She knew the value of the Linglong Fairy Sword, but she grew up in the palace and knew the importance of the prince of Ying State.

In her eyes, what Ji Changsheng did was simply treasonous.

The female official emphasized her tone and tried to remind him, "Master Ji, beheading the prince in public is also a crime of treason. You shouldn't do this. The eldest prince is dead, and Princess Hongye can't bear the consequences. And you said it yourself that your purpose of coming to Yingguo was just to find out the truth."

Ji Changsheng smiled: "Sister Lady Official, I said I was an imperial envoy, do you really think I was an imperial envoy?"

Li Xiang and Marshal Zhang were silent.

A big boss with a high level and broad knowledge is naturally better than others in handling emergencies.

To be honest, they originally thought that Ji Changsheng was really helping Ying Hongye investigate the case. After all, Ji Changsheng had said in front of them not long ago that he would never wrongly accuse a good person, nor would he use this opportunity to set up a large-scale prison.

Now it seems that Ji Changsheng was talking nonsense.

But they endured it.

Because they know there will always be someone who won't tolerate it.

This is indeed the case.

The purpose of cannon fodder's existence is often to highlight the high rank of the big guys.

Obviously, the rank of the Queen's personal maid is not high enough.

She still doesn't understand the current situation.

"Master Ji, this is Ying State. The person who died is the prince of Ying State, and he has nothing to do with the assassination of Your Majesty."

Ji Changsheng narrowed his eyes and said, "How do you know that the eldest prince has nothing to do with the assassination of His Majesty? Could it be that you are the real murderer, so you know that the eldest prince is innocent?"

Without waiting for the female official to react, Ji Changsheng continued to reason: "No, the real murderer can't be you. You are just a female official beside the queen, there is no point in killing the emperor. You are the queen's person, you know that the eldest prince is innocent, hiss..."

Ji Changsheng took a deep breath and discovered the truth of the matter: "Prime Minister Li, Marshal Zhang, you all heard it with your own ears. This woman testified that the Queen was the culprit who assassinated His Majesty."

Li Xiang and Marshal Zhang continued to remain silent, but looked at the female official with some pity in their eyes.

Neither of us is talking anymore, why are you talking so much?

The eldest prince is already dead, can you bring him back to life?

The female official finally reacted and said loudly: "I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense, the assassination of His Majesty has nothing to do with the Queen."

"So why do you know that His Highness is not the real murderer?" Ji Changsheng asked sternly.

The female official was about to cry: "I don't know, it was my fault."

"As the Queen's personal maid, your every word and action represents the Queen. Don't speak carelessly or you will suffer the consequences."

The female official nodded vigorously.

Although he was already gnashing with hatred in his heart, he pretended to be grateful on the surface: "Thank you, Young Master Ji, for your guidance."

"Ruzi is teachable. What's the name of this sister?"

"Manrou."

"Sister Manrou, do you still believe that the eldest prince has nothing to do with the assassination of His Majesty?"

"I don't think so."

Manrou immediately took herself off.

Ji Changsheng made a decisive decision: "The Queen's personal maid Miss Manrou pointed out that the Highness might be involved in the assassination of the Emperor. Since Miss Manrou has reported it, I cannot take it lightly. Close the commander, break into the house, and confiscate the property. Miss Manrou will bear all the consequences."

Manrou knelt on the ground instantly.

However, Ji Changsheng ignored her at this time and kicked open the door of the eldest prince's mansion.

Miss Manrou will be fine, because something will definitely be found in the eldest prince's mansion, and then Manrou will be rewarded for her report.

Whenever something goes wrong, it is always the remnants of the eldest prince who are responsible.

Zhang Beimao, Yi Tan Yin and the others followed Ji Changsheng, feeling it was extremely unreal.

Zhang Bei almost missed a step and muttered to herself, "I suddenly remembered something."

"What's the matter?" Mao Yi asked.

"The afterimage was able to escape from the jade sword of Fairy Linglong. I'm afraid his strength is far inferior to that of Fairy Juejian."

So Mao Yi and Tan Yinxia also missed their step.

Things happened so quickly that they didn't have time to think about many details.

I have to say that Zhang Bei, the number one detective in the capital, has some talent and is indeed better at grasping details than ordinary people.

boom!

Marshal Zhang slashed at the back of Zhang Bei's head with his knife, knocking her unconscious.

Marshal Zhang then handed Zhang Bei to a guard beside him.

"Take her back and confine her to her room for seven days. If she takes one step out of the room..."

Marshal Zhang hesitated for a second, but still said coldly: "Behead!"

The guard asked in a low voice, "What about the master and the lady's request for mercy?"

Zhang Bei is Marshal Zhang's granddaughter and the eldest daughter of the eldest son.

That’s why I have the personality I have now.

Marshal Zhang said coldly, "Master, please depose him as the head of the family. Madam, please give her a letter of divorce. There are hundreds of people in the Zhang family, and we cannot hand them over to useless people, even if they are from the eldest branch."

Originally, he had selfish motives.

Of course, the eldest son should be favored a little. In fact, if a large family wants to maintain harmony, it is absolutely necessary to insist on appointing the eldest son instead of the most virtuous one. The reason is very simple. There is no clear standard for virtue or not. The right of interpretation belongs to the fist, which can easily cause disputes. As for the eldest son, the clear standard is there, which can reduce many internal troubles.

A clear standard is very important for a large family.

There are many things in the world that give bad people room to operate behind the scenes because the standards are not clear enough.

But the premise of all this is that the eldest branch of the family does not commit suicide.

In Marshal Zhang's opinion, what Zhang Bei said just now was suicidal.

After dealing with Zhang Bei, Marshal Zhang nodded slightly to Mao Yi, his voice full of iron and blood, "From today on, Zhang Bei will leave the Princess's Mansion. If Princess Hongye needs any help, please come find Pengju. Tomorrow, I will ask Pengju to be on standby and serve Princess Hongye."

Mao Yi and Tan Yin were both awed.

Zhang Pengju, the real talent of the Zhang family, has been kept by Marshal Zhang since he started to show his talent at the age of eight.

He had spent eighteen years of his adult life in the military. What was even more valuable was that he had spent seven years undercover in the Wan Yao Kingdom gathering intelligence, and four years as a pioneer in the border areas where wars were most frequent.

Marshal Zhang can control everything in Ying State, but he cannot control things outside Ying State, and cannot control the ever-changing situation on the real battlefield.

Zhang Pengju made great contributions on the front line of the Wan Yao Kingdom. He escaped death countless times in the four-year border war. He gradually inherited the Zhang family's connections and prestige in the army in the most indisputable way and with military merit.

After five years of military service, Zhang Bei was transferred out of the army.

It is not difficult to see who the big family is cultivating with all their heart and who they have the highest expectations for.

Marshal Zhang once asked Zhang Bei to work for Ying Hongye, but in fact no one in Ying State took it seriously.

Even Ying Hongye didn't think that he could win over the Zhang family through Zhang Bei, otherwise Ying Hongye would not have voluntarily given up his inheritance rights and joined Xuandu Temple.

But Zhang Pengju is different.

Marshal Zhang's actions revealed an important signal.

"Old Zhang, are you on the same side?"

Li Xiang took all of this in, and was amazed at the decisiveness of his "old friend".

Marshal Zhang shook his head and said, "It's not about taking sides, it's about apologizing. By placing Zhang Bei next to Princess Hongye, the Zhang family has offended Princess Hongye. If they continue to stay, they will also offend Young Master Ji."

After a pause, Marshal Zhang shook his head helplessly again: "Smart people will pretend to be stupid, and only stupid people want to appear smart. Zhang Bei went from the army to the Ministry of Justice, and from the Ministry of Justice to the Secret Law Pavilion. More than ten years have passed, but she is still like a teenager. She can only do things, but not be a human being. She can only pretend to be smart, but not stupid."

Li Xiang chuckled: "Young people always think they can discover things that others can't, and they always think they are the only ones who can see the truth."

The Ying Kingdom has no shortage of truly smart people.

However, the truly smart people in Ying State did not work for Ying Hongye, the princess who had the least hope of succeeding to the throne.

When Ji Changsheng came, everything began to change.

"Report, a dragon robe was found under the second tree in the Crown Prince's backyard!"

Chapter 192 As long as I kill enough bad guys, the real murderer will be brought to justice

Upon hearing that Ji Changsheng had found the dragon robe from the eldest prince's mansion, Prime Minister Li and Marshal Zhang both looked at the deputy leader of the Secret Law Pavilion.

Mao Yi and Tan Yin were also shocked.

Is there really something?

Yue Qingzhao, deputy head of the Secret Law Pavilion, looked even more shocked than them. She quickly summoned the people from the Secret Law Pavilion who were stationed in the Crown Prince's residence.

"What's up with the dragon robe?"

The two undercover agents from the Secret Law Pavilion looked at each other.

"I never noticed it."

"How come I don't remember that there are two trees in Your Highness's backyard? Isn't there only one?"

"puff."

This time no one could hold back.

Yue Qingzhao's eyes twitched: "Young Master Ji really... doesn't take us seriously at all."

Of course, she believed more in the words of the Secret Law Pavilion's undercover agent planted among the Crown Prince.

Therefore, what Ji Changsheng did was simply outrageous and arrogant.

Yue Qingzhao looked at Li Xiang and Marshal Zhang.

Two big guys, give me a rule, should we continue to tolerate him or expose him?

Li Xiang said in a deep voice: "Go and have a look."

Before they reached the backyard, another piece of good news came:

"Report, we found a Vice Pavilion Master Yue."

This time it was Yue Qingzhao's turn to almost fall down.

Compared to Zhang Bei, a young and ignorant person who has never understood the meaning of life, Yue Qingzhao has already become the deputy leader of the Secret Law Pavilion, and his level is naturally far superior to Zhang Bei.

But even with her extensive knowledge, she still didn't understand what it meant to discover a "Deputy Pavilion Master Yue"?

Yue Qingzhao quickly walked towards the scene of the incident. After a moment, her body shook again.

Because she really saw a "Deputy Pavilion Master Yue".

Looks exactly like her.

The difference is that this "Deputy Pavilion Master Yue" has a fox tail hanging behind him.

Seeing this scene, Prime Minister Li and Marshal Zhang's eyes twitched slightly, and they felt in their hearts that the eldest prince was really courting death.

Yue Qingzhao was even more furious.

"Who can tell me what is going on?"

She looked at the two undercover agents from the Secret Law Pavilion.

This time, the two undercover agents had their heads lower than the other.

They really didn't know about the dragon robe incident.

But they knew this "Deputy Pavilion Master Yue".

As soon as Yue Qingzhao saw their expressions, he knew that what happened was probably true, and he became even more furious: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Undercover A whispered, "We have reported this matter to the Pavilion Master."

Undercover B added: "The Pavilion Master was afraid that you, the Deputy Pavilion Master, would be too angry, so he asked us to keep it a secret from you."

Yue Qingzhao’s eyes went dark.

That means it wasn’t Ji Changsheng’s frame-up.
