When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!
Chapter 31: Investigation by the Ministry of Justice
The night faded away, the morning light began to shine, and the morning sun began to appear.
Xu Xinyue got up early and packed everything.
I also carefully disguised myself today.
She lightly applied a special turmeric powder to darken her complexion.
He drew thick eyebrows, pulled down the corners of his eyes, and pasted a black mole on his chin.
Soon, a thin boy with ordinary appearance appeared in front of the mirror.
Xiao Chan and Xiao Shu knew that their mistress could change her appearance, so they were used to seeing any of her looks.
Xiao Shu was packing her disguise items while Xiao Chan was tidying up her clothes.
Xu Xianyue warned: "When I'm not here, don't leave Prince Rong's mansion. If anyone else comes to visit Prince Rong's mansion, remember to avoid them.
Don’t let anyone see it.”
The two maids responded obediently.
Looking at the two people who were so obedient and sensible, Xu Xinyue pinched their cheeks and said, "Be good and wait for me to come back. I will bring you some jujube paste cakes."
"Ok!"
There was a knock on the door, and it was time to get ready to leave.
Xu Xinyue said no more and went to the front hall to look for Qin Yuechuan.
At this time, Qin Yuechuan was flipping through the account book of the palace sent by Zhang Bo. Qingyang was accompanying him.
Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, I looked up and saw a thin young man coming into my sight.
Qin Yuechuan was a little surprised that she knew all these unconventional things and seemed to be quite proficient in them.
When Qingyang saw the person coming, he looked her up and down in surprise and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Miss Xu...?"
Xu Xianyue nodded and lowered her voice to pretend to be a man: "It's Qingxian."
Qing Yang heard this, smiled and nodded in response: "Yes, Qing Xian."
Qin Yuechuan didn't express much, just nodded and walked out.
Xu Xinyue and Qingyang followed closely behind.
After getting on the carriage, Xu Xinyue thought that since she was pretending to be his follower, his current identity was a servant, and it would be inappropriate to sit with him.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Xinyue smiled at Qingyang and sat with him on the shaft outside the carriage without any pretense.
Qingyang looked behind him through the curtain, feeling uneasy and thinking something was wrong: "Miss Xu, this..."
Xu Xianyue put her finger to her lips and gestured to keep quiet: "Keep your voice down. I am Qingxian now. How can I ride in the same carriage with my master as the prince's follower?"
"This..." Qingyang was a little embarrassed.
Having said that, you are not the master but a true follower.
While hesitating, a low voice came from behind the curtain: "Come in!"
"Miss Xu, the master wants you to come in."
Seeing this, Xu Xinyue had no choice but to obey and lifted the curtain to enter the carriage.
Qin Yuechuan looked at the "thin boy" in front of him and said calmly:
"If there are no one around, you are still Xu Xinyue. You don't need to be like Qingyang and the others. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Xu Xinyue responded obediently.
Qin Yuechuan looked at her and sighed helplessly.
Little sparrows that have just arrived are always cautious about the new environment.
"Since I have promised your father to take care of you, it is understandable that you receive some preferential treatment in Prince Rong's Mansion. You don't need to be restrained."
Ok?
Xu Xinyue keenly felt that Qin Yuechuan seemed to be comforting her.
Although she didn't know why, she felt very happy in her heart and replied with a smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Looking at such an obedient little sparrow, Qin Yuechuan wanted to touch her head again. His palms clenched and stretched imperceptibly several times, but he finally held back.
That would be quite abrupt.
After an unknown amount of time, Qingyang considerately parked the carriage at the corner of the alley not far from the Ministry of Justice.
Qin Yuechuan got off the carriage first.
Everyone in Prince Rong's mansion practices martial arts, so horse stools are not always available in carriages.
Qin Yuechuan turned around and naturally extended his hand to her. His eyes were calm and without any flirtatiousness, as if he was doing something very ordinary.
Xu Xinyue held onto his sleeve, supported his wrist, and used the force to get off the carriage.
The Minister of Justice Xue Yuan had been waiting at the door for a long time and stepped forward to greet him.
Following Xue Yuan's guidance, the group came to the warehouse where the seized "stolen goods" were kept.
The emperor attached great importance to this "opium" incident.
The cargo boxes containing opium were also properly kept.
It is the same now as it was when it was confiscated.
Even the rice, cotton and silk inside remained untouched.
"Minister Xue, can you allow me to investigate?"
"Your Majesty, you have been appointed by His Majesty to assist in this case. Of course, you can. Please——"
Qin Yuechuan and Xu Xinyue exchanged glances, and then Xu Xinyue no longer hesitated and began to observe the pile of boxes of goods carefully.
The teenager in prison once said that there was something wrong with the cargo box.
She had a rough idea in her mind.
The Xu family's cargo boxes all have their own unique logos. After checking one by one, it was found that there were indeed several cargo boxes. Both the surface and the inside were clean, no different from ordinary cargo boxes, and there were no logos.
There's just an extra baffle inside.
The total number of cargo boxes is consistent with the number reported for inspection.
But this still cannot be used as key evidence.
Or, find the lost and swapped cargo box of the Xu family.
Or prove that these unmarked cargo boxes were not intentional by the Xu family.
After a brief thought, Xu Xinyue ordered some people to open the lid, revealing the cloth bag filled with grain inside.
Xu Xinyue turned around and asked, "Master Xue, have you checked the rice to see if there is anything unusual?"
Xue Yuan was slightly stunned, not quite understanding what kind of abnormality she was talking about.
Still answering truthfully, "I just checked whether there was any 'opium' hidden in it, that's all. These rice grains all look like new rice this year, and there seems to be nothing unusual."
Afterwards, Xue Yuan ordered someone to bring an armchair and some refreshments for Qin Yuechuan to rest.
Qin Yuechuan looked at the little sparrow, touching it here and looking at it there.
Sometimes he would pick up the new rice on this side and smell it, sometimes he would pick up the rice grains on that side and taste them.
Want a taste?
Xue Yuan was a little nervous: "Your Highness Prince Rong, this is not appropriate. We don't know whether the rice is poisonous..."
After hearing what Xue Yuan said, Xu Xinyue straightened up and spoke word by word with certainty:
"The rice in my house is not poisonous."
Qin Yuechuan also nodded, and Xue Yuan said no more upon seeing this.
Anyway, he has already reminded him, so if anything really happens, it has nothing to do with him.
Xu Xinyue threw herself into it again, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
As Xue Yuan said, these are all new rice and are no different from ordinary rice.
She originally thought that perhaps the evil person who framed her father would use a mixture of old and new rice to get away with it. If they could find a trace of old rice or other debris, there might be room for the case to be turned around... But now...
Looking at the white rice grains exposed after all the lids were opened, Xu Xinyue felt a trace of despair in her heart:
Is there really no way out... Is it true that Daddy's injustice cannot be redressed...
She slumped in front of a cargo box as if exhausted, her head lowered, her fingers unconsciously fiddling with the rice in front of her, and she fell into confusion.
Qin Yuechuan has been paying attention to her every move.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
From the beginning, her mood seemed to be very wrong.
No longer interested in Xue Yuan's endless description of the case, he ignored it and walked towards her.
