Chapter 100: I can beat you to death with a stick.



Yun Chuwei had no idea what Xie Xuan was thinking. She raised her hand and waved it in front of Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan suddenly reached out and grabbed Yun Chuwei's waving hand.

He took her hand in his and pulled her outside.

"Xie Xuan, why are you walking so fast? I can't keep up!" Yun Chuwei called out as she followed behind Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan suddenly turned around, picked Yun Chuwei up in his arms, and walked out of Dali Temple.

Yun Chuwei: ...

Xie Xuan didn't put Yun Chuwei down until they were in the carriage.

Yun Chuwei rolled her eyes at Xie Xuan: "Is there a dog chasing you? Why are you running so fast?"

Xie Xuan reached out, grabbed her wrist, and whispered, "Did I hurt you? I'm sorry!"

Yun Chuwei didn't actually feel any pain; she was just saying it casually.

Hearing Xie Xuan apologize so earnestly, he laughed and said, "No, I was just joking with you!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xuan suddenly pulled Yun Chuwei into his arms and hugged her tightly.

Yun Chu was slightly taken aback, then asked, "Xie Xuan, what are you doing?"

"Weiwei, don't move, let me hold you for a while..."

He not only wanted to hold her in his arms, but also wanted to tell her that he treated her like he did in spring.

But he didn't dare say it aloud, afraid of offending her ears.

Yun Chuwei: ...

"Xie Xuan, have you encountered some difficulties?" Yun Chuwei asked.

She wondered if there were any difficulties with his and Zhu Anshi's plans.

"No!" Xie Xuan said in a low voice.

Yun Chu raised an eyebrow and then asked, "So, what's bothering you?"

"No!"

"What special day is it today? What sad thing has come to mind?"

"No!"

"If you're going to lose everything, why are you hugging me?" Yun Chuwei asked, puzzled.

Xie Xuan: ...

He paused for a moment, then solemnly uttered three words: "I don't know!"

Yun Chuwei: ...

-

Emperor Tianqi interrogated Zhu Anshi three days later.

That same day, Yun Chuwei was also summoned to the palace.

Yun Chuwei saw Huo Qingjue waiting for her at the palace gate, and then she bumped into Yue He.

When Yue He saw Yun Chuwei, he stared intently at her with a very complicated expression.

Recently, many officials in the imperial court have been talking about Yun Chuwei.

Because Yun Chuwei determined by observing the stars that the Jiangcheng area would experience months of torrential rain.

Upon learning of this, His Majesty immediately sent a message to Jiangcheng.

The governor of Jiangcheng quickly organized the summer grain harvest and reinforced the dikes.

It did rain then, and it hasn't stopped since.

It was precisely because of Yun Chuwei's astronomical observations that the summer harvest in the Jiangcheng area was saved, and the risk of the dikes being breached was reduced.

Upon hearing this news, the others praised Yun Chuwei for her foresight.

Only he felt a chill run down his spine.

Because Yun Chuwei had previously made a prediction to her son, saying that the Yue family would be ruined because of Yue Jingsheng…

If he could, he would rather he had never provoked Yun Chuwei.

But now, he can only believe that Yun Chuwei is talking nonsense.

He took a deep breath; he would not allow any disaster to befall his wife's family!

After approaching Yun Chuwei, he said, "Yun Chuwei, our Yue family will never suffer any calamity, and we will certainly not suffer any calamity because of my son."

Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei gave a mocking smile and slowly said, "If Lord Yue is so resolute, why bother saying such things to me?"

Yue He gritted his teeth and said, "I have already captured the assassin wearing the Yama mask for His Majesty, eliminating His Majesty's greatest threat. His Majesty will definitely spare my son. He won't..."

Yun Chuwei suddenly spoke up, interrupting Yue He, and said coolly, "Good fortune may be a harbinger of misfortune, and misfortune may be a harbinger of good fortune. Is catching someone necessarily a good thing?"

Yun Chuwei felt that Zhu Anshi's appearance and arrest were both strange.

I don't know what their scheme is.

Upon hearing this, Yue He's face paled. He immediately turned and left.

He had originally hoped to hear a kind word from Yun Chuwei.

But all Yun Chuwei said were unpleasant things. It really infuriated him.

Huo Qingjue said to Yun Chuwei, "Yue He seems to be quite angry!"

Yun Chu smiled slightly, said nothing, and simply walked through the palace gate, slowly heading towards the main hall.

Huo Qingjue followed Yun Chuwei and whispered, "We've made progress on the person we've been investigating who poisoned the Second Young Master with witchcraft!"

Yun Chu raised an eyebrow: "Where is he?"

“I was originally at my in-laws’ house!” Huo Qingjue said.

Yun Chu raised an eyebrow: "Originally?"

Huo Qingjue nodded: "Originally, I was at my in-laws' house, but now I'm at the Dali Temple!"

Yun Chuwei was very surprised!

"His Highness Prince Xuan arrested him?"

Huo Qingjue shook his head: "No, he went to the Dali Temple on his own initiative!"

Yun Chuwei: ...

She didn't know what to say for a moment.

This person worked for the Crown Prince and poisoned Yun Zheng with witchcraft; he must have been deeply trusted by the Crown Prince.

Why did you go to Dali Temple on your own initiative?

"What conspiracy do you think His Highness Prince Xuan and his group are plotting?" Huo Qingjue asked.

Yun Chuwei shook her head slightly: "I don't know either, but it will be revealed soon!"

After the court hearing, everything will be clear!

Huo Qingjue nodded slightly in agreement.

-

The trial was held in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

There were quite a few people there.

There were the Ministry of Justice, the Court of Judicial Review, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Imperial Guard...

After almost everyone had arrived, the Empress and the Crown Prince also arrived.

Yun Chuwei followed the crowd and bowed to the Empress and the Crown Prince.

After hearing Ping's name, he stood up again with the others.

She didn't look up, but she could feel a cold gaze directed at her.

She slightly raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the Empress, and sure enough, she met the Empress's cold gaze.

Yun Chuwei raised her eyebrows slightly.

Recently, whether it's Yue He or Xie Sheng, everything they've done to her must have been at the Empress's behest.

Could it be that the Empress is angry because she lost both her wife and her army?

She smiled, the corners of her mouth curving upwards.

The Empress saw Yun Chuwei's smile, and her expression turned even more unpleasant.

She suddenly spoke up: "If I remember correctly, Miss Yun was appointed Lingtai Lang by His Majesty, right? Today's court trial has nothing to do with Lingtai Lang, does it? Isn't it a bit too frivolous for Miss Yun to come and watch the spectacle?"

Yun Chuwei curtsied slightly to the Empress before saying, "His Majesty summoned me. If Your Majesty has any doubts about His Majesty's decision, why not ask him directly?"

Empress Wang narrowed her eyes and slowly said, "Miss Yun, are you trying to use His Majesty to pressure me?"

Yun Chuwei revealed a mocking smile: "Your Majesty, I merely wish to remind you that the protagonist of today's court trial is not Your Majesty. Your Majesty should not turn yourself into a clown on that stage!"

Everyone gasped upon hearing this.

Yun Chuwei, you really dare to speak your mind!

Empress Wang's eyes flashed with coldness: "Yun Chuwei, based on those words alone, I could have you beaten to death!"
