"After Tong Que left, Rong Lu continued to speculate based on Chu Ci's idea: 'If it's as you guessed, then this matter may not be just a simple case of official and merchant corruption. If they really make a big deal out of it, I'm afraid the entire Qin Zhao will be affected...'"
Chu Ci nodded and said, "The reason I think so is not just because the person who poisoned you is a member of an alien tribe. You didn't even understand what happened in Qingzhou when you went to handle other cases before. Although the Qingzhou case has temporarily come to an end, the White Tiger Token is still nowhere to be found. Most importantly, the people involved in the Qingzhou case were from the Wu Gui tribe, but from start to finish, no one from the Wu Gui tribe ever appeared. So, I have a hunch that the Wu Gui tribespeople who participated in the Qingzhou case didn't just leave like that."
Rong Lian raised an eyebrow slightly in surprise: "You mean that these two cases are from the same mastermind?"
Chu Xijin said: "Temporarily, it is not ruled out that there is this possibility."
"Whether or not, once Qi Gui brings back the historical records, it will be clear." Rong Yu said, and then paused for a moment, recalling the conversation between Chu Ci and Qi Gui not long ago...
She thought for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask: "Chu Ci, maybe I shouldn't be asking this...but I still find it a bit strange. I remember before I went out to handle the case, I would often hear that you and the Crown Prince would quarrel from time to time. But yesterday when I met Cheng Qi, he said that you and the Crown Prince are now getting along incredibly well, and I didn't quite believe him. However, after hearing your conversation with Cheng Qi just now...are you two really reconciled?"
Chu Ci raised her finger and touched the corner of her eye, with a hint of shyness like a little girl, pursed her lips and smiled, nodding slightly.
Although His Highness the Crown Prince is a bit perverted, it doesn't affect her bickering with him.
Rong Xiao saw Chu Ci's innocent and simple appearance, which was completely different from the rational and intelligent Chu Ci he had just seen. Rong Xiao himself felt slightly surprised...
At that time, in the Crown Prince's palace.
Suddenly, a report came from outside the palace, saying that someone from the Shi department had come to request an audience.
Emperor Di was calm and collected while handling government affairs, not immediately letting people in. Instead, he asked what the matter was. After a moment, Chen Lan came over to say it was related to the Crown Princess. Emperor Di temporarily put down the memorials he had been reviewing and let them enter.
The people from the History Department had already paid their respects and bowed before speaking up about the main matter: "Your Highness, it's like this. The official in charge of the Ming government, Mr. Cheng Qi, suddenly came to our department to examine historical records from a hundred years ago. When I asked him, he said that the Crown Princess had received your instructions to have him come over. So, I took the liberty of coming to ask Your Highness if this is true..."
"Indeed, it is My intention."
That person was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, Emperor Xuan added in a light tone, "From now on, what the Crown Princess says will be my intention."
When the people in the history department heard that the Crown Prince had already taken a liking to the Crown Princess, they didn't dare say anything more and quickly nodded in agreement. They then hurriedly went back to have someone help Cheng Qi search for historical books, lest the people on the other side wait anxiously and the Crown Prince blame them later, which would be disastrous.
Who let Ming Yingsi have a prince now as his backing...
No, who made the Ming government have an unprovokable crown princess now?
