After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

"Afterwards, I became cautious and sent someone to guard outside the Zhao Mansion to keep an eye on the movements of the people in the mansion.

At the same time, people were sent to conduct secret investigations everywhere.

After this investigation, I learned that Zhao Ye, who everyone thought was missing, had already been found by Zhao Yong. "

Hearing Jiang Yueming speak so confidently and without any sign of nonsense, Qian Youcai's eyelids jumped, and he immediately realized that something was wrong, and suddenly turned to look at Zhao Yong.

But Zhao Yong saw sweat on his forehead, his expression was stiff, and his lips were trembling. Qian Youcai's face was tense, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Did he really find Zhao Ye?

Then why did they lie to him and say that Zhao Ye's whereabouts were unknown?

Qian Youcai's heart was pounding, his lips moved slightly, and he wanted to say something, but found that he could not make a sound.

In the center of the hall, Jiang Yueming continued, "It turns out that the Zhao family found Zhao Ye less than a month after he disappeared, but at that time he had been turned into a bear monster by the kidnappers..."

Because Fu Yutang had given a "popular science" explanation to all the civil and military officials in the court, everyone present was familiar with the term "bear monster".

Thinking of the cruel process of making the bear monster, there was a burst of gasps in the hall.

At the same time, some people with quick brains reacted immediately and looked at Zhao Yong with a little more scrutiny in their eyes.

The eldest son who was highly expected was turned into a bear monster, but he repeatedly pleaded for the kidnapper in the court and stopped the new law. Is there anything wrong with this man?

Noticing everyone's inquiring gazes, Zhao Yong's face turned even paler and his whole body was shaking.

Seeing this scene, there was nothing that the civil and military officials in the court could not understand.

It seems that what Jiang Yueming said is true.

Feng Xingjun frowned slightly, looked at Zhao Yong again, and side-glanced slightly, motioning Jiang Yueming to continue.

"Perhaps because he felt ashamed, or perhaps because he could not accept that his eldest son had turned into a bear monster, Zhao Yong killed Zhao Ye not long after bringing him back to the mansion. He announced to the public that Zhao Ye had died of illness, and at the same time issued a death order, ordering everyone in the mansion not to spread the news. If anyone leaked the news, they would be beaten to death! If anyone asked, they would still answer that Zhao Ye had been kidnapped and his whereabouts were still unknown."

Having said that, Jiang Yueming paused slightly and looked at Fu Yutang for some unknown reason.

Seeing that her expression was still calm, in stark contrast to the stunned faces of the people around her, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Did the lord... guess what happened to Zhao Ye a long time ago? So, that day, he deliberately told the story of the bear monster in front of Zhao Yong?"

As he was secretly guessing, Fu Yutang noticed his gaze and couldn't help but turn his head slightly to look over.

Jiang Yueming suddenly panicked for no reason, as if he had done something wrong. He looked embarrassed and avoided her sight guiltily.

Closing his eyes and calming himself, Jiang Yueming bowed to Feng Xingjun and continued, "Originally, all of this should have been perfect.

But perhaps because of guilt, or perhaps because of a guilty conscience, after Zhao Ye's death, the old lady of the Zhao family and Zhao Ye's biological mother, Li, set up a tablet for Zhao Ye at Qingshui Temple outside the city and lit a perpetual lamp.

And on the first and fifteenth day of every month, the two ladies would go to Qingshui Temple to worship and recite scriptures in the hope of liberating Zhao Ye's soul.

It was from the actions of the two ladies that I noticed clues. I followed them all the way and overheard their conversation, and only then did I discover the truth behind Zhao Ye's disappearance.

If the emperor does not believe it, you can send someone to invite the two ladies of the Zhao family to come and interrogate them in person."
