Chapter 1048: Thorough Investigation

There was no conspiracy in the whole thing. Neither the northerners wanted to make trouble, nor the powerful people in Liuzhou wanted the princess to die. It was actually caused by gambling debts.

Who would have thought of this?

The two people who kidnapped the princess planned to put her in the hunter's house first and let the woodcutter take care of her. The hunter took the opportunity to go to the city to sell furs to find out whose daughter was lost, so that he could threaten her for money.

But before all this was implemented, Tang Wenhu came to the door as a creditor.

Tang Wenhu listened to the two people's narration in detail, and he had a new idea in his mind.

Taking hostages for money is a way, but the method of the two gamblers is too stupid. Even if they give money, how can you take it? Come to your door openly?

Once they report to the police, you will all be at a loss.

So Tang Wenhu rolled his eyes and had a new idea.

He followed the woodcutter when he went home to change clothes, stabbed him to death with a sword, and then rushed to the hunter's house, intending to stab him to death, but the stab was off, and he didn't die on the spot.

Tang Wenhu didn't check carefully, and then stuffed the princess into the fur and drove the carriage back to the city.

At this time, Yang Yiyi had just found the village not long ago, and maybe she had met the carriage driven by Tang Wenhu on the way to the village.

What's more coincidental is that Tang Wenhu had just passed by, or even just entered the city, and the palace guards and the yamen runners began to block the traffic, playing a very precise time difference, otherwise he would have been stopped halfway, which was simply a joke from God.

Tang Wenhu felt that it was too risky to ask for money as a kidnapper. In this case, then I asked them for money as a rescuer of the lady, there would be no risk, right?

The reason why they were stabbed to death was that they might let the cat out of the bag. They were just two peasants. Even if they were found to be the ones killed by Tang Wenhu, he was not afraid at all. With the power of his family, it was no big deal to settle the matter.

Then, the princess was put into the casino in a carriage until Yang Yiyi came.

This was the process of the whole thing, but those who saw the results of the investigation, whether it was the imperial guards or the princess Mingzhu, felt their heads buzzing.

Hundreds of imperial guards, the highest level of security in Liuzhou, were actually found a loophole by two gamblers, and it was a complete coincidence.

Fortunately, the princess was fine. If there was any mistake, the emperor of Liuzhou would not have to do anything, and the imperial guards would probably have to commit suicide. It was too embarrassing.

The princess was found and the report was issued, but the matter was still not over.

Although the princess was kidnapped by accident, this nature cannot be counted as kidnapping.

The woodcutter is dead, so he escaped a disaster, but the hunter is still alive, but he is almost dead. Anyway, he is charged with kidnapping the princess, and he will definitely be sentenced to death, and the death penalty will not make him die easily.

The only lucky thing is that the hunter has no parents or children, and he is addicted to gambling all day long. No girl is willing to marry him, and he is still a bachelor. Otherwise, his whole family would have to die together because of this.

Although the Tang brothers took over the business unexpectedly, they were also involved, and they definitely didn't have a good ending.

As soon as the princess returned to Lingyun Temple, the imperial guards led the yamen runners to raid the Tang brothers' home, and all the people were taken to jail, and they even wanted to take away the chicken.

The ending of this group of people will obviously not be very beautiful, after all, the princess was found in your casino, and the princess also testified that you planned to sell her to a brothel.

Let's talk about reason. Those who dare to sell the princess to a brothel are really bold.

Passers-by didn't know what happened. They just saw a large number of yamen runners and even soldiers were dispatched to send the Tang brothers and their family to jail. Pedestrians on the street applauded and cheered, and the market was filled with a happy atmosphere.

It can be seen how much these two grandsons are hated.

Moreover, as the saying goes, pulling out the radish brings out the mud. The Tang brothers are so arrogant, they must have a protective umbrella to support them.

For such a major event as the disappearance of the princess, it will not be a casual investigation. It must be investigated to the end. Following the line of the Tang brothers, it is estimated that the government near Wangyun Mountain will also have to be reshuffled. The county magistrate is sitting at home and is happy to receive a fixed-term imprisonment. It is really a good thing...

Of course, who to arrest and how much is involved cannot be found out in a day or two. The imperial guards have sent an urgent report back, and someone will soon take over. The princess does not need to worry about this part, and everyone on this line will definitely die clearly.

As for the assassin from Anxiang Hall, the imperial guards asked Yang Yiyi about his opinion, confirmed that he had nothing to do with the whole thing, and after they could not find more information, they just found a random place to bury him.

What?

You said we caught an assassin?

Why didn't I see it?

The most outrageous thing about the whole thing was that no one expected that the two gamblers would kidnap the princess. From the imperial guards to Yang Yiyi and her friends, and then to Li Chengxi, they all thought that there must be a conspiracy in this matter, and the North was the most suspicious.

Who knew that it would be such a result? Li Chengxi almost sprained his waist after reading the report from the imperial guards.

Damn, I thought too much.

But anyway, the result is OK, and there are good things about this matter.

Since there is an assassin in Jingci Temple who has already targeted Yang Yiyi, her helping Ning Xianer to deliver the letter may have been discovered, at least this information has been confirmed.

Secondly, the imperial guards asked the killer a lot of information about how to contact the Anxiangtang. Liuzhou State would certainly not allow such a dangerous organization to operate in its territory. It would soon come to purge it.

Next, when Yang Yiyi leaves Lingyun Temple and goes to Luoxia Ferry to meet Ning Xianer, she needs to be more careful. Maybe the Anxiangtang will send a new killer.

However, that is a matter for the future.

The princess is back, and the people in Lingyun Temple have been released from surveillance and interrogation. Everyone is relieved.

The princess seems to be a little happy about the experience of being kidnapped. Specifically, she began to pester Yang Yiyi and others to ask if they could teach her some kung fu.

And the princess didn't seem to be frightened at all. She planned to hold the blessing ceremony as scheduled.

However, due to the kidnapping of the princess, the blessing ceremony originally scheduled for today will definitely not be held, and another auspicious day will have to be chosen.

In other words, the princess will have to stay in Lingyun Temple for a few more days.

But the princess was not frightened, but the palace guards and the Taoist priests of Lingyun Temple were frightened. From then on, not only did the palace guards guard more strictly, but the Taoist priests of Lingyun Temple also specially arranged people to patrol nearby, for fear of a second blow.

Yang Yiyi found an opportunity to hand the letter to the temple master, but I don’t know if he hadn’t responded to the shock he received, the temple master didn’t open the letter to see, and after learning that it was a letter from the master of Tianjue Palace, he carefully put it in his arms.

It’s really a bit outrageous to say that Yang Yiyi helped deliver several letters, and she didn’t know what was written in the letter, but it felt like it was very important.
