It's quiet at night.

Most places in Kyoto have almost fallen silent.

In the third prince's residence.

In the study room, Jun Hao was still thinking hard about a question.

What did the old emperor want him to do by throwing himself into the Ministry of Industry? If you just offend someone, you have already offended yourself.

Then what?

Jun Hao thought about many answers to this question.

For example, let yourself be an eyeliner or something.

But he always felt something was wrong.

After thinking about it, Jun Hao fell asleep directly on the table.

Until a noise outside woke him up.

Then there was a knock on the door, and the housekeeper came to tell him something. Someone fell into the well.

"Um?"

Jun Hao almost woke up suddenly and walked out.

On the way, the housekeeper told him the situation.

The one who fell into the water was a servant.

But this servant is not ordinary, because she follows the prince's concubine...that is, the maid Xin'er who the heroine Wang Shiyan married.

Jun Hao: "..."

After a while.

In the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion, where people gathered, Jun Hao could now see the little maid Xin'er who had fallen into the water.

At this moment, he has been rescued.

Wang Shiyan next to her kept comforting her.

The servants around were muttering something.

"Are you okay?" Junhao asked softly, looking at the frightened little maid Xin'er Junhao who turned pale.

"No, it's okay, I'm fine, Your Highness!"

The little maid quickly stammered a reply.

A pair of eyes looked at Jun Hao nervously.

Wang Shiyan's eyes next to her were also extremely angry at the moment, and she was also cautiously asking about Xin'er's situation and how she could fall into the well.

"this……"

The little maid lowered her head and briefly explained the situation. If other maids asked her for help, she went.

I was suddenly hit by a black shadow on the road!

"Dark Shadow?"

Wang Shiyan and Jun Hao both frowned.

Then they investigated.

First, look for the maid who is looking for Xin'er, and then...

In the room where the maid in the mansion lives.

Jun Hao stared blankly at the body hanging on the beam, his face trembling slightly.

Even some legs are weak.

You must know that this is a corpse. This is the first time in this life that I have seen a corpse right in front of me.

In his previous life, he didn't even want to go into a hospital with a morgue!

At this moment, Wang Shiyan also frowned. Then she looked at Jun Hao and immediately curled her lips slightly.

She stretched out her hand and pulled him inadvertently, feeling embarrassed to be intimidated by such a worthless person. There were quite a few servants here.

Jun Hao: "..."

For a moment, he took a deep breath and quietly left Wang Shiyan's support.

Although he still felt a little scared.

But at this moment, the man's dignity told him that he could no longer be afraid.

At the same time, he also glanced at Wang Shiyan in surprise, who didn't look scared at all.

He felt embarrassed but also a little surprised.

What on earth was this woman doing before time travel that she wasn’t afraid of death?

Afterwards, the two of them observed for a while.

Before Jun Hao spoke, Wang Shiyan frowned and said: "Suicide, the time of death was probably just now, and it was probably the time when we saved Xin'er."

Junhao:? ? ?

He glanced at Wang Shiyan in surprise again.

I had some suspicion that this woman should have been a doctor in her previous life.

Stayed up all night.

The next day, Jun Hao did not go to the Ministry of Industry.

He's looking into this.

After all, it was a murder that happened in his own house, which made him feel very insecure.

Then he was a little confused based on various clues.

Not only does the maid of death have no grudge against Xin'er, but they even have a good relationship. In this case, she has no reason.

For this reason, he went to the Yamen to invite Zuo Zuo.

It's not that I don't believe Wang Shiyan, it's mainly because she specializes in the art.

But the final result of the investigation was the same as Wang Shiyan said she committed suicide.

so……

In the study, looking at Wang Shiyan in front of him, Jun Hao asked doubtfully: "Who has Miss Wang offended recently?"

Wang Shiyan instantly looked at him like an idiot.

Jun Hao coughed slightly in embarrassment.

Well, he asked a question. Wang Shiyan has been in the Prince's Mansion these days, and she is with him the rest of the time.

So he is not Xin'er's enemy, nor is he Wang Shiyan's enemy.

Then he can't be his enemy, right?

Jun Hao was even more confused.

He has basically never left his house since time travel. Who can he offend? As for killing someone?

He carefully recalled his past during this period.

It seems that no one has been offended.

Except for kicking the official from the Ministry of Works yesterday, I didn't use much force and didn't focus on the vital points.

And this is the prince's palace, so it shouldn't be.

At this moment, Jun Hao's mind was recalling the corpse he saw last night.

He knew that little maid. He had teased her sometimes before, but within a few days she had turned into a corpse and a murderer.

Jun Hao looked complicated.

He and Wang Shiyan stared at each other in the room. They made some guesses, but neither of them felt it was reasonable.

Even Wang Shiyan felt like it was the Prime Minister's Mansion, but...

Until Butler Li arrived and told Jun Hao something, the little maid who died last night should be the fifth prince's person.

"Fifth brother?"

Jun Hao was startled and looked at Butler Li.

Butler Li nodded seriously.

Jun Hao was silent.

Butler Li is the emperor's man. Now that he is telling himself this, is this what the emperor told him?

Does that mean it's true?

Does that mean the fifth prince did it?

But why?

Ministry of Industry?

But I didn’t do much in the Ministry of Industry, and I didn’t touch any government affairs. I just wanted to protect myself wisely...

Thinking about it, Jun Hao looked ugly.

Could it be that just because he entered the Ministry of Industry, what happened last night? Even if you didn't do anything?

Then, he will kill himself as a warning?

Jun Hao felt a little complicated at this moment.

Although he had long known that this was a world where people's lives were insignificant, he still didn't expect that someone he knew so well would die in his home.

"Are you OK?"

Wang Shiyan asked softly next to her.

Jun Hao shook his head, but his mood still couldn't calm down.

The true cruelty of the world at this moment made him a little confused.

In front of him, Butler Li looked at Jun Hao calmly, and then asked: "Your Highness, that body?"

Jun Hao was silent for a moment: "Get some money from the treasury for burial."

Butler Li was startled when he heard this.

I was surprised, a dead maid? Take money from the treasury and still bury him?

He couldn't help but look at Wang Shiyan.

But he didn't see any reaction. He looked at Jun Hao in surprise again, and then nodded lightly: "I understand!"

After saying that, he retreated.
