After a house full of cannon fodder read my voice, the whole family went crazy.

After dreaming endlessly all night, Qiao Wanshu not only did not feel relaxed when she woke up, but her mind was muddy and her body felt very heavy.

She was woken up.

It was already the appointed time, and the Ninth Prince came to pick him up.

"Mom, why are you late?"

Qiao Wanshu rubbed her eyes, still feeling a little groggy.

She wondered why no one had come to wake her up earlier.

"Shu'er, I'm afraid you were too tired yesterday, but you didn't sleep well at night. Mom was reluctant, so she let you sleep a little longer."

Mrs. Chen is also very reluctant to give up now, but she just endures it and does not regret it.

Qiao Wanshu scratched her head and suddenly threw herself into Chen's arms.

"Mom, I can't bear to leave you, but I still want to help Fourth Brother and everyone."

She also wants to enjoy it comfortably at home.

But in the case of the prince's assassination, it was obvious that the Dog Emperor had hurriedly closed the case in order to exonerate the Ninth Prince.

For the Qiao family, it is a hidden danger that can be detonated at any time.

So as long as there is a chance to thoroughly investigate this case, she must follow it to the end.

There were faint tears in Chen's eyes.

She clearly felt that her daughter cared about the entire Qiao family, and it was hard not to be moved by this feeling.

After holding Qiao Wanshu tightly in her arms and kissing her again and again, Ms. Chen personally washed and dressed her up. She originally wanted to assign her personal maid to take care of her daughter, but she saw General Chen leaving with an eleven or twelve-year-old girl. Come over.

"Little Shu'er, my grandpa gave this to you. Her name is Sang Zhi. She has been specially trained and has good skills. From now on, she will stay with you and protect her."

Qiao Wanshu looked at the girl curiously.

She looks very beautiful and fresh, with a heroic spirit between her eyebrows.

The posture is upright and the movements are neat.

At first glance, it seems that he has a strong and independent character and is a person who can hold things together.

She clapped her little hands vigorously and giggled: "Thank you, grandpa, I like this little sister."

Old General Chen twirled his beard and said with a smile: "As long as you like it. Sangzhi's father is a soldier who has been with me for a long time. It doesn't matter if you match her sister. At least she can stay with you for a long, long time."

This time, Mrs. Chen was relieved.

With someone trained by his father personally following Qiao Wanshu, it was natural that he could not go wrong.

With such a delay, less than half an hour passed.

Fortunately, the Ninth Prince did not show any impatience. Instead, accompanied by his father Qiao and the four brothers, he drank tea and chatted, and he was able to talk about something.

Mrs. Chen came out with Qiao Wanshu in her arms and said apologetically to the Ninth Prince: "Your Highness, I kept you waiting for a long time. Shu'er was frightened yesterday and didn't sleep well, so she got up a little late."

The Ninth Prince looked at Qiao Wanshu, who still looked a little sluggish, with a flash of distress in his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "My previous request was too much. It doesn't matter if you wait a little longer."

It wasn't until Qiao Wanshu got on the carriage that she finally couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.

She shrank into Sang Zhi's arms, trying hard not to let the Qiao family see her tears.

But no matter how big the carriage was, it could still be seen clearly, so how could she hide it?

Mrs. Chen couldn't help but her eyes turned red again. She could only use Qiao Zhongtian's body to cover them up, and hid behind her husband to quickly wipe her tears.

The Ninth Prince got on his horse, took Qiao Wanshu and left.

Until the carriage turned the corner and was out of sight, the Qiao family still stood and watched for a long time, refusing to disperse.

The carriage drove for a while and then stopped. Qiao Wanshu looked around and saw that it was not the entrance to the palace.

"This is the Ministry of Justice. I want to come over and check some files. Do you mind?"

The Ninth Prince looked at Qiao Wanshu.

When talking to her now, I have unknowingly regarded her as a mature adult.

"Yeah, let's see."

Qiao Wanshu clearly noticed that the Ninth Prince's attitude seemed to have changed, but it felt good to be consulted on everything, and she didn't feel there was anything awkward about it.

When getting off the carriage, the prince originally wanted to get off with Qiao Wanshu in his arms, but Sang Zhi, who was given by General Chen, jumped down first and held his little master firmly in his arms.

Looking at the empty hands, the Ninth Prince inexplicably stuck his tongue to his cheek, turned around and walked ahead.

After receiving the news, the manager of the Criminal Department stood at the door to greet them in advance and led the Ninth Prince and Qiao Wanshu to the file room where the case files were stored.

Soon, stacks of relevant files were brought out and stacked high on the table.

"so much?"

The Ninth Prince frowned.

Even when he was fully responsible for this case, he did not write down a particularly large number of files. It was only two days later, but the files piled up like a mountain, apparently more than twice as many.

"The Ninth Prince doesn't know anything. Since the murderer surrendered, Dali Temple conducted a surprise inquiry and interrogated many related people, so the file has increased a lot."

After saying this, the Ninth Prince and Qiao Wanshu understood everything.

There must be a lot of fictitious case content in it, which is both fabrication and deception.

But he knew what he was saying, but he couldn't say it openly. The Ninth Prince waved his hand and said: "You can go down, I will take my time here and watch."

After the steward left, he looked at Qiao Wanshu again and said with a half-smile: "What should I do, little Shu'er, do you want me to read it to you?"

Qiao Wanshu looked at the Ninth Prince in confusion.

[I am an illiterate little baby now. If you don’t read to me, do you want me to read it in front of you? 】

[No, even if you read it to me, I probably wouldn’t be able to understand most of it. Oops, it’s so troublesome! 】

Seeing her struggling, the Ninth Prince couldn't help laughing.

It was better to quickly pick up a file and pretend to look through it to cover it up.

Qiao Wanshu also sat next to the Ninth Prince, watching as if he was doing it.

Of course she understood it completely, but she couldn't show it too obviously.

Most of the files here involve fraud. When Qiao Wanshu was with the Ninth Prince before, she had learned about the internal circumstances of many cases.

So just by scanning the file, you will know whether it is true or false.

Despite the large number of files, it was very easy for the two people who knew the inside story of the case to distinguish them.

But after the real contents hidden in it were screened out one by one, the two discovered that the murderer was too thoughtful.

The aftermath was almost watertight, and no new clues could be found at all.

[Since the murderer was so thoughtful, why did he leave the key piece of cloth in the hands of the prince? And with a little research, you can tell that they are costumes from a theater troupe. 】

[The only new clue today is that Bai Xiaosheng left for a while during the performance, and no one knows where he went. If it looks like this, the clues may point to him deliberately. 】

[What an upright conspiracy! 】

Qiao Wanshu was lost in thought when she suddenly saw the Ninth Prince's personal bodyguard saying to him: "Your Highness, King Jing is here."
