Zhang Xiaoying had mentioned this to Yu Yang as soon as she arrived in Beijing, and Yu Yang was in favor of it. He knew Liu Fang's skills, and he had already given a heads-up to the Ministry of Justice.
Being a coroner was different from being an official, so the Ministry of Justice was willing to do Yu Yang this favor and wouldn't make things difficult without good reason.
Liu Fang was getting on in years and was not really suited for long journeys. Zhang Xiaoying, of course, hoped she could rest well before discussing anything else.
The next day.
Zhang Xiaoying got up early to prepare for her visit to the Eastern Palace, but Jiaojiao had already run over to the Xu Mansion.
"Grandma, can I play with Sister Jinyu and the others?" Jiaojiao blinked her large eyes, looking at Zhang Xiaoying full of anticipation.
Zhang Xiaoying pinched her face, "Why didn't you sleep a little longer? They were probably tired from the journey yesterday. They won't be up so early today."
