Chapter 134 Cleansing the House



After the others left, Su Wanyan looked at the eunuch kneeling on the ground.

He lowered his brows, looking speechless.

Su Wanyan flipped through the notebook again, thought for a while, and then threw the notebook in front of him: "Add a sentence to it, 'The Prince Gong's Mansion has invited a divine physician to treat the prince.'"

With so many medicinal herbs listed in this notebook, it's unrealistic to try and hide the fact that Yu Nanqing was being treated.

But to say that a miracle doctor was hired in the Prince's mansion is utter nonsense.

There have been very few people coming and going from the Prince's residence lately. If anyone does come, it's just servants hired by Wang Zhang. If this matter is reported to Emperor Yuanhe, he will definitely send someone to investigate. In the end, no matter what he finds, the mix of true and false information will only make him more anxious.

Upon hearing this, the man trembled.

Su Wanyan ignored his expression and called out, "Someone come here."

Xiao Bu entered: "Your Majesty?"

"Serve me with pen and ink."

Xiao Bu brought over the brush and ink.

Su Wanyan watched as that person added the words.

She didn't punish the man afterward, but simply had him deliver the notebook to the palace.

The messenger left the mansion amidst shock and confusion.

After the man left, Su Wanyan instructed Xiaobu: "If he comes back, just take care of him. You don't need to come and report."

"yes."

The main courtyard.

Everyone working in the main courtyard, whether maids or servants, was summoned to the courtyard.

Qiu Ye brought over a grand chair, and Su Wanyan lifted her skirt and sat down leisurely.

The servants gathered in the courtyard were unaware of what had happened. They whispered among themselves, some remaining silent and obedient, some curious, and some resentful.

Su Wanyan's gaze swept over the faces of these people one by one, and finally leaned back against the chair with a bored expression. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard Qiu Ye and Huang Ye say respectfully, "This servant greets Your Highness."

Um?

Su Wanyan turned around and saw Yu Nanqing sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by Tanaka as he slowly walked out of the house.

"Let me take a look." As if afraid that Su Wanyan would blame him, Yu Nanqing spoke first: "I'm just coming and going in the courtyard, I'm not going anywhere else."

Hearing the commotion outside, he couldn't stay inside any longer.

Didn't Su Wanyan say that we could walk around in the yard?

So he hesitated for a long time before finally letting Tanaka push him out to see.

"I didn't say you couldn't see it." Su Wanyan chuckled.

Lai Qu is currently handling matters within his household. Once she's gone, he'll have to learn to manage things on his own.

Then she thought again, he was a prince, he should be better at handling these things than she was.

Just then, someone couldn't help but speak up, their eyes revealing impatience: "Why did Your Majesty summon us here? We still have a lot of work to do. Such a big fuss is wasting everyone's time."

Su Wanyan looked at the maid who had spoken. She was quite beautiful, with makeup on her face, and her attire was not as ordinary as that of the other maids.

After Wang Zhang and his group entered the mansion, the mansion was divided into two factions: one was Yu Nanqing's faction, and the other was naturally Emperor Yuanhe's faction.

If these two groups had any disagreements, Emperor Yuanhe's people usually had the upper hand.

There was no other reason than that one was a king and the other a subject.

Su Wanyan didn't care because, given the current situation at Prince Gong's Mansion, even if these people made a fuss, they wouldn't dare to cause too much trouble.

Moreover, there was a precedent that Emperor Yuanhe had executed all the maids and servants in the mansion because she went to the palace to complain, so they dared not make a scene in front of Su Wanyan.

So those were all minor incidents that Wang Zhang could handle on his own.

Judging from this maid's attire, she's probably a minor leader in the household.

When other people entered the manor, it was normal for them to both resist and form cliques.

Clearing her mind of all distractions, Su Wanyan spoke slowly: "You should all know that His Highness's health has always been poor, so he has always turned a blind eye to some of your actions. The reason I have gathered you here today is to cleanse the house!"

These words immediately amplified the discussion in the courtyard.

"What? Purge the sect?"

"What does that mean? What is she trying to do?"

The maid who had spoken earlier immediately retorted, "Your Highness, don't forget that we were all sent to the Prince's residence by the Emperor!"

"Hmm." Su Wanyan responded lightly, "People have brought this up with me before."

She smiled slowly: "It's because you keep mentioning that you were sent by the Emperor that I'm so annoyed."

"What do you mean?" The maid stared, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

"This is Prince Gong's residence! If you obey the Emperor, then go back to your palace!" Su Wanyan said coldly, looking at the five soldiers who came to pledge their loyalty: "You can decide who should be kept and who should be eliminated."

Upon hearing this, the five soldiers were all startled.

Anyone can swear an oath, anyone can say words of loyalty; what Su Wanyan wants to see are their actions.

Arresting a messenger eunuch can also be seen as a way for them to show their loyalty. Since they are going to work for her, they are responsible for purging all those who have disloyal intentions!

Once they take action, none of Emperor Yuanhe's people in this mansion will have any further dealings with them, and Emperor Yuanhe will regard them as thorns in his side.

They had no way out.

"You have no right to do this!" the maid shouted, glaring at her. "Even if I have done something wrong, we should be punished by the Emperor!"

Su Wanyan ignored the maid's words. After saying the last sentence, she leisurely rested her elbow on the armrest, gently propped her chin up, and waited for the outcome of the event.

After hesitating for a moment, the soldiers gritted their teeth and stepped forward to seize the screaming maid.

"What are you doing! Let me go! Get out of my way!"

However, no matter how much she screamed, it was to no avail. Her knee was kicked hard, and she screamed "Ah—" before collapsing to her knees in front of Su Wanyan.

Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back.

They knew that once they were loyal to Su Wanyan, she would not allow them to have any second thoughts!

"No! Spare me! Your Highness, spare me!"

"Ah—don't come any closer! Let me go!"

With each struggle, more and more maids and servants were brought out.

If they don't listen, give them a punch or a kick, and even the most energetic person will be rendered useless.

There were five people: three were responsible for arresting people, and two were responsible for watching the people kneeling on the ground to prevent them from causing trouble.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!" A maidservant crawled on her knees in a panic before Su Wanyan: "This servant is willing to serve Your Highness! This servant is willing to serve Your Highness! Your Highness, spare my life!"

Upon hearing this, the cowardly maids began to crawl to Su Wanyan, begging for her mercy.
