Chapter 270: Investigation Results
Thinking of Duan Yixin’s death in his previous life, Xuan Ruiquan clenched the sword hilt with determination shining in his eyes.
’Since I can no longer rely on the memories of my past life, I must deal with those people as soon as possible. Starting from that Liang Jiaying.’
Just when Xuan Ruiquan made his decision, Jian Qi came back. Seeing his Master finally come down from the tree, Jian Qi walked up to him. He clasped his fists and greeted Xuan Ruiquan, "Master."
Xuan Ruiquan looked at Jian Qi and asked, "How is your investigation going?"
Jian Qi handed the food he found to other secret guards and said, "Reporting to Master. After more than a week of investigation, we found that Li Junwang was indeed the mastermind behind this plague."
"He deliberately gathered all the refugees without even providing any support until they fell ill. After that, Li Junwang distributed porridge under the pretext of saving the refugees, but they poisoned the porridge."
After speaking, he took out a small package and said, "Master, this is the sample of the poison. This subordinate didn’t have time to send the sample back to Dali Si, so we currently didn’t know what kind of poison it was."
Xuan Ruiquan took the small pack of poison and said, "I will handle this matter. You go back and report your findings to the emperor. Also, bring all the evidence back and let Jian Yi handle it."
He then looked at Liushiliu and said, "Liushiliu, go to the north and lead five hundred elite soldiers to capture Li Junwang and his subordinates. Don’t miss even one person. After you arrest them, take them directly to Dali Si for investigation."
