Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 1108

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why are you so sure?"

Qian Liu shook her head, "I'm not sure. But from the investigation results of the secret guards, he is the most suspicious."

"The secret guards found out that when he worked as the grand tutor, he had a good relationship with Xia Houjing. He appreciated Xia Houjing very much and often praised him as his best disciple. The two of them had a close relationship. Even after Lord Ling resigned, Xia Houjing often visited him. There was even a rumor that he was going to marry Lord Ling's daughter, but Miss Ling suddenly fell ill and died."

Yun Shang asked in surprise, "Is that true?"

Qian Liu nodded, "But it seems that Xia Houjing wanted to avoid suspicion after your majesty and his majesty came to the Jin city, so the contact between Xia Houjing and Lord Ling is suddenly reduced."

"In addition, the secret guard also found that Wenshu Bookstore where Hua Yutong visited after she returned to Jin city was not only frequently visited by Prince Xian, but also by Lord Ling. On the day Hua Yutong went to Wenshu Bookstore, Lord Ling also went there."

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes. At that time, she and Luo Qingyan found Wenshu Bookstore because of Liu Yinfeng's sudden departure from the Jin city. They didn't expect that Lord Ling was involved in this matter.

In this way, it was uncertain whether Hua Yutong contacted Liu Yinfeng or Lord Ling in Wenshu Bookstore that day.

Yun Shang leafed through the pamphlet and nodded, "Yes, as you said, from the information collected by the secret guards, the most suspicious one is indeed Ling Hai."

"Yes." Qian Liu echoed in a low voice, and then continued, "But that's why I feel that it's strange. The former grand tutor had a close relationship with Xia Houjing. We could find so many things with only one investigation. If Lord Ling is the last chip that Xia Houjing has prepared, it would be too conspicuous..."

Yun Shang nodded, "Yes. So, what do you think of it?"

Qian Liu meditated for a moment and said, "In my opinion, there are two possibilities. One is that Lord Ling is deliberately put forward by Xia Houjing to attract our attention. In fact, he has nothing to do with Xia Houjing.

"The second is that Lord Ling is indeed Xia Houjing's man. The reason why we can find so many things is that he did it on purpose. He deliberately made us feel that no one would put their last chip so conspicuous. Then we might just ignore him. If we did so, we would just fall into his trap."

Yun Shang nodded with a smile, "It's not in vain to stay with me for so long. If it were you, what would you do?"

Qian Liu kept silent for a moment, and then looked at Yun Shang carefully. "I have thought of two ways."

"Tell me."

"One is that we'd rather kill one thousand people by mistake than let go of one. Let's keep an eye on Lord Ling. No matter whether or not he is really Xia Houjing's last bargaining chip, we'll keep an eye on him, so that he won't have any chance to take advantage of us." "Okay." Yun Shang smiled, "It's a very safe way. What about the second one?"

"The second one is that we pretend to be trapped. We no longer focus on Lord Ling and continue to investigate others and find suspicious targets. Just wait him to show his true color."

Hearing what Qian Liu said, Yun Shang raised her eyebrows and said, "So, in fact, you think it's more likely that Ling Hai is indeed Xia Houjing's men, don't you? You think all the information we found out is deliberately released by Ling Hai to deceive us, so that we can think that he is so conspicuous that he can't be the last bargaining chip of Xia Houjing? "

"Yes."
