Detective Ghost Empress

Chapter 451: The identity of the murderer—-2



---------------------

" Father?" Qin Mu Yan looked at his father who was evasively dodging his gaze and suddenly his expression could not help but turn grim. Was this true? Was everything that the young man spoke the truth?

" There is no point in discussing everything with him, junior official Qin," Lin Hui Ying sighed this matter, she was sure that the one who was the most innocent were concubine Qin and Qin Mu Yan but the matter was already past the point where she could control it, what Official Qin did was indeed sinful and he had to pay for it.

" General Yu told me that when you found the spot where your mother was killed, you did not find any weapon nor did you find any trail which would lead you to the culprit. What's more the spot where your mother was killed was so close to where you all were looking why was it that she did not call for help until she was attacked?

Was it not because she was with someone she did not believe would kill her?"

" As for the reason why your father never got caught was because the weapon that he used was stuffed in his oversize belly which he is faking.

Once he was done killing your mother, he threw the weapon back in his stuffed clothes and then rushed back to where he was with the soldiers, because he was hiding the dagger in his clothes, he did not leave a trail behind and the blood was soaked in the stuffing."

" Similarly, when you all were searching for concubine Qin he was actually busy chopping your sister bit by bit. First, he ripped her arm, then her leg and then naturally he reached for her head. It's true that he was with the soldiers the entire time but he was actually digging a pit in the ground of the forest where he continued to dump the parts of your sister."

She paused and then added, " Once only her torso was left, he carried it with him… it was a bold and ruthless trick!"

Lin Hui Ying sighed and then rubbed her forehead seemingly looking upset with herself as she said, " I was looking for your sister, it is just that I missed her by a small mistake … if I had known that your father was such a psychopath then I would have naturally paid more attention to the ground where the soil was dug."

When Lin Hui Ying was looking at the inside of the tents, she naturally saw some freshly dug dirt spread in the tent but she did not pay attention to it since she did not sense any yin or yang energy inside the tent—— what she did not know was that Official Qin had already snapped and killed his daughter when she was looking for her.

No wonder she did not find any yin energy in his tent, it was because he did not kill concubine Qin in the tent where he was but somewhere else, he only trapped her inside the pit which was dug in his tent for a little while such that he could snap her legs and arms into pieces!

This was the reason why Concubine Qin was killed with decapitation while Madam Qin was killed with just one clean swipe!

" As for the queen's attack…" she paused and then continued speaking, " It must be because he was worried that the queen will sense that something was wrong with that grave in the entrance of the forest which was why he wanted to silence her because if the grave was found then naturally the incidents of the past will be dug out, as well."

" That's right," after a long pause Official Qin finally parted his lips and nodded, he raised his hand and then opened his robe and dropped the bloodied sheets which he had stuffed inside his robes as he opened his mouth with a hurt expression and said,  " I did it all became I wanted to dispel the regrets which Song Xingyan had!"

" Song Xingyan?"

" Who is she?"

At first, even Ji Yang was stunned when he heard that name which he had not listened to for so long but when he heard that name his face could not help but go pale as he spoke with trembling lips" You… Official Qin, even after all this time… I thought you have forgotten her!"

" How can I forget her!" Official Qin's eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Ji Yang before turning to look at Zhai Tianyu who was standing on the stage and then said, " Your majesty do you know what this uncle of yours…did?"

" Shut Up!" When Ji Yang saw that Official Qin was opening his mouth to sweep the dust off the incidents of the past he wanted to stop him but Official Qin was unmoved, he turned to look at Ji Yang and then said, " I was a small scholar when I was young, I came to this town together with my wife, Song Xingyan. She was my life, just like her name she was beautiful and kind…Like the ray of sunlight."

" As I passed the scholar examination, I was allowed to become a seventh-level official and was transferred to this rotten imperial city from my village… it was during this time when your father… the late emperor saw my wife and fell for her!"

A malevolent expression came over Official Qin's face when he thought of the past, " I thought it was strange after I participated in the Dragon boat festival with my wife…the emperor continued to look for me and he even invited me to this darned hunt."

" I was a fool, I thought that my honest work had impressed that evil man and like an idiot I agreed to bring my wife to this hunt…" he raised his head and glared at Ji Yang who had gone really pale and continued with hatred and tears in his eyes, " I did not know that this was all a plan which your uncle thought of, all because he wanted to curry favour with the emperor!

He invited me here along with my wife …and then …and then one night he took me to hunt while offering my wife to your father!"
