A look of astonishment and disbelief flashed across the little eunuch's face before he slowly collapsed to the ground.
Xu Yuehuai, panting heavily, looked at the little eunuch lying on the ground. She knew she had succeeded.
However, she did not let her guard down. She quickly dragged the eunuch into her palace and then searched him carefully.
Finally, she found a letter in a hidden pocket!
She opened the letter and began to read it by the dim light. The letter was filled with densely packed handwriting, revealing a shocking secret.
A look of surprise and deep thought flashed in Xu Yuehuai's eyes. She knew that this secret would change her destiny!
She knew that the letter in her hand was evidence of Bai Shu's crimes, and she could finally fight for justice!
As night deepened, the torrential rain continued to pour down. Shen Yiyi sat in the palace, holding the letter in her hand, her heart filled with complex emotions.
She knew she had a long road ahead, and this battle was just a small part of it. However, she was not afraid or deterred. On the contrary, her eyes shone with a bright and resolute light, filled with the courage and confidence to face the dangers ahead.
Xu Yuehuai decided to secretly search for the whereabouts of that mysterious person!
The next day, she secretly left the palace and embarked on a journey to find the mysterious man.
She searched every corner of the capital and asked countless people, but found no clues. However, she did not give up; she firmly believed that as long as she persisted, she would surely find the mysterious person.
Finally, one day, she discovered the mysterious man's trail in a secluded corner!
"Who exactly are you?"
Xu Yuehuai immediately stepped forward to ask, but the mysterious man remained silent, only staring coldly at her.
She was not afraid. She looked firmly at the mysterious man and said, word by word, "I know you are Bai Shu's accomplice, and I know about your conspiracy. But as long as you tell me the truth, I can guarantee your safety."
The mysterious man's eyes flickered, but he remained silent.
Xu Yuehuai was not discouraged. She continued, "I know you have family and relatives. You don't want them to suffer because of your crimes, right? As long as you tell me the truth, I can help you protect them."
The mysterious man's gaze softened; he seemed moved by Xu Yuehuai's words. Finally, he spoke, revealing to Xu Yuehuai all of Bai Shu's crimes, as well as his true identity and purpose.
"Actually, I didn't want to either. It was all those people who forced me... I... I'm not from Dongsang Kingdom. I come from a very remote place, a place that isn't under the control of the four kingdoms..."
Xu Yuehua listened attentively, taking notes of all the information. She knew this evidence would be enough to convince everyone.
"Okay, I will protect your safety from now on, and I will send you back to where you were originally."
"Thank you, heroine!" As the man bowed his head, a strange smile suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Xu Yuehuai didn't take this person seriously; she arranged for someone from Qi Guze's side to come and take over the person.
The next morning at court, Xu Yuehuai presented the evidence to the king. Without fear, she recounted Bai Shu's crimes and displayed the evidence to everyone.
"These are the crimes I've uncovered about Bai Shu recently. He's been plotting to overthrow the dynasty for a long time!"
"I haven't found anyone who is in cahoots with him, but Your Majesty must still be wary!"
"Although you are related by blood, you still need to be more cautious now!"
"Although he is dead, who knows how many insidious and cunning plans were hidden behind him..."
Her voice was firm and powerful, as if supported by an invisible force. Through her words, Bai Shu's crimes were thoroughly exposed.
Although Bai Shu had been killed by her, this evidence shocked other disloyal officials in the court. They were filled with fear and unease, and dared not betray Bai Yu again.
Bathed in the morning sun, the palace's golden splendor shone even brighter. Xu Yuehuai's eyes gleamed with a triumphant light, as brilliant as stars. Her gaze was calm and resolute, as if she had already foreseen the vicissitudes of the future.
She knew that her efforts had not been in vain. All those countless days and nights of hard work, all those moments of misunderstanding and doubt, had turned into this moment of satisfaction and pride.
After recounting everything, she looked up at Wang Baiyu on the throne, and saw a satisfied smile on his face. That smile was like a gentle spring breeze, warm and comforting. A warm feeling welled up in Xu Yuehuai's heart—the joy of being recognized and affirmed.
"Minister Shen, you have done very well this time. I hereby bestow upon you the title of Marquis!" The king's voice was loud and powerful, full of praise and affirmation.
Xu Yuehua smiled slightly, a smile that contained both humility and pride: "Thank you, Your Majesty." She knew that this honor was not only an affirmation of her personal life, but also a recognition of her adherence to justice and truth.
She stood in the imperial court, her figure appearing even taller in the morning sun. Her eyes were calm and profound, and her voice echoed throughout the court, every word filled with joy and happiness.
At this moment, she knew her mission for this period of time was complete, but she would never stop. Because she knew that within this palace, there was still much darkness for her to uncover, and much justice for her to uphold!
Xu Yuehuai's story will become a legend in the palace, and she will become a hero in people's hearts! People will be filled with respect for her!
She proved with her actions that no matter how much darkness and hardship you encounter, as long as you have a firm belief and keep moving forward, you will definitely succeed!
"I can't believe Shen Yiyi actually succeeded! It's such a surprise!"
"This female official of hers really loves to stir up trouble..."
"Yes! Yes! These days, I feel like she's made the palace a complete mess!"
"I didn't expect the king to fall for her charms. Do you think he has feelings for her?"
"How would we know that? We're not mind readers, how could we possibly know?"
"I just hope she doesn't target us. If she does, we're finished."
“You have to rely on evidence to do anything. If she can’t find our evidence, there’s nothing she can do to us.”
After the morning court session, the palace corridors were bustling with activity as officials discussed the matter.
Xu Yuehuai's father, Minister of Rites Shen, rushed over, his eyes revealing concern and expectation.
He pulled Xu Yuehuai to a corner, his voice low and serious: "Have you had any recent achievements?"
