Daughter of aristocratic family
Chapter 223 Jing
When word spread that Prince Zuocheng's eldest son had died at birth, Yun Hao returned to Beijing, covered with dust.
He asked his men to take the imperial doctor to the prison. He changed his clothes and entered the palace to meet the saint.
"I'm back. It's been a hard journey." The emperor said.
Yun Hao lowered his head slightly and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I will not hesitate to do anything for Your Majesty."
"How is the investigation going?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.
Yun Hao replied: "After interrogation, the imperial doctor admitted that he had tampered with the second princess's medicine."
The emperor's expression instantly became solemn, "Why did he do this?"
"The imperial doctor said that he was ordered by others." Yun Hao had already expected this result.
A trace of anger and confusion flashed in the emperor's eyes, "Who ordered it?"
"He never met the man. He only received a letter. The man threatened the lives of his family members to force him to do this."
"The person behind the scenes is still not found." The emperor frowned, "Do you have anyone to suspect?"
"I will not doubt anyone without evidence." Yun Hao's voice revealed calmness and calmness, "But I will try my best to investigate and get to the bottom of this matter."
The emperor looked at him with admiration in his eyes and said: "Jingyao, I have always recognized your ability. Lian believes that you will be able to find the truth."
"I will live up to your Majesty's expectations." Yun Hao bowed and said.
The emperor nodded, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, "This matter involves a lot of things. I allow you to act cheaply. If anyone dares to obstruct it, you can take it away."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." There was a flash of joy in Yun Hao's lowered eyes.
"If there is any progress, please report it to me immediately." The emperor added.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Yun Hao saluted, "I take my leave."
After coming out of the palace, Yun Hao went to visit Zhao Wangshu. He passed by a stall selling sugar-roasted chestnuts and bought a pack.
When we arrived at Zhao's house, we first went to visit Mrs. Zhao Cui and Mrs. Zhao Li.
"Jingyao is back. It's been a hard journey. Did the official business go smoothly?" Zhao Cui asked with a loving smile.
Yun Hao replied respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, grandma. The official business went smoothly."
"That's good." Ms. Zhao Cui smiled, "It snowed heavily a few days ago, and I was worried that you would be stuck on the road."
Yun Hao smiled and said: "I didn't encounter any big obstacles on the way, I just walked a little slower."
"It's good that it didn't delay things." Mrs. Zhao Cui said with a smile.
"Yue'er is in the yard, go." Zhao Li said.
"Then I'll go in first." Yun Hao stood up and said.
Yun Hao left the main courtyard and arrived outside Zhao Wangshu's courtyard. He saw a branch of red plum sticking out from the wall, adding a different color to the silver-covered world.
As soon as he entered the door, the maid saw him and was about to greet him, but he stopped her.
Yun Hao quietly walked in, and through the open window, he saw Zhao Wangshu reading a book. The sunlight shined on her face through the window, making her skin whiter.
"Miss Zhao." Yun Hao gently knocked on the window lattice.
Zhao Wangshu raised his head and saw that it was Yun Hao. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Master Yun is back? How is the business going?"
"Everything goes well." Yun Hao walked into the study, sat down next to her, opened the oil paper bag, and a sweet smell filled the air, "I bought this specially for you on the way."
"How do you know I want to eat roasted chestnuts with sugar?" Zhao Wangshu's eyes flashed, "Is this called telepathy?"
Yun Hao smiled and nodded: "This is the connection between hearts." As he said that, he took out a roasted chestnut, carefully peeled off the shell, and handed the warm chestnut meat to Zhao Wangshu.
Zhao Wangshu took it and took a bite. The sweet taste immediately spread in her mouth. A satisfied smile appeared on her face, "It's delicious."
She also peeled one off and said, "You can eat it too."
After the two of them ate a few, Zhao Wangshu stood up and said, "I have a gift for you."
Yun Hao looked at her and smiled, "I didn't bring you a gift when I came back. If you're not angry, you still give me a gift. This will make me feel guilty."
"You are on an errand, not out for fun, so you don't need to bring a gift." Zhao Wangshu took out the brocade box from the cabinet and handed it to him.
Yun Hao opened the brocade box and found a jade belt hook inside.
The delicate hook is engraved with patterns of auspicious clouds and auspicious animals, which means good luck and beauty.
"Why do you want to give me a gift?" he asked softly.
Slender fingers gently stroked the surface of the jade belt hook, feeling the delicate texture and exquisite craftsmanship.
"Master Yun, you are not Dayu." Zhao Wangshu pouted, "I was so busy with official duties that I forgot my birthday."
Yun Hao was stunned for a moment, then showed a gentle smile and put the jade belt hook back into the brocade box, "Wang Shu, thank you."
"This jade belt hook is a pattern I drew specially for you and was carved out by someone else. I hope you like it."
Yun Hao reached out and took her into his arms, "I like it very much."
"Although it's a few days late, I still want to say, Yun Hao, happy birthday." Zhao Wangshu hooked his neck, stood up on tiptoes, and gave his lips a peck.
"Wangshu, Wangshu, Wangshu." Yun Hao hugged Zhao Wangshu tighter, as if he wanted to express his inner gratitude and joy in this way.
The two hugged each other and shared this warm moment.
Yun Hao had lunch at Zhao's house before leaving, and went to interrogate the imperial doctor in the afternoon.
After running around for days, the imperial doctor looked exhausted, but Yun Hao had no intention of letting him go. What he needs is more details, more clues.
"Wu He, think about it carefully. Are there any special marks on that letter? Or, is there anything special about the person who sent the letter?" Yun Hao asked in a deep voice.
"Master Yun, I told you that the person who delivered the letter was just a child. There is nothing special about him." Wu He drooped his head feebly, "As for the letter, I have already burned it, so I don't remember any special markings."
"Wu He, your crime is unforgivable, but your family can still be saved. You must think carefully." Although Yun Hao's tone was calm, there was an unquestionable majesty.
Wu He closed his eyes and tried to remember, "The letter... the letter is made of jade-studded cardboard. There is a faint medicinal smell on the paper. The rest... I really can't remember."
Yun Hao frowned slightly, "Smells of medicine?"
It is impossible for pharmacies to write prescriptions on jade paper, as it will smell of medicine, which means the paper is placed near the medicinal materials.
This was a clue. Yun Hao continued to ask, "Think about it again, what does the child who delivered the letter look like? Does he have any special characteristics?"
"The kid was wearing patched shorts. I remembered that he had a small red mole on his left hand."
Yun Hao's eyes lit up, "Red mole? Where is it?"
Wu He pointed, "It's right at the tiger's mouth on the left hand."
Yun Hao nodded slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face. He knew that with this characteristic, it would not be difficult to find the child who sent the message, "Take him prisoner."
I was exhausted today. My sister-in-law bought a bunch of meat and asked me to refine it for three hours.
The weather was nice, so I went to help my mother take a bath again.
