Before he could step out of the prison, a figure rushed over in a hurry. Who else could it be but Xue Zhan, who had just returned to the yamen?
Seeing the look on Xue Zhan's face, Liu Rumei's expression darkened again. "What's going on?"
Xue Zhan pursed his lips and said to A Nan and Liu Rumei, "The Xu family has been massacred."
Hearing this, both Liu Rumei and Xiao Heyuan gasped. The Xu family had been massacred?
A cold glint flashed in A Nan's eyes.
Xue Zhan then added, "I've already ordered the bodies to be brought back."
Liu Rumei and Xiao Heyuan exchanged a look and then walked out of the prison.
Xue Zhan followed behind them and couldn't help rubbing his aching temples. He always felt that this matter was getting more and more complicated.
When they arrived at the yamen, although it was night, it was brightly lit. There were more than a dozen corpses laid out in the courtyard.
Naturally, Xue Zhan didn't step into the courtyard. Instead, he returned to the main hall through the back door, not daring to look at the corpses.
Liu Rumei and Xiao Heyuan's faces were filled with cold anger. Looking at the corpses on the ground, they felt a chill in their hearts.
Liu Rumei stepped forward and walked to the body of Mrs. Xu. Looking at the long and thin wound on her neck, her eyes were filled with frost. She squatted down and, after a moment, came to a conclusion. "She died an hour ago. The wound was also caused by the Snow Region silk."
She was extremely familiar with such a wound. However, she believed that it wasn't Heng Niang who did it. Someone was trying to frame her.
A Nan also nodded. A cold aura surrounded him. He was completely different from the carefree A Nan before.
They had hoped to get some clues from Mrs. Xu, but they never expected the murderer to give them such a "surprise"!
Liu Rumei and Xiao Heyuan divided the work. After about half an hour, they came to a conclusion.
They walked into the main hall. Looking at the man sitting in the main seat sipping tea leisurely, they said indifferently, "The murderers were not just one person. The wound on Mrs. Xu was caused by the Snow Region silk, while the wounds on the others were different. They should have been caused by swords and knives. They all died about an hour ago."
The fact that there was no sound during the massacre of the Xu family showed that the murderer was extremely skilled. Without alarming anyone, the murderer massacred the entire Xu family while the servants were completely unprepared. The means were extremely cruel.
But why did they go to such great lengths? What was the benefit of massacring the Xu family?
Xue Zhan was also extremely puzzled about this. He could only pin his hopes on Mo Liandi, hoping that he could find some clues.
At this time, Mo Liandi sneaked into the Chu mansion silently. Without any effort, he found the courtyard where Chu Huaikang was staying.
Chu Huaikang was sleeping soundly in his arms with a naked beauty. Suddenly, he had a bad premonition. A chill ran down his spine, and his body's instinct woke him up.
"Who are you?" Anyone would be greatly startled if they saw a stranger suddenly appear in their room in the middle of the night and the temperature in the room dropped significantly.
Chu Huaikang couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He subconsciously grabbed the dagger under his pillow.
Chu Huaikang's sudden movement also woke up the beauty in her sleep. "Ah! Stab..."
Before she could finish her words, something suddenly flew towards her from the front. It grazed her fair neck. There was a slight pain from the abrasion on her neck, but she didn't dare to make a sound. Her beautiful eyes were filled with fear.
She could only shiver and hide behind Chu Huaikang, trying to curl herself up.
With the moonlight outside the window, Chu Huaikang finally saw the face of the person clearly. His heart skipped a beat. He forced a smile and said, "I didn't expect the Prince of National Security to come late at night. I'm sorry for not greeting you properly."
The woman hiding behind him was slightly stunned. She mustered up the courage to look up, but she only saw a side face. However, she was soon frightened by the cold aura around him.
Mo Liandi's face was filled with frost. He said coldly, "Where is Heng Niang?"
Chu Huaikang was filled with fear. "I don't know what you mean, my lord. Who is Heng Niang?"
Mo Liandi hooked his lips into a smile, but it was like the smile from the depths of hell. "Fine. Tell your master that if she doesn't know her place, I don't mind teaching her a lesson."
She could seek revenge if she wanted to, but if she involved Liu Liu, he would never show mercy.
These threatening words made Chu Huaikang's heart skip a beat again. Just as he was about to speak, the person in front of him suddenly disappeared.
Chu Huaikang looked at the silent night around him. His eyes were filled with coldness. What a powerful Mo Liandi! He really deserved to be the God of War Prince. He had managed to track him down in such a short time!
The beauty hiding behind him let out a sigh of relief when she saw Mo Liandi leave. She snuggled tightly against Chu Huaikang's side. "My lord..."
Suddenly, a sharp pain came. The words on her lips were never uttered. She looked at the person in front of her in disbelief and unwillingly swallowed her last breath.
Chu Huaikang immediately got up, put on his outer robe, and said with a gloomy face, "Clean it up."
"Yes!"
As he stepped out of the room, a person walked towards him. "My lord, it's bad. The person has been taken away."
Chu Huaikang couldn't help grinding his teeth. His eyes were filled with cold and gloomy anger. "What a powerful Prince of National Security."
"Inform the master immediately."
"Yes."
This Mo Liandi was really not to be underestimated.
At this time, in the Prince of National Security's Mansion, Liu Rumei looked extremely tired and frowned tightly.
Mo Liandi subconsciously smoothed her frown. "What's wrong?"
Liu Rumei immediately told him everything about the Xu family. "I always feel that this matter is not simple."
A cold glint flashed in Mo Liandi's eyes. "Indeed. It seems that we have to wait for Heng Niang to wake up to find out the situation."
Hearing this, Liu Rumei and A Nan were slightly stunned. Then they were overjoyed. "You've found Heng Niang?"
Mo Liandi nodded with a gentle smile. "Yes."
Looking at the equally excited A Nan, Mo Liandi added, "Heng Niang's condition is not very optimistic. I've already invited a doctor."
A Nan's heart sank. Looking at the light in Liu Rumei's room, he immediately pushed the door open and walked in.
Liu Rumei also followed closely behind.
When they walked into the room, the sight of Heng Niang, who had become extremely thin in just two days, made their hearts sink.
A frostiness appeared in Liu Rumei's eyes. "Was it Chu Huaikang?"
A Nan's killing aura surged. He wished he could take her pain for her.
Mo Liandi stepped forward and pulled her into his arms. He said coldly, "There's someone behind Chu Huaikang."
It was very likely that they were not only targeting Liu Liu. Maybe Heng Niang knew something or had found something!
A Nan pursed his lips and stood silently in front of Heng Niang's bed. His eyes were filled with malice. Even the doctor couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"When shall we take action?"
