Zhou Chengwang came to deliver news to Jiang Lin again.

While gnawing on Jiang Lin's steamed stuffed bun, he asked mysteriously, "Lin'er, do you know that a thunderstorm struck a forest outside the city two days ago?"

Jiang Lin nodded, motioning for him to continue.

Zhou Chengwang: "It was a quarry. The imperial court sent people to investigate. The fire was caused by lightning striking a tree. The lightning was so powerful that it not only chopped down many trees, but also killed everyone in the quarry. There are hundreds of people."

Zhou Chengwang sighed and sighed.

Jiang Lin turned to look at him, "So the court has come to a conclusion and confirmed that it was all caused by thunder?"

Zhou Chengwang: "Otherwise, the whole Shengjing people heard the loud noise that night, what could be...wrong?"

Zhou Chengwang noticed that Jiang Lin's complexion was wrong, and he stopped chewing on the buns. He opened his mouth wide, "Is there really a problem?"

Jiang Lin snorted, with a mocking face, "It was an explosion, hundreds of people could not be killed by lightning."

"How do you know?" Zhou Chengwang asked subconsciously.

"Because I went to see it and saw it with my own eyes." Jiang Lin's tone was a little grave.

Heavy rain, thunder, and the forest near the quarry was ablaze for a long time. He and Wei Yunzhao stayed up in the middle of the night and kept staring in that direction.

When the sky was about to dawn and the rain had subsided, Jiang Lin disguised himself and rushed out of the city as the first batch went straight to the quarry, where he saw the traces of the explosion all over the ground.

Maybe others can't recognize it, but Jiang Lin will never admit his mistake. He will already be cleaned by someone, and there will be experts watching him around. If he doesn't use space, he won't be able to get in at all.

Jiang Lin counted the corpses, a total of four hundred and one, all of them were ordinary people in clothes.

He also saw people burning corpses to reduce the number of deaths. Coincidentally, the second prince's people also came to investigate the scene.

A premeditated act of extermination, even arrangements for the way out, will be blamed on natural disasters in the end. These people have bad luck.

Jiang Lin admired the plan of the second prince, and was even more shocked by his cruelty. If such a person becomes the lord of the world, he must also be a bloodthirsty and brutal tyrant. The people of the world are afraid that they will live in panic all the time, and their lives will be destitute.

Jiang Lin only had one thought after seeing the whole scene, the second prince must die!

Zhou Chengwang asked Jiang Linzhi if he knew who did it. Jiang Lin didn't say anything, but only said to Zhou Chengwang: "If you believe me, then go back and convince your father. He can support anyone, but he must not support the second prince."

Jiang Lin's expression was a little serious, and Zhou Chengwang was not stupid about this kind of thing, so he guessed that the matter of the quarry was related to the second prince.

He covered his mouth, his pupils dilated in shock, "No way, the second prince..."

Jiang Lin stuffed two steamed buns into his hand, "Frankly, go play with Du Yuling and me. I'll write a new book for you later, and don't get involved in other things."

Zhou Chengwang was forcibly driven away by Jiang Lin, and he didn't regain his senses until he got into the carriage.

And as soon as he got home, Zhou Chengwang filled the yard with the buns and shouted to find his father. Zhou's father pushed the door out from the study, with a dignified expression on his face, "Come here!"
