Chapter 496 Tanlang is even more powerful(2/3)
"Since everything is fine and it was just a false alarm, I will go back first. If Rong Nushi takes such a big action next time, please don't forget me. After all..."
He smiled at the expressionless Rong Zhen:
"After all, Grand Siming and the teacher sent me here to assist Rong Nushi. Don't treat me like an outsider."
"Envoy Lin Lingtai, please come back."
"good."
After watching Lin Cheng and the female officials leave, Rong Zhen looked back at Ouyang Rong.
"Ouyang Lianghan, do you have anything else?"
Ouyang Rong nodded:
"Go up and have a cup of tea?"
Rong Zhen frowned slightly, but still agreed.
The two soon came to Qinghe's box on the third floor again.
As soon as he sat down, Ouyang Rong said directly without making tea:
"I have a clue below that I want to provide to Rong Nu Shi."
"What clue?"
Ouyang Rong said calmly:
"Clues to the original case of Wei Shaoxuan."
Rong Zhen immediately looked back and saw her frowning:
"Do you have a clue?"
Ouyang Rong's words are concise and comprehensive:
"I was the magistrate of Longcheng County last year, and I had experience in disaster relief and flood control, as well as the Liu Family Sword Shop.
"At the last Supervisory Council meeting, I did not intercede for Yunmeng Jianze because of the child bride matter. Instead, I felt that there was someone else, and Yunmeng Jianze might have been deliberately misled."
"Who do you think the murderer is?"
He lowered his head to clean the tea set and said slowly:
"Is it possible that Wei Shaoqi and his party were not killed in Yunmengze, but were killed as early as in Longcheng, and the Dingjian was cut off?"
"What's the meaning?"
Rong Zhen frowned in confusion.
"But besides Yunmeng Jianze, is there any other party nearby that can handle Qiu Shenji and Wei Shaoxuan silently?"
Ouyang Rong shook his head:
"I don't know. But Rong Nu Shi can ask Young Master Wei, did any of their people witness Wei Shaoxuan and Qiu Shenji appearing at the same time when they were in Longcheng?"
With a calm tone, he defended a certain Jianze and said:
"Since the owner of Dielianhua can pretend to be Wei Shaoxuan, why can't the whereabouts of Yunmeng Jianze also be fake?"
Rong Zhen thoughtfully said: "It makes sense. Ouyang Lianghan, what clues do you have?"
Ouyang Rong raised his eyes:
"I mentioned a suspicious person. Rong Zhen can go back and ask Wei Shaoqi and the others if they know about it."
"who?"
"The third son of the Liu family, Liu Zilin."
"Liu family?"
"Yes, the original Liu family of Longcheng." Ouyang Rong nodded. At the same time, he saw that Rong Zhen's expression was a little strange, and immediately asked: "Why, do you know Rong Nushi?"
"It's okay, just keep talking."
Ouyang Rong nodded:
"Back in Longcheng, the eldest and second young masters of the Liu family died one after another. Later, it was discovered that only the third young master of the Liu family was missing. No one was seen alive, and no body was found after he died."
Rong Zhen murmured: "Liu Zilin..."
Ouyang Rong nodded:
"Anyway, I haven't seen him again, and I don't know if anyone from the Wei family has seen him. If I'm not mistaken, Wei Shaoxuan's tripod sword is related to the Liu family's Guyue Sword Shop.
"Liu Zilin, as the third young master of the Liu family, most likely knows the secret of the tripod sword. Who can be unambitious about such a mythical thing? What's more, the three brothers of the Liu family are not good at all."
Rong Zhen suddenly said:
"I know that the eldest son of the Liu family, Liu Ziwen, was killed under the design of the second young man, Liu Zian. Liu Zi'an's death was also secretly planned by Liu Zilin."
Ouyang Rong looked at Rong Zhen with doubtful eyes.
"These are all revealed by Wei Shaoqi. I have gone to investigate the affairs of the Liu family in the past few days and have learned a little bit about them."
"No wonder Rong Nushi looked like that just now." Ouyang Rong was suddenly surprised and asked again: "What about Liu Zilin, who went to seek refuge with the Prince of Wei?"
Rong Zhen shook his head: "No, Wei Shaoqi said he was missing."
Ouyang Rong frowned:
"Looking at it this way, this Liu Zilin is indeed a bit suspicious.
"When Wei Shaoxuan and Qiu Shenji came to Longcheng, I saw that Liu Zilin had been following them. He was a bastard loyal to the Wei family. He should have collaborated with the Wei family to stab Liu Zian in the back.
"But then why didn't he go to Prince Wei's Mansion and receive generous rewards on behalf of the Liu family?"
Rong Zhen is thoughtful:
"If he wasn't dead, if there wasn't a ghost..."
She suddenly lowered her voice and said:
"Ouyang Lianghan, regarding the Liu family, Wei Shaoqi came to me last night and told me something privately, which is also an important clue."
"What...what clue?"
Ouyang Rong asked calmly:
"Why is there no news that Wei Shaoqi came to find you alone?"
"Well, no one else was informed."
Rong Zhen nodded, looked around, then narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"Wei Shaoqi sorted out Li Li's secret letters and learned from them that the Liu family once had a guest named Yu Zhi, who followed the evil ways of a magician. I heard that she could use a bronze mask to change the appearance of others.
"
Ouyang Rong suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"Bronze mask?"
Rong Zhen gritted his teeth: "Yes, the bronze mask, what a coincidence."
Ouyang Rong showed a solemn expression:
"In this way...well, isn't it connected?"
"That's right. The clues are connected."
Rong Zhen nodded heavily: "The missing Liu Zilin is indeed very suspicious."
There was silence between the two for a while, each with their own expressions on their faces, lost in thought.
Rong Zhen stood up:
"Ouyang Lianghan, your clue is very useful. I will go find Wei Shaoqi now to confirm the situation."
"good."
Ouyang Rong immediately stood up and the two of them walked out of the main building of Yunshui Pavilion.
Ouyang Rong sent Rong Zhen all the way to the backyard door.
He turned around, preparing to return to a waiting carriage in the courtyard.
Outside the courtyard gate, in the shadows beyond the reach of the lanterns, the cold and cold girl in palace clothes suddenly looked back:
"Ouyang Lianghan."
"What's wrong?"
"Tonight you said that you have selfish motives, but what if I tell you that I actually have selfish motives when I come to Xunyang City?"
Ouyang Rong asked:
"What selfish motives does Rong Nu Shi have?"
Rong Zhen stood with his sleeves in a long sleeve, and his specific expression could not be seen clearly.
After a while, Ouyang Rong asked cautiously: "Why don't you speak?"
