Lin Qingya looked at the trembling assassins in front of her and gently opened her red lips, "Tell me, who ordered you to assassinate the official?" Her tone was calm, but with an irresistible majesty, her eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and she looked directly into the assassins' eyes. The assassins all looked pale, and their original ferocity had long disappeared. Lin Qingya used mind reading, and their thoughts flooded into her mind like a tide: Zhao Sisi, the remaining forces of Li Chengqian, a huge reward, framing Li Rui...

Lin Qingya tapped the table lightly with her fingers, making a faint sound. The study was so quiet that only this faint sound and the sound of rain outside the window could be heard. A sneer appeared on her lips. Zhao Sisi, this woman who looked weak on the surface but was actually ruthless, actually hid so deeply. She even bought the famous "Blood Shadow Building" in the world!

After Lin Qingya sorted out the information she had obtained, she looked at Qiu Shuang beside her and said, "Immediately arrest Zhao Sisi and her accomplices. Remember, bring them alive." Qiu Shuang accepted the order and bowed to leave. She moved quickly and disappeared into the night, leaving only the candlelight still flickering in the study.

Lin Qingya quickly drafted a memorial and sent someone to deliver it to the imperial study overnight. The memorial detailed Zhao Sisi's crimes, including her alliance with Li Chengqian's remaining forces, buying the Blood Shadow Building, intending to frame Li Rui, and attempting to usurp power. The rain gradually subsided, and a hint of light appeared in the sky outside the window.

This time, Li Rui was charged with "murder" and became a wanted criminal by the court. He fled in panic, feeling bitter. He looked back at the once familiar but now unfamiliar Dazhou City, feeling resentful but helpless. He didn't know how Qingya would deal with this, but he knew there must be a conspiracy behind it! He secretly swore in his heart that he would find out the truth no matter what!

Meanwhile, Lin Qingya was scheming in the palace, using Zhao Sisi's desire for power to set a trap. She deliberately spread the news, claiming that she had evidence of Zhao Sisi's affair with Li Chengze, and used this as bait to lure Zhao Sisi into the game. Zhao Sisi was indeed tricked, and was eager to prove her innocence, but fell into Lin Qingya's trap. Before being arrested, Zhao Sisi was full of disbelief, but she knew that everything was beyond redemption. A tear slid down her eye, but it also indicated that her arrogance would be completely extinguished.

Lin Qingya looked at Zhao Sisi being taken away, her eyes calm. She smiled coldly: "Everything has just begun." She turned and walked towards the rising sun outside the window, the golden sunlight shining on her body.

The cold wind blew up the snow, enveloping Li Rui's lonely figure. He was wearing a thin cloak and hurriedly running along the mountain path, looking back from time to time with a worried look. He knew very well that the so-called "conspiracy" charge was false, and there must be a conspiracy behind it, and this conspiracy was directed at Lin Qingya. He tightly grasped a jade pendant in his hand, which was a token given to him by Lin Qingya and his only support at the moment. The mountain road was covered with heavy snow, and the winding mountain road was barely visible in the snow. In the distance, the undulating mountains were covered with snow, and it looked desolate.

Li Rui was panting heavily, hiding behind a cliff, observing the pursuers behind him through the gap. Several black-clad assassins were holding long knives and approaching step by step. "Qingya... who hurt you?" He muttered to himself, his eyes full of reluctance and worry. He recalled every bit of his acquaintance with Lin Qingya, her elegant temperament like orchid, her wise and gentle eyes, but now he could only recall them silently in his heart.

On the other side, Lin Qingya sat in the study, flipping through the intelligence on Li Rui's escape route, her slender fingers tapping the table lightly, making a slight sound. The study was filled with exquisite study supplies, and the bookshelves were filled with various books. The cold winter wind and snow whistled past the window, but it did not affect her inner peace at all. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a confident smile. "Li Chengze, how can you escape like this?" She whispered softly, with a gleam in her eyes and a cold light.

Lin Qingya quickly prepared a memorial and sent her confidant to the imperial study. In the memorial, she claimed to have evidence of collusion between Li Chengze and the remnants of Li Chengqian, and listed a series of Li Chengze's "crimes" in detail, subtly linking Li Chengze with the "conspiracy" incident. At the same time, she secretly sent her confidant to search for evidence in Li Chengze's mansion. After submitting the memorial, Lin Qingya closed her eyes lightly and leaned back in her chair, as if waiting for something. She knew that Li Chengqian and Li Chengze would never sit and wait for death, and a more intense storm was about to come.

At this moment, Li Chengqian was trying to plot against Lin Qingya. He ordered his men to ambush Lin Qingya on the road she had to take on her way home, trying to take her down in one fell swoop and completely get rid of this thorn in his side. However, Li Rui attacked at a critical moment, and he set up an ambush with Ah Man, catching Li Chengqian in one fell swoop. In the dim alley, there were flashes of swords and shadows, and screams came one after another. Ah Man was brave and fearless, and every move he made was a killing move, and he subdued most of the people in a few moments. Li Rui's eyes were firm and his actions were decisive. When confronting Li Chengqian, he showed no mercy and stabbed Li Chengqian directly in the chest.

Finally, Lin Qingya exposed the crimes of Li Chengqian and Li Chengze to the public in front of the emperor, and all the evidence was conclusive. Li Heng was furious and ordered that the two be severely punished. Li Heng looked at Lin Qingya, who had a calm expression, with a complicated look in his eyes. Li Heng sighed softly: "You are really a rough diamond in my eyes."

Lin Qingya bowed slowly to Li Heng and said, "Your Majesty, I bow to you."
