The Hidden Villain

The next day, Crown Prince Xiao Yuhan arrived at the Ministry of Justice. A tired Xiao Moxian welcomed him into the main office.

"Moxian, you look exhausted. Did you stay up the entire night?" asked Xiao Yuhan.

"After such a huge incident occurred, it is my duty as the leader of the Ministry of Justice to deal with the aftermath. There are still many things that I have to do."

"You should have notified me last night; perhaps I could have helped you."

"I appreciate the sentiment, but that was not something that Your Highness should be bothered for."

Xiao Yuhan shook his head. "No, Moxian. The entire case arose because of me, and Minister Wei was murdered because he was investigating my case. I cannot sit and do nothing while you all are working overtime. If there is anything I can do to help, please tell me."

Xiao Moxian nodded. "Well actually, I would like Your Highness's assistance moving forward."

"Anything, Moxian."
