Chapter 2663 Prime Minister Jin is not a stepping stone

After Prime Minister Shi sent everyone to the Dali Temple, he was not idle either. He took people to the villa of Princess Zhaoxia.

So far, even the princess of the Feather Clan has been found, but Liu Xiyan has disappeared completely without leaving any clues.

For both public and private reasons, it is impossible for Prime Minister Shi to let go of any of the people involved.

For a little maid like Liu Xiyan to run away and hide, there must be someone helping her in secret. I originally thought it was Zhong Shanlang.

However, Zhong Shanlang is in a difficult situation now and cannot use his means on others, so there must be someone else assisting Liu Xiyan.

If you follow this vine upwards, you might make a surprising discovery.

After a day, everyone in the villa had been thoroughly interrogated and could no longer provide any useful clues.

However, Prime Minister Shi did not give up and ordered a carpet search around the area to see if they could find any new movements.

After spending half a day, he actually found a new clue.

The imperial guards brought a father and son, who were dressed simply and even shabbily, before Prime Minister Shi.

The man was a woodcutter who lived nearby and made a living by chopping wood. He had a beard and looked very honest and reserved. The son, on the other hand, was lively and active, and looked at Prime Minister Shi curiously with his big eyes.

"You don't have to be nervous. Something happened here yesterday. I just want to ask you, since you came here to chop wood yesterday, did you see anyone or anything strange?"

The Prime Minister was in a friendly mood and took out three beautiful little silver beads and gave them to the little boy.

The woodcutter looked at Xiao Yinzhu in surprise, rubbed his hands nervously, and hesitated for a long time.

"I saw a few people carrying a girl away stealthily." The little boy played with the little silver beads and said clearly what his father could not say.

Prime Minister Shi's eyes lit up. "Oh? Did you see clearly what they looked like and went in that direction?"

This question stumped the little boy.

He tilted his head and thought seriously, then said uncertainly: "It seems... they went to the south of the city. They are all very strong, um... one of them seems to have a purple scar on his hand."

Sometimes it is God's will. Most people may not be able to see the scar on a stranger's hand, but the little boy is playful and curious. He likes to take a closer look at everything he sees, and as a result, he saw an important clue.

Prime Minister Shi frowned deeply, and then asked the guards to take the woodcutter and his son back and settle them down first. After all, they were important witnesses and no mistakes could be made.

After standing there for a while, Prime Minister Shi finally shook his head and ordered everyone to withdraw their troops and follow him back to the palace.

Now that things have been investigated to this point, it is time for him to go to the palace again to meet the emperor.

He still had to ask the emperor for his opinion on what to do next and to what extent.

The Dali Temple was also not idle. They interrogated all the members of the Feather Clan one by one. It didn't matter if one of them didn't speak, but with so many people there would always be some who didn't keep their mouths shut.

By the evening, they had already obtained a lot of useful information by pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud. It was basically certain that someone in the capital was colluding with the Yu Clan, and this time they wanted to attack Prime Minister Shi, so they chose Shi Li and wanted to kidnap her to threaten Prime Minister Shi.

The accident happened to the princess of the Feather Clan.

She hated Lu Shenyuan for killing her father and brother on the battlefield, so she couldn't control herself and wanted to kill Shi Li directly, which caused conflicts with other members of the Yu Clan.

The result is that something unexpected happened and now everyone has been caught.

But who exactly colluded with the Feather Clan, not only helping them sneak out of the villa, but also sneaking into Princess Chaoxia's villa, has not yet been interrogated.

The other party has always been very cautious and never shows his true self in front of people, so the Feather Clan doesn't know who he is.

The emperor had just finished listening to the report from the Dali Temple when the prime minister came to ask for a meeting.
