Qing'e Palace.
In Cheng'en Hall, Huan Yue went to sleep, but Xie Zhou did not return.
Recruiting Confucian scholars is no small matter; with the autumn imperial examinations this year, there's a risk of another disaster.
Huan Yue doesn't worry about the court, so the problems of Confucian scholars can be resolved sooner, and there will be fewer corrupt scholars in the future.
The Xue family weren't just corrupt scholars; they were pure hooligans with culture, or educated hooligans who became hooligans.
Huan Yue was sleeping soundly, but suddenly something felt off; there was a fragrant smell.
She doesn't know how to blend perfumes, and she's not exactly sensitive, but having spent several years battling life and death in hospitals, she probably has that skill.
Huan Yue pretended to be asleep, which was almost the same as faking illness; she was very good at it.
"Meow!" The low meow sounded like a ghost.
Huan Yue listened, but the little palace maid on the small bed didn't move. Even if she was alert, she probably wouldn't have imagined that someone could use incense in Chengen Hall.
"Meow!" came another sound, tinged with a low chuckle.
A hand brazenly lifted the curtain.
The room was dimly lit, but the empress's radiant face was still clearly visible.
After watching for a while, he fell into a deep sleep. Haha, that's funny.
Another hand rubbed against her face.
Huan Yue suddenly flipped over, grabbed the thief's hand, and crushed it.
Aow! The thief screams!
Huan Yue got up, crushed one of the thief's arms, grabbed the other arm, and dragged him outside.
She can carry an adult man as easily as she would a duck.
The palace maids and eunuchs outside were immediately alarmed!
Huan Yue dragged the thief to the middle room.
The eunuch quickly turned on the lamp.
Huan Yue ordered, "Guard the Qing'e Palace! No one is allowed to move it without permission! Seal off the East Palace as well!"
Yes! Eunuch, go immediately!
Someone actually dared to touch the Empress's private quarters; this is no ordinary matter!
It wasn't too late, and the Qing'e Palace quickly sprang into action, with everyone being ordered not to move around.
Inside the hall, the thief calmed down a little.
He recovered too early. Huan Yue crushed both his arms and broke both his legs inch by inch. Even a doctor probably couldn't cure him.
Aww! The thief's screams were absolutely horrible!
The eunuchs were horrified; the Empress had clearly enraged them!
The Empress is not a violent person at all. She doesn't usually resort to petty tricks to punish people. Generally, she punishes people according to their offenses, and a beating is always deserved. This is much worse than a beating!
Huan Yue casually threw the thief to the ground.
Chao Yun was extremely serious. It was abnormal that Xiao Jiaonu hadn't woken up yet!
Xiangnu quickly came over and found Mi Xiang in the incense burner inside.
Xiangnu sniffed it and said directly to the Empress, "Although I have never seen it before, this smells like the fragrance of Prince Jing."
The lady-in-waiting reported to the Empress: "Madam Wu came this afternoon, and she's acting strangely right now."
Huan Yue nodded: "Bring it over."
The thief was in so much pain that he was numb. He opened his eyes and looked at the legendary Phoenix Fate and Lady Huan.
Huan Yue glanced at him and ordered, "I want to turn him into a human pig!"
Chaoyun nodded, seeing that the thief had finally fainted from fright.
However, daring to intrude upon the Empress's private quarters deserves to be tormented. This dashing young man in white robes? A flower thief, a scoundrel, dares to enter the Eastern Palace? Whoever is behind him, he must die!
The eunuch thought he looked alright, but he couldn't recognize him. In any case, whether he recognized him or not, his fate was already sealed.
The palace maids dragged Lady Wu over.
Lady Ji chased after her and beat her: "What has the Empress done to you that you have to be so vicious?"
Chaoyun dismissed Ji Shi.
Everyone is familiar with the Wu family.
The dowry maid from the Pei family usually kept a low profile, and the Empress didn't use her much. But her life in the palace was definitely comfortable.
Cuizhu said to the Empress, "She has a large family in the Pei family. Perhaps Your Majesty didn't give her the opportunity, and someone else did? If the thief succeeds, who will trace it back to her? Perhaps someone will even help her get out?"
The palace maid sneered, "She's still alive after something this serious? She'll definitely be silenced. She's really willing to risk everything!"
Madam Wu panicked, but still wanted to save face: "This servant didn't do anything."
Huan Yue ordered: "Arrest her entire clan!"
The eunuch shouted from outside!
The Emperor and His Highness have arrived together!
Huan Yue hurriedly came out to greet the emperor.
I glance at her now, and she seems fine, just angry, which I can understand.
Xie Zhou pulled his wife aside and kissed her. "Don't worry, I'm going to get my revenge!"
Seeing the Chengen Hall brightly lit as if it were daytime, and then seeing the thief lying on the ground as if he were dead, the emperor issued an order: "Go to the front."
Huan Yue thanked the emperor. The sleeping quarters were not very convenient.
The present person comforted him, saying, "Don't be angry, or you'll ruin your health."
Huan Yue didn't even care about her chest tightness. Now that the emperor's men had taken over the investigation, she just had to wait for the results.
Xie Zhou pulled his wife to sit down in the Qing'e Palace.
The lights in the hall were quickly turned on, and the sage took the throne.
The eunuch quickly identified the thief and reported to the emperor: "Xie Yi was already familiar with him and had this plan in mind. Ming Hou is a son of a concubine in the Ming family. Although he does not do proper work, he is highly skilled in martial arts. He is said to have stolen countless treasures and only wants to die quickly."
The sage snorted coldly, "Want to die? If Qing'e wants him to be a human pig, he'll have to wait and see!"
Xie Yi was the deposed heir of King Xiang, so King Xiang was involved in this matter.
Minghou and Princess Jing are relatives, so the incense might be for Prince Jing, and therefore Prince Jing must have had some.
The eunuch came to report: "It has been found that Xie Xuan arranged for someone to provide the convenience."
Even if Minghou is highly skilled in martial arts, this palace is not a place that can be entered casually.
Xie Xuan is a disaster; he needs several people. So Xie Xuan is finished.
There's no rush now, investigate! Investigate thoroughly!
If they dare to use such vicious methods against the Crown Princess, they might as well assassinate the emperor tomorrow!
There's still some concern about the green moth. Its strength is one thing, but its fragrance is another. Let the imperial physician take a look.
Xie Zhou thought to himself, there was still a group of people who wanted to use the Crown Princess as a breakthrough point.
As long as the Crown Princess is ruined, countless accusations can be leveled against her, which is why Madam Qian chose to die today.
Although Qian was not a loving mother, she firmly held onto the position of a mother.
Those who are reading and are currently idle are likely to be bombarded with criticism.
Although it is common knowledge, black can be called white, and white can be called black.
Back then, I questioned life and wondered if I was really that bad.
After the eunuch finished examining Lady Wu, he returned and reported, "Lady Wu is the granddaughter of Lady Li's wet nurse."
Another eunuch rushed in to report: "Lady Li was pushed and killed by Pei Bo."
He paused for a moment, then looked at the blue moth.
Huan Yue: "He's dead."
There's probably something fishy going on with this Wu family member lurking around.
Now it's clear that giving the Qian family some face is to silence many people, but not the Li family. Pei Bo has come out once; let him go back in. He'll be executed in the autumn.
The emperor then issued another decree: "Expel everyone else and seal off the house." Looking at Qing'e, he asked, "The house is yours to receive?"
Huan Yue expressed his gratitude.
As for where to hold Li's funeral, Qian's funeral will certainly find a place.
There is a large house in front and many small courtyards in the back.
It would be remarkable if Qian were given the title of Lady of the County; how much more dignified and grand funeral would she want?
Chang Ziyu simply rolled up her straw mat and that was it.
Huan Yue looked at His Highness, asking if they should settle the matter.
Xie Zhou had no other ideas; all he wanted to do now was deal with those who dared to touch his wife.
