Shen Chuwei saw Xiao Jinyan sitting still, neither walking nor sleeping.

"Your Highness, did I perform well today?"

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Well, if nothing unexpected happens, we can find out the mastermind behind this tomorrow."

Shen Chuwei curved his eyebrows and said, "Your Highness performed very well today."

Xiao Jinyan was amused, "Tomorrow, I will have someone send you a sheep, and you can roast it and eat it."

"Really?" Shen Chuwei hadn't eaten roasted whole lamb for a long time. She had it with Xiao Jinyan last year. Now, she was drooling when she mentioned it.

Xiao Jinyan laughed softly: "When have I ever lied to you?"

Shen Chuwei curved her eyebrows and said, "I will have roasted whole lamb for dinner tomorrow. Your Highness, do you want to eat with me tomorrow? I won't add any spicy food..."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes paused and he pursed his lips tightly.

After Shen Chuwei finished speaking, she felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. It was also at this time that she remembered that tomorrow was the big day for enthroning the Crown Princess. It would be extremely busy and she would have no time to eat roasted whole lamb.

"Your Highness is busy with official duties every day. When you want to eat, I will ask Chunxi to roast it for you." Shen Chuwei tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Xiao Jinyan nodded in response, "Well, you should rest early."

"Yeah." Shen Chuwei took away the soft pillow behind her, lay down on the bed, pulled the quilt, and was about to close her eyes, but saw Xiao Jinyan sitting still.

"Your Highness?"

Xiao Jinyan stood up, leaned over to cover her with the quilt again, stared at her for a while, and said, "Go to sleep."

After saying that, he stood up straight and walked out.

Shen Chuwei watched Xiao Jinyan's back as he left. Only when she heard the door close did she look away, close her eyes and go to sleep.

After Xiao Jinyan returned to the bedroom, he went straight to the study. Because he couldn't sleep, he planned to get to the bottom of the matter overnight to avoid hurting anyone again in the future.

Liu Xi worked very quickly and found out all the details about Imperial Physician Zhao in no time.

Xiao Jinyan asked: "How is the investigation going?"

"Your Highness, Imperial Physician Zhao was originally a doctor in Chang'an Street. He has two elder parents and a wife and children at home. He was able to work in the Imperial Hospital with the recommendation of Scholar Chang. He has been working there for more than a year. Imperial Physician Zhao's mother is Scholar Chang's wet nurse."

Master Chang is the second brother of Chang Liangdi and the second son of General Chang.

Then, Liu Xi took out a purse and handed it to Xiao Jinyan, "Your Highness, this was found from Imperial Physician Zhao."

Xiao Jinyan took it and took a look. It was just an ordinary purse. He weighed it and it was quite heavy. He opened it and poured out the contents. He found three gold bars. He seemed to have guessed something. He ordered, "Go to the prison."

"Yes." Liu Xi responded, holding a lantern and leading the way.

At this time, it was already the second watch of the night and the entire palace was shrouded in darkness.

Under the guidance of Liu Xi, they arrived at the Tianlao.

Wei Chi stayed by Imperial Physician Zhao's side all the time, just in case something might happen.

Wei Chi heard the noise and looked up. Seeing the prince coming, he quickly stood up and bowed, "Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan, dressed in a dark brocade robe, stood outside the prison door, looking at the Imperial Physician Zhao inside. The Imperial Physician Zhao was tied up with a rag stuffed in his mouth.

Wei Chi has always been straightforward and prudent in his work.

He asked, "Did he confess?"

Wei Chi shook his head, "Your Highness, no."

At this time, Imperial Physician Zhao was already exhausted. Although he was tied up and facing a dangerous situation, he still couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep leaning against the wall.

Xiao Jinyan ordered coldly: "Wake him up."

"I obey your command." Wei Chi came to the corner, picked up a bucket of cold water on the ground, opened the cell door, lifted the bucket and poured it on Zhao Imperial Physician's head.

The cold water poured down on his head, stimulating Zhao Imperial Physician to wake up instantly.

The last three words were spoken after careful consideration.

There may be some prejudice, but Chang Liangdi is the most suspicious.

There is a high possibility that the Chang family and Imperial Physician Zhao, out of gratitude for their recognition, will do things for Chang Liangdi.

"Your Highness, this is really the work of this humble minister alone. It has nothing to do with others."

Imperial Physician Zhao originally wanted to persist, after all, there was no evidence to prove that it was related to Chang Liangdi.

But just as she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xiao Jinyan's cold voice, "You still refuse to tell the truth now? Do you want me to invite all your family members over and interrogate them one by one?"

Without waiting for Imperial Physician Zhao to refute.

Xiao Jinyan took out the purse again and showed it to Imperial Physician Zhao, "You should recognize this, right?"

Imperial Physician Zhao recognized at a glance that it was the gold bar given by Chang Liangdi, and he collapsed completely.

Finally, Imperial Physician Zhao confessed and signed his name on the whole story.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Imperial Physician Zhao was able to enter the palace and take up the post thanks to Scholar Chang. In addition, Chang Huilan would be entering the Eastern Palace soon and would need the help of an acquaintance, so an imperial physician was indispensable.

Otherwise, Master Chang would not have recommended him so casually.

Imperial Physician Zhao and Chang Huilan have been in contact since they entered the palace.

A few days ago, Concubine Xu asked for a prescription for having a child, and it happened to be heard by Imperial Physician Zhao. After telling Chang Liangdi, he gave Concubine Xu a fake prescription with the purpose of bringing down Concubine Xu.

Xiao Jinyan looked at the confession and felt that it was worth it for him to deal with the matter overnight. The truth of the matter had been revealed. Not only that, the issue of appointing the Crown Princess was also resolved.

The position of Crown Princess Chang Liangdi is untouchable.

It was already four o'clock in the morning. Xiao Jinyan did not rush to settle the score with Chang Liangdi, but returned to the palace, intending to have a good rest and make the matter public tomorrow morning.

At five o'clock in the morning , Chang Liangdi was soaking in a bathtub, which was not only filled with fresh flower petals, but also precious essential oils.

While being served by the maids, they explained the etiquette of enthronement.

Chang Liangdi listened quietly. Although she was a little sleepy at the moment, she immediately became energetic when she thought of the enthronement ceremony in an hour, and her eyes were full of anticipation.

After bathing, I do various skin care treatments and put on a formal dress.

The dress is complicated, with layer upon layer, and is very exquisite.

After getting dressed, it is time to do makeup, which also has its own requirements and needs to be done by the old maids in the palace.

Chang Liangdi sat in front of the dressing table, watching the maids busying themselves with braiding her hair and putting on the dragon and phoenix hairpin that only the Crown Princess could wear, with unconcealable joy in her eyes.

Finally, with the skillful hands of the maids, the dignified, elegant and grand makeup was completed.

She walked out, supported by the maids.

At the entrance of the enthronement ceremony, apart from the master of ceremonies of the guard of honor, no one saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"It's already this hour, why hasn't His Highness come yet?"

"Wasn't it prepared in advance?"

"Go and have a look at what happened. It would be bad if you were late and missed the auspicious time."

Everyone was talking about it, looking worried.

Chang Liangdi looked towards the direction of the prince's bedroom, but didn't see Xiao Jinyan, and couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Could it be that Xiao Jinyan stayed in Hehuan Palace last night? 　Good night, my dears!

It’s Monday, a new beginning. I’m acting cute and asking for monthly votes and recommendation votes!
