After being married off by my younger sister, I took care of the sickly prince

Taking advantage of the dark night and strong wind, Zhufeng came to the official residence near Shuntian Prefecture.

The people living in the official residence were all yamen runners from Shuntian Prefecture who needed to be summoned to work at any time.

The coroner that the princess asked her to find was among them.

Zhufeng had already found out the location before coming, so he easily found the room of coroner Liu Erzhu.

Liu Erzhu is 45 years old this year. Because he often has to deal with the dead, no one is willing to marry a girl to him, so he is still a bachelor.

He himself wasn't very ambitious and was rather sloppy. The dishes and chopsticks he'd used for meals would pile up on the table until they became moldy. His clothes, shoes, and socks were piled up in the corners. Empty wine jars were scattered all over the floor.

Dozens of complex smells intertwined in the room, it was truly unpleasant...

But Liu Erzhu, lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, was sleeping soundly.

Zhufeng covered his nose and looked at the person on the bed with disgust.

Fortunately, the cleanest place in the room was the bed, and there was Liu Erzhu lying on the bed wearing a snow-white underdress.

Zhufeng jumped directly onto the bed and slapped Liu Erzhu in the face.

The slap was so hard that Liu Erzhu's face swelled up on the spot.

Awakened by the sudden pain, Liu Erzhu opened his eyes suddenly and saw a man standing at the head of his bed, looking down at him.

He was so frightened that he quickly retreated to the wall and opened his mouth to shout.

Zhufeng was quick-witted and quick-handed, kicking him on the head, knocking Liu Erzhu unconscious.

Then he grabbed Liu Erzhu's neck with disgust and left the residence silently.

When he brought Liu Erzhu back to Chong'an Palace, it was already late at night.

Jiang Yun had already lain down with Fu Xuanyu.

Although I can't touch Fu Xuanyu during this period, I can still hold him while sleeping.

However, Jiang Yun lay down with his clothes on, and as for Fu Xuanyu, Jiang Yun kindly helped him take off his clothes.

So when Jiang Yun heard Zhufeng calling her outside the window, she opened her eyes instantly.

She glanced at Fu Xuanyu who was already asleep, got out of bed silently, opened the door and walked out.

Outside the door, Zhu Feng reported respectfully, "Princess, I have brought the person you requested to you."

As he spoke, he pointed at the middle-aged man in his undergarments lying on the ground.

Jiang Yun directly moved a chair and sat in the corridor, and ordered Zhu Feng: "Wake him up, this princess has something to ask him."

Zhufeng walked directly to Liu Erzhu and kicked him lightly with his leg.

He didn't use much force in that kick just now, so Liu Erzhu wouldn't be dizzy for too long.

At this moment, he was kicked by Zhufeng and sat up suddenly.

Then he found himself in a different place.

Liu Erzhu has been disemboweling the dead, and sometimes even has to torture the living, so he doesn't believe in the existence of ghosts in the world. If there really are ghosts, why don't those who he disemboweled come back to find him?

So he clearly realized that he was being kidnapped.

He turned his head to look at Zhufeng and saw that Zhufeng didn't even cover his face. This was a sign of his death!

Liu Erzhu instantly felt that something was wrong and quickly filtered out the people he had offended in his mind, but none of those faces matched Zhufeng's.

Just as he was daydreaming, a cold female voice came from behind him.

"Liu Erzhu, do you still remember Doctor Du Qiushi, the one you wronged?"

Liu Erzhu's pupils shrank, and he turned his head immediately, and saw a stunningly beautiful woman sitting in the magnificent corridor.

Although he was a coroner, he had seen many noble people, but this was the first time he had seen someone with such an extraordinary temperament like this woman.

Liu Erzhu immediately knelt down and directly betrayed his superior.

"Please spare my life, aunt! I was just following orders. If you want to blame me, please go to my superior, Lord Guo, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture!"

Jiang Yun raised her eyebrows.

Although Shuntian Prefecture Governor Guo Qing did not hold a high official rank, he was responsible for supervising all officials in Phoenix City under the emperor's feet. No matter what happened, he basically reported directly to the emperor.

Now when she was told that Lord Guo was involved in a case involving a small-time figure like Doctor Du, Jiang Yun didn't believe it.

She sneered, "Lord Guo is already busy supervising the Imperial City, how can he care about such a trivial matter?"

Liu Erzhu immediately said loudly and quickly, "Auntie, please be clear! Cen'er's husband's mother-in-law is Lord Guo's aunt. The two families are related. When his aunt came to Shuntian Prefecture on her own initiative, I accompanied Lord Guo to receive her."

After he finished speaking, he knocked his head to the ground.

Jiang Yun had just gotten to know some of the forces within Phoenix City when Lord Guo, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, suddenly appeared.

Originally, she thought it was just the result of Liu Erzhu taking money to do the job, but now it seems that it is indeed the result of Lord Guo shielding the suspect and finding someone to take the blame!

But isn’t it said in Phoenix City that Lord Guo is the most discerning and fair and just?

Moreover, Fu Xuanyu also told her that Lord Guo, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, was a loyal minister who only obeyed the orders of the emperor.

Would a person like that shield a criminal just for the sake of their relationship?

She looked at Liu Erzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, with a sinister look on her face and said, "If I find out you're lying to me, I'll chop you into pieces and feed you to the wolves."

Liu Erzhu shuddered violently. This woman claimed to be a princess?

There is only one princess in Phoenix City now, and that is Princess Chong'an.

Although Prince Chong'an is a sickly man, Princess Chong'an will become a widow sooner or later.

However, Lord Guo, who often went to the palace to meet the emperor, naturally reminded his subordinates many times that no matter what people in Phoenix City said about Prince Chong'an, they should stay away from Prince Chong'an to avoid causing trouble.

It’s because the emperor truly loves this son!

Now that he has fallen into the hands of Princess Chong'an, he is simply putting his life on fire!

He immediately kowtowed and said tremblingly, "I dare not lie or deceive the princess."

Jiang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly, "Tell me, tell me everything you know about Mr. Guo, without missing a single word."

Liu Erzhu seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and he told everything he knew about Lord Guo like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

Even the fact that Mr. Guo loves to drink sweet tofu pudding was mentioned...

Jiang Yun was speechless, but did not interrupt Liu Erzhu.

Because she could feel that Liu Erzhu's mental state was at a critical point. If she continued to scare him, Liu Erzhu would probably be frightened silly...

Since she didn't interrupt, it was even less likely that Zhufeng would speak.

So Jiang Yun and Zhufeng listened to Liu Erzhu's long-winded words.

Those words were almost all nonsense, except for one sentence that Jiang Yun found useful.

That is, 'Mr. Guo listens to his mother very much'.
