Chapter 52: The Prince is furious

The prince came to the Punishment Department without warning because he wanted to see the murderer of Lin Qingjiang, and it didn't matter if Mo Ziyu was not there, he directly asked Ye Feng to take him to see the murderer.

Ye Feng broke out in a cold sweat again, he looked at Ling Lan like a plea for help, and asked what to do with his eyes.

If Zhao Liang is really a murderer, it is no problem to bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over, but according to the current clues, Zhao Liang is not necessarily a murderer, and it is easy to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince unhappy, and the consequences are unimaginable.

Ling Lan naturally guessed his thoughts, she wanted to be a transparent person, but she had to stand up at this time.

"The folk girl has seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

Duan Yucheng looked at her again for a few breaths: "You are Miss Ling, right?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, the maid's surname is Ling Minglan, and now she is following Lord Mo to do things."

After the last case, Ling Lan is also known to many people, so Duan Yucheng is not a stranger, before he came, he thought about what kind of girl she would be, but now she is a little surprised.

"In that case, how about you take Hongu to meet the murderer now?"

After careful consideration, Ling Lan asked instead of answering: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, is the murderer you referring to Zhao Liang, the butler of the Lin Mansion?" ”

Duan Yucheng was surprised that the other party was so bold, and no one dared not answer his question and ask him back.

"As far as this palace knows, Steward Zhao is the murderer, is there a mistake in the news that this palace has gotten?"

Invisibly, his tone was a little lower, and his expression was not as approachable as before.

Ye Feng's heart was drumming, and he became more and more uneasy, and at this time, he couldn't wait to check his wings and fly out to inform Master Mo to come back to save the scene.

Ling Lan pursed her lips, the other party is the crown prince, one person is above 10,000 people, and it doesn't seem good to say that there is a mistake.

However, if the other party thinks that Zhao Liang is the murderer, it is difficult to explain when there is a real problem, and the rhetorical question will be considered useless by the other party as Mo Ziyu.

Thoughts flashed, and she said stiffly: "It's not a secret, at first, Lord Mo also thought that Steward Zhao was the murderer, because he personally admitted and explained the process of committing the crime, but it was precisely like this that made Lord Mo suspect that he was lying, and it may not be him who really killed Lord Lin, but someone else." ”

Duan Yucheng's expression was uncertain: "How can you tell that he is lying?" ”

Ye Feng's heart trembled, and he instinctively wanted something bad.

There was no turning back when the bow was opened, and Ling Lan explained seriously without being humble or arrogant.

Let's talk about the strangulation marks on Lord Lin's neck, the lack of resistance injuries before being killed, etc., and then talk about Zhao Liang's confession, which is full of loopholes in comparison...

The darkness in Duan Yucheng's eyes gradually dissipated, and he returned to the gentleness he had before: "In this way, there are indeed many doubts, and further investigation is needed." ”

Ling Lan relaxed, feeling that this prince was quite reasonable.

Taking her reaction into full view, Duan Yucheng changed his words: "Even if he may not be the murderer, this palace must see him." ”

After the point was finished, there was no problem in seeing people again, Ling Lan pushed back and asked Ye Feng to lead the way for the other party, but the latter obviously hesitated, still standing in place and not daring to move.

Ling Lan looked over puzzled, and saw Ye Feng's pale face and shook his head slightly.

It's a pity that there is no tacit understanding, she still doesn't understand.

Worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be impatient after a long time, Ye Feng was really helpless and said: "Your Highness, why don't you go to the study to rest for a while, and the slave will go and bring Zhao Liang over." ”

Only then did Ling Lan react, the other party meant that the interrogation room was not suitable for His Royal Highness the Prince.

Ling Lan was silent, she really didn't understand.

Duan Yucheng quickly agreed, and let Ling Lan accompany him.

The latter can only think about it if he has the heart to refuse!

If Duan Yucheng's identity is put aside, Ling Lan feels that the other party is easier to get along with than Mo Ziyu, at least approachable, gentle and polite.

But he's a prince! Growing up in the stars and the moon since she was a child, she is very extravagant, and there are many etiquettes, she doesn't dare to make times easily, and she will get tired when she gets along.

After weighing it, I found that it was better to be with Mo Ziyu!

In the study, Ling Lan noticed that Duan Yucheng's gaze was always hovering over her, like a scanner, which made her uncomfortable.

Wait, wait, Ye Feng never came back.

Finally, Duan Yucheng's warm voice broke the subtle atmosphere: "Miss Ling, I don't know where your family lives?" Why did you suddenly follow Lord Mo to do things? ”

Ling Lan felt that the other party was asking knowingly, but she still answered seriously despite this.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the Minnu was injured and lost her memory before, and it was Lord Mo who saved the Minnu, because the Minnu couldn't remember the past, so she stayed down and did things because Lord Mo didn't dislike it."

Duan Yucheng didn't seem to question it, and looked at her with a little more pity: "I heard that you are very smart, if you can help Lord Mo solve this case and find out the real culprit who killed Lord Lin, this palace will be rewarded." ”

The surprise came too suddenly, and Ling Lan couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Really? ”

After asking, she regretted it, the other party is the prince, how can she break her word...

Duan Yucheng was not displeased, and his gaze became subtle.

The girl in front of her is very different, not only is he not afraid of the first meeting, but he can also answer the question calmly, calmly, not in a hurry, at this time when he hears the reward expression is a little different, and he is not sure to ask, it seems that he realizes that he said the wrong thing and becomes cautious, which is really interesting.

Ling Lan was indeed worried, not because he was afraid that he would be angry, but because he was worried that he would not be rewarded because he was unhappy, it would not be a big loss.

Observing his little emotions, Duan Yucheng chuckled: "Don't worry, this palace has always counted when he speaks." ”

Ling Lan was overjoyed in her heart and thanked her with a smile.

The prince's reward must be worth a lot of silver.

Ye Feng finally brought Zhao Liang over, and the atmosphere in the study became quiet.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the old slave has no face to face you, it was the old slave who killed the master, and the old slave deserves death..."

Zhao Liang knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, and soon blood spilled out and stained the ground red.

Worried that he would knock himself out again, Ling Lan immediately asked the guards outside to help people.

Duan Yucheng inquired about Zhao Liang with cold eyes, and when he learned the truth about Lord Lin's angina, he was angry, and he was surprised to hear the forged suicide note.

Ling Lan stood aside and observed silently, for some reason, Duan Yucheng's reaction was a little subtle, and he always felt that something was wrong and couldn't think clearly for a while.

There was a deafening bang, and Duan Yucheng's broad palm slammed on the table.

Zhao Liang's face turned pale with fright, trembling and silent, and Ye Feng invisibly moved backwards to keep a safe distance.

"You ungrateful dog slave, the teacher is really blind to trust you, come on, drag it down and hit fifty boards first." Duan Yucheng was furious.

Fifty boards, can you still live after the fight?

Seeing the prince's guards striding in, directly dragging Zhao Liang, who was tied hand and foot, out, Ling Lan immediately gave Ye Feng a look, don't beat people to death.

After being frightened, Zhao Liang suddenly shouted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the slave is willing to die to accompany the master, and when he arrives, he pleads to the master and continues to serve the master..."
