I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 751

Chapter 751: Chapter 282: Cooked Rice? The Only Beneficiary of the Chaotic Scene!

Hearing that familiar voice, Chen Mo turned his head to see a figure in white gracefully approaching.

"Mr. Chen."

Xu Qingyi came before the two, casting a glance at Lin Jingzhu at the side, "Lin Catcher is here as well."

This was the Empress’s niece, who often frequented the palace, so Xu Qingyi naturally recognized her, but she did not recognize Xu Qingyi.

Lin Jingzhu curiously asked, "Who might this be...?"

Before Chen Mo could introduce, Xu Qingyi proactively said, "Xu Qingyi, Director of the Palace Justice Department."

"So it’s Director Xu." Lin Jingzhu nodded slightly, vaguely feeling that the name sounded familiar, but couldn’t recall where she had heard it.

Xu Qingyi casually asked, "Are you two together for some purpose? May I ask what brings you here?"

"We just happened to meet." Chen Mo didn’t want to bring up the incident at Changning Pavilion, so he explained, "Lin Catcher is interested in the Prince Yu case, so we chatted a bit."

"I see."

Xu Qingyi did not press further, saying, "Speaking of the Prince Yu Mansion case, I have some documents here I’m preparing to send over, which might be helpful for the case."

With that, she took out a stack of documents from her sleeve and handed them to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo flipped through them briefly and discovered it was the Yellow Register from the Imperial Clan Court.

As a royal relative, Prince Yu did not need to have everything scrutinized like the Emperor, but important matters like rituals, court sessions, achievements, and transgressions needed periodic summaries entered into the Yellow Register.

The Imperial Clan Court would review these to ensure no breaches of protocol occurred.

Though these documents weren’t original, every detail was meticulously transcribed, covering even minutiae like building specifications, servant numbers, and the use of carriages and horses.

"Thank you, Director Xu. These are very helpful to me." Chen Mo said seriously.

The Imperial Clan Court handles royal affairs and is heavily guarded, so acquiring these documents must have taken considerable effort.

Xu Qingyi, hands clasped behind her, softly said, "As long as they are useful. If you ever need help, you can always come find me in the palace."

"Alright." Chen Mo nodded.

Lin Jingzhu’s sharp eyes darted between the two.

Their relationship was clearly unusual. Why was a palace female officer so close to Chen Mo?

Wait a minute...

Suddenly, a spark flashed in her mind.

"I remember Huashan mentioned a while ago that the Crown Prince gifted a female officer to Chen Mo, supposedly someone from the Palace Justice Department, surnamed Xu... Is it her?"

"No wonder she’s so attentive to Chen Mo’s matters!"

Realizing who she was, Lin Jingzhu suddenly felt on alert.

But since Xu Qingyi was aiding in the investigation, she couldn’t comment further, only subtly shifted to stand a little closer to Chen Mo.

Xu Qingyi seemed to notice, slightly narrowing her eyes, she shifted the conversation, asking, "Mr. Chen, did you prepare the item you promised me?"

Chen Mo was puzzled, "What item?"

"The storybooks, of course."
