Lingzhou was happy, but also regretful about what happened before, so he wanted to cover Chu Xingchen's hands, but he forgot about the situation he was in.

Xiao Wang looked at his hand and his eyes flashed slightly, and a dark light flashed in Shen Cangzhu's eyes.

"What are you doing?" Chu Xingchen looked at Lingzhou inexplicably.

"I'm going to warm your hands. Didn't you just say it was cold?" Ling Zhou explained intuitively, enduring the danger of being killed.

"Is your Highness cold?" Xiao Wang immediately handed over the hand warmer, "It was my mistake."

"I feel much better after getting in the car." Although Chu Xingchen said this, she still thanked him and took the hand warmer. She would have to wear gloves next time she came out.

Lingzhou looked at his empty hands, glanced at Xiao Wang, and then lowered his head.

Shen Cangzhu looked at them with unclear meaning in his eyes.

Chu Xingchen returned to the East Palace. Late in the winter, he knew that Chu Xingchen had encountered such a thing. He was frightened for a while and said, "Fortunately, he was rescued. Otherwise, what would have happened if he was really kidnapped."

"Don't worry, Zhou Buyan and the others are following you." Chu Xingchen comforted.

"You can't be careless about that." Wan Dong said cautiously, "Your Highness, a noble girl was abducted more than ten years ago."

"My lady?"

"Yes, I don't know the specific situation. I only know that after the noble lady was found, she had been forced to give birth to a child and was about to be rented to a second person. Later, she brought the child back after being rescued. Yes, Your Highness should be more careful."

"I understand." Chu Xingchen nodded solemnly.

The next day, at Tingxuehonglou, the steward looked ugly and threw Yunque's bond of sale to him, "Go away while no one is around. If anyone asks you, don't admit that you stayed at Tingxuehonglou."

Tingxue Honglou became famous because they had a corrupt young master who was in charge and wanted to die. He looked at Yunque with extremely dissatisfied eyes.

The deed of sale that originally required a lot of ransom was thrown on the ground. Skylark picked it up and said, "Yes."

"Go quickly, don't let anyone see you." The steward looked sullenly and was about to let people spread the salt when two people suddenly came next to him, "Is Mr. Skylark here?"

The steward thought he was looking for trouble, so he immediately pointed at Yunque and said, "He is Yunque. He has nothing to do with our Tingxuehonglou."

The visitor laughed when he saw the body deed in Yunque's hand, "It's so good. I was originally worried that I wouldn't be able to redeem myself. In this case, Yunque... No, Mr. Lu Qiu, this is the letter of appointment for you. I hope you can Report to Dali Temple as soon as possible."

Yunque's real surname is Lu. He was born in autumn and named Lu Qiu. He knew that Lu Qiu was calling him, but he couldn't understand what they said.

What kind of appointment letter was it from Dali Temple? How could they know his name?

He didn't react, and the stewards and everyone watching were dumbfounded, "What? What do you mean?"

The visitor had a good temper and explained, "Master Lu Qiu has received a letter of appointment from Dali Temple."

The steward and everyone were in an uproar, seeing Lu Qiu regretting instantly, but Lu Qiu couldn't care about them. He hugged the baggage and held the appointment letter, feeling dizzy. After reporting at Dali Temple, he had a sense of reality and looked towards He picked up the two people who had been following him.

"How could this happen... may I ask who you two are?"

"The younger one's name is not worth mentioning, but he is from the First Palace of the East Palace. Her Royal Highness sent the younger one here because she said that talents like you should not be lost."

He bowed and said, "I'll take my leave now. I wish you a bright future, and I hope you will not disappoint the queen's expectations."

This was indeed Chu Xingchen's arrangement. He watched the trial at Dali Temple last night and found that they lacked a capable prosecutor like Lu Qiu, so he planned to let him go to Dali Temple.

Lu Qiu stood for a while and suddenly remembered Chu Xingchen and what she said last night. Only then did he know what her question meant, and he also realized that she was actually the princess.

No wonder they had such strange expressions that night when they said the concubine was here. It turned out that she was the concubine.

"In this life... I actually... met the princess?"

Lu Qiu's expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and looking like crying but not crying. He just said that he didn't have that fate. Why... He really didn't expect that she was a princess. After all, who would take her husband to visit the Red Mansion together?

?

Thinking back on it now, the young master who was with her must be Ling Shaoqing, because only Ling Shaoqing was born as a warrior.

There was another person who was also shocked in Dali Temple, and that was the gentleman who tried the case last night.

When his superior summoned him, he found out that yesterday he had interrogated the Crown Princess in person, and in the end the Crown Princess was still in the crowd watching him interrogate the case.

After hearing this, the gentleman broke into sweat and was frightened. He...he actually interrogated the Crown Princess?

Looking at his rich expression, the superior smiled and said, "His Highness complimented you, saying that the case trial in Dali Temple is indeed different. You have fallen into the favor of the princess."

"His Royal Highness thinks that the work done yesterday was good, and he said that he can be recruited to Dali Temple. People have already reported it."

Lu Qiu's report caused a small splash, but then calmness soon returned.

On the other hand, the old man's wife-renting case stirred up the whole body and involved many people. The teahouse was investigated and punished, and the old man rented it out to more than 20 people, and this did not include the direct long-term renting of Chu.

A woman from the Kingdom of Wu.

The old man and his minions followed the clues and arrested them all, and rescued nearly a hundred female victims, ranging in age.

This incident attracted a lot of attention, and they dealt with it quickly. The old man and his minions were executed without any accident. What is surprising is that the hundreds of buyers involved this time were all exiled, and if their families knew about it, they would be exiled together.

This was something that had not happened before. In the past, only the kidnapper would be executed and the buyer would not be taken care of. But this time, the buyer was also involved. After asking about it, I found that the queen was involved in the subsequent disposal.

Chu Xingchen did participate. The public service slogan "No buying and selling, no killing" also applies to the phenomenon of renting wives. Chu Xingchen felt that if only the old man and a few others were punished, then such a situation could never be banned.

As the news spread, some people applauded, some cursed, and some smelled a different smell.

Chu Xingchen ignored it. She then took a detailed look at Da Chu's current working conditions and discovered many problems.

From Dali Temple to the Ministry of Punishment to the lower counties, there are actually wuzhuo, but wuzhuo is a lowly status, has insufficient power, is not taken seriously, and has no right to speak.

This is obviously unreasonable. To solve a case, forensic doctors are crucial and can be said to be the most important link. They should be given sufficient responsibilities and rights.

Chu Xingchen wrote a serious note about this matter. Unexpectedly, he had a conflict with Shen Cangzhu for the first time because of this matter, and he did not support her actions.

"Your Highness's idea is good, but there are many things involved."

Shen Cangzhu felt that it was not worthwhile to offend so many people because of Wu Zuo. They would not accept that Wu Zuo had such rights. In the eyes of those people, this was letting Wu Zuo climb over their heads.

Chu Xingchen would basically listen to whatever suggestions Shen Cangzhu put forward in the past, but this time he rarely agreed, "I don't agree with Shen Zongjun's point of view. No matter what I want to do, it will definitely benefit some people and damage others."

If you consider these interests, you won’t have to do anything in the future.”

She is destined to do a lot of things that offend people in the future, and she cannot hold back just because of this. When she sees the disadvantages of this matter, she must solve it. If she thinks too much, she will not be able to do such a thing, let alone other things.

Shen Cangzhu frowned, "Your Highness, after weighing this matter..."

"There's no point in weighing everything." Chu Xingchen was a little disappointed for the first time.

Shen Cangzhu looked at Chu Xingchen's disappointed eyes and felt paralyzed, but did not say the next words.
