Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Hua Manman asked about the Criminal Department.

"How is the investigation of the poisoning case of Prince Qing's son?"

Li Ji looked at her with a smile that was not a smile: "You really care about Prince Qing's son."

Hua Manman didn't hear the jealousy in the other party's words, but felt that this guy had a problem with his thinking.

She said angrily.

"I just want to know why Prince Qing's son is being targeted? I can use it as a warning so that I won't make the same mistakes in the future."

Li Ji was quite satisfied with this answer.

He stopped teasing her, but said slowly.

"Didn't you suspect that the person who poisoned him was by Prince Qing's side? Today, this king made a special trip to the Ministry of Punishment to interrogate all the other five princes."

Hua Manman asked curiously, "Did they confess?"

Li Ji smiled: "Of course not."

Those five princes are not stupid, how could they admit that they poisoned others?

No matter how much the regent questioned, they all said that they had never poisoned anyone.

If they were ordinary suspects, the regent could let them experience all the torture in prison.

But those five princes can't do it.

They are the next heirs of the vassal kings everywhere, and they are also the bargaining chips for the regent to contain the vassal kings.

Before the matter of cutting the vassal is settled, none of these princes can have anything to do!

Li Ji could neither kill them nor torture them.

Huamanman is very disappointed.

"then what should we do?"

If the real culprit is not caught for a day, it will be difficult to guarantee her safety.

Li Ji curled his lips slightly, and smiled mysteriously: "Although they killed them and refused to recognize them, this king already knows which of them is the one who poisoned them."

Hua Manman was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

Li Ji glanced at Jiao Gui who was standing beside him.

Hua Manman immediately said to Jiao Gui.

"You go down first."

Jiao Gui hesitated for a moment, thinking that this is Prince Yu's Mansion, and the Prince Regent is still watching, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with the Shizi.

So she obediently withdrew.

The door was closed.

But Jiao Gui didn't go far away, but stood outside the door, and at the same time pricked up his ears, wanting to hear what the people in the room had to say.

In the room, Li Ji shook his hand holding the teacup towards the door, expressing his intentions.

"Be careful."

Hua Manman has long known that Jiaogui and her are not of the same mind.

That's okay too.

She herself is not from Prince Yu's Mansion, and has no sense of belonging to Prince Yu's Mansion, so it is normal for people in Prince Yu's Mansion to have scruples about her.

Everyone is just carefully probing and taking advantage of each other.

Hua Manman: "Don't worry about her, tell me who is the poisoner?"

Li Ji hooked his fingers towards her,

"Come here."

Hua Manman leaned over obediently.

Li Ji looked at her beautiful face that was getting closer and closer, and the smile in his eyes grew stronger.

"Come on a little bit more, we have to talk about this quietly, and we can't let anyone know."

So Hua Manman moved closer.

Seeing that her cheek was about to touch the tip of his nose, suddenly Cheng Yaojin came out halfway.

Li Xun's small head squeezed in abruptly.

He is like the Milky Way that separates the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, lying between them.

He blinked his eyes, his little face was full of curiosity.

"What secrets are you talking about? I want to know too."

Li Ji: "..."

The stinky son is indeed his biggest nemesis in this life!

He angrily pushed people away.

"Children's family, why are you joining in the fun? Stay away!"

Li Xun hated being treated like a child the most.

Because his father always used this kind of rhetoric to suppress him.

If it was normal, he would definitely have a fight with his father with all his teeth and claws.

But now my mother is watching from the side.

He couldn't spoil his obedient image in his mother's heart, so he turned his head and threw himself into his mother's arms, pretending to cry.

"Mother, my father is attacking me again!"

Li Ji: "..."

The brat's ability to complain is getting more and more proficient!

Hua Manman touched the child's head and said to the Prince Regent.

"Don't be mean to him, he's just a child."

Li Ji was very angry: "You actually help him or not me?!"

In the angry tone, there was actually a bit of undetectable grievance hidden.

Obviously at the beginning Manman cared about him the most, but now Manman actually helps others talk about him.

Sure enough, after having a son, does he have to step aside as a husband? !

Li Xun was very happy.

He deliberately bared his teeth at his father: "Did you hear that? Mother told you not to attack me."

Li Ji reached out to grab his ear.

"The brat is looking for a beating!"

Li Xun quickly shrank into his mother's arms, still shouting: "Mother, save me!"

Hua Manman was quarreled with by the father and son.

She waved away the hand extended by the regent, and then let go of the child in her arms, allowing him to sit properly.

Hua Manman said with a headache: "Okay, don't say a few words."

Day by day, life is really noisy.

She forcibly separated the two.

Finally, Li Ji sat on the left, and Li Xun sat on the right.

Hua Manman sat in the middle.

She coughed lightly, interrupting the staring of the father and son.

"Let's get back to business, who is the poisoner?"

Li Ji spit out two words slowly.

"Li Qi."

Hua Manman didn't realize who this person was.

Li Ji took the initiative to explain: "Li Qi is the eldest son of the Zhengwang Palace."

It was only then that Hua Manman remembered that the son of Zhengwangfu was the fattest one.

It turned out that his name was Li Qi.

Unexpectedly, he is chubby and looks easy to get along with, but he can do things like poisoning people in private.

Hua Manman was very curious: "How do you know it was he who poisoned you?"

Li Ji naturally knew it through mind reading.

He smiled mysteriously.

"You'll know later."

Hua Manman thought he didn't want to answer, so she skipped this topic and asked instead.

"Do you have proof?"

Li Ji lazily said: "If this king had evidence, he would have been convicted long ago."

This matter is difficult because there is no evidence and torture cannot be used.

Hua Manman: "Could this be the end of the matter?"

Li Ji: "With this king, there is nothing to forget. Just wait and see, no matter how cunning a fox is, it will show its tail sometimes."

Seeing his confident appearance, Hua Manman guessed that he should have already made arrangements.

She tactfully did not pursue further.

Anyway, as long as she knows who the real culprit is, she can just take more precautions in the future.

Everything else has nothing to do with her.

Her attention was drawn to another matter.

"The son of Prince Qing is called Li Yu, and the son of Prince Zheng is called Li Qi...do all the sons of the royal family have luggage?"

Li Ji gave an affirmative answer: "Yes."

Hua Manman pointed to the tip of her nose.

"Then why is my surname Lu?"

Li Ji laughed: "Because your Prince Yu's Mansion is the only king with a different surname among all the vassal kings."

Everyone in the world knows about this.

Only Hua Manman, who has lost her memory, does not know.
