Dongfang Xunyi nodded and said, "Well, what happened?"
"In reply to the emperor, I have learned that two major events have occurred in the general's mansion. The first is that the concubine that Master Chen recently took in appeared in a young man's room on the wedding night and was caught in bed by Master Chen. He was so angry that he wanted to drown the concubine in a pond to vent his anger."
The secret guard did not dare to hide anything, and he reported to Dongfang Xunyi truthfully what he saw and heard in the mansion.
The first thing Dongfang Xunyi heard when the secret guard said this was a familiar scene from his childhood flashing before his eyes.
His mother, Princess Ning, was caught by his father for the same thing when he was young and ignorant.
Prince Ning was very angry at that time.
I was too young at that time and could only watch my mother sink.
"Then what?" Dongfang Xunyi narrowed his eyes and then asked.
The secret guard recalled and replied: "The Queen Mother showed up at the critical moment."
"The Queen Mother?"
Dongfang Xunyi frowned when he heard the secret guard's answer.
"Go on." He saw the secret guard stopped and realized that he had interrupted him.
Dongfang Xunyi moved his lower lip.
"Finally, the Empress Dowager spoke up and cited the decree issued on the day the Emperor ascended the throne, which stated that the punishment of drowning women in a pond had been abolished. If Master Chen did not stop, he would be breaking the law knowingly.
There was a second thing. The Queen Mother summoned all the servants in the General's Mansion and sent someone to take out the documents and deeds of the mansion. She declared in a stern manner that from now on, the General's Mansion of the Li family would belong only to the Li family, and everyone would only obey the Queen Mother.
After that, the Queen Mother took out a letter of divorce and immediately told everyone that she had no relationship with Master Chen. She claimed that she did not have a father like Master Chen.
The secret guard continued to narrate what he had seen and heard without stopping.
After saying everything, he felt his mouth was dry.
I had to swallow my saliva to moisten my throat.
After Dongfang Xunyi heard this, the groove between his brows never smoothed out again.
If not for sending the secret guards to the general's mansion.
He was kept in the dark about what happened to Li Xia in there.
According to her personality, Li Xia would not take the initiative to tell him the truth.
"Does the emperor have any other instructions?" Seeing that Dongfang Xunyi remained silent for a long time, the secret guard licked his lips and asked.
He waited with his head bowed.
When Dongfang Xunyi heard the voice of the secret guard, his eyes moved and he came back to his senses.
He waved his hand, "It's alright, you can leave first."
Dongfang Xunyi opened his thin lips slightly.
"Yes, I will take my leave."
The secret guard raised his hands and clasped them together. He hid in the dark, secretly protecting the safety of Dongfang Xunyi.
