The imperial guards' leader smiled and said, “Don’t mention it since you’re one of us.”The guard came back about 15 minutes later after he checked. Then he leaned against the leader’s ear and whispered a few words.Xiaowu walked up in front of the leader anxiously and frowned as he asked, “What happened, my friend? When can His Highness come out?”The leader pondered before taking Xiaowu to a corner. “My friend, say something! Did something happened to His Highness?” asked Xiaowu anxiously as he grabbed the arm of the imperial guards’ leader. The imperial guards’ leader pulled Xiaowu’s arm off and said, “His Majesty hasn’t summoned Prince Jing into the hall, so Prince Jing is still standing outside Linde Hall. “What?” asked Xiaowu as his mind went blank. Xiaowu didn’t utter a word after talking to the guard, so Mu Bai furrowed his brows and asked, “Did you find out when His Highness is

Shortly after Chu Yunshen entered the justice department, people came over and paid respects to him, “Your Highness!”“Your Highness, these six people are in charge of punishment and take care of all other generic matters throughout the department,” Di Yangze introduced the six people standing in the first row. Then he turned to point at the two people standing on the side, “These two are in charge of reviewing and managing tricky local cases. Those six men behind are in charge of going on location to try tough cases and uphold justice as our agents. Chu Yunshen turned to look at the people as the supervisor explained their duties. Cheng Xiaoxiao reached her neck out of Chu Yunshen’s arms and looked around with curiosity. After listening for so long, she roughly realized that the justice department here worked just like a yamen from the ancient times of where she came from. “Your Highness, this is the secretary of the justice de

Chu Yunshen looked at her hand. Chu Mengqian wasn’t exaggerating, and there was truly a few bloody scratches on her hand. That uncle of his always over-indulged Mengqian since young, so she always had her way, and she never suffered such injustice. She was usually just a little stubborn, but she never meant harm. This cat truly stirred quite the trouble today!“Send for the doctor!” said Chu Yunshen immediately as he held her hand up for a look. “Yes, Master!”A servantly immediately brought a physician over to bandage Chu Mengqian’s wounds. “Yunshen!” said Chu Mengqian as she sat in Chu Yunshen’s room. Chu Yunshen sat there drinking tea without saying a word about how he would handle the cat that hurt her. Then she frowned hard as she said, “What are you going to do about that little fellow?”“I will punish her,” said Chu Yunshen calmly as he sipped tea. “That cat is so dis

Chu Yunshen turned to glance at Xiaowu. He immediately walked over to help Gu Ruoshan. Then Xiaowu pointed behind him as he said, “Sir Gu, this is His Highness’s coroner. He needs to perform an autopsy for Miss Gu’s remains. Can you please bring him to her body?”Xiaowu couldn’t bring himself to say that her only remains were her head. Instead, Xiaowu deliberately referred to it as her body. Even then, Gu Ruoshan’s face turned pale the moment he heard him. When Gu Ruoshan recalled how cruelly his daughter died, and all that remained was her bloody head, he went, “PFFFT!” He was so sad that he suddenly coughed blood. His head was giddy, and it felt as though he could see his daughter waving at him.“Sir Gu?” asked Xiaowu as he helped to support Gu Ruoshan while he fell backward. The servants standing beside them rushed over to help too. They held Gu Ruoshan up and shouted anxiously, “Sir!”“Master!” cried Gu Ruoshan’s wife and mother of Gu Bixua

Gu Bixuan stood at the Gu residence’s gateway as she watched Prince Jing get onto his black horse outside the residence. She lamented as she gazed at Prince Jing, disappearing into the distance. Once upon a time, she had a crush on Prince Jing but knew she wasn’t good enough for him.Now that Prince Jing was right before her, they were forever separated by death. “Laifu, let’s go in.” Gu Bixuan watched as Laifu helped Gu Ruoshan up. Then she floated to the other side to help support him by the arm. Gu Ruoshan sensed a cold wind sweeping past him. Then he couldn’t help shuddering as he said, “Laifu, burn more joss paper for Xuan’er later.”“Yes, Master,” said Laifu as he nodded. The moment Gu Bixuan got up the steps in front of the doorway, a conversation emerged in her mind.“Sir, I promise that the moment Prince Jing comes in, he’ll die without a doubt! Sir, te
