They did not know each other, came to visit, sat there for half a day, and then left in a hurry …
Each and every one of these things was unusual!
"Then what happened next?" Chen Ning looked up at Mo Chuan.
"Later, I sent soldiers to surround the guest house, not allowing anyone to enter or leave. I did not believe that the blueprint would disappear. The Northern Qi emissary was overbearing and aggressive, forcing me to hand over the blueprint. But the more he acted like this, the more I felt that he had something to do with it. It was very likely that he was a thief crying thief, but at the same time, Li Zhixing and Chu Shao Yang were both suspects of stealing the blueprint. "
Mo Chuan took a deep breath and raised his hand, rubbing his eyebrows.
"Now, I have both Li Zhixing and Chu Shao Yang under house arrest in the palace, and I have interrogated them, but the two of them do not admit that they had anything to do with the blueprint theft. Li Zhixing said that he was with his family that night, and his fifth concubine can testify for him, but Chu Shao Yang … he is not willing to say where he was that night, or what he did, so the most suspicious person is Chu Shao Yang!"
Chen Ning nodded and said, "That's right, he is the most suspicious. How did he explain visiting the Northern Qi emissary?"
Mo Chuan said, "He said he did not know what the blueprint was. He only heard that Northern Qi had sent an emissary, and he was bored in his manor, so he went to talk to the Northern Qi emissary about Northern Qi's customs and people to relieve his boredom. This story is full of holes, and it is not convincing at all. But he insisted that the blueprint theft had nothing to do with him. I sent people to search Li Zhixing's and Chu Shao Yang's manors, but we couldn't find any clues about the blueprint. It was as if the blueprint had disappeared into thin air and the person who stole it couldn't determine which of the two did it. Perhaps it was someone else. "
After he finished speaking, his relaxed eyebrows furrowed again.
"Ning 'er, you seem to have the ability to see through people's hearts. Whether someone is lying or not, you can tell with a glance. Only you can help me with this matter. You … are you willing to help me?"
He thought back to the first time he met her. His eyes could be considered sharp, but he was still blinded by that swindler who sold himself to bury his father. But she easily saw through the swindler's scam.
It was because of this that she attracted his attention.
The closer he got to her, the more he realized that she had this strange ability. Her eyes seemed to have the ability to see through many of the subtle thoughts that he had hidden in his heart. It was as if her eyes had the ability to see through everything.
So when this happened, the first person he thought of was her.
If only she was here.
Chen Ning immediately understood Mo Chuan's meaning and nodded without any hesitation.
"Of course I'm willing. Mo Chuan, if someone is lying, then it must be the Northern Qi envoy, the Minister of War Li Zhixing, or one of the three Chu Shao Yang. No matter who stole the blueprint, I think the most important thing to do right now is to find the stolen blueprint!"
