Seeing that the Imperial Guards had retreated, Lin Cenyi continued to insist on taking the Imperial Master away.
Seeing that there was no other way, Ming Liuli went into the house to ask for the Imperial Master's help and used her mouth to indicate that she would save the Imperial Master. Only then did the Imperial Master leave the house.
After everyone left, Ming Liuli felt her eyelids twitching.
Today she has been stabbed in the back by the Ming family, who want to use the child born by that palace maid with Ming family blood as the little emperor.
She was afraid that the child would not be close to her, so she planned to give birth to one herself, and suddenly turned against the palace maid and gave her the identity of an assassin.
My family condoned it, but I didn't expect that they secretly made the palace maid pregnant with my brother, and forced me to acknowledge that bastard as the heir of the dragon in an occasion like today.
She couldn't help but touch her stomach, having taken so many secret medicines.
In three days, we will know whether our period will be delayed or not.
She will definitely have her own children.
As for the Imperial Master, it was he who personally caused the Emperor to become like this. He and I are in the same boat, so he will definitely not betray me.
Besides, with Mu Peiyuan in charge, and having given him so much gold, silver, and jewelry to build relationships and win over court officials, there shouldn't be any major problems.
In the Qinzheng Hall, after Lin Cenyi finished speaking as a witness.
The detectives from the Dali Temple received the order and rushed straight to the dungeon of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
Many human bones and clothes were found inside, as well as an altar filled with the smell of blood.
The witnesses and evidence were irrefutable, but the Imperial Master defended himself by saying that he was completely unaware of the situation.
Even though the servants in his house confessed under torture, he still refused to admit it.
Lin Cenyi sneered, "It doesn't matter whether he pleads guilty or not. The facts are here. Today, this demon must be cut into pieces to give justice to the people."
Mu Peiyuan said, "After all, the Imperial Master was appointed by the late emperor himself. Let's wait until the emperor wakes up before making a decision."
However, only his own disciples and the Ming family supported him, while those he had taken care of during this period of time did not make any move.
It seems that it is impossible to subdue these scoundrels if you take the money but don't do the job and don't deal with a few of them.
Little did he know that all the gold, silver and jewelry he gave to those officials had been replaced with fake ones by Danruo.
If those people didn't harbor resentment towards Mu Peiyuan, or felt that he was testing them, and didn't know Mu Peiyuan's intentions, they would naturally not follow him blindly.
It was already dark at this time, and the ministers had been busy all day, so they wanted to go back and rest.
Early the next morning, Mu Peiyuan said that the emperor had not woken up yet. Mu Peiyuan and Ming Liuli wanted to delay for two more days. When Ming Liuli had a child, they would announce that Murong Yan had become a living dead.
Can't the child born by the Empress of the Central Palace compete with the child born by the palace maid who is identified as an assassin?
All civil and military officials knew how to choose.
On the afternoon of the second day, Lin Cenyi had led the Dali Temple officials of all ranks, as well as more than one hundred parents, brothers, and sisters of the victims to kneel outside the palace, begging the emperor to execute the evil Taoist priest.
The people came here in admiration of Lin Cenyi and spontaneously cut their fingers and pressed their bloody fingerprints on the petition organized by Lin Cenyi.
By the evening, the Imperial Master felt as if he were being bitten by insects.
He asked Ming Liuli not to let the people write petitions anymore, as these bloods carrying strong desires were now gnawing at his blood vessels inch by inch.
Ming Liuli sent people to investigate again. More and more people gathered at the gate of the palace, and students from the capital also gathered.
In this situation, if we directly stop the people from signing the blood petition, we will probably have to send soldiers to suppress it.
At the same time, the capital was in such turmoil that Su felt it was a good opportunity to kill Dan Ruo.
The incident of a demon harming people caused such a sensation, so the death of an adulterous bride in the Prime Minister's mansion was no big deal.
She quickly invited the wives of several of Mu Peiyuan's close subordinates to her house to testify against the adultery, so as to prevent Lin Cenyi, the Minister of the Supreme Court, from making a fuss over his daughter like he did today.
With the official's wife as a witness, there was nothing he could do.
Su personally brought several ladies to Danruo's courtyard to invite Danruo.
In front of outsiders, her mother-in-law came to invite her. For the sake of the Lin family's reputation, Danruo would definitely come to this game.
Dan Ruo held Murong Yan and sat in the flower hall.
Several ladies thought that Su called them here to talk about what was happening outside, and they all expressed that their husbands absolutely supported Mu Peiyuan.
Su waved her hand. Mu Peiyuan didn't allow her to talk about these political affairs with outsiders, for fear that she would cause trouble.
"We women don't talk about politics. Today we just want to invite everyone to have a small gathering."
The maids quickly set the table. Su asked everyone to eat and chat, and then, seeing that Danruo didn't move her chopsticks, she personally used the public chopsticks to pick up some food for Danruo.
The other women sighed.
"The old lady is truly a good mother-in-law, one in a million!"
I envy Danruo for being such a blessed daughter-in-law.
Dan Ruo pretended not to know and ate it. This Su had actually drugged all the dishes on the table.
She was planning to attack indiscriminately to ensure she got the food.
Moreover, the medicine used was a secret palace medicine, colorless and odorless. I'm afraid it was obtained from Ming Liuli.
Murong Yan eavesdropped last time and knew that the old woman had bad intentions, so he kept reminding Dan Ruo under the table. Seeing that she was still using her chopsticks, he overturned her bowl and chopsticks, dirtying her skirt.
Danruo smiled embarrassedly and planned to go back to her yard to change clothes.
Su was secretly happy, so that the maid she had arranged would not have to deliberately spill wine on her again.
So he suggested that everyone have a drink together before leaving. Everyone drank the antidote, but Danruo doubled the dosage.
Danruo returned to her yard with a hazy look on her face, as rosy as a ripe peach, tempting to pick.
The servants were tricked into the main courtyard by Su using the time difference.
Murong Yan showed up in human form and wanted to call Long Ying to come and see, but when he kissed Xiao Tangyuan lightly, he could no longer get away.
He knew that Xiao Tangyuan was confused because of the drug, but he was shamefully addicted to it.
Then he realized belatedly that he had actually succeeded, but because it was his first time, he quickly gave up.
The dragon shadow outside the house had already thrown the man who sneaked into the yard into Su's yard.
By the way, he took all the shameful letters, calligraphy and paintings in Mu Peiyuan's study to the outside of Danruo's house.
Murong Yan found that his body was slowly filling up, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the palace.
