One touch and one silence

The two of them now understood the reason.

Madam Yu couldn't help but joked, "My husband, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will think that you took the initiative to get close to the prince?"

"That's right!" Xu Xueying held back her laughter and teased her father.

Yu Jijiu had an embarrassed look on his face. He looked at his wife and daughter and lowered his voice.

"The imperial physician has predicted that the Seventh Prince will not live past the age of 25. Do you think His Majesty will pass the throne to him? Definitely not! If not, what do I have to be afraid of?"

"Xueying, it would be good for you to get closer to this Seventh Prince. I have heard that this Seventh Prince is extremely intelligent. At such a young age, he solved a strange case on the third day of his appointment as Shaoqing in the Dali Temple."

"You know Li's Cloth Shop, right? Didn't Madam like to buy cloth from him before? It was the one that the Seventh Prince tore, three days old! You can imagine how smart this prince is."

Yu Jijiu's face was full of praise, which made Yu Xueying a little curious.

She had heard of this matter, but she didn't know it was related to the Seventh Prince.

She couldn't help but feel curious.

"Father wants to ask the Seventh Prince to buy some wine? Why doesn't he go buy it himself?"

She had also heard her father talk about the Seventh Prince brewing wine when he came back from the palace last time.

But she didn't understand, wouldn't it be better if her father bought it himself?

Who knows that Yu Jijiu, with a face full of sorrow, said, "Do you think your father doesn't want you to? You can't even have sex with me, your father!"

"The Seventh Prince was dying before, so who dared to let her make wine? I finally heard that the Seventh Prince was selling wine these days, but it was all bought by my father's superiors. How could it be your father's turn to buy it? Even the old chief priest didn't get a turn."

Yu Xueying didn't know what to say at this moment. Seeing her father's face full of resentment, she couldn't help but find it a little funny.

She had never seen her father like this before, and she actually found it a little funny.

"Don't worry, Daddy. I'll have someone deliver the invitation tonight."

Yu Jijiu did not expect to get such an unexpected surprise today, which was what he had always wanted, so he happily went to the Imperial College to report for duty.

Nanzhi went to the Dali Temple early this morning, and just when she was asking Yuan Wuqing if he had found any clues.

Yuan Wuqing was stunned at first, then he understood who the Seventh Prince was talking about.

"Are you asking about the second son of the Yongcheng Marquis family?"

Isn't this nonsense? Who else are you asking?

Nanzhi nodded.

"Oh! The case is closed. There really is no problem found. In addition, the higher-ups are pressing hard, and the scholars come to the gate of the mansion every day to make a scene, but no problem is found. Unable to withstand the pressure from both sides, the Dali Temple Minister closed the case."

Nanzhi roughly understood the urging from above, but what were the scholars urging him about?

"Why is the scholar making such a commotion at the gate of the mansion?"

Yuan Wuqing sighed, unable to put it into words, "It's still that Peony girl."

Nanzhi understood now.

Given Miss Peony's talent, it is understandable that those scholars fell in love with her.

But the problem was that she couldn't find any opportunity. The woman was very smart and different from normal people.

"The wife of Marquis Yongcheng didn't make trouble with you? Can she accept it?" Nanzhi felt that based on the information she saw from the prince, it might not be so easy to resolve.

"There is nothing you can do if you disagree. The body has been taken away by the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion and will be buried soon."

After saying that, he looked at Nanzhi with a little look.

How could Nanzhi not see the boy's doubts, but she just didn't say it.

"Is there anything going on in the Dali Temple today?" If nothing happens, I'll leave.

"Yes, there was a theft case some time ago. The theft was specifically aimed at stealing the property of the more affluent people in Beijing. In the past few days, several people have come to our Dali Temple to report the case."

Forehead!

Good guy!

That guy was sued.

"Is this matter also handled by the Dali Temple? Isn't it handled by the government offices in Kyoto?" Nanzhi wondered.

"Although they are in good hands, since they have reported the case to us, we at the Dali Temple have to investigate as well!" Yuan Wuqing explained.

Nanzhi understood after hearing this. She thought for a moment and then said, "I roughly know who is responsible for this matter. Go ask those wealthy businessmen who reported the case to you in about ten days."

Yuan Wuqing was puzzled, "What does Nan Shaoqing mean by this?"

Nanzhi was too lazy to explain in detail to him, "I have seen this man once. Every time he stole something, he gave it to the poor. I have asked him to reform himself. In a few days, he will return the property. Judging from the time you are here, he may be on his way back. Please wait for a while."

Who knew that Yuan Wuqing frowned, his face full of disapproval. "Your Highness, if you met him, why didn't you catch him? Even if you bring him back, you will still be punished by the laws of the Great Ling Dynasty."

Nanzhi spread his hands and said shamelessly, "I've already let him go. What do you want me to do? Go and catch him now?"

"I don't know where he is either."

"And I advise you not to act rashly. Those wealthy businessmen do have problems, and the thief and the people behind him are not people you can touch."

Nanzhi kindly reminded him that the man’s father was a powerful figure.

Since the other party has a repentant heart and is willing to make amends, Nanzhi naturally does not want to create unnecessary trouble. If he really catches the other party's son, given the current chaos, the other party can bring people and secretly kill Yuan Wuqing without being able to catch him.

People in the underworld are not so easy to mess with, and her cheap father certainly doesn't want to mess with them now.

"Who is he? How can I, the great Dali Temple, be afraid of a mere thief like him?"

Yuan Wuqing suddenly became angry.

Nanzhi understood that this guy was twisted.

"He's a man of the underworld. He kills people like cutting melons. How hard do you think your body is?" Nanzhi was so angry that she wanted to hit this guy on the head. She wanted to see how hard his head was.

His parents are both well-known and powerful figures in the underworld, and they have many underworld men under them.

They focus on loyalty and never kill innocent people. This is the information Nanzhi saw from the boy's memory.

Otherwise, that kid wouldn't have listened to others' instigation and dared to rob the rich and help the poor in Kyoto.

If she really touches that boy, her cheap father will be so angry that he will die on the spot.

It's already a headache to deal with the rebellion of Prince Zhennan, and it has offended people in the underworld. Isn't this just looking for trouble?

If you force people to go to Prince Zhennan, they will all die!

Hey ~

Nanzhi suddenly thought of a good idea, she had to go find the prince.

"As for Yuan Wuqing, follow my instructions. Remember what I said. Your Highness the Crown Prince will be in charge of this matter."

This was the first time that Nanzhi used his status as a prince to pressure others. After he finished speaking, he took Liu Yue away.

"Let's go to the East Palace and look for the prince."

Nanzhi's words made Liu Yue raise an eyebrow. Doesn't the master hate the palace the most?

Why did you take the initiative to go there today?

As soon as Nanzhi arrived at the East Palace, someone informed Steward Li, who was very happy.
