Chapter 295: The Young Master
And the moment news of Li Que's death reached the Great Li imperial palace, an immediate imperial decree was issued for the Six Doors and the Hidden Intelligence Bureau to jointly investigate the death.
The Tianjin Guards were conspicuously excluded, the palace clearly understanding the relationship between the Tianjin Guards and Li Musheng well enough to know that with Li Musheng's standing within the Tianjin Guards, the Six Doors and the Hidden Intelligence Bureau alone could not have kept the Tianjin Guards in line.
Of course, none of this mattered in the slightest to Li Musheng. Having obtained the Tianqi Secret Treasury key from Li Que, he now held two keys in total.
His next step was to work out how to get hold of the third.
Based on what he knew so far, the third key was most likely in the possession of his elder sister, the Great Li Grand Princess.
"Cang Yinyue should be investigating exactly that. Best to find her first and see what the situation is."
Li Musheng returned to the Tianjin Guards headquarters and sat in the courtyard enjoying the shade, paying not the slightest attention to the upheaval sweeping through the capital around him.
The big black cat was in noticeably high spirits, padding back and forth through the courtyard.
After all, today it had killed a Great Li prince, and it had done so right here in the Great Li imperial capital.
