Chapter 335: The decisive new emperor x the poor princess of the previous dynasty 18

Only then did Jun Molin feel completely relieved.

Late at night, after Jun Molin coaxed Jinjin Qiao to sleep, he did not rest himself. He lay on the bed thinking.

Now that Jin Jin Qiao is pregnant, Jun Molin thinks he should speed up his actions. According to Doctor Yu, she is almost three months pregnant and her belly will become noticeable soon, and then it will be impossible to hide it.

And as for the incident of the poisoned sweet soup, catching a few small millet shrimps won't help much. Cleaning up the harem must be the first priority, and Aunt Qiao cannot be put in such danger again.

This time it was all thanks to Aunt Qiao for taking the Anti-Poison Pill. If the mastermind behind this doesn't poison Aunt Qiao next time but uses other methods to harm her, Jun Molin doesn't even dare to think about it.

The next morning, Jun Molin, who had not slept all night, did not show any fatigue. He put on his dragon robe, carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for Jinjin Qiao, and then got up and walked out.

Liu Cheng was already waiting at the door. When he saw Jun Molin, he first reported the task that Jun Molin had assigned to him. "Your Majesty, I have already started investigating the maidens and eunuchs in each palace according to your instructions. I have caught those with unclear backgrounds and details and interrogated them."

“It should take a few days to see results.”

Jun Molin nodded and said as he walked, "Don't think it's too easy, and don't be careless. Since they dared to poison, they must have made perfect preparations."

"The servant is awake and has already given instructions."

After the morning court session, Jun Molin summoned his four trusted generals.

"Shunfeng, Shunqing, the two of you are responsible for continuing to investigate General Sima's latest movements."

"Yes, yes, Lei. I order you to protect the Queen from now on. If there are any suspicious people, you can kill them first and report later. Remember, I want you to protect the Queen. If anything happens to the Queen, I will not spare your lives."

"Yes, I obey your command."

After arranging everything, Jun Molin pinched his brows tiredly.

Before the harem was cleaned up, a large-scale riot broke out in Changping Town. This riot was particularly serious. What Jun Molin heard was that countless civilians were killed and injured, and eight thousand rioters came from nowhere, protesting against the former princess becoming the Empress Da'an.

Because the situation was serious, the ministers who had originally remained neutral also protested.

Jun Molin's anger receded, and he threw the secret letter away with a sullen face.

"Sima Yi, you deserve to die"

"Come here, order someone to search the General's Mansion. If there is no General Sima in the mansion, immediately seal up the General's Mansion and remove General Sima from his post."

General Sima was far away in Changping Town. He planned this riot with the purpose of forcing Jun Molin. The previous small-scale riots did not cause casualties among the people, but this time was different. General Sima gave the order without hesitation that any people who resisted would not be treated politely.

When Liu Cheng was cleaning the harem, he discovered an unexpected person, Yu Ling. Liu Cheng did not make it public, but ordered people to secretly monitor Yu Ling's every move.

Liu Cheng himself quickly reported to Jun Molin, "Your Majesty, I found out that Miss Yu has become the aunt of the Shangshi Bureau."

"Miss Yu? Yu Ling?" Jun Mo Lin's face was full of doubts, and his tone was a little angry. "Didn't I give her a death sentence? How did she become an aunt of the Imperial Food Bureau?"

"Catch her quickly. She must be responsible for my aunt's poisoning."

Yu Ling didn't know that she had been discovered and was being monitored. Ever since she heard about the harem investigation, Yu Ling had been much more low-key, trying not to show up if possible. She never thought that she would still be discovered.

When she was forced to kneel in front of Jun Molin, Yu Ling was ready to pretend.

"Your servant Yu Yao pays respects to His Majesty."

Jun Molin looked at Yu Ling coldly, and after a while he sneered, "Oh, Yu Yao? Do you think I'm stupid?"

Yu Ling pursed her lips. Even though she was so frightened that her hands and feet were limp, she still had to restrain herself from letting her expression look too obvious.

"Yes, I am Yu Yao. I don't understand why the emperor said that."

Jun Molin looked at Yu Ling sarcastically, with a sneer on his lips. "Yu Ling, stop pretending. I know everything."

Yu Ling let out a deep breath, and looked up at the man she loved so deeply. "Your Majesty, Ling'er doesn't understand. I have been with you for so long, how could you have the heart to take my life?"

"How dare you!" Before Jun Molin could say anything, Liu Cheng scolded him in a stern voice, "How dare you, your servant, look directly into the emperor's face? You are guilty!"

"Hehehehe" Yu Ling seemed unable to control herself and laughed uncontrollably "I can't even look the emperor in the face? Eunuch Liu, you, a servant, dare to scold me"

"Your Majesty, you haven't answered me yet. I have been with you for so many years, how could you bear to do this?"

Jun Molin pinched his brows, raised his hand to stop Liu Cheng from continuing to speak, and said with gloomy eyes, "I have said it before, all I can give you is to let you have enough food and drink. If you don't make any mistakes, I can arrange a place for you to live and support you for the rest of your life."

"But you should never hurt my queen. She is my thorn in the flesh. No one is allowed to hurt her."

Yu Ling stared at Jun Molin fearlessly and shouted, "Even if I wanted to hurt her, I failed, didn't I? Why are you so cruel to poison me to death?"

"If it weren't for General Sima's rescue, I would have died long ago."

"Your Majesty, you have such a cruel heart. I love you so much, how could you bear to kill me?"

Jun Molin didn't want to waste time talking to Yu Ling anymore and just looked at her coldly, which made Yu Ling feel guilty.

"I will ask you one last time, were you involved in the poisoning of the Queen?"

In fact, Yu Ling knew in her heart that she was doomed to die after being pressed in front of Jun Molin this time, but Yu Ling did not intend to expose anyone else, so she straightened herself up and said, "It was I who did it. I hate her and wish she was dead."

Liu Cheng shook his head and said, "Miss Yu, I advise you to tell the truth. Maybe the emperor will spare your life."

Yu Ling shook her head, her eyes were full of determination, "I did it myself, it has nothing to do with others, you can kill me or mutilate me as you like."

Jun Molin's patience had already run out with Yu Ling. He waved his hand at Liu Cheng and said, "Ci Bailing, kill her in front of me. I want to see her die with my own eyes."

Liu Cheng was silent for a moment, knowing that the Emperor hated Yu Ling so much that she would do anything but hurt the Empress.

The two young eunuchs walked towards Yu Ling step by step holding the white silk.

Yu Ling moved back in fear, but was eventually forced to her knees.

Jun Molin just watched Yu Ling struggle, her eyes bulging out and her face swelling to the color of liver, until her body went limp and relaxed.
