Chapter 101 Propaganda
It took Yu Mofang ten years from entering the palace as a third-class imperial guard to being promoted to the commander of the imperial guards.
I know that catching an assassin requires skill.
At an important occasion like the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, quietly capturing the assassin is called a meritorious service.
If we start a war, causing panic among the people, or even allowing assassins to get close to Your Majesty or the Queen Mother, that would be dereliction of duty.
So he ordered his men to surround the side hall where the dressing room was located. Then he sneaked to the window and released smoke into the room. He thought the assassin should have fainted, so he broke into the room.
What caught my eye was a tall man dressed in the attire of an imperial guard, lying face down on the ground.
He made a "tsk" sound.
No wonder no one noticed even though they had sneaked into the locker room.
It turned out that he was impersonating their royal guard.
Fortunately, he released the smoke screen first, otherwise if he forced his way in, the scene would be in chaos and who would be able to tell who was a brother and who was an assassin?
Just as I was feeling relieved, I discovered that there was a woman under this man.
My heart suddenly sank.
The assassin even took a hostage.
He took out a rope, put it around the man's neck, tied his arms behind his back, and tied his legs and feet together.
Then he lifted the rope and tried to pull the man to the side to rescue the noble lady on the ground.
Who knew that when they were halfway through, they discovered that their lower bodies were connected.
"grass!"
He immediately let go, letting the man fall back to where he was.
He is actually a flower thief!
He is so bold that he even picked flowers in the palace.
I don’t know which noble lady fell victim to his murderous hands.
So pitiful.
He sighed.
He walked out of the dressing room, called a palace maid over, asked her to go in and lift the man's clothes, and tidy up the clothes for the noble lady before going in again to check.
This sight almost scared me to death.
The woman lying on the ground was actually Lady Lu!
Oh my god!
He even dared to pick flowers from His Majesty's harem. How much must this flower thief hate his entire clan!
He immediately looked at the man, wondering who this pervert was and how dare he be so bold.
It would be fine if I didn’t look at it, but once I did, my heart almost stopped.
It was Lu Yunjin!
Damn!
How could Lu Yunjin, such a decent man, do such a thing?
He squatted down and searched Lu Yunjin's head, face and neck repeatedly, but he couldn't find anything like a human skin mask.
He had to admit that this was Guard Lu under his command.
If the assassin is caught by one of our own, let him buy a piece of tofu and hit his head against it to death.
After tying up Lady Lu, he walked out of the locker room with a gloomy face and closed the door.
"Watch out, don't let even a fly in there!"
He ordered.
The guards all responded in unison.
He also warned the maid he had just called in to sort out the clothes: "If you want to live, don't say a word to anyone."
The maid nodded with a pale face.
Yu Mofang stood there with a cold face, waiting for the banquet to end.
What he didn't notice was that Lai Yuerong, who had just warned him, did not return to the banquet, but watched the movement in the locker room from a distance.
Seeing that he was planning to suppress this scandal, Lai Yuerong almost bit her back teeth to pieces.
She had been fooled by this adulterous couple for so long and her appearance had been ruined. How could she feel relieved just by having them caught?
At least their adultery should be made known to everyone and made to be despised by everyone!
After glancing coldly at Yu Mofang, she turned back to the banquet.
He didn't return to his seat immediately.
Instead, she walked towards the seat of Miss Lei San, who was the one she usually had the most bad blood with.
Miss Lei San was concentrating on drinking her soup when she suddenly felt a weight on her back and almost buried her entire face in the soup bowl.
When she found out that it was Lai Yuerong who had fallen on her, she was so angry that she pushed her to the ground.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to disfigure me?!"
She demanded sharply.
Lai Yuerong got up from the ground and said in a daze: "Sorry, I didn't notice."
"The sun is rising from the west today?" Miss Lei San mocked. "Miss Lai Er actually apologized to others?"
Under normal circumstances, Lai Yuerong would definitely quarrel with her.
At this moment, he seemed not to hear her words, muttering to himself: "You don't even know what I just saw..."
Miss Lei San sneered: "Did you see your Lu Lang talking to another woman?"
Lai Yuerong shook her head.
Tears welled up in my eyes.
"Lu Lang, he and Lu Meiren were doing that kind of thing in the locker room..."
"What?!"
Miss Lei San was shocked.
"Lu Yunjin and Lady Lu are having an affair?!"
She blurted out the words before she reacted and quickly covered her mouth, but everyone around her heard what she said.
They all looked over at the same time.
Miss Lei San said stubbornly, "You can take medicine casually, but you can't say anything carelessly. Spreading such rumors will harm your entire family. Don't say such nonsense here."
Lai Yuerong choked up and said, "I'm not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, go to the locker room and see. The imperial guards are guarding there. They've been arrested."
Miss Lei San: "!!!"
Everyone: “!!!”
Is it true?
They no longer had the appetite to eat. They felt as if there were a hundred rats in their hearts, and they were extremely anxious.
It’s just that it’s not easy to join in this kind of fun, which is really frustrating.
But they don't dare, others do.
The seats for the imperial concubines were not far away. Concubine Luo was unable to eat due to morning sickness and sat there listlessly throughout the entire birthday banquet. Suddenly, she heard about the affair between Concubine Lu and the guard, and her spirits suddenly perked up.
He immediately covered his mouth, pretended to vomit, stood up and left the table, and walked quickly towards the hall door.
Go straight to the side hall where the dressing room is.
Sure enough, the place was surrounded by guards, and the commander Yu Mofang was standing in the front with a frown on his face.
"Make way."
she urged.
"I'm going to rinse my mouth."
Yu Mofang's head is bigger than both of his heads.
"Empress Zhaoyi, there's a rat in this dressing room. Could you please rinse your mouth somewhere else?"
Luo Zhaoyi said with a cold face, "How can I bear to walk so far? Get out of the way. I'm not afraid of rats."
Yu Mofang frowned, "It's really not possible. You're pregnant. If something happens to you because of a rat, we can't take the responsibility."
Luo Zhaoyi sneered.
"Isn't it just the little thing about Concubine Lu and your imperial guard having an affair? The whole banquet knows about it, what are you acting for?"
Wha…what?!
Yu Mofang was stunned.
Luo Zhaoyi continued, "It's covered so tightly, could it be that you're involved as well?"
Great aunt!
Yu Mofang almost knelt down in front of her.
"Empress Zhaoyi, please forgive us! Lu Yunjin is Lu Yunjin, and we are us. Don't judge us all by the same standard."
If His Majesty hears this, he will have to be castrated.
Luo Zhaoyi smiled slightly. "So that's true. Well, it's better not to look at such an eye-catching thing."
She turned around and left happily.
Yu Mofang was dumbfounded.
Who leaked the news to the banquet?
In a flash, he remembered the lady who had asked him to catch the assassin!
I actually forgot about her.
The scandal has been publicized, what should I do...
Luo Zhaoyi didn't care whether he treated her cold or hot, she just thought that if His Majesty didn't deal with Concubine Lu, she would ask the Queen Mother to deal with her.
This kind of thing that defiles the palace deserves to be cut into pieces.
