The warm sunlight sprinkled on the polished stone ground, butterflies danced among the flowers, but there were people kneeling on the ground in the backyard of Prince Zunyi's Mansion.
On the steps was Jun Chen, wearing a sky-blue robe. He had a cold face and his indifferent gaze fell on the women kneeling in the front.
"Please Your Majesty, please look into this matter! This matter has nothing to do with me!"
"Ever since I entered the mansion, I have devoted myself to serving the prince and have never had the slightest intention of harming anyone!"
"Your Majesty, my cousin has been out of the house all day, who knows..."
Bang--
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking porcelain in the room, and then the door was opened. Liang Yubing's eyes were red and she looked pitiful. She was wearing a veil on the lower half of her face, which added a touch of mystery.
Liang Yubing glared at the people below fiercely and walked to Jun Chen.
"Cousin, I've been staying at home these past few days and haven't been anywhere!"
"I can't possibly poison myself! Cousin, you have to make the decision for me!"
At noon, Liang Yubing felt uncomfortable on her face and quickly washed it repeatedly with clean water, but the rouge had been on her face for so long that her skin was still poisoned.
Now it's all red and has bumps on it.
Only then did Liang Yubing realize that she had also been infected. She probably got it accidentally in the rouge shop.
Maybe Mo Qin had already been tricked, but was just hiding in the mansion and didn't dare to come out?
Liang Yubing applied the antidote to herself.
Calming down, a brilliant plan flashed through her mind.
Why not take this opportunity to let Jun Chen clean up his backyard?
Although those concubines posed no threat to her, they were still disgusting.
So we have the current scene.
This was something she came up with on the spur of the moment, without any arrangements, so of course it was impossible to find out who the murderer was.
But there is an advantage to not being able to find the murderer. As long as Jun Chen pays enough attention to her, all the concubines in the backyard can be dealt with at once.
Jun Chen raised his hand and touched Liang Yubing's head, his slightly cool fingertips brushing her cheek, and there was a chill hidden deep in his gentle tone.
"Don't be afraid, I will find the murderer and bring justice to you."
Jun Chen naturally knew Liang Yubing's whereabouts very well.
Back then, he asked the old man to treat his legs, but the old man said that he couldn't cure it. But a few days ago, the old man said that Liang Yubing's method could be tried.
So the truth of today's matter is not important.
Liang Yubing's eyebrows curved when she heard this, "I knew my cousin was the best to me!"
The concubine who had been begging for mercy just now turned pale.
At this time, a man came in from outside the yard. There were dark stains on his brown robe and blood was splattered on his hands.
Jun Chen raised his eyes and looked over.
"How's it going? Did you confess?"
"Your Highness, the girl insisted that she knew nothing and fainted after being unable to bear the torture."
Originally, the trial was to be held in front of everyone, but Liang Yubing said he didn't want to see a bloody scene, so he had him taken away and dragged so far away that not even a sound could be heard.
Liang Yubing frowned slightly and secretly apologized to the maid who applied rouge to her in the morning.
"Cousin, why don't I go and take a look."
The concubines kneeling in front watched Liang Yubing walk out of the yard, and then Jun Chen's personal servant pushed Jun Chen into the house.
After a while, Liang Yubing came back and said that the maid had confessed.
The murderer is the most favored concubine in the backyard recently.
Jun Chen was silent for two seconds, then waved his hand and had the 'murderer' dragged out.
Before the other concubines could breathe a sigh of relief, they heard Liang Yubing say with a gloomy look:
"The backyard is too dangerous. This time they wanted to destroy my face, next time they might want to take my life."
The concubines kneeling outside began to tremble, with fear on their faces.
Jun Chen suddenly smiled. He stretched out his hand towards Liang Yubing, and Liang Yubing quickly put her hand on his. The love between the man and the woman was so discordant.
"Indeed, I'm tired of hearing you nagging me all day long."
"Send them all out of the house."
Their hearts fell with a thud, and the concubines looked as pale as death, and kowtowed quickly.
"Your Majesty, please have mercy on me! Please don't kick me out of the house!"
"Your Majesty! Cousin, please have mercy on me and don't drive me away!"
The shrill cries gradually faded away, and in the end, only the servants were left kneeling on the ground.
Liang Yubing looked outside the door and suddenly felt a little sorry.
"Your Majesty, what will happen to them after they are driven out of the house?"
Jun Chen looked at Liang Yubing, somewhat disdainful of her hypocritical concern.
"Except for those who want to harm you, everyone else will receive a sum of money."
But what good fate would those who were driven out of the palace have?
The only options were to end up in a brothel or leave the capital, but no one knew how many dangers a weak woman would encounter if she left the capital alone.
"That's good."
Liang Yubing felt relieved. She didn't want to leave a vicious impression of her in Jun Chen's mind.
Although they left the palace, they still had money to earn.
The matter was resolved and the servants in the yard were dismissed.
The maids and servants walked out in a crowd. Jun Chen's personal attendant came in from outside, walked to Jun Chen and whispered a few words in his ear. Jun Chen frowned, his face solemn, and left Liang Yubing and went to the study.
"Your Majesty!"
There was a man waiting in the study. When he saw Jun Chen, he immediately bowed and started talking about business.
It turned out that Jun Ye had gone crazy for some unknown reason and put five officials in jail in a row, which also happened to lead to a corruption case involving one of his confidants.
"Good job, Jun Ye!"
What madness happens to be fake.
Everything was planned long ago.
