Chapter 353 Suspicion
After the first suspect was identified, everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing who else Ye Jinxuan might have a grudge against.

"I know, there is another person." A female voice suddenly sounded.

It was Qiao Xi who insisted on coming with Xia Chunfeng. She had no right to speak before, so she could only listen, feeling extremely sad and remorseful. If she had followed the Second Young Madam today, even if she fell into the hands of the bad guys, at least she could have kept the Second Young Madam company, and at least she could have known what kind of situation the Second Young Madam was in now, instead of standing here anxiously like she was now.

When Xia Chunfeng saw that it was Qiao Xi, his eyes lit up: "By the way, you are the one who serves the Second Young Madam personally, you know it best."

Qiao Xi said, "I can't really say, but I feel like this person has reason to hate the Second Young Mistress, the concubine of Prince Yu, and she even sent people to the dessert shop to cause trouble."

Xiao Jing slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, how could I have forgotten that Yaoyao and A'ruan have a good relationship. It is entirely possible that the Lin family hates A'ruan because she has helped A'ruan too much."

Xia Chunfeng deeply agreed with this. What he was thinking at this moment was whether it was a joint plan by Liuli and Lin, as these two people were originally close.

Su Yi wrote down Lin on the paper again, but he had an extra layer of doubt in his heart. If this matter was related to Lin, then perhaps it was also related to Prince Yu. If Ye Jinxuan had any use value, Marquis Jing'an and Xia Chunyu were the ones. If he used this as a threat, based on the relationship between Xia Chunyu and Ye Jinxuan, it would be entirely possible to restrain Xia Chunyu. Restraining Xia Chunyu was equivalent to restraining Marquis Jing'an. Although Marquis Jing'an seemed very leisurely after returning to Jinling, he was actually the most important figure in the army after Helian Xuan. Perhaps, in the minds of some old generals, Marquis Jing'an's prestige was even better than Helian Xuan's.

Su Yi felt someone's eyes falling on his face, and he glanced sideways, only to see that Xiao Jing also had a puzzled and solemn look in his eyes. The two of them understood each other tacitly.

Xiao Jing said, "Let's start with these two people. Also, Master Jiu, you have many disciples and are well-informed. Please help check the carriage. Even if they set fire to the carriage, there would be flames."

Jiu Ye nodded and said, "No problem. I will give instructions to all the disciples in the gang to go out and search for the person and the car."

Zhao Qixuan was bewildered: "That's it? There are no other suspects?"

Su Yi glanced at him calmly. After all, he was a person who knew a lot. Zhao Qixuan immediately understood that there was something inconvenient to say. Indeed, this was Jiu Ye's territory. Jiu Ye was a man of the underworld. There were some confidential matters that should not be told to outsiders.

Xiao Jing ignored Zhao Qixuan's question and arranged: "Chunfeng, Liuli is in your hands. I will find a way to deal with Lin's."

Now he still has the emperor's order, and he must do his best to rescue Yaoyao both publicly and privately.

Xia Chunfeng hummed heavily.

The four of them said goodbye to Master Jiu, agreed to contact each other at any time, and then left.

Jiu Ye has seen a lot of ups and downs and dealt with all kinds of people. He knows what's going on here. This may involve secrets that he cannot interfere with. Anyway, he just needs to do what he is supposed to do.

The four of them met in the carriage, and Su Yi shared his doubts with everyone.

Everyone agreed with this and thought it was very likely.

Xiao Jing said, "I'm beginning to suspect that it was Prince Yu who knocked Yaoyao unconscious and threw her into the dry well during Prince Yu's wedding. Who would suspect Prince Yu? They must be suspecting someone who did this to benefit someone. Prince Yu's move is really mean."

Zhao Qixuan said: "It's just speculation now, there is no real evidence, the key is that Prince Yu is difficult to investigate."

Su Yi looked at Xiao Jing: "Do you have any solution?"

Xiao Jing said bluntly: "I haven't thought of a good solution yet."

Su Yi pondered and said, "It seems that I have no choice but to ask the prince for help."

The people outside had already started to take action, but Ye Jiayao didn't make any movement at all. She was just left alone. No matter how she shouted or cursed, no one responded to her.

This made Ye Jiayao very depressed and discouraged. No matter how many tricks you have, others will not communicate with you at all, so you can't use your great abilities.

When she didn't say anything, the secret room was eerily quiet, reminding her of the Tomb of the Living Dead in Jin Yong's novels. But that wasn't the Tomb of the Living Dead; this place was.

Chunyu, ah Chunyu, you were able to find me last time when I was thrown into a dry well. But this time, you are not in Jinling. Who can come to save me?
Thinking of Chunyu, Ye Jiayao could no longer conceal the fragility in her heart. She wanted to cry, and tears flowed down unconsciously, but she was afraid that people outside would hear her. She believed that there was someone outside who was just ignoring her.

If the person who kidnapped her was her enemy, he would definitely be happy to see her weak!
So, she pursed her lips and shed tears silently without making any sound.

Xia Chunfeng did not go home directly, but sent Qiao Xi back to the Marquis' Mansion first. Zhong Xiang, Deng Haichuan, and the Chamber of Commerce's Manager Lu and Manager Duan had all arrived and were waiting for news.

There are no clear clues yet, so Xia Chunfeng has nothing to say. He can only advise everyone to pay more attention and let us know if they find anything wrong.

After returning home, Chunfeng was thinking about how to start the investigation. Should he go directly to Xiaoya or wait for an opportunity? Xiaoya was his eyes and ears, and she was always very secretive. They had almost no communication in the mansion. However, time was not available. If he delayed for another quarter of an hour, his second sister-in-law would be in more danger. If his second sister-in-law really had an accident, how would he explain it to his second brother? How would he explain it to his father and mother?
After pondering for a long time, Chunfeng decided to go find Xiaoya. Just as he was about to get up, a servant outside said, "Third Young Madam..."

"Is the Third Young Master back?"

"I'm back. I'm inside. Can you tell them?"

Chunfeng sat down again. When will the servants be able to stop Liuli?

Sure enough, Liuli came in without waiting for the servant to inform her, and asked anxiously: "Chunfeng, I heard that my second sister-in-law is missing?" Chunfeng glanced at her sideways, and his expression seemed quite anxious, but the secret joy hidden in his eyes could not escape his eyes.

But it was this secret joy that made Chunfeng's original thoughts waver. In fact, Liuli was a simple-minded woman. Her bad side and all her shortcomings were revealed so bluntly that even if she wanted to hide them in front of him, she couldn't.

If she really did it, she shouldn't be here at this time.

"Are you happy?" Chunfeng sneered.

Liuli pouted and said, "Why should I be happy? I'm just very surprised. Hey, is there any news? Do you know who did it?"

Liuli's big eyes showed deep interest.

Chun Feng said indifferently: "If I knew who did it, would I still be sitting here now?"

As he spoke, his eyes shone coldly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If anyone dares to attack my Jing'an Marquis Mansion, he will be dead if I find him out, no matter who he is."

These words were also said for Liuli to hear, so Chunfeng had been secretly paying attention to Liuli's reaction.

Liuli said disdainfully: "Who knows who the second sister-in-law offended? She has offended quite a few people."

You must have offended even more people! In the past, the Queen Mother protected you, but now that she is gone, who can guarantee that no one will want revenge? Xia Chunfeng thought.

"I think the person she offended the most is you." Xia Chunfeng said sarcastically.

Liuli became excited: "Are you doubting me?"

"Let's stick to the facts." Xia Chunfeng said lightly.

"Is it necessary for me to do this? Why should I catch her? Beat her up or something? If I want to beat her up to vent my anger, I can just find a few people on the street to stop her and beat her up. Why do I have to go through so much trouble?" Liuli said angrily. Whenever something happened to the Ye family, Chunfeng was always the first one to suspect her. He believed what the Ye family said and refused to believe her.

Yes, she really wanted to deal with the surname Ye, even at all costs, but she would not take such a method. If she arrested him, would she release him or not? If he was found out, she would be in trouble.

She wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

Xia Chunfeng glanced over and saw Xiaoya standing behind Liuli, silently shaking her head and moving her lips.

Xia Chunfeng understood that what she was talking about was... not her.

Xia Chunfeng believed Xiaoya. Xiaoya followed Liuli closely and was Liuli's confidant. This matter would inevitably involve some people. If Liuli really did something, Xiaoya would definitely not be able to hide it. Since Xiaoya said it was not the case, then it must not be the case.

"The training class was set on fire. Could it be that you ordered those thugs to do the arson?" Xia Chunfeng was just making small talk.

Unexpectedly, Liuli's eyes flickered, but after just a short moment, she regained her composure and said in a bluffing manner: "You can blame me for everything! Anyway, in your heart, I am a vicious woman, and she, Ye, is a kind fairy..."

As she spoke, Liuli's voice began to become tearful. She wiped her eyes sadly and actually squeezed out a few tears.

Unfortunately, it was useless for her to act anymore. Xia Chunfeng had already caught her panic in that brief moment. Xia Chunfeng suppressed his anger. The arson was indeed related to Liuli. He could even think of such a dirty trick as arson. If someone was unfortunately burned to death, it would be murder and arson.

Looking at her aggrieved look, Xia Chunfeng felt extremely disgusted. He thought he was really blind to fall in love with such a woman.

"Go away, I'm tired and need to rest." Xia Chunfeng said expressionlessly, indifferently and distantly.

"You..." Liuli was extremely angry and wanted to argue with him.

Xiaoya quietly pulled down her sleeve.

Liuli calmed down immediately and said with confidence: "Although I don't have much ability, there is one thing I will admit if I did it. If it wasn't me, don't try to put the blame on me."

After saying that, he left angrily.

Xia Chunfeng's face became more and more gloomy. What she said sounded very high-sounding. When had she ever voluntarily admitted to doing something bad? Wasn't it because someone had evidence against her that she had no choice but to admit it?
Let’s not worry about her for now. Just make sure that the disappearance of my second sister-in-law has nothing to do with her. We can talk about other things later.

This night was a sleepless night for many people.

Ye Jiayao has always been everyone's backbone. No matter in the Marquis' Mansion, the Chamber of Commerce, or Tianshangju, everyone is used to listening to her orders in everything. Now, she is gone, and everyone feels empty and panicked.
