Li Jinxian's wife-to-be was summoned to the Supervisory Office. In order to prevent too many people from scaring her, only Bai Ze and Jiang Xun interrogated her.
In the room used for receiving guests, the bride sat stiffly on a stool, looking very uneasy.
Seeing this, Jiang Xun personally poured her a cup of tea and said, "Don't be afraid, young lady. We are just asking a few simple questions."
The bride nodded nervously, picked up the warm tea with both hands and took a sip.
Jiang Xun stood not far in front of her and said slowly, "Now, we have basically confirmed that Cao Wenhao is the murderer of Li Jinxian..."
With a bang, the teacup in the bride's hand fell to the ground.
The tea soaked the ground and some of it spilled onto the bride's white dress.
Jiang Xun bent down slowly, picked up the teacup on the ground and placed it on the table, then continued what he had just unfinished.
"According to our investigation, the young lady has been in and out of Cao's house." Jiang Xun watched the bride's reaction closely, "I called the young lady here today to ask if she knows anything?"
When Jiang Xun went to pick up Cao Wenhao's manuscript, he also visited the people living in that area.
One of his classmates told him that one time when he came home late, he seemed to see Li Jinxian's bride entering Cao's house.
But he didn't see it clearly at the time, and if Jiang Xun hadn't asked him, he would never have told anyone.
After all, if something goes wrong it will ruin the girl's reputation.
The bride grabbed her dress nervously and fearfully, and said incoherently: "I...I have never been to...Cao's house, no...not me...I...I don't know anything."
Jiang Xun was not surprised by the bride's answer, and continued step by step: "Miss, Li Jinxian is only 21 years old this year, and she has an elderly grandmother at home.
He worked hard to live his life and behaved like a decent person, but he was murdered for no apparent reason, just when he was about to marry the girl he loved..."
"Stop talking." The bride interrupted Jiang Xun, tears welling up in her eyes.
It was impossible not to say it, Jiang Xun continued: "Miss, do you know that Li Jinxian was wearing a wedding dress when he died?
Did you know that your marriage certificate was on his desk? Do you know how many times he wrote your name? Do you know that a murderer would..."
"I'm telling you everything, please stop talking." The bride burst into tears, her voice full of grief and guilt.
Jiang Xun raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, and Bai Ze nodded to him appreciatively.
Finally, the bride confessed everything about her dealings with Cao Wenhao, told him everything she saw that night, and identified Cao Wenhao as the murderer of Li Jinxian.
With both witnesses and evidence in hand, Jiang Yueyang immediately opened the court and pronounced the verdict, sentencing Cao Wenhao to death and executing him at the market entrance three days later.
It was already dusk when the verdict was announced.
Jiang Yueyang was returning home from the Supervisory Office. When she passed by the "Hua Xia Grocery Store", she went in and sat for a while.
Ye Wuhen gave his own answer. He chose to stay in Daxia and not go back.
Jiang Yueyang respected his choice, patted him on the shoulder and left without saying anything.
But Ye Wuhen knew that she was telling him that there was nothing in this world that could not be overcome, and everything would be fine!
Half a month later.
The Supervisory Department has repeatedly solved strange cases and is officially back on track, and branches in various places have also started work.
At the same time, the Cangwu Army brought good news that the Eastern Turks had surrendered completely and Daxia had won!
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, people were excited and full of joy!
Emperor Yuan was very pleased and excitedly talked with the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Rites about rewarding the three armies.
Jiang Yueyang was also very happy in her heart. Her A Yue...her young general was finally coming back.
The system sensed her inner joy and asked curiously: [Host, if Lu Yunting comes back and asks you to marry him, will you agree? ]
As soon as these words were spoken, the voices in the hall instantly became lower, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen.
Jiang Yueyang thought about it and replied shyly: [I...I should...agree.]
[But didn’t you say you have to be at least 18 to get married? You’re only 16 this year.]
[It's a different time now!] Jiang Yueyang's eyebrows curved, and the scene of her and Lu Yunting's wedding emerged in her mind.
System: [Well...it would be better if you guys get married sooner. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll end up dead.]
[Ayue hasn't come back yet, so don't be such a pessimist.] Jiang Yueyang's voice contained a hint of warning.
The system didn't care. [Don't worry, Lu Yunting is fine. In another four or five days, they will return to the capital.]
[So fast?] Jiang Yueyang was very surprised.
The system said as a matter of course: [A few days after the victory report was sent out, Lu Yunting and his men returned to Beijing with their army. Judging from the time, they should be here soon.]
After listening to the system's words, Jiang Yueyang can't wait to meet Lu Yunting.
She was wondering, after not seeing each other for more than three months, whether he and she would become strangers, and what they should talk about when they met?
As she thought about it, she became lost in thought.
After a while, her eyelids began to feel heavy, her head nodded, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.
Emperor Yuan witnessed the whole process of her falling asleep. Looking at her sleeping, he couldn't help but smile slightly.
The child is grown up, it's time for him to get married.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Jiang Yueyang was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened by the voices of civil and military officials. She opened her eyes suddenly, her heart pounding.
When she came to her senses from the shock, she found herself lying on the low table, and the civil and military officials seemed to be objecting to something.
[Xiaogua, what happened? ] She asked blankly.
