Chapter 39 Investigation of the Assassination
These things can't be piled up all the time without being resolved, not to mention that no one knows who the murderer is, and if it threatens life, no one can afford it.
While the matter has not yet fermented, it is better to solve it first.
The maid glanced at Xie Tianfan cautiously, and she gave the maid a look and asked her to go out first.
She immediately understood, put the medicine in her hand on the table next to her, and went out to bless them.
"That night it was my maid who said that a man jumped in through the window and tried to kill me with a knife."
Xie Weifan simply told him everything that had happened before and after, and looked at him after he finished speaking.
Lin Zhen was thoughtful, and after a while, he raised his head: "Did you find the person who delivered the news to you?" ”
At the beginning of what he said, Xie Weifan didn't react to what he meant, and after being stunned for a moment, he realized that he was talking about the person who had just begun to pass on the information about Lin Haoyue's fall into the water.
But she didn't know the information of all the people in this house, let alone which specific person she found.
It is impossible for Lin Zhen to suddenly mention this person so without a beginning or a tail, so what is it ......
Xie Weifan pondered for a moment, and immediately realized.
This is simply a conspiracy they connected up, originally wanted to take advantage of the rainy night to kill her, but unexpectedly unsuccessfully, so there was a later assassination.
Before Lin Zhen raised this question, Xie Weifan always felt that this matter was covered with a thin layer of fog.
Obviously, everything was laid out in front of them as it was, but she just felt that there was still something that had not been resolved.
But now that he had said this, all the clues became clear.
When Xie Weifan raised his head and looked at Lin Zhen again, a flash of admiration flashed in his eyes.
She exclaimed: "Lord Wang, you are simply amazing, you really haven't thought about things that you haven't figured out for so long, and Lord Wang actually reacted immediately after listening to it once." ”
Thinking that no matter how cold he was, he should give a response, but he didn't expect Lin Zhen to just respond simply as usual.
"Hmm."
If you're praised like this, can't you give me a real reaction? This bad man must be secretly having fun behind his back.
Xie Weifan complained silently in his heart, but he caught a shallow arc at the corner of Lin Zhen's mouth.
Oh, it turned out to be secret.
Even the joy has to be secretly hidden, and he is really a good prince who can't collapse no matter what.
"Talk."
Shi Tan, who had been waiting quietly outside, walked in: "Lord Wang." ”
"Who was the person who delivered the message that day?"
Shi Tan thought for a long time: "That person is very faceless, as if he has never seen him in the mansion before, could it be someone from outside the mansion?" ”
Xie Tianfan also thinks that this possibility is very likely.
But if that's the case, then a new question arises - who is bringing the people from the outside in?
"Go and check, search the whole palace, and ask anyone who has seen this person."
After listening to the order, the guards who walked in outside hurriedly left Xie Weifan's courtyard with Shi Tan.
"Is there anything else going on these days?" Lin Zhen's gaze fell back on Xie Tianfan.
Xie Weifan shook his head: "Except for this incident, there is nothing, the palace is very good." ”
"Hmm." Originally, Xie Tianfan thought that he was simply understanding the situation, but he didn't expect Lin Zhen to pause, and suddenly added, "You're fine." ”
These simple five words made Xie Tianfan's originally lively thoughts suddenly freeze.
She looked at the man with a blank look at the man whose face was still changing.
Didn't you hear that right? He actually said something like that?
The man who was originally meticulous and so serious suddenly said these words, which made Xie Weifan feel a little embarrassed.
She lowered her head and coughed lightly: "Young Master Lin and Miss Lin have been studying hard in the past two days, and Master has often praised them to me, saying that they are studying very well." ”
"Okay, you've done a great job."
Hearing this, Xie Tianfan's eyes lit up.
She blinked and looked at Lin Zhen with hopeful eyes: "In that case, can the prince allow me to go back to see my mother?" ”
Lin Zhen's gaze swept over lightly: "When did I not get it?" ”
Please, when she mentioned it before, he used such a difficult task to make it difficult, and now after the task is completed, he says these cool things again.
It's really funny, alas.
But now that the goal has been achieved, it's useless to dwell on it.
Xie Weifan forcibly suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and smiled: "The prince has indeed allowed it a long time ago, in that case, then the concubine will leave to go back to her parents' house tomorrow, okay?" ”
Now it's almost lunch, and I have to pack my luggage in the afternoon, and the journey back to my parents' house today must be a bit rushed, so I can only tomorrow.
Xie Tianfan was already planning everything next, but Lin Zhen over there suddenly threw two words indifferently: "No." ”
All the blueprints that had just been planned were completely shattered by these two words.
She was a little puzzled: "Why?" Didn't the prince already promise the concubine, and just said that there was no problem with the concubine going back? ”
On the surface, she blinked her eyes aggrievedly, and was about to leave two tears, but in her heart, she had already greeted all of Lin Zhen's relatives.
is worthy of the prince, she knows that things will definitely not be so easy.
"It's not that I don't agree with you going back." Lin Zhen saw that Xie Tianfan was about to cry, and his tone softened a little, "It's just that you think it's safe to go back at this moment?" ”
Suddenly throwing this question made Xie Weifan feel a little caught off guard.
She really didn't think about this problem, and now that she thinks about it, she hasn't even found the real murderer of the assassination, if she packs her luggage and goes back at this moment, and there is no one else to take care of her on the road, wouldn't it be just a target for them to attack?
Xie Weifan was silent for a moment, and finally compromised: "The concubine understands, since this is the case, then the concubine will wait for the prince to find out the real culprit of the assassination in the palace, and then go back to see my mother." ”
I didn't expect it to be so difficult to go back to my mother's house, after a lot of hardships, more than ten days have passed, and I still can't see the end.
But this time he really can't blame Lin Zhen, he thought so thoroughly, it was indeed for her safety.
"Let's investigate this matter, don't tell them yet, I'll secretly send someone to protect them."
Xie Weifan knew that he was talking about Lin Haoyue and Lin Zhenhao, so he nodded obediently: "The concubine understands that the concubine will never reveal too much to them, so the prince can rest assured." ”
The two came out of the back room, Lin Zhenhao and Lin Haoyue had already returned from the school, and they were sitting on chairs in the hall at the moment, discussing the topic left by the master this morning.
