I'm in trouble again! My best friend, the princess in the group, please save me!

"If Lord Hai has thought it through, Yan Qing can go home with you tonight." The prince pushed the key in front of him.

Mr. Hai was silent for a moment, but finally reached out for the key.

"Lord Hai!" The prince held his hand again.

He was so angry that his beard trembled, but he could only force himself to bear it.

It's not that he doesn't know what the prince means.

One hand delivers the goods to the other.

He took a deep breath, took out a tiger talisman from his arms, put it on the table, and then picked up the key.

This time, the prince just looked at him with a smile and did not stop him.

Prime Minister Hai stood up, turned around and left.

"No night!"

"exist."

"Lead the way, Master Hai!"

The two of them disappeared at the temple gate together.

The prince picked up the tiger talisman on the table, looked at it again and again, and then threw it back on the table.

Outside the East Palace, Hai Yanqing followed his father closely.

"father……"

"Come home with me!" Prime Minister Hai said with a stern face, without even turning his head.

Hai Yanqing lowered his head guiltily and hurried on.

On the carriage.

"Dad, I won't go to the palace unless necessary." He said guiltily.

"No, you have to go. Every day. The more often the better."

"Ah?" Hai Yanqing was confused.

"We must marry the princess." Prime Minister Hai gritted his teeth, his face fierce.

"What?" Hai Yanqing was shocked, and he looked outside evasively. "I don't want it. That woman is of low standard, she only has a pretty face, but she is fierce and brainless."

"Be good! Listen to me! Marry the princess and the position of the Price Equalizer will be yours." Prime Minister Hai said with a cold face.

"But your majesty has already done that. The order will definitely be rejected by the crown prince." Hai Yanqing didn't know why, but just wanted to find an excuse to refuse.

"The decree has been issued. Unless Your Majesty changes his mind, even the Great Luo Immortal cannot change it. Qing'er, you have no choice. For the Hai family, you can only do this!"

Prime Minister Hai patted him on the shoulder.

The two stopped talking, each with their own thoughts.

"Your Highness, something happened." Wu Ye suddenly came hurriedly.

"Speak!" the prince jumped up from the bed.

"Wan Muqing killed someone in Zui Chunfeng. The man was the son of the magistrate of Chi County. Although his father was only a small seventh-rank official, he was the younger brother of the mistress of the Hai family..."

The prince was speechless.

If it is related to the Hai family, then this matter cannot be resolved privately. It is bound to become a court dispute.

"Is this case being tried by the Ministry of Justice or the prefect of Youling Prefecture?"

"Your Highness, this incident just happened and has not yet been transferred to the Ministry of Justice. It will be tried in Youling Mansion tomorrow."

Youling Prefecture Government Office... Yan Buwan’s father has been dragged into this matter, and the new prefect is from... the Yang family.

A disciple of the Hai family.

This matter is fraught with difficulties. It seems that I must go there in person.

"Your Highness, there is one more thing."

"go on!"

The prince thought to himself: I can still bear it.

"The princess and Miss Jiang have lost their trace. Our people followed them to the inn, but we never saw them leave the house again."

Never mind. I can’t bear it.

"...Then go find it quickly!" The prince pressed hard on his swollen and aching temple.

"I'm already looking for them. Logically, our people have been guarding the door of the inn and have never seen the two girls go out. Besides, the inn doesn't have a back door..." Wu Ye looked at the prince's face cautiously.

"…She must have changed into men's clothes! When going out, it's always more convenient for men to do things!" The prince was very disappointed.

"Your Highness is very smart..."

"Stop flattering me! Don't come back to see me if you can't find anyone!" The prince kicked him away.

Ugh.

He tossed and turned with a sigh.

As soon as the palace gate opened, he galloped away on his horse.

Before dawn, Hai Yanze knocked on the door of Youling Prefecture's house.

He had just been awakened and sat in the yamen, beginning to try the Wan Muqingzui Qingfeng murder case.

Hai Yanze next to him just glanced at him, and he nodded guiltily.

"let's start!"

“Yes, yes, yes…” He slammed the gavel: “Wan Muqing! Do you admit your guilt?”

Wan Muqing below just stared blankly ahead, without saying a word or looking up.

Wei Chuchu standing aside had a pair of watery eyes that made me feel pity for her. She stood there, independent and aloof.

"How dare you! How dare you defy the court! Someone come! Torture him!" Yang's family shouted, and several jailers surrounded him.

"Sir! Sir! Torture to extract a confession is absolutely unacceptable!" Wei Chuchu rushed over and pushed the jailers away.

Yang Fuyin touched his chin and said, "You were also at the scene. Do you admit that you saw Wan Muqing killing people with a sword?!"

“...No...no, I didn’t see it clearly.” Wei Chuchu forced a smile.

"That's it! You don't admit it! He doesn't say anything! I can only make him confess!"

Yang Fuyin stole a glance at Hai Yanze beside him, but didn't give any instructions, so he shouted with confidence: "Come here! Execute him!"

"Wait!"

The prince rushed in on his horse, jumped off the horse quickly and landed in front of Yang Fuyin.

"Madam...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Yang Fuyin stammered something and everyone knelt down to salute.

Except Hai Yanze.

Hai Yanze just nodded.

The prince did not take it to heart and walked straight to the other side and sat down.

"Master Yang, please continue. I believe that Master Yang must be an upright official who is incorruptible and will redress injustices!"

"Borrow...borrow...the prince's auspicious words..." Yang Fuyin was sweating profusely.

There are two big Buddhas behind him, and he can't afford to offend either of them, which makes him feel like a thorn in his side.

"Punish... punish him!" He looked at Hai Yanze guiltily.

Hai Yanze just waved to him quietly.

"Someone come! Continue the torture!" He plucked up his courage and shouted.

"and many more!"

Prefect Yang looked at the prince nervously.

"As far as I know, Miss Wei Chuchu was at the scene, right?" The prince glanced at the woman in the hall.

"Yes." Wei Chuchu calmed himself down.

"Did you see Wan Muqing kill someone with your own eyes?"

“I… was in too much chaos at the time, so I didn’t see clearly.” Wei Chuchu denied while gritting her teeth.

"Your Highness... Your Highness... That's right... Wan Muqing didn't utter a single word, so we had to use torture to force him to speak..." Yang Fuyin wiped the sweat off his forehead and explained.

"In that case, aren't there two witnesses present? Why don't you call them?"

"Yes, yes, yes... Your Highness is right... I will summon you right away."

Jiang Xingkuo and An Huanyan were sleeping soundly together in the prison when they were rudely awakened by the jailer and taken out.

The two of them came to the lobby with sleepy eyes. Jiang Xingkuo suddenly rubbed his eyes and poked An Huanyan who was standing next to him with a confused look on his face.

"The one above...does he look like your brother..."

An Huanyan's sleepiness was immediately driven away.

The two of them looked up at the prince in the hall with embarrassment and could only smile awkwardly.

The prince was stunned, and after finally reacting, he covered his head and turned away.

...These two people...really...
