Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

A light laugh brought Xu Xingyin back to his senses. He turned around and saw himself in the mirror, looking like a peacock.

Her head was covered with colorful hairpins, and Danfeng was holding a jade hairpin in her hand, looking for a place to put it.

"..."

Xu Xingyin held his forehead weakly. In the past, things like dressing up were done by Danying. That girl was deft with her hands and had good taste. She looked like this when she was called Danfeng for the first time.

Facing Jing Zhichen's face that looked as if he had been laughed at, Xu Xingyin couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly.

"Your Highness, have you finished your work? You seem to be in the mood to care about these little things in the boudoir now."

"It's noisy outside, and the smell of blood is strong. Miss Xu Qi is helping you out of kindness, and I don't want you to suffer any loss."

Jing Zhichen suppressed his smile and said this with a serious face, "Huai Gu is very considerate and specially prescribed a tranquilizer for you. I will run a trip for you."

After Jing Zhichen finished speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and threw it over.

How could porcelain withstand being thrown like that? Xu Xingyin quickly reached out to catch the bottle. When she caught the bottle and looked up again, the man outside had disappeared.

Dan Feng sneered and said, "This prince is really awkward. He wants to be nice to our young lady, but he is embarrassed to be nice to himself."

The porcelain vase that was warm to the touch was held in Xu Xingyin's hand, and his heart was moved. Then he was startled by Danfeng's action of wanting to wear the flower in his hair. He quickly stopped Danfeng's hand and sighed:

"Dan Feng, are you afraid that I won't be robbed when I go out later? This hairpin is really ostentatious, we should keep a low profile."

"Young lady is of noble status. She is the most distinguished lady in the capital. What kind of gold, silver and jade ornaments are not suitable for her? In my opinion, Young lady can dress up in any way she wants!"

It was rare for Danfeng, who was usually tongue-tied, to say such nice words. Xu Xing couldn't help but chuckle. He then blocked Danfeng's actions and took off most of the hairpins on his head in one go, leaving only two that matched his clothes.

"It's rare that you're so sweet-talking, but your bearing and status are not built up by these external things."

Xu Xingyin said this to Danfeng with a smile, then walked out. He happened to see Jing Zhichen and Song Tuiguan negotiating outside.

"They are stubborn anyway, and Magistrate Song has been busy all night and is exhausted. How about handing them over to my people for trial?"

Logically speaking, Jing Zhichen's status was important, so he didn't need to report to Judge Song if he wanted to interrogate a suspect.

However, Jing Zhichen did not use his power to oppress others. He explained everything clearly to Tui Guan Song.

Handling official business impartially is not only a respect for Dayan's laws, but also a respect for Song Tui Guan himself.

It is a blessing for a country to have such a crown prince.

Thinking of this, Tui Guan Song was also very happy.

"I'm afraid that I'll disturb His Royal Highness's peace. If His Royal Highness is willing, I'll be more than happy to do so."

Jing Zhichen said a few more polite words and, with the approval of Magistrate Song, handed the thieves over to Cui Detao.

"Examine him carefully."

Among the people around Jing Zhichen, Aoying is a secret guard who rarely shows up;

Xuan Yao is considered a counselor, he is smart and mainly makes plans;

Xiao Anzi is responsible for daily serving, mostly serving as a personal attendant;

Cui Detao is the chief eunuch of the Eastern Palace. He used to work in the Eastern Depot and is very good at examining all kinds of affairs.

Cui Detao went to interrogate the people, and Xiao Anzi set out tea for the few people to chat inside. In order not to disturb their peace, Cui Detao and his men stayed very far away, but even though they were far away, they could occasionally hear some screams.

Not long after, Cui Detao came with a letter saying that he had pried open the thief's mouth.

The girls kidnapped from various villages were sold to a brothel in Jingzhou.

Most of the deflowered ones would stay in the brothels to receive ordinary customers, while the remaining innocent ones would be well trained and sent to be selected by some noblemen.

The Mr. Duan that Village Chief Zhang mentioned earlier is their boss. Mr. Duan was originally a bandit, but later on, no one knows how he ended up leading his brothers into doing this kind of stuff.

Although it was not considered to be aboveboard, he made money quickly and never treated them unfairly, so they just kept working for Master Duan.

This group of people have been doing this for several years and have never made any mistakes. Gradually, they have become bolder.

Under Cui Detao's coercion, the thieves revealed the location of their den and the name of the brothel, but they didn't know anything else.

It seemed that since they had confessed under Cui Detao's thundering means, they would naturally not tell any lies, so after a brief discussion, they divided their tasks.

Naturally, the people led by Song Tui Guan from Shuntian Prefecture would be responsible for such a dangerous task as clearing out the thieves' den.

Jing Zhichen and Xu Xingyin went to Jingzhou together to rescue the kidnapped girl. As for the village heads who assisted the tyrant, they were escorted back to Beijing by people from Shuntian Prefecture first.

Without further ado, the group prepared to set off when the sky was just getting light.

Cui Detao thoughtfully prepared a carriage for the two girls. Xu Xingyin appreciated this kindness, but in an emergency, Xu Xingyin did not have the patience to ride in the carriage all the way.

Therefore, after roughly expressing his intentions to Cui Detao, Xu Xingyin asked Dan Feng to follow the carriage slowly towards Jingzhou.

He picked a horse at random, mounted it, waved the whip, and followed the main force.

Jing Zhichen came out and just saw the moment Xu Xingyin jumped onto the horse.

As expected of a girl raised in a general's mansion, Xu Xingyin's way of riding a horse was not like that of a young lady from the boudoir in the capital. She deliberately posed to look good, and her movements were natural, graceful and neat.

The horse galloped, the wind lifted her ink-black hair, the gilded tassels jingled in the wind, and her wide red sleeves fluttered in the wind, dyeing the maple forest red in late autumn.

The maple leaves dyed half the sky red, and the beauty was swimming among the maple leaves. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the scenery was breathtakingly beautiful or the person was more beautiful.

"Your Highness."

Aoying's voice pulled Jing Zhichen out of his momentary trance. He turned his head away uncomfortably to hide his recent gaffe.

"how?"

Ao Ying whispered a few words into Jing Zhichen's ear, and Jing Zhichen's expression immediately became serious.

After Ao Ying finished speaking, Jing Zhichen frowned and glanced at Xu Xingyin who had ridden away for some distance. After thinking for a moment, he gave instructions.

"Aoying, stay and go with Xu Qi to rescue the kidnapped women. Remember, Xu Qi is not an official after all. I'm afraid those local snakes in Jingzhou may not give her face. Take my token and handle it. In addition, you must investigate the ins and outs of the kidnapping of these women and assist Shuntian Prefecture in solving this case."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"The rest of you, all follow me back to Beijing."

After Jing Zhichen gave the order, he saw the person who was riding the horse suddenly turn around. The sky and the earth were all ablaze red, except for her eyes which were as black as obsidian.

Perhaps because she had lived in the capital for too long and had not been so carefree for so long, the little girl waved at him happily.

"Hurry up and catch up!"
