Chapter 25: Lying

The rain drenched her hair, drenched her clothes, and was cold from head to toe.

Suddenly, there was an urgent sound of horses' hooves, Wei Xueying raised her eyes, and in the pouring rain, the man dressed in purple and led the guards to rush over, it was Chu Ling.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Ling had already come to the front, he looked down at Wei Xueying, although her eyes were sharp at this time, and she did not have the weak posture of pear blossoms with tears, and Wei Xueying herself was not that kind of woman, she was stronger than any woman.

Without waiting for Chu Ling to ask, he heard the sound of horses' hooves again, and another team of people rushed over, and this time, it was the crown prince Chu Yi.

Chu Yi looked anxious, and after reining in the horse in front of Wei Xueying's eyes, he got off the horse, grabbed Wei Xueying's hand, and asked, "Xueying, are you not injured?" ”

"Nope." Wei Xueying shook her head and pushed Chu Yi's hand away.

Turning around, the Wei Mansion behind him was faintly visible, and the heavy rain could not stop the smoke after being extinguished, and the once glorious Wei family turned into ruins.

"Fight fires, count casualties, and those who dare to hide their belongings will be killed!" Chu Ling ordered to go down.

Immediately, Chu Ling's men and horses lined up into the Wei Mansion.

"Prince, why are you here?" Wei Xueying raised her eyes to look at Chu Yi and asked.

"This king was patrolling nearby, and when he heard someone running away, he said that something had happened to the Wei family, so he hurriedly brought someone here." Chu Yi said.

"Then, Lord Wang, why are you here?" Wei Xueying asked Chu Ling again.

Chu Ling turned over and dismounted, his posture was extremely elegant, he came to Wei Xueying's eyes, and said, "This king heard that the housekeeper came to look for you, it must be so late, there must be something urgent, so he hurriedly brought someone here." ”

Both of them came in time, and Wei Xueying understood that King Ling's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion were not close to the Wei family, so it was really suspicious that they appeared in such a timely manner.

There are so many clever things in the world, and this is too coincidental.

Wei Xueying's eyes were like torches, and she calmly swept the expressions of the two people, although Chu Ling was calm and spoke lightly, her eyes revealed anxiety, and although Chu Yi behaved very well, he was not in a hurry to ask if his uncle was okay.

Wei Xueying analyzed from the looks of these two people, but she was more willing to believe Chu Ling.

Recalling her father's words before he died, Wei Xueying was suspicious of Chu Ling again, she had no way of knowing what happened in the ten days she left, and for now, she still went to check if the murderer had left any evidence.

Wei Xueying returned to her father's study, and Chu Ling and Chu Yi's men worked together, and they extinguished the fire in the house, although there was still a choking smell of smoke.

She looked around in the burning study, there were obvious traces of a fight, the tables and chairs still maintained the appearance she had rushed in earlier, remembering that her father was sitting on the desk at that time, Wei Xueying came to the desk.

The things on the desk are not much different from the things that my father usually puts on, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, some books that are often read, because they have been burned by the fire, so the table is dirty, and there are water stains.

At that time, the book in front of my father's eyes was still open, but it had been burned to almost ashes, and because of this, what was underneath was revealed.

Wei Xueying raised her hand and pushed it away, revealing the color of the metal underneath.

As she fiddled, a very familiar object appeared, it was the golden crow long whip, in the Lingwang Mansion, she had used this whip to teach the cook and Liu Qingling, and now, this long whip that was supposed to be on Fengcheng's waist was in her father's study.

If it is said that Yu Fengcheng has been here and visited, then even if something is left behind, Daddy can send someone to send it back to King Ling's Mansion, why should it be rolled up neatly and placed under an open book?

Wei Xueying thought about it, wiped the golden crow whip clean, put it away, and hid it in the cuffs.

After checking around, Wei Xueying did not find any murderer, nor any murder weapon.

The rain kept falling, and all the corpses were piled up in the scorched hall of the Wei family, black and emitting an unpleasant smell of burning.

Wei Xueying's face did not change and she looked at each other, while listening to the guards report the inventory to the prince and the prince.

None of the people of the Wei family were spared, although the housekeeper went to the Lingwang Mansion and escaped, but he was beheaded outside the Wei family, the murderer seemed to be looking for revenge, everyone died cruelly, but the Wei family's property was still there.

Daring to be so ruthless to the Wei family and not afraid of power, Wei Xueying immediately thought of those killers who raided Chu Ling and killed the gods.

Thinking that she was on the Swallow Cottage, there were also two killers who came to assassinate her, but Fang Dabiao and others were the first to find out, so they fought, thinking about it this way, maybe they didn't go to kill Anu, the target was her.

The atmosphere was heavy and oppressive, Wei Xueying was silent, her life seemed simple, but it seemed to be in danger.

It's like being covered by an invisible net, and everyone around Wei Xueying seems to be living in such a killing machine.

Who is planning the conspiracy?

Who exactly wants her life?

If it's to steal the treasure map, the things are in hand, so why bother to make such a big case suspicious?

Compared with these things, Wei Xueying was most curious about why Chu Ling's palace lost the treasure map, and after a period of time, the treasure map was in the hands of her father?

A series of questions made Wei Xueying temporarily confused, but she believed that as long as someone committed a crime, there would be clues.

Seeing Wei Xueying pondering on the side, Chu Yi hurriedly stepped forward and asked Wei Xueying, "Xueying, are you afraid?" Don't be afraid, my brother is here. ”

Wei Xueying wanted to give him a roll of his eyes at this time, Chu Yi was always so unclear about the situation, and he was still talking nonsense right now.

"Don't worry, Xue Ying, my uncle won't be so unexplained and calculated, in the future, my brother will definitely start to handle the case, find out who is behind the scenes, and give my uncle justice."

"Well, Xue Ying thank you, brother." Wei Xueying responded to Chu Yi inadvertently, looking at Chu Ling coldly.

Chu Ling was examining the wounds of the deceased in detail, Yu Fengcheng was still following him, if Wei Xueying didn't think of Yu Fengcheng specifically, she wouldn't have noticed such a mediocre person at all.

Chu Yi was still chattering on the side, Wei Xueying didn't want to listen to his ramblings, and interrupted directly: "Brother, what you say is what you say, in the future, my brother should be more concerned about the affairs of our Wei family, and he can't be kicked in the face, Xueying believes that as long as my brother comes out, there is no case that can't be done." ”

"That's nature!" Chu Yi's pale face was a little more happy because of this word of encouragement.

"I still have some things to explain to my subordinates, so let's do this first."

Wei Xueying hurriedly stepped aside, and Chu Yi still recalled her words with a smile.

Wei Xueying pulled Fengcheng under the eaves, raised her eyes to look at his eyes, and asked, "Fengcheng, where is your golden crow long whip?" ”

"Back to the princess, I don't know where the golden crow whip fell, I haven't found it for a few days." Yu Fengcheng replied.

"Oh? That's how I found it in my father's study. As she spoke, she took out the golden crow whip from her cuffs.

Yu Fengcheng's stagnant face finally had a trace of waves, he raised a smile and reached out to pick it up: "Thank you, princess, I'm still worried that I don't know where to look." ”

Wei Xueying didn't give it to him, Yu Fengcheng's smile froze, and she asked, "Tell me, why did your long whip appear here?" ”

"This ...... I don't know, maybe I went to Wei Mansion a few days ago and left it here. Yu Fengcheng replied.

Wei Xueying always looked into Yu Fengcheng's eyes, she believed that if a person lied, there would definitely be flaws.
