My Dear Wife, Please Be Gentle!-Chapter 1180 - 1186 Conclusive Evidence
Chapter 1180: Chapter 1186 Conclusive Evidence
It was already late at night, and Qin Longyun still lingered in Li Mu’er’s room.
Prince Liang snorted lightly, "Lord Qin, how long do you plan to keep this up?"
Qin Longyun was inwardly flustered, but he maintained a facade of calm, "This official is still handling the case, but rest assured, Your Highness, I will make sure to control my men and will not disturb Your Highness’s rest."
But he had no intention of leaving just yet.
According to his subordinates, Tan Zhenghong had hurriedly left the prison, probably having thought of a solution.
He had to stay calm at this crucial moment, so as to buy Tan Zhenghong more time.
Prince Liang took a deep breath, knowing that this was Qin Longyun’s territory; he couldn’t outright order him to leave.
Instead, he simply sat down, determined to see what trick Qin Longyun was playing.
The two men sat opposite each other in silence, and the oppressive atmosphere became too much for Prince Liang’s maid, who quietly excused herself.
Prince Liang’s patience slowly eroded with time, and just when he was about to reach his limit, the maid at the door announced, "Your Highness, Master Tan requests an audience."
"Let him in."
Prince Liang answered without hesitation.
This would finally give him a legitimate reason to deal with these two men.
It wasn’t that he was cold-hearted, but these two were unaware of their predicament.
As soon as Tan Zhenghong entered, he lifted the red cloth from the tray, "This was found at Guanyin Temple."
In four hours, he had made a trip to Guanyin Temple, and though he was exhausted, he radiated an air of triumph.
Because he had found the evidence of Li Mu’er raising the urn technique.
Tan Zhenghong lifted the red cloth on the tray, revealing a vessel engraved with complex patterns and a heap of strange herbs, all unique to Southern Xinjiang.
This was the real ace up his sleeve; Qin Longyun’s aimless wandering in the Prefecture Officer was merely to divert Prince Liang’s attention.
The reason was simple, after arriving at the Prefecture Officer, Li Mu’er had always been with Prince Liang, making it nearly impossible for her to engage in forbidden techniques; the only possibility was that she had already prepared the urn technique while at Guanyin Temple.
"Your Highness, now you can hand over Li Mu’er, right?"
Tan Zhenghong’s face showed a trace of urgency.
Duo’er’s condition was critical. The sooner the antidote was created, the less danger she faced.
"The Side Concubine indeed has unforgivable sins. I had her put to death last night. You are welcome to flog or expose her corpse according to the law, and I also agree, but my guards carelessly threw her body into Chaotic Burial Mound. I’m afraid wild dogs have scavenged her by now," said Prince Liang with an expression of regret.
Tan Zhenghong clenched his teeth and said, "At this point, do you still think you can fob us off?"
"There is no need for me to cover up for a Sinful Consort. I can only promise to do my best to search for her. You may as well return and rest, and as soon as there is news, I will have someone inform you," said Prince Liang, clearly not taking the situation to heart. After all, Li Mu’er hadn’t been conjuring urn techniques under his watch, so no one could blame her.
Qin Longyun, holding back an emotionally charged Tan Zhenghong, said, "We thank Your Highness."
The numerous guards of Prince Liang would all be needed in the search for Li Mu’er.
"Your Highness, these people are far too excessive, completely disregarding you. Shall I dispose of them?" ask the Guard Commander considerately.
More than once, he had seen a murderous intent in the eyes of Prince Liang.
"They came with eight men, and now only five remain. If they were to die, my own safety would be at risk," said Prince Liang, clenching his fists, a reminder of today’s events etched in his mind.
One day, when he reigned supreme, he would sweep away all these stumbling blocks!
The guard bowed respectfully, "Your Highness is wise."
If they didn’t leave alive, it would surely cause an uproar throughout the city, and the Prince would inevitably be implicated in the bloodshed.
"Follow them, and report immediately if there is any situation," said Prince Liang, narrowing his eyes.
