Bab 122: Observing, Listening, Asking, and Examining

The Prince of Jing Estate was silent. The five-story Jasper Pavilion was like a lighthouse erected in the capital, with golden lights shining in the windows.

Outside the study on the top floor, the empress dowager, who was wearing a crimson nightgown, was standing beside the balcony railing. She was holding a telescope that had been tributed and looking at Parasol Street in the distance. The night wind blew the hem of her dress, faintly revealing her fair calves.

The study was brightly lit. Dongfang Liren was sitting behind her large desk with several stacks of files in front of her, writing and drawing on a small booklet.

Dongfang Li had been born as the second princess of the imperial family. She liked martial arts, but practicing martial arts and investigating cases were two different things. She hadn't had the chance to go out personally to handle cases, so she had never learned these things before.
