There were lush flowers and trees all around and the courtyard walls blocked their view. The two people talking in the corner didn't notice the Ministry of Justice official not far away.
After the red-clothed young man finished speaking, he turned around and headed towards Anyin Hall. Seeing that he was heading in his direction, the official from the Ministry of Justice immediately found a shady spot and hid himself.
The next moment, the maid hurriedly pulled the red-clothed young man back.
"Master, you can't go!" She hurriedly said. "His Highness is sick. If you go now and anger his health, what will we do?"
The red-clothed young man was so angry that he laughed.
"Anger him? I don't think so. If he has the energy to fool around with that vixen outside, I think his health is very good! "He said.
The maid hurriedly said, "Master, why are you saying this? Besides, the courtyard that the young man outside lives in might not have been bought by his Highness. "
The red-clothed young man sneered.
"His body was bought by his Highness, so where would he get the money to buy a courtyard? Besides, the courtyard in the center of Changle Lane is facing south. Without a few thousand taels of silver, how could he buy it? "
The maid was speechless.
The red-clothed young man seemed to be getting angrier and angrier as he spoke. His voice also became louder.
"I've always been in charge of the money in the estate. Tell me, the estate doesn't have any income, so where would his Highness get the money to buy a courtyard for that little vixen? Today, I have to find his Highness and ask him clearly. Otherwise, I might as well tell him to quickly sell me off. It's better than being in this muddle-headed situation … "
The maid hurriedly stopped him. The two of them pulled and pulled as they went straight into Anyin Hall.
After a long time, the Ministry of Justice official slowly walked out of the shadows.
He was so shocked that his hands were trembling.
He definitely didn't expect that he would run into such a big secret while doing a routine investigation.
So the money was embezzled by His Highness Prince Jing? He committed crimes and embezzled money from the emperor's Thousand Autumn Banquet because the concubines in the estate were fierce and embezzled money to support an outside concubine?
He didn't have the right to make a decision. After being shocked, he only knew that he had to return to the palace immediately and inform the emperor of this important matter.

Inside the Hidden Tranquility Hall, it was a scene of spring.
Seeing Gu Changyun leading the servant girls straight into the courtyard, Meng Qianshan was shocked. He hurriedly went forward to greet them, but didn't dare to stop them.
Although Madam Gu was usually domineering, she had never come to the Prince's courtyard.
Seeing his stupefied expression, Gu Changyun raised her eyebrows and smiled at him, "What's wrong, Meng Qianshan? Are you so happy to see me that you can't speak?"
Meng Qianshan had a bitter smile on his face as he greeted him.
"Mrs. Gu, what's the occasion today? Unfortunately, His Highness has just rested. If you need anything, this servant will inform His Highness on your behalf … "
He followed beside Gu Changyun and tried to stop him while trying to flatter him.
However, Gu Changyun glared at him and pushed him aside, walking straight to the main room in Jiang Suizhou.
"You still want to pretend that I didn't see that someone just happened to leave from here?"
As he spoke, he walked up the stone steps and pushed open the door to Jiang Suizhou's room.
Hearing the commotion at the door, Jiang Suizhou looked in that direction, only to see a ball of fiery red directly enter his room.
Jiang Suizhou was relieved.
He knew that this was Gu Changyun who came to inform him after the matter was settled.
He saw Gu Changyun meet his gaze. As he walked in, he gave him a flirtatious wink.
Jiang Suizhou was so jealous that the roots of his teeth fell out.
He glanced at Gu Changyun and was about to look away when he saw this person laugh and welcome him to the side of his bed.
"Your Highness won't blame this concubine for coming unannounced, will you?" He smiled.
Jiang Suizhou looked at him indifferently and let him act.
Gu Changyun, who had already bowed, stood up and sat down on the side of his bed.
"Your Highness, please don't blame me. This concubine hasn't seen Your Highness for a few days and was worried, so I came to visit you without permission." He said.
Jiang Suizhou said indifferently, "Are you done?"
Gu Changyun knew what he was asking.
He smiled and bumped his shoulder, "Your Highness still doesn't trust me?"
As he spoke, his gaze swept across the bedroom and paused on Huo Wujiu in the corner. He took back the rest of his words.
After all, there were other people in the room. If he wanted to say more, he had to be careful.
Following Gu Changyun's gaze, Jiang Suizhou also saw Huo Wujiu sitting there without saying a word.
Normally, the two of them would be like this when they were in the same room. His bedroom was extremely spacious. The two of them could each take a side and not disturb each other.
But at this moment, he felt that Huo Wujiu's strength was a little awkward.
As for what exactly was awkward … he couldn't tell.
He saw Gu Changyun, who was sitting on the side of his bed, look around. His natural disposition to tease cats and dogs appeared again.
He smiled, "Oh, this concubine's eyesight is bad. I didn't notice that Madam Huo was also here."
Jiang Suizhou watched as he stood up from his bed and walked towards Huo Wujiu.
Huo Wujiu raised his head and looked at Gu Changyun.
His gaze was heavy, and his cold emotions were hidden deep within the whirlpools in his eyes.
Gu Changyun didn't notice at all and stood still in front of him.
"It's been hard for this concubine's younger brother to serve Your Highness." He said with a smile.
Huo Wujiu didn't say a word.
But in the next moment, Gu Changyun stretched out his hand.
He took the book in Huo Wujiu's hand.
"Oh, what book is Madam Huo reading?" Gu Changyun asked with a smile as he tried to take the book from Huo Wujiu's hand.
Once, twice.
The book didn't move at all.
Gu Changyun blinked and looked at Huo Wujiu.
He saw the man in the wheelchair slowly raise his eyes. His dark eyes quietly fell on his face.
The smile on Gu Changyun's face froze involuntarily, and his hand gently let go of the book. When he retracted his hand, he subconsciously put his hands behind his back.
For a moment, Gu Changyun had an inexplicable guess.
It seemed that if Jiang Suizhou wasn't watching him from behind, the man in front of him would break his neck.
This was a ferocious beast waiting to strike. The only thing holding him back was the gaze from Jiang Suizhou behind him.
For the first time, Gu Changyun clearly realized that he had gone too far and touched someone he shouldn't have.
He froze on the spot and didn't move.
At this moment, Jiang Suizhou's cold voice sounded.
"This Prince is fine. If you're free, you can go back." He said lightly.
Gu Changyun gradually came back to his senses, and he felt a layer of cold sweat on his back.
He was about to take a step back when he heard a soft sound.
He looked up and saw the book fall lightly on the table beside him. The man sitting in front of him lowered his eyes, pressed the wheelchair with one hand, turned it slightly, and went straight out.
Gu Changyun didn't withdraw his gaze until the sound of the wheelchair gradually faded away.
He saw Jiang Suizhou, who was sitting on the bed, looking at him disapprovingly.
"If you're free, why did you provoke him?" Jiang Suizhou said in a low voice.
Gu Changyun returned to the bed and sat down, his expression somewhat thoughtful.
Jiang Suizhou was far away, so he didn't see the exchange of glances between the two people. He saw Gu Changyun slowly sit down on the bed, his gaze somewhat empty.
Jiang Suizhou raised his hand and pointed at him.
"If you provoke him, this Prince won't be responsible for saving you." Jiang Suizhou gritted his teeth.
Gu Changyun shook his head.
"This subordinate feels that Huo Wujiu wasn't provoked by this subordinate." Gu Changyun said in a low voice.
Jiang Suizhou frowned. "What?"
Gu Changyun raised his eyes and looked directly at him.
"It doesn't seem like it." He said. "Madam Huo isn't so petty. Usually, if this subordinate provokes him a little, as long as I don't touch him, he will treat this subordinate as if this subordinate doesn't exist."
Jiang Suizhou glanced at him.
He saw Gu Changyun looking at him and suddenly breaking into a smile.
"Today, he seems like …" He paused.
"Like he's jealous of his subordinate."
Jiang Suizhou was stunned.
In the next moment, he raised his hand mercilessly and slapped Gu Changyun on the head.
"You're crazy." He said.

After this day, gradually, some doctors came to Jiang Suizhou's residence one after another.
Jiang Suizhou didn't need to investigate the abilities of these people. Everything was left to Gu Changyun. Some of the doctors who didn't have any talent and came for fame and fortune were all chased out of the residence by Gu Changyun. There were also some who weren't good at treating disabled and injured people. He also found an excuse to ask them to leave.
Over the next few days, Jiang Suizhou met a few of them one after another. After testing them, they didn't have any real ability.
He also knew that the doctors around Lin 'an, as long as they had some ability, had all rushed to the Imperial Academy of Medicine. If he really wanted to find a good doctor, he would have to wait a little longer and see the results of the people he sent out to investigate.
Gradually, the flowers and trees outside the window gradually withered and turned into lush green leaves.
Every two days, Gu Changyun would report the results of the investigation to Jiang Suizhou. In the past few days, the news he sent gradually became more and more complaining. He said that there was a doctor who came to him on his own. He claimed that Hua Tuo was alive and could cure all diseases. He was like a charlatan.
Just looking at the tall and strong disciple behind him, he felt that he wasn't reliable.
However, this person seemed to have some skill in deceiving people. Even if Gu Changyun wanted to expose him, after a few days, he couldn't find any mistakes. He just listened to this person's extravagant rhetoric and insisted on meeting his master.
Gu Changyun told Jiang Suizhou that he couldn't handle it and asked him to meet him. It would be best if he could drive this charlatan away quickly so that he could have some peace and quiet.
Jiang Suizhou felt that it was a little interesting. He even wanted to see what this charlatan looked like with his own eyes.
Therefore, he agreed. Early the next morning, someone brought the doctor who came to him on his own to his room.
It was an old man with gray hair and a beard who looked to be in his sixties.
Because he received Gu Changyun's news in advance, Jiang Suizhou couldn't help but look behind the old man.
He saw that the disciple behind him was in his twenties. He was very tall and had broad shoulders. He had a strong appearance and his facial features were straight and hard. He didn't look like a medical student, but more like a soldier.
Jiang Suizhou felt that it was funny and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
The two people knelt in front of him and bowed. Jiang Suizhou casually waved his hand to let them get up and asked indifferently.
"I heard from Changyun that you have the ability to cure all diseases?" He lazily picked up his teacup and said indifferently. "You should know that this prince doesn't like to be deceived."
As he spoke, he glanced at the two people. His gaze swept and he saw that the disciple behind the old doctor was looking back, as if he was looking at Huo Wujiu.
Jiang Suizhou frowned: "What are you looking at?"
The disciple hurriedly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head, as if he was suddenly reprimanded and scared.
Jiang Suizhou's frown deepened.
The moment that person quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head, he seemed to see a touch of water.
It was a look that only a person would have when they were holding back tears and holding back their tears.
