Prefect Yu brought the Government Office forensic doctor and a group of Jin Sect officials to the Prince's mansion. Prince Changting was overwhelmed with work, and had no time to deal with them. He ordered his staff to assist the Government Office forensic doctor in examining the body, while letting the others wait in the reception hall.
The officials, having nothing better to do, began arguing in the reception hall. One moment they were cursing the Celestial Heart Sect, the next they were sighing deeply. It was unclear whether they did so for the Crown Prince or for their own official hats.
Prefect Yu, who was still mostly black-haired, had turned gray overnight.
The Crown Prince had met with an accident on his watch. Regardless of whether they could redeem themselves later, they couldn't escape the blame for inadequate protection and poor governance.
Why was the Crown Prince safe elsewhere, but met with an incident in your territory?
