Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 596 Infighting

  Seeing Chu Nanzhi's figure, Ji Wanying was very surprised: "Why is my cousin here?"

   "Oh? Can't I be here?"

  Chu Nanzhi immediately asked back: "Where does the princess think this palace should be at this time?"

   Until this time, she realized belatedly, and after thinking about it for a long time, she actually forgot about this person.

  Ji Wanying is the daughter of An Guogong Ji Huaili and the eldest princess Lin Yanjun, and the granddaughter of the Empress Dowager. Naturally, she is someone she can't afford to offend.

  Furthermore, Lin Jinxiao's biological mother, Concubine Ji, is the daughter of Ji's parents, and his biological father, Prince Ting'an, is also the brother and sister of Princess Yanjun's mother. With such a complicated but closer relationship, few people dare to provoke her.

   No wonder Lin Yanting felt lingering fear when he brought up this matter today, and refused to reveal half a word.

  Ji Wanying felt eccentric when she heard her answer to herself, and felt even more dissatisfied. There was a hint of anxiety in her tone, and she said:

"Brother Cen An and I were in the city just now and heard that there was a murder case in Anlin Village. It was my cousin's younger brother who was killed. If I hadn't rushed to see my uncle, I would have followed Cen An when something like this happened. Brother An went there, shouldn't my cousin, as the sister-in-law of Lin's parents, be by my cousin's side at this time?"

   Glancing at Chu Nanzhi resentfully, Ji Wanying complained with resentment in her eyes: "My cousin still has the leisure to come to my uncle's courtyard to talk, which is a bit unreasonable both emotionally and rationally."

   "Princess, stop talking nonsense."

  Yin Liuxuan immediately reprimanded: "The concubine's sister-in-law just came back from outside the city, and she came here to inquire about the whereabouts of the murderer with my father."

   "Ask my uncle about the murderer's whereabouts?"

Ji Wanying sneered and said: "This is a strange thing. Uncle is only new to Luyan Port. How could he know the murderer's whereabouts? However, there are rumors in the city that the cousin-in-law murdered Brother Jinhong with private revenge. I don't know how my cousin thinks about it?"

   "Wanying, don't be rude."

  Yin Sinian frowned when he heard this. This girl is really bold. When she looked at Ji Wanying, her face immediately became sullen: "How can those people in the market place be trustworthy if they gossip about their tongues."

  Chu Nanzhi indifferently interrupted Yin Sinian's scolding of the princess, and casually looked at her:

"It is quite reasonable for the princess to have such doubts. I am still wondering at this moment. The news of Lin Erlang's death was only reported to the city this morning, and it was Liu Li who was reporting it to me and your cousin. At that time, not only the news of his death was already known to the whole city, but even the events that happened in Puluo'an that day were so coincidental that the city was suddenly full of uproar at this juncture."

After a few seconds of silence, she pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "The princess thinks this is really just a coincidence or someone has ulterior motives? After all, apart from my palace and a few confidantes knowing about the affairs of Puluoan that day, the rest should be The instigator behind the scenes."

  “If you want others to not know, unless you can’t do it yourself.”

Ji Wanying also smiled coldly and said: "The concubine's sister-in-law wants to hide the truth and hide the festival between you and brother Jinhong, but she doesn't know that this kind of thing will see the light of day sooner or later, just like the grievances between you and Prince Xie, You thought you could hide it from the world, but you never thought that it would be known to everyone in the end."

   "Rumors are just rumors. Since your cousin and I dare to show our faces, I have never been afraid of being hurt by rumors."

  Chu Nanzhi stared at her indifferently, and said quite meaningfully:

"The princess is still young, and her understanding of the world is still shallow after all. Being a cousin has no other skills. This time I will teach you how to see the world clearly. Even if this rumor is fierce, it is just a rumor in the market. People talk fast after dinner, even if you think it is true, it must be proven, otherwise it is just slander out of thin air, on the contrary, what the princess said just now, once something is done, it will be done soon, and it will be seen in the light of day Yes, no matter how deep you hide, you can't escape the obvious truth."

Standing up unhurriedly, the corners of Chu Nanzhi's mouth slightly raised and curled up into a wicked smile: "Your cousin, I have always liked to find out the secrets hidden in the darkness from the clues, and the most proud thing in my life is also like to delve into those secrets. Unknown deeds, this is much more interesting than slandering others blindly with empty words."

   "Even rumors are never groundless."

  Ji Wanying smiled calmly: "My cousin has also handled many major cases, I think you should understand this."

  Yin Sinian, Yin Liuxuan and his son listened for a long time, and then gradually realized that the two were suspicious of each other.

  This is really not good.

  Yin Sinian quickly dissuaded him: "Princess, Princess, this is not the time to be suspicious of each other and fight each other."

   As he spoke, staring at Ji Wanying closely, Yin Sinian's face darkened, and he said earnestly:

"Princess, don't blame your cousin for talking too much to you. There is no reason to punish someone with a few rumors. Besides, your cousin and sister-in-law were busy dealing with the affairs of the posthouse yesterday, so there is no time to go Murdering a prodigal boy in the village, your cousin is now a princess, isn't that tolerant?"

  Although she has known Chu Nanzhi not long ago, it can be seen from her words and demeanor that this woman is a person with great wisdom and grand structure, and she will definitely not ruin her own future by venting her anger to kill someone because of a trivial matter at home.

  “Rumours start with the wise, thrive with the fool, and start with the plotter.”

Yin Sinian looked at Ji Wanying again with deep eyes: "After the princess is Zhongliang, both father and mother are the pillars of the country. You should have this kind of knowledge. It is obvious that someone deliberately framed you to confess to you today." Sister-in-law, the Empress Dowager has treated you well all these years, so if you follow suit, wouldn’t it be a pain to your loved ones and a joy to your enemies.”

   "Uncle, I'm just talking about the facts. Why should my uncle be so protective of my cousin?"

  Ji Wan was full of anger, however, those relatives who loved her the most in the past seemed to be possessed by evil spirits, and they wanted to favor her cousin for no reason.

With tears in his eyes, Ji Wanying retorted aggrievedly: "I just think that brother Jinxiao's younger brother died tragically. At this time, my cousin should stay by his side and comfort him, instead of being indifferent. Wouldn't it be more authentic? Those rumors are not groundless."

  Glaring at Chu Nanzhi angrily and sadly, Ji Wanying pouted her mouth and sneered coldly: "Brother Jinhong is still a life if he doesn't help. Cousin shouldn't be so indifferent, you are his elder sister-in-law."

   "It seems that Princess Wanying is very sorry for the death of your brother Jinhong, and wants to avenge him, right?"

  The angry fire in Chu Nanzhi's eyes burst out immediately, and he shouted with righteous words: "Okay, today your cousin sister-in-law, I will fulfill you, avenge the wrong of the deceased, and let the murderer bring justice to justice."

   After finishing speaking, she looked at Sang Qi by the door, and ordered resolutely: "Sang Qi, tell His Highness to return to the city immediately, and it is reported that the magistrate of Peng County and the officials of the county government will come to Yuanlai Restaurant to meet up."

  When several people heard this, they were all stunned, not knowing what she was going to do.
