On the second day, Chu Hongze was kneeling in the center of the court.

"Father, the poisoning incident that happened outside the city yesterday, the son asked to participate in the investigation."

The emperor didn't expect him to mention this matter at this time, but...

Now the suspect who has received the accusation is Princess Rui, if King Rui is asked to investigate this matter, it will be inappropriate, and it will inevitably involve his own selfishness.

"I can't agree to that." The emperor glanced around the court and continued: "It was your princess who was imprisoned in the prison yesterday, even if I agree, I am afraid that the families and people of those victims will not agree. ”

Seeing this, General Li stepped forward and knelt down with Chu Hongze.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter can be handed over to King Rui to deal with, the poison in this case is the same as the poison of the Queen Mother yesterday, and it is said that this poison, except for Princess Rui, no one knows about it, no one can solve it, since this is the case, why not release Princess Rui from the prison and let her go with King Rui to investigate the case?"

The emperor didn't think about it, but now in the capital, people think that it was Princess Rui's poison, if she is released, how can everyone stop? I'm afraid it will be mentioned in the daily recitals.

"Your Majesty, General Li is right."

"yes..."

Soon, the ministers in the court also echoed General Li's words, and they all thought that Wen Ruyi should be released at this time, these people were either people who cooperated with General Li, or people who wanted to rely on Chu Hongze, in short, the current situation was very favorable to Chu Hongze.

The emperor's brows were tightly locked, the reason why Chu Hongze chose to bring up this matter at this time was also to gamble, whether he could rescue Wen Ruyi or not depends on now.

"Okay, just do as General Li says, and let Wen Ruyi come out to assist King Rui in handling the case together, but—" He changed his words: "I will give you three days at most, if you fail to find that person within three days, I will punish Wen Ruyi." ”

The emperor's words have been obvious, if the murderer is not found, then it will be determined that Wen Ruyi is the murderer.

Three days, no more, no less, he can't guarantee whether he can find that person, but now is the only chance, so let's give it a try.

"Thank you, Father!"

After retreating, Chu Hongze and General Li went out of the main hall together.

"Thank you General Li for today's events."

"Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite, this matter is not over yet, the real test has just begun, and it will not be easy to find the murderer within three days."

"Well, even if it's unlikely, I'm going to try."

General Li nodded, just in time to catch a glimpse of someone standing not far away, smiling in that direction.

Chu Hongze followed his gaze, and his joy was beyond words.

"If the prince needs the help of the general in the future, just ask."

"Thank you."

Chu Hongze patted General Li on the shoulder, and the latter smiled and left.

Immediately afterwards, before Chu Hongze walked over to the person over there, the person came over.

"Chu Hongze!"

Wen Ruyi didn't care how many people were watching around her, she just wanted to hug him.

"How? Those people didn't bully you, did they? ”

Chu Hongze gently pushed her away, then looked at her from top to bottom, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he hugged her again.

"No, even if I'm imprisoned, I'm still Princess Rui, who would dare to bully me before I was convicted?"

She looked proud, and Chu Hongze reached out to scrape the tip of her nose.

"You go back and get some rest first, and then I'll talk to you about something by the way."

Wen Ruyi followed him into the carriage, maybe she didn't sleep well in the prison yesterday, the carriage was shaky, and she fell asleep leaning on Chu Hongze's body.

In fact, Chu Hongze didn't rest much, yesterday because he was worried about her, he didn't close his eyes much all night, he finally fell asleep, and it was time to get up and enter the palace again.

The carriage finally stopped at the gate of King Rui's mansion, Chu Hongze's sleep was very light, and he woke up as soon as the carriage stopped.

He looked down at the woman in his arms, still asleep, he gently picked her up, then got out of the carriage, and after entering the house, he sent her directly into her own house, took care of everything for her, and lit a soothing incense for her when he went out.

After Chu Hongze came out of Wen Ruyi's room, he went straight to the study.

Regarding this matter, Chu Hongze thought that he should start with the poisoning incident in the palace that day, although the poisoning on that day was different from the poisoning symptoms outside the city on the surface, it was not impossible to link.

And this person's ultimate purpose is probably to come to him and Wen Ruyi.

Wen Ruyi slept late this night, last night, she didn't sleep all night, just sat there, thought a lot, and went through some bits and pieces of what happened after she came to this world, all in her mind.

Later, she thought about Chu Hongze again, she thought, in the end, she would still go home, when the time comes, will Chu Hongze be reluctant to her? Will you miss her?

She can't stay in this world forever, she doesn't belong to this world, so in the end, she has to leave.

Wen Ruyi patted her head to sober herself up, got up and pushed the door open and went out.

Chu Hongze was feeding the parrot in her yard, and this parrot was given to her by Mrs. Li, and she liked it so much that she kept it in her yard.

"Don't feed it, you see how fat it is, it won't be able to fly in the future."

Wen Ruyi jumped up and ran towards him.

"Woke up?"

"Not yet, but don't you tell me something? What's the matter? ”

"Come into the house and say."

Chu Hongze put down the things in his hand and brought Wen Ruyi into the house.

"What's the matter? So mysterious! ”

Wen Ruyi just woke up, a little thirsty, poured himself a glass of water, and then pushed the kettle to Chu Hongze: "If you want to drink, pour it yourself!" ”

"Or the poisoning outside the city."

Hearing this, Wen Ruyi put away the smile on his face and looked at Chu Hongze with a serious expression.

"The reason why my father agreed to get you out of prison first is because I promised my father to come out of this murderer within three days."

"Three days? Don't tell me it's been a day. ”

Wen Ruyi almost jumped up in fright, how easy is it to find a drug master who has not shown the slightest flaw so far?

"Well, two more days."

"Then why didn't you wake me up today? You didn't even tell me about such an important matter! ”

Wen Ruyi really felt stupid, she had slept happily for so long just now, but she didn't expect that this time had been wasted by herself.

"You didn't rest well yesterday, I don't worry that you will go out with me in this situation, don't worry, two days is enough."

Wen Ru thought that he seemed to be confident, and he was very puzzled, could it be that he had found any evidence?

"Did you find any evidence?"

"Not yet, but there are new discoveries, and one of the few nameless corpses outside the city is a descendant of the Rui Wangfu."

Wen Ruyi was puzzled: "Is there anything to do with the two?" ”

"Do you remember the poisoning incident that happened in the house a few days ago?"

Wen Ruyi nodded, she would have a deep memory of these things, after all, they were life-threatening things.

"And the one who was poisoned outside the city is probably the one who poisoned the Rui Wang's Mansion."

"Is that sure?"

As soon as Wen Ruyi asked, she suddenly thought of one more thing, after she came back from the Prince's Mansion that day, she was also poisoned.

These things were probably done by one person.

"I have something to tell you!" Wen Ruyi hesitated for a while, but finally decided to speak.

"Well, you say, I'll listen."

"I've been poisoned once before."

Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, Chu Hongze's face became very ugly.

"When?"

Wen Ruyi looked at him, who was already trying to control his emotions as much as possible.

"It's just that before, I went to the Prince's Mansion once and went with Hua Yan."

Chu Hongze recalled it carefully, as if he didn't have any impression of this incident, and he didn't have to think about it, it should be that she went secretly and didn't tell him about it.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I... I'm afraid you're worried, and besides, I can handle it myself. ”

Chu Hongze suddenly felt a little tired, and he found that he didn't seem to know much about her.

She had been poisoned some time ago, but he didn't know anything like an outsider, she always felt that she could handle it, and she would never mention this kind of big thing in front of him.

"Yes, you can handle all things by yourself, you can live well without me, and you can live a better life without Rui Wangfu."

Chu Hongze turned his head away and didn't look at Wen Ruyi.

Wen Ruyi was a little overwhelmed and stunned, she really didn't mean not to tell him, but that after she discharged the toxin that day, there was no big problem, so she didn't tell anyone.

"No, without you, I'm not doing well at all, if I had a good life, I wouldn't have gone to the frontier to find you without anything, and now it seems that I was impulsive that day."

Neither of them spoke again, and the room was surprisingly quiet, except for the sound of a parrot crashing into its cage outside.

"I'm sorry, I just... It's me who is wrong, I..."

After Chu Hongze calmed down, he regretted unusually what he and her had just said, how could these words be said like this?

"I'm also wrong, I'll tell you about this kind of thing later."

Although Wen Ruyi said so, she still felt a little aggrieved in her heart, why did her kindness disrespect him in his eyes?

"Go on, all the things that happened that day of poisoning."

Chu Hongze changed the topic in time, and he completely regretted his behavior just now.

Wen Ruyi nodded, and told Chu Hongze all the events of that day, including what he and Chu Hongze talked about, what they ate, what they drank, and then what the symptoms of poisoning were, and even how to detoxify Chu Hongze very clearly.
