I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

"You idiots, the murderer is not Qingli!"

At this time, Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi, who came after hearing the news, shouted coldly at the group of experts. The two of them had no evidence to prove Jiang Qingli's innocence, but there was no doubt that if Jiang Qingli wanted to kill Ji Xinyue, she could do it in front of everyone like she did in the afternoon. Jiang Qingli had a very valid reason to attack Ji Xinyue. There is no need to resort to such despicable means as assassination.

After saying this, Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi illuminated the body on the ground with candlelight, thus confirming that the deceased was Ji Xinyue's maid. But after searching around the house several times, Ji Xinyue was not found. It is very strange to see no one alive and no corpse after death.

"Qingli, was this the scene when you came?" Murong Jiu asked.

"Well, I didn't touch anything at the scene." Jiang Qingli muttered: "The killer seemed to have calculated the time, knew that I was about to come, killed the maid, and took Ji Xinyue to who knows where, and wanted to marry Woe to me."

Tantai Xi frowned and said: "It's not necessarily a matter of placing the blame. It's more like deliberately delaying time so that the murderer can escape. Ji Xinyue's personal maid was killed directly. The murderer's goal seemed very clear, which was to go after Ji Xinyue Come. What is the realm of a maid?"

"Madam, this maid is the ninth grade of the Grandmaster." A master next to him replied with utmost respect. Although they directly obey Lu Yuan's orders, they must also maintain the highest respect for Lu Yuan's eight wives, and naturally answer all questions.

"The realm of the ninth-grade Grandmaster is only one step away from being promoted to Grand Master. Judging from the wounds, she was killed by the murderer in one blow. The body was dragged from the main hall to the bedroom, leaving a pool of blood on the ground. The murderer was very strong. It should not be underestimated," Tantai Xi analyzed.

After checking the body, Murong Jiu added: "The murderer should not be underestimated. The maid's meridians were severed. To be able to do this requires at least the level of a Grand Master. This murderer must be at least a Grand Master's level. The master.”

Jiang Qingli said with a stern expression: "The murderer is afraid that he hid in the distance and overheard our conversation this afternoon, otherwise he would not know that I hate Ji Xinyue. The murderer seized this opportunity, causing me to be wrongly accused , and fled with Ji Xinyue."

Tantai Xi nodded, turned around and asked the group of masters: "Did anyone among you suddenly disappear tonight?" Murong Jiu suspected that there were traitors among the masters who were guarding the home, including masters who had reached the perfect state of the Grand Master. , while Lu was far away, he suddenly attacked Ji Xinyue. The murder just happened not long ago, and the murderer was busy moving Ji Xinyue, and he would definitely not be able to come back at this moment, so the person who didn't show up tonight might be the real culprit of the murder!
"Mr. Mingyue, and Taoist Menghua don't seem to be here... Yes, those two are not here. Both of them are great masters. Madam Dan, do you think the two of them are the murderers?" The experts suddenly understood Dan. Tai Xi's suspicion, "Everyone disperse, arrest these two people immediately!"

A group of martial arts masters separated and acted separately.

Jiang Qingli stared at the body of the maid on the ground and said: "I have a hunch that the real culprits are not necessarily Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua. Both of them are in the realm of great masters. If they want to kill someone, they will definitely be killed by someone lurking in the yard. Discovered by other masters of the same level.”

Murong Jiu said: "I have met these two people in the mansion. They were mentored by my husband three years ago. They were promoted from the late stage of Grand Master to the Perfect Stage of Grand Master in one fell swoop. My husband quite recognized their martial arts talents. "Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua are loyal to their husbands and are unlikely to betray them and do such horrific things."

Murong Jiu once met Mr. Mingyue and wrote an epitaph for himself with Mingyue as the theme. Later, he got the title "Mr. Mingyue". This person has an optimistic and broad-minded personality, which can be seen from the fact that he wrote an epitaph for himself in advance. "We can only investigate step by step. At this time, no suspicious person can be let go." Tantai Xi said.

After dawn, the information from Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua were sent over one after another. After reading the information, Tantai Xi, Murong Jiu, and Jiang Qingli were all very surprised. Intelligence showed that when the murder occurred last night, there was a watchman in the city who witnessed the two of them flying at high speed from the courtyard where Ji Xinyue lived to the direction of the back mountain.

"Three madams, please give me an order. I am willing to lead a team to search the back mountain and bring these two people to justice. Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua are both first-class masters of the perfect state of the Grand Master. I hope that the three Madam, you can appoint more helpers." Someone asked immediately.

"Knowing people but not their hearts. Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua once discussed martial arts with me all night long. The understanding and talent of these two people are not inferior to mine. In time, they may be ranked among the top ten masters. It's a pity. They took a wrong path. I am willing to go together with the three ladies to find the murderer. But I want to ask, what are they trying to do?"

"It should not be difficult to guess their motives and purposes. I believe that they have secretly accepted the benefits of the treacherous Prime Minister Su Quan and worked hard for Su Quan a long time ago. They had been hiding it well before, until now Su Quan was completely defeated. They finally couldn't hold back their restlessness and decided to attack Ji Xinyue. "

"Then why is it Ji Xinyue and not the three ladies?" Someone asked on the spot.

"It's very simple. First of all, the three ladies are now masters at the Grand Master level. Whether the murderer wants to assassinate or kidnap, he will inevitably create noise and lead to his identity being exposed. Ji Xinyue is different. There is only one person beside her. She is a maid of the ninth rank of the Grandmaster. Her level is not high. As long as she kills the maid, Ji Xinyue will be kidnapped easily. "

"Secondly, His Majesty Jiang Linglong is about to ascend the throne. If her queen mother Ji Xinyue is killed at this time, it will destroy Ji Xinyue's enthronement ceremony and cause bad effects. This is why I speculate that Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua , the reason why he took refuge in Su Quan."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingli shook her head and said: "You have ignored a very important fact. As a witness, the watchman only saw Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua flying from the courtyard to the back mountain, but he did not I saw the two kidnapped Ji Xinyue."

"I was just about to say this." Murong Jiu expressed his thoughts, "The murderer should not be Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua. I guess that the two of them might have discovered the real murderer at that time, so they chased them all the way to the back mountain. ”

Tantai Xi said: "That's right, Mr. Mingyue and Taoist Menghua are not the murderers. They are obviously chasing the murderer. Everyone, get ready, let's go into the back mountain to find someone!"

On that day, the top experts in Cangyun County, along with the three wives Tantai Xi, Jiang Qingli and Murong Jiu, entered the back mountain to look for Mr. Ming Ming and Taoist Menghua.

As a result, that night, they found the bodies of the two of them halfway up the mountain! (End of chapter)
