C233 Can you not get used to me too much

Sensing Yan Yuan's aura and smell, she wasn't sleepy at all, and the sadness and reluctance to part with him was also slowly eroding her heart.

"Yan Yuan."

She lowered her eyes and called to him in a low voice.

"Hmm?"

"Can you …" "Can you not spoil me too much?"

I feel like I can't leave, I can't leave.

Her eyes uncontrollably turned sour once again.

Yan Yuan's body visibly stiffened a bit as his fingertips brushed against her soft hair. He remained silent for a good while before sighing.

"You're not used to being an imperial concubine, but are you going to leave it for others to get used to?"

With that sentence, the destructive force pierced into Liu Ruo Qing's heart, causing her to tremble from the pain.

"But it won't be for long."

"Then let's wait and see."

Yan Yuan's voice revealed deep helplessness and loneliness.

The next day.

Because Liu Qian Xun didn't know where he had gone to, he didn't hurriedly go to find him. Instead, he followed Yan Yuan to the Zhixian's yamen.

"This official pays his respect to Your Highness."

When Zhuang Qing heard that Yan Yuan had come, he trembled in fear every single day.

She came out to meet Yan Yuan with fear and trepidation, her expression trembling with fear.

His gaze landed on the girl that had appeared beside Yan Yuan, and his heart was perturbed, "May I ask who this lady is?"

He didn't even dare to lightly offend the people who stood beside Yan Yuan; he might even be a big shot that he couldn't afford to offend.

"Princess."

Before Liu Ruo Qing could speak, Yan Yuan had already rushed in front of her and caught up with her words.

Zhuang Qing's eyes widened and he immediately bowed, "This official greets Crown Princess Jing."

It was so close, so close. Fortunately, he had asked a question. Otherwise, if he had neglected this young mistress, the Prince would have to vent his anger on him again.

As a daughter, she didn't stay in the palace, but when the prince went out to work, she could always stay by his side, which was obviously permitted by him.

Without the prince's permission, how could she dare to follow him to a county magistrate's office? This wasn't a place a woman should come to.

"Master Zhuang, there is no need to be so courteous."

Liu Ruo Qing secretly laughed in his heart, it was truly a cowardly county magistrate. No wonder even Yan Qi had committed such a heinous crime that it had spread throughout the entire Huaxi Town, causing him to not dare to report it to the higher ups.

If it wasn't for the death of a Turkic, he wouldn't dare to take responsibility for it. He probably wouldn't have brought this case to the Ministry of Justice.

What an incompetent blind man.

Liu Ruo Qing cursed in her heart in a low voice.

After the Yan Yuan duo entered, Zhuang Qing followed closely behind.

"My lord, I wonder what orders do you have for me today?"

When Zhuang Qing was speaking, he used words very carefully, afraid that if he used the wrong word, it would make Prince Jing, the god, unhappy.

"Send an order to this king, ask Yan Qi to come see this king immediately."

Zhuang Qing's face changed, he raised his head and looked at Yan Yuan's disapproving expression, and his heart trembled, "Your Highness, you … You already know about it? "

He was trembling with fear in his eyes.

"If I don't even have this little bit of ability, I'll give the world of the Yan family to you people."

Yan Yuan's face darkened. The words that came out immediately made Zhuang Qing kneel down in fear, "This official is terrified, this official is terrified …"

Yan Yuan was too lazy to waste his breath with him, he continued to instruct: "The companion of the deceased, where is he now?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, they are staying at the Bright Inn at the end of the street."

"Send someone to get them here."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Zhuang Qing did not dare to disobey, although he had already written down their statements together with the coroner's autopsy report, but, since the King wanted to ask again, how could he possibly object?

He called the constable to go call people from the tavern, while he continued to stay at the yamen, trembling as he waited for Yan Yuan's orders.

That look was truly a bit funny.

Seeing him like this, Liu Ruo Qing was truly pitiful.

She had no choice but to keep a straight face wherever she went with the ice cube.

In fact, there seemed to be a few people who were not afraid of this lord.

"Your Highness, I think the courtyard of the County Magistrate's Order is quite beautiful. In any case, there's no one here right now, so why don't you accompany me for a stroll?"

Liu Ruo Qing suggested as her dark and sunken expression eased up somewhat.

"You want to go and take a look?"

"Yes."

"Alright."

Seeing Yan Yuan stand up, Zhuang Qing immediately went forward to welcome him, "This official will lead the way for Your Highness."

"No need, County Magistrate Zhuang, you are busy with official business, you don't need to call us. I will walk around with the Prince."

She casually grabbed Yan Yuan's arm and shook it.

Yan Yuan understood, turned his head towards County Governor Zhuang and said, "You just need to complete the task this duke has given you, this duke will walk around with wangfei."

"Yes, yes. This official will take his leave."

Once it was out of Yan Yuan's line of sight, Zhuang Qing obviously heaved a sigh of relief. The pressure of Prince Jing was simply too strong.

"That official is really afraid of you. If I don't help him out, he'll probably stand in front of you and be scared to death if you don't beat him to death."

Yan Yuan raised his eyebrows, and looked at the strange expression in her eyes. He extended his hand to pinch her cheeks and said: "Do you think that everyone is like you, daring to provoke me at any moment?"

"Where did I get that?"

Liu Ruo Qing's eyes flickered as she retorted in a low voice.

In the past, she was young and ignorant, and didn't know how to behave. She had brought all the modern ideas of equality between men and women to this place, but she had forgotten that he was a dignified King Jing and that she was just a commoner.

"Still not admitting it."

Yan Yuan unhappily poked her head, a smile could be seen in his eyes, "Come, accompany this king to the courtyard."

Looking at the white plum blossom blooming in the garden, Liu Ruo Qing laughed as if she was standing proudly under the cold wind: "This county magistrate is somewhat elegant, and his hobby does not match his looks."

Liu Ruo Qing raised her eyebrows and smiled at Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan nodded his head, looking somewhat absent-minded.

"Thinking about this case?"

Liu Ruo Qing asked, as if she was unwilling to see him frown.

Yan Yuan nodded, and said: "A few days ago, I personally saw the corpse of the Turkic. His life was injured on his neck, and if he lost too much blood, he would die. "It's not too different from the autopsy report that was presented."

"And then."

"Other than the fatal wounds, there are also a few bruises on the body. They are caused by fists and feet, but there are no cuts or cuts. Furthermore, there are not many bruises, as if the neck was cut open after a simple fight."

As he said that, he looked at Liu Ruo Qing. "This king has never believed in the words of the gods and ghosts.

"Mm, that's right. If it's really ghosts killing people, there's no need to go through all this trouble."

"Yes." Liu Ruo Qing agreed and nodded, then turned to look at Yan Yuan, "Since there's a wound on the deceased's body, there must have been sounds of fighting at that time, how could his companions not have heard it? Furthermore, at that time, we were also living next door, and only heard his last shout, no other sound."
