Ji Changsheng nodded.

The great love between a human and a demon in Xuandu Temple was ruthlessly broken up by Yu Linglong.

Ji Changsheng thought that he had to take on this great love story between a human and a demon in Ying State.

This is called the wife follows the husband.

Ji Changsheng and Li Changxi were both carefully observing the Queen's reaction.

When Ji Changsheng revealed that the Queen had demonic aura leaking out, they both saw the Queen's face turn slightly pale and a flash of panic in her eyes.

That's basically correct.

When investigating a case, Ji Shen does not need to find any concrete evidence. Once he has investigated to this point, he can basically draw a conclusion.

"Empress, if I'm not mistaken, you have the blood of the Blue Harrier."

Ji Changsheng did not use a question sentence, but an affirmative sentence.

The Queen was furious: "Ji Changsheng, don't go too far. You killed my son first, and then pointed the butcher knife at me. Do you want to kill the entire Ying Kingdom royal family?"

This is also the common thought of everyone now. The Queen can be said to have expressed the voice of the onlookers.

It seemed that Ji Changsheng was really aiming to kill all the royal family members of the Ying Kingdom.

In response, Ji Changsheng smiled and patiently explained: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I swear to heaven that Hongye, as a member of the Ying Kingdom's royal family, will definitely not die."

The old demon Ji fights for sincerity in exchange for sincerity.

After hearing what Master Ji said, only Ying Hongye felt warm inside, while everyone else felt a chill in their hearts.

"Your Highness, there is no need to panic and accuse me. If Your Highness can admit that your three sons are all up to no good, even if you really have the blood of the Blue Harrier and the background of the Ten Thousand Demons Nation, I can let you off the hook." Ji Changsheng said seriously, "After all, you are Hongye's mother. For Hongye's sake, I don't want to kill you."

Ying Hongye felt warm inside again.

Changsheng really has me in his heart.

But the Queen did not accept Ji Changsheng's kindness. She was still immersed in the anger of losing her son and the panic of having her bloodline exposed by Ji Changsheng: "I am the Queen Mother of Ying State. How can I be threatened by a demon like you? Prime Minister Li, Marshal Zhang, Deputy Pavilion Master Yue, are you just going to watch Ji Changsheng humiliate me like this?"

Li Xiang and the other two smiled bitterly.

They really didn't want to watch.

Nor did he believe Ji Changsheng's sincerity.

But they can't stop it.

The strength of the old ministers of Fire Seed is far above theirs, and two of them have been eliminated by Ji Changsheng.

They are just giving away their lives.

However, Ying III was unconscious, and the orphans and widows left behind were bullied by Ji Changsheng in front of them, which was really a slap in the face of Ying State. Moreover, the orphans were gone, and if the widowed mother was gone, what would Ying III do when he woke up?

With the idea of ​​being loyal to his country, Li Xiang risked his life to stand up and said to Ji Changsheng, "Master Ji, the Queen does not have much power in Ying State... There is no need to kill the Queen."

What this means is that you should be more restrained.

Ying Hongye's three direct competitors have already been killed, so why should we kill the Queen Mother as well? The Queen Mother has no influence on Ying Hongye's succession to the throne.

Ji Changsheng actually thought so originally.

As long as the Queen is willing to bow her head, even though she is really a monster, it is not impossible to cooperate.

Unfortunately, she was unwilling to bow her head or cooperate.

Can Ji Changsheng be blamed for this?

"Li Xiang, there is one thing you haven't considered."

"whats the matter?"

Ji Changsheng pointed at the second prince's body and began to reason: "The Huangquan Sect has penetrated so deeply, and Prince Duan would rather die than reveal the secrets of the Huangquan Sect. What does this mean?"

Li Xiang: “…”

He felt that this proved that the second prince was not a demon from the underworld at all.

But he didn't dare to say it.

Ji Changsheng gave a direct answer: "This shows that there is a real culprit hiding deeper behind the Second Prince. Moreover, this mastermind can make the Second Prince use his life to cover her up. How many people in the entire Ying Kingdom can make the Second Prince do this?"

Ji Changsheng looked at the Queen and stated his final conclusion: "Except for the assassinated and unconscious Majesty, only the Queen could have made the Second Prince do this. Ladies and Gentlemen, is my reasoning logical and impeccable?"

Ji Changsheng blew on the exquisite jade sword.

Li Xiang hesitated to speak.

The Queen was so angry that she fainted.

Unfortunately, the person she met was Ji Lao Mo.

A basin of cold water appeared out of nowhere and was poured on the Queen's head, waking her up immediately.

"Empress, you can't get away with pretending to be dead. You'd better tell the truth. For Hongye's sake, maybe I will show you mercy."

Ji Changsheng gave the Queen another rare chance.

Everyone who knows Ji Lao Mo knows that he really has a kind heart.

But the Queen doesn't think so.

In her eyes, Ji Changsheng is a complete devil.

"Your Majesty, please wake up soon. If you don't wake up, I will be wrongfully killed by Ji Changsheng, the demon from the evil sect."

Ji Changsheng looked at the Queen who was starting to cry, make a fuss and then threaten to hang herself, and there was an undisguised murderous intent in his eyes.

After persuading him twice, he won't do it again.

Nodding to Ying Hongye, Ji Changsheng said in a deep voice: "Hongye, let's put aside the Queen's matter for now. I will tell you what has been verified. The evidence is conclusive that the eldest prince was plotting something bad, but he has nothing to do with the assassination of Your Majesty. You know me. Although I despise the eldest prince very much, I will not wrongly accuse him of something he has not done."

Ying Hongye praised Ji Changsheng: "Changsheng, you are very perceptive and should be a role model for the world."

Ji Changsheng glanced at the Queen and thought to himself, you gave birth to such a smart daughter, why are you so stubborn?

I'm beginning to doubt whether the red leaves are yours.

and many more……

"Senior Sister, does Hongye have the Qingyao bloodline?"

He couldn't see it, but Li Changxi should be able to see it.

The Queen is a hybrid of human and demon, and Ying III is a pure-blooded human. Normally, Ying Hongye should have a quarter of Qingyao blood.

Li Changxi also instantly perked up.

She carefully observed Ying Hongye from head to toe and gave a positive conclusion: "Ying Hongye is a pure-blooded human. Wonderful, really wonderful."

Ji Changsheng's expression also became very interesting.

There is Luo Qingling in front and Ying Hongye behind.

Well, this is very royal, no need for surprise.

My father-in-law is really not a good person.

From this perspective, there is a 90% chance that the Queen is the real culprit behind the assassination of Emperor Ying III.

The motive for the crime is obvious.

No wonder Hongye said that the queen favors boys over girls.

It would be strange if there was no preference for boys over girls.

Ji Changsheng suppressed the idea of ​​sharing this gossip on the spot, and continued to say to Ying Hongye: "I have also searched the Third Prince's mansion thoroughly. Fortunately, with the help of the virtuous Princess Li Jianmei, I have verified the evidence of the Third Prince's crimes. The Third Prince is also involved in treason, but it has nothing to do with the assassination of Your Majesty. There is no evidence to prove that the Third Prince contacted the Assassin's League. He was just too close to the aristocratic families of Ying State."

Ying Hongye continued to nod: "Changsheng, I trust your judgment. The eldest brother and the third brother have been ruled out of suspicion of colluding with the Assassin's League. What about the second brother?"

Ji Changsheng said: "At present, we have only verified that Prince Duan is a demon from Huangquan. As for other crimes that Prince Duan has committed, I don't know yet."

Hearing Ji Changsheng say this, many people in Ying State subconsciously covered their faces.

The Queen became increasingly angry.

But Ji Changsheng showed his golden lotus of merit.

The golden lotus of merit, which was a little dim just now, is now a little brighter.

Ji Changsheng pointed to his own Golden Lotus of Merit and said calmly: "Although I haven't found any evidence yet, I can confirm that Prince Duan is a bad guy."

When killing the second prince, Ji Changsheng didn't go for the bad guy. He saw that the second prince had prepared the Jianzhen mirror in advance, and it was obvious that he had dug a trap for him to jump into. After confirming that it was the enemy camp, Ji Changsheng didn't care so much and took the initiative.

But after killing the second prince, Ji Changsheng confirmed that he was a bad guy.

The evil that the Second Prince had done outweighed the good that he had done.

"I don't know exactly what the Second Prince did, so we can start investigating now. Vice Pavilion Master Yue, your Secret Law Pavilion is professional in this area, please search the entire mansion thoroughly. I need a rough result in a quarter of an hour. If you can't do it, then it seems that we still need to find someone else to fill the vacancy left by Pavilion Master Shang."

Yue Qingzhao's expression suddenly froze.

She glanced at Ying Hongye and found that Ying Hongye did not object, so she immediately bowed and said, "Master Ji and Her Royal Highness the Princess, please wait for a moment. I will start the search immediately."

The team has already stood up, which is equivalent to showing loyalty. But loyalty alone is not enough. Obviously, Ji Changsheng and Ying Hongye need their subordinates to have sufficient capabilities.

Fortunately, Yue Qingzhao is not lacking in this regard.

She doesn't have an old father who is in the Tribulation Realm. To be the deputy leader of the Secret Law Pavilion, she can only rely on her own abilities.

Now that Ji Changsheng has given her the stage, she has performed to her full potential.

A quarter of an hour later, the evidence of the second prince's crime fell into the hands of Ji Changsheng and Ying Hongye.

The entire Prince Duan's mansion had not actually been completely searched, but Yue Qingzhao didn't need to go through so much trouble.

Yue Qingzhao explained: "The Secret Law Pavilion has always been paying attention to the three princes...including Princess Hongye. This is also what His Majesty specifically instructed."

Ying Hongye nodded and didn't take it seriously.

A mature emperor and a mature secret service agency will certainly pay more attention to the heir to the country. There is no need to get angry about this.

Ying Hongye is also a mature princess.

"So the Secret Law Pavilion already had control over some of the Second Prince's affairs, but Pavilion Master Shang suppressed them and did not report them."

At this point, Yue Qing glanced at Ji Changsheng and Ying Hongye, and his tone was full of admiration from the bottom of his heart: "Young Master Ji and Her Royal Highness the Princess were right in their previous judgment. The First Prince had long lost hope of succeeding to the throne. The Third Prince is the heir preferred by the current noble families of Ying State, and the Second Prince is the new ruler preferred by the old ministers of Fire Seed. If the old ministers of Fire Seed were allowed to vote to appoint a new ruler, the Second Prince would be the only candidate. Pavilion Master Shang knew this a long time ago, so he basically never reported the Second Prince's problems to His Majesty."

She knew that these things were normal, after all, she was the deputy leader of the Secret Law Pavilion.

Ji Changsheng was an outsider, and Ying Hongye was an exiled princess, but they could actually guess such a secret, which made her a little impressed.

Ji Changsheng thought to himself that it was nothing, I just tried my best to hit the target. If I hit the target, I would be awesome, but if I didn't, I would use my wife's jade sword to let the world say that I hit the target.

He was defeated in every aspect.

"The biggest problem of the Second Prince is that he almost monopolized the replacement of fresh blood for the Spark. During the internal blood replacement process of the Spark, the Second Prince firmly stood on the side of the meritorious old ministers. Your Highness, you know that our Ying Kingdom has many technical research and development geniuses, but their personal strength is very average."

Ying Hongye nodded.

"When Emperor Ying was still around a hundred years ago, these R&D geniuses were employed on the basis of merit. As long as the technology they developed was strong enough, even cultivators at the Mahayana or Crossing Tribulation realms could help them. But now, the Spark has begun to become divided into factions. Even the geniuses in charge of R&D must first pay homage to the mountain and seek protection. Wild geniuses without backgrounds will be severely blocked in their funding applications. The Spark no longer employs people on merit, but first looks at who your teacher is and whether you can behave like a human being."

At this point, Yue Qingzhao sighed helplessly: "Technical geniuses who are absolutely devoted to research and development will invest less in human relations. Some of them may not be incompetent, but they just don't want to waste time on being human. But now, the requirement for selecting talents within Huozhong has become that emotional intelligence is more important than ability. A hundred years ago, new technologies emerged in the Secret Law Pavilion, but in the past hundred years, there has been no essential technological innovation. The second prince has an unshirkable responsibility for this change in atmosphere. The real background of Princess Duan is actually the granddaughter of Old Lady Yao's adopted daughter."

Ji Changsheng looked at Ying Hongye in confusion.

Ying Hongye explained, "Yao Rengang is the man who just entered the palace and forced me to submit. He is basically responsible for the technical research and development of the fire, and all the research and development funds must pass through his hands. However, my second sister-in-law's life experience is actually related to Old Yao. This is the first time I know about this."

Yue Qingzhao explained: "I only learned about this secret after I became the deputy leader of the Secret Law Pavilion. Information about the merits of Fire Seed is highly confidential in the Secret Law Pavilion. Once leaked, there will be immediate and severe punishment."

Ji Changsheng's face was as gloomy as water: "No wonder the head of the Secret Law Pavilion has the surname Shang. Is the one with the surname Yao dead?"

Ying Hongye shook her head: "I have secured him in the palace. Old Yao has watched me grow up, and his contributions are all written in history books. Even now, his contributions are definitely greater than his faults. I can't bear to attack him. Just now in the palace, Old Yao told me that he watched me grow up, and asked me how I became like this?"

At this point, Ying Hongye sighed: "I also watched Grandpa Yao grow old, and I really don't understand why they became like this."

Ji Changsheng didn't care about this.

It is difficult to keep the original intention. No one can have a noble character like him.

As an adult, you just need to learn to pay the price for your actions.

"I'll go to the palace and put an end to this old man." Ji Changsheng said sympathetically, "If he dies early, he can still keep his dignity in his later years. This is for his own good."

No one dared to raise any objection except the Queen.

Ji Changsheng's focus once again returned to the Queen Mother.

"From the evidence we have collected so far, it seems that Prince Duan has nothing to do with the assassination of Your Majesty. Therefore, there is only one real murderer. Madam, will you choose to confess and be lenient, or will you let me expose your true face?"
