"Your Majesty, we haven't yet discovered who was responsible, but something quite shocking happened last night."
Hu Yanji raised his eyes to look at the wizard, motioning him to continue.
The wizard continued, "Last night, the commander's second son, Shen Mingxuan, and General Wuer's daughter, Wuer Zhuoma, got entangled together. They were discovered next to the Khatun Palace."
"Shen Mingxuan was unconscious at the time, and after examination by the imperial physician, he was also found to have been poisoned by the aphrodisiac, while Wuerzhuoma had inhaled the sleeping powder. Not only that, the imperial physician also found residual aphrodisiac dust on Wuerzhuoma's handkerchief."
The wizard recounted everything that happened last night. In the absence of clear evidence, he did not make any firm statements, but only explained the strangeness of the matter.
As for the rest, it all depends on what the Khan thinks. He believes that the Khan has his own decision.
Hu Yanji pursed his lips and was about to speak when a guard hurried in.
"Your Majesty, General Wuer requests an audience!"
The wizard's eyes flickered and he stepped aside.
It's really intriguing that General Wuer requested an audience at this time...
"Xuan."
Hu Yanji uttered a word lightly, and his expression could not tell whether he was happy or angry.
A moment later, General Ur strode in.
Plop!
As soon as he entered the hall, General Wuer lifted up his robe and knelt in front of Huyan Ji.
"I failed to educate my daughter properly and nearly caused a disaster. Please punish me, Khan!"
These three short sentences contained so much information and confirmed the wizard's guess.
Hu Yanji played with the ring on his finger, his eyes fell on General Wuer who was kneeling in the hall: "What is the matter that requires General Wuer to perform such a grand ceremony?"
General Ur gritted his teeth and without hesitation told everything that happened last night.
Not knowing the full story, he even filled in the gaps in what happened based on his guesses.
"I failed to teach my daughter well. Please punish me, Khan!"
General Wuer knocked his head heavily on the ground again, waiting for Huyan Ji to punish him.
General Wuer rushed to the palace early this morning, wanting to take the initiative to apologize to Hu Yanji.
As Huyan Ji's capable deputy general, General Wuer knew Huyan Ji's temperament very well.
If he doesn't take the initiative to apologize today, the Wuer family will face even more severe punishment!
He saw yesterday that the Khan cared about the Khatun. Zhuoma dared to set her sights on the Khatun. She was simply seeking death!
Now he only prayed that the Khan would reduce the punishment for Zhuoma in consideration of his many years of loyalty.
At least... at least Zhuoma can be saved...
"Given General Wuer's outstanding military achievements, his merits and demerits will be offset."
Hu Yanji's voice came from above. General Wuer just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Hu Yanji say, "But this Khan will never tolerate the culprit who murdered Khatun last night!"
"Come here, capture Uerzhuoma and take him to the dungeon to await interrogation!"
General Wuer suddenly looked up and said with grief, "Khan! I know Zhuoma has committed an unforgivable crime, but please, Khan, spare her life for my sake!"
"Stand back."
Huyan Ji pinched his brows and didn't want to say anything more.
"Khan!"
Seeing that General Wuer had offended Huyan Ji, the wizard was afraid that a rift would arise between the king and his subject, so he hurried to General Wuer's side.
He leaned over to his ear and whispered, "General Wuer, the Khan will make his own decision. General, please do not offend the Khan at this time."
"If you push too hard, things will only get worse, right?"
After hearing the wizard's words, General Ur swallowed all the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He looked up at Hu Yanji on the throne and shouted, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave!"
After General Ur retreated, the guards who went to arrest Urzhuoma also followed him out.
However, they searched the entire Wuer Mansion but could not find Urzhuoma. Later, Huyan Ji ordered to intensify the efforts, and even if they had to search the entire Mobei, they must bring Urzhuoma to him.
After all, the truth will come out.
The news that Wuerzhuoma drugged Jiang Jingyu in an attempt to ruin her innocence, but ended up suffering the consequences and being taken advantage of by Shen Mingxuan, quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys.
After learning that Huyan Ji had ordered the arrest of Uerzhuoma, the people also began to pay attention to this matter.
Shen Mingxuan is a scoundrel who has been thinking about Uerzhuoma ever since he met her. Now that he has finally got her, he shows off to everyone he meets.
He even recounted his feelings when they were having sex last night.
Those who were friends with him were all bad friends. After hearing those words from Shen Mingxuan, they spread them widely. In the end, word spread from ten to a hundred, and Ulzhuoma's reputation was completely ruined in the Mobei Imperial Capital.
General and Mrs. Wuerl were so worried about this matter that their hair turned a lot whiter.
But they couldn't blame anyone else. This was all Ulzhuoma's own fault. As parents, they could only endure it.
"Have you found it, miss?"
General Wuer sat at the desk, his face full of vicissitudes of life.
The guard shook his head and said, "General, I have sent people to search all the places where the young lady used to go, but there is no trace of her."
"Keep looking."
"yes!"
The moment the guard left the study, Mrs. Wuerl happened to be walking towards the study.
"How is it? Any news about Zhuoma?"
"Madam, not yet."
Mrs. Wuer stumbled and almost fell to the ground, but the maid who accompanied her quickly supported her.
"Ma'am, ma'am, are you okay?"
