His Royal Highness the prince is cute

Chapter 178 Follow my brother to investigate the case (11)

After Mu Jingxuan ordered the officers and soldiers to drag Chen Wu away, he quickly returned to Yun Xi's side.

Yun Xi was about to ask what he was doing just now, but was cut off before she could.
"Stay here and wait for me, I'll be out soon."

Yun Xi opened her mouth, wanting to refuse, but looking into her brother's serious eyes, she knew that he had business to do, so she closed her mouth again and nodded.

"Good boy." Mu Jingxuan turned around and walked towards the direction where the officers and soldiers were leaving with his slender fingers stroking lightly across his black temples.

He wants to interrogate that Chen Wu himself?
Watching the back of her brother leaving, Yun Xi's clear eyes flashed doubts, obviously, her brother would not ask so many questions before... Forget it, let's wait for him to come back and ask.

Yun Xi shook her head, shaking her mind full of doubts. Speaking of which, she was even more curious now, where did Guard Ruan go?Why hasn't it appeared after such a long time, it's better not to have something happened.

Just as Yun Xi was looking around for someone, a slightly flattering and obscene male voice suddenly came from behind:
"Miss, what are you looking for, do you need help from the lower officials?"

"Yeah~"

Suddenly a voice came from behind, Yun Xi was startled, and turned around to meet a familiar face—prefect Chen Sheng came out.

Yun Xi shook her head, indicating that there was no need.

"Then, miss, can you tell me where the young master has gone? I have something to report."

Chen Sheng looked around, but couldn't find the one he was looking for, so he turned his gaze back to the girl in front of him.

But this time he behaved himself, bent over and lowered his head, his eyes didn't look at her at all, he was so obedient.

"He's going...you look behind you."

The words that came out of his mouth suddenly turned a corner in the middle of the road. Chen Sheng heard the words and looked back, and he saw a slender young man walking slowly towards him.

"What did you find?"

Mu Jingxuan's cold eyes only stayed on Chen Sheng's body for a moment, and soon he had walked to Yun Xi's side again, allowing the girl to reach out and hug her arm without pushing her away.

"According to Wu's preliminary inspection, Lord Shangguan died suddenly. The body and the entire room were checked, and no trace of poisoning was found. The body will be transported back to the government office later for a detailed inspection."

Chen Sheng's words didn't make Mu Jingxuan react too much, what he said was not far from what he saw before, and now there are some other doubts that make him more concerned.

But he didn't plan to tell others until he found out.

Chen Sheng saw that the crown prince was frowning and seemed to be thinking about something, so he didn't bother him, but his eyes were attracted by the young woman kneeling on the ground crying, and he was surprised for a while, so he asked:
"Who is this woman?"

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers at the side came over and told him what happened just now. Chen Sheng frowned more and more when he heard it.

"Where is the poison, can you find it?"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Chen Sheng paused. He himself had just come out of the room.

Yun Xi was standing next to the magistrate. Although the words of the officers and soldiers were not loud, she could hear pretty well, so she listened to them verbatim.

But she couldn't believe it, how could this happen?obviously...

At this moment, another person came in at the door. It was an officer and soldier with a knife. It seemed that he was brought by Chen Sheng.

He looked up, then hurriedly walked towards this side, and finally knelt down in front of Chen Sheng to salute:

"Report to my lord, what is that powder has been found out."
