Chapter 29 Suspicion of Fu Li
"Your Majesty, the ladies outside are here to complain that things in their respective palaces have been stolen."
"What? The harem's things were also stolen?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Not only were things stolen from the harem, but also from the Imperial Household Department. They were all emptied by the thieves last night."
After hearing this, the emperor looked like he was about to fall, which frightened Luo Ming and Zhou Fuhai. They rushed forward to support him and asked worriedly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!" The emperor waved his hand, sat down, looked at Zhou Fuhai, and ordered, "Let them go back first and tell them that I know about this."
"Yes!" Zhou Fuhai went out to pass on the message. The emperor looked directly at Luo Ming and asked, "Lord Luo, you just said you had an idea?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have always felt that this matter is related to the Yue family. So I want to test the Yue family, to alert the enemy, and then wait and see."
"Stopping the grass to alert the snake? Waiting for the rabbit by the tree stump?" The emperor was still puzzled. Luo Ming had no choice but to explain, "Your Majesty, to be honest, before Eunuch Zhou came to the palace to announce the decree, I planned to go to the prison. This is stirring the grass to alert the snake. As for waiting for the rabbit by the tree stump, I suspect the thief's next target is the national treasury. So Your Majesty, just surround the national treasury with heavy troops, and then you may be able to catch the thief."
"In that case, we, the king and his subjects, will act separately. You go and alert the enemy, and I will wait for them."
"Your humble servant obeys your order."
After leaving the palace, Luo Ming went straight to the prison.
Yue Fuli was a little surprised to see Luo Ming appear. Logically speaking, he was hit by a nightmare spell last night, so he should have been up all night. How did he still have time to run to the prison?
The people in the second house were terrified when they saw Luo Ming. They thought Luo Ming was going to torture them again and ask about the storehouse.
They really don’t know!
Just when the second house was feeling uneasy, they saw Luo Ming going straight to the first house.
Standing outside the cell, looking at the half-lying Yue Fuli, Luo Ming frowned. Could all this really be her doing?
Luo Ming wondered if he had made a mistake. He had been present from beginning to end when Yue Fuli was executed that day, and he knew how severe the punishment was.
How could a man so seriously injured empty his study and palace?
Or, was all this done by Yue family's accomplices?
But the emperor has long been keeping an eye on those families that have a good relationship with the Yue family, and they haven't taken any action?
The more he thought about it, the more confused Luo Ming became. However, since he was here, he naturally wouldn't just take a look. So, he looked to the side and said, "Doctor Liu, please help me."
Seeing the imperial physician, the old lady and the children were very happy, thinking that he really came to treat Yue Fuli's injury.
Only Yue Fuli looked a little unhappy. She hadn't expected Luo Ming to be so mean as to bring a royal doctor to examine her.
If she hadn't understood why Luo Ming had come before, now it was crystal clear. She had to admit, Luo Ming had a pretty good head on his shoulders. He'd already suspected her so quickly.
Fortunately, she was well prepared, otherwise her weakness would have been exposed if the imperial physician had taken her pulse.
Thinking of this, Yue Fuli immediately released her substitute, and she herself became invisible.
Doctor Liu stepped forward to feel Yue Fuli's pulse, his brow furrowed. This body had been severely injured, and he probably wouldn't live for many days.
At the age of a flower, it is about to wither.
What a pity.
