When Shen Xihe arrived in Zenan, he immediately ordered the prefect Yu Zaojiao to leave the prince of Shunan in the forest.Yu Zao not only refused to cooperate, but threatened to report the matter to the court on the grounds that women were not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Before he could finish his words, Yu Zao was stopped on the spot by Shen Xihe's bodyguard Mo Yu holding a sword.When the two sides were in a stalemate, Bu Shulin actually walked out of the prison together with Zenan County magistrate Tang Juan. Tang Juan exposed all the charges of corruption and perversion of law in court. He had all the account books and witnesses in his hand, and every piece of evidence was ironclad.

Bu Shulin didn't have time to rest, so he immediately gathered his troops and rushed to the mine to rescue Cui Jinbai. He galloped all the way, his heart was full of anxiety, for fear that if he was one step too late, something would happen to Cui Jinbai.Cui Jinbai saw the worry that could not be concealed in her eyes, his heart warmed, and he stepped forward and hugged her tightly.But Bu Shulin pushed him away gently, thanked him solemnly, and at the same time made it clear that the two of them still needed to maintain a sense of proportion and not exceed the rules.

That night, Prince Xiao Huayong quietly came to the prison and proposed to interrogate Yu Zao with Shen Xihe. At this point, he also knew the secret that Bu Shulin was originally a daughter.Shen Xihe agreed after weighing it for a while. With the prince sitting in charge, he might be able to pry open Yu Zao's mouth and ask about the hidden story behind it.But when the two were interrogated, Yu Zao insisted that all the blame was solely on him, and he had no fear even if his family members were implicated.

After withdrawing from the court, the more Shen Xihe thought about it, the more something was wrong. If this person was so confident, there must be a bigger secret hidden behind him.Xiao Huayong stared at the case file for a moment and suddenly discovered that the Yu Zao in front of him was a fake.The two of them followed this clue and dug deeper, and sure enough they discovered that not even half of Yu Zao Tanmo's money was sent to his relatives in his hometown. All of it went to Yuzhou, thousands of miles away, where his real family members were hiding.

The next day, the two of them went to jail again, saying "You really don't care about the lives of the children in the Yuzhou family", which shattered all the fake defense lines at once.He finally confessed that Zhen Yuzao had been intercepted by gangsters on his way to office two years ago. In the past two years, he had assumed his identity and had been secretly cooperating with the mastermind behind the scenes to commit corruption and pervert the law. Recently, he was planning to abscond with the money, and the source of all the plans was the long-missing British citizen.Two years ago, the British man secretly interacted with Hu Shang and purchased a rare and strange poison from him. Later, when he saw that Hu Shang was becoming more and more domineering and difficult to control, he had the idea of ​​​​killing people to silence him. However, he was poisoned by Hu Shang instead, and he escaped in embarrassment.

After being poisoned, the British citizen suffered from severe pain every day. Soon after, he disappeared mysteriously and could not be found by the government and the public.All the people who suffered in the mines were properly treated, and the imperial court distributed pensions according to their names. Xiao Huayong deliberately chose a high ground to erect monuments to commemorate the innocent souls who died. He also struck a new rule while the iron was hot: if any people were unjustly imprisoned in the future, they could appeal directly to the higher level.Seeing that the prince behaved so appropriately, Mo Yu couldn't help but say good things to him in front of Shen Xihe in private, hoping that the two of them could resolve their knot soon.

But Shen Xihe never let go of his forgiveness, and Xiao Huayong was not discouraged. He simply stayed by Shen Xihe's side every day, refusing to leave even half a step away, by tracing the origin of the British Duke's whereabouts.At the same time, Bu Shulin casually disparaged Cui Jinbai in front of Xie Yunhuai, but turned around and saw Cui Jinbai standing in the corridor, listening to everything he said.She immediately blushed and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize, but Cui Jinbai just put the snacks he brought on the stone table, turned around and left.

Jinshan, who was following behind, took it upon himself to give Cui Jinbai the snack box prepared by Bu Shulin. There was also a beauty album hidden in the box.Cui Jinbai opened it without knowing what was going on, and his ears burned red.Bu Shulin then chased him out in a panic, grabbed the box, hesitantly said that he had given it to the wrong person, and ran away without looking back while holding the box.

Soon after, Xie Yunhuai accidentally saw her father secretly purchasing a large amount of antidote medicine. Suspicion arose in her mind, and she concluded that the matter was closely related to the missing British minister.Regardless of the estrangement between father and son for many years, he insisted on taking the risk to return home. Ever since his mother died of illness and his father remarried, the two of them had been in the same situation for a long time. Going back this time was obviously a sheep in a tiger's mouth.A few days later, the boy from the medical clinic hurriedly came to report that Xie Yunhuai had never left the house since he returned to Duke Xie's house.

Shen Xihe immediately prepared a message to visit the Duke's mansion, but was turned away by the concierge on the grounds that the Duke was ill.She simply used the excuse of losing her beloved cat to break in, and secretly ordered Mo Yu to secretly place a gold medal given by the emperor into the Xie family ancestral hall.After hearing the news, Xie Guogong came with a large number of servants to stop them. Shen Xihe directly showed off the more than a hundred guards given by the Holy Emperor. Seeing that the other party still refused to let go, he deliberately made a big fuss and attracted Jing Zhaoyin to the scene, claiming in front of everyone that he wanted to recover the gold medal given by the Holy Emperor.

Jing Zhaoyin did not dare to offend the two, so he had to accompany the two of them to search the house, and found the Xie family ancestral hall all the way. As expected, the gold medal was clearly placed on the altar table.Shen tide and Du were sure that there must be a secret room near the ancestral hall. Xiao Huayong dug out the old architectural drawings of Duke Xie's mansion and saw at a glance that the river behind the mansion leads directly to the secret pier. There must be a secret room hidden under the pier.When the theft of the gold medal reached the imperial court, Shen Xihe changed the topic and said that he had lent the gold medal to Xie Yunhuai. Now that Xie Yunhuai was imprisoned by Duke Xie, the gold medal was naturally missing.

At the same time, Xiao Huayong led people to sneak into the secret room of the dock along the river, and not only rescued Xie Yunhuai, who had been under house arrest for many days, but also found the British father hiding here.The British male dog jumped over the wall and stabbed with a blade, but it was no match for Xiao Huayong and was subdued in a few strokes.Xiao Huayong and the two of them rushed back to the court. Xie Yunhuai stated in court how he was placed under house arrest by his father. However, Xie Guogong still spoke eloquently, saying that it was just an ordinary dispute between father and son.

In the end, the Holy Emperor did not take any serious blame, but only gave Xie Guogong half a year's salary as a symbolic penalty, and the case was brought to an end for the time being.
