrily, but Cen Yishan was already out of breath, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he felt relieved to die.

Mo Che said: "Let him go, and take this letter to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."

After speaking, Mo Che took Cen Yishan's body first and put it on the grass next to him. Without anyone noticing, he took out a small jade pendant from Cen Yishan's bosom and put it in his bosom.

Ao Pingchuan handed the note to Li Cong.

Li Cong read it.

"This is... Li Chen's handwriting and Li Chen's seal! It turns out that King An really manipulated Cen Yishan to kill her!"

Ao Pingchuan's eyes sank: "Is it because of the fifth concubine's background?"

Mo Che stood up and responded indifferently: "The fifth prince's concubine's background is not considered good, and the fifth prince's concubine herself has nothing to do with the world and does not like to associate with other female relatives. A gentle man."

Li Cong slowly kneaded the paper in his hand into balls, his gaze became even colder.

He walked up to Cen Yishan's corpse in disbelief and lifted him up.

"Wake up! Tell me, did King An do this?"

"..."

Cen Yishan naturally did not respond.

Ao Pingchuan watched silently, but his gaze turned to Mo Che: "Do you think His Highness Wang An really did this?"

"It's not impossible, but I can't easily draw conclusions." Mo Che pretended to be contemplative, and he continued after a while, "However, today he speaks for His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince and clears up his grievances, even at the expense of using Taiwei Sun to smuggle weapons. Things come to clear up the grievances, and you are not even afraid of tearing your face with Sun Taiwei in the open, it doesn't look like you are against His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."

Ao Pingchuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Mo Che, something is wrong again.

Up to now, he has no idea who side Mo Che is on, and he doesn't know why he vacillates between several forces.

And Li Cong questioned Cen Yishan for a long time, but in the end he just fell to the ground and pressed the ball of paper firmly to his forehead.

"How could it be King An... King An clearly helped me a lot, and his Princess An is my aunt. We should be..."

"He is the emperor's thorn in the side."

Mo Che suddenly spoke up, and asked His Highness the Fifth Prince, "The emperor is such a fearful person, why does His Highness the Fifth Prince think that he will help you wholeheartedly?"

Li Cong's body stiffened visibly for a moment.

He slowly raised his head in a daze.

"You mean, is everything Cen Yishan left behind true?"

"I don't know if it's true or not. I just look at the current situation. Instead of believing in King An, His Highness the Fifth Prince should believe in himself."

After Mo Che finished speaking, he saw that the search team was about to turn back, his eyes sank, "This is all I have said. I brought you to Cen Yishan just to find out about the death of the fifth prince and concubine. After that, I still have to look for traces of the tiger, so don't bother me anymore."

After speaking, Mo Che left.

Li Cong stood up slowly from the ground, looked at Mo Che's back, and asked Ao Pingchuan.

"You and Mo Che are good friends, do you think what he said is trustworthy?"

"Your Highness, he and I are not really close friends. At the beginning he introduced me to you, but it was only because I helped him clear up his grievances and get out of Qingshan Town. As for what you said just now... I don't think it's a lie." Ao Hirakawa explained.

Li Cong said with a sullen face, "Why do you see that?"

Ao Pingchuan asked Li Cong seriously: "Mo Che has never lied to you about the Fifth Prince's Concubine, and he even helped you find Cen Yishan's whereabouts before. Wash away the grievances of killing the fifth prince and concubine back then."

Li Cong recalled - it seemed that the only connection between Mo Che and himself was the death of the fifth prince and concubine.

It seemed that Mo Che was somewhat believable.
