After Ji Huanyu returned to Beijing, he took the position of prefect of Jingzhao. He received a case on the first day of his tenure.

Lei Lei handed the case file to Ji Huanyu. Ji Huanyu took it in his hand and looked it through, "Send someone to investigate!"

"But this subordinate of the Zhuo Mansion may not be able to get in!" Lei Lei bowed.

"You, the young master of Jingzhao Mansion, can't even enter! Could it be that the Zhuo Mansion is a Hall of King of Hell?" Ji Huanyu looked at Lei Lei in confusion.

"The old marquis of Zhuo Mansion is very powerful! He never has any contact with the officials in the court. The younger generation who went to visit could not enter the door at all." Lei Lei explained to Ji Huanyu.

"This time it's a case! He dares not open the door?" Ji Huanyu said in disbelief.

"Since he doesn't open the door, how can we know that we are handling the case? Even if it is the Marquis' Mansion, we can't trespass!" Lei Lei sighed with his hands pressing the hilt of the sword.

"Are you sure that Marquis Zhuo's second son is in the Marquis' mansion?" Ji Huanyu also felt that the case was quite tricky.

"After the person who came to report the case claimed that Zhuo Lai killed someone, he did enter the Marquis' Mansion." Lei Lei reported truthfully.

"This is not easy to deal with! You go down first! Let me think of a way!" Ji Huanyu gently tapped his forehead with his fist.

Ji Huanyu returned to Mr. Ji's mansion at night and was depressed. Hai Yingying looked at the two sleeping children and said, "Look at how cute our children are!"

Ji Huanyu walked over and squatted down, put his arm on the cart without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" Hai Yingying asked.

Ji Huanyu told the story of his report on the case in Jingzhao Mansion today.

Hai Yingying said that Zhuo Mansion and Haihou Mansion are in-laws, and we and Zhuo Mansion can be regarded as distant relatives!

"I know what to do!" Ji Huanyu was happy, and his arm was shaking with strength, and he fell to the ground.

"Ha! Why are you so careless?" Hai Yingying smiled and helped Ji Huanyu up.

"Sleep!" Ji Huanyu happily hugged Hai Yingying and went to bed.

The next day, Ji Huanyu and Hai Yingying went to Haihou Mansion. Hai Yingying talked about this very much.

Zhuo Lan said that his second uncle could not kill anyone. Hai Yingying asked her to take him and Ji Huanyu to Zhuo Hou’s Mansion to ask clearly.

Zhuo Lan has always been simple. She then took Ji Huanyu and his wife back to Zhuo Hou's Mansion.

When Mr. Zhuo saw Zhuo Lan bring Ji Huanyu and his wife, although he was unhappy, he did not express it too much.

Zhuo Lan directly told Mr. Zhuo Marquis about Ji Huanyu and his wife's purpose.

When Mr. Zhuo heard this, he said angrily: "Your second uncle hasn't gone out in the past two days! Save guests!"

"Since it wasn't him! Then how about asking him to go to the court to prove his innocence?" Ji Huanyu bowed and said.

"Grandpa! Second uncle can't be wronged for no reason!" Zhuo Lan also spoke from the side.

"Since they can blatantly accusate him, can he make it clear?" Marquis Zhuo's eyes glared and his eyebrows stood up.

"As long as it's really not him, I will definitely give him a cleansing!" Ji Huanyu said authentically.

"He is playing chess with me every day, and I am my personal certificate! But he is my son! My personal certificate doesn't work! Even if other people in the mansion can testify, they are all from the mansion after all!" Mr. Zhuo clenched his fists.

"I believe you! Huanyu leaves!" After Ji Huanyu showed his respects, he took Hai Yingying out of Zhuo Hou Mansion.

"The defendant is not here! How do you decide the case?" Hai Yingying got into the carriage and looked at Ji Huanyu and asked.

"Drag!" Ji Huanyu bit his lips and said. He wanted to see what the person who complained was trying to do?

Ji Huanyu asked Lei Lei to put the case aside first. Lei Lei heard that Ji Huanyu and his wife went to Zhuo Hou Mansion. He didn't know that Ji Huanyu had seen Zhuo Hou, but he didn't ask and did what he did.

A few days later, when Prince Jinlan heard that Ji Huanyu had no action on the case, he sneered: "Even a case can't be solved! Can he, the prefect of Jingzhao, sit still?"

Tuan asked Young Master Jinlan if he wanted to help Ji Huanyu. Young Master Jinlan didn't help his son, but he also made a big fuss!

There is something circulating in the streets and alleys of the capital! Mr. Zhuo’s son killed someone, but Jingzhao Mansion ignored him!

This incident reached the prince's ears. He passed Ji Huanyu to the East Palace to inquire about the matter.

Ji Huanyu told the prince about his visit to Marquis Zhuo.

The prince said that this matter had spread and you must close the case as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Ji Huanyu thought on the way back from the palace, who was adding fuel to this matter? Of course, he never dreamed that it was his good thing!

Ji Huanyu returned to Jingzhao Mansion and began to carefully check the case file. The case was actually very simple. Mr. Liang drank too much in the restaurant and became a woman singing the song.

Zhuo Lai, the second son of Zhuo Hou’s Mansion, took action for good, but kicked Mr. Liang’s brother-in-law to death.

Then Zhuo Lai ran away. Seeing that his brother-in-law was dead, Mr. Liang sent someone to follow Zhuo to Zhuo Hou's mansion.

Ji Huanyu asked Lei Lei to bring all the parties involved to Jingzhao Mansion. Except for Zhuo Lai from Zhuo Hou Mansion, the rest of the people came.

Ji Huanyu and Lei Lei interrogated each person separately. Then they were detained in Jingzhao Prefecture to prevent them from colluding with confessions and reversing their confessions.

Ji Huanyu brought Lei Lei to Zhuo Hou Mansion again. The gate of Zhuo Hou Mansion was closed, and Ji Huanyu asked someone to come forward to knock on the door and shout, but no one in the mansion came to open the door.

Ji Huanyu returned to Jingzhao Mansion in frustration. Lei Lei stayed with him until late at night before leaving the government office and going back.

"Huanyu! Come with me!" Liu Tao's appearance surprised Ji Huanyu.

Ji Huanyu was taken to Gongzi Qingqian's villa by Liu Tao. He saw Gongzi Qingqian there.

"Father! Why are you here?" Ji Huanyu was shocked when he saw the young master Qingqian.

"Yingying begged my father to help you! So I came when I received my father's message!" Young Master Qingqian looked at this son-in-law who had no experience in solving the case and sighed in his heart.

"Tell me about the case!" Gongzi Qingqian drank a tea ceremony.

Ji Huanyu told the whole story of the case and all his actions on the case.

Young Master Qingqian didn't expect Ji Huanyu to be so smart. He showed a look of praise on his face.

"What do you plan to do next?" Gongzi Qingqian asked.

"I really don't know what to do if the Marquis Zhuo Mansion cannot enter! If Marquis Zhuo said it true, then this case is not as simple as it seems! I originally wanted to delay it and see what the plaintiff's intentions are. I didn't expect that they would spread the matter, which forced me..." Ji Huanyu supported his head with his hands. He really felt overwhelmed.

"The news was sent by your father!" Young Master Qingqian looked at Ji Huanyu sympathetically.

"How is that possible?" Ji Huanyu shook his head.

"I saw his people posting lists in the streets and alleys!" Liu Tao had to tell the truth.

"Are you saying that this case is related to my father?" Ji Huanyu couldn't help but feel shocked!

"The case has nothing to do with him!" Young Master Qingqian looked at Ji Huanyu steadily.

"Then why..." Ji Huanyu was crying now.

"Your father likes your soft-hearted aunt. And she has become my wife again. This is a thorn in his heart. You married my daughter again. He vented all his resentment towards me on you." Young Master Qingqian's words made Ji Huanyu finally understand why his father always targeted him like this.

"It's better if it's not him!" Ji Huanyu sniffed.

"I have already thought about the next step for you! You only need to do this tomorrow to find out the case!" Gongzi Qingqian whispered his plan.

Ji Huanyu was so impressed that he was overwhelmed by his admiration. He happily returned to Mr. Ji's mansion.

While secretly escorting Ji Huanyu, Liu Tao found that the men of Gongzi Jinlan were waiting around Mr. Ji's mansion. He went back and talked to Gongzi Qingqian.
