Huangfu Lingyao did not venture into any more deserted alleyways; instead, he headed towards the City God Temple.

Being a playful and foolish prince, there were plenty of things in the City God Temple that caught his attention.

He strolled in, eventually purchasing a windmill, and sat on a flowerbed, blowing on it for fun.

He wasnt the only one on the flowerbed. There were others behind him, and someone greeted him in a low voice, Your Highness.

The last time I asked you to investigate the matter of Liu Quan, what did you find? Huangfu Lingyao shook the windmill in his hand, swaying it back and forth.

If it didnt turn, he would just keep blowing!

A grown man, and he still looked so handsome. Who would engage in such childish antics?

No one would suspect that he was truly foolish; no one would think he was conspiring here. Even if they saw him talking, they would assume he was speaking to himself because his voice was too soft to be heard clearly.

Li Xin still wore the attire of a coachman, but today he had a straw hat on. The hats brim was pulled down low, covering his mouth.

He said helplessly, Why cant this matter be discussed at the palace? Why must it be here?

Hmm? Huangfu Lingyao didnt reply; he just made a sound.

Even though he only made a sound, Li Xin immediately became obedient, Ive checked. Its about the scrolls on the surface. Ive collected them and sent them to the secret chamber. Didnt you see them last night?

Huangfu Lingyao,

After returning to the palace last night, he was busy practicing his martial arts. He hadnt finished practicing when his wife came. He spent the whole night in ecstatic excitement. How could he have the mind to check if there were any scrolls on the table?

Nurturing his relationship with his wife took up most of his time!

Any suspicious points? He couldnt go back and look now; he believed Li Xin would have checked.

Indeed, Li Xin replied, I have outlined all the suspicious points, with two prominent ones. First, after Young Master Lius affairs were settled, his servants either left the Imperial Capital or theyre already dead!

Dead? This suspicion aligned with Liu Shimeis direction!

Huangfu Lingyao continued to fiddle with the wind-driven carriage and asked, What about the second point?

Li Xin answered, The second point concerns the one who died! Those maids and servants who never practiced martial arts are still alive, but the person who died was Young Master Lius personal bodyguardWu Qiang! My lord, dont you find this strange?bender

Huangfu Lingyao fell into silence.

Strange! How could it not be strange!

From Liang Yis account, it could be inferred that Wu Qiang truly deserved his name; he was strong in martial arts! While others hadnt died, the chief follower and bodyguard who accompanied Liu Quan on his travels had died later on?

After a while, he asked, How did he die?

Li Xin replied, After Young Master Liu passed away, Wu Qiang accepted his punishment and resigned, leaving the Imperial Capital to wander the Jianghu. Later, it seems he died in a vendetta within the Jianghu!

A vendetta in the Jianghu? Huangfu Lingyao asked, Isnt this a dead end for clues? Why is it suspicious?

Inwardly, Li Xin was furious, thinking, Why is the princes mind so sharp? He surely has his own thoughts. Why does he always test me?

But he didnt dare to say this out loud and honestly replied, The suspicious part is, during the confusion, where did Wu Qiang go and who gave him that letter? Thats one. Second, the information we received from the Jianghu confirms Wu Qiangs death. The one who conducted the autopsy was none other than the renowned inspector Lame Qi! Theres no reason for him to make a mistake. Wu Qiang wasnt a famous expert, so there wasnt much reason for people to doubt.

No, Huangfu Lingyao murmured, Its because he wasnt a great expert that having Lame Qi conduct the autopsy is suspicious that in itself is mysterious!

Li Xin fell silent.

Huangfu Lingyao took a deep breath and said, Follow this lead and continue the investigation!

After parting ways with Li Xin, Huangfu Lingyao returned to Fusheng Pavilion and found Liu Shimei had already returned.

She was inquiring, Where did His Highness go?
