Crazy and bad again, the princess is the best in Beijing

When Shi Wanwan and Shen Yi arrived at Jingzhao Prefecture, they happened to meet Qin Feihe who was about to get off duty.

Qin Feihe's temples started throbbing as soon as he saw her. He knew she was a troublemaker and wanted to leave by taking a detour.

Shi Wanwan greeted him happily, "Master Qin, are you on duty again today? What a coincidence!"

Qin Feihe didn't want this kind of coincidence at all. He tried hard to maintain a businesslike expression on his face: "What's wrong with the princess?"

He was not on duty today, but he had not finished dealing with last night's affairs, so he just got off duty!

He just wants to go home now and doesn't want to see her at all!

Shi Wanwan said happily, "I was assassinated again. Someone pretended to be an official from the Ministry of Justice and went to the Imperial College to assassinate me, but I saw through his plan on the spot."

"It's great that Lord Qin is on duty. Interrogating these people may yield some new progress."

Qin Feihe: "..."

Who would be so desperate as to pretend to be an official and assassinate Shi Wanwan? He didn't want this new development at all!

However, he was indeed responsible for the assassination of Shi Wanwan, and he could not shirk his responsibility at this time, so he could only continue to follow up.

He took a deep breath and said, "Princess, please follow me."

Shi Wanwan praised him: "Master Qin is such a kind person!"

Qin Feihe didn't want this kind of praise at all, and forced a smile: "My Lord, you are too kind. It's just my duty."

This case can be easily investigated because Jingzhao Prefecture often has dealings with the Ministry of Justice, and some people know the officials of the Ministry of Justice.

Qin Feihe then said to Shi Wanwan, "Princess, they are indeed officials from the Ministry of Justice."

What he meant was that Shi Wanwan had misunderstood and those people were not assassins.

Shi Wanwan's eyes widened as she asked, "Have all these officials gone mad from poverty? They're actually breaking the law knowingly and being bribed to carry out assassinations?"

Qin Feihe: "..."

Shi Wanwan continued, "Master Qin, this case is extremely serious. You must find out who is behind this!"

"Otherwise, if all the officials are ready to assassinate, how can the people of Beijing feel safe in the future?"

Qin Feihe: "..."

He originally wanted to refute a few words, but then he remembered something and went back into the interrogation room.

Shi Wanwan yawned, found a place to sit down, and poured herself a cup of tea.

She felt that practice makes perfect. She was a little nervous when she first came to Jingzhao Prefecture, but now she can completely treat this place as her own home.

After all, this was the place where she had stayed the longest since she traveled through time, apart from the princess's mansion.

It feels so welcoming here!

The officer who was knocked unconscious by Shen Yi also woke up. The interrogation room was in chaos. Shi Wanwan took a sip of tea comfortably.

Not long after, people from the Ministry of Justice came, and this time they brought investigation documents.

The person who came from the Ministry of Justice was a fifth-rank official named Huang Xi, who was about forty years old. He always smiled at everyone he saw and looked very smooth.

As soon as he arrived, he bowed and said to Shi Wanwan, "What happened today was truly a misunderstanding."

"The Ministry of Justice immediately began investigating the case of imperial examination cheating. Since the princess was implicated in the incident, they wanted to ask her to assist with the investigation."

"Because the matter was of great importance and the officials were impatient, they went to the Imperial College to invite the princess even before the official documents were issued."

"I didn't expect to cause such a big misunderstanding. I apologize to the princess first."

"Please, my lady, go to the Ministry of Justice and cooperate with the investigation."

Qin Feihe glanced at Huang Xi. There were several people in charge in the Ministry of Justice, and he disliked Huang Xi the most.

When Huang Xi came in, someone called Qin Feihe. He went out for a while and just heard these words when he came back.

He then said, "The Jingzhao Prefecture shouldn't interfere with the Ministry of Justice's affairs, but this process does have problems."

"The case of the princess's assassination has been accepted by Jingzhao Prefecture. The mastermind behind it has not yet been found, and the princess is still in danger."

"If Mr. Huang has anything to ask the princess, he can ask her in Jingzhao Prefecture."

Huang Xi's smile froze. He raised his eyelids and looked at Qin Feihe: "Is this inappropriate?"

Qin Feihe said seriously, "The normal investigation process in our dynasty is for each prefecture to accept various cases, and ordinary cases are handled by each prefecture on its own."

"Only when we encounter a major or controversial case will it be submitted to the Ministry of Justice for trial. If the Ministry of Justice cannot find the answer, it will be transferred to the Dali Temple."

"The imperial examination cheating case is a major one, but it happened in Jingzhao Prefecture. According to the procedures, Jingzhao Prefecture should handle it first, and only after it fails to handle it will it be transferred to the Ministry of Justice."

"It's somewhat against the rules for the Ministry of Justice to directly investigate this case, bypassing Jingzhao Prefecture."

Huang Xi said with a forced smile, "Could it be that Shao Yin Qin wants to bring this case to Jingzhao Prefecture?"

Qin Feihe said expressionlessly, "No, I am only discussing this matter from the perspective of the law and past rules."

"This case is too big. It not only involves all the students in this world, but also the Princess Yongning, who was conferred by His Majesty, as well as all the invigilators and examiners."

"This is a serious case. The Jingzhao Prefecture can't handle it, and the Ministry of Justice can't handle it either. In the end, it will most likely be tried by the three courts."

"I am now discussing the process of this case. There were problems with the process from the beginning. I suspect someone is derelict in their duty or abusing their power."

The muscles on Huang Xi's face twitched. After Qin Feihe put the hat on him, he didn't know what to say.

He forced a smile and said, "In that case, I will interrogate you in Jingzhao Prefecture. Sir Qin, please arrange a room for me."

Qin Feihe nodded. As he escorted Shi Wanwan over, he whispered, "Huang Xi is very cunning. Princess, be careful."

He actually didn't want to get involved in Shi Wanwan's affairs, but someone had told him to protect her, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight with Huang Xi.

Shi Wanwan used to think that Qin Feihe was easy to talk to, but when he confronted Huang Xi just now, she realized that he was not a simple person.

Yes, he was only in his early twenties, but he could have become the Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture. He couldn't be a simple person.

She could sense that Qin Feihe was a little annoyed with her, but he helped her at the critical moment...

interesting!

She said seriously: "Thank you for the reminder, Lord Qin. Good people will be rewarded."

Qin Feihe: "..."

This was the second time Shi Wanwan had given him the nice guy card, and he didn't want it at all.

He just wanted this troublemaker like her to stay away from him!

He said calmly, "You are too polite, Princess."

Although Qin Feihe saved Shi Wanwan from being taken away by the Ministry of Justice, he could not attend the trial of this case.

After talking to Shi Wanwan for a few words, he left the space to Huang Xi and Shi Wanwan.

Although Shi Wanwan is a suspect at the moment, her identity is there, there is no real evidence, and this is Jingzhao Prefecture, so Huang Xi cannot use torture.

Just in case, Qin Feihe waited outside.

If something happened to Shi Wanwan in Jingzhao Prefecture, the responsibility would be too great for him to bear.

After Shi Wanwan sat down, Huang Xi walked in.

He smiled and said, "I'll ask the princess a few questions. Please answer me truthfully."
