The Crybaby Prince is Reborn, Where is the Prince Going?
Chapter 21 Werewolf Self-Destruction
"But then again, it's also possible that Madam Zhu is just crying wolf. Don't make hasty judgments about the true culprit until the very end. When handling a case, avoid letting your emotions get in the way. Everything should be based on evidence. This is my first lesson."
"Yes, Jinyou has learned his lesson."
"You are a teachable young man. You are much more interesting than that damned fellow He Qianzhao."
...How should he respond to this? Ji Zhonghuan, a chatterbox, is quite torturous.
"When you get there, just listen and watch. Have your two guards protect you."
"it is good."
After more than a quarter of an hour, the carriage finally stopped, and Jinyou finally got rid of the torment of fatigue.
Compared with the carriage of the Regent's Palace, Ji Zhonghuan's carriage was extremely simple. He sat in it for almost half an hour and was so tired that his back and waist ached. It was not until he got off the carriage that he felt alive again.
It is true that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to
As soon as he got off the car, Jinyou was shocked by the scene.
There were many white silks hanging on Zhu Yuanwai's mansion, and a large number of Jinyiwei were guarding outside the door. The whole house was surrounded, and there was an atmosphere of "keep away from strangers" everywhere.
As the two approached, a young man in a Feiyu suit hurriedly saluted Ji Zhonghuan and said, "Sir!"
"How's it going inside?"
"Lord Han and the coroner are examining the body, and the Second Prince's men have also arrived."
Ji Zhonghuan snorted coldly, "Some people are born to act. Well, let's go in and take a look."
Jin You followed Ji Zhong Huan, but he was the only one stopped by the young man: "No outsiders are allowed to enter. This is not a place for children. Let's go play somewhere else."
Jinyou held his forehead, feeling helpless. As expected, there were like subordinates for like bosses, and they were all stubborn.
"I am the prince of the Regent Palace. How about I work on the case with Master Ji? Or can't I enter?"
The young man quickly retracted his sword, a trace of embarrassment appearing on his face. He had never met the Prince of Regent before, and now that the Prince was here in person, no one would dare to intervene, let alone go in to investigate the case. Even if he asked to pull out the body and cut it into pieces, no one would dare to do anything!
So the young man quickly clasped his fists and apologized: "Sorry, Prince, please come in."
Jin You had just obtained the "permission", but when he looked up, Ji Zhonghuan was nowhere to be seen. The entire mansion was in chaos, and only the gate was relatively quiet.
Suddenly, Ah Que whispered in a low and alert voice, "Prince, there is a person over there."
Jinyou followed Aque's line of sight and saw a man sneaking out along the wall, looking very stealthy. No matter who he was, he didn't look like a good person.
"Bai Mo, there is an assassin, stop him."
Bai Mo received the order and rushed out instantly. Before the man could react, he was pushed against the wall by Bai Mo.
"Who are you? Let me go! I'm a guard from the Second Prince's Mansion! Let me go!"
The man in black struggled, but was pressed against the wall by Bai Mo and could only twist his body desperately, unable to help but transform into a stubborn fish.
"Hmm? The guards from the Second Prince's residence? Aren't they assassins? I thought I could get some credit for nothing just by going out for fun. Oh, it's not an assassin, what a shame."
The prince? The guards were frightened to death. How many princes were there in the entire capital? Apart from the eldest prince's consumptive prince, there was only the regent prince.
Judging from the powerful voice, this person is definitely not the eldest prince's son, so he can only be the regent's son!
It was so unlucky for the guard to meet someone from the Regent's Palace. He had only one thought in his mind: It's over!
He suddenly started shouting, "Your Highness, spare me! I am just begging for food. What do you mean by guard of the Second Prince's Palace? I am just a gatekeeper. The Second Prince only asked me to get something. I am not an assassin!"
"Get what?"
The man in black was thinking very quickly. If he didn't tell the truth, he would definitely die, but if he told the truth, there was a 50% chance of survival!
So he gritted his teeth and confessed to the Second Prince in his heart, "I'm sorry, Second Prince. I won't come here in the next life."
So he confessed everything without any hesitation, for fear of losing his life.
"The Second Prince asked me to retrieve a secret letter, but I didn't see any secret letter in the secret compartment. Didn't Lord Ji suddenly appear? I was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so I sneaked out over the wall."
I just didn't expect that instead of meeting Lord Ji face to face, I would meet someone who is more powerful and more difficult to deal with.
It’s not that He Jinyou himself is difficult to deal with, but the forces behind him are difficult.
The three words "Regent" are enough to scare everyone to death.
"So, you're not an assassin?"
"That's right, my lord. I'm really not an assassin."
"If he's not an assassin, then he's a thief. If you have anything to say, you should talk to Lord Ji." Jin You raised his chin, "Bai Mo, take this man to see Lord Ji. He's talking nonsense."
"Everything I said is true. I can't go to see Master Ji. I will die!"
"Put it down!"
The man in black was taken away howling like a wolf. Jinyou rubbed his head and felt a headache.
What is going on? I thought it was a simple case, but it ended up involving the Second Prince.
Just when I thought the Second Prince would not interfere, a man in black suddenly appeared and stole the secret letter.
What secret letter is so important that it must be stolen in public?
This is simply a werewolf self-destructing.
Anyone with a brain wouldn't do such a thing, right?
It really makes people wonder if there is something wrong with the Xiao family's ancestral tomb. There is a thief crying "stop thief" in front and then there is theft openly happening behind.
"Aque...don't wear black when you get back home."
"why?"
Jinyou looked back at her and asked, "Don't you think it's very obvious to wear black clothes during the day? Like the guy just now." What's the difference between wearing night clothes during the day and running naked in public?
"Oh, but I refuse."
They are all stubborn and won't listen no matter what you say. It's better not to waste your breath.
"Forget it, let's go find Master Ji. I don't know what's going on."
When the two arrived, they happened to see people from the Dali Temple arguing with Mrs. Zhu.
The cause of the dispute was that the people from the Dali Temple wanted to take away Mr. Zhu's body, but Mrs. Zhu disagreed.
"Do you know that your actions are affecting the investigation? Once the case is solved, the body will be returned to Mr. Zhu for burial. What can you gain by keeping it in the mansion? What if the body is destroyed one day and all the evidence is gone? Don't you want to find Mr. Zhu's murderer? Or are you the murderer? Are you afraid of finding some evidence?"
"It's not that I didn't do it! How can you say such nonsense? Don't think you can slander me just because you're an official appointed by the court! I'm just a woman and I wouldn't do such a thing as murdering my husband. I'm afraid it must be some seductive vixen who is good at doing such a thing!"
The vixen who was being slandered wore a plain dress and cried in the mourning hall with tears streaming down her face, her tears were filled with true emotion.
"Madam, your words truly chill my heart. Although I haven't been with Master for as long as you, my love for him is evident to all. Now that Master has passed away, I wish I could just bang my head against his wall and die, just like him."
"Then you should just crash into the car and die right now! Otherwise I'll have to send someone to put you in a pig cage! It'll be less of a worry if you're dead!"
Zhao Zhener's breathing stagnated. It was just a formality and polite words. It would definitely not be possible to really kill someone.
"Madam, what are you talking about? I'm pregnant with your child. He's your own flesh and blood!"
"Flesh and blood? Who knows if they are?"
The woman's crying was so noisy that it gave people a headache. Lord Han pinched his brows and in just a moment he felt that his whole spirit was not in good condition.
Apparently, Lord Han couldn't stand the quarrel between the two women.
"Alright, everyone, cut the chatter and stop arguing. The dead can't be brought back to life, and even if you argue like crazy, he won't come back. Why don't you all just talk about what happened over the past two days? It might even help with the case."
Mrs. Zhu saw Zhao Zhen'er was about to speak, and hurriedly said, "Let me speak first! The master has been in the little vixen's courtyard every day these days. Only the little vixen knows what he eats and drinks. As a result, this morning, the master fell at the gate as soon as he left the house, and then... the master... passed away... wuwuwu..."
