Chapter 21
Ye Li's attitude made Zhong Changtong a little embarrassed and at a loss when he saw this. He raised his eyes to look at the prince beside him, but he still looked calm, leisurely and indifferent.

The corners of Zhong Changtong's mouth twitched a few times. He thought of the way the eunuch read out the decree when the emperor appointed him, and how he cared for the eldest lady of the country. worried.

Although it is obvious that in this situation, it is not up to him to say anything as a handyman, but thinking that his official career has long since reached the point where he has no official to demote.If you continue to offend someone, you will come again at most for more than ten years and stay in place as a fifth-rank sesame official, guarding this Jingzhaoyin mansion, retiring and returning home to farm.But if something happened to Mrs. Ye in his hands, looking at the emperor's attitude, I'm afraid she will go to be buried with her, let alone where she will be an official.

"His Royal Highness, we have been tracking this murderer for many years. He is vicious, thoughtful, and ruthless. Isn't it a little unsafe for Miss Ye to go to her daughter's house alone? Do you want me to send some people to follow secretly and protect him at any time?" To prevent unexpected accidents?"

Fu Mingxuan shook his fan, the old god looked at Ye Li's direction, and finally sighed. "No, as the saying goes, auspicious people have their own celestial features. Lord Zhong can also rest assured that the Jingzhaoyin Mansion has always been complicated with trivial matters. You can go to work first! Miss Ye, I will follow in person. If something happens, the emperor asks The blame will only come to me."

After finishing speaking, she closed the fan and went straight out, walking towards the direction Ye Li left.

The concept of the prosperity of the capital, because it was already evening when she came out several times before, Ye Li didn't have a clear understanding until this time.Especially in this period of time when all nations came to court, it really complied with the saying that the nine heavens will open the palace, and all nations will wear their clothes and worship their crowns.

Standing on the street, Ye Li felt a little strange.

On the one hand, she laments the wisdom of the common people in this era, and on the other hand, it is her current distress.

"Where should I start?" Ye Li muttered to herself.

"According to Zhong Changtong, this case has many similarities with 15 years ago, and it happened when Dayan's state came to Beijing to worship. In addition, the multiple assassinations were just to take people's lives. , not greedy for money. So their current thinking is the private grievances of the royal palace nobles of these countries, because it is difficult to deal with them, so they came to Dayan."

Ye Li came to the scene of the latest case while thinking.

This was already a week ago, counting the days, it was the time when she entered the palace to meet the emperor.Now that I think about it carefully, even though the emperor was still gentle towards her when he entered the palace, he could still vaguely see the upset in him.

It is also reasonable that a case came back again 15 years ago, and it happened to happen in the imperial city at the foot of the emperor.This is not just a simple contempt for Dayan's imperial prestige, even judging from the murderer's current course of action, he is only for personal grievances.

But such a person, who can come and go freely in the imperial city, murders people without anyone noticing, what if one day he wants to attack the imperial palace?

This case happened in Wujing Pavilion, the largest restaurant in the capital. After Ye Li went in, she found that the restaurant was in good condition, and only then did she know that someone had suppressed the news.It was also because of this reason that when Ye Li just inquired, she was targeted by the guards of the Ministry of Punishment who were secretly observing.

Ye Li was speechless, and her whole life was handcuffed by these people to the upstairs room.

She understood it, she had completely figured it out.The Jingzhaoyin Mansion and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs jointly arrested people, but because this country came to the court at the same time, their actions were extremely embarrassing.One is to stabilize the hearts of the people, and the other is to show the confidence of a big country, which leads to restrictions on actions everywhere.

But in this case, the higher-ups issued a death order, so you can't ignore it?

So it became the absurd situation now, sending people to watch everywhere every day, and once they found out that they were inquiring about the news, they would be detained and dealt with immediately.

Even after entering the room, Ye Li immediately took out the Yefu jade pendant that Zhuohua insisted on carrying when she went out, but after the inspection, the group of people only allowed her to move freely, still not at ease.

Ye Li slandered endlessly in her heart, working so hard and earnestly every day, but that's it?No wonder you couldn't catch the murderer!

After suffering in the room for an unknown amount of time, Ye Li finally got the straw to save her life. She didn't bother to raise her eyes and knew it must be Fu Mingxuan.

"This is indeed the eldest lady of the Ye family, you go out first, and continue to monitor carefully at your own posts."

"Yes!"

Seeing the group of people, Ye Li didn't even intend to give an apology. After answering Fu Mingxuan respectfully, she immediately returned to her original place.

"It's really conscientious, but it's a pity that you only do useless work. What's the use of working for nothing?"

She curled her lips and said.

"You're right, but you don't know that this is already the most hardworking and capable group in this department. I, Dayan, have always been kind to literati, and I am also very careful in selecting talents, but I am too lenient, resulting in uneven quality of officials. There are too many people. The situation of redundant officials has become a major problem in the court, but now they are unable to solve it."

Ye Li didn't expect that Fu Mingxuan would talk to her about this at all. This was a major court event, and she couldn't help but think of the things Fu Mingxuan sent someone yesterday.

"But that's not the case. If they work hard here for more than ten years, even if they don't stop around the clock, this case will at most become an unsolved case that won't be solved for 30 years!"

Fu Mingxuan nodded, and said in a very sincere tone, "Yeah, so why don't I come to ask Miss Ye? Miss Ye has been a strange flower that the whole capital avoided, and now she has become the number one person in the capital with both civil and military skills." Celebrities. I believe that you are the only one who can solve this case, and you will surely surprise me."

Ye Li, who picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, almost spit out water after hearing what Fu Mingxuan said, with goosebumps all over her body, "Okay, don't be hypocritical, the prince, it's better to handle the case early. Don't be careless , It’s a shame to leave a blank and go back when I go out myself.”

After speaking, he picked up the jade pendant on the table, turned around and left the room.

Fu Mingxuan shook his fan and laughed silently, but his curiosity about Ye Li was getting deeper and deeper.

In the restaurant.Because Ye and Li came to investigate with their identities hidden, the shopkeeper looked impatient, "I said, sir, you have asked me so many times about this case, you don't bother me, do you? Besides, I really don't understand it, it didn't hurt the innocent, and it might even punish the evil and promote the good, why are you all staring at it so hard?"
