Jing Yuchen felt frustrated and left Ni Yueshan's side.
He opened his folding fan and fanned himself violently, as if to cool down his anger.
"I checked all the cases that Shao Lecheng committed in the capital. The women he picked up were all from the poor, and the people he stole were all from the royal family."
Ni Yueshan was stunned: "Why? Girls from poor families are more attractive?"
"Do you think he's a womanizer?"
Ni Yueshan thought about it carefully and said, "Not like it!"
"Yes, after investigation, this prince feels that there is definitely something fishy about Shao Lecheng! Picking flowers is not easy!"
Ni Yueshan frowned, "The poor and the nobles seem to be two extremes..."
The two of them stopped their carriage outside an alley. They got off the carriage, and Jing Yuchen took Ni Yueshan and walked into the alley.
Ni Yueshan followed behind him, arms folded across her chest: "Are we here to visit the victim's home?"
"right!"
Outside a thatched hut, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen heard the heart-wrenching coughing coming from inside before they even pushed the door open.
The two looked at each other and walked inside.
The thatched house was very low and the room was crooked. Although it was daytime, it was very dark inside. It seemed that they were reluctant to light a candle. The room was also filled with the smell of herbs.
"Hello, we're looking for someone!"
The people in the room heard the voices and walked outside. They saw Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen, both dressed in gorgeous clothes and with extraordinary demeanor, standing at the door of the thatched hut, looking out of place.
The woman frowned: "Who are you looking for?"
The woman was thin and small, with dry and yellow hair. She looked at the two of them warily with her eyes and held a broken porcelain bowl in her hand.
The coughing sound was still heard in the room, and it was obvious that the patient was not the little girl.
"You are Miss Zhang Le, right?"
Jing Yuchen uttered her name, and Zhang Le frowned: "Who are you looking for?"
Ni Yueshan said gently, "Miss Zhang, we have no ill intentions. We just want to help you."
Zhang Le looked surprised: "I don't know you!"
The coughing inside the house stopped, and a puzzled voice asked, "Le Le, who's here?"
"Grandpa is fine, I just came here to ask for directions!"
After responding, she looked at Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen warily: "My grandpa needs care, what do you want to say? Hurry up!"
"Don't be nervous, Miss Zhang. We are here for the flower thief, Master Shao." Ni Yueshan explained her purpose. The other party's face changed instantly. She frowned and said unhappily, "Sorry, I don't want to talk about this!"
Then he wanted to reach out and close the door.
Ni Yueshan said confidently, "If you tell us the whole story, I can give you all the money I need to treat your grandfather's illness!"
Zhang Le looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise. All the subsequent silver...
Zhang Le tightly grasped the broken bowl in her hand. She was hesitant and did not agree immediately.
Jing Yuchen squinted his eyes and said, "I seem to smell the scent of mushrooms, and a bit of earth. If I'm not mistaken, there is Ganoderma lucidum in the room!"
Zhang Le stared in surprise: "You, what does it have to do with you? Just go away!"
She suddenly became excited and reached out to push the two of them out.
Jing Yuchen curled his lips and looked at her with scrutiny: "Poor families patch up their clothes when they are torn, but they just can't bear to throw them away. How can such a family afford to buy Ganoderma lucidum? Where does the money come from?"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen in astonishment. She only felt that it smelled like a bunch of medicine, but Jing Yuchen could distinguish them so finely.
"You, what does it have to do with you? Just go away!"
Zhang Le became anxious and reached out to push the two of them.
Jing Yuchen curled his lips indifferently: "Sit down and talk to us, otherwise I will arrest you and send you to Shuntian Prefecture, accusing you of stealing!"
Zhang Le's face turned pale. "I didn't! You're slandering me!"
"If you don't want to be caught, then just cooperate."
Jing Yuchen seemed to have little patience and his voice was cold.
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen in astonishment. This little girl looked so pitiful, yet she actually threatened her...
However, Jing Yuchen's words seemed to be quite effective!
Ni Yueshan crossed his arms and said, "Don't refuse a toast and drink a penalty. Come with us and explain yourself. Otherwise, you will be arrested. Your grandfather is seriously ill in the house. Even if there is medicine, he may not be able to take it. You will just wait to die!"
Ni Yueshan was so sensible that Jing Yuchen looked at him with admiration.
Finally, Zhang Le didn't dare to refuse the conversation anymore, so she walked out of the room with the two of them. The three of them went to the shabby kitchen. She looked at them warily: "What on earth do you want to do?"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen. Jing Yuchen had read the file, so he knew more about the matter than she did. Ni Yueshan was waiting for him to speak on his own initiative.
"The flower thief has made you lose your innocence. How do you want him to die?"
Zhang Le looked at Jing Yuchen in surprise with his black and white eyes.
She lowered her head, bit her lip, and said nothing.
Ni Yueshan felt strange. Logically, she should have responded quickly to make Shao Lecheng suffer a fate worse than death...
"How about being torn apart by five horses?" Jing Yuchen asked.
Zhang Le raised his head and shook his head vigorously.
Jing Yuchen raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Then pull out the tendons and peel off the skin?"
Zhang Le still shook his head.
Ni Yueshan interrupted: "Castrate him!"
Zhang Le quickly shook his head frantically.
Jing Yuchen couldn't help but glance at Ni Yueshan and squeezed his legs together.
Ni Yueshan: "...Then what do you think is the best way to deal with it?"
