Fleeing From Famine, My Entire Family Was Reborn

In their previous lives, Su Yin, her mother, and her sister-in-law were brutally mu*dered by a mob. In a twist of fate, all three were reborn together.

Before the mob could reach their villag...

Chapter 447 The Murderer of the Marquis

Before the neighbors asked about their parents, Su Yin and Su Xinguang tacitly told their neighbors the reason in advance to avoid them thinking too much.

Why doesn't the head of the family come out to entertain the guests, but instead lets the younger generation in the family do the entertaining?

Because of the arrival of these guests, Wang Ma, Zhang Ma, Mo Yu and others became busy.

In the evening, two tables were set up to entertain the neighbors, and everyone did not leave until the sun set.

Su Yin pinched her sore shoulders. Xiang Ling noticed it and immediately put down her work and came over to massage her shoulders.

"Xiangling, let's go to the market tomorrow to buy some gifts for our friends."

I wasn't at home before, so no one was walking around.

Now that I'm home, I naturally have to return the gift.

Secondly, I have to visit my uncle and also go to Lijia Village.

Xiangling smiled and said, "Miss, Aunt Wang bought these things before the New Year. Aunt Wang said that if they are not suitable, we can buy other ones. Miss, do you want to take a look?"

"I trust Wang Ma to do things."

Wang Ma is absolutely capable of handling matters properly. There are certain rules to follow when it comes to giving gifts that suit the relationship.

The next morning, after breakfast, Aunt Wang had already prepared the gifts for the uncles. Su Yin looked at the gifts and was very satisfied.

Having a capable person at home can really save them a lot of complicated things.

In the next three days, Su Yin took Su Xinguang to visit relatives and friends.

At the same time, the dignitaries in the capital were unusually lively.

The death of Shunyi Hou did not end the story with his death, but was precisely the beginning.

The atmosphere in Prince Jing's mansion was suffocatingly tense.

“Damn it! Damn it!”

Song Yunhe's face turned pale and veins bulged on his forehead. He couldn't suppress his inner anger and swept the items on the desk to the ground, smashing them to pieces.

Everyone in the room was trembling with fear, and they lowered their heads and dared not speak, for fear of angering the prince. Only Eunuch Hong had a calm expression, as if he didn't care about all this.

Song Yunhe narrowed his eyes slightly, with anger and anxiety flashing in his eyes. His gaze slowly swept over everyone present, finally stopping on Eunuch Hong.

"Tell me everything! How should we deal with it now?" His voice was low and cold.

Now, Qin Wang Song Zhaoling was like a mad vicious dog, biting him tightly and not letting go; and Yun Wang Song Tianqi was even more of a fool, actually following Qin Wang to make trouble. Only the incompetent Wu Wang hadn't made a move yet, but who knew if he would suddenly jump out and bite him?

Faced with such a predicament, Song Yunhe was filled with anger.

He knew very well that if he could not find a solution to the problem, the consequences would be disastrous.

The counselors standing below all lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Speak!" Song Yunhe's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, which showed how angry he was.

One of the counselors bravely said, "Your Majesty, the only way to break this situation now is to find the real murderer."

"Then tell me how to find it?"

After considering it for a while, the counselor said, "We don't need a real murderer. We just need to give a murderer to His Majesty and the officials in the court."

Seeing that the prince did not stop, the counselor suddenly gained confidence and continued, "I have a candidate who best fits the murderer. That person is Madam Heng Youyi."

Song Yunhe raised his eyebrows, and had some ideas in his mind, "Reasons."

The counselor said calmly, "The reason is simple, a murder of passion! The Marquis' wife turned her love into hatred, so she killed the Marquis."

"As far as I know, the Marquis of Shunyi doesn't like his wife, but he likes Miss Xu. We can start from this aspect. Heng Youyi admires the Marquis and designed to marry the Marquis of Shunyi, which made it impossible for the Marquis of Shunyi to stay with his beloved."

"Marquis Shunyi wanted to divorce Heng Youyi and marry Xu Lanzhi instead. Heng Youyi turned love into hatred, and first sent someone to kill Xu Lanzhi, and then killed Marquis Shunyi."

"This way, everyone's attention can be focused on the love affairs of Shunyi Hou. This can solve the prince's current troubles."

The strategist proudly told his plan, completely unaware of the sneer on Eunuch Hong's lips.

This idiot!

Suddenly, a pen holder flew towards the opponent's cheek. The strategist subconsciously wanted to dodge it, but he managed to hold it back and was hit hard. Blood immediately flowed from his forehead.

Song Yunhe was really amused by the person in front of him. He laughed out loud, "It would be a waste of your talent if you don't go tell stories."

The counselor was so frightened that he knelt down with a thump, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Song Yunhe looked at Eunuch Hong with a gloomy expression, "Eunuch Hong, are you mute today?"

Eunuch Hong stepped forward and bowed, "Your Highness, I just received news from the Dark Chamber."

"Dark Chamber?" Song Yunhe raised his eyebrows.

Eunuch Hong said calmly, "After the mysterious death of Shunyi Marquis, I immediately found the Dark Pavilion and offered ten thousand taels of gold to buy information about the murderer of Shunyi Marquis. Today, the Dark Pavilion gave me the news."

Eunuch Hong was a smart man. Before Song Yunhe could question him, he explained, "I didn't dare to tell the prince before. I was afraid that the secret cabinet would not be able to find out and I would have to wait in vain."

Song Yunhe doesn’t care about those things now. What he cares most about is who killed Marquis Shunyi.

He asked anxiously, "Who is it?"

Eunuch Hong handed a coded note to Song Yunhe and said, "The one who killed Shunyi Hou was the King of Qin."

The other counselors widened their eyes in shock, all of them showing disbelief.

One of the counselors could not help but speak up, "How could it be the King of Qin? Shunyi Hou is the King of Qin's man, how could the King of Qin kill him?"

These words expressed the thoughts of several other counselors.

There were some things that these advisers were not clear about, but as Prince Jing's confidant, he naturally knew them.

As early as a month ago, Shunyi Hou had surrendered to Prince Jing, and he provided Prince Jing with many secrets about the King of Qin. Relying on his information, the prince attacked several secret industries and intelligence offices of the King of Qin.

This is also one of the reasons why the King of Qin insisted on holding on to the prince after the death of Marquis Shunyi and the prince was implicated.

Eunuch Hong said slowly, "Your Highness, the Marquis of Shunyi was killed by the King of Qin, and the crime was pinned on us. I think the King of Qin must have known that the Marquis of Shunyi had surrendered to us."

"He killed the traitor Shunyi Hou and used him to deal with the prince. This was truly vicious." Eunuch Hong commented calmly.

Several counselors nearby pieced together the truth from Eunuch Hong's words and opened their eyes wide again.

It turns out that Marquis Shunyi is on their side.

There is no doubt that the person who killed Shunyi Marquis must be the King of Qin.

If the prince really listened to the previous person's suggestion, I'm afraid the King of Qin would laugh to death, and might even go with the flow and continue to set traps for their prince.

By that time, they will be covered in shit and can't be washed clean.
