Li Zhi didn't delay any longer, and temporarily put away his other thoughts, and talked about the serious thing that should be said in this kung fu.

"These days, I have been supervising a major corruption case personally assigned by the emperor, and the depth and breadth of this case can be said to be very rare. Therefore, the resistance to this is amazing, and even if I, the prince, personally intervene, it will have little effect. In addition, my second emperor brother always added blockage in the middle, intentionally or unintentionally, so that almost all the clues are now interrupted, and the investigation has fallen into a helpless situation. ”

"Your Highness means that the second prince may also be involved in this case?" After Ye Nianchen listened, he was thoughtful.

Ye Nianchen has also heard of this major corruption case, and it is said that the number of officials involved and the breadth of grades are simply appalling. What's even more ridiculous is that the emperor personally ordered the crown prince to supervise and the second prince to assist, but when it came to the bottom, he still turned a deaf ear, and the clues of the case were almost destroyed.

Therefore, Ye Nianchen naturally understands that this case must involve a huge chain of interests, and the reason why these bold and colluding officials in the capital are still so rampant at this time is mostly because the biggest backing and force behind the whole is very likely to be the second prince!

However, Li's attitude in handling the case was quite fair, even if he was a sworn enemy with the second prince, he did not arbitrarily set the tone before the final conclusion.

Li Zhi nodded but shook his head: "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, if it is, it's not difficult to understand what he did." But the problem is. Even if he wasn't involved, it wouldn't be difficult to understand if he did those things that hindered him, after all, if I couldn't handle this case beautifully, I would naturally not be able to leave anything good in front of my father. ”

"Then Your Highness wants me to help do something?" Seeing this, Ye Nianchen asked the key point directly, but he didn't bother to care about the second prince.

Of course, she knew that if it had nothing to do with her, Li Zhi would not be able to come to her as soon as she returned to Beijing for no reason.

"After leaving Beijing this time, I finally found a person after several twists and turns, although this person seems to be not famous, but it is where the breakthrough in this case lies. Now I have secretly brought this person back to the capital. Ready to make a fuss about this person. laid out the overall situation, took advantage of the situation in one fell swoop, and cracked the case. ”

Li Zhi said the matter in general and did not deliberately hide anything. In the end, he said directly: "But this person has some slight connection with the death of your mother and brother that I just suddenly mentioned. If you throw him out of the game. It will inevitably lead to the question of how your mother and brother's death was different fifteen years ago, and there is a high probability that it will cause a stir. ”

"So ......" he looked at Ye Nianchen, and his tone was very soft: "So I want to ask you in advance." At this time, will the question of your mother's and brother's death be any conflict or adverse effect on your own planning? ”

As soon as Li Zhi's words came out, Ye Nianchen was silent again, and even his gaze at Li Zhi became complicated.

"Has Your Highness thought too much? Could it be that if I say that this news will be spread on a large scale at this moment, it will affect my plans, and you can still press this matter down first? ”

After a while, Ye Nianchen smiled and asked rhetorically.

In fact, she knew in her heart that it was impossible, but it was good for Li Zhi to be able to say hello to her in advance, and in fact, at this time, it was not unfavorable for her to spread the news of her mother's brother's accidental death and the truth on a large scale.

However, Ye Nianchen never thought that she would ask so casually and get an answer that surprised her.

"Why not?" Li Zhi was very serious: "I specially discussed this matter with you, of course, it depends on what you mean." Anyway, this major corruption case can't be closed in a day or two, and it's nothing to me if it's late. ”

"Your Highness, you're not kidding, are you?" Ye Nianchen frowned and said: "How can this kind of thing be nothing, the so-called difference is a millimeter, a thousand miles away, now that you have a breakthrough in your hands, naturally the sooner you start, the better, the longer it drags on, the easier it will be noticed, I'm afraid it is easy to change." ”

"Certainly not a joke. What you said, I'll think about it, there will always be a way to deal with it, you just need to give me an approximate time, for example, how long will it not affect your plan? ”

Of course, Li Zhi understood what Ye Nianchen said, and in fact, on the way here, he didn't make up his mind like this, but he didn't know what was going on with this kung fu, so he changed his words so naturally.

Originally, he thought that if his plan would affect Ye Nianchen's plan, then he notified Ye Nianchen in advance and persuaded Ye Nianchen to make temporary adjustments, so that it would not affect too much, but when he said that, he couldn't open that mouth.

In fact, even Li Zhi himself didn't realize what his change of appearance represented.

Ye Nianchen looked left and right, and really couldn't see any hypocrisy in the prince's expression, which made her a little incomprehensible.

Seeing that this is true, but Li Zhi never thought about it, what if she needed a long time, not in simple days or months, but directly in years?

Could it be that he really planned to run away such a good chance to break through the case for fear of affecting her plan?

At this juncture, Ye Nianchen didn't want to think about asking more questions, she always felt that this topic would be asked with suspicion again, and the answer she got would only make her feel more and more uncomfortable, so it was better to stop at the right time.

"Your Highness is so grateful to me as a collaborator. In fact, these days, I was also planning to find a suitable opportunity to officially remind the world of the old events of fifteen years ago, and speaking of which, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has done me a great favor this time. ”

Ye Nianchen smiled and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, prince, there is no need for any delay in the case you have investigated, and that important person can use it with confidence." If there is anything else that needs my help in the investigation of this case, His Royal Highness can only instruct him, and Nianchen will do his best. ”

"Really? It really won't make any difference? Li Zhi's face was a lot more relaxed, but he still confirmed it repeatedly.

"Of course it's true, let the prince worry about it, please forgive the prince." Ye Nianchen got up and saluted the prince: "I see that you should have just returned to Beijing, and you haven't rested well because of many things, so I won't bother if I have nothing else to do, and I will retire first." ”

"Wait......" Seeing Ye Nianchen's figure about to turn around and leave, Li Zhi subconsciously stood up, as if he had something important to say. (To be continued......)
