Chapter 77 Beautiful and Vicious

It has been confirmed that the words left by Doctor Feng under the table are indeed "Xia", but I don't know who this "Xia" refers to?

Is it Xia Chengxun or Xia Yunxi? Or is it both?

Su Xing continued to speculate along this line of thought, and believed that Doctor Feng was most likely killed because of the Wuxin incident.

It is obvious that Doctor Feng did not make a wrong judgment due to his poor medical skills, but lied about Wuxin's physical condition, and he was instructed by someone to do so.

After Wu Xin escaped, the person behind the scenes was afraid that Doctor Feng would be caught and betrayed, so he sent someone to kill Doctor Feng.

It turned out that when Doctor Feng was killed, he secretly left a clue under the table, which meant that the person behind the scenes was related to "Xia".

However, Xia Chengxun had already been arrested. How did he know about Wuxin's affairs and how did he order people to kill Doctor Feng?

Is that Xia Yunxi? Xia Yunxi is indeed suspected of treason at the moment.

However, the scene in the palace just now was still fresh in Su Xing's memory.

Even though he was a single man with little emotional experience, he could tell that Xia Yunxi still had feelings for Ye Linghan.

The so-called important matter to discuss was actually to confirm whether Ye Linghan was going to marry Luo Linger.

In this case, will Xia Yunxi still rebel? After all, he is the man I love...

The more Su Xing thought about it, the more confused he became. He wanted to discuss it with Ye Linghan, but there were some things he couldn't say.

Coupled with the various events that had happened to them recently, he didn't know how to face Ye Linghan.

On the way back to the palace, the car was extremely quiet. Su Xing continued to ponder the case alone, while Ye Linghan closed his eyes in deep thought. It was quite harmonious.

After entering the palace gate, Ye Linghan did not go towards the study, but walked towards the palace prison.

Su Xing was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was going to find Xia Chengxun.

Ye Linghan wants to interrogate Xia Chengxun? Just based on the word "Xia"?

Su Xing always felt that it was far-fetched. After struggling for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Prince Regent, do you think that the death of Doctor Feng was related to Xia Chengxun?"

Ye Linghan stopped and looked back at Su Xing, his expression still as cold as usual.

He did not answer, but asked Su Xing: "What do you think?"

Su Xing didn't expect Ye Linghan to ask him in return, and the confusion he encountered when he was speculating just now emerged again.

Although he was confused, he still answered truthfully: "I think it will be difficult for Xia Chengxun to do it."

Putting aside the question of whether Xia Chengxun has the ability to predict the future, the prison cell in the Regent's Palace is no different from any other place, and it is impossible for him to pass any information from inside the cell to the outside.

Ye Linghan didn't say anything else, but a mocking look appeared in his eyes, as if saying: Since you know he can't do it, why do you still ask such a stupid question?

Su Xingjun's face froze. He felt depressed and wanted to yell at Ye Linghan: Then why did you go to find Xia Chengxun?

It's a pity that he doesn't have the courage...

Su Xing hadn't been to the Regent's Palace for several days, and when he arrived he saw the palace's prison. He couldn't help but shiver.

Before he could get used to the dark and damp environment in the cell, Ye Linghan asked Xia Chengxun coldly, "Did you instruct the housekeeper to kidnap Li Si?"

Not only Su Xing, but even Xia Chengxun did not expect Ye Linghan to suddenly ask this question. After all, that incident happened a long time ago and the people involved were all dead.

Xia Chengxun was stunned for a moment, then he nodded as if he suddenly remembered something, and replied uneasily: "Replying to the Regent, it was done by me..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly added: "But I am also following the orders of Marquis Mu Yuan..."

"Why?" Ye Linghan's thin lips uttered three words lightly. His voice was not loud and his tone was casual, but it made people feel as if they were suppressed and dared not move.

Xia Chengxun lowered his head quickly: "Because... that person has superb autopsy skills, and Mu Yuanhou thinks he is a trouble..."

"Did you give the order to the butler personally?" Ye Linghan asked again.

Xia Chengxun nodded firmly: "Replying to the Regent, yes."

"What was your order at that time?" Ye Linghan asked quickly, not giving Mu Yuanhou a chance to pause.

Xia Chengxun was slightly stunned, and paused for a while before speaking, but his tone was not as firm as before: "I said that there is a new coroner in the Ministry of Justice, and asked him to find a way to get rid of him..."

"Gone?" Ye Linghan stared at Xia Chengxun with his bottomless eyes.

Xia Chengxun hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he was afraid or guilty, before nodding uncertainly: "No more..."

Su Xing understood clearly that the person who gave the order was not Xia Chengxun at all. No one even knew who he was. The order he gave was so vague, which was very different from the master described by the masked man when he was kidnapped.

It couldn't be Marquis Mu Yuan either, because with Li Si's identity, it was impossible for him to know about Xia Chengxun and Marquis Mu Yuan's rebellion, and the master he was talking about couldn't be related to Marquis Mu Yuan.

Then there is only one person, Xia Yunxi.

Unlike the last suspicion, this time it was directly confirmed that the person who wanted to kill him was Xia Yunxi.

Su Xing didn't know how to describe his feelings. Besides fear, he also felt shock and other indescribable emotions.

Such a beautiful woman who seems weak and helpless actually has such a horrible and vicious mind.

It seems that all the doubts he had in the carriage can be cleared up. Xia Yunxi is a member of the rebellion, and the clues left by Doctor Feng also point to her.

No wonder Ye Linghan came to interrogate Xia Chengxun. Although there is no definite evidence to prove that Xia Yunxi was plotting a rebellion, all clues point to Xia Yunxi.

In this way, as long as evidence is found, the case can be closed.

Marquis Mu Yuan was a man who could bend and stretch himself. After escaping from the Xia Mansion, he pretended to be a beggar and a refugee. He finally passed through layers of blockades and left the imperial city.

He was standing on a wasteland outside the imperial city. Although he was in a mess and had a dirty face, he had a calm and composed look.

The guard next to him was also dressed like a beggar, but his face looked extremely anxious.

He wanted to say something several times, but stopped at the last moment.

After hesitating for an unknown amount of time, he couldn't help but speak: "My Lord, where shall we go next?"

They absolutely cannot stay in Ye Country, so where else can they go?

Marquis Mu Yuan slowly withdrew his thoughts, raised his eyes and looked in a certain direction, and suddenly smiled sinisterly: "Yan State."

"Yan State?" The guard opened his eyes wide in surprise, his eyes full of confusion: "Why... go to Yan State?"

In what capacity did they go?

The Night Country will soon send out wanted warrants to several other countries, and maybe they have already sent them out. No matter where they go, they will be trapped.

But he didn't dare say these, for fear of angering Marquis Mu Yuan.

But he was not worried, because Marquis Mu Yuan was a thousand times smarter than him and it was impossible for him not to have thought of it.

"I know what you are worried about." Marquis Mu Yuan suddenly turned to look at the guard, his expression smug: "Don't worry, I have my own judgment."

The guard lowered his eyes in fear, but there was no sign of relief in his eyes.

"Well, don't worry. Since you have been loyal all the way..." Marquis Mu Yuan said meaningfully, "When I achieve great things, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
