On the east side of the river, Su Zixuan was still waiting for the results of the Su Clan's investigation. On the other side, Chu Yixuan was also starting to take action.

The usually carefree Prince Jin began to steadily ascend to the throne. This really made everyone widen their eyes. However, after what happened last year, no one thought about not joining the ranks. They all thought about how long the Jin Emperor could last.

But this time, they were at a loss. Prince Jin had persisted for more than half a month.

It turned out that ever since Su Zixuan left for Jiangnan, Chu Yixuan had felt that it was rather boring. He might as well go to the imperial court and play. After all, no one had asked him to do anything.

More importantly, it was also good to show off to others every day.

But he himself had been dissected more often.

For example, the one in front of him, Jia He Princess. This was the fourth time he had met her this month.

The palace wasn't very big, because every time a person walked down the road, they had to pass by. Even if it wasn't small, it still took them half an hour to walk from the empress dowager's palace to the throne room.

If they were to meet each other in the same place every time, then that would be impossible. Why hadn't she seen Jia He and the princess greet the other 'cousin'?

"Cousin, do you want to visit the empress dowager's palace today?" No matter how many glances the man in front of her took, Jia He's face was flushed red to the ears.

"Princess's heart, but this prince still has other matters to attend to. Next time, I should go visit Esteemed Empress Dowager." Chu Yixuan really didn't want to deal with Princess Jia He, but there were some people who were like sugar canes and couldn't get rid of them.

"Cousin is always busy no matter what." "Chu Yixuan!" Princess Jia He pursed her lips and raised her delicate and beautiful face to Chu Yixuan, revealing a pitiful expression. The empress dowager has already missed your cousin, so can't your cousin go visit her? "

Jia He was still slowly groping for Chu Yixuan. After all, she didn't have a system to teleport without her Goldfinger.

As for the guide, he could only rely on himself to slowly test it out.

For example, when she had acted arrogantly before, she had been met with Chu Yixuan's frown and appeared to be weak. However, this time, Chu Yixuan hadn't even been able to look him in the eye.

At the right time, it revealed the young girl's daintiness and cuteness, as well as her filial piety.

Weren't all men used to this? Besides, the relationship between the male lord and the empress dowager was very cold, and they didn't get the slightest bit of support from the empress dowager.

But if he could make their relationship better, then the man would feel that he had helped her, and the Empress would be safer as her patron.

Jia He thought complacently that she should at least take a good look at him. She was confident about her own appearance. She had acted repeatedly in the mirror so she wouldn't be seen through.

But Chu Yixuan wasn't an ordinary person. So what if the empress dowager thought of him? Was he really going to go?

How did his mufei die? Was the empress the only murderer in the entire palace?

If not for the Empress Dowager's instructions, would a wife dare to directly go against her husband's wishes and kill the woman he liked?

Chu Yixuan sneered. The woman in front of him was the same as always. If he still couldn't tell that she was trying to attract his attention, then he should have just waited patiently for someone to kill him instead of thinking about the throne.

"Since Princess Jia He was kind enough, she should have served the empress dowager well instead of coming here to act out a filial act on her own and bring Ben Wang along with her."

The undisguised ridicule in Chu Yixuan's words shocked Jia He.

Now that the warm spring was almost over, the weather was rather comfortable. It was reasonable to say that the weather wouldn't feel any cold, but Chu Yixuan's words had indeed made Jia He and Princess Hua-Yang quiver as goosebumps rose all over their bodies.

Chu Yixuan ignored the stunned Jia He and left in large strides.

On the way out of the throne room, many people were watching this scene. One of them was Chu Yinan, he had a playful expression on his face as he watched this scene and felt it to be interesting.

"..."

As for Jiang Dong, Su Zixuan had to wait for a few days before finally getting a piece of news.

"You said that this Manager Wu has made a trip to Lushan County recently?" Su Zixuan's brows were tightly knitted.

River County was close to Luling County, which was also very close to the salt field.

A few days ago, this Shopkeeper Wu had urged Liu Xian to sell his salt by accident, and now, he was on a trip to Lushan County.

"What exactly did you do?" Su Zixuan looked at Su Hui with doubt in her eyes.

"Nothing else except to pay a visit to the shopkeeper of Lushan County," Su Hui replied. "It's because he didn't do anything that makes him suspicious."

"It's not that easy to pass the salt trial. It would be weird if you only made a trip to Lushan County."

"Shopkeeper Chen of Lu Jiang Prefecture is a righteous man. A few years ago, he received kindness from the Old Master, and everyone knows that. "So …"

Su Zixuan continued, "So it can't be that we're trying to persuade Shopkeeper Chen. We can only assume that there's something else we need to do in River County. It's just that we've hidden it well, and we can't find it."

If he had discovered this earlier, it would be impossible for him to only know that something was amiss right now, but he would not have been able to make a mistake.

Su Zixuan was silent as a thought vaguely appeared in his mind.
