The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 665 - Instigation

Chapter 665: Instigation

Xie Qiao did not take Meng Jifang’s words to heart.
Meng Jifang was extremely angry.
Zhao Xuanjing had already sent someone to capture Wang Lie and the others last night and handed them over to the criminal officer at the criminal division. After a night of torture, they uncovered many things.
This Wang Lie was indeed a carpenter, and his craftsmanship was not bad. A few years ago, he was fortunate enough to be introduced to work in a big household. As a result, he got to know many servants, guards, and even stewards. After that, he had a devious idea.
He specially found some people who were unemployed and did not make much progress in life. He interacted with them and taught them to “do good”!
Of course, it was only on the surface. Those people seemed to be learning carpentry skills from him, but in reality, they were doing some shady work with him.
With this kind of ability, not only did Wang Lie make a lot of money, his reputation in the village was pretty great.
Everyone thought this person was honest. Not only was he honest, he also guided others. His family, friends, and even the entire village did not think that there was anything wrong with him!
After this person was captured, he actually admitted to committing to quite a few cases!
Most of the cases involved wealthy families.
Most of them were merchants. For instance, one of the merchants was already old. The eldest and second son were fighting over the family property. The second son thought they could not compete, so he invited Wang Lie to stage an accident.
There was another family. It was a fight between the wife and the concubine. The wife thought the concubine was seductive and seduced her husband to harm the family. She asked Wang Lie to capture the concubine and sell her away.
He had always been careful in doing things.
Usually, he was only responsible for capturing people. If he did something dangerous, he would get more people to do it with him. In short, there must be a scapegoat!
The accomplice who died with the golden hairpin and the man who was scared to death by Xie Pinggang were actually scapegoats.
It was just that Wang Lie did not think that dead people could speak.
That night, Xie Qiao asked her eldest brother about the case.
“This Wang Lie said that the person who hired him was an aunt of the Dong family.” Xie Pinggang thought that it was Master Mo who told her, so he did not think too much about it. While eating, he explained to Xie Qiao, “Now he has gone to the Dong family and captured that aunt. She’s in prison now. After threatening her for one night, she will definitely tell the truth tomorrow.”
“It’s an aunt?” Xie Qiao thought for a moment and asked, “Do you know her name?”
“Her surname is Xia… Her parents’ status isn’t low either. She’s young.” Xie Pinggang did not hide anything.
With that said, Xie Qiao knew who she was.
She knew two aunties of the Dong family.
One was Dong Xiyun’s biological aunt, who was said to have entered the residence to take care of her, and the other was Xia Yayun, who had a very good relationship with Dong Xiyun.
If it was related to Xia Yayun…
Xie Qiao was almost certain that this matter had more to do with Dong Xiyun.
She had dealt with Xia Yayun quite a number of times before. This person was a fool, and Dong Xiyun had coaxed her into losing her mind.
She was initially a wealthy and noble person, but now that things had turned out this way, Xie Qiao could not help but sigh.
“You know her?” Xie Pinggang noticed Xie Qiao’s reaction and asked.
“Yes. This young lady was the one who made a bet with me in the past. She may be a little vicious, but her hatred is always inexplicable. She’s a person who is easily instigated by others,” Xie Qiao said.
“The possibility of her being instigated is indeed very high. I’ve already checked. This Aunt Xia doesn’t have many interactions with Young Lady Yuan. Even the eldest daughter of the Dong family has more reason to act than she did.” Xie Pinggang had a list of suspects.
Now, he remembered Dong Xiyun.
As long as Aunt Xia was willing to tell the truth, he could capture her at any time. Just thinking about it made him a little excited.
