Song Heng slowly looked at the teacup in his hand. After taking a sip, he seemed to think the tea was not good enough, so he put it aside casually and raised his hand.
His trusted Jinyiwei officer Chen Dong immediately understood and turned to go out. After a while, Chen Dong came in again, bringing another person with him.
Song Heng clapped his hands, causing Cheng Ding'an's heart to jump suddenly, and then he asked meaningfully: "Why, doesn't the Prince of Changping know this person?"
Before Cheng Dingan could react, Wu Shanxian was so shocked that he almost jumped up. How could he not recognize the man in front of him? This man was clearly the gangster in the casino who helped them set up a trap to trick Wu Wangkun and sell his nephew and niece!
But, Song Heng actually found him!
Cheng Ding'an was even more shocked, realizing that Song Heng had come prepared and was determined to frame him for the murder of Wu Wangkun. He immediately said with a ferocious expression: "Song Heng! So what if I know this man? I have no grudge against him, why would I kill him?!"
Song Heng laughed and sat on the stool very comfortably, as if he was not sitting on an ordinary wooden stool in the inn, but sitting in a Huanghuali armchair. He said leisurely, "No grudges? If there were really no grudges, then why did you set a trap for him? Besides, he is Guo Chongxing's brother-in-law. You set a trap for him and made him owe a large gambling debt and sell his nephew and niece, and then Guo Chongxing committed suicide at Caishikou. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
Of course it’s not a coincidence!
Cheng Ding'an was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead, but he didn't care about these things at all.
Song Heng knew much more than he imagined.
It was all because Su Xingxuan sent the message too close to the banquet, so his plan was very hasty and there was no time to ask others to come forward, so he had to let Wu Shan do it himself.
Perhaps that's why the trace was missed.
He was in a state of confusion and tried hard to control his trembling hands. He felt his mind had turned into a mess and countless bees were flying around his ears.
Song Hengtao raised his eyebrows. Seeing that Cheng Dingan could not answer for a moment, he continued, "Wu Wangkun once told me that after he sold his nephew and niece, Guo Chongxing found him and beat him up, saying that it was because of him that the whole family was harmed. Not long after, Guo Chongxing died. Wu Wangkun suspected that the reason why Guo Chongxing committed suicide was not because he really wanted to seek justice for the Prince of Yongding, but because he was threatened and had no choice but to do so..."
Cheng Dingan clenched his fists tightly.
Waiting here!
He and Prince Zhuang wanted to blame the Yongding Earl's Mansion for instigating Guo Chongxing, but Song Heng wanted to put the blame on him!
No! Not only Song Heng, but also the Su family!
The so-called person from the Liu family who came to report the incident and ask for help was clearly just a bait, meant to lure him into the trap.
Cheng Ding'an was immediately furious. He had actually been tricked by someone!
But he refused to admit it, and just clenched his teeth and sneered: "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext! This is clearly a deliberate slander by you!"
"The evidence is here, and you still want to deny it?!" Song Heng raised his chin slightly and looked at him provocatively: "Didn't you bring the people here?! We saw you here as soon as we kicked open the door. If you were not guilty, why did you kill Wu Wangkun to silence him?!"
This is a dead end!
Cheng Dingan was very irritable.
He can't wash himself clean even if he jumps into the Yellow River.
It was a trap that he had set up to target the Su family, but how could he say it out loud now
Since it was impossible to say it out, and with the incident of Wu Wangkun and the fact that the gangster in the casino had seen Wu Shan, he had no way to defend himself now.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling flustered.
no!
He must not fall into Song Heng's hands. Otherwise, not only would Song Heng do everything he could to convict him, but King Zhuang would also kill him to silence him.
In just one day, the roles of the schemer and the schemed were reversed. He went from being a hunter to someone else's prey. This feeling was really unbearable. He glanced at Wu Shan.
Wu Shan immediately understood and shouted loudly, rushing towards the nearest Jinyiwei.
Taking advantage of this moment, Cheng Dingan also jumped up.
He was also born into a family of noble military officers and had been diligent in learning martial arts since childhood. While Wu Shan was desperately entangled with several Jinyiwei, he took two steps back and ran towards the window that he had been observing for a long time.
escape!
No matter what, escape from here first.
As for Wu Shan and Lao Li, it doesn’t matter. As long as they don’t catch him, he can just put the blame on Wu Shan.
The most important thing is to stay alive.
He pushed open two windows suddenly, and jumped out of the window as lightly as a swallow.
The sound of wind rang in his ears, but he didn't care at all. He was so nervous that he almost wanted to vomit. When he landed on the ground, he felt a little clearer in his mind. But at the same time, he suddenly saw a pair of black soap boots in front of him.
The smile that was about to appear on his face froze completely, and he trembled slightly uncontrollably for a moment. When he raised his eyes, he met Song Heng's half-smile face.
"Tsk." Song Heng still had a slight smile on his face: "If the prince really has nothing to do with this case, why would he run away? It shows that he is guilty as a thief!"
This fox!
Cheng Ding'an suddenly realized that he had fallen into Cheng Ding'an's trap again - even if he had explanations or excuses before, they were of no use now.
No one will believe it.
Even if King Zhuang was willing to rescue him, Song Heng would definitely not have any loopholes to exploit.
Cheng Ding'an suddenly felt discouraged. For the first time in his life, he felt his whole body trembling.
It was at this moment that he took a few steps back, fell on his back, and suddenly saw a strange face appear on the second floor.
It was a girl. Even in the dark of night, he could clearly see her cold face just by the two lanterns hanging on the beams on the second floor.
Su invited.
Without warning, the name popped into his mind.
It was the girl that Su Xingxuan had mentioned to him countless times. He didn't know why, but he subconsciously recognized the girl not far away.
He narrowed his eyes and met those equally cold eyes. For some reason, his mind suddenly became clear.
Su Yao and Song Heng plotted against him together!
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Song Heng's Embroidered Spring Knife had already arrived in front of him even faster.
Song Heng was born into a noble family, but he had followed his father into battle since he was young. It was said that he had even killed a Hu man with his own hands. When facing him, Cheng Dingan's martial arts skills were no match for him. After just a few rounds, he was easily pinned to the ground by Song Heng.
