The two princes were not stupid. They had heard about Mu Nanjin's affairs long ago, so they would not hand over the royal genealogy to her. Moreover, they had heard from the left prime minister about how to deal with Mu Nanjin, so they would not be stupid enough to reveal the names of the royal family to Mu Nanjin.

Prince Yi poured Mu Nanjin a cup of tea: "Duke, please have some tea."

Prince Guang picked up the white booklet and said, "Duke, we are busy registering funeral matters today. Please take a look."

If it weren't for someone else, they would definitely not show the booklet to others casually, but Mu Nanjin was different. The emperor allowed her to enter and exit every government office and also allowed her to be in charge of everything. If they didn't show her the booklet, it would be tantamount to disobeying the emperor's order.

The so-called booklet is actually a folded paper, about the same size as a memorial, but half a foot thick.

Its function is to record the funeral arrangements of every deceased member of the royal family, which means that the people registered are all deceased.

Even if Mu Nanjin knew a lot, she couldn't use the dead as an excuse. After all, the dead are the greatest, and no matter how ignorant she was, she should respect the dead. Even if she knew some shocking secrets, as long as it was not something that angered the heavens and the people, the emperor would not pursue it. So giving her the funeral book was the wisest choice.

not to mention……

Mu Nanjin took the book and asked, "Is there no royal book of the family tree?"

Prince Guang replied, "Not today. The main reason is that we will not easily take out the royal book if no one wants to enter it into the family tree. After all, the royal book records the birth dates of the entire royal family. To prevent people with bad intentions from using the birth dates of royal family members to do bad things, we will seal it up and take it out when a royal family member is born. Moreover, we only take it out once a year. We will take out the royal book on the day before New Year's Eve and record the birth dates of children born that year, then seal it up and take it out next year."

When Captain Liu heard them say this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Without the list, Mu Nanjin couldn't think about things that would make people hate him.

Mu Nanjin didn't have to see it, so he opened the first page of the white booklet, which recorded the funeral of Princess Lang'an of Langfeng City. This person died of illness when she was less than twelve years old, and the princess's closest relatives were no longer in this world. It was the local government that helped organize her funeral. The saddest thing was that only a few distant relatives came from afar to attend the funeral, and the scene was tragic.

She felt there was nothing to read, so she turned to the next page.

However, there was a blank space behind.

"Why is there only one person's funeral? What about the others?"

Prince Guang said, "We just received the news of Princess Lang'an's death today. Coincidentally, the pages in the book that once recorded the girl's death before she got married are full, so we had to get a new book to record Princess Lang'an's funeral."

Captain Liu secretly gave a thumbs up to Prince Guang.

Very high.

There was only a record in the white book of an inconspicuous little princess who lived in a remote place and had no close relatives. It would be difficult for Mu Nanjin to expose the secret of the person, not to mention that the person was dead and there was nothing to say.

Mu Nanjin asked: "What about the funeral books for other people?"

"They are all placed in Xiao'an Hall for worship. We cannot take them out without the emperor's permission."

Mu Nanjin glanced at him.

[Do the two princes take me for a fool? Do you think I can't see that they don't want me to touch these books? ]

[I'm confused. I'm just looking at it, not going to eat it. Why is it guarding against me like a thief? ]

【With their attitude now, I can’t even see the marriage register or title register.】

"Who says there aren't other good ones?"

Mu Nanjin looked at the name of Princess Lang'an and said, "I learned a lot from the book."

Prince Yi and Prince Guang were stunned.

This Princess Lang'an was a distant relative of theirs. If the local government had not reported it, they would have almost forgotten that there was such a relative in Langfeng City. If Princess Lang'an had not had a tiny blood relationship with them, they would not have recorded her in the royal funeral book.

Even they didn't know about Princess Lang'an, so they didn't believe that Mu Nanjin could figure out anything just by looking at Princess Lang'an.

Prince Yi asked, "My Lord, please allow me to ask you out of curiosity. What can you figure out from just looking at a book? Can you tell us what you figured out?"

Mu Nanjin looked at Princess Lang'an's name and said, "Princess Lang'an's grandfather, Prince De's grandmother, was Princess Zhensi, and Princess Zhensi was the late emperor's cousin. The late emperor gave her the title of princess because she treated him like her own son."

Prince Yi and Prince Guang: "!!!!"

If the local officials of Langfeng City had not reported the matter of Princess Lang'an, they would not have known who Princess Lang'an was.

The Emperor had originally conferred the title of Duke of De, the grandfather of Princess Lang'an, on Princess Zhensi because of his love for him, and had listed them in the family tree. Of course, the main reason was that Duke of De lost his father when he was a child and was raised by Princess Zhensi, so Duke of De changed his surname to Liang like Princess Zhensi, and was therefore eligible to be included in the family tree.

Although they are relatives, they have only met Prince De once, let alone his granddaughter.

Captain Liu glanced quickly at the booklet. It only said that Princess Lang'an was the granddaughter of Prince De, but did not mention Princess Zhensi.

It seems that Mu Nanjin read about Prince De from her "gossip news" again.

"Princess Zhensi's grandson, Prince Shun, has a good relationship with you. By the way, Prince Shun's grandson Liang Huanlin also works in the Imperial Clan Palace and is currently in charge of guarding the prison cells in the Imperial Clan Palace. Although his position is not high, his salary is higher than that of a first-rank official."

Prince Yi and Prince Guang: "!!!"

Didn’t the Left Prime Minister say that as long as Mu Nanjin didn’t know the name, she wouldn’t be able to reveal the other party’s secrets.

But now, he could tell so many things just by looking at the funeral record of Princess Lang'an? He even knew Liang Huanlin's salary clearly! !

Prince Yi frowned: "The booklet doesn't say anything, how do you know so much? Did you investigate before you came?"

Mu Nanjin said, "Yes, I have investigated. I know that you will not show me the family tree and royal book today. I also checked that you will only use the funeral book today. I also investigated whose names you will record today."

Prince Yi: “…”

They had only received the news of Princess Lang'an's death this morning, so she had no chance to investigate the matter.

This means that the Duke of Zhenguo really possesses great supernatural powers and knows a lot of information that is not known to ordinary people.

Mu Nanjin asked: "I have discovered something else. Do you want to hear it?" (End of this chapter)
