Chapter 605 Fish, so many fish! (3)
Duke Chen's violent behavior just now had already attracted the attention of the guests in the garden, and now the woman's words were heard word for word by those nearby.
Lin Yuzan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he couldn't help but look at Leng Mengwan.
Leng Mengwan had been paying attention to Lin Yuzan. The sudden eye contact made her shy. A charming blush appeared on her face and her eyes were filled with ripples.
Lin Yuzan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and speechlessly withdrew his gaze. Immediately afterwards, he was met with angry glares from the Wang brothers and their daughter.
Xiao Yining: [○?`Д′? ○], not observing male ethics, looking around indiscriminately.
Wang Cheng glanced coldly at his old rival and calmly switched places with him.
At the same time, Wang Lin snorted coldly, took a step forward, blocked the heroine's sight, and looked over with a burning gaze.
Lin Yuzan: ...
He turned back uncomfortably and looked at his wife, only to see her smile at him and whisper to him, "Don't worry, my husband. No one saw it at the time."
Lin Yuzan nodded with great satisfaction and was moved in his heart: Wan Niang still understands me the best.
Then, Wan Niang looked at Leng Mengwan and said her own speculation: "However, I'm afraid that Miss Leng's nonsense will lead to reprimand."
As soon as she finished speaking, Sheng Jingzhan's unhappy voice came from the front: "The matter has not been concluded yet, why are you butting in?"
Leng Mengwan instinctively shrank back with a look of grievance in her eyes. She looked in the direction of Lin Yuzan again, but was met with Wang Lin's cold eyes. She saw his thick lips under the mask curved towards her in a bloodthirsty arc.
She was startled and quickly looked away, acting like an invisible person.
Sheng Jingzhan did not notice that the heroine was looking at a married man. He just glanced at Wang Lin who was unwilling to look away, and said to her in a softer tone, "Don't do that next time. Remember that."
Leng Mengwan nodded hurriedly. She raised her eyes again and stole a glance at Wang Lin. She swallowed subconsciously and hid her body behind the magpie.
This little episode naturally caught the attention of many people, but most of them looked at it with a look of indifference and did not comment on the matter.
As Wang Cheng guessed, this flower-viewing banquet had changed its flavor and people had already lost interest in staying. Seeing that King Yu had given out a prize, many people came forward to bid farewell to Duke Chen.
Duke Chen nodded helplessly and was about to express his apologies as the host.
Unexpectedly, Sheng Jingzhan spoke first: "Duke Chen, wait a minute. Since something happened in your house, you'd better investigate it thoroughly. If my brother hears about it, he might blame you for being negligent and ignoring the murder of the family of an official of the imperial court."
Duke Chen replied unhappily, "Prince Yu is worrying too much. There are servants guarding everywhere in my garden. When the incident happened just now, no one left the garden. The thief must have sneaked in from outside, and the palace is already searching for him."
Sheng Jingzhan didn't seem to be going to give up, and continued: "This servant is only staring at the distinguished guests, but I'm afraid no one cares about the servants around them."
As soon as these words were spoken, the guests who were about to leave began to make a commotion and whisper to each other.
Another person stepped forward and asked, "King Yu, what's the meaning of this? We have no grudges against the Minister of Personnel, so why would we harm Miss Jiang?"
"That's right. It's impossible for one or two people to throw Miss Jiang into the river, not to mention that she had to keep her clothes dry and not get stained by the river mud."
"Prince Yu, if you look at Young Master Wang and Princess Jiahe's son-in-law, you will know that it is impossible for any of us to harm Miss Jiang."
Everyone echoed the theory, obviously extremely dissatisfied with this kind of dirty tricks.
Sheng Jingzhan raised his eyes slightly, staring at the few people who stepped forward sarcastically: "If you haven't done it, why are you afraid? I am not an unreasonable person. You just need to ask the servants to let my guards interrogate you. It won't take much time."
As he said this, he looked at Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng who were pointed out by others, "There are only two people who are not suspected. I will let you go. If the emperor asks me for an explanation tomorrow, what should I do?"
When everyone saw the emperor being carried out, although they were unwilling, they had to shut their mouths in dismay.
Duke Chen was already furious, and upon hearing this, his temper exploded: "Prince Yu, you are overdoing it! What happened in my house should be solved by my house. You are making things difficult for my guests. Do you really think that I will take the late emperor's will into consideration and not dare to touch you?"
Sheng Jingzhan turned his eyes to look at the angry Duke Chen and his son, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The situation suddenly came to a standstill. Wang and Lin, who were outside the dispute, looked at each other helplessly, with an expression of "this was expected".
Xiao Yining also complained about this tit-for-tat scene. She knew that the male protagonist was doing bad things under the banner of his uncle.
At this moment, without any warning, the little kid felt a piercing chill all over his body, and even his heart skipped a beat as if startled.
She was still wondering where this inexplicable ominous sign came from when she heard a strange noise in her ears. At the same time, her father quickly bent down while holding her and rolled on the ground.
When little Yining came to his senses covered in dust, he heard countless screams of terror.
I saw more than a dozen wet black shadows jumping out from all directions of the garden like ghosts, holding sharp blades with flashing cold light, with clear targets, and rushing straight towards Wang Lin and Duke Chen and his son.
In an instant, the whole garden fell into chaos.
