Chapter 43: Prince Jing breaks into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion at night
"What happened?" Han Wenyuan stood up from his chair and his expression became serious.

All of his men were well-trained, and they would never have panicked like this unless something serious had happened.

The one who came to report the news was a short yamen runner, with a look of shock still on his face. "Sir, there was a murder in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. More than 20 assassins sneaked into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, but they were all killed by Master Mo Chen and the guards in the mansion."

The guard only noticed Lu Qingyu was there at this moment, and his expression visibly shrank. "And Master Mo Chen was poisoned and is now in a coma."

Han Wenyuan glanced at Lu Qingyu and saw that she looked normal, and her tense nerves relaxed a little.

He waved his hand, "I know, go down."

The yamen runner hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to ask, "Sir, what should I do?"

Han Wenyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Just handle the case as you should. Do you need me to teach you?"

The bailiff shrank his neck, nodded repeatedly, then left the room and closed the door.

Han Wenyuan then looked at Lu Qingyu who was sitting and drinking tea. The girl still looked calm.

"Ms. Lu, what do you think about this matter?"

Lu Qingyu spread his hands and said, "Master Han, my current identity is a prisoner in Jingzhao Prefecture. As for the murder case in Zhenguo Mansion, I only ask Master Han to follow the rules."

Han Wenyuan thought about it for a moment and basically understood what Lu Qingyu meant.

Miss Lu wants to completely distance herself from this matter.

Asking himself to follow the rules means that the investigation should be carried out according to the normal process, and the result will probably be within Lu Qingyu's plan.

This is easy to handle.

Lu Qingyu finished the tea in the cup and stood up. "Master Han, I won't delay your investigation. Please find someone to show me the way to the cell where I should be imprisoned."

Han Wenyuan actually admired Lu Qingyu's decisiveness. Most of the noble children had no awareness and courage to get involved, let alone go to jail on their own initiative.

Although it's just a sleight of hand, having been in jail is still damaging to one's reputation.

At this time, the originator of the sleight of hand was sitting in Doctor Ming's room and handed over a packet of medicine powder.

"Ming Lao, someone will come to pick you up to detoxify someone in a while. Just use this packet of medicine powder when you get there."

Ming Shigan took the medicine powder and didn't ask why. He just hesitated whether to mention the prescription.

"Mr. Ming, if you have anything to say, feel free to say it." He Junxuan could see that Ming Shigan was hesitant to speak.

"Actually, I learned a prescription yesterday that is very effective against your poison, but it's missing one ingredient."

"Phoenix fruit?"

Ming Shiqian was slightly stunned, "Your Highness knows?"

He Junxuan took out a small porcelain bottle and a prescription from his arms and handed them over. "Ming Lao, can you help me see if this medicine is suitable for my condition?"

Ming Shiqian first took the porcelain bottle and smelled it carefully, then took a look at the prescription and understood it instantly.

This is Yu girl’s prescription.

It turns out that Yu Yatou’s very important friend is really He Junxuan.

"It's completely suitable for the symptoms, but the effect doesn't seem to be complete." Ming Shiqian frowned slightly. He had a keen sense of smell and could sense that the purity of the liquid in the bottle was not high enough. He Junxuan smiled and said, "Yes, this is the antidote for only half a phoenix fruit."

Seeing that He Junxuan had no intention of continuing, Ming Shigan was tactful enough not to ask any further questions.

Not long after He Junxuan left, Ming Shigan received an invitation from Jingzhao Prefecture, and only then did he know that Mo Chen, the adopted son of the Duke of Zhenguo, had been poisoned.

After symbolically taking Mo Chen's pulse, Ming Shigan took out the medicine powder given to him by He Junxuan from his medical box.

The antidote took effect quickly and Mo Chen woke up soon.

"Mr. Mo, are you awake? I am Han Wenyuan, the Shao Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, and I am responsible for supervising and trying the case of the assassins who broke into the Zhenguo Mansion at night."

After opening his eyes and taking a break, Mo Chen struggled to take out a milky white jade pendant from his arms, on which was engraved a vigorous and powerful word "Jing".

Han Wenyuan's pupils shrank sharply. Isn't this King Jing's personal jade pendant?
How could it be in Mo Chen's hands?
"It was King Jing. He sneaked in with his men and set a fire. This jade pendant fell from him."

Mo Chen directly named the murderer without any dodging or hesitation.

Although he didn't know why his second sister had such a deep hatred for King Jing, this was the task his second sister had assigned to him, and he had to do it perfectly.

The fear and anger on Mo Chen's face were just right, so good that it even made Han Wenyuan suspicious. Could it be that Prince Jing really broke into the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion at night?
After all, there are both witnesses and material evidence.

But it would be too illogical to tell anyone that Prince Jing broke into the Duke Zhenguo's mansion at night.

"Mr. Mo, where are King Jing's people?" Han Wenyuan asked.

Mo Chen lowered his head in pain, "I am just a commoner, how dare I attack the prince? I can only let him go."

Han Wenyuan fell into silence. If this matter involved the prince, it would not be something that he, a Shao Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, could decide.

Although according to Tiansheng laws, if a prince breaks the law, he will be punished the same as a commoner.

But this law is just a gimmick, just to appease the people. The only one who can really convict the prince is His Majesty.

"Mr. Mo, this matter involves the prince and more than 20 lives, and I cannot make the decision. How about this, my father will personally bring you to see His Majesty at the morning court tomorrow."

Still not at ease after saying that, Han Wenyuan reminded him again, "This jade pendant must be protected well. It is a very important piece of evidence."

Mo Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Everything was developing as his second sister expected.

But he was still a little confused. How did his second sister foresee the arrival of assassins? Who were those two masked men with great martial arts skills and who killed so many people?
Although they hadn't seen each other for only a few days, Mo Chen felt that his second sister suddenly had many more secrets.

But it doesn’t seem to be a bad thing. At least the second sister finally got rid of King Jing.

At that time, my adoptive father and mother tried to stop her in every way, but they couldn't stop my second sister from being determined to marry King Jing.

Mo Chen also didn't like King Jing. He felt that King Jing was like wearing a mask every day. On the surface, he looked gentle and elegant, but his eyes were turbid, hiding ambition and greed that could devour human nature.

Moreover, his man's intuition told him that King Jing did not really like his second sister.

True love is shy, just like my feelings towards Qinghan.

Thinking of that dashing and capable woman, Mo Chen's eyes unconsciously softened and his heart seemed to beat faster.

The next day, the streets and alleys of the entire Kyoto city were filled with gossip: Prince Jing broke into the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion at night!
At the same time, the news that Lu Qingyu was taken away by Jingzhao Prefecture for interrogation also spread throughout the upper class circle.
