The coughing King Han thought that if something happened to him one day, it must be because Zhu Jiu had angered him.

Zhu Jiu looked at King Han, who was coughing so hard that his face turned red.

[With my current status, should I pat him on the back? ]

[But someone who has walked out of a mountain of corpses must be very vigilant. What if he thinks I am approaching him with ulterior motives and slaps me?]

[Forget it, forget it. As an undefeated god of war, what’s there to be afraid of with a little cough? ]

King Han: ...He is very vigilant, but he is not blind.

After recovering, King Han looked at Zhu Jiu with a complicated look.

"Zhu Jiu, go and select twenty people to follow me to Jingci Temple."

Zhu Jiu choked. She had just arrived and had no one under her control, nor any power. The prince had not given her any token, so how could she recruit people?

Finger painting?

Or expect it to fall from the sky?

"Your Majesty, please tell me clearly, are the twenty people you need guards, secret guards, or servants?

I am stupid and don't know if I need a token or a token when I dispatch people?"

After Zhu Jiu asked this, King Han finally realized that Zhu Jiu was not like his four guards, and each of them had people under his command.

"I forgot that you are still a fool who knows nothing."

[Haha, the prince is also playing the game of putting the blame on someone else]

King Han thought that the princes were also flesh and blood, and could not withstand repeated attacks. They looked glamorous on the surface, but in reality, they did not have the peace of mind that ordinary people had.

In the end, this task still fell on Qingyun.

Zhu Jiu, who can't ride a horse, rides with Qingyun

Jingci Temple is different from Huaguang Temple. Huaguang Temple is famous and popular. But Jingci Temple is usually visited by women who have made mistakes in their families and the environment is very desolate.

However, the usually deserted Jingci Temple was now surrounded by the Jinyiwei, and the people who were meditating in the temple were also in a state of panic.

The horses galloped for an hour and a half, and the Han King and his party finally arrived at Jingci Temple. Zhu Jiu, who had endured the journey, finally breathed a sigh of relief. His butt was almost broken into pieces.

However, looking at the scene of the Jinyiwei surrounding the temple, I was full of doubts.

In the book, the King of Han found crucial evidence, but the person behind the scenes abandoned the case to save the king, and introduced a scapegoat. Neither the money nor the account plan was found, and the case was hastily closed.

What went wrong? Why did the plot change so drastically?

When the deputy commander He Sen saw his superior coming, he hurried forward to salute.

King Han asked, "Has anyone come in or out since midnight?"

He Sen replied respectfully, "Someone was making a noise, but I did not let him go."

"Have you found out who is making the noise?"

"I have already found out that she is the concubine of Marquis Pingyuan. She made a mistake and was punished to stay in a nunnery for two years. Today, her time has just expired and she is clamoring to leave."

King Han frowned, "Where are the others? Have you found any clues?"

"All the monks in the nunnery were interrogated one by one, but they all said they didn't know what was under the toilet.

The other dozen or so people from the aristocratic families who practiced cultivation with their hair untied were all interrogated, and they all said they didn’t know.”

King Han thought, it was just as he expected, fortunately he had two plans.

Whatever you think comes true, you can hear Zhu Jiu's thoughts immediately

[The fact that this was found shows that the case handling ability is not weak, but the object of the investigation is a little off.]

[The masters of Jingci Temple are all innocent. They have no idea that there is a mountain of silver hidden under the toilet where they defecate every day]

[However, the concubine of Pingyuan Hou is not innocent at all, and she is not a concubine at all, but a hidden assassin of Pingyuan Hou]

[Except for Pingyuan Hou and himself, no one knows that he is a man]

[The silver under the toilet was sent here through a secret passage. The monks in the nunnery didn’t know there was a secret passage under the toilet.]

【Follow the secret passage, maybe we can catch an important character? 】

Prince Han was shocked. He could not have imagined that such a big corruption case would be related to his uncle.

Could my uncle be the culprit behind this case of corruption and murder?

Does mother know what uncle has done?

Prince Han was very entangled. If his uncle got into trouble, his mother would definitely be implicated.

He went to the battlefield at a young age and crawled out from the mountain of corpses countless times, all for the sake of meritorious service to add bargaining chips to his mother's, so that his mother could live more comfortably in that cage where people were eaten without leaving any bones.

But if something happens to my uncle, how can my mother feel at ease?

Not only will the mother be implicated, but the three brothers and sisters who share the same mother will also be implicated.

I don't care, but my mother, sister and brother can't be in trouble.

He needs to think about what he can do to get his uncle out.

Zhu Jiu glanced at Prince Han's back. [I wonder how the prince would feel if he knew that the truth he had worked so hard to find was directed at his so-called family?]

[Is it ruthless and impartial, or is it to kill relatives for the sake of justice? 】

[Or is it favoritism and corruption? Protecting so-called relatives? ]

King Han was indeed very conflicted. He couldn't ignore the lives of the people and commit corruption for personal gain.

But he couldn't put a knife on the neck of his dearest relative.

King Han quickly thought of a solution in his head, looking for the best of both worlds.

Jinyiwei is dispatched, things cannot be covered up, but there is room for maneuver

King Han ordered He Sen to guard the entire nunnery and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

I will personally lead people to check the place where the silver is hidden. Are there any useful clues?

Without the king's permission, no one is allowed to enter without permission."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please be careful. There may be some hidden traps."

King Han asked the others to guard the entrance, and took Qingyun and Zhu Jiu down.

After knocking on the wall of the dark room, I finally found the difference. After breaking it open, I found a passage.

Qingyun lit a torch and led the charge, with King Han in the middle and Zhu Jiu in the back.

The three of them walked for half an hour in the winding passage, bending over, until they finally reached the end.

Qingyun touched the wall here and there, triggered the mechanism, and a stone door slowly opened.

After I walked out, I found that the entrance was actually designed in the rockery.

This is a quiet and elegant manor.

Qingyun said, "Your Majesty, I will go and investigate."

"Well, don't alert the enemy, report immediately if anything happens."

Prince Han still doesn't want to face this fact. He is afraid of catching his uncle in the act.

But the more you fear something, the more likely it will come to you. In the time it takes to stick an incense stick, Qingyun came back.

He glanced at the King of Sai, hesitated for a moment and said, "The guards are very lax, and there are not many servants serving.

The subordinates also found that Ji Yuze, the eldest son of Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, was discussing with several others in the study how to transport the silver out without anyone noticing.

I guess they don’t know yet that the prince has already found out about this.”

Qingyun didn't dare to look at the prince's face after he finished speaking.

King Han's heart sank to the bottom. As expected, the final result was what he least wanted to see.

Zhu Jiu quickly glanced at King Han, who was in a completely nonchalant attitude.

She even had two villains in her heart making bets, what choice would King Han make?

On one side is his so-called in-laws, on the other side is his real father, and countless ordinary people.

[I wonder if the prince will come down like a god and catch the murderer, or will he return quietly along the same route? ]
