After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

The next day.

During the morning court session, the emperor felt unwell and wanted to leave early, but the censors kept picking on Pei Jun, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, and accused him of several faults.

Among them, the statement "A thief pretended to be an official of Shuntian Prefecture in broad daylight, and ended up dying a violent death" was seconded by three censors in succession.

Lord Pei was also speechless, unable to express his grievances. It would have been fine if this kind of impersonation of an official happened at night, but it actually happened in broad daylight, and he ended up getting killed...

What the hell... who can he go to for justice?

His Majesty was a little tired, but this matter was indeed not a trivial matter, so he could only force himself to ask: "Lord Pei, please say a few words. I don't want to just listen to them."

What did Pei Jun, who was named, say?

"I am guilty of negligence."

Lord Pei followed the principle of admitting his mistakes first, and knelt down in fear. Then he complained with tears and snot: "Your Majesty, I have launched an investigation overnight after learning about this matter, and I will definitely catch the daring thief in one fell swoop."

This is a military order!

The emperor was pleased to hear this and was quite satisfied with Pei Jun's attitude: "In this case, I order you to solve the case as soon as possible, otherwise... forget it, let's leave the court first and discuss it tomorrow."

"Retire~~"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

……

After seeing off the emperor, all the court officials dispersed.

The censor who impeached Pei Jun glanced at Ji Yan, then followed the crowd and left with his colleagues.

Ji Yan did not leave in a hurry, but helped Pei Jun, who was still kneeling on the ground with weak legs, up: "Master Pei, please get up first."

Pei Jun looked up and saw that it was Master Ji, and hurriedly thanked him.

If I remember correctly, the person who was assassinated by that group of thieves yesterday was the granddaughter that Master Ji had just adopted.

Pei Jun didn't want to know this either, but since the two princes came together, he had no choice but to know!

Does Master Ji have any thoughts about me?

Thinking of Ji Yan's current status in front of the emperor, Pei Jun became even more panicked. After making repeated assurances, he left the palace with weak legs.

Although he was a third-rank official, he felt extremely frustrated as the prefect.

Hey!

As soon as he returned to the yamen, he called the prime minister and asked about the progress of the night.

The chancellor was also having a hard time, he didn't sleep all night...

……

After returning home from court, Prince Zhenxi felt a little uneasy, so he called his son over.

Mu Shengyan, however, was unmoved and just kept repeating one sentence, "Whoever made the mess should clean it up."

"Do you know that you can't write two characters for Mu with one stroke?"

The King of Zhenxi was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed, saying that his son was not as caring as his daughter!

Mu Shengyan didn't buy his father's words at all: "Now I know that you can't write two Mu characters with one stroke. When you indulged Mu Shiyi's mistakes, you didn't think about me."

"you--"

The King of Zhenxi was speechless with shame.

"Yan'er, now is not the time for us to waste time."

Since you won't take the hard way, then take the soft way: "Now, the censors have made suggestions and have alarmed the emperor. Pei Jun will definitely not let it go and will investigate our house sooner or later. Even if you don't do it for Yi'er, you should think about Jin'er, right? Yan'er, think of a solution."

At this time, King Zhenxi humbled himself as much as possible and begged his son.

Mu Shengyan could understand the meaning behind his words, but there was no way Her Royal Highness the Princess would interfere in this matter.

"There is a way."

The King of Zhenxi was delighted when he heard this.

But, it was also like a basin of cold water poured over me from head to toe.

"Either throw Yingtan out and put all the blame on him; or let Mu Shiyi plead guilty himself."
