Instead, he helped his sister become the emperor's woman in this way and enter the palace smoothly.
Eunuch Fuquan, who learned about this from the guards, didn't know where to start complaining for a moment.
In short, Gu Wang was plotted against by three women, but Ying Xixi took advantage of the situation.
As for these three women, Gu Wang banished two concubines to the cold palace, as for the other one.
Gu Wang spoke a few words to the girl's father, and that night, the girl's father quickly arranged a marriage for her with another man.
The matter of Gu Wang being hacked has been investigated, but no information has been found about who the woman was that night.
Gu Wang found the memory of asking the woman's name among those scattered memories.
But he tried hard to recall, but he couldn't remember what name the woman said.
As for the jade pendant, because the style was so common, the guards found no less than a hundred women in the capital who owned this kind of jade pendant.
Gu Wang was determined to find that woman, so he continued to have the guards check one by one.
Ever since Gu Wang lost his innocence to Ying Xixi, he would go to sit in the side hall every day, as if he was trying to recall the memory of that night, or as if he was reminiscing about something.
That day, when Gu Wang went to the side hall, he saw that there was no palace guard at the door. Without thinking much, he pushed the door open and went in, then closed it again.
He had just sat on the windowsill blocked by the screen for a while when he heard the sound of the door opening.
Gu Wang frowned and was about to ask who it was.
Then I heard the voice of someone talking.
"Hey, do you think the Emperor can find that woman from that night?"
A shrill and childish voice of a young eunuch was heard.
"Yes, the emperor is so powerful, he will definitely find it!
And, I think I know who that woman is!"
Another young eunuch's voice sounded mysteriously.
Hearing this, Gu Wang's heart skipped a beat. He breathed softly and listened carefully to the sounds outside the screen.
"Who is it? How do you know?"
"Don't talk about me. You must also know that night. Do you remember that Prime Minister Ying came to ask the palace servants if they had seen his sister?"
"I remember, there was such a thing, but didn't Mr. Ying's sister return home later?
What does this have to do with the woman who spent the night with the emperor?
Why do you think they are the same person?"
"Are you stupid? Think about it yourself. Apart from the daring palace maids, the only people who could have done something good with the emperor in the palace are the women who attended the palace banquet that night.
As for the other female members of the family, no one was reported missing, except for Lord Ying’s sister!
Do you think it's such a coincidence?
I'm not the only one who knows that Lord Ying is looking for his sister. Many people in the palace know about it.
It’s just that because the Fuquan Bus ordered us not to discuss anything that happened that night, I didn’t dare to tell anyone.”
Another eunuch who was enjoying the melon tutted his words, "You dare to tell me now? What if someone hears?"
"Oh, how is that possible? Besides the Emperor, we are the only two who would come here to clean up. Who..."
The young eunuch was halfway through his words when his eyes met Gu Wang who came out from behind the screen.
The young eunuch was so frightened that his whole body went limp and he fell to his knees with a thud.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
The other young eunuch was also frightened and quickly knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! I know nothing!"
Gu Wang walked up to the two of them and his eyes fell on the little eunuch who had just mentioned Lord Ying’s sister.
"Tell me everything you knew that night! No matter how big or small!
If you conceal anything, I will kill you immediately!"
Gu Wang's voice was cold and stern, and he was intimidating without even being angry.
"yes!"
After a while, Gu Wang left the side hall, returned to the bedroom to change into casual clothes, and then left the palace directly and went to Ying Mansion.
Ying Zhen was still in the palace and had no idea that the emperor had already gone to his house.
It was only after Eunuch Fuquan heard about it that he felt something was wrong and went to inform Ying Zhen.
Upon hearing this, Ying Zhen hurried back.
When Ying's father and Miao Manman heard from the housekeeper that the emperor had actually arrived, their first reaction was to wonder if the emperor had learned of the Ying family's secret and had come to settle the score?!
The two hurried to the mansion gate, and Gu Wang had already come in.
Gu Wang was dressed in black, with a gloomy expression and a sense of oppression, as if he had come to settle a score.
Seeing the emperor like this, Yingfu and Miao Manman confirmed their guess.
"May I ask your Majesty, what is the matter?"
Yingfu and Miao Manman saluted, and Yingfu asked with some trembling.
Gu Wang narrowed his eyes, "Where's your daughter? I'm here, and your daughter won't even come out to greet me?"
Ying's father and Miao Manman both felt a pang of fear in their hearts.
The Emperor asked about Xixi the moment he arrived. Could it be that the Emperor really knew that Xixi had previously pretended to be Ying Zhen?!
Apart from this, it is impossible for Xixi to have done anything to deceive the emperor.
Ying's father's forehead was covered with sweat. He swallowed and explained carefully, "Your Majesty, my daughter left the palace not long ago.
Your Majesty, is there anything you need from my daughter? I can convey it to you."
Miao Manman on the side didn't say anything, but bravely glanced at Gu Wang twice.
The emperor did look very angry, but he seemed just scary, with no obvious murderous intent in his eyes.
And I don’t know if it was her illusion.
She felt that the emperor looked a little anxious and as if he was suppressing his excitement.
It doesn't look like he's here to settle a score with Xixi...
So what exactly does the emperor want?
Miao Manman was also a little uncertain.
"I want to see your daughter in person. Since she's out, I'll just wait here."
After Gu Wang finished speaking, he strode towards the main hall of Ying Mansion with his hands behind his back.
Ying's father and Miao Manman looked at each other, and Miao Manman immediately and quietly ordered the servants to go into the palace to call Ying Zhen back.
However, before the servants left, Ying Zhen hurried back.
Seeing her husband breathe a sigh of relief, Miao Manman hurried forward and repeated what the emperor had just said.
"Husband, what should I do?"
Ying Zhen patted his wife's shoulder soothingly, "Don't worry, I'm here."
As soon as Ying Zhen and Miao Manman entered the main room, they clearly felt the strong sense of oppression and suffocation in the room.
Ying Zhen bowed, "Your Majesty."
Gu Wang raised his eyes and looked at the official uniform that Ying Zhen had not yet changed out of, and pulled the corner of his mouth meaningfully.
"My dear, you rushed back in such a hurry. What's the matter? Could it be that someone in your house did something to offend me?
I look at the three of you, and the word guilty is clearly written on your faces."
The three members of the Ying family felt a tightness in their hearts.
The pillar of the Ying family is now Ying Zhen. When Ying Zhen came back, Ying's father and Miao Manman did not speak again.
