Time is very tight, but Prime Minister Zhao requires that the Jingnan Palace has all three matchmakers and six hires. His daughter must not marry a poor man.
Princess Nankang readily agreed to these requests.
In fact, there is no need to mention Zhao Xiang at all. Princess Nankang will never let her son's wedding banquet be shabby. It will definitely be ten times more glorious than when Xie Boting married Su Tang.
After the marriage was finalized, Jingnan Palace became busy, but this busyness had nothing to do with Jingmo Xuan.
Xie Boting had not recovered from his typhoid fever, so he still had to take a medicinal bath. That evening, after Xie Boting returned to the study after taking a medicinal bath, Chen Qing jumped out of the window and handed over a key, "Sir, the key is ready."
Xie Boting took the key. From the shape of the key, he could tell that the lock was unusual, and the things locked inside were also unusual.
Chen Qing said, "Do you want to send it to Mr. Su?"
Uncle Li almost died for this key. If the prince gives the key to Mr. Su, he will definitely win the favor of his father-in-law.
This is also the reason why Chen Qing sent Uncle Li back to Prince Xin's Mansion, but brought Ni Ba Yin back.
Xie Boting turned the key in his hand and said, "We are not sure yet that this key will work. Go to the Ministry of Punishments and see if this key can open the lock."
Chen Qing, "..."
Prince, are you too cautious?
Even if the key doesn't work, the thought alone is precious.
Chen Qing felt that Xie Boting was cautious on the one hand, but more importantly, he wanted to know Mr. Su's purpose of entering the Ministry of Justice. He asked directly. The prince could not ask, and Mr. Su might not say. Now that the key is in the hands of the prince, just open the lock.
Got it.
Chen Qing took the order and left with the key.
The Criminal Department is in charge of major cases of murder and arson. The most important thing in it is the file. To those who are related to the case, the file is as valuable as gold. To those who are not related to the case, it is just a waste of paper.
When I was making toilet paper, I also disliked the many words on it.
Therefore, there were not that many people guarding the file room in the Ministry of Punishment. In addition, it was late at night and the office keeper was napping. Chen Qing could enter and exit freely. However, the file room was too big and it was difficult to find the lock.
Besides, Su Tang started to feel sleepy when it was time to go to bed, but Xie Boting didn't come back, so she wondered, was this guy so absorbed in reading that he didn't even sleep?
Su Tang got off the couch, put on her shoes and went to the study to find Xie Boting.
I just walked to the door of the study and was about to knock on the door when Chen Qing's voice came from the study, "Sir, the key can open the lock."
Su Tang lowered his raised hand, ready to listen to what they were saying.
When Chen Qing made the report, he put the key on the desk. Xie Boting asked, "What major case is this key locked for?"
Chen Qing replied, "The box contains the files on the collusion and treason case of the Zhenguo Duke's office sixteen years ago."
Xie Boting guessed that Su Hongshan went to the Criminal Department for files, but he did not expect that the case he wanted to investigate turned out to be a case at the Zhenguo Palace sixteen years ago. This chapter has been completed!
