The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy

With a sound of bone breaking, Qin Miaoxi came to the side of the guard and lightly flicked his hand as it was about to touch Lu Shiya. His hand fell down powerlessly and drooped as if its tendons were broken.

Lu Shiya gave him a grateful look. The opponent's martial arts were strange, and she couldn't even avoid his pursuit with her own skills. Although he seemed ordinary, he actually had hidden strength. He was definitely an intermediate to advanced master.

Qin Miaoxi looked at the guard thoughtfully. He seemed to be unaware of the pain and there was no expression on his face.

"what are you doing?"

The smug smile on the third princess's face froze in an instant, and fear flashed across her eyes. She asked with pretended calmness, but her voice didn't sound intimidating at all.

Qin Miaoxi smiled slowly and said, "The Third Princess's guards are dishonest. I will help you deal with them. You don't have to be polite to me. I will just do you a good deed today."

The third princess's face was filled with anger, but she dared not say anything when she met Qin Miaoxi's half-smile in her eyes.

"You... are fine."

Qin Miaoxi agreed generously, "Thank you for the compliment, Third Princess. I wonder if the princess is in a good mood to talk to you now."

The shopkeeper was very considerate and immediately arranged a quiet room for them.

The third princess followed into the room angrily, "If you have something to say, tell me now."

Lu Shiya went straight to the point and said, "After your housekeeper looked for the maids in my house, they died mysteriously."

The Third Princess slammed the table in anger, "Lu Shiya, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that I sent the housekeeper to kill your maid?"

"Why are you so anxious, Third Princess? I'm not talking about you."

Qin Miaoxi stared at her facial expression intently, the corners of her lips were tightly clenched, but there was a hint of panic.

"You mean the housekeeper of this palace?"

"I never do anything I'm not sure of."

The third princess fell silent. Lu Shiya was a cautious person and would not have come to her door openly if she did not have solid evidence.

"I don't know. You can go back to the mansion with me and ask me face to face."

"You know, because it was the Third Princess that you sent the housekeeper to find a few people."

Qin Miaoxi suddenly interrupted her, attracting the attention of the two men.

"Madam Hou, please be careful with your words. What evidence do you have?"

Qin Miaoxi stared into her eyes, speaking word for word, and said to herself, "Send your housekeeper to the Princess's Mansion to inquire about Princess Xinglan's food, clothing, housing, transportation, and..."

The third princess was shocked and swallowed subconsciously, staring at her intently.

【Did she know? 】

Qin Miaoxi raised her eyebrows. What was she afraid of knowing?

Whatever it is, it is definitely not what was just said.

"Murder, frame-up, and entrapment."

bang~

The Third Princess slammed the table in anger and stood up, "Madam, you are talking nonsense without any evidence. I can punish you for disrespect."

[Even if I kill them, it doesn't matter. They are ungrateful and cannot be used by me. They deserve to die.]

"Really? Then why not ask the Dali Temple to investigate and find out the truth."

The third princess was speechless, her sharp eyes gleaming with coldness.

"Madam Hou, there are some things you can do in life, and some things you shouldn't do that you should avoid."

Qin Miaoxi nodded in agreement, "The Third Princess is absolutely right. Shall we go to the Dali Temple now?"

"you……"

The third princess was about to ask the guards to teach her a lesson, but suddenly she saw the hanging hand, and her words got stuck in her throat.

The two sides confronted each other, and the atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense.

"Third sister, are you here?"

The door suddenly opened, and the eldest prince walked in with a smile. When he saw Lu Shiya, he immediately greeted her with surprise, "Princess, you're here too! We are truly destined to be together."

Lu Shiya saluted him expressionlessly, "Greetings, the eldest prince."

"No need to be so polite. Princess, if you have any jewelry of your choice, I will give it to you." The eldest prince stared at her with burning eyes, and his thoughts were obvious.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I didn't choose any jewelry." Lu Shiya lowered her eyes, her eyes full of impatience and disgust.

The eldest prince made his words so clear that she couldn't avoid him even if she wanted to.

"Then why don't I help the princess choose one!" The eldest prince shouted, "Shopkeeper, take out all the best jewelry in your store."

"That's really not necessary. I'm not familiar with the First Prince, so how can I let him spend money?" Lu Shiya refused bluntly, then turned to look at the Third Princess and said, "Third Princess, are we going or not?"

The third princess said coldly, "Brother, please accompany the princess to choose carefully! Let's go."

Several people followed the third princess away in shame.

As they passed each other, Qin Miaoxi subconsciously took another look at the guard.

He had a familiar smell, as if I had smelled it somewhere before, but I couldn't remember where it was.

Have I seen this person before?

Without the third princess present, the eldest prince became more arrogant, standing beside Lu Shiya and asking her all kinds of questions. If he was not afraid of Lu Shiya's martial arts, who knows what he would have done.

"Princess, the weather is nice and clear today. How about I go boating with you?"

Before Lu Shiya could say anything, Qin Miaoxi had already declined for her, "Grand Prince, the princess still has to cooperate with the Ministry of Justice in investigating the case. I'm afraid she doesn't have time to go boating with you."

The eldest prince's smile froze slightly, and he said regretfully, "Of course, official business is more important. I'll invite the princess next time I have the chance."

Lu Shiya did not answer, but bowed and walked out.

After watching the two leave, the eldest prince's servant said sarcastically, "Princess Xinglan is truly ungrateful. Your Highness sincerely invited her, but she coldly refused. She doesn't even take you seriously."

"Shut up, you can't slander the princess at will."

The eldest prince scolded with a gloomy face, but he secretly clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.

The servant boy pursed his lips tightly, knowing that the eldest prince was angry, otherwise he would not have let him finish his words.

On the street, Qin Miaoxi kept her head down, deep in thought, and remained silent. Lu Shiya glanced at her for a few times and couldn't help but ask softly, "Is there something wrong with the Third Princess?"

"She killed the maid."

Lu Shiya's eyelids twitched, and she said angrily with a tight mouth, "It really is her."

"How did you tell that? She didn't say anything."

"When people answer questions, their expressions will change slightly. That reflects their true thoughts and the truth."

Qin Miaoxi said slowly, "Just now, when I said she killed someone, her first reaction was panic, and then anger and threats. She even threw the question back at me because she felt guilty. She was the one who killed the person."

"But even if you know she did it, there's nothing you can do. You can't ask the princess to apologize to three maids!"

"Is there any evidence?"

Lu Shiya obviously didn't want to let her off so easily. The verbal conflict was fine, but now that she had stretched her claws into her house and was doing whatever she wanted, don't blame her for being rude.

"The evidence should be with her housekeeper."

Lu Shiya curled up her lips into a sarcastic smile, "If the Third Lady can't do it, let her lackeys pay it back."

After walking most of the way, he turned around and found that Qin Miaoxi was walking behind him with her head down, and she bumped into people several times.

"careful!"

Grabbing the person who was about to crash into the stall, Lu Shiya was puzzled and asked, "Now that you know it's her, what are you still thinking about?"

"I don't know if she was the one who murdered the girl."

Lu Shiya was slightly surprised. "You suspect her?"

Probably not?

"She had no grudge against those girls, so why did she kill them?"

"But she doesn't get along with you, so it's possible that she framed you. Don't forget that you are still under observation by the Ministry of Justice and have not been completely cleared of suspicion."

She looked at Lu Shiya steadily and said, "Anything is possible. We should make bold assumptions during the investigation."

Lu Shiya was silent for a long time, then cursed in frustration.

"I don't know what's wrong with the Third Princess. I've never offended her, but she's always targeting me."

"You haven't messed with her yet!"

Lu Qingchen came from a distance and couldn't help but click his tongue when he heard her mumbling.
