I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Chapter 150 Public Enemy

"Prince Shun was killed last night!"

"What?! Where did you get the news??"

"It's spread all over the city and you don't know it! Didn't you see that the streets are full of official servants today!"

"Isn't the result of the assassination of the prince a few days ago not found out? Was it done by the same group?"

"Who knows, there are rumors that it is Xuantianhui."

"Xuantianhui? How could they kill Prince Shun?"

"You ask me who I will ask"

"Oh, what happened to Daning recently?"

"."

Just as Wei Changtian expected, the next day, the news that Prince Shun's family was exterminated spread throughout Shuzhou City like wings.

Ning Qingyu has been in Shuzhou for more than 20 years. He usually keeps a low profile and can write a good poem that is widely read from time to time. Therefore, most people still have a good impression of this prince.

But who knew that such a prince who had nothing to contend with in the world would die inexplicably like this?

In addition to regret and shock, the discussion about "who is behind the scenes" has spread rapidly, and it has almost become the favorite topic of every household after dinner.

The government is incompetent, a bunch of trash, I'm afraid they are colluding with bandits

The "Joint Investigation Team" from the capital faced unparalleled pressure for a while, and under this public opinion environment, the news from the palace soon spread to Shuzhou.

I haven't closed my eyes for three whole days after learning about this

In Wan Minzhao, Ning Yongnian's grief and indignation were beyond words, just hearing the edict read out by the official made people want to cry.

In addition to expressing the grief of losing his brother, he also said three things in Zhaozhong.

One is that the time to solve the case has been shortened from the previous "year ago" to ten days. The joint investigation team must solve the case within ten days, otherwise all members will be dismissed immediately and go home.

Second, after half a month, the imperial guards from the capital will personally escort Ning Qingyu's body back to the capital for burial.

The third is that the imperial court issued a super high reward of ten thousand taels of silver to encourage the people to actively provide clues about the missing Ning Yuke.

Public opinion and the emperor's order, under such heavy pressure, the joint investigation team tossed and turned in Tongtian, Shuzhou, and finally found the result "fulfilling the mission".

Eight days after the "Prince's Extermination of the Door" incident occurred.

Shuzhou Prefecture Yamen, Xuanjing Division, and Qingpao Army dispatched at the same time to destroy the Shuzhou sub-rudder of Xuantianhui in one fell swoop, and Bai Shengan, the incense master, was captured alive on the spot.

After a day and night of continuous interrogation, Bai Shengan not only admitted his crime, but also revealed a "shocking" secret——

The two assassinations against Ning Qingyu were all instigated by Ning Yuke, the Princess of Rou'an!

Although this thing sounds so unreliable, it is reasonable to some extent.

Bai Shengan is a mortal man, there is no reason to slander Ning Yuke before he dies.

What's more, why is Ning Yuke mysteriously missing when everyone else is dead?

Even if she really escaped by luck, why didn't she show up for so long?

Even though there are still many doubts, when all the contradictions point to Ning Yuke, most people already have an obvious answer in their hearts——

Ning Yuke has a ghost in her heart! Don't dare to show up!

People are always willing to believe what they want to believe, but it is difficult to detect whether this "willingness" is their own subjective "willingness".

Therefore, the first-class joint investigation team made the investigation results public. Although it did not clearly state that Ning Yuke was behind the scenes in the document, the passionate public anger was still instantly ignited.

The behavior of beating and murdering parents and other elders is called "evil rebellion", which is a capital offense in the Daning law.

And from a moral point of view, especially in this world that values ​​family values ​​very much, it would not be a pity to die a hundred times for such a bad behavior.

For a while, the people of Shuzhou City and even the entire dynasty were trying their best to scold Ning Yuke.

That is to say, there is no Weibo these days, otherwise Ning Yuke would probably be sprayed with autism.

In addition to scolding, whether it is ordinary people or various forces in the open or in the dark, they are all curious about one thing——

Where did Ning Yuke, who seemed to have evaporated from the world, go?

"Princess, this is the notice posted by the state government just today, please take a look."

"it is good."

In the dark room where the sun was not visible, Ning Yuke's face was a little pale. I don't know if it was because she didn't have a good rest in the past few days, or because she hadn't seen the sun for too long.

She gently took the rice paper full of characters from Wei Changtian's hand, and after reading it slowly with her head down, she couldn't help showing a wry smile on her face.

"My lord, are people all over the world scolding me?"

"yes."

Wei Changtian did not deceive Ning Yuke with "good intentions", but replied truthfully: "Although it is not clearly stated in the notice, most people do think so."

"."

Ning Yuke's lips trembled slightly, and she lowered her head even lower.

"I see."

"If the princess is fine, then I will go up first."

Wei Changtian nodded: "Tomorrow I may have to go out on business for a few days. During this period, Yuan'er will come to bring you meals and a change of clothes as usual. I also ask the princess to live in peace of mind. I will talk about other things when I come back."

"Ok"

Ning Yuke first responded softly, and then suddenly stopped Wei Changtian who was about to leave.

"Master, son. I, I have one more request."

"What is it?"

"I saw the notice saying that the bones of my father and Little Sister will be sent back to the capital to bury me. I want to take a last look at them when they leave."

"Princess."

Wei Changtian turned around, frowning slightly: "Do you know the risks involved?"

"I"

Ning Yuke's body trembled slightly, and her voice was very low: "Yes, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have caused such trouble to the young master."

"Also please forgive me, my lord."

"."

Alas, the net gives me a problem.

Wei Changtian sighed inwardly.

It is understandable for Ning Yuke to have such thoughts. After all, the whole family is dead, and it is human nature to want to see her off for the last time.

But the risk of this matter is too great, Wei Changtian even suspected that Ning Yongnian insisted on transporting the body back to the capital for burial, just to take the opportunity to catch Ning Yuke out.

Looking at Ning Yuke, who has now become a "public enemy", Wei Changtian hesitated for a while, but he still didn't say anything to death.

"I'll think about it."

"Thanks, thank you son! Thank you son!"

Ning Yuke was taken aback when she heard the words, and then her face was full of excitement: "I just need to take a look from a distance, and that's all."

"Princess, I didn't promise you."

Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes, and said in an impatient tone, "Please also remember what you promised in the carriage that night."

"I can help you, but I can't help a burden!"

"burden."

Ning Yuke closed her mouth instantly, her breathing was short at first, and then gradually became steady.

After a few breaths, she suddenly stood up slowly from the chair, then slowly put her hands on her forehead, and knelt down in front of Wei Changtian in the most humble posture.

The long white skirt is like a blooming peony, and the black and soft silk is scattered on the ground, as if it is also expressing submission.

"Young master, the servants will not dare anymore."
