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

No matter who it was for, each of them had the honor of dining at the same table with King Dingbei. Bai Yu silently drank another bowl of soup, and Hei Mu quickly added a bowl of rice. They finished their meal in a flash, then used their lightness skills to chase Xiao Mubei.

There is an important mission tonight.

The only person who did not have any important tasks slept until dawn. After getting enough sleep, Chu Yunxi stretched out contentedly. She missed the days of vacation when she could do nothing and sleep until she woke up naturally. When could she take a vacation?

Chu Yunxi sat cross-legged on the bed, muttering, "This isn't right. Am I not a coroner? Why am I the one who handles all the investigations and reasoning recently? When there are no homicides, shouldn't I be on vacation?"

Thinking back carefully to the days after coming to the Dali Temple, she seemed to have taken on several duties, including coroner, reasoning, investigation, arrest, interview, interrogation, etc. Even if the capable are given more work, it can't be this much, right? She only made ten taels of silver a month, which was really too good for the price.

No, we must reduce the burden or increase wages!

It's decided. Let's go talk to the boss! Chu Yunxi made up her mind and resolutely stood up to open the door. Bai Yu, who was about to knock on the door, almost hit Chu Yunxi's nose with his finger.

He awkwardly withdrew his hand and said, "Miss, you are awake. His Highness invites you to come over."

"Okay, I'm just about to go find him." Chu Yunxi pushed Bai Yu aside and walked towards the study, "I have something important to tell the prince."

Bai Yu was confused. Didn't the girl just come back to sleep? How could she think of something important while sleeping?

Chu Yunxi said before she even entered the door: "Prince, I tell you, you can't..."

The words were stuck in my throat and I couldn't utter them. On the table in the middle of the study, there were a few baskets of steamed dumplings. Next to them were chicken porridge, delicious side dishes, exquisite desserts, and even after-meal fruits, including a plate of large round grapes.

Is this a food offensive? Chu Yunxi felt her stomach growling.

Forget it, let’s eat first. Food is the most important thing for people.

Chu Yunxi sat down at the table. This time, Baiyu Heimu also sat down consciously and ate with Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi. Chu Yunxi nodded while eating the dumplings. Not bad, not bad. This child is teachable.

When Chu Yunxi had almost finished eating, Xiao Mubei said, "I found out that Yue Haoran's master is named Wu Di."

Chu Yunxi was eating side dishes while listening, and when she heard Xiao Mubei stop talking after this, she couldn't help but look up, only to see Xiao Mubei's serious face.

"What's wrong? Is there something special about this Wu Di?"

Xiao Mubei said slowly: "He is the son of the founding monarch of Nandi, and the brother of the previous emperor of Nandi. His official title is - Regent."

Chu Yunxi had just taken a sip of shredded chicken porridge, but before she could swallow it, she choked. She started coughing violently, and the three men sitting there immediately panicked. One of them hurried to pat her back, one handed her a handkerchief, and one handed her water.

Chu Yunxi coughed for a long time, her face turned red, and she finally stopped coughing. She took the water handed to her by Bai Yu and drank it in one gulp. She then took the handkerchief handed to her by Hei Mu and wiped her mouth. She turned around and said to Xiao Mubei who was holding her back, "What are you talking about, Wu Di, who is that?"

"The previous regent of Nan Di," Xiao Mubei sat down again after seeing that Chu Yunxi had calmed down. "However, since Nan Di changed its current emperor, Wu Di asked for the title of regent and disappeared since then. He has not appeared in Nan Di for more than 20 years. The spies could not find any news about him and thought he had died long ago."

"Hide your identity and do great things." Chu Yunxi had no appetite to eat anymore, so she asked Hei Mu to take away the food. She analyzed, "If that's the case, Wu Di's purpose in creating this organization is probably to disintegrate each country from the inside one by one, so as to clear obstacles for Nan Di. They have been planning for so many years, and they have people in each country. So their purpose is probably..."

"I'm afraid he wants to destroy all the countries and unify the country." Xiao Mubei continued what Chu Yunxi had not finished saying.

Chu Yunxi felt as if she had been inadvertently involved in a huge circle of right and wrong. She was just a small coroner, so how did she get involved with national affairs?

"Also, Yue Qingyun admitted that He Yunsen was a spy they had planted in the capital, responsible for making poisons and secretly poisoning officials. However, He Yunsen was not willing to do this because he was an excellent medicine maker. So Wu Di took his children hostage and threatened him to stay here."

"He Yunsen? The owner of Taihetang Pharmacy?" Chu Yunxi felt overwhelmed. "How could they be so despicable? Did they use He Yunsen's children to threaten him to commit suicide in the end?"

"That's right," Xiao Mubei nodded, "They have been exposed and must die, but those people promised He Yunsen and his wife that as long as they commit suicide, the child will grow up safely and will give them a future, but if they don't commit suicide, the child will die."

"How despicable!" Chu Yunxi slammed the table and stood up, her voice changing with anger, "Using children to threaten people to work for them is worse than beasts."

"These people have no bottom line. I've heard from Marquis Zhongyong that Wu Di is ruthless and merciless. When he was the regent, he was ruthless. When he was eliminating dissidents, he killed people without mercy. Countless people have died at his hands."

Chu Yunxi suddenly heard a familiar name, "Zhong...my father, do you know Wu Di?"

"I know him. Wu Di was once on the battlefield. He is a skilled warrior, brave and good at fighting. He is also arrogant and conceited. He is a strong enemy of Dasui. The one who fought against him at that time was none other than the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery."

So that's how it is. Dad, can you please protect me and help me catch Wu Di as soon as possible and solve this case? Next, I will investigate the case of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion to clear your name.

"Then have you found out where Wu Di might be?"

"I have asked. I have sent a message to Li Jinghong to investigate one by one. So far, no news has been sent back. Wu Di is now a frightened bird. He must be hiding very well. It may be difficult to find him."

Chu Yunxi knocked on the table. "It's really hard to catch him. Don't forget, he has another skill, disguise. He only needs to keep changing his appearance. If he doesn't speak, it won't be that easy to find him. Besides, I suspect Nankun Martial Arts School is just one of his bases. He should have other bases."

Xiao Mubei said in a serious tone, "I am more worried about another thing now." He paused, and then said, "Since he placed Yue Haoran with my third brother, it means that my third brother is in collusion with him. If he seeks protection from my third brother this time, I am afraid we will never be able to find him."

"You mean, he might have hidden in Prince Jingyuan's Palace?" Chu Yunxi was also worried. If that was the case, it would be too difficult to find him. Apart from the emperor, who would dare to search the prince's mansion?
