Chapter 334 Explore the Great Witch Peak Again
Lin Zhiruo asked, "Miss Liu, you must tell us the true situation without hiding anything."
Liu Shiyu hesitated for a while, then lowered her head and whispered: "I didn't know until I was in the Jiang Mansion that there was an extremely noble person behind the sword demon. Moreover, Master Tu also obeyed that person's orders."
"Who is it?" Lin Zhiruo asked, raising her voice.
He opened his eyes and saw that Liu Shiyu seemed to be very afraid, so he comforted him: "Don't be afraid. The two of us are His Majesty's secret envoys, and our words can be heard directly from heaven. Even if we are in a high position, if we violate the laws of Chu, we will report to His Majesty It’s clear.”
Liu Shiyu hesitated for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to say, "Yes... it's Princess Feixue!"
"Ah?!" Lin Zhiruo was shocked.
Zhang Kaidong frowned slightly, trying to hide his emotions.
As courtiers of the Chu State, of course they knew the news of Nangong Feixue's return to the country. However, they did not know the princess's specific itinerary, nor did they know that she would stay in Linzhou.
What's more, I didn't expect that Princess Feixue, who had just returned to China, would get involved in this major case.
I felt a chill running down my spine as I opened the hole.
The Supervisor belongs to the Crown Prince, and the Sword Demon belongs to Princess Feixue. Now that the Sword Demon is making such a big fuss in Linzhou, it is obvious that the Princess is openly declaring war on the Prince.
Unexpectedly, behind this tragedy, there was such a complicated struggle for interests.
As the Chu Emperor's spy, the people in the Insight Department naturally had no good impression of the prince in recent years.
But in this matter, Princess Feixue seems to have gone a bit too far. Even if you want to kill Jiang Jingwei, why do you need to destroy his whole family? Are you going to drag Liu Xuesheng's family with you?
Since the establishment of the Insight Department, it has always adhered to the word loyalty, not involved in party disputes, and only respects His Majesty.
But now, the matter involves the two top powers, the Prince and Princess Feixue. Should we continue to investigate?
After leaving Ji Ba Tang, the two Insight Envoys walked aimlessly on the streets of Linzhou City with their own concerns, saying nothing.
Arriving at an inn, the two of them went in, found a secluded place to sit down, and ordered two side dishes.
While waiting for the food, Lin Zhiruo finally lost her composure and took the lead in breaking the silence: "Master, Miss Liu's words may not all be credible, right?"
She opened her eyes and looked around, then lowered her voice and said, "Of course, as a survivor of the Liu family, what she said will definitely be directed towards the Liu family. However, regarding Princess Feixue's support for Tu Wenbo and Sword Demon, I guess she didn't dare make it up.
Although Jiang Jingwei was from the crown prince, the Liu family and the Jiang family were once relatives. But now that Jiang Jingwei is dead, Liu Shiyu, as a surviving descendant of the Liu family, cannot risk beheading to frame the princess for no reason! "
Lin Zhiruo said: "Now that the finger is pointed at Princess Feixue, how can we investigate? We can't go directly to the princess to question her, right?"
Zhang Kaidong muttered: "Princess Feixue is smart and calm. She has just returned to the country and her foundation is not stable, so she should not show such a sharp edge. Besides, according to my understanding of her, she is not a violent person. Even if Jiang Jingwei needs to be punished, There is no need to destroy his whole family, let alone drag Liu Xuesheng with him!
The notice only stated that Jiang Jingwei colluded with Liu Xuesheng and massacred 27 Wuxia villagers, but did not elaborate on the reasons. Why would a dignified supervisor and an aristocratic family do this to the villagers? Moreover, Liu Shiyu also said that Liu Xuesheng had not gone out recently and had no chance to kill people in Wuxia Village.
There are too many doubts about this case, and there must be some secret hidden behind it. Maybe it was an occupational disease. I became more and more interested in the secret hidden behind this matter. If the truth is not revealed, I am afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life. "
Lin Zhiruo bit her lip, frowned and said, "I've been with Master for so long, but I can only see the surface when things happen. It's really useless."
He opened his mouth and smiled, comforting: "You are still young, don't worry. When I was your age, I might not be as good as you."
Lin Zhiruo suddenly realized something and said: "The cause of this incident is the massacre of Wuxia Village. Wuxia Village is remote and isolated from the world, why was it brutally massacred? And was it the result of the joint efforts of Jiang Jingwei and Liu Xuesheng? Kill? Maybe we can investigate Wuxia Village and see if we can find any useful clues."
Zhang Kaidong nodded approvingly: "Look, haven't you found the clue now? My teacher has always believed in you, so don't belittle yourself!"
……
Early the next morning, Ye Qingchen came to Dawu Peak again.
From the appearance, this mountain peak has a rather strange shape. The upper part is full of steep and steep weathered stone walls, which are bare and visible at a glance. It doesn't look like there are treasures or mines. If there were any treasures in the lower part, they would have been searched for by the nearby villagers.
The only place that is questionable is the huge cave located on the cliff. The last time Ye Qingchen met Qing Xuanzi after entering the cave, he didn't have time to search. This time he planned to go in and have a closer look.
Entering the cave entrance, he immediately mobilized his spiritual consciousness to investigate in case someone was ambushing inside. After confirming that there was no danger, he pulled out the Dragon Song Sword and injected spiritual power into it.
The sword body was inspired by spiritual power to emit a dazzling light, illuminating the cave.
On the ground, stones dropped from the last fierce battle were scattered everywhere, stacked in large and small piles, looking messy.
He leaned against the right side of the cave wall and moved forward carefully, one step deeper and one shallower. His eyes glanced around, for fear of missing any useful information.
After turning a corner, we came to the place where Qing Xuanzi hid and meditated last time.
Only then did Ye Qingchen realize that this place was like a transfer station for the entire cave. There were actually two half-man-high cave entrances connected to the inside of the mountain. He leaned forward and looked in, and saw that the two small caves were extremely deep, and he didn't know how far they went into the mountain.
"My dear, it's connected in all directions, it's like a large ant nest." Ye Qingchen was secretly surprised.
At this time, he suddenly discovered a problem. The stone walls of the cave were flat and smooth. They did not look like natural formations at all, but rather seemed to be artificially excavated and chiseled.
Could it be that this is a man-made cave?
If that's the case, then there must be a secret in this cave. Otherwise why do such a thankless task in such a steep and dangerous place?
Moreover, being able to build a cave in such a place must not be something that mere mortals can do.
Could this be a place used by ancient immortals or demons to store treasures?
However, Ye Qingchen immediately rejected his idea.
If there really is a ready-made treasure in the cave, since the prince's people have already discovered its existence, they can just take it away. Why go through so much trouble and have to let the villagers relocate?
It seems that things are not that simple.
He was about to go deep into the small cave on the inside of the mountain to find out what was going on, when he suddenly heard movement coming from the entrance of the cave outside.
Ye Qingchen keenly put away the light of the Dragon Sword and put on the cloak of concealment.
He secretly probed and observed, and sure enough he found two people floating towards the entrance of the cave.
