After marrying the vegetative prince, the doctor concubine killed people randomly

Chapter 610: The Vengeful Prince

"There were no useful clues left at the scene except for a few bloody footprints. The investigation of this case is much more difficult than I thought."

Ji Yuntang heard this and asked: "What happened next?"

Xu Muyan said: "I wanted to report this to the emperor and ask him to send someone to investigate with me, but who would have thought that many ministers would suddenly write a letter together, asking the emperor to order the case to be quickly closed."

"I didn't understand the reason at the time, but my father-in-law told me that many industries in the capital were opened by these ministers. Now the young ladies of the capital's noble families don't leave their homes, and the people don't go out to buy things, so they can't do business."

"So, these people wrote to the emperor, saying that this case has seriously affected the situation in the capital and made everyone panic. They asked the emperor to put pressure on the Dali Temple and let the officials settle this case as soon as possible and let the capital return to its original state."

Xu Muyan gritted his teeth and said, "But the murderer has not been found yet. How can I close the case? The bodies of the Zhang family are still lying there coldly, without even their eyes closed. How can I close this case?"

"I don't want to close the case, but the emperor has repeatedly sent people to tell me to close the case as soon as possible. He gave me three days and said that if I can't close the case within three days, I will lose my position as the Junior Official of the Dali Temple."

"Later, it was my father-in-law who went to the emperor to plead for mercy, and the emperor personally sent someone to settle the case."

"However, the way they closed the case was very crude and simple. They just found a reason for a murder of passion, saying that Zhang Laojiu's wife, Yang, was having an affair outside and the man's wife found out, so the adulterer's wife hired someone to kill him."

"Then, they randomly arrested two criminals, a man and a woman, from the prison, framed them with a crime, and executed them at noon the next day."

"This case was just concluded in such a muddled way. I have the will but not the power to do anything about it."

Ji Yuntang listened carefully and could still hear the self-blame in Xu Muyan's voice.

She pursed her lips and said, "Xu Shaoqing, you have done your best in this case. It has nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself too much."

Ji Yuntang had long known about the corruption within Dongchen, but he had no idea they were so corrupt.

Because the people in power are blind to the hardships of ordinary people's lives and only care about their own interests, many unjust, false and wrongful cases have occurred.

Xu Muyan's personal ability is still good, otherwise Ji Huaiche would have squeezed him out of the position of Shaoqing long ago.

The reason why he can still sit there steadily must be related to his own performance.

While Ji Yuntang was drinking tea, Xu Muyan went to get the file and opened the case for Ji Yuntang to see.

After Ji Yuntang took a quick look, he found that the cause of the case written above was indeed a murder of passion.

It was pitiful enough that Zhang Laojiu's wife was murdered, and he was also inexplicably accused of having an affair. Ji Yuntang felt speechless.

She was very disappointed with the laws of Dongchen Kingdom and the entire court.

This case seems to be closed, but in fact it is not closed at all.

Just like the murderer of Doctor Zhu, it remains an unsolved case to this day.

Ji Yuntang knew that he had come to the Dali Temple today but had not gained anything useful.

After she thanked Xu Muyan, she stood up and prepared to leave.

Just then, there was a sudden noisy sound outside.

When Ji Yuntang opened the door, he heard the guards shouting.

"Oh no! Someone come quickly! Prince Ji broke his leg."

Ji Yuntang was stunned, and saw four guards hurriedly carrying Ji Huaiche and walking into the room.

Ji Huaiche hugged his legs and screamed in pain.

"Quick, go and get a doctor for this prince."

Xu Muyan looked at the ground. It didn't rain today and the ground was very dry. He couldn't understand how Ji Huaiche broke his leg on such a dry and flat ground.

He asked Ji Yuntang, "Princess Ye, do you know how a person can walk without breaking a leg on a ground like this?"

He could understand falling down, but he couldn't understand breaking a leg.

Ji Yuntang touched the tip of her nose, her intuition told her that this matter might be related to Luo Junhe.

Just now when she was in the carriage, she could feel the low pressure coming from Luo Junhe.

Unfortunately, Ji Huaiche not only did not leave, but also kept moving closer to her, rushing to his death.

Given how petty that man is, how could he let Ji Huaiche go so easily?

It was his own bad luck to have offended Luo Junhe.

Although he thought so in his heart, Ji Yuntang said to Xu Muyan: "Maybe he is too arrogant and only looks at the sky when he walks, not the road!"

Xu Muyan: "..."

For a moment, he actually felt that what Ji Yuntang said made a lot of sense.

Isn’t Ji Huaiche a person who is very arrogant?

Xu Muyan opened his lips slightly and said softly: "It seems that we should be down-to-earth in life, so that we can walk more steadily."

Ji Yuntang nodded in agreement, "Xu Shaoqing is right. People who are too arrogant are doomed to have a bad ending."

Xu Muyan escorted Ji Yuntang out of the Dali Temple. He watched Ji Yuntang get on the carriage of Prince Ye's Mansion.

Little did she know that as soon as Ji Yuntang stepped into the carriage, a hand reached out and pulled her over.

Ji Yuntang was caught off guard and fell into Luo Junhe's arms, being hugged tightly by him.

"Atang, I miss you."

His warm breath sprayed against her ears, and Ji Yuntang couldn't help but shudder. She looked at Luo Junhe.

"I've only been gone for an incense stick of time, and you're already missing me?"

Luo Junhe looked at her with his deep peach blossom eyes, and said with thin lips: "This king misses you, regardless of time."

"I can't see you anymore, so I start thinking about you."

Ji Yuntang: "..."

For the first time, she discovered that someone as cold as Luo Junhe could actually have such a clingy side.

But isn't this also a way for him to express his love?

This man has never been loved by anyone!

Thinking of this, Ji Yuntang couldn't help but feel a little more distressed for him.

She reached out her hands, gently hugged Luo Junhe, and leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Ahe, I will always be with you in the future. No matter what happens, I will never leave you."

These words gave Luo Junhe enough sense of security, and he hugged Ji Yuntang tightly.

"Okay, we'll never separate."

"I also promised Atang that no matter what the future holds, I will protect you and will not let you suffer any harm."

The carriage was silent, and Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe both enjoyed each other's company.
