Chapter 17 Secret Investigation
The fourth prince Yuanzhi is a good prince.
In his previous life, he helped the yamen runners and migrant workers to carry sandbags, even at the risk of his own life, to fight against the flood.
This stopped the flood and saved the plain in the lower reaches of the Yuan River.
Emperor Yuan even commended him for this, but unfortunately, he was framed in the end and a forged imperial edict was found in his mansion. The emperor was very resentful about it and was thrown into prison. Later, Concubine Rong took action and the emperor died one day.
The fourth prince completely lost his chance.
The empress was also depressed because of this, so she hanged herself at the request of Rongpin, who had become the empress dowager at that time.
It can be said that once a dragon is in the sky, all mortals will be reduced to mud under their feet.
The second branch of the Shen family was declining, while the first branch of the Shen family, where Shen Jue was from, became the new nobles in the court.
snort!
Now that she is reborn, she wants to see if she can still make things easy for you!
Yun Ju'an frowned, but his fourth brother had bet on the right horse. He followed the young Seventh Prince and actually made it to the end!
The seventh prince, Yuan Yin, had a mother who was nothing more than a beautiful palace maid, about the same age as Lu Zhe. She climbed to the supreme throne through ruthless means.
But until now she has never seen the legendary seventh prince.
At this moment, the Seventh Prince might still be being bullied somewhere!
Yun Ju'an pinched the token in his hand and curled up a smile.
In the middle of the night, Qin Agang appeared under the moon and entered the Youfenglaiyi.
"Miss." Qin Agang bent down and handed a letter to Yun Zhuan.
Yun Juan turned off the lights and read in the moonlight:
"Are you sure?"
Qin Agang nodded: "This old servant has confirmed that the weapons and grain were indeed tampered with. Fortunately, we found out early. The young lady asked us to collect a lot of them in the suburbs of Beijing. We also have a lot of grain stored in our own grain fields. We can use this for emergency!"
“Don’t show it for now.” Yun Zhuan thought for a moment.
These days, she has already gained enough favor in front of His Majesty, His Majesty, the Princess and the Prince.
I created a kind, cute and simple character. Isn't it coming in handy now?
Yun Zhuan's face darkened, and a light flashed in his eyes: "Sorry for the trouble. Please be safe."
"Thank you for your concern, Miss." Qin Agang understood what Yun Zhuan meant, and disappeared in the moonlight in an instant, and disappeared for a long time.
Yun Juan looked in front of the bronze mirror and removed all the makeup that concealed her complexion.
He rubbed his eyes again, his eyes looking red as if he had been crying.
His clothes were tattered and his coat was not neatly tied.
Looking at himself in the prism mirror, Yun Yu'an smiled with satisfaction.
The moon was very quiet, and the whole garden was still filled with a chilly wind.
Yun Zhuan did not sleep all night. After seeing that the face was what he wanted, he sat at the gate of Guanju Palace.
She huddled up and cried.
The palace maid and eunuch who were serving as sweepers saw this but did not dare to say anything.
Just looking at the pitiful and helpless little girl, I felt a little more sympathy.
Yun Zhuan had been sobbing quietly, but his longing for Aung and his guilt towards Wu'an Marquis Mansion reached its peak that night.
She hated herself for not being able to do anything directly for her grandfather!
Cui Xu was another of the Empress's maids-in-waiting. She got up early to serve the Empress and took over Shuang Ci's night duty. When she saw Yun Zhuan sitting alone at the door of the palace with red eyes, she felt confused and hurried in to ask for the Empress's order.
What a good girl! She didn't get frozen outside.
Normally, Yun Zhuan always called Aunt Cuixu sweetly. Whenever she got something, the Empress would get a share as well as hers. In name, she was saying that she had worked hard serving the Empress, but in reality, she just wanted her to have a taste of it too.
She likes such a thoughtful little girl from the bottom of her heart.
The Queen was shocked when she heard Cui Xu's words.
Cui Xu knelt before the Empress Yuan and said, "It is wrong for me to disturb your Majesty's sleep. Please punish me."
"Why are you still talking about this now? Go get the imperial physician!" Empress Yuan was rarely seen angrily scolding, and immediately stood up, "That girl has been waiting outside for who knows how long, quickly get someone to prepare some hot tea!"
Yun Yu'an had been very well behaved these days and didn't cause her any worries. She just ate less and went to bed early at night. She had no idea that the little girl could actually sit alone until dawn.
Putting aside other things, Yun Zhuan is the daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an and the blood of an important official of the court. This should not happen!
"Yes, I'll go right away." Cui Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the queen did not blame her.
Normally, the queen was very law-abiding, and she had never thought that she would be willing to make an exception for a little girl.
When Yun Zhuan walked in, he looked quite pitiful.
Poor man, he had to pay his respects to the Empress.
He looked at Empress Yuan in confusion and grievance.
The Queen could not help but sigh. It was already such a certain time, but the etiquette was still the same.
"I lost my manners in front of Her Majesty..." Yun Zhuan choked slightly, tears rolling down his cheeks again.
It makes people feel no pity.
"Come over here," the Empress beckoned. "Are you homesick?"
Yun Zhuan finally couldn't hold back her tears and threw herself at Empress Yuan: "Your Majesty—Your Majesty—"
"I dreamed that my uncle and grandpa didn't come back—"
Empress Yuan couldn't help but feel sad. Swords and knives were merciless on the battlefield, and it was common for soldiers to die in battle.
But this is all for the purpose of guarding the vast land behind and protecting the people of the Yuan Kingdom.
She suddenly didn't know how to comfort the little girl. It was obvious that the little girl, like Lan Deng, had been looking forward to the spring feast these days. She was slightly relieved, thinking that her homesickness would slowly ease.
"My queen, Grandfather told me that he is not feeling well. He ate spoiled rice!" Yun Ju'an cried breathlessly, his face flushed. "I also dreamed that someone told me that the weapons were not sharpened. Why would they go up to die for such a country like Yuan——"
The Empress was shocked.
【This is no small matter! 】
Yun Zhuan was clear in his mind, this matter was definitely not a small one.
"Your Majesty, could you ask His Majesty to order me to see the stored weapons and supplies?" The Empress Yuan was unable to resist the pleading in Yun Ju'an's eyes.
As a general, Yun Rui was supposed to lead a team to set out first, but he had to set up camp first. The soldiers following behind were also responsible for transporting food and weapons in order to improve efficiency.
The Empress was reluctant to speak.
Yun Zhuan knew in her heart that she had gained the upper hand in the psychological game at this moment.
Because at this time, Empress Yuan had already begun to hesitate in her heart whether to inform Emperor Yuan.
Once she had this idea in mind, she had already won half the battle.
Yun Zhuan knelt on the ground and kowtowed, adding fuel to the fire:
"My queen, please, I know this won't happen, I just want peace of mind, please, please..."
I love you, love you, love you, I offer you my sincere heart, and hope that you will collect it as much as possible. Please don’t stick together during the epidemic.
Let me continue reading, or I'll drag you out and beat you up
