The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Wen Rulan took Chu Yunxi back to the private room. Chu Yunxi said angrily, "Zui Chunfeng is so blatantly selling drugs. Aren't there any government officials to take care of it?"

Wen Rulan ate sunflower seeds slowly, "Who will take care of it? Is drug use illegal? Is drug trafficking illegal?"

Chu Yunxi was stunned. Yes, this was ancient times, the Dasui Kingdom. There was no law that stipulated that drug trafficking was illegal, and no one said that drug use was not allowed. Although everyone knew that Wu Shi San was harmful and addictive, the law did not strictly prohibit it!

"But even if it's not illegal, everyone knows the harm of drugs. How dare Zui Chunfeng do it so blatantly?"

"They weren't being blatant. Didn't you see that the stairs to the third floor were guarded? You saw that just now because you didn't take the usual route. It's not so easy for others to see and touch it."

Wen Rulan sipped tea and ate melon seeds, feeling very comfortable. She also commented on the dancers downstairs from time to time, "It's too soft, it makes people sleepy. I don't know why people here like this style."

Chu Yunxi frowned, thinking about how to take down the drug den here and stop it from harming people again.

Just as he was thinking about it, the curtain was lifted and Xiao Mubei walked in.

"How did you come?"

"I heard that you came to Zui Chunfeng, so I came here too. How was it? Did you find anything?" Xiao Mubei sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Yes." Chu Yunxi told Xiao Mubei what she had just seen, and Xiao Mubei threw the cup directly.

The servant came in hurriedly upon hearing the noise, but was frightened by Xiao Mubei's harsh yell and ran out again. Chu Yunxi had never seen Xiao Mubei so angry before. Only Wen Rulan sat steadily and continued to eat melon seeds.

"These people are simply lawless. They sell this kind of harmful stuff. You said that people who take these drugs will become more and more addicted and unable to get rid of them. In the end, they often fall into hallucinations and their behavior is uncontrollable. They will either be poisoned to death or be controlled by hallucinations and commit suicide, right?"

"That's right," Chu Yunxi nodded, "So this kind of drug must be banned. Otherwise, if it spreads over a large area, I'm afraid it will be very dangerous."

Xiao Mubei frowned. If he wanted to prohibit this matter by law, he had to make Emperor Sui Ming aware of the harm. How to make Emperor Sui Ming see it was also a difficult problem.

"What does His Majesty want to see you for?"

Chu Yunxi changed the subject. She never called Emperor Sui Ming "father" in front of him. Xiao Mubei understood and did not force her.

Speaking of this, Xiao Mubei also had a headache. "The Imperial Observatory calculated that the evil things that happened in the capital recently would endanger the imperial palace. It happened that today I borrowed a thousand guards and reported the heart-digging incident to my father. My father summoned me to ask about the matter in detail and ordered me to solve the case within ten days. If I fail to solve the case, the people in the Dali Temple will be held accountable."

"Ten days?" Chu Yunxi stood up. "What if the murderer doesn't show up in these ten days?"

Xiao Mubei rubbed his temples. "This is clearly a trap set by Zheng Yuan Rubai, the director of the Imperial Observatory, specifically for me. He wants my father to punish me. This time the prince has fallen. I'm afraid this is their revenge."

Wen Rulan said leisurely: "If it is a trap, then you don't have to worry about it."

Chu Yunxi also reacted immediately. She sat down and sorted out her thoughts. "Let's imagine, if this is a trap, is the Crown Prince's purpose just to let His Majesty punish you? Assuming that the case cannot be solved within ten days, you are a prince, and even if you are punished, it will not be too severe. The Imperial Observatory has spent so much effort, but the result is not painful. Is this possible?"

"Impossible, the prince just wants me to die." Xiao Mubei knew it very well.

"Yes, so this matter is definitely not simple. Solving the case within a limited time should only be the first step. I'm afraid they may have more tricks up their sleeves."

Xiao Mubei pondered and said, "For now, we have no choice but to solve the case. Now the Imperial Guards and the Dali Temple have been dispatched. It depends on whether there is any gain."

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn. Chu Yunxi said, "Brother, what's the point of these people digging out the dead's heart?"

Wen Rulan stood up, patted the dust that had just been stained, and said: "I don't know what the use is. I only know that if I am the one who digs out the heart, at this stage, I can either avoid the guards and the people of the Dali Temple and commit crimes to prove the incompetence of the Dali Temple, or I can find a way to confuse the sight of the Dali Temple so that they can't find the real direction."

Chu Yunxi nodded, "Yes, if it is a trap, the other party will definitely take action. They will not sit still just to let Your Majesty be punished. Let's go, Your Majesty, let's go back and wait for news."

"Go back and continue decorating. When you solve the case, remember to hold the celebratory party at Ruyun Building." After Wen Rulan finished speaking, she disappeared.

Chu Yunxi was speechless. Now that her senior brother had acquired martial arts skills, he could appear and disappear without a trace even more than before. When he was in the detective team, he loved to disappear.

Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi also came out to enjoy the spring breeze. They did not take a carriage, but walked slowly on the road.

The girls from the brothels nearby can be heard calling out to each other, and there are many examples of them flirting, and pretending to be shy. Inside the brothels, there are the sounds of stringed instruments and wind instruments. This street is truly a den of money and a haven for men in the capital.

"No wonder men are the ones who are addicted to drugs. Pornography, gambling and drugs have always been inseparable from ancient times to the present. Your Majesty, do you wealthy men all like to pursue excitement?"

Xiao Mubei was speechless, "Can I be the same as those people?"

Chu Yunxi smiled, "It's indeed different. What does the prince like? You have power and money, so the only thing left should be beauties."

"I've said before, I only wish to win the heart of one person, and grow old together with him." Xiao Mubei looked at Chu Yunxi and said seriously.

Chu Yunxi blushed, her heart suddenly panicked, she quickly turned her head and continued to walk forward, a panicked voice came over, "The prince is indeed different."

Xiao Mubei looked at her back, and the corners of his lips slowly curled up.

There was no conversation along the way. When they were almost at the gate of Dali Temple, a constable ran over and said, "Your Majesty, we have caught the murderer who stole my heart."

Chu Yunxi took a step forward and asked in surprise, "Really?"

The constable nodded, "Really? The person is already in the Dali Temple. Li Shaoqing is trying him. Your Highness and Princess should go and take a look."

Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi looked at each other and quickened their pace at the same time. It shouldn't be so fast, right? They caught him already? Could it be that their previous speculations were all wrong, and the other party was not prepared?

As soon as she entered the interrogation room, Chu Yunxi immediately saw a person kneeling on the ground, curled up into a ball, trembling with fear. When she got closer, she saw that it was an old man in his sixties with completely white hair. At this moment, he was tearfully explaining, "Sir, this is really the first time I have done such a thing. I was discovered before I stole it. I swear, I just wanted to steal a heart for my wife to cure her illness. I also left money for that family. Sir, please forgive me. My wife is still sick and waiting for me to take care of her."
