Chapter 283 It’s My Turn to Win!

The three children said goodbye to Princess Yuanan at Wannian County Court.

Princess Yuanan's case was different from Princess Ankang's case, it was a murder case.

But Princess Yuanan didn't talk about the specific details.

Princess Yuanan had only glanced at the case file before, and didn't know much, and her will to solve the case was weak, so it was estimated that she couldn't find out anything.

The three children left the county court, followed by the eunuch in charge of recording, a team of eunuchs in flowery clothes in charge of guarding, and two officials who assisted in the investigation.

These people together were quite a large group.

After leaving the county court, they walked to the nearest owner's house to see if they could ask anything more.

On the way, Princess Ankang also humbly asked the two officials how to solve the case.

The two officials were respectful and answered everything they knew.

"This, Miss."

One of the officials who was good at talking was responsible for answering Princess Ankang's questions.

"In the past, when we investigated a case, we just asked. We first went out to visit and collect clues as much as possible."

"Generally speaking, we can get a rough idea by asking. There are not many complicated cases that require careful investigation."

The officials also knew that many people had read some stories in the drama and thought that solving a case was magical.

But in fact, no matter what the matter is, there is always a most efficient process to go through over and over again.

They, the officials, are just getting better with the process day after day.

And this cleverness makes everyone feel novel.

The two officials were also afraid that Princess Ankang was a young lady from an official family who was deeply poisoned by the drama and had unreasonable high expectations for them, so they directly explained these things.

The capital is very large and there are many people.

They received countless reports every day in the Wannian County Office, and it was impossible to solve all of them.

When they met someone reporting a crime on the street, they would try to smooth things over if possible, and it would be best if they could avoid bringing the case to the county government.

For the cases reported to the county government, they would also classify them into different levels, and then assign personnel to solve them.

The public security in the capital was good, but murders often occurred.

Stealing, cheating, and fraud happened every day.

Under such circumstances, the county government could only focus on solving more serious murders, and then send some newcomers to practice with the lowest difficulty cases.

For example, the serial burglary case in Princess Ankang's hands was a relatively high priority case among thefts.

Because it was "serial", the nature of the case was more serious than that of ordinary cases.

But the problem was that the amount of money in this case was not too large, so there were not many people assigned to this case, and there were indeed too few clues, so it has not been solved until now.

On the way, Princess Ankang listened to the officials sharing their experience in solving the case.

Of course, the other party had been reminded by his superiors to only say what should be said, and dared not mention any topics that should not be said.

Any profession has its dark side, especially those officials who often deal with the dark side of society.

After listening to the general process of solving the case, Princess Ankang reached out and touched Li Xuan, and fell into her own thoughts.

From the case file and the words of the official, Princess Ankang did not notice anything unusual.

The case handed to her was a normal case.

Those families who lost things were also ordinary, with only a few wealthy businessmen at most, and they were not big shots at all.

"Let's see it with our own eyes first."

Princess Ankang muttered in her heart.

Li Xuan was in Princess Ankang's arms, observing her all the time.

At this time, Li Xuan already knew that Princess Ankang's curiosity had been ignited.

He could clearly feel that Princess Ankang's curiosity was not only about the case.

It was true that Emperor Yongyuan always had to do something fancy in the competition every month, and this month was probably no exception.

The group came to the home of the first victim.

This was an antique shop, and it was also the victim with the heaviest losses.

Although the antiques lost here were small, they were all quite valuable, and the value of the lost property was more than the other several families combined.

"Let's go in and take a look."

After Princess Ankang finished speaking, two officials skillfully opened the door of the antique shop and asked the shopkeeper inside for questioning.

...

Just as the three little ones began to look for the victims, someone was already having a celebration banquet.

Chang'an County Government Office.

The eldest prince and the sixth princess were handing over to the magistrate of Chang'an County at this time.

"Sir Zhang, the criminal has been detained, so my case is closed."

"Of course, I have to congratulate your highness."

Zhang Jian, the magistrate of Chang'an County, neatly stamped his official seal on a closing document.

He handed the document to the eldest prince and was even happier than the other party.

"Thanks to your highness for solving the case like a god, the criminal was arrested in less than a day, and the truth was revealed to the people. It was really swift and resolute."

Zhang Jian gave a thumbs up, and was amazed. Obviously, he admired the eldest prince very much.

"You are too kind, County Magistrate Zhang."

The eldest prince said a few polite words, and looked at his sister beside him. The brother and sister couldn't help but smile proudly.

After leaving the palace, it was their home court.

Especially the eldest prince and the sixth princess were lucky enough to draw the case of Chang'an County.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Chang'an County is the territory of their mother, Concubine Zhang's family.

Didn't you see that the county magistrate's surname is Zhang?

Outside the palace, Concubine Zhang's family power was very useful.

The eldest prince drew a somewhat complicated murder case.

A woman had an affair with her husband, and ended up poisoning her husband with her lover to seize the family property, but was discovered by her husband.

The husband was in the freight business and knew some strong men who traveled all over the country. He hired a killer to kidnap the adulterer.

He originally wanted to use the evidence to counter the adulterer and make the lover pay a sum of money to buy his life.

As a result, an accident happened halfway, and the adulterer and the adulterer both died, and the gang of strong men fled far away.

No one knew the details of the case. Outsiders only thought that the adulterer and the adulterer were robbed and killed by strong men when they eloped.

There was no doubt about this case at the beginning, and it was going to be concluded, but it was selected as one of the cases in this month's competition.

Afterwards, the eldest prince mobilized his connections, and the sixth princess gave up the case on hand and tried her best to help the eldest prince investigate the case. Soon, the details of the husband's hiring of killers were found, and the gang of strong men were captured all the way.

In the end, with conclusive evidence, the husband could only admit that he did hire someone to kidnap the adulterer, but he definitely did not instruct them to kill.

The murder was indeed the arbitrariness of the gang.

After they captured the woman, they saw how beautiful she was and became lustful.

But they went too far and killed the woman.

They knew that the woman was the employer's wife and that they would not be able to report to the boss if they failed, so they killed the adulterer and went back to continue their own life.

They knew very well that people like them could not stay in the capital for long, especially after they committed a crime.

Anyway, they had received a deposit before and had a good time, so they would not suffer any loss.

As a result, they did not expect that the net of heaven was vast, and the eldest prince used the power of the Zhang family to catch them back.

Speaking of which, these people were also stupid. They did not want to flee far after committing a crime, but returned to their old nest not far from the capital, thinking that their husband, who was an accomplice, could not do anything to them, so they did not want to leave at all.

Otherwise, the eldest prince would not be able to arrest them in just one day.

But thanks to them, the eldest prince was the first among all the princes and princesses to solve the case.

And according to the information from the fourth prince and the sixth princess, no one was faster than him, not even Princess Ankang.

The eldest prince felt that he was sure to win this month.

After all, the rules of the competition did not mention that he was not allowed to use the power of the family, so it was not a foul.

The eunuch who was responsible for recording naturally recorded all the actions of the eldest prince, but the eldest prince felt that he had nothing to feel guilty about.

The power of one's own family is also one aspect of strength, isn't it?

"Brother, we seem to be sure this month."

The sixth princess said excitedly.

"Well, sixth sister."

"I want to see, in this case, how can others snatch my victory?"

The eldest prince's eyes were full of energy, and he was so high-spirited for the first time.

It was only the second day, and he had already completed the competition. He could move freely in the next period of time.

In a beautiful name, he observed the progress of other people's investigations.

"By the way, Sixth Sister."

"Your case..."

As a result, the Sixth Princess waved her hand and said generously:

"No more investigation, what case to investigate."

"Big brother, let's go to Fourth Brother to play!"

The Sixth Princess said happily.

It's a rare opportunity to leave the palace, who doesn't want to have a good time?

But when the Sixth Princess said this, the First Prince subconsciously looked at the eunuch in charge of recording.

He saw the eunuch's pen tip flying and had already written something, so he didn't think about it anymore.

"Okay, let's go find Fourth Brother."

The First Prince took the Sixth Princess' hand, hurriedly said goodbye to County Magistrate Zhang, found a few horses, and prepared to ride to Wannian County with his sister.

Looking at the figures of the First Prince and the Sixth Princess going away, County Magistrate Zhang couldn't help but sigh, but didn't say much, and prepared to go to his official duties.

He and Concubine Zhang's Zhang family are grasshoppers tied to the same rope. Now seeing the First Prince proud, he is also happy.

But...

Although the contact time was not long, County Magistrate Zhang felt that the eldest prince seemed to yearn for the freedom of the outside world more.

That yearning is very pure and very strong.

Can such a person really do what he should do next?

…

Some are happy and some are sad.

When the eldest prince was enjoying his life, the three little ones walked out of a medicine shop listlessly.

This is the last victim they visited today.

This medicine shop lost a few precious medicinal materials. Although the quantity is not large, it is worth some money.

More importantly, these medicinal materials are rarely purchased every quarter. As a result, they are now swept away by people, so the shopkeeper has to re-purchase a batch of goods at a high price to replenish them.

According to the shopkeeper, those medicinal materials are generally rarely bought, but they must be kept in the shop, because people who come to find these medicinal materials are generally in urgent need, and if they are not available, it will cause great inconvenience to the customers.

But the three little ones visited for a day and did not get any valuable clues. No wonder this case has not been solved yet.

The thief seemed to have wings, leaving no traces between coming and going.

Even among those who lost things, some did not notice it at the first time.

After leaving the medicine shop, it was already late.

Princess Ankang saw that the time agreed with Princess Yuanan was approaching, so she took people back to Wannian County Government Office.

As a result, Princess Yuanan was waiting here early, and it was unknown whether she had investigated the case well today.

As soon as she saw Princess Ankang, Princess Yuanan hurried over.

"Sister, should we go to the East Market to play now?"

"If we don't go now, we will miss the parade of the Oiran."

The two of them went out today dressed as men, just to see the excitement in the evening and find a suitable store to see the excitement.

Princess Ankang had made a promise before, and naturally she would not break it.

"Since my sister is ready, let's go."
