The ancestor is here, she is here with space

Chapter 283 The mysterious old man

As the third prince spoke, a vicious look flashed in his eyes.

"In reply to the Third Prince, I am here to inform you about the matters in the General's Mansion." Song Hongyi lowered his head and said cautiously.

"Your subordinate?" The Third Prince smiled playfully. "As far as I know, you no longer hold an official position. Why do you still call yourself your subordinate?"

this……

This is not the point. Song Hongyi couldn't help sweating on his forehead, but he still said with a stiff upper lip: "The Third Prince is right. I said the wrong thing."

"Hmph, tell me, what do you know about what's going on in the General's Mansion?" The Third Prince snorted coldly and said impatiently.

"Yes, yes." Song Hongyi said hurriedly, "In fact, the old lady of the general's mansion was not burned to death."

"What?" Upon hearing this, the Third Prince stood up abruptly, with a look of shock on his face, "Is everything you said true?"

"It is absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes." Song Hongyi replied quickly.

"Good, very good." The Third Prince showed a grim smile on his face, "I didn't expect that there are still remnants of this general's mansion alive."

After the Third Prince finished speaking, he stared at Song Hongyi and asked, "Back then, it was because everyone in the General's Mansion was burned to death during exile that you were stripped of your official position when you returned to the capital. You didn't say anything when you returned to the capital, so why are you saying it now?"

Hearing the third prince's words, Song Hongyi couldn't help but tremble.

"Please... please listen to my explanation, Third Prince." Song Hongyi wiped his sweat and said carefully, "The reason why I didn't tell you at the beginning was because..."

"Why?" The Third Prince slammed the table and shouted, "Hurry up and tell me."

"Yes, I'll tell you." Song Hongyi said quickly, "The reason why I didn't tell you at the beginning was because I was afraid of getting into trouble. After all, the matter of the General's Mansion involved many people. I..."

"Humph, so you deliberately concealed it at the beginning?" The third prince interrupted him and said coldly.

"Yes, please forgive me, Third Prince." Song Hongyi knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

"Forget it. Considering that you took the initiative to inform me this time, I will spare you." The third prince waved his hand and said, "However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. You should make up for your crime and make meritorious contributions."

"Yes, yes, thank you very much, Third Prince." Song Hongyi couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard that.

"Get up." The Third Prince said calmly, "As long as you work hard for me in the future, I will not treat you unfairly."

"Yes, yes, sir...I will go through fire and water for the Third Prince without hesitation." Song Hongyi expressed his opinion hurriedly.

Looking at Song Hongyi's fawning look, the Third Prince showed a satisfied expression on his face.

Next, Song Hongyi recounted what happened in detail.

After the Third Prince heard this, he looked at him in confusion, "You mean to say that the Second Prince ordered you to do all these things? Why didn't you ask him for the credit when the Second Prince returned to the capital?"

"After I learned that the Second Prince had returned, I went over there, but the people in the Second Prince's mansion wouldn't let me in."

Speaking of this, Song Hongyi was a little depressed.

"Why doesn't the second brother see you?" The third prince also felt strange.

"I don't know either." Song Hongyi shook his head. "I'm just afraid that the Second Prince will destroy his past and deny what happened. If that happens, I'll be speechless and unable to speak out my suffering."

"So you came to see me?" The third prince looked at him and asked.

"Yes." Song Hongyi nodded. "I did this myself. There is no trace left. As long as the Third Prince needs me, I can stand up and testify at any time."

"Okay, I understand." The Third Prince nodded, "You did a great job on this matter. I will remember it."

"Thank you, Third Prince." Hearing the Third Prince's words, Song Hongyi was overjoyed and said quickly.

"Well, you go down first. Remember, don't tell anyone about what happened today." The third prince looked at him and ordered.

"Yes, I know." Song Hongyi said hurriedly, nodding and bowing.

Watching Song Hongyi's back as he left, the Third Prince fell into deep thought. If the people in the General's Mansion were not dead, and the bodies of Fang Deyong and his men had not been found in the North, would it be possible that

They weren't dead at all?

When the third prince thought of this possibility, he could no longer sit still. If Fang Deyong and his men were not dead,

Could it be that they have already returned to the capital, hiding in the dark and waiting for their chance to strike?

Moreover, could those wild cats that suddenly appeared in the mansion these days be done by people from the General's Mansion?

the most important is……

"Someone come!" the third prince shouted outside.

"The Third Prince." A guard walked in and called out with a bow.

"Go and check for me whether the people from the general's mansion have returned to the capital. Remember, check carefully." The third prince looked at the guard and ordered.

"Yes." The guard responded and turned to leave.

"People from the General's Mansion, this prince wants to see if you can really come back alive." A trace of murderous intent flashed in the third prince's eyes.

At this time, Lin Congyun, who was witnessing all this in the space, also had doubts in his heart. Why was the third prince so nervous when he learned that the people in the general's mansion were not dead?

Is it...

Is the matter of the General's Mansion also related to him?

The more Lin Congyun thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible. For a moment, his gaze towards the Third Prince through space was filled with coldness and murderous intent.

If she were to find out that the incident in the General's Mansion was really related to the Third Prince, she would definitely kill him with her own hands and avenge the people in the General's Mansion.

After returning home, Lin Congyun also arranged for people to investigate Song Hongyi and the mysterious old man.

She always felt that the old man's appearance was too strange, and his martial arts were unfathomable. It was obvious at a glance that he was not an ordinary person.

She had never seen or heard of such a person before. It was as if he appeared out of nowhere.

The more this happened, the weirder Lin Congyun felt.

In the following days, Lin Congyun asked people to investigate the matter between Song Hongyi and the old man, while at the same time, he asked people to keep an eye on the movements in the Third Prince's mansion.

A few days later, Lin Congyun was sitting in his study. The drizzle outside the window added a bit of haziness and tranquility to the capital city.

"Is there any clue about the old man?" she asked softly.

Just as Feng Lieyang was about to say that there were no clues yet, the hurried footsteps of the guards interrupted the tranquility in the study. Feng Lieyang's words were abruptly interrupted. Both of them were stunned, and then their eyes turned to the door.

The guard had a solemn expression on his face. He quickly walked to Lin Congyun, knelt on one knee, and whispered, "Reporting to the Second Prince, I have found the trace of that old man."
