Chapter 404 Be Suspicious (Part Two)
Yun Shangpressed her lips and nodded her head. She walked back and forth in the hall before
she turned to Emperor Ning and said, "actually, it''s just my guess. Do you still remember that day I was
stabbed and hurt a few days ago?"
Emperor Ning nodded his, wondering why Yun Shang brought this up all of a sudden.
"Last time when I was assassinated, I only had a coachman with me. The coachman tried to fight
with them with all his strength, but he only dyed for a moment. In no time, those assassins caught
up, and I had no choice but to hide in a small yard in the alley, where the owner of the yard is exactly
Liu Yinfeng." Yun Shang said slowly and thought about the words in her heart.
"In fact, Yun Shang had met Liu Yinfeng in the KY city before. He caught me when I was investigating
the terrain, but he didn''t know who I really was. He caught me as a citizen of the state of Ning lest I
expose his marching route. That was why I knew him. Besides, the man in the prison was the crown
prince of the state of Xia. The other day I escaped into his yard. At the mention of this, he told me that
he had investigated in the prison as well and found that the oil in the prison was actually covering up a
smell of the incense. It was a kind of incense usually used by the people in the state of Xia, which
would bewitch the mind and make people in aa. I suspect the seventh Prince of the state of Xia
did it. After all, he is the only one who wants to kill the crown prince of the State of Xia and he is also in
the State of Ning right now. "
Yun Shang looked up at emperor Ning in secret. Emperor Ning''s face darkened. Yun Shang continued
speaking, "from then on, I suspected that grand councilor Li and the seventh Prince of the state of Xia
were in the imperial city. So I secretly ordered my bodyguards to search for them. It turned out that they
were telling the truth."
"Are they hiding in the Jing Kui''s residence?" Emperor Ning put down the teacup, took out a golden silk
handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the water stains on his hand and whispered.
Yun Shang nodded her head, "actually, I was just making a wild guess. After the ident of Jing
Wen, my father ordered the imperial city guards to put Jing Kui under house arrest. The other day, I
talked with a maid and told her where is the safest ce in the imperial city. I think, in addition to the
Imperial Pce, Jing Kui''s mansion should be safer since it has been surrounded by the imperial city''s
guards. The fire of the Jing Kui''s residence, to my father''s knowledge, was set by me. I asked my
servants to drive them out, and as I expected, they really hid in Jing Kui''s residence. "
Emperor Ning heard her and let out a sigh, "you admit it so directly. How can I exin it to the civil and
military officials? Jing Kui, after all, is still the grand Councilor. He is the head of all the officials. You
burn down the grand councilor''s house without a word."
A cunning smile appeared on Yun Shang''s face. "I''m father''s daughter. You have to cover it for me,
father."
Emperor Ning was at a loss whether to cry or tough. After a moment of silence, he asked again,
"since they have been caught, why don''t you hand them over to me?"
"It is not the right time. Now we don''t have enough evidence. Not only that, we haven''t known the thing
about the crown prince of the state of Yng yet. I think they have something to do with it as well.
Moreover, it must have something to do with father''s grand councilor Jing. I have figured out that the
younger brother of the housekeeper of Jing Kui once asked a woman in the brothel about the master of
fakery. Moreover, he was the first one to recognize the prince Jing''s voice in the Yuman tower that day.
As for the others, they are nothing but a group of people. "

Yun Shang frowned and let out a sigh. "These days, I''m so dizzy with these things that I don''t have
time to interrogate them. So I lock them up in my mansion first. Do you think that they summoned the
assassins because of the matter that has been known?"
Emperor Ning was silent for a long time before he said, "the crown prince of the state of Xia was even
killed in the prison. And it''s not safe in the prison. There are too many people in the pce. The rumor
will spread soon. You''d better keep them in your mansion now. As you said, we don''t have enough
evidence. Li Jingyan is fine. Born rebellious, his death is not to be regretted. The other one is also the
prince of the state of Xia. If he is caught in the pce, it will be difficult to exin. "
"Well... Your worry is reasonable, father. In that case, there are still some people we can use. Father, I
guess that you don''t know it yet, right? I met Mr. Qing Cang when I was in the KY city. And I have
be a student of Mr. Qing Cang at that time. Mr. Qing Cang is also in the imperial city right now. He
is good at setting up unique arrays. I will ask my master to set some arrays in my mansion fore me, and
no one else can break through. " Yun Shang said hurriedly.
"Really?" Emperor Ning squinted at Yun Shang and nodded his head. "In that case, you can make your
own arrangement." After thinking for a while, he added, "As for Jing Kui, since you said that he is
suspicious, I''ll send more people to keep an eye on him. If you have any evidence, you can go and
arrest him at any time."
