Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 180
[Chapter 180 The Blame]
The next morning, after Lin Xiu had breakfast made by Qin Wan, he went to the wedding residence alone.
The atmosphere on the street was obviously much more tense, even more tense than the last time Huang Tao died. Lin Xiu walked on the road slowly and calmly. Obviously, the Zhang family had received the news of Zhang San’s death. What
surprised him a little was that not long after Zhang San’s death yesterday, the old man discovered something unusual and broke into the
room. But he soon came out and closed the door.
And those guards acted as if nothing had happened.
When it was dawn and the city gates were opened, they left the royal capital as quickly as possible.
As Zhang Jing’s lackeys, they followed Zhang Jing and did all kinds of evil things. Zhang Jing died, but they didn’t even notify the Zhang family and ran faster than anyone else.
In the courtyard of the wedding residence, Lin Xiu unexpectedly saw Zhu Jin.
Zhu Jin was followed by several secret detectives. He stood in the yard and asked Zhao Lingjun carefully, “Miss Zhao, excuse me, where were you last night?”
Zhao Lingjun said, “I was practicing in my room.”
Zhu Jin asked again, “Is there anyone who can testify?”
Zhao Lingjun said, “The maids in the mansion can testify.”
After Zhu Jin questioned several maids, he walked up to Zhao Lingjun and bowed, saying, “Sorry to bother you, Miss Zhao. I’ll take my leave.”
Lin Xiu came over and asked, “Butler Zhu, what happened?”
Zhu Jin explained, “The Zhang family The Third Young Master was assassinated last night. We are following His Majesty’s orders to investigate those who have had conflicts with him these days. We do not suspect Miss Zhao, so please do not blame us. “
Lin Xiu was shocked: “Zhang San is dead?”
Zhu Jin nodded and said, “He was assassinated last night.”
Lin Xiu thought for a while and said, “If you want to talk about conflicts, I had conflicts with him two days ago. I was in…”
Zhu Jin waved his hand and said, “We don’t suspect Mr. Lin. You don’t have to prove yourself. We have to go back to the palace to report. See you later.”
After that, he ignored Lin Xiu and took people away directly.
Lin Xiu glanced at him, the old eunuch who looked down on others. This seemed to be trust, but in fact it was discrimination.
He didn’t believe that he had such strength at all.
Congratulations to him, he ruled out the correct answer at the beginning.
After obtaining the abilities of Zhao Lingjun and Qin Wan, Lin Xiu’s assassination methods have reached the pinnacle and are superb.
A Ke’s invisibility, Ning’er’s flying, Qin Wan’s control consciousness, Zhao Lingjun’s telekinesis, killing an incapable Zhang San, even if he is surrounded by many guards, he will not escape death.
However, his actions last night inevitably brought some trouble to Zhao Lingjun.
But there is no need to worry about this, because Zhang Jing was not killed by her in the first place, and no one can wrongly accuse her. Before
Zhu Jin left, two figures walked in from outside, they were Lin Ting and Zhou Yun.
As soon as Zhou Yun walked into the yard, she quickly came to Zhao Lingjun and asked, “Lingjun, what’s going on? I heard that you want to take a concubine for Xiu’er. Did he force you to do this? Tell me, if he really forced you, I will make the decision for you. If I don’t agree, no one can enter our Lin family…”
Zhao Lingjun explained, “You misunderstood. I am busy practicing on weekdays and have no time to accompany my husband. I am so happy that someone can take care of my husband for me. I want to do this myself, and my husband didn’t know it at first.”
Zhou Yun looked at her in astonishment. From her expression and eyes, there was no reluctance.
She was also stunned.
Is there really such a generous woman in the world?
Lin Ting looked at Zhao Lingjun, then at his wife, and thought to himself that there is a big gap between women.
At this time, Caiyi, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and said, “Sister Zhao, I cooked some porridge…”
Looking at the two figures standing in the yard, Caiyi was slightly stunned. Lin Xiu walked over, took her hand, and took her to her parents, introducing her, “This is my father, and this is my mother.”
Then, he said to Lin Ting and Zhou Yun, “Dad, Mom, this is Caiyi.”
Caiyi hurriedly said, “Meet uncle and aunt.”
When Zhou Yun heard that her son was going to take a concubine, her first reaction was to be angry. After all, her daughter-in-law was so good. If her son didn’t know how to cherish her, she would not favor her own son.
But when she saw Caiyi, she fell in love with this girl at first sight.
She was pretty and had a soft and weak temperament. The call of aunt touched her heart. Zhou Yun couldn’t help but smile, took off a jade bracelet on her hand, put it on her hand, and said with a smile, “This is our first meeting, and I didn’t prepare anything. You keep this bracelet. We will be a family in the future.”
Lin Ting was very surprised. Didn’t they come here to ask for punishment? Why did they even give her a bracelet?
Zhou Yun took off another bracelet and put it on Zhao Lingjun’s hand, saying, “We won’t interfere in your affairs as young people. As long as you live well, we will be satisfied…”
Lin Xiu sighed in his heart. In this matter, Zhao Lingjun’s words were much more useful than his words.
A matter that gave him a headache was solved so easily.
Looking at the three people who were in harmony and happy, Lin Xiu was very pleased.
At this time, in another mansion, the atmosphere was not so harmonious.
A corpse covered with a white cloth was lying on the ground. Several women were crying and several other men were livid.
This was the first time in decades that a member of the Zhang family had been assassinated.
Soon, a figure walked in from outside, walked up to a middle-aged man, and whispered, “Except for the two earth-level personal guards, the rest have been captured.”
Several figures were tied up and brought in, and fell to their knees on the ground with a plop.
A man walked up to them and asked coldly, “Tell me, how was the young master assassinated!”
The guards who failed to escape were pale and said repeatedly, “It’s none of our business, it’s really none of our business. The young master was alone in the room at the time, and the doors and windows were closed. When we went in, the young master had committed suicide…”
The man asked several people in succession, and they all got the same answer.
He waved his hand, and someone dragged the guards away. The guards’ voices of begging for mercy could be heard at first, but after a certain moment, it suddenly became quiet outside.
The man said to the middle-aged man, “The coroner has carefully checked the young master. There is no bruise on his body. The fatal wound is the knife that pierced his chest. From the traces at the scene, the doors and windows of the young master’s room were all sealed before they broke in. All the traces show that the young master committed suicide…”
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Who did it?”
The man shook his head and said, “Killing the young master in a secret room, there are many people who can do this, control objects, telekinesis, and some magicians who can control other people’s thoughts from a distance can do it, but no matter which one, to kill the young master without alerting any guards, the strength of this assassin is at least the upper realm of the earth level, or even higher…”
The middle-aged man pondered and said, “You mean, it’s her?”
The man said, “It shouldn’t be. Although she has this ability and has had conflicts with the young master, it’s too obvious that she took action that night. The first person suspected of the young master’s accident was her, and the Secret Investigation Department has investigated that she did not go out last night…”
The middle-aged man fell silent.
Zhao Lingjun has this ability, but she doesn’t have enough reasons.
Killing people because of a small conflict. His dead son could do such a thing, but Zhao Tianjiao would not.
Or she disdains it.
If she wants to kill Zhang Jing, she doesn’t have to use such means.
The man was silent for a moment, and then said: “I suspect it is the people of Tiandao League. In the past year, they have been very active in the capital. Many children of the rich and powerful have been killed by them. Only they can act so recklessly, and only they can have such strength…”
The middle-aged man said: “No, there are others.”
The man asked: “Master, you mean…”
The middle-aged man whispered: “It’s just a small case. The father and son of the first-class Anhua were killed at will, and three titles were promoted at once. Why do you suddenly want to select a concubine for no reason…”
…
The palace.
Emperor Xia was pacing in a palace. Zhang Jing was assassinated, and even he was shocked. After learning the news, he immediately asked Zhu Jin to investigate in person.
In his impression, this is the first time someone dared to make trouble for the Zhang family.
But he was still very happy in his heart.
I don’t know who did what he wanted to do but couldn’t do.
Soon, Zhu Jin walked in from outside, and Emperor Xia immediately asked, “Have you found the murderer?”
Zhu Jin shook his head and said, “The person who killed Zhang Jing is at least at the upper level of the Earth Rank, and his ability is also very special. He can let Zhang Jing kill himself in the secret room. There are only a handful of people with this ability…”
Emperor Xia asked, “Could it really be Zhao Lingjun?”
Zhu Jin said, “Miss Zhao said it wasn’t her.”
Emperor Xia thought for a moment and said, “It’s indeed too obvious, and it doesn’t fit her character. Although she doesn’t have to take the Zhang family seriously, she won’t kill anyone…”
He thought for a while and asked, “Could it be that Tiandao League again? But I haven’t heard that Tiandao League has such a strong person. If it was them, the playboys in Wangdu would have died long ago, but if it wasn’t them, who else could it be…”
Zhu Jin didn’t speak, and looked at Emperor Xia quietly.
Emperor Xia frowned and said, “What are you looking at me for? Do you suspect it was me…”
As he spoke, he suddenly froze.
In addition to Zhao Lingjun, there is really another person in Wangdu who can kill Zhang Jing silently.
This person is him.
The Secret Investigation Department, the Abnormal Arts Department, and the Worship Department are full of hidden talents. It is very easy to ask them to kill someone.
Emperor Xia’s face darkened, and he slammed the table and said angrily: “Damn it, they won’t suspect that I did it, right?”
I didn’t see it when it was updated in the early morning. Thanks to the leader “Drink More Magma i” for the reward.
