"Where are you going, Prince?"
Xiao Jinyan's voice was cold and distant: "I am about to go to the Ministry of Justice, where are you going, brother?"
"I am just about to go to the imperial study." Xiao Yunxuan was about to leave when he asked with a smile, "Prince, how is the investigation of the poisoning case going?"
Xiao Jinyan said, "It's rare to see that Big Brother cares so much about my investigation of the case."
"I am also concerned about the prince. If I don't get to the bottom of this, the prince might not be able to sleep well at night." Xiao Yunxuan deliberately emphasized the last sentence.
Xiao Jinyan said coldly: "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
At this time, Wei Chi ran over quickly and whispered in Xiao Jinyan's ear: "Your Highness, the criminal Qiu Kui committed suicide by taking poison."
Xiao Jinyan opened his eyes wide, "What did you say?"
Wei Chi raised his voice and repeated again: "The criminal Qiu Kui committed suicide by taking poison."
Wei Chi's voice was not loud, but not small either, and was just heard by Xiao Yunxuan. A sneer flashed in his eyes, "Go ahead and investigate. No matter how hard you try, it's just a waste of time."
Xiao Jinyan's eyes changed, "Where did she get the poison? Take me to see it quickly."
After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he strode towards the Ministry of Justice, but was stopped by Xiao Yunxuan: "Prince, what happened that makes you so anxious?"
Xiao Jinyan replied calmly: "It's just a small matter. I have to deal with it now."
Xiao Yunxuan asked knowingly, "Really? Could it be that the case has been resolved?"
"You'll know when I get there." Xiao Jinyan said coldly, then strode away.
Xiao Yunxuan looked at Xiao Jinyan's leaving back and snorted coldly, "You'll never find out in this lifetime."
When Xiao Jinyan rushed to the dungeon, he saw a corpse lying on the ground, covered with a white cloth.
"Are you ready?"
Wei Chi lowered his brows and nodded: "Your Highness, I'm ready."
Xiao Jinyan ordered: "Spread the news."
"Yes." Wei Chi turned and left.
Xiao Yunxuan came back from the imperial study and overheard the conversation between two young eunuchs on the way.
"A miracle doctor is a miracle doctor. He gave me a prescription and the patient came back to life."
"That's right. I heard that Shen Liang Di was also poisoned. I don't know where Your Highness invited a miracle doctor to save her."
Xiao Yunxuan's face changed when he heard this. She was actually saved? He suddenly remembered that Shen Liangdi drank poison and should have died on the spot, but she was alive and well.
The same thing happened during the last autumn hunting trip.
Xiao Jinyan actually has such a powerful doctor by his side? Can he bring the dead back to life?
"By the way, I heard that His Highness took the prisoner to the East Palace..."
When Xiao Yunxuan heard the specific address, he strode away with a gloomy face.
Shen Chuwei slept until noon. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, glanced at the bed, and found that Xiao Jinyan was no longer beside her.
She sat up slowly and saw an exquisite purse and a small note on the pillow next to her. She picked it up curiously and found it was quite heavy.
She first glanced at the note, which read: New Year's money.
Shen Chuwei couldn't help laughing after reading it, "Xiao Jinyan actually remembered to give her New Year's money, I didn't realize that."
She looked at the purse again and examined it carefully. There was an exquisite pattern embroidered on the purse in the shape of a rabbit.
She untied the knot and poured out the contents, discovering they were six gold bars.
"Xiao Jinyan is so generous. The New Year's gift is actually six gold bars."
Chunxi heard laughter at the door, pushed the door open and walked in, lifted the bed railing, and saw the happy face of her young mistress.
"My Lord, what are you so happy about?"
"Your Highness is so kind to me." Chunxi's eyes widened when she saw the six gold bars.
Shen Chuwei stared at the six gold bars for a while. They were enough for her to eat and drink for a long time. She suggested that the act of giving gold bars as gifts could continue.
"My lady, when His Highness left today, he also gave a reward of silver to Xiyun Pavilion, ten taels per person, which is equivalent to three months' monthly salary." Chunxi said happily.
Shen Chuwei showed an admiring look when she heard this, "I just like Xiao Jinyan's domineering CEO style."
Chunxi asked curiously, "My lady, what is the domineering CEO style?"
Shen Chuwei explained in easy-to-understand words: "It means he is handsome, rich, and generous."
Chunxi said with a smile: "I understand. I like it too."
Shen Chu smiled, who doesn’t like a domineering CEO?
Chunxi asked curiously, "My lady, what are you going to give to His Highness?"

"Should I send one too?" Shen Chuwei was full of doubts. She thought she was the youngest and didn't need to send one.
Chunxi said seriously, "My lady, His Highness has so many women, how can you not give him some gifts to show your appreciation?"
It’s no wonder Chunxi thought this way. It was normal for men in ancient times to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention the prince, who had many women, which was even more normal.
When a man has so many women, it's like there are too many wolves and too little meat. Women have to fight for it. The one who doesn't fight for it will definitely not get any meat.
Unfortunately, she came from modern times!
"Let me think about it."
Shen Chuwei thought of a stone in the space. It looked very beautiful and would be a good choice as a necklace.
Thinking of this, she reached her hand under the pillow and actually used her mind to take the stone out of the space.
She clenched the stone in her hand and held it out to Chunxi, "Give this to His Highness."
Chunxi took a closer look and said, "My lady, what material is this made of? It looks very beautiful."
Shen Chu smiled and said, "Stones glow at night."
"..." Chunxi: "My lady, His Highness gave you six gold bars as New Year's money, and a stone, how can you give it to me?"
Shen Chuwei said, "The gift is small but the sentiment is great. Your Highness doesn't like fancy things."
"...But." Chunxi looked at the stone in the young lady's hand and felt it was shabby no matter how he looked at it.
When Night Falls
Three black figures quickly sneaked into the East Palace and into the side room on the north side.
With a "creak", the door was cut open by a knife, and three black figures rushed into the side room, their eyes fell on the bed.
There was no light in the room, and I could only vaguely see the bulging bedding on the bed with the moonlight outside the window, and a person lying inside.
One of them clenched the knife in his hand and swung it at the person on the bed without hesitation. When the knife fell, no sound of blood and flesh was heard.
Just then, dozens of people rushed in at the door and the lights in the room suddenly lit up.
The three men in black then realized that they had been deceived and began to rush out, waving their knives.
Every guard that came in was skilled in martial arts.
After a few moves, he was at a disadvantage.
Xiao Jinyan walked in and looked at one of the figures. He had a tall and straight figure, with a black scarf on his face, revealing only a pair of dark eyes.
A cold light flashed across his eyes: "Brother, stop struggling in vain. You can't escape tonight."
