Chapter 83 The Turntable



After Emperor Kangxi arrived, they no longer needed to worry about the matter. Emperor Kangxi made a decisive decision to have Lady Hitara suppressed and then carefully investigated her interpersonal relationships, which implicated several people in the Imperial Household Department.

At the same time, the Hitara clan was taken to the Shenxing Division.

With the methods of the Shenxing Division, even the King of Hell himself would have to suffer greatly before he could leave.

As expected, Lady Hitara revealed everything she had done over the years, including some of the shady dealings within the Imperial Household Department. Her decades in the palace hadn't been in vain; she had been involved in or knew about many of the department's top secrets.

Emperor Kangxi used this opportunity to thoroughly reorganize the Imperial Household Department, eradicate its malignant elements, and remove several of its chief stewards from office.

Aside from the problems of the Imperial Household Department, Jingrou was concerned about the princess's situation. Then, Yinreng presented all the things he had investigated during this period. Since the Emperor already knew that he was investigating this matter in secret, there was no need to keep it hidden; he could bring it out into the open.

With the help of Emperor Kangxi, Yinreng had already investigated the matter thoroughly and compiled it into a booklet, which he then submitted. Jingrou had even handled these documents, as she had helped Yinreng create some tables that clearly recorded the princesses' situations and final whereabouts over the years, as well as the involvement of the nannies. The numbers and events were quite alarming.

Unbeknownst to them, over the years more than a dozen princesses have died under mysterious circumstances, some of whom are suspected of being controlled by their nannies.

He sacrificed half his life to send a foreign man to marry a foreign ruler in order to bring peace to the Qing Dynasty, but now the result is like this. How can people find peace of mind?

How could Emperor Kangxi possibly discuss the affairs of these princesses with his ancestors? Where would the dignity of the Qing Dynasty be then?

Emperor Kangxi was furious.

Then they really began to consider whether the custom of having nannies accompany the bride in marriage alliances was reasonable, and how much room for maneuver there was in it.

How did those old women outwardly comply but inwardly defy the authorities? And how did they act so recklessly and arrogantly after leaving the capital?

Those most concerned about the outcome of this matter and most furious were several princes from the Qing imperial family, most of whom had daughters or had daughters who had already been married off to Mongolia or were preparing to be married off to Mongolia…

How could they salvage their daughter's current situation in Mongolia, and whether it would be just as dire? And how could Hu Jun's wife be causing such a ruckus at home? This forced them to seek help from Emperor Kangxi.

Besides these, any minister with daughters in his family could not bear to read about this matter.

In addition, there were those with clever minds, especially some officials in the Ministry of Works, who actually set their sights on the various forms in Yinreng's booklet. Looking at those forms, their eyes lit up, as if they could already see the huge role these things would play in transporting grain or organizing other matters.

Therefore, in the end, this matter had a very large impact. Those officials who were diligent in their duties, those officials who had daughters at home, and even those princes who held high positions of power all paid close attention to this matter.

In the end, Emperor Kangxi came to the conclusion that the Empress Dowager's intention in arranging nannies by the princess's side was certainly good, but those unruly servants, over time, felt that the emperor was far away and that servants were too powerful to bully their masters.

In the end, to save face for the royal family, they didn't tell anyone about it, but the matter was thoroughly investigated and dealt with.

Those old women who had done bad things were all exposed one by one, and even several of them who were already enjoying their retirement years had their families implicated.

Just after Lady Hitara was sent away and the Imperial Household Department was thoroughly searched, Emperor Kangxi was furious and gave her a good dressing down. Jingrou was in Prince An's Mansion, swinging on a swing, when she suddenly heard the system's announcement: "Ding, 30% completion of a major task (long-term mission). The host has performed excellently and has been awarded 300 points, 2 random draws, and a silver gift box."

Jingrou's eyes lit up. The system was really generous this time! If it were any other time there were gift boxes or random draws, she would have received an extra lot of points!

And I've only completed 30% of this. Does this long-term mission mean I need to do several things well and achieve a lot of influence to complete it?

Jingrou was already rubbing her hands together excitedly. Even if this wasn't about completing a mission, but simply helping her good friend, Jingrou would still be willing.

Not to mention the generous reward they received.

Jingrou decided to wash her hands thoroughly with soap, then take a bath and burn incense before spinning the wheel and using up the random wheel rewards!

I'm so excited! She doesn't even know what's on the spinning wheel yet!

However, the system reminded her that the contents of the wheel would only be displayed when she was ready to use the opportunity, so Jingrou decided to be more cautious.
