Chapter 60

~3 min read 569 words

After listening to Zhang Liang's narration, Zinu began to speak slowly, and then, she voiced the doubts in her heart.

"What problem?" Zhang Liang asked Zinu.

"Liu Yi was a capable subordinate under Ji Wuye. If Vulture wanted to take revenge on Liu Yi, he could have taken action at any time. Why did he wait until recently?" Zinu's doubt was not unreasonable.

Zhang Liang's brows furrowed, and he also fell into deep thought.

"Perhaps it is related to the treasure of the Fire Rain Manor!"

Han Fei put forward his own conjecture.

"Everyone, regarding Hong Yu's death, we now know that the murderer is Vulture. Hong Yu slept with Nong Yu, and Vulture's initial target was probably Nong Yu."

At the same time as Liu Yi died, a murder case actually occurred in Zilanxuan.

Nong Yu's maid Hong Yu died unexpectedly.

Han Fei and others were once puzzled and wanted to find the murderer to avenge Hong Yu, so they found some clues. They also heard that Left Sima Liu Yi was killed. If they could not figure out the causal relationship between these two things before,

then after Zhang Liang relayed the story Su Xuan told in the court, the wise Han Fei had keenly grasped the commonality.

That was... Baiyue!

On Nong Yu's body, there was a string of Fire Rain Agate, which came from the land of Baiyue, and it was even possible that it came from the Fire Rain Manor slaughtered by the Three Wolves of Broken Hair.

Vulture killed Hong Yu, which was probably an accidental injury; his real target was Nong Yu.

"Vulture killed Liu Yi, which can be said to be for revenge for his brothers and for the treasure of Fire Rain Duke. Why did he take action against Nong Yu?" Zhang Liang also voiced the doubts in his heart.

"This matter is indeed difficult to explain. Perhaps Vulture wanted to cut the weeds and dig up the roots for everyone involved in the Fire Rain Manor!" Han Fei guessed.

"Nong Yu is by our side, and Vulture is difficult to succeed. Liu Yi is also dead. If Vulture really wants to take action against everyone involved in the Fire Rain Manor, there are two more people who are probably within his target." Zinu spoke.

"Two people?" Zhang Liang soon guessed who they were. "Are they Hu Meiren and Hu Meiren?"

Liu Yi's wife, Hu Meiren, was the eldest daughter of the Fire Rain Manor back then, and her younger sister entered the palace and became a favored concubine of the King of Han.

Hu Meiren was in the palace, and it was extremely difficult for Vulture to take action, so there was a great possibility that he would go to Liu Yi's mansion again to take action against Hu Meiren.

Of course, Vulture taking revenge on everyone involved in the Fire Rain Manor was just Han Fei's guess, and whether it was true, no one could tell.

Not long after the court meeting ended, Su Xuan did not stay in the palace, but came to Liu Yi's mansion again.

Although he used the Technique of Penetrating the Nether to find out the murderer who killed Liu Yi.

But as long as Vulture was not captured, this case would never be settled.

He came here because of Hu Meiren's request; she seemed to have something important to ask Su Xuan.
