Upon hearing this, the other person also looked up quickly. After seeing who was coming, a flattering smile immediately appeared on his face, and he nodded and bowed to greet him.

"Your Highness, Qianmian, how come you have time to come here?"

Ouyang Jing stood with his hands behind his back, his face cold and his tone tinged with unquestionable authority: "I recently heard that Deputy Director Shang arrested the Jiang family for embezzling military funds. There are some suspicious points in this case, and I want to personally interrogate them."

The two men looked at each other and saw a hint of panic in each other's eyes.

One of them said quickly, "Your Highness, there is solid evidence that the Jiang family embezzled military funds. Moreover, this case has always been handled by Deputy Director Shang. If you rashly interrogate them, I'm afraid it will not be a good idea."

Jiang Yulian followed behind, and when she heard this, she suddenly became furious and clenched her fists secretly.

unambiguous evidence?

How ridiculous!

She knew very well what kind of people her parents were. They would never do something like embezzling military funds!

Ouyang Jing stared at the man who spoke with a cold expression, his tone tinged with sarcasm, "When did the Ministry of Punishment become Shang Zhize's domain? Even my orders are useless now."

Upon hearing this, the man trembled with fear and quickly knelt on the ground, saying tremblingly, "Your Highness, please forgive me. I dare not. I just..."

"Just what?" Ouyang Jing pressed on, his tone sharp.

The man was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, but he didn't dare to say another word.

Li Zhong knew what was going on when he saw this, so he quickly drew his sword, and with a flash of cold light, he put the sword on someone's neck.

Seeing this, Jiang Yulian drew the sword at her waist without hesitation and put it on the other person's neck.

The two men felt a chill on their necks, and a chill instantly spread throughout their bodies. They were so frightened that their souls flew out of their bodies. They begged for mercy quickly, "Your Highness, please spare us, Your Highness, please spare us!"

Ouyang Jing snorted coldly, with a hint of warning in his tone: "Lead the way!"

The two men did not dare to be negligent any longer, and hurriedly led the way, taking Xie Mishuang and Ouyang Jing to the place where the Jiang couple were imprisoned.

Ouyang Jing waved his hand, signaling them to leave: "I want to interrogate them individually."

The two men bowed and retreated as if they had been pardoned.

One of them did not forget to secretly look back, with a sinister light flashing in his eyes, and planned to quickly pass the message to Deputy Director Shang.

Jiang Yulian looked at the damp, dark and terrifying environment in front of her, feeling mixed emotions.

The air was filled with a musty smell that was nauseating.

In the dim candlelight, she saw her parents tied to the rack, covered in blood and dying.

She could no longer hold back her tears and they burst out.

"Dad! Mom!" Jiang Yulian rushed over, knelt in front of her parents, her voice choked with sobs.

When Jiang's father and mother saw their daughter, a glimmer of light flashed in their cloudy eyes, but it quickly dimmed.

"Lian'er, why are you here?" Father Jiang spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse.

"Dad, Mom, how are you? How dare they torture you?" Jiang Yulian looked at her parents with heartache, her eyes blurred with tears.

"Lian'er, don't worry, we are fine." Mother Jiang smiled weakly, trying to comfort her daughter, but it moved the wound and she frowned in pain.

Xie Mishuang looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but be moved.

She winked at Ouyang Jing, and the two of them retreated tacitly, leaving time for Jiang Yulian and her family of three.

At the same time, in Shang Mansion.

Shang Zhize was sitting in a rocking chair, eating grapes leisurely, with two maids fanning him.

"Young Master, news has come from the Jiang Mansion that Miss Jiang is missing." A guard hurried in to report.

"Oh? That Jiang Yulian?" Shang Zhize asked casually, as if it was an insignificant matter.

"Yes, sir." The guard replied with a nod.

"What tricks can she come up with?" Shang Zhize smiled disdainfully and continued eating grapes.

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler hurried in with a letter in his hand.

"Young Master, this is the letter just sent by the Ministry of Punishment." The butler said respectfully.

Shang Zhize took the letter, opened it casually, and his face changed immediately.

"Has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gone to the Ministry of Punishment?" Shang Zhize stood up suddenly, and the letter in his hand fell to the ground.

"Oh no! What is the Crown Prince doing in the Ministry of Punishment?" Shang Zhize's face was gloomy, and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

He quickly straightened his clothes and hurried towards the Ministry of Punishment.

Be careful in the punishment department.

"Lian'er, listen carefully, you must take care of yourself and don't worry about us." Father Jiang held Jiang Yulian's hand tightly, his tone heavy.

"Yes, Lian'er, you must live well." Jiang's mother also said, her eyes full of love and reluctance.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to save you." Jiang Yulian said firmly, tears glistening in her eyes.

After leaving the cell, Ouyang Jing pointed in a direction. Jiang Yulian looked at Ouyang Jing with understanding and gratitude, then turned around without hesitation and ran in the direction Ouyang Jing pointed.

Her figure was as fast as lightning and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Li Zhong looked at the direction where Jiang Yulian left, and his eyes lit up.

"What a beautiful martial art!" Li Zhong couldn't help but admire.

He had followed the prince for many years and had seen many martial arts masters, but this was the first time he had seen someone with such superb lightness skills as Jiang Yulian.

Then Ouyang Jing took Xie Mishuang through the long corridor and came to the main hall of the Ministry of Punishment.

The main hall is spacious and bright, with neatly arranged files and torture instruments on both sides, exuding a solemn and murderous atmosphere.

In the main hall, two deputy envoys were buried in front of the case, flipping through the files and discussing something in low voices.

Both were middle-aged men, one was thin with a goatee, and the other was obese with fat on his face.

Hearing the footsteps, the two of them looked up at the same time, saw Ouyang Jing, and quickly stood up and saluted.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince."

Ouyang Jing nodded slightly, walked straight to the main seat and sat down. Xie Mishuang followed closely behind him, standing quietly behind him.

The two deputy envoys secretly looked at Xie Mishuang and were secretly amazed.

Thousand-Faced Fox? How could he stand so close behind the Crown Prince?

Could it be...

The two deputy envoys looked at each other, and a hint of understanding flashed in each other's eyes.

It seems that the rumored abstinent and unfeeling Crown Prince is not really so indifferent to women!

Come to think of it, now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gotten married, he has finally tasted the pleasure of sex, so naturally he has become enlightened.

The two deputy envoys continued to deal with the case files in their hands while gossiping in their minds.

Soon, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard, and Shang Zhize rushed into the main hall with sweat all over his forehead.

"I am here to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Shang Zhize bowed hurriedly, his tone respectful but unable to hide his panic.

Ouyang Jing pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Isn't the Shang Si Envoy on holiday today? Why are you here suddenly?"
