Chapter 1592: Chapter 1592: Want to Investigate? Dream On!
Jiang Fula followed behind Song Zhiyuan by a step, reporting softly.
"Third Master openly sent Cheng Yong to investigate Lian Yue’s whereabouts, and secretly dispatched that Taoist named Quanzhenzi to help investigate, initially promising a reward of a thousand taels, it seems he also thinks there are suspicious points in this accident."
Song Zhiyuan walked slowly along the cobblestone path in the small study courtyard, wearing only cotton socks. Upon hearing this news, he didn’t pause but snorted and laughed.
"Oh? I thought he hated that woman so much that he would never want to see her again until death. Has he come to his senses now?"
At the time of sending Lian Yue away, Song Zhiqing’s opinion had been asked, but he was in a state of collapse, not willing to see the culprit who had crippled him, hating with clenched teeth, coldly and heartlessly saying to send her away. And now, he’s come to his senses, yet wants to bring her back for a thorough investigation?
Jiang Fula bowed slightly and said, "Perhaps idle these days, he broke it down and pondered over it."
Song Zhiyuan sneered, "If he had this mind and used it in politics back then, things would not have come to this. Unfortunately, he spent it all on manipulation and climbing, blinded by lust, repeatedly ruining himself over women, he asks for death."
Jiang Fula clasped his hands and did not respond.
"Have all traces been erased?" Song Zhiyuan glanced at him.
Jiang Fula bowed and cupped his hands, "Prime Minister, rest assured, everything has settled."
Song Zhiyuan then stopped asking. Even if Song Zhiqing found out it was manmade, he couldn’t trace it back to him, because his interactions with Lian Yue were genuine and without any interference.
He merely had someone leverage Lian Yue’s weakness to call him out, and the accident was indeed an accident. It was just that during his coma, some extra effort was made.
The original plan was to pose as an assassin avenging Bai Shuilian, crippling one of his legs.
And Lian Yue probably doesn’t even know who instructed her; even if she named someone, Song Zhiqing wouldn’t find him.
Because that accomplice died, in a dramatic coincidence, impaled by a nail.
Everything was predestined by heaven.
Of course, every deed leaves a trace, yet for Song Zhiqing to uncover these traces alone, may take a lifetime.
"Father."
"Uncle."
Song Zhiyuan looked towards the two spirited youths walking towards him, waved a hand to Jiang Fula, who gave a salute and left, and when he reached Song Lingsu and the others, he saluted again.
Song Lingsu and the others returned a half salute, "Uncle Jiang, there’s no need for formalities."
"Etiquette must not be neglected," Jiang Fula smiled.
Song Zhiyuan smiled and asked, "You both have smiles on your faces; did you hunt the great wild geese back?"
Song Lingsu replied joyfully, "With seasoned hunters leading, there’s no reason to return empty-handed; we’ve naturally hunted them back."
Song Lingjie added, "If we hadn’t hunted them, my brother might have stayed in the mountains."
Song Lingsu blushed and retorted, "When it’s your turn in the future, I wonder if you’ll stay in the mountains."
Song Lingjie raised his brows lightly, "Let’s wait and see."
"Don’t say anymore, Wu’er sent a letter. It’s on the desk in the study, go get it yourselves." Song Zhiyuan pointed vaguely, "You should pay more attention; Wu’er has gained military merits again, he’s saving them up without being promoted. When he does, his rank might jump multiple levels."
Both were delighted and cupped their hands, saying, "We will heed Father’s (Uncle’s) guidance."
"Let’s go, that guy’s tail must be sky-high now." Song Lingjie urged impatiently.
Song Zhiyuan watched them bump and jostle their way into the study, then raised his head to look at the clear blue sky and sighed; the Song Family should enter the next stage.
At that moment, in the remote South Garden of the Song Mansion, Jing Shui, responsible for taking care of the twins, saw something when changing Xiao Wu’s clothes, causing her breath to catch and she stood up abruptly.
