The Censorate had the power to make decisions on major matters and make immediate decisions on minor matters. Once it received a report or impeachment, no matter who the person was, they would be arrested.

Jiusu asked: "Do we know the officials in the Censorate?"

"Not familiar." Jiang Jing shook his head. "The Left Censor-in-Chief is the emperor's man, and the Right Censor-in-Chief is the Prince of Chang's man."

They were unable to contact anyone from the Censorate, so they had to go to the Prince's Mansion.

The prince recovered well, and took this opportunity to bide his time and accompany the Crown Princess at home to take care of her pregnancy. When he heard that the Marquis had been arrested, his eyes narrowed slightly, and asked the maid to help the Crown Princess go down.

He snorted coldly.

"Xu Cairong is so bold!"

If you pick a hard persimmon to squeeze, you will break your hand.

Jiusu bowed and said, "Please, Prince, find out why my father was arrested."

Xu Qihuai said: "You two should change your clothes and come with me to the Censorate."

Disguised as a maid and servant, she sneaked into the Censorate and successfully entered the iron prison of the Censorate. Jiusu looked around and saw that it was clean. For some reason, she felt that someone had let her in on purpose.

Until she saw the marquis covered in wounds.

Only then did she realize that the person in the dark did it on purpose, trying to disgust her and anger her.

"Father," she called.

Li Ningwan opened her eyes and smiled weakly: "Yuyu, why are you here? Get out quickly, it's too dirty here. Jiang Jing, hurry up, take her away."

Jiusu shook his head.

With tears in his eyes, he grabbed the iron railing and asked, "Father, why did the people from the Censorate arrest you?"

Li Ningwan coughed up blood. He said, "I oppressed the people, took bribes, embezzled money, and someone accused me of murder, but I didn't do any of these. I didn't understand at first, but now I understand. Someone wanted to drag me down."

"How can they beat people up when they have no evidence?" Jiusu's voice was tinged with anger.

Li Ningwan smiled nonchalantly: "I guess they planned to torture me all morning in an attempt to force a confession out of me. Unfortunately, they underestimated me and overestimated themselves."

Just one hour.

He suffered all the pain in this life.

He swore secretly in his heart that he would never plead guilty and would never compromise even if it meant death.

My daughter has a bright future. As a father, how dare I hold her back?

Jiusu said: "Don't worry, your daughter will definitely rescue you."

"Yuyu, don't be so stubborn." Li Ningwan frowned, seemingly disapproving of his daughter taking risks for him. He looked at his future son-in-law, "Jiang Jing, I think you are a calm person. Keep an eye on Yuyu and don't let her mess around."

Jiang Jing bowed and said, "Yes, I understand."

Xu Qihuai walked over quickly and said, "It's almost time. We should go out. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with if we are discovered."

Who knows.

As soon as he walked out of the prison, he ran into King Chang who was sitting on a bench.

It is impossible for a bench to appear out of thin air at the door. It is obvious that Xu Changrong is waiting for someone here.

Prince Chang turned around, smiling, "Oh, Third Brother, oh, no, Your Highness the Crown Prince, how did you learn to break into the Censorate? But don't worry, Third Brother, I'm here to protect you, no one will know."

He is confident, extremely self-assured.

It was obvious at first glance that it was Prince Chang who was behind this.

Jiusu sneered: "Why, you are not a human?"

Prince Chang was not annoyed. He chuckled and said, "Miss Jiu, why are you so angry? However, I like you very much. Do you want to talk to me alone? For example, let's talk about your father's life."

The prince stood aside with Jiang Jing.

There were only two people left in front of the prison.

Prince Chang said, "If you beg me, I will order someone to release the Marquis."

"I beg you." Jiusu said.

Prince Chang paused for a few seconds and said, "Please beg for it."

Jiusu said: "I begged for it."

King Chang laughed angrily: "How can you be so polite when asking for help?"

"I don't know how." Jiusu raised the corner of his mouth, "How about Your Majesty show me?"

Seeing that she was sincere in her request, Prince Chang bowed with both hands and said politely, "You are so generous, please let my father go. From now on, I will serve you like a cow or a horse, and go through fire and water to repay your kindness."

Suddenly, there was a weight on my shoulders.

He looked up and saw that it was Jiusu's hand patting his shoulder. It should have been a very happy thing to have contact with a beautiful woman, but Prince Chang felt that her expression was not right.

Jiusu smiled vaguely, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Don't be so polite. You don't have to go through fire and water. Just be a cow or a horse in front of me from now on."

aside.

Jiang Jing lowered his head, thoughtfully.

Prince Chang came to his senses and realized he had been fooled! His eyes darkened: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill him?"

Jiusu's eyes were calm and he went straight to the point: "My father was a marquis after all. He lost his life for no reason. I don't believe that anyone would turn a blind eye. You can do whatever you want in the Censorate, but the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice are not there to eat for nothing."

She licked her back teeth, and then a chill rose in her stomach.

"I forgot that you have no brains. In other words, if you kill him, I will kill you."

Prince Chang took a half step back, a look of horror on his face: "I am the prince! I am the emperor's son!"

Jiusu said meaningfully: "It's normal for people to get sick and die after eating whole grains, right?"

Xu Changrong felt a chill on his back and was immediately terrified. He remembered that this woman knew medicine and could even cure Jiang Jing's broken tendons.

No, you can't mess with her.

"I was just joking. If you want to save the prince, I have a way. I know someone in the Censorate. As long as you follow me, I can use my connections to get the prince out."

Jiusu sneered: "How can a person marry a pig? Stop joking."

Seeing that there was nothing useful to talk about with him, he turned around and left the Censorate with Ajing and the Prince, leaving the "pig" jumping up and down on the spot.

No time was wasted.

Went to the palace.

But the emperor avoided her, saying that he was worried about state affairs. Then, waves of ambiguous hums came from the imperial study, the meaning of which was very clear.

I would rather be happy than worry about this matter.

Before leaving the palace, Yunxiang ran out and bowed. She said, "Miss, the things you developed are good, but the mouth of the bottle is a little rough. If you can manage it well and find out who cuts corners, you can get rid of the pests and restore the ointment to its original purity. But I think it's normal that you can't manage all the shops you have."

Jiusu remembers it.

Leaving the palace and sitting in the carriage.

Her eyes trembled slightly, and she thought: "Restore Gaozi's innocence?"

"My mother is also joking?" Even if Xu Qihuai was dumb, he could still guess that this was a hint from his mother. His mother was busy with all kinds of things, would she care whether the bottle was rough? Of course not.

Jiang Jing said: "What if you interpret this sentence as clearing the prince's name?"

Jiusu snapped her fingers, and then everything was clear. She raised her voice slightly, "My father is innocent, but there is something unclean about him. That man cut corners, interfered, and teamed up with Prince Chang to frame my father!"

Jiang Jing agreed: "She also said there are many shops. We can probably start our investigation from the Li Mansion shop."

When the carriage reached the downtown area, it was stopped.

It was the maidservant beside the Crown Princess. Ziyin said in a trembling and choking voice, "Your Highness, the concubine broke into the main courtyard and insisted on pestering the Crown Princess. Now, a quarrel has started."
