Chapter 156 Why is the Emperor so fast?

This night in the capital city is destined to make many people unable to sleep.

As soon as Song Junhe left Sun Mansion, he was called to the palace by the emperor. That night, no one knew what he and the emperor talked about in Wenhua Hall.

Just after daybreak, an imperial decree was read out at the morning court, changing the title of Prince Yu to Prince Su, and granting him the fief of Suzhou. He was to set off for his fiefdom that very day and was not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned.

As soon as the decree was issued, the whole court was filled with joy.

This decree meant that Song Junhe had completely left the vortex of power and from then on could only be a leisurely prince in a remote fiefdom.

What the imperial edict did not mention was that his descendants could not inherit the throne.

His descendants can only be rich and idle people in the future.

Song Junhe's heart was filled with resentment, but the order to protect Lu Xinran was not withdrawn.

If something happened to Lu Xinran, he would be idle and the prince would not be able to do anything.

He was filled with hatred and depression, and his teeth were almost broken when he left the palace.

Lu Xinran, who knew nothing about this, was shocked when he heard the news at noon.

She hadn't even had the chance to take action, so why was Song Junhe driven away to his fiefdom?

Moreover, his title was changed from Prince of Yu to Prince of Su, and his fiefdom was changed from Yuzhou to Suzhou. He was not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned. It seemed that he had been abandoned by the emperor.

But... didn't he just present the beauty to the emperor, and the emperor accepted it with peace of mind?

As a father, how can you turn against your child just by putting on your pants?

Could it be that there was something wrong with those beauties and the emperor was so angry and embarrassed?

She was full of doubts and went to look for Lu Xinlan, but he just opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

"Forget it, Prince Yu, no, now she's Prince Su, she's just asking for trouble, let's just ignore her."

She just put aside the things she couldn't figure out. What she was most concerned about now was the case.

The murderer was so arrogant and his influence was so bad that she would definitely gain a lot of health points once the case was solved.

Lu Xinlan admired her for not seeking to understand everything. If she had thought a little more about everything, she would have discovered something unusual a long time ago.

She didn't know whether this was a character problem of Lu Xinran herself, or whether she would subconsciously ignore these things under the influence of the system.

"Just now, His Highness the Fourth Prince sent a message. There has been no progress in the case of the dismembered corpse, but we got some clues in Yongningfang. Someone saw a black-painted carriage driving into one of the alleys at about 12:00 p.m., and there was blood on the floor of the carriage."

Lu Xinran: “???”

Isn't this... a bit too coincidental?

"The bloodstains we saw in several markets were very shallow. If the temperature in the capital had not suddenly warmed up the day before, there would probably be no traces left. Can we trust the words of the person who gave the clue?"

Lu Xinlan just replied softly: "Whether it is credible or not, we will go and see it later."

When they heard that they could go out again, and use the melon-eating system to earn life points, everyone was very excited.

After lunch, the two left by car.

They arrived at Yongningfang smoothly, and Song Junyan was already waiting there when they arrived.

Next to him was the man who had told the officer about finding the bloodstain.

"This man's name is Wang Qing, and he lives in the alley in front. He said that he went to the market with his family to buy meat and vegetables yesterday. When he came back, he saw a horse-drawn carriage sneaking into the alley in front of him and never coming out again."

When Ding San saw the sisters get off the car, he immediately told them the new clues.

As soon as Lu Xinran got out of the car, her eyes fell on Wang Qing, who had tight eyebrows and triangular eyes, with the corners of his eyes drooping, making his eyes look even smaller.

He was short and plump. Lu Xinran even took a special look at the other person's hands at his sides. His nails were neatly trimmed and there was no sign of fatigue on his hands.

"Sister, ask about this person's family background."

Lu Xinlan nodded slightly and looked at Wang Qing again with a sharp gaze.

"Where is your family? What does your family do for a living?"

"My Lord, my home is in the alley in front of me, and I work as a worker in a woodworking shop."

Be a partner?

Lu Xinran narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Qing again, always feeling that something was strange.

The waiters she had met before were always inclined to bow slightly and look cautious no matter what the time or what the matter was, but the man in front of her clearly did not have this habit.

She knew that she had not studied these things systematically, so she stopped making blind judgments. She probed into the system with her consciousness and prepared to look through Wang Qing's booklet.

As a result, when I entered the word "Wang Qing" in the search box, there was no response at all.

She typed in Song Junyan, and the familiar booklet immediately appeared.

[This guy lied, even his name is fake! ]

The inner voice appeared in the ears of Lu Xinlan and Song Junyan, and both of them looked at Wang Qing with a hint of understanding.

Yesterday in the streets, no traces of blood were found in two of the six markets.

The bloodstains were so faint, how did the person in front of me find them? He even swore that the carriage had entered the alley in front?

"Ding San!"

Song Junyan did not waste time and immediately ordered his men to go to the nearby alleys to ask if anyone knew Wang Qing who provided the clue.

Wang Qing didn't expect these people to act unconventionally and directly ignore the clues he provided and start to doubt his identity.

He glared at Lu Xinran with a sinister look, then immediately retracted his gaze, lowered his head and put on an obedient and honest look.

Ding San led his men to inquire in the alley for nearly half an hour, and when they came back they found out that the man in front of them was indeed named Wang Qing, and his home had always been in this alley.

Lu Xinran found this news very interesting.

She really didn't expect that the murderer had buried so many people here in order to confuse them.

"Sister, how about we ask as well? Maybe we can get a different answer if we ask in a different way."

Lu Xinlan nodded, turned around and waited for Song Junyan's instructions.

Song Junyan nodded slightly at the two sisters: "Together."

Leaving someone here to keep a close eye on Wang Qing, they walked into the alley again.

Lu Xinlan looked at the alley and thought: "Your Highness, if the property in this alley changes its owner, does it need to be registered in Shuntian Mansion?"

Song Junyan raised his eyebrows and immediately understood her intention.

"I will send someone back to the government office to investigate."

"We also need to go to the pawnshops and nearby alleys and ask people if anyone has come to Yongningfang to rent or buy a yard recently, especially if they need an entire alley."

Song Junyan nodded again, he turned his head to look at Ding Si, who immediately clasped his fists and ran out.

Lu Xinran listened to their conversation and felt very proud.

My sister is so awesome!

No matter how those people plot, it will be useless. The sisters can definitely get rid of this paper tiger by joining forces!
