The brothers Kong Wenmin and Kong Wenjie had also seen Meiya wearing this pendant. When they first arrived in Ningguta, they saw Jiang Jinwan trying to snatch the pendant from Meiya. Naturally, when Kong Wenjie saw it this time, he recognized it at a glance.
"You just said that you found it from Jiang Jinwan's body?" Zhong Mingwei looked at the white jade Guanyin in his hand and asked Kong Wenjie, "Is Jiang Jinwan dead?"
"Yes, when I arrived, Jiang Jinwan was about to kill Mr. Gu. I was so shocked and angry that I killed Jiang Jinwan on the spot, and wanted to kill all his followers as well. Later, Cheng Yin stopped me and left him alive," Kong Wenjie said with a fist. "Thinking back on it, Jiang Jinwan was able to come back to life and return to Ningguta without making a sound. He must have someone backing him up. I should have kept him and interrogated him carefully, but I was so impulsive at the time that I didn't take so much into consideration. Please forgive me, sir!"
"It's not your fault. If it were me, I would kill him without hesitation. Besides, you left him alive, right? Maybe Lord Fang has already gotten the result from the torture," Zhong Mingwei said in a deep voice. He added, "Maybe in a few days, we will get the result."
Pang Yi gnashed his teeth and said, "Who on earth dared to break into Nanshan Villa and commit murder? Everyone knows that Nanshan Villa is the residence of the master and the mistress? Who on earth dared to attack the first-rank An Junwang and his wife?! They are so bold!"
"Aren't there many people who are so bold and daring these days?" Zhong Mingwei said coldly, "Didn't someone openly commit murder in the palace and kill the fourth prince? How could a mere Nanshan Villa in Ningguta deter anyone?"
Pang Yi was startled, then looked at Zhong Mingwei: "Master, who do you think is going to attack Nanshan Villa?"
"Of course he is from the capital," Zhong Mingwei said slowly, "He was able to rescue Jiang Jinwan from Dai Jingfeng without anyone knowing, so he must be from the capital."
"What Master said is correct," Kong Wenmin also nodded, "and according to the time, it was not long after Master arrived in the capital that Jiang Jinwan set out from the capital to Ningguta. I guess he was following his master's orders and took advantage of Master's absence to go to Ningguta to cause trouble."
"I'm afraid it's not a riot. Jiang Jinwan's identity is most afraid of being investigated, so if he wanted to riot, he would definitely not ask Jiang Jinwan to go," Zhong Mingwei said in a deep voice, stroking the white jade Guanyin in his hand, and said, "It should be that Jiang Jinwan was ordered to investigate something. First, this is what Jiang Jinwan, who came from the Jinyiwei, is best at. Second, Jiang Jinwan is from Ningguta, so there is no one better than Jiang Jinwan for this matter."
"However, as soon as Jiang Jinwan arrived in Ningguta, he threw his master's instructions behind his back and only thought about how to avenge his dead brother," Pang Yi said coldly, "Then he found out the situation of Nanshan Villa and knew that there was only a weak pregnant woman and three elderly people in Nanshan Villa. That's why he went to Nanshan Villa for revenge at night. Seeing him torturing and killing several elderly people, we can guess what he was thinking. He must have been suppressed for a long time and finally got the chance, so he acted so pervertedly."
Kong Wenjie looked even more guilty, and lowered his head and said, "It's all my fault. I should have stayed at Nanshan Villa all the time..."
"Your duty is not to guard the Nanshan Villa," Zhong Mingwei stood up and walked to Kong Wenjie, gently patted his shoulder, and said, "On the contrary, you arrived in time. If you had arrived an hour later, the consequences would be disastrous, and... we are afraid that we can't catch the murderer now."
Kong Wenmin asked, "Sir, can you guess who is the master behind Jiang Jinwan?"
