Mei Guangtao recognized Li Qingyan at a glance and asked, "aren't you Li Ji's friend? Why are you here?"

Li lightly arched his hand at him: "tell Mei Fuyin that the students are here to assist the prince in handling the case."

Mei Guangtao didn't expect that an ordinary suicide case could arouse his royal highness to investigate in person.

In his amazement, he was acutely aware of the unusual.

He had dealt with the crown prince and knew that the crown prince was not a simple person.

The prince must have mastered the exact evidence and knew that Li Ji's death was strange, so he would investigate and handle the case himself.

At the thought of this, Mei Guangtao felt that his hairline seemed to move back again.

He couldn't help touching his forehead.

Can't you stop this day by day?

He doesn't ask much. He just wants to commute normally.

Why can't he even meet such a humble request?

The prince said coldly, "go and find out who took Li Ji's body? And Li Ji's residence, where he has been during this time, and who he has come with."

Mei Guangtao had no choice but to swallow his stomach full of pain and continue to work overtime.

At the prince's instigation, Li Qingyan also joined the investigation.

Li Qingyan is a bold and careful man, and his brain is easy to use. He extracts all the information about Li Ji from his memory, analyzes it one by one, and then confirms it one by one.

With his help, Mei Guangtao spent only one day checking all the activity tracks of Li Ji in the past half a month.

Mei Guangtao yawned and dragged his exhausted body after working overtime all night to report to the prince.

"Li Ji's money is not loose. In order to maintain his life, he usually helps people copy books and calculate accounts, so as to earn some small money to support his family."

"These are the lists of people who have been in contact with him recently."

Mei Guangtao handed over a list.

"Weichen has asked people to check one by one according to the list, and no problem has been found. This is a summary sorted out after our investigation."

He handed over another file.

Luo QingHan finished reading all the contents at a glance, and his eyes stayed on the last line of words.

The last place Li Ji visited before she died was Donglai building.

Donglai restaurant is one of the most famous restaurants in Shengjing city. The consumption in that place is very high. Li Ji's wealth should not be able to go to that place.

Luo QingHan asked, "what did Li Ji do in Donglai building?"

Mei Guangtao answered truthfully: "The HKCEE is coming soon. There are more and more scholars gathered in Shengjing. They love poetry parties and tea parties when they are idle and bored. That day, someone happened to have a poetry party in Donglai building. Li Ji didn't know where to get an invitation. He went to Donglai building to attend the poetry meeting, but strangely, he left in a hurry before the poetry meeting was over."

These are the information provided by the shopkeeper and guys in Donglai building.

Luo QingHan asked again, "where did he go after he left the Donglai building?"

Mei Guangtao: "he went directly back to his residence. After that, he never came out again. We didn't know that he was dead until he told the official the next day."

Luo QingHan: "who are the participants in the poetry fair?"

Mei Guangtao said, "it's not easy to check."

"Why?"

"The person who held the poetry meeting was Qin Wen."

Qin Wen is the son of Qin lie. It is said that he did very well in Imperial College. He is a famous young talent in Shengjing. He happens to take the HKCEE this year.

If you want to find out what the guests of the poetry club are, you must first pass the pass of Qin Wen.

However, Qin Wen has been staying in the Qin family for the past two days. People from Jingzhao house came to find him. As a result, Qin Wen didn't even see his face, so he was sent away by the housekeeper of the Qin family.

If it is an ordinary family, Beijing Zhaofu can forcibly take people away in order to handle the case.

But the Qin family can't.

Let alone those small officials below, even if Mei Guangtao, the head of Jingzhao mansion, went to the Qin family in person, he must be careful.

None of them dared to offend the Qin family.

Luo QingHan asked expressionless, "what are you afraid of?"

Mei Guangtao smiled awkwardly and didn't speak.

Luo QingHan turned to ask another thing.

"Did the man who took Li Ji's body find it?"

Mei Guangtao: "not yet."

Luo Qing looked at him coldly.

Mei Guangtao's scalp is numb. It's not much time since he last saw the prince. Why is the prince's momentum getting stronger and stronger? Now just a look in his eyes makes people nervous.

Mei Guangtao hardened his head and explained, "the person who took the body has made a disguise. His name and identity are all forged. Trying to find him is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

"I don't care about this, I just want the result."

Mei Guangtao hurriedly said, "Weichen will urge the people under his hand to find them as soon as possible!"

He lamented in his heart that it was over and he had to work overtime again!

After Luo QingHan left Jingzhao mansion, he went directly to the Ministry of punishment.

Yu Linwei found out the book of changes from the bookstore before. As the owner behind the bookstore, the Cui family has been monitored by Yu Linwei. As for the little childe of the Cui family, he has long been arrested by the people of the Ministry of punishment. Now he is locked up in the prison of the Ministry of punishment.

Dong Mingchun, the Minister of justice of the Ministry of punishment, learned that the prince was coming and hurried out to meet him in person.

Luo QingHan asked as he walked to the prison department.

"How's the boy of the Cui family?"

Dong Mingchun truthfully reported: "according to the instructions of his royal highness, he has specially closed childe Cui in a separate room. At first, he kept shouting to let him out. Later, he is estimated to be tired and calm down."

"Take him out and interrogate him in person."

"Here."

Luo QingHan sees little childe Cui in the prison.

Childe Cui had a hard mouth and refused to say anything until the crown prince asked people to be executed. Childe Cui, who had been spoiled since childhood, was immediately frightened to admit advice and shook off all the things he knew.

According to his confession, the book of changes with the title of the HKCEE was given by his father. As for where his father got the book of changes, childe Cui is not clear.

He sold HKCEE questions for money.

The days of the Cui family have become more and more difficult over the years. Almost all the industries accumulated by their ancestors have been destroyed. There are only two roads they will face next——

Or completely fall into the common people.

Or take risks and find a way to make money.

The Cui family chose the latter.

They have been used to the life of rich clothes and fine food, and look down on the common people from their bones. If they want to become humble common people, they might as well die.

The risk of selling HKCEE questions is great, but the profit is also very considerable.

The Cui family doesn't mind taking risks for money.

Little childe Cui cried with a runny nose and tears: "please spare your life, your highness. I won't dare again in the future!"
