Jun Yuqi ordered another investigation, and the people below quickly found clues. All the doubts pointed to the same person - Yu Shan, the deputy general under Huo Zheng.

    This was something Jun Yuqi had never expected. Although he didn't know why Yu Shan did this, it was an opportunity for him to win over Huo Zheng.

    Yu Shan was a man under Huo Zheng. Even Huo Zheng could not escape responsibility for committing such a serious crime. If he could mediate and help Huo Zheng get rid of the crime, wouldn't this person's heart be easily won over?

    But Jun Yuqi thought again. With Huo Zheng's temper, he was afraid that someone would hate it most. After considering again and again, Jun Yuqi decided to come up with a roundabout way to save the country.

    ...

    After Yu Tao left Huo Zheng, she fell into panic. She didn't want to make the situation so serious. It was just a moment of jealousy. She thought that if Jun Yan died, Huo Zheng would no longer miss her.

    I don't know what devil had possessed her mind, making her do such a thing on impulse. She didn't have any careful plans and arrangements at all. If Jun Yan had any accident, let alone being with Huo Zheng, it was unknown whether she could keep her life.

    Yu Tao had never been so eager for Jun Yan to be alive and well. The most urgent thing was to exonerate herself and find a scapegoat!

    She didn't know that Jun Yuqi had already found out about her, and she was full of hope that as long as she put forward a scapegoat, she would be able to get away with it.

    Soon, under the vigorous search of the Fourth Prince, the mastermind behind the scenes was finally caught.

    It turned out that the palace servant who delivered the charcoal was greedy for money and wanted to steal a few pieces to sell, but was afraid that the amount of charcoal was less and he would be discovered, so he used inferior charcoal, trying to pass it off as real, but who knew that it caused the princess to have a seizure.

    The audacious dog slave was naturally dragged out and beaten to death on the spot.

    "If anyone dares to steal again, this dog slave will serve as a lesson for him!" Jun Yuqi sat in the main seat, his usually gentle face now filled with cold murderous aura, as if this was his original appearance.

    Huo Zheng looked at the stern Fourth Prince in the main seat, his eyes slightly deep, his keen intuition told him that it was not that simple.

    Yu Tao stood behind Huo Zheng, lowering her eyebrows and looking submissive, as if everything had nothing to do with her, just watching the eyes and the nose and the nose watching the heart.

    Just at this moment, a servant announced, "Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived--"

    As soon as the voice fell, the hearts of everyone present were in suspense--

    why did she come?

    Huo Zheng stood up first, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Greetings to Your Highness, Your Highness is in good health."

    Yu Tao knelt down, Jun Yan's arrival made her feel a little guilty.

    "Why are you here at this time, Ninth Sister? Sit down quickly. You are weak and you just suffered a great disaster. You should have a good rest. Your brother is here to vent your anger for you. Don't worry." Jun Yuqi showed concern on his face. He stood up and walked towards Jun Yan. He helped Jun Yan, who was about to kneel down, and seemed to be very distressed for this beauty. Jun Yan's

    face was pale. Facing her brother's concern, she forced a faint smile. She frowned slightly and glanced at the palace servant who was dragged away outside. She seemed a little hesitant. After hesitating for a while, she spoke softly: "Brother, Yan'er came here to ask you to release the servant who made the mistake."

    "What did you say?" Jun Yuqi's voice rose involuntarily in surprise, and his brows immediately frowned, "What do you mean, Ninth Princess? This dog slave almost killed you for a mere petty profit! It would be no exaggeration to cut him into pieces. There is no reason to let him go!"

    Jun Yan had expected him to say this. He covered his chest with one hand. His weak appearance was heartbreaking. Huo Zheng could not sit still on the spot and suddenly said, "Your Highness the Princess has not recovered from a serious illness. You should rest more. Don't ruin your body for these irrelevant people."

    Huo Zheng's words were already quite restrained. God knows when he saw the shaky and fragile body of his sweetheart, his whole heart tightened. He was angry that she didn't rest well and ran around, and he was even more angry that he couldn't even give her a simple hug in such an occasion.
