C149 (2/2)

Su Li repeated what Jian Zhihang had just said, ”The situation now is already very clear. Witch Clan Member has appeared, do you plan to report this matter?”

”Not yet, in case it hurts the innocent.”

Su Li took a deep breath. She could understand Mo Lianjin's worry, the Emperor An was afraid of the Witch Clan Member, so after knowing the place they were looking at, it would definitely cause a huge commotion.

Mo Lianjin pursed his lips and suddenly stopped moving. He stood in front of a stall that sold headdress items.

There was a multi-colored pearl hairpin on the stall. It looked cheap, but it was also beautifully crafted.

He picked one and tucked it into her hair.

Su Li didn't think that he would come here, she only felt that the pressure of the pearl hairpin had caused her to be unable to raise her head.

Mo Lianjin threw a piece of silver to the vendor and walked straight ahead.

Only then did Su Li slowly extend his hand out and touched the pearl hairpin as he followed closely behind.

”With regards to everything in the Witch Clan, only the imperial clan of the Nan Yin knew of it back then. After the destruction of the Nan Yin, Royal Grandfather annihilated the Witch Clan and the imperial clan of the Nan Yin. The amount of people remaining in the Witch Clan should not be many.” Mo Lianjin explained as he walked.

”Looks like this case isn't easy to investigate.” Su Li muttered softly.

Only after returning to the Duke Palaces did she take out Jian Zhihang's letter and read it.

There was a coiled snake drawn on it, and with a few simple strokes, the characteristics of the snake were revealed.

Other than that, there was another sentence, ”This is the totem of the Witch Clan Member. Every Witch Clan Member has something related to totems on their body.”

Su Li squinted her eyes. The snake pattern drawn by Jian Zhihang was the same as the one she had drawn on Juan Niang's corpse.

”He even knows the totem of the Witch Clan Member?” Mo Lianjin lifted half her lips, strands of profound meaning flashed past her eyes, ”Interesting.”

The next day.

Wang Quanan followed the results of Su Li's autopsy and looked for the man wearing the snake shaped jade pendant as if he was looking for a needle in a haystack, as well as checking the relationships between the Juan Niang s.

Mo Lianjin did not allow Su Li to leave the capital, so he personally sent people to the other cities to retrieve their case files and get a clear understanding of the situation.

What was unexpected was that on the side of the Wang Family, there was a piece of paper containing Madame Ji as a wife.

The justice courts, for some reason, had yet to send news to the Madame Ji.

Crown Prince's Palace.

Zuo Shaochen from Prime Minister's Mansion, Ji Xuanyuan from Assistant Minister Mansion, and Su Nianyu from General's Mansion were all present.

Ji Zhongshu was dressed in a tight suit. His eyebrows were thick and dark, and the corners of his eyes were raised. One look was enough to tell that he wasn't a good person.

”Crown Prince, that Su Li humiliated my Ji Clan like this, I vow to never leave her.”

Mo Lianxuan sat in the seat of honor, his five fingers that had been placed on the armrest clenched together, veins popping out from the back of his hand.

How could he not want to be sworn enemies with Su Li?

That damnable woman, he had lowered himself so much that she didn't even spare him a glance.

Since he couldn't obtain it, he would destroy it!

”Your family's reputation has just been tarnished. Look at my family, Shaoyuan is in jail and Shaohai died miserably. Even his corpse couldn't be identified, it's still sitting in the manor.”

When Zuo Shaochen spoke, he was so angry that his entire body was trembling.

The two of them looked at Su Nianyu at the same time, and said at the same time, ”Su Li is your little sister, could it be that you can't do anything to her?”

”Now that she's hiding in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, what can I do to her?” Su Nianyu clenched his fists tightly, and carefully looked at the crown prince. Seeing that the crown prince did not alienate him, he then sighed a breath of relief, ”Tomorrow, she will enter the palace, and go treat Lord National Advisor's eyes. It's fine if she can't, but what if she is cured …”

Boom! *

Mo Lianxuan slapped the armrest heavily, ”You guys can't even deal with a woman, what do I need you for?”

”Crown Prince …” Su Nianyu pursed his lips, thinking of his mother and sister's plans, ”It's not like there are no methods …”
