After saying some basic things, Sanguizi started to talk about what she felt was wrong.
"Isn't the Third Prince investigating the demon case? The first person he investigated was the guards of the Imperial City.”
"He checked the guards of the Imperial City, checked the list of names on that day, and then checked the people who had been circulating in the Imperial City recently. In the end, he found something wrong with the goods that were circulating.”
"A shop under an official bought a batch of iron ore that day. The seller of the iron ore was a merchant named Han Sheng. He said that he had shipped it from Li City, which was far away, and the price had risen a little.”
"However, when the Third Prince checked the name list, he did not find this person named Han Sheng on the recent name list. In other words, the Imperial City guards missed this person!”
"After investigating, it was indeed found that a garrison soldier had been bribed. He didn't record the merchant's name or the batch of goods and let him in.”
"Thinking about it this way, how many people in the Imperial City's garrison still take bribes? How did the demons get in? That's how I came in!"
Three Osmanthus paused." The Third Prince continued to investigate and found out that a few guards who took bribes came from the Nangong family. This was a big deal. The Third Prince directly targeted the Nangong family.”
"The Nangong family is the mother of you and the First Prince, and they are your supporters. They have a lot of power in the court, and the Third Prince has finally found out about the Nangong family. He will definitely make a big fuss and make the Nangong family spit out blood. Today, the Third Prince has been looking for trouble with the Nangong family for the entire day.”
Su Yuan nodded.”
"Also, I think there's something wrong with the group of people from Bright Moon Academy.”
"After the Monster Case, these guys didn't hurry up and investigate. Instead, they went around giving gifts. On the surface, they said that it was related to the Monster Case, but in fact, they were just trying to build connections. They gave gifts everywhere and formed cliques.”
"This makes this servant feel a little strange.”
"Isn't this group of people from Bright Moon Academy too much of an official?”
Hong Xiu said strangely," San Guizi, you didn't get any useful information.”
Sanguizi scratched his head." The demon case has only just begun. How can there be so much information to reveal?"”
Su Yuan said,"In that case, it's fine."”
"This matter happened to the guards of the Imperial City. I have already done my duty by bringing the demons to justice.”
"What happens next has nothing to do with me. Let them do whatever they want.”
"Sanguizi, pay more attention to the movements in the palace. Don't let anyone pour dirty water on me.”
San Guizi nodded." Master, don't worry. If there's any bad news from the imperial prison, this servant will report it immediately."”
"Cough, cough, cough!"
As the two of them spoke, Hong Xiu covered her face and coughed again. Her throat was really itchy and she could not hold it in.
"Hong Xiu, you haven't recovered yet?”
"I went to Red Shirt's place today. Red Shirt also caught a cold recently.”
"It's not that I want to criticize you, but you have to put on more clothes when it's cold.”
Su Yuan glanced at Hong Xiu." Go down and have a good rest. In a while, I'll call the imperial physician to prescribe you two medicines."”
"It's alright, Your Highness, you don't have to worry.”
"Go ahead."
"Yes."
......
Southern Division Celestial Prison.
The Third Prince Su Hu brought people to the imperial prison to interrogate the demons and obtain clues about them.
The guards guarding the demons quickly stood up to welcome him.
"Greetings, Third Prince!"
"Yes."
"Open the Heaven Prison. I want to see this demon.”
"Yes, sir!"
The guards opened the prison and each of them pulled an iron chain to pull the locked demons out.
Su Hu stepped forward and stood in front of the yaomo, carefully examining them.
The demon in front of him had both legs broken and had been trapped in the imperial prison for a long time. It looked dispirited.
"This leg!"
"Your Highness, this demon resisted arrest that day, and the Ninth Prince broke its legs to prevent it from escaping.”
"Yes." Su Hu walked around the yaomo twice.
"I heard that there are two demons. Is this the one who dug out the heart?”
"Yes, the other one is still hiding in the Imperial City. We are searching with all our might.”
Su Hu carefully examined the yaomo, but he didn't find any special evidence on them.
So he asked the demon tentatively," You can understand my words?”
The demon raised its head and looked at him with its strange eyes. Its eyes gradually revealed a fierce light.
Su Hu asked again," Who brought you into the city?”
"As long as you tell me, I will guarantee your safety and let you out of the city.”
The yaomo was still glaring at him with a murderous look.
The imperial prison guard said," Your Highness, we've already tried. This demon has low intelligence and cannot communicate. It only knows meaningless roars.”
Su Hu thought for a moment." If that's the case, we can only bring the suspicious person in front of it and determine the mastermind from the demon's reaction."”
Su Hu said," Unlock it. I want to lift it."”
Hearing this, the imperial prison guards looked at each other and hesitated.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Su Hu frowned.
The imperial prison guard had no choice but to reply," Your Highness, the Ninth Prince has already given the order. This demon can be interrogated and seen, but it must be imprisoned in the imperial prison! No one was allowed to take the demons away!”
"Oh?" Su Hu's eyes deepened." What if I insist on bringing it up?”
"This…"
The imperial prison guard was put in a difficult position.
"The Ninth Prince said that anyone who violates this order will be beheaded.”
"If we can't cut it down, we'll report it to the Ninth Prince. He'll personally come and kill those who don't obey the order.”
With that, the imperial prison guards lowered their heads, not daring to look at Su Hu.
The faces of Su Hu's henchmen also darkened.
The Ninth Prince's killing intent was so strong, and he was so awe-inspiring!
The atmosphere in the imperial prison was extremely strange.
The low air pressure continued to gather, and a storm seemed to be about to blow up in the prison.
At this moment, the Fifth Prince Su Zhe walked in from outside the imperial prison.
"Third brother, why make things difficult for them? They are just doing things for others.”Su Zhe said leisurely, sounding like he was joking.
Su Zhe's arrival immediately dispersed the oppressive atmosphere in the imperial prison.
Su Hu said," Are you here to investigate the demon case too?”
"Obviously."
