Chapter 235: The Evil Concubine (9)

At noon, Eunuch Cai arrived at the Chaoyang Palace with the imperial edict granting marriage.

Everyone in the Chaoyang Palace knelt down to listen to the edict, all of them were beaming with joy, except for Old Lady Gao, who looked happy but worried.

Although Old Lady Gao had served two dynasties, she did not dare to question the emperor's mind as a woman. Therefore, she was always worried whether Emperor Ping knew about the substitution in the Chaoyang Palace. Now that Emperor Ping granted marriage to Prince Zhaoyang, he was acting like a monarch. If the substitution was revealed, they in the Chaoyang Palace might implicate Prince Zhaoyang. At that time, Emperor Ping would have an excuse to attack Prince Zhaoyang.

Eunuch Cai noticed the old lady's strange behavior and kept it in mind. As soon as he returned to the palace, he immediately reported this strange thing to Emperor Ping.

After listening to what he said, Emperor Ping made a light note on the memorial and let him go.

Eunuch Cai felt that he was increasingly unable to understand the current emperor.

After reviewing the memorials, Emperor Ping went to Weirui Palace as usual.

At the gate of Weirui Palace, he met Wang Shuyi, who had been claiming to be ill for a long time.

"Your Majesty, you have to stand up for me." Wang Shuyi rushed out and knelt on the ground when she saw Emperor Ping's sedan chair, looking so pitiful with tears in her eyes.

"How can you shout loudly inside the palace walls?" Emperor Ping got off the sedan chair and glanced at it lightly. Wang Shuyi, who was originally ready to cry loudly to show her grievance, immediately shut her mouth tactfully.

"Your Majesty, I am really wronged." Wang Shuyi flattened her mouth and looked at him aggrievedly. Little did she know that her appearance was only above average, but her figure was taller and stronger than that of ordinary palace concubines. It was really funny to make such a gesture. As a result, Cai Gong, who was beside Emperor Ping, couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, Cai Gong knew that Wang Shuyi was the most vindictive person, so he laughed with his head down and in a low voice.

"If you have any grievances, we can talk about them tomorrow. I am very tired today." Emperor Ping was about to step into the threshold of Weirui Palace, but Wang Shuyi hugged his thigh.

Emperor Ping was stunned, Eunuch Cai was stunned, the eunuch carrying the sedan chair was stunned, and even Shi Yi and the maids who served him were stunned.

After all, the palace is full of etiquette, and there has never been a bold and rough person like Wang Shuyi.

Wang Shuyi smiled and pulled back her hand in the stunned expressions and eyes of everyone, and said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, I really have grievances."

"Since you have grievances, just say it."

Eunuch Cai secretly glanced at Emperor Ping's face, which was dark, and he knew that he was really angry. It was also Wang Shuyi's fault for not knowing the tact. Emperor Ping came to Weirui Palace just to relieve his boredom and deliberately blocked the door of Weirui Palace to make things difficult.

"Your Majesty..." Wang Shuyi touched her knees, signaling him to wake her up first, but Emperor Ping pretended not to see it and moved his eyes to the edge of the palace wall.

"Your Majesty, I want to expose the affair between Gao Shurong of Weirui Palace and Prince Zhaoyang." Wang Shuyi's words shocked everyone present.

Eunuch Cai was stunned for a long time and looked up at Emperor Ping's face, and found that he was indifferent, without any anger. Could it be that Emperor Ping was replaced? The king who was so concerned about Prince Zhaoyang's every move was now indifferent.

He looked up at Gao Shurong, who was framed by Wang Shuyi on the spot, and found that her expression was also indifferent, without any panic. Was Gao Shurong's level high and psychological quality good, or was what Wang Shuyi said simply nonsense? He was a little confused.

"Go on." Emperor Ping raised his eyelids, his eyes full of fatigue.

Shi Yi saw the opportunity and walked to his side silently, gently pressing the acupuncture points on his hand.

"Gao Shurong, don't think that you have been pretending for so long that no one knows about the scandals between you and Prince Zhaoyang. I will expose you now and make you and the Chaoyang Palace doomed." Wang Shuyi thought that Emperor Ping's fatigue was his disappointment in Shi Yi, and her face was full of pride.

"Wang Shuyi, just say whatever you want to say. I am upright and honest." Shi Yi smiled gently.

Wang Shuyi was so angry at her brilliant smile that she almost spilled the evidence she found.

"Gao Shurong came from the Chaoyang Palace. She and Prince Zhaoyang naturally fell in love, but because of her status, Gao Shurong had to enter the palace. After entering the palace, Prince Zhaoyang missed her day and night and sneaked into the palace to visit her several times. If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can immediately send someone to investigate the Yunfang Palace where Gao Shurong lived when she first entered the palace to see if there is a secret passage under the side hall that leads to the bottom of the city wall." As

soon as he heard her mention the Yunfang Palace, Shi Yi's eyebrows raised slightly. At the beginning, when Prince Zhaoyang entered Yunfang Palace several times, she felt that Prince Zhaoyang wanted her dead. Now it seems that Prince Zhaoyang's move is indeed to kill her. Because this secret passage is real, once it is found out by Emperor Ping, no matter what she says, she will not be trusted.

Emperor Ping paid attention to the expression of his favorite concubine. Seeing her eyebrows slightly raised and thoughtful, he did not interrupt her or even explain desperately, but his heart was secretly settled.

If she really had something to do with Wei Zhao, she would not be like this now, but would cry and humble herself and say that she was wronged.

"Do you have any evidence? Tell me all at once." Emperor Ping took the initiative to hold Shi Yi's wrist, and everyone present could see his attitude. Shi Yi felt goose bumps all over her body. The favorite concubine was exposed to have an affair with the most jealous emperor's brother. Not only did she not have any temper, but she also acted as if she trusted the favorite concubine unconditionally. She really looked like a brainless and incompetent monarch, which was inconsistent with the image of Emperor Ping she had come into contact with.

"I don't have any other evidence, but Your Majesty can send someone to find the secret passage now, and that will prove that what I said is true." Wang Shuyi was also scared, because she couldn't tell what Emperor Ping's attitude was towards this matter.

She and her trusted maid had been locked up in her palace for more than a month, carefully planning, before finding this evidence that would kill Gao Shurong in one fell swoop, but now it seems that the emperor doesn't mind at all.

"Go." Based on his understanding of Emperor Ping, Eunuch Cai gently waved to the eunuchs serving on both sides of the palace wall and asked them to investigate.

"No need to go." Emperor Ping's light words shocked everyone present again.

"Your Majesty..." Wang Shuyi thought he was going to favor Shi Yi, and her face was distorted.

"Yunfang Palace is next to this remote city wall, and it is remote and has been in disrepair for many years, so no one cares about it. So no one will pay attention to the secret passage leading to Yunfang Palace on the city wall. You and Prince Zhaoyang are really good at getting along." Emperor Ping's direct rebuke made Shi Yi confused.

Because what he said seemed to have been investigated long ago.

Wang Shuyi laughed heartily.

God is really watching over us. It turns out that the emperor had already begun to suspect.
