Chapter 426 [Your Dad]
Butler Liu slumped to his knees and said, "Princess, please spare me. I really don't know how Jiang Lihua and her husband escaped with so many cats."
The leader of the palace guards said tremblingly, "According to our palace guards' investigation, we infer that the three missing people disappeared before the siege of Haikui City."
"Useless! How do you do things?"
Sheng Yin angrily swept everything on the table to the ground. "So you only discovered they were missing after such a long time, and you didn't notify this princess in time?"
The guard's voice grew fainter as he replied, "It's mainly because Manager Jiang's cat room shouldn't be searched too many times. It's easy to disturb the cat, and if the cat causes any problems, we'll be held responsible..."
In the past, a palace guard disturbed the princess's cat and was directly dragged into the water dungeon and locked up. Moreover, Manager Jiang and his wife were very friendly to these palace guards, and they looked cowardly and posed no threat.
Manager Liu suddenly remembered something and quickly added, "Your Highness, I just remembered that Master Su has been to the Cat's Room three or five times to watch Dark Clouds Stepping on Snow..."
"Now it seems that these three people seem to be in the same group."
Sheng Yin was so angry that she was in high spirits. "So what's the point of saying this now? Everyone has run away!"
At this moment, the scene of her first meeting Su Rui and Jiang Lili holding Wuyun Taxue and choosing a male lover with her emerged in her mind, and everything connected together.
Sheng Yin clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white. "You're so good, Jiang Lihua! You've deceived this princess so badly!"
I remembered what Manager Liu said about Jiang Lihua and his wife quietly taking away more than ten cats from the cat room. "The private vault must have been stolen by these three people..."
She was so angry that her blood boiled: "This princess will tear these three people into pieces!"
Sheng Yin's advisers pieced together the whole story based on what she said.
"Isn't it possible that these three are spies sent by the Third Prince? They are specifically sent undercover in the Princess's residence to gather information."
"More than that..." Sheng Yin thought of the priceless treasures that were stolen from her, and how she had given Jiang Lihua a huge sum of money and various rewards like water with a wave of her hand. She was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. She actually supported the enemy's spies!
"etc."
The money spent on making cat food...
Sheng Yin's eyes widened suddenly, and she grabbed Butler Liu by the collar: "Where did Jiang Lihua buy the chicken for the cat meal?"
Butler Liu replied quickly: "Chicken market, Haizhou He family Xiuzhu Jinji stall!"
He was afraid that if he spoke too late, the princess would strangle him to death.
"Send someone to investigate the place Steward Liu mentioned! Now I think this place should be the base for the spies to communicate with the Third Prince!"
The leader of the palace guards couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, there's a war going on in the city. I'm afraid the place is deserted."
The deputy commander in the tent shook his head, clearly disagreeing with what the palace guard said: "The eldest prince's surprise attack was sudden, and many people in the city had no time to escape and were hiding in their homes.
Someone among the planners also agreed: "Let's not talk about whether the person ran away or not. Even if the person in the stall ran away, there would definitely be clues left. Besides, there are so many technician stalls, there must be someone who didn't run away and knows the stall owner."
"These three people have done so many evil things together. It's impossible for them to do it cleanly. There must be loopholes."
——“Check it for me!”
Sheng Yin couldn't control her emotions after hearing this and roared, "Investigate them thoroughly!"
Deputy General Duan, one of his subordinates, immediately took the order and went out.
The roar just now seemed to have drained all of Sheng Yin's strength, and her body swayed.
Her subordinates worriedly advised, "Your Highness, you should go and get some rest."
Sheng Yin was helped by her maid to the sleeping tent to rest.
About an hour later, she was awakened by her personal maid.
"Your Highness, I have two pieces of good news!"
Sheng Yin suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
"Hurry up and tell me, don't keep me in suspense!"
The maid's face was filled with joy. "First, the good news: the soldiers stationed at the harbor can already see the shadow of the supply ship from afar! They're preparing to receive it!"
Sheng Yin smiled when she heard this: "What about the second one?"
"Jiang Lihua and his wife have been captured! They are now being held captive awaiting the princess's sentencing!"
The maid explained the details of the arrest, focusing on the key points: "The owner of the Bamboo Pheasant stall did indeed escape, but Deputy General Duan received a tip from other vendors in the chicken market who hadn't had time to flee. They said that during the chaos in Haikui City, a masked man and woman were seen driving a carriage past the Bamboo Pheasant stall, then hurriedly departed for the chicken farms on the outskirts of the city."
She couldn't stand the fact that Jiang Lihua became a big hit in the princess's eyes as soon as she entered the mansion. Now that this person was caught, she felt extremely happy.
"Deputy General Duan led his men to the chicken farm and captured Jiang Lihua and her husband there! They seemed to be waiting for someone to pick them up."
"Lieutenant General Duan is currently searching the chicken farm. He knows you're angry, so he sent the lieutenant to bring the two spies back."
The supply ship is coming!
The spies caught two!
After hearing these two exciting pieces of news, Sheng Yin felt that her tiredness and fatigue were swept away.
She quickly got off the bed and asked the maid to help her change her clothes: "Quick! I want to interrogate these two spies now!"
The maid hurriedly dressed Sheng Yin.
A quarter of an hour later.
Sheng Yin, dressed in red military uniform, entered the meeting tent with a menacing look.
After a while, Jiang Lili and Xin Che were escorted into the tent by two soldiers.
Sheng Yin looked down at the two of them, his gaze fixed on Jiang Lili, his angry eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
"Jiang Lihua, you really surprised this princess."
Jiang Lili's hands were tied behind her back at this time. She looked up at Sheng Yin, who looked much more haggard. She stopped pretending to be naive and raised an ambiguous smile on her pretty face, which was very eye-catching.
Jiang Lili chuckled: "Sheng Yin, if you dare to steal my things and hit my men, you must be prepared for my revenge."
At this moment, she did not have the fear that a prisoner should have. She was in a relaxed state as if she had come to Sheng Yin's place to drink tea.
Sheng Yin was called by her name by Jiang Lili, whom she had always regarded as a servant, and was also hurt by her dazzling smile, which made the flames of anger rise.
Sheng Yin picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at Jiang Lili: "Bitch, who allowed you to call me by my name?"
Jiang Lili dodged nimbly to the side, two dimples appearing on her face. She softly uttered two words: "Your father."
How is that not telling the truth?
However, her honest words angered Sheng Yin.
"Hold her down for me!"
Sheng Yin rolled up her sleeves and stood up from her seat. She wanted to slap this woman twice herself!
The guards behind Jiang Lili quickly restrained her and prevented her from moving.
