Chapter 657 Listening to the dagger, arousing Lao 9's suspicion,

"This is not the Skywalker Dagger!"

Baili Moyan read it out softly, and suddenly there was a storm in his eyes!

It’s not Tianxing, but it looks very similar to Tianxing!

Guan He was shocked and puzzled after hearing this. Just as he was about to ask, he saw him raise his head and look at Shu Yuanqi.

"You said this dagger was left to Fu Qingrong by the fourth brother?"

Seeing this, Shu Yuanqi quickly pushed Qin Yi away and rolled his eyes at him, looking like a smug villain.

He walked towards Baili Moyan with a flattering look on his face, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, I dare not lie to you. This is the genuine Tianxing Dagger! I personally took it from the Fourth Prince's concubine!"

"She originally wanted to take this dagger to the Left Prime Minister, but perhaps because of the Fourth Prince's rebellion, the Left Prime Minister was avoiding the Fourth Prince's concubine like the plague!"

"After returning from the Prime Minister's residence, the Fourth Prince's concubine was extremely desperate and finally chose to commit suicide by burning herself."

"I snatched this dagger from the fire!"

Baili Moyan stared at him, his eyes sharp as arrows, "Are you sure that Fu Qingrong set herself on fire?"

Fu Qingrong is his cousin. They almost grew up together. Would she commit suicide by burning herself?

Even if she wanted to die, she would not choose this way of dying!

Besides, she was a woman who valued her appearance so much, how could she tolerate herself being burned beyond recognition?

Shu Yuanqi's face was also filled with confusion. "The Imperial Guards said the concubine set herself on fire, but I'm not entirely sure. When I arrived, she was already burning! If I hadn't desperately put out the fire, she wouldn't have survived!"

After hearing this, Baili Moyan's suspicion deepened. "So, you're saying that when the Imperial Guards saw Fu Qingrong burning, not only did they not go to save her, but they also watched from the sidelines, waiting for you to rescue her?"

"Yeah!" Shu Yuanqi said with an "of course" look, but after saying that, he also felt something was wrong, "Speaking of this, I'm still confused!"

"These imperial guards were supposed to guard Youxi Garden, but when the concubine set herself on fire, not only did they not save her, they just stood there stupidly. I even suspect someone deliberately told them not to care about her life or death!"

"Otherwise, who could see that scene and remain indifferent?"

"Seventh Prince, do you think someone is deliberately trying to harm the concubine?"

Baili Moyan put the dagger back into the scabbard, his heart in confusion.

Looking at Shu Yuanqi's expression, he doesn't seem to be lying.

Could it be that the fire was set by the seventh brother?

Not long ago, Shu Yue was sent to his house. He believed that Shu He did not really want Shu Yue to come and enjoy a good life!

After all, how could a smart person like her not have thought that if Shu Yue entered his door, she would face endless torture?

Therefore, it should be that Lao Qi and the others knew the truth about the flower banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion that year, so Shu He pushed Shu Yue into the fire pit, and Lao Qi burned Fu Qingrong to vent Shu He's anger!

But, Lao Qi shouldn't be so cruel.

Killing Fu Qingrong with one sword might be Old Seven's style, but setting her on fire and burning her alive...

If it wasn’t Lao Qi, then who could it be?

The Skywalker Dagger, unique in the world...

Could it be him?!

Baili Moyan had some guesses in his mind, but he felt that this idea was too crazy!

"Qin Yi, take Mr. Shu to the backyard and find a place for him to stay."

Hearing this, Shu Yuanqi was pleasantly surprised, "Ninth Prince, are you taking me in?"

Baili Moyan glanced at him impatiently, waved his hand, and asked Qin Yi to take the man away.

This kind of idiot is not worth his energy.

When no one was in the hall, Guan He asked him, "Ninth Prince, you just said that this dagger is not Tianxing?"

But back then, when the emperor gave it to him as a reward, he had seen the Tianxing Dagger.

He had a clear impression that the Skywalker Dagger had this unique snake-like shape.

Baili Moyan handed the dagger in his hand to Guan He and said, "After my father gave the Tianxing dagger to Old Seven, I went to ask for it to come and see it."

"The scabbard of the Tianxing Dagger has a complex and mysterious starry sky map, but the pattern on this scabbard is a picture of mountains and rivers!"

"Also, I remember clearly that the blood groove of the Tianxing Dagger was on the left, but this dagger's blood groove is on the right."

Various characteristics indicate that this dagger is not from Tianxing!

Guan He was puzzled. "Could it be that someone forged it?"

Is it a counterfeit?

Baili Moyan had a crazy guess in his mind.

"What if Murong Lian, the head of Tianji Pavilion, actually made two daggers like this from the very beginning?"

He looked at the material of the dagger and scabbard, and found that it was exactly the same as the "Tianxing" he had seen from Lao Qi before.

If it is a replica, it is impossible that the materials used are the same, and even the patterns on the scabbard are depicted accordingly.

"Two?" Guan He was even more confused. "But when the emperor gave them to me as a reward, he clearly said that these daggers are unique in the world..."

The four words "unique" seemed to give Guan He a violent shock, dispersing all the fog in front of his eyes.

The emperor did not tell the truth!

It is said to be a unique dagger, but in fact there is another similar one in the world!

Apart from the subtle differences in the blood groove and the scabbard, almost no one can tell the two daggers apart.

The main evidence used to convict the Seventh Prince of murdering the Second Prince was the wound caused by this unique snake-shaped dagger on the Second Prince.

In this case, the death of the Second Prince might not really be caused by the Seventh Prince!

Looking at the expression on Guan He's face, Baili Moyan knew that he had guessed something.

"Commander Guan, you actually suspect me of being responsible for the second brother's death, right?"

Baili Moyan sat behind the desk with a nonchalant look on his face.

Guan He's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly bowed and said, "I dare not!"

Baili Moyan raised his eyebrows. He said "dare not" instead of "no". This shows that he really thinks so.

"I'll tell you the truth."

"Second brother, I didn't kill him."

Guan He lowered his head, blocking his suspicious eyes.

"At first, I was indeed the one who found the second brother's body. Later, I did so many cruel and despicable things to the seventh brother. So you think I killed the second brother, right?"

Guan He still didn't say anything, but he bent his waist even lower.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Baili Moyan smiled faintly and said, "Not only do you think so, even Old Seven thought so before!"

"He presented his so-called 'evidence' to Father so many times, but Father never even looked at it!"

"At that time, I thought that my father was protecting me, so I deliberately avoided reading those messy things..."

But now it seems that he should re-examine the emperor's true intentions on this matter!

"Now that I think about it, it seems like the second brother's death was indeed strange."

He leaned back in his chair, his hands resting on the armrests on both sides, as if lost in some memories.
