"This silver note," Yinzhen asked, "should we examine it?"
Yinzhen had little hope for the outcome; the investigation would most likely lead to... Prince Zhi. If that were the case, then it was unlikely that he was the one who did it.
However, who did it isn't the most important thing right now; let's get the tenth brother out of trouble first.
"check!"
The next day, Yinzhen drafted a report on the results of his recent investigation and submitted it to the Emperor.
After reading it once, Kangxi looked at Yinzhen and said, "Is this the result of your investigation? The Nalan clan framed the Tenth Prince?"
"Replying to Your Majesty, Wenyunxuan is a property of a branch of the Nalan family. The silver notes given to the victim's younger brother also came from their family's business. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that the tenth brother is innocent. As for why this branch wanted to harm the tenth brother, it is probably related to the tenth brother's usual inappropriate words and deeds and his tendency to offend people everywhere."
Kangxi remained silent for a long time, then smiled: "The Tenth Prince has misbehaved and will be confined to his quarters for three months and have his salary reduced for a year. As for this Nalan something-or-other, he falsely accused a prince and will be executed immediately, and his family will be exiled."
"Your Majesty is wise." Yinzhen breathed a sigh of relief.

"The eldest prince went out with the master this morning, presumably because he had a social engagement."
Yi Hua didn't pay attention at first, but then she suddenly realized that Yinzhen had gone to investigate a case today, so it was obvious where Hong Hui had gone with him.
very good.
"Oh right, I made some sour lemon tea earlier, a really strong brew. Honghui loves it, I'll wait for him to come back and drink it."
Yu Xiao looked up at Yi Hua's smiling face and felt a chill for no reason.
