Tsui Hee hurried out of the herb garden.
She bumped into Luo Yichen, who was rushing back.
"What took you so long? How was it? Where's the Royal Highness? "
Tsui Hee asked anxiously, but Luo Yichen's expression wasn't good.
His expression was heavy, and Wei Ziyao, who was sitting in the courtyard, stood up.
"What's wrong?"
"Miss, today was the first day the Royal Highness took office, and they took on a case."
"What case?" Wei Ziyao had a bad feeling.
"The young master of the Wei family, Wei Shuo … assassinated a rank 3 official. He's been arrested by the Six Fan School and is in jail."
"Who did he kill?" Wei Ziyao frowned. Although Wei Shuo was a spoiled brat, he definitely wouldn't kill people. Moreover, he had improved recently, so how could he do such a thing?
"The one who died was the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Jiacai."
As expected, Wei Ziyao was right. She had guessed that it was Wang Jiacai.
This person was the one who had promised to compete with her in the Imperial Court using the Humble Class Disciple Competition.
At this time, he was dead, and Wei Shuo was the biggest suspect.
"Let's go! To the Ministry of Justice. "
"Miss, you should think of a way to protect the young master. I heard from the brothers of the Six Fan School that he was arrested and refused to confess. They must have used torture on him. You …"
"If he has the ability to go in, then let him suffer!" Wei Ziyao gritted her teeth and walked out.
Once this case was out, Ki Chien-chul and Wei Ziyao were pushed to the forefront.
If Ki Chien-chul wasn't careful, he would be accused of corruption and was unfit to be the minister of the Ministry of Justice.
However, if he really dealt with it impartially, he would offend the entire Wei family.
Now, the person who couldn't back down was Ki Chien-chul!
Wei Ziyao rushed to the Ministry of Justice. The guards came forward to stop her, but after seeing that it was her, they hesitated and let her in.
There was no one in the courtroom at the moment. They should be at the back of the court.
It was the place where they usually lived or worked.
He went to the back of the yamen. Sure enough, it was much more lively than the courtroom.
There were people from Six Doors, the coroner, and Ki Chien-chul standing there with a frown on his face.
Because Wei Ziyao woke up late this morning, she didn't see him in his official uniform.
Now that she looked at him, he was even more handsome than when he was wearing the Royal Highness court robes. Indeed, men who were serious about their careers were the most handsome.
But now, she wasn't in the mood to appreciate it.
When Wei Ziyao came in, no one announced her arrival, so they didn't notice her.
The coroner sighed.
"Royal Highness, your humble servant has checked many times. Lord Wang did indeed die from this scimitar. The wound was not clean enough, and there was a struggle. During the struggle, the tip of the scimitar injured the Wei family's young master. These are all symptoms, and more than one witness saw the young master escape from Lord Wang's room. This, this humble servant cannot change the facts no matter how much I investigate."
The coroner was of a lowly background and was even worse than the average poor person.
Therefore, when facing Ki Chien-chul, he was even more humble and careful when speaking to him.
However, after a day of torment, he could remember all the characteristics of the corpse, but this King of Hell still refused to let him go.
