Xingchun agreed solemnly and left with a determined look on his face. The group of guards instantly felt confident.

"Who on earth did such a bastard thing? Come out now!"

"That's right! Don't wait for Miss Xingchun to come over with the medicine and catch you red-handed!"

"Hey, Zhao Laosan, is that you? Why didn't I see you last night?"

The guards pointed fingers at each other and there was a rough chattering for a while.

Helian Yu's eyes fell on the eunuchs: "There is no medicine that can test hands. So... chop them all off!"

The eunuchs were trembling all over, and the smell of urine was spreading.

Chang An was most familiar with this smell. When he was still a little eunuch with no identity or status, he had no spices that could suppress the smell of humiliation.

At that time, if he met a palace maid or eunuch of a slightly higher status, their contemptuous look would be like a blunt knife, cutting into his flesh inch by inch.

Chang An whispered to the eunuch beside him: "Go get some incense, spices, and a jade fan."

After giving the order, Chang An stepped forward and bent over: "Your Highness, can you move them further away?"

Although Helian Yu was playful, she was forced to learn some skills by Xie Rangchen. When she smelled the scent, she surrendered.

"Take them to change their clothes, take care of them and bring them back—"

The eunuchs were about to be moved.

"Chop your hands."

After hearing Helian Yu's last two words, he was instantly unmoved and even dared not move.

"If you change your clothes and the guards testify, you will be safe."

Helian Yu propped up his chin and pulled Chang An's sleeve with a smile: "Do you think they will admit it?"

"Yes. As long as we find the guard, he will testify against the eunuch. People always want to find someone to take the blame before they die."

Chang An ordered the incense, spices and jade fans to be brought over. He told the young eunuchs to light the incense and use the jade fans to fan away the urine smell.

He didn't want his master to smell that smell, and he himself didn't want to smell it either.

The fragrance spreads, filling the imperial road with fragrance.

The imperial concubine who rushed over was feeling uneasy, not knowing what the smell was and what unexpected things were waiting for her.

The Imperial Concubine arrived and asked hurriedly, "Zhaoyang, where is the little girl who suffered so much?"

The little palace maid with tear marks on her face stood up and knelt on the ground: "I, Xiancao, pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine."

"Get up quickly."

The Imperial Concubine asked Dai Yan to help Xiancao up.

The Imperial Concubine comforted Xiancao for a few words and walked towards Helianyu: "Zhaoyang, this happened because I didn't discipline you strictly and made a mistake. Leave this matter to me and I will give you an explanation."

"No need, it will be done soon." Helian Yu waved his hand, "If your majesty feels indebted, why not compensate Xiancao with some personal belongings?"

The Imperial Concubine glanced at Dai Yan and said, "Go and do it."

"clear."

"The Emperor has arrived——"

As soon as the words "The Emperor has arrived" were heard, the guards became more anxious, fearing that they would anger the Emperor.

Helian Yu stood up from the throne and ran over: "Father! Why are you here? Aren't you busy?"

"It seems that I am late." Helian Su was overwhelmed when he saw the chaotic scene.

"No, no!" Helian Yu waved his hand, "You can't help if you come too early."

Helian Su shouted: "Don't force me to kick you!"

Helian Yu snorted and took a few steps back: "Father is really scary!"

"I've never seen you fear me!"

"Father, do you want me to feed you? Okay, okay, feed Father porridge at lunch!"

Helian Su: "..."

Helian Yu made jokes and successfully dragged the eunuchs back.

Seeing that the time given to the guards was up, Helian Yu gave Chang An a wink.

The guards did push out a man.

"I am innocent! I am innocent!"

The little guard who was pushed out struggled constantly.

Xingchun: “???”

Really want to test it? But she doesn't know how! Helian Yu mouthed to her: It's not him.

Xingchun understood immediately and took the guard away with confidence.

The guards on the spot had different expressions, some were relieved, some were worried.

Helian Yu waited lazily until Xingchun came back.

"Is it him?" Helian Yu asked.

The guards and eunuchs were full of anticipation, hoping to protect his vitals and hands.

"My Lord, no."

After the word "no" came out, Helian Yu said regretfully: "It doesn't matter if it's not. Take all the guards for inspection. If nothing is found this time, don't castrate them. Just execute them for deceiving the emperor."

"Since you don't even admit your guilt in front of our father, why not kill all your clans!"

Helian Yu made a 'friendly' suggestion, looking at the guard she suspected. She saw that he was also panicking and even had cold sweats. In contrast, the other guards all breathed a sigh of relief.

They believe that the medicine that can awaken youth can indeed be detected.

They also believed that the emperor would exterminate all nine generations of their clan because he favored Princess Zhaoyang.

So, those who should panic should panic, and those who shouldn’t panic should calm down.

At this point in the play, Helian Su also understood what Helian Yu meant.

"Chang Hai, bring the person out."

Helian Su was not used to wasting time, so he immediately ordered Chang Hai to drag the person out.

The guard had high cheekbones, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looked difficult to get along with.

After being dragged out, he kowtowed endlessly: "Your Majesty, spare my life! Your Majesty, spare my life! Please, Your Majesty, spare this servant! This servant is possessed by a ghost, please have mercy on me--"

"That's enough." Helian Yu scolded, "You forced the fairy grass, not the emperor. Who are you apologizing to?"

The corner of Helian Su's eyes twitched. He looked at Helian Yu with a complicated expression and sighed heavily.

Why didn't the Imperial Master teach her to change her bad habit of speaking without restraint?

Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, the guard suddenly remembered the old eunuch. His eyes widened in anger and he raised his finger to point at the old eunuch who was shaking like a sieve.

"It was him! He started it first!"

"Chang Hai, you personally hand them over to the Ministry of Punishment for disposal." Helian Su's move gave Helian Yu enough face.

After this turmoil passed, the six palaces were peaceful again for a while.

After all, no one wants to cause trouble at the center of the storm. If Princess Zhaoyang is injured or involved, wouldn't she be dead without a burial place? The concubines in the palace are not all smart people. They are jealous of Princess Zhaoyang's favor, but they also cherish their lives and dare not provoke her.

Fengyang Pavilion.

The nights in December were chilly and the plum blossoms were in full bloom, adding some liveliness to the palace.

"Master, Concubine Liu had a miscarriage and gave birth to a stillborn baby." Chang An came in to report.

Helian Yu propped up his chin and asked, "Is she in poor health, or did someone harm her?"

"Chang An doesn't know." Chang An didn't know medicine and couldn't answer.

"How many brothers and sisters do I have?" Helian Yu became curious.

"Only Lady Xue's eighth prince was born at the end of last year."

"Father's offspring are not prosperous~" Helian Yu sighed, "But the crown prince and his brothers are all very capable, so they are not useless. It doesn't matter whether they are prosperous or not."

"But... Father, there are many concubines in the palace... Is he physically ill?"

Chang An hurriedly stopped him: "Master, be careful with your words."

"Okay! It might be a conspiracy in the palace! The palace is too dangerous. Let's go back to the Imperial Master's Mansion tomorrow." - The news of Concubine Liu's miscarriage was delivered to the Liu family, and they asked someone from the Liu family to send a visit.

Lord Liu is a confused person. In order to get close to the Crown Prince, he went to the Crown Princess overnight and asked the pregnant Liu Qiuyue to enter the palace.

Liu Qiyue looked at her pregnant belly and raised her head sarcastically: "Father, do you think she hasn't had enough stimulation? He wants to send his pregnant daughter to the palace for some stimulation?"

The prince sat in the main seat with a complicated expression, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Liu Qiuyue was more scrutinizing.

After spending nearly a year together, he could see the changes in Liu Qiuyue.

From her free, stupid, and slow nature at the beginning to her calmness and thoughtfulness in dealing with people now, she is becoming more and more accustomed to the identity of a concubine.

The shackles on her body became stronger and stronger.
