The matter of the insect poison was entrusted to Yu Jing'er and her grandfather for research.
Where is the patient?
Murong Jin: "Let Thirteen take you to see it. If there are any problems or you need any materials, just say so."
Yu Jing'er: "Okay."
Three days later.
Murong Jin arrived at the palace.
Looking at the magnificent imperial city, Murong Jin was pushed inside by Yi Yi.
"Jing'er said that the insects in the medicine can control people's thoughts, and she has already asked Yi Liu to take her to collect some materials to cure the poison."
Murong Jin: "Mm."
“Recently, some ministers raised this issue during court sessions, and His Majesty has arranged for many people to assist in the investigation.”
"The Dali Temple has begun investigating suspects."
"Although the Prime Minister wasn't involved in this matter, he was still resolving some issues among the people."
"It was during court that His Majesty seemed somewhat distracted; this was what Commander An told his subordinates."
Murong Jin: "..." It was just through Yi Yi's mouth that he told her that His Majesty wanted her to go to the palace to find him.
In the imperial study, Emperor Junlan was reviewing memorials, while An Kesen stood there dumbfounded.
Jing'er has been missing for over a month. At first, she would send him messages, but later she disappeared without a trace.
She didn't send any letters after the imperial examination ended. Could it be that the girl said she was going to resolve something, but she went back to the village where they used to know each other?
That place is very far away, you could say it's several border cities away...
The round trip takes one or two months...
He looked at Emperor Junlan with some concern, "Your Majesty, I have something to attend to..."
"Go, I grant your permission."
Ankerson choked, he hadn't even said what it was about yet.
"However, if you want to find the woman who is entangled with the Regent, I suggest you go to the mortuary."
An Kesen was taken aback. Di Junlan looked at his silly expression and said, "Yu Jing'er is currently working as an insect and gu medicine master under the Regent."
An Kesen: "Huh??? How come I didn't know about this?" He had arranged for people to investigate, leaving no stone unturned, how come he didn't find out about such a small matter?
Also, how did His Majesty find out?
"My relationship with the Regent is so good, and I will be the Regent's Consort in the future. Do you think I wouldn't know?"
Ankesen looked puzzled. The Regent's Wife?
Looking at the calm face of the emperor, An Kesen felt for the first time that Di Junlan seemed quite shameless...
The Regent's Wife? How could he even say that?
An Kesen left the imperial study and went outside. "Eunuch Zhao, please take good care of His Majesty. I'm going out for a bit."
Zhao Delin: "Okay."
As An Kesen passed by the Imperial Garden, he saw Murong Jin emerging from not far away.
"I hope the Regent is well."
Murong Jin: "Commander An."
"Then I shall take my leave."
Looking at the person rushing around, Yi asked with a puzzled expression, "Why is he running so fast?"
Murong Jin knew perfectly well: "Probably busy seeing her sweetheart."
Yi Yi didn't understand, nor did he think much of it, and pushed Murong Jin towards the direction of the Imperial Study.
Upon entering the palace, the young eunuch guarding the palace knelt on the ground and said, "This servant greets the Regent."
"No need for formalities."
"This servant will go and inform His Majesty..."
Murong Jin: "No need, I will go to see His Majesty myself."
"Okay, okay..."
Watching that departing figure, the little eunuch's eyes were filled with excitement; the Regent was so majestic.
"Smack!"
He was hit on the head. "Stop looking. The Regent belongs to everyone."
"I really admire the Regent."
"Yes, they are. What a pity. I wonder which rich young lady will benefit from them in the future."
Upon hearing this, the young eunuch exclaimed, "But didn't I hear that the Regent Prince likes men?"
The eunuch beside him said, "Rumors are not to be believed. You won't admit you're stupid. All we need to do is serve our master well."
Little eunuch: "Yes."
………
Zhao Delin looked at the people entering from a distance and was about to bow when he was stopped.
"Your Highness."
What is Your Majesty doing?
Zhao Delin: "Revising memorials."
"Um."
Yi Yi pushed the person inside, with Zhao Delin following behind.
Di Junlan's hands moved quickly. After hearing the sound of the wheelchair turning, he looked over and saw the person standing by the door, especially the man in the wheelchair. He had a smile on his face, especially the slight upturn at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were looking in Di Junlan's direction.
At that moment, Di Junlan felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Murong Jin's smile was something he wanted to protect for a lifetime.
"The Regent has arrived."
"Your Majesty, I have come to see you."
After Zhao Delin and Yi Yi left, only Murong Jin and Di Junlan remained in the Imperial Study.
"Brother, you've come to see me?"
"Is everything settled?"
Murong Jin sat opposite him. "Not yet. The matter of the Gu worms has been handed over to Yumen. Yi Liu and the others are currently collecting materials. It is estimated that the detoxification will take some time."
"I see. Do you need some help? I can arrange some capable people for my brother."
Murong Jin looked at the expression on his face. He clearly saw the fawning in it, and couldn't help but chuckle, "No need, Your Majesty. Quite a few suspects have been apprehended, though."
"As for the others, we can just lure them out step by step."
Emperor Junlan: "Okay."
Since he's not going to talk about official business, he's going to start acting lewd.
Di Junlan placed the last memorial on the table. "By the way, brother, could you please answer this question for me?"
Murong Jin went over to take a look, and although her gaze fell on Di Junlan, who had a smile in his eyes, she still compromised and slowly explained to Di Junlan.
The clear, melodious voice lingered in Murong Jin's eyes as he watched her lips move. He might have heard what she said, or he might not have; perhaps he was too busy watching her…
"I think we should build more girls' schools. What does the Regent think?"
Murong Jin looked at him. Girls' schools did exist, but they were few and far between. This was because one of the royal ancestors was an enlightened monarch who, while changing some of the status of women, did not completely change the so-called "three obediences and four virtues"... the idea that there were three unfilial acts... and the preference for sons over daughters...
A tradition spanning thousands of years cannot be easily changed.
Murong Jin did not object to this, "Okay."
"My great-great-grandmother was a heroine in her time. Because of that, although there were still people in every household who looked down on their daughters, many families began to raise their daughters well..."
"Women are just as capable as men; this saying has been passed down in our Dacheng for generations. It's just that some people are stubborn and look down on women..."
Murong Jin hummed in agreement, "It'll change gradually."
Emperor Junlan: "So, what do you think of this answer, brother?"
"Okay." Just now, her gaze made her think that Di Junlan wasn't listening to her explanation, but she didn't expect him to be able to multitask.
