Destiny Phoenix

Chapter 88
The man couldn't bear the torture, and finally admitted that he was in the business of buying and selling officials.And the man behind the scenes is none other than Ling Wucheng.

A cold light flashed across the phoenix eyes, "Where is Xiao Lian?"

"Xiao Lian?" The man was taken aback, "The girl who was with the little beggar?"

"Yes."

"I don't know." The man shook his head vigorously, fearing that Feng Qingyao would not believe it, he raised his hand and swore solemnly: "Heavenly and earthly, I arrested that kid for the official document, and the girl is really not in my hands."

"You also wear the word conscience?" She sneered.

From the man's expression, she could tell that he was not lying, but Xiao Lian was not arrested, where would he go?

Fang Town is not big, and it takes less than an hour to walk from the east to the west. Feng Qingyao ordered people to search from house to house, but they still couldn't find Xiao Lian's whereabouts.I asked the nearby villagers, and they only said that they had never seen it.

The person sent to Ling's mansion sent back news that Ling Wucheng was ill, and seemed to be bedridden after being frightened a lot.

You don't need to ask to know, and it took half a mile to do it.

"By the way." Hua Banli said quietly, the voice was as clear as still water and somewhat leisurely.

Feng Qingyao ignored his deliberation, and thought about the discovery carefully, "I went to check the reeds, and judging from the footprints left, Xiao Lian didn't go far, and came back again. If you talk about it , It should be in the village, how come no one has seen her? The only possibility is that someone took her away before she entered the village. "

"If it wasn't Ling Wucheng, who else would it be?" The relationship between her and Xiao Lian and Nan Nan was unknown to outsiders, which ruled out her kidnapping Xiao Lian.Could it be related to the evidence they were looking for?
Just as he was thinking, the door suddenly rang, and a letter was stuffed in through the crack of the door.

She stepped forward a few steps, but only saw a figure disappearing outside the wall.

Opening the letter paper, there are a few lines of beautiful small characters: Xiao Lian is in my hands, if I want her to live, I will stay away from the East Palace.

"I don't want you to marry the prince, it seems that the other party is the prince's deadly enemy." Hua Banli's elegant and noble face overflowed with a smile, "the only one who can oppose the prince everywhere, and who knows everything in Beijing like the back of his hand, is the second prince."

"He did this, isn't he afraid of scaring the snake?" Feng Qingyao picked up the letter paper again and read it several times.

The writing is not heavy, but every hook and stroke is a little heavy.

"The person who wrote the letter should be a woman." She handed the letter to Hua Banli, and explained: "Writing the pen is not strong, but the ink stains on the back of the paper, which shows that although the writer is not strong enough, But deliberately slow down the action to make the font look thicker. It is also because the pen stays on the paper for a long time that the ink will wet to the back of the paper."

"So much painstaking effort is to make us think he is a man."

"Concubine De!" Feng Qingyao was determined.

In the former dynasty, the second prince and the crown prince were in the same situation, and in the harem, the contest between the concubine De and the empress never stopped.The empress is the crown prince's biological mother. If the crown prince inherits the throne and ascends to the throne in the future, Concubine De will have no future.Although her father, Ling Weiyuan, was the prince's master, when it comes to favor and status, concubine De would think a little more about herself.

An enemy's enemy is a friend, and the relationship between Concubine De and the Second Prince corresponds to this sentence.

"Miss!" Bai Xiu's exclamation came from outside the door. Before Feng Qingyao had time to put away the letter, Bai Xiu had rushed in, "Miss, King Zhan has returned to Beijing!"
