Chapter 329 Memorial Tablet
"Your Highness, I just received news that an assassin is heading to the Luo residence. Fortunately, you asked your subordinates to send secret guards to guard there, otherwise, the people living in the Luo residence would be in great danger."
As soon as Wei Lin got the news, he hurried to report it to Chen Ji.
"Did you catch him alive?"
Chen Ji was checking a secret letter at this time. This secret letter was written by Tal and it was about the division of interests between Daliang and Beiyi after the establishment of the mutual trade.
Previously, with the help of Chen Ji, Tal successfully gathered his old subordinates, broke into the royal city, drove away Lige, and became the King of Beiyi.
Tal had just regained the throne and his foundation was unstable, so he needed to recuperate. Therefore, he was very supportive of setting up a trade market.
"All the captured killers committed suicide by taking poison. The leader... was not caught."
Chen Ji's brows were slightly stiff. Even without any witnesses, he knew who did it. His disgust for Chen Lingyi suddenly deepened!
Before leaving, Xiao Ran asked him to do her a favor, which was to send someone to secretly protect her friends in Hexi Village.
Unexpectedly, her worries came true so soon.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Ji instructed Wei Lin:
"Send someone to Hexi Village and ask..."
……
In the Dandan River, Lan Zheng, who was resting in the river, did not come out of the water until all the secret guards searching nearby had evacuated. He was gasping for breath.
The mission of exterminating the Luo family has not been completed... then it has not been completed!
I'll report back and say it's done. Anyway, the princess won't send anyone to check if all the people in Luo's house are dead or not, just like the last time I led people to the Prince of Yan's Mansion.
The order he received was to kill a four or five-year-old child in Prince Yan's mansion, named Chen Xingchen.
But his men searched Prince Yan's mansion thoroughly and did not find Chen Xingchen. They only found the child's room and a child who was about six or seven years old.
He knew that the child's age did not match Chen Xingchen's, but if he did not complete the task, he would be executed by the princess!
That old bald man Huineng said that he had killed the wrong person. Of course he knew that something was wrong, but there was only this one child in the huge Prince of Yan's Mansion. Who else could he kill if not him?
I acted quickly, and after killing the child, I found that there was something wrong with the child's clothes and his height was also a big giveaway.
So he ordered his men to shorten the child's legs, chop off his toes, and put on him the clothes and shoes they had searched the room for.
Dressed like this, the dead child really only looked like four or five years old. Even if the princess later discovered that Chen Xingchen was still alive, she could still argue that there was no portrait of Chen Xingchen and therefore she had killed the wrong person.
A light breeze blew, and Lan Zheng, dressed in black, felt chilly all over. He swam to the shore, looked at the stars in the sky to identify the direction, and then chased in the direction of the imperial carriage.
……
Kyoto, Jiang Mansion's study.
Looking at the news from the North on the note, Jiang Bin's hands couldn't help but tremble, and the note in his hand almost fell out of his hand.
"Hui Neng, after all these years, you are finally dead. I am... relieved."
The study room lit by more than a hundred candles was as bright as day. Jiang Bin's raised mouth corners wrinkled the corners of his eyes, but there seemed to be something solemn flashing in his eyes, making his smile seem very forced.
"Somebody come!"
"Homeowner!"
The person who pushed the door open was Jiang Bin's most loyal old servant, Jiang Sheng.
"Add another tablet next to those two."
"May I ask, Master, for whom did you buy this?"
"Hui Neng."
