C134

It was very obvious that the Grand Princess Zhu had made sufficient preparations in her case. The evidence was sufficient, and Ji Yunkai was simply unable to seek justice for herself.

Ji Yunkai was naturally aware of this point. In the face of the Grand Princess's overbearing attitude, Ji Yunkai did not try to defend herself. All she asked was, "Grand Princess, who are you to Madam Zhu?"

Similarly, if the Grand Princess was not one of Madam Zhu's family members, she had no right to accuse Ji Yunkai.

"This Princess is not family to Madam Zhu. Madam Zhu died in This Princess' mansion. This Princess is here to report the case." The Grand Princess was quite clever, she immediately changed the complaint to a report.

Reporting a crime was not limited by identity. If there was a murder, anyone could report it to the government.

"Since you're reporting a case, I'll have to wait until the authorities accept it. The authorities have yet to accept it and haven't said that I am a suspect. What qualifications does the Ministry of Justice have to try me?" Ji Yunkai stood up and looked at Feng Zhao, obviously not intending to stay any longer.

Feng Zhao was at a loss for words. Could he tell Ji Yunkai that he forgot to do this?

However, he had forgotten, and Ji Yunkai did not ask him, "Lord Feng, is this case being handled directly by the Ministry of Justice? I remember that if one reports a case, it should be handled by the Shuntian Prefecture.

The government had its own rules and regulations. Although Feng Zhao came from the Feng Family, which was the head of the Four Great Families, he could not break those rules.

"According to what the Princess Consort said, this case should be handled by the Shuntian Prefecture. I have no right to interfere." Having his face slapped in public, Feng Zhao felt both pain and grievance.

Ever since Prince Yanbei returned to the capital, it was not easy for him to be the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

"Since Lord Feng has no authority, I will return to the estate and wait for Shuntian Prefecture to open its doors." Ji Yunkai turned her head to look at Xiao Jiu'an, and Xiao Jiu'an stood up as well and said, "It's getting late, let's go."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ji Yunkai bent her knees with a submissive look, but…

Everyone present saw that it was Ji Yunkai who glanced at Xiao Jiu'an, and only then did Xiao Jiu'an stand up. It was Xiao Jiu'an who had coordinated with Ji Yunkai.

"Prince Yanbei is actually under the control of a wife? I can't believe what I saw." The spectators thought that they would be able to see the commotion, but who would have thought that they would not see it, they instead saw the love between Prince Yanbei and his wife.

"You... you guys …" Seeing that Ji Yunkai and Xiao Jiu'an had left their seats, the Grand Princess immediately stood up, but she did not know how to stop them.

The Grand Princess could not do anything to Ji Yunkai and Xiao Jiu'an, so she vented her anger on Feng Zhao, "Lord Feng, is this the fair trial that you mentioned?"

"This Official follows the rules of this case. If the Grand Princess is dissatisfied, she can go to the Shuntian Prefecture to file a complaint." The Grand Princess had the face to be angry? He did not even blame the Grand Princess for playing around with him.

The Grand Princess was rendered speechless by Feng Zhao, and she could only say angrily, "You…. Fine, you guys just wait and see, right? This Princess will go and report this now!"

Poor Shuntian Prefecture, he would remember a good thing about him.

The Grand Princess was truly unwilling to give up. After leaving the Ministry of Justice, she directly went to the Shuntian Prefecture to report the case. However, upon reporting the case, Madam Zhu's husband and children came to clarify the situation. That her death was caused by suicide and not by someone poisoning her.

To prove that what they said was true, Lord Zhu even took out Madam Zhu's suicide note and proof that she bought poisonous medicinal ingredients.

Furthermore, they repeatedly declared that they did not wish to report her death to the government. They only wanted to bring back her body so that she could be buried.

Hearing Lord Zhu's and his family's words, the Grand Princess was so angry that she almost vomited blood. "Do you know what you're doing?"

The Zhu Family members had great courage. They dared to turn the tables before the battle was won. Aren't they afraid that she would kill them?

"Grand Princess, This Official knows what he is doing. This Official does not wish to frame a good person. I only wish for Madam to be buried as soon as possible." Of course, the Zhu Family members were afraid, but they were even more afraid of Prince Yanbei.

With Prince Yanbei protecting them, the Grand Princess would not be able to do anything to them. However, if Prince Yanbei wanted to touch them, the Grand Princess would not be able to protect them from him.

"Well done!" The Grand Princess was angered to the point that her face turned green. She did not even look at the Shuntian Prefecture before she left.

The Zhu family did not make a complaint, and they even took out a pile of evidence to prove that Madam Zhu committed suicide by taking poison. What else could the Grand Princess do?

Thus, the matter of the Grand Princess reporting Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai was let go just like that. In the eyes of many, it was just a joke, but no one dared to laugh.

Ji Yunkai was originally waiting for the Shuntian Prefecture to summon her, but after waiting for half a day, she did not see any officials from Shuntian Prefecture.

After finding out what happened, Ji Yunkai did not know whether to laugh or cry. She found an opportunity and asked Xiao Jiu'an for confirmation, "My Prince, was the Zhu Family arranged by you?"

"Yes." If there was no one to arrange it and if there was no one to support the Zhu Family, how would the Zhu Family dare to go against the Grand Princess?

One had to know that the person standing behind the Grand Princess was the Emperor.

In all of Revelation, the only person who would dare to oppose the Emperor was Xiao Jiu'an!

"I've troubled Your Highness." Although Ji Yunkai could take care of it herself, when Xiao Jiu'an made his move, Ji Yunkai did not mind remembering.

She did not need to do everything herself, nor did she have to worry about it.

"There won't be the next time!" In just a few short days, how many terrible things had he tidied up for Ji Yunkai?

Women were indeed troublesome, and Ji Yunkai was no exception.

"Yes, Your Highness." Ji Yunkai smiled bitterly but silently agreed.

As to not cause more trouble, Ji Yunkai stayed in her courtyard and played with her plants all day.

To dispel Xiao Jiu'an's suspicions, Ji Yunkai only used her special ability to nourish a portion of the replanted plants. As a result, a third of the replanted plants died this time. Although the remaining two-thirds did not die, they were not as bright as before.

Regarding this, Ji Yunkai was very satisfied.

Although this was still a little heaven-defying for Prince Yanbei's Mansion, there was a limit to everything. She had raised all the plants well, how could she instantly kill them?

In this period, Ji Yunkai felt that fewer people were watching her and her plants.

She believed that Xiao Jiu'an would no longer doubt her after a while. After all, she had never hurt anyone before...
