Chapter 189 Who gave it to them?



"Sixth Sister, did you give this up?"

"No, thank you," Qin Zhaoyue said, folding her hands in her pockets, looking rather lazy.

"Was it arranged by my third sister, or my fourth sister? Or perhaps it was Lord Yinzhe?"

I fainted like everyone else; there were quite a few witnesses, so it definitely wasn't me who caused it.

Everyone: ...

I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless.

Who fainted? And who's arguing with them now?

Hidden Zerg's teeth were almost ground to dust.

You scoundrel, you're messing with her, aren't you!

And "Sister Yinzhe"? Pshaw, who's her sister!

Yin Zhe immediately glanced to his side, "It wasn't me who asked for it."

Just kidding, this matter can't be attributed to His Majesty at all, otherwise the whole situation would be different.

Yes, that's His Majesty's intention. Afterwards, no one can guess what really happened, but it absolutely cannot go through her hands on the surface.

The two sisters looked at each other in bewilderment.

Only four people were still conscious at the scene; neither Zhao Yue nor Yin Zhe were among them.

There's only one truth left: they did it themselves.

Are you playing? You're playing here!

With things having come to this, Yin Zhe sent out a telepathic message, and within moments a person wearing a pale mask entered the main hall.

He nodded to the three princes with a nonchalant attitude, but he bowed respectfully to Yin Zhe.

It's not hard to guess that this person also came from the Xuanji Guard.

"Let's begin."

"yes."

The masked man immediately bent down at his desk and took the memorial in front of Qin Zhaowan without asking.

The brush, made of green sandalwood and bamboo joints and laced with wolf hair, is about to be used for writing.

"Wait a minute!" Qin Zhaoyue suddenly called out, "Can we not record Zheng Huiyin's name?"

"Reason?" Yin Zhe said coldly, his temper not exactly mild.

"Zheng Huiyin was part of the scheme that targeted me, and the Xuanji Guard didn't find any clues afterward, did they?"

Who knows, maybe the truth is hidden right under our noses, and the mastermind behind this is the Duke's mansion itself?

That's the only reason I can offer.

Qin Zhaoyue wasn't exactly vindictive, but she was just vindictive.

If they wanted to drag her down with them, they'd have to tie her to that foolish boy from the Pei family. This grudge couldn't be let go so easily.

Bullshit! Even a fool could figure out that Yin Zhe just wanted revenge.

However, what she said might not be impossible; Xuanji Wei had also thought about it.

However, investigating the Duke of Zheng is a sensitive matter. His Majesty did not allow direct intervention before, but instead started the investigation from the outside to avoid alerting him.

This time... it could be a good opportunity to test the waters.

"Let's not record it yet."

"yes."

The masked man began writing his name.

The two princesses finally realized what they wanted to do; clearly, Zhaoyue and Yinzhe were both in the know.

This was probably a contingency plan for failing to do things properly, and the two couldn't help but feel bitter at the thought.

"Lord Yin Zhe..."

"If you have any questions, ask the Sixth Prince. This was her idea."

Yin Zhe betrayed Qin Zhaoyue without hesitation.

Two pairs of eyes swept towards her simultaneously, but Qin Zhaoyue seemed oblivious, showing no intention of offering any explanation.

Instead, they moved closer to the masked man and watched him write a name using a different font.

Each name is different, but they are all written smoothly, clearly indicating that they had practiced beforehand.

Qin Zhaoyue made two requests at the time.

The first one is a sleeping potion that can knock someone out.

Mo Shier could certainly match this, but Qin Zhaoyue didn't want her household to get too involved.

Another one is that a drug that can simultaneously incapacitate more than forty people, and has no side effects, is also quite expensive.

Qin Zhaoyue would never spend her own money on office or family matters.

The second requirement is to have someone who can imitate the handwriting of these talented women.

Having the skill is one thing, but you also need to collect everyone's handwriting and copy it in advance to achieve at least 80-90% similarity.

Only the Xuanji Guard could accomplish this in a single day.

"Not bad, buddy," Qin Zhaoyue pouted, "With your abilities, you could easily be discarded after you've served your purpose."

Masked man: ...

His hand trembled and he almost ruined the entire memorial, but luckily he quickly picked up his pen in a moment of distraction, thus saving it from disaster.

He raised his head and looked at the Sixth Prince with a faint smile in front of him, his eyes filled with complex emotions, but in fact, the veins on his forehead were throbbing beneath the mask.

"Sigh..." Qin Zhaoyue patted his shoulder to comfort him.

"It's alright, brother. From now on, just work diligently under Master Yinzhe."

Avoid writing unless absolutely necessary; you never know, it might just add a few years to your life.

Masked man: ...

Listen to me say thank you, because of you, the four seasons are warm.

This kind of comfort is better left unsaid.

"Alright, go ahead and write yours, ignore her."

The masked man lowered his head, this time concentrating fully and without distraction.

As each name was written out, the two sisters became restless.

"Sixth Sister, tell the truth, is this what Mother Empress wants?"

"It doesn't look like a humid expression."

"That's what you mean?"

"Hey? Third sister, fourth sister, you can't slander me like that."

Seeing their determined look, Qin Zhaoyue waved her hand.

"Sisters, is this task urgent?"

Need I say more? But both sisters understood what he meant.

Before long, all forty names except Zheng Huiyin appeared on the memorial.

"Sixth Sister, even if this memorial is submitted, they can still outwardly comply but inwardly defy it."

For example, deliberately answering questions randomly in the preliminary test to get eliminated.

This was originally a special case, and if the release of the exam papers is not convincing, it will inevitably cause public outcry.
