Chapter 73 The real murderer
That man was the son of Prince Ding and a low-ranking slave.
Originally, the child and his mother, the servant girl from Prince Ding's mansion, actually lived on the farm.
But later, I wanted to return to Prince Ding, so I left my child behind and followed Prince Ding back to the palace.
He was left there like that, living a life worse than that of a servant!
"That must be him!" Song Wu blurted out, "He resents Prince Ding's Mansion, but he also learned a lot of skills in the Divine Machine Sect. He must have done something like this!"
Jiang Xing also agreed with Song Wu's opinion: "Isn't that Left Protector very powerful?"
Nanny Yu looked far away. "Left Protector is the disciple with the highest level of profound skills besides the Sect Master's bloodline. His magical power is even greater than mine in the past!"
Song Wu exclaimed: "So amazing?!"
No wonder!
No wonder he could cast such a powerful spell.
Jiang Xing asked, "But if he casts a curse, then won't he be childless?"
Nanny Yu sighed, "I don't know about that. When he first arrived at Shenji Gate, he would go down the mountain every year to visit the manor to see if Prince Ding's Mansion was looking for him. Unfortunately, he was disappointed every year. In the fourth year, it was said that the manor was converted into a summer resort for Princess Changyang!"
Song Wu's thoughts instantly clicked together: "I heard from Lord Shen that Princess Changyang has always been pampered by the old prince. He is said to be his jewel in the crown! And this bastard is so disliked. He must be feeling lost and jealous!"
She asked again, "What happened next?"
"Later, he fell in love with your mother, Yun Xun. But your mother married someone else, so he left. Your mother wanted to kill him until her death!"
Song Wu didn't expect there was such a secret, and asked hurriedly: "Where did he go? Why do you want to kill him now?
Nanny Yu's expression suddenly became hateful and ferocious: "I don't know where he went. I only know that he killed your father and indirectly harmed your mother!"
These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly draining all the color from Song Wu's face.
Jiang Xing hurried to her side and supported her.
Song Wu felt warmth on his wrist, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
She finally understood the horrified reactions of the parties involved when she told them some key information at the Anguo Mansion and the Shen family.
It's no different for me!
Jiang Xing looked at her worriedly. Song Wu asked again, "How did he harm my father and mother?"
Suddenly realizing she had let something slip, Yu Mama's eyes evaded, her rims reddening as she replied, "Before her death, your mother made me swear not to tell anyone about this, and not to bring hatred upon you..."
"Mammy, that man attacked the prince and the Shen family. I wouldn't sit idly by. If you don't tell me the truth, I'm afraid I won't even know why I was killed!"
Nanny Yu was very conflicted.
Jiang Xing realized the seriousness of the matter: "He was able to massacre the people in Prince Ding's Mansion, decide the career of the young master of the Shen family, and set up a killing trap in Prince Jin's Mansion. This person probably has great power now. If we can't prevent it, I'm afraid it will lead to even greater disasters!"
Song Wu never expected that the affairs of his Shenji Sect would be so closely linked to the court.
I'm afraid the alliance with Jiang Xing will become more and more involved!
Nanny Yu was persuaded by Jiang Xing and Song Wu and finally decided to tell the story.
"He and your mother had a childhood affection for each other, but he developed other feelings for her. Seeing your mother marry your father, he couldn't bear it, so he used mystical magic to kill your father. After killing him, he couldn't face your mother's anger, so he chose to flee!"
"But the Sect Master was already pregnant at the time, and she wanted to end things, so I accompanied her to lure that man out. It was that time that he also cast a curse on me, causing me to lose all my mystical skills and injuring the tendons in my hands and feet!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought Chuchu to look for you. It took me more than ten years to walk all the way from Longchuan to the capital, stopping and starting, working to raise money while recuperating and treating my legs and feet..."
Song Wu understood: "What's his name?"
"Yuanfeng!" Nanny Yu's eyes shone with hatred: "Jiang Yuanfeng!"
Jiang Xing searched his mind for a long time, "But there is no one named Jiang Yuanfeng in the court!"
Song Wu stared into the distance. "He's done so many evil things, he certainly won't use his real name! I can only take Madam to identify him when I get the chance!"
"Young lady," Nanny Yu pulled her back worriedly, "but the Sect Master doesn't want you to seek revenge, nor does he want you to do anything. He only hopes that you grow up safely and happily, and then pass on the sect to the next generation..."
Song Wu smiled bitterly: "At the moment, I don't even know who this person is. I can only complete my mission first!"
Her eyes gradually turned cold. "But there's no need to rush. There are still so many things to save lives and save souls in the future. Maybe I'll meet him someday!"
Jiang Xing's fingers tapped the tabletop lightly. "I think I can narrow him down to a certain size."
Song Wu: "Where?"
"Ministry of Personnel!" Jiang Xing's gaze drifted off into the distance. "Only someone from the Ministry of Personnel could easily interfere with the careers of Shen Ting'an and Young Master Shen!"
Song Wu: "But does an official from the Ministry of Personnel have the power to influence the Emperor's decision?"
Jiang Xing's eyes were firm: "My royal brother is suspicious, nothing is impossible!"
He turned and looked at Song Wu: "From now on, whenever you meet someone from the Ministry of Personnel, remember to be more careful!"
At this time, in a four-courtyard house in Xianyifang.
Amidst the singing and dancing, an adult suddenly lifted up the beautiful woman in front of him and said, "Jiang Xing is not only not dead, but he is actually getting better?!"
The servant-like figure beside him immediately lowered his head. "They say he even went to the palace to pay his respects. Even if he's not dead, it's said his life was hanging by a thread. How could he be so well now? Is there someone secretly helping him?"
The man's eyes turned cold. "Go check! See if Prince Jin's Mansion has invited anyone who knows the mystical arts in the past few days!"
The next day.
After Jiang Xing finished his breakfast, the doorman came to report that Lord Shen wanted to see him.
"Master Shen?"
Jiang Xing was stunned for a moment, "Please come in!"
When he actually saw the person, he clenched his fists instantly.
He thought that Lord Shen was Shen Ting'an, but he didn't expect that the person who actually came was Shen Yuanci!
Shen Yuanci was extremely polite when he saw Jiang Xing: "Greetings to the prince!"
"It's Master Shen!" Jiang Xing said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes: "What's the important matter that brought Master Shen to visit?"
Shen Yuanci smiled and said, "Today I have specially prepared a small gift to thank the princess for saving my life!"
Jiang Xing: "Didn't we express our gratitude yesterday? Why would Mr. Shen need to make another special trip? It's so troublesome!"
"No trouble, no trouble!" Shen Yuanci's eyes were bright. "Yesterday it was a thank-you gift from the mansion, and today it's my own gift!"
He looked towards the inner courtyard of the palace and asked, "Excuse me, is the princess at home today?"
In fact, he wanted to ask to see the princess directly, but because he was a foreigner, it would be unreasonable for him not to meet Prince Jin first.
"Her!" Jiang Xing laughed heartily. "Lord Shen, I'm sorry to see you laughing! She insisted on talking to me for a long time last night, and she hasn't even gotten out of bed yet! What a lazy little cat!"
Shen Yuanci stood there somewhat awkwardly.
After a while, he bowed and said, "Then I'll ask Your Majesty to pass this Red Lotus Emperor Sand Pendant to the Princess! Yuanci thanks the Princess for her kindness!"
Jiang Xing nodded, "It's a great favor indeed, but it's just love. My beloved concubine has always been unable to bear the suffering of others and has always been compassionate to all living beings. It's just her good intentions!"
