Quick Wear: A skilled hunter is numb from being kissed by his prey

Chapter 121 Eunuch He is Really Not Good 17

The imperial concubine looked unhappy: "What nonsense are you talking about? There are so many foreign ministers here, but you are so careless in your words. It is true that you are of humble origin and cannot be on the stage."

Tsk, this expression naturally seemed as if he knew nothing at all, which made her even more suspicious that it was the imperial concubine who wanted to poison her.

Otherwise, given the imperial concubine's domineering personality, she should have asked her about the matter of menstruation instead of scolding her for covering it up.

Yun Zhiyue was scolded in public and was not embarrassed at all.

The good-tempered Wen Wan said: "I am not worthy of being on the stage, nor do I need to be. The Queen is the mother of the country, so there is no need for me to show off my dignity."

"I just want to make His Majesty happy. Isn't this what a concubine should do? What do you think, sister?"

This statement clearly states that the imperial concubine is also a concubine, just a plaything.

She was born as a princess of Dayan, but now she was being humiliated like this and she had no way to refute it. No matter how high the status of the imperial concubine was, it could not change the fact that she was a concubine.

"After saying so much, Yun Ji is still talking about something else. Your behavior makes me believe the words of the Minister."

"Come to think of it, Xu Wanyi only had a conflict with you when she entered the palace, so you do have a motive."

Yun Zhiyue covered her mouth with her hands while laughing tenderly, looking helpless: "I have already said that all I need to do is to make Your Majesty happy. Why would I do something unnecessary?"

"It is very simple to prove my innocence last night. Your Majesty can just ask Steward Luo. He was in my courtyard all night."

The imperial concubine was stunned.

Wen Ningmo was secretly shocked. It was just as he thought...

Feng Yu frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart...

The emperor turned around and asked in surprise: "Luo Bai, you really didn't follow me last night, why were you in Yun Ji's courtyard?"

Luo Bai met Yun Zhiyue's teasing eyes without any change in his expression.

"Your Majesty, you and Concubine Fang left after the horse race yesterday, and I don't know what happened next."

"The Imperial Concubine was delighted that Concubine Concubine was pregnant with a dragon heir. She was so excited that she grabbed Concubine Yunji's arm and hurt her. Unexpectedly, Concubine Yunji was equally excited, so she grabbed back. This was considered as insubordination, so the Imperial Concubine ordered that she be slapped thirty times in the face."

"Empress Yunji was frightened and had abdominal pain, but she refused to see the imperial physician. I knew that Your Majesty was busy taking care of the heir and was worried that something might happen to Empress Yunji at night, so I had to stay with her all night."

"I am sure that Madam Yunji went to bed early last night, and none of the maids and servants in the courtyard went out."

Yun Zhiyue's mouth twitched slightly. The dead were all said to be flowers, and they were still surprised and excited and pinching each other?

It is said that language is an art. These words are very beautifully embellished and those who listen to them can easily get the inside story.

The emperor's face darkened slightly. It was a huge matter for him to have an heir. If the concubines in the harem had other thoughts, he would never tolerate them.

Just as he was about to use this as an excuse to warn others, Feng Yu stepped forward and said with some difficulty: "Your Majesty, I may be able to provide some clues about Xu Wanyi's death."

"I didn't think much about it at first, but after hearing what Chief Steward Luo said, I suddenly remembered something. Last night..."

As Feng Yu continued to narrate, the imperial concubine's face gradually turned pale.

It turned out that Feng Yu was a half-witness last night. The temporary palace was different from the imperial palace. All the ministers brought lived in the temporary palace. Although it was far away from the imperial concubines, there was only one garden for them to play in.

Feng Yu couldn't sleep last night. He was admiring the moon alone in the garden. He faintly heard the sound of women arguing by the lake.

Regardless of his identity, as a man he had to be cautious in the middle of the night, so Feng Yu planned to leave.

Unexpectedly, the quarrel over there became louder and louder, and it seemed that a fight had started. He was afraid that something might happen, so he decided to move closer to ask a few questions.

When he approached, he just saw the profile of a maidservant and was startled by the words "This palace". It turned out that it was the concubine who was here, which would make it even more embarrassing for him to meet her.

Feng Yu thought that some concubine in one of the palaces was in a bad mood and was venting her anger by beating and scolding the maid in the middle of the night, so he left without thinking much about it.

Feng Yu looked apologetic: "Now that I think about it, that was the process of Xu Wanyi being victimized. I feel guilty. If I had stepped forward to intervene, perhaps nothing would have happened."

"Although I can't go back to save people last night, at least I can find the murderer. Steward Luo mentioned that the maidservant gave me inspiration. I still remember the maid's face, and I will definitely be able to find her."

Xu He, the Minister of Finance, knelt down hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please make a decision for my daughter!"

The emperor said with a stern face, "How dare you commit such a crime in public? Call all the servants here immediately and let the prince of Qin identify them one by one. There must be a mastermind behind such a bold move. I will never let him off easily."

Concubine Fang hugged the emperor's arm and asked in surprise, "Huh? Why does the Imperial Concubine look so grim?"

Everyone looked over.

Imperial Concubine Yan Mei smiled with a fake smile, "I didn't expect that there would be villains acting so arrogantly in the palace even though Your Majesty is here. It's really despicable. I'm just angry for Xu Wanyi."

"I see. What my sister said is absolutely right. Such despicable and filthy people should be skinned and their tendons pulled out as a warning to others. This is the only way to demonstrate the power of our Dafeng law."

The imperial concubine responded with a vicious look in her eyes and a fake smile on her face, which made Yun Zhiyue almost laugh out loud. This was really interesting.

Originally, it would not be so easy for the imperial concubine to be caught.

But this is a temporary palace, and the imperial concubine brought only a limited number of confidants with her. All the arrangements made before failed, and she had to kill people in a hurry to silence them, so naturally she was weak in the follow-up.

Furthermore, Feng Yu...

If they are targeting the Imperial Concubine like this, it is probably because they are in cahoots with the Queen's lineage, which is normal.

The Queen has the support of the Prime Minister, who is the head of all officials. Although the Imperial Concubine has a special and noble status, she is a princess of another country after all and can't be of much help to him. It is obvious what choice he will make.

As the attendants were called one by one, the imperial concubine's initially unpleasant expression gradually faded.

Before people had even watched half of the film, another murder occurred. It was said that a palace maid hanged herself.

The emperor slammed the table in anger and said, "How dare you! Let me check whether it was self-inflicted or suicide out of fear of punishment!"

Concubine Fang's eyes were dark: "Which palace is that maid from?"

The attendant glanced at the imperial concubine and whispered tremblingly, "It's...it's Pingyang Palace."

"Ah! She is actually the concubine's maid. This is..."

Facing the emperor's angry eyes, Imperial Concubine Yan Mei slowly stepped down from the platform and saluted: "Your Majesty, I am innocent. All the maids I brought to the palace are now in the palace."

"The maid who committed suicide must have belonged to the temporary palace. What does Pingyang Palace have to do with me? I am just living in the temporary palace temporarily. Your Majesty, please do not wrongly accuse me."

The emperor's expression relaxed slightly, but since Feng Yu had spoken, he would not let the imperial concubine have an easy time.

Qing Jun said with disapproval on his face: "Your Majesty, I forgot to mention one thing just now. Before I left last night, I vaguely heard the palace maid say that she would enter the palace soon to fight for her career."

"At that time, I thought that she was scolded by the concubines for speaking without thinking. Now I think that someone must have promised her benefits by bringing her into the palace, so she would do such a bold thing."

"In that case, Your Majesty can check the list of attendants in the palace to see which noble wanted this maid."

Imperial Concubine Yan Mei's expression changed in shock, she lost her composure, she knelt before the Emperor spoke, her voice trembling as she said, "Your Majesty..."
