Chapter 18 Palace Change
The central officials seemed to have reached a consensus overnight. At the court meeting for several days, no one mentioned the matter in Fujian without tactfully. The Supervision Bureau, which was originally most likely to impeach, gave up the original intention of holding on to the left because of the silence of the Zuodu Censor Bao Huasheng, which made the emperor feel much more purified.
"I'm not sure about the emperor." Feng Jue finally returned to the palace after taking a long walk in Fujian.
"Well, how are you doing what you told me?" The emperor tapped the handrail gently with his index finger, without any intention of screaming.
"If you go back to the emperor, you should be punished with humility and death, and the matter is only half completed." Feng Jue said repeatedly.
"Then you dare to come back!" The emperor's voice suddenly increased, and the anger that had accumulated for several days was all on this confidant. "I asked you to protect Wuhen, you are fine. He was assassinated before he stayed for a few days. It doesn't matter if those local officials deny a few thieves, but you can't even catch any clues? What do I cook for you? "In awe, the emperor's eyes suddenly appeared.
Feng Jue keenly noticed the emperor's murderous intent. Compared with this, those heart-wrenching words were nothing. It seemed that the emperor no longer believed in him. He thought to himself with a self-deprecating thought that even if he did not show any disobedient heart, the suspicious monarch would not be assured that he was holding an elite confidant in his hand. Since that was the case, throwing out the thing that he originally wanted to be a bargaining chip would probably make the emperor feel sad. Feng Jue's face almost close to the ground was sneered.
"The crime of Beiyi deserves to be killed. The origin of the first batch of assassins was indeed not found out. However, for the second batch of assassins, Beiyi got some clues." Feng Jue kowtowed again and reported loudly.
"The second batch of assassins!" The emperor couldn't help but stand up, "Why haven't I heard of it? What's going on? You can report it to the real thing!"
Feng Jue reported his previous experience in a variety of ways, and then presented the things he had picked up with both hands. The emperor took the seemingly inconspicuous gadget from Shi Liushun, and then caught Feng Jue's forehead that was already purple and purple, and believed his words eighty times. However, when he carefully looked at the things in his hand, his face immediately changed drastically.
"Can anyone else know about this?" The emperor's voice was already trembling slightly.
"If you go back to the emperor, the matter is serious. Huyi dare not be proficient in his duties, but considering the face of the Tian family, he has silenced all the people who have seen this thing at that time!" Feng Jue replied frankly.
"Okay, you go back first." The emperor focused his mind on what he was in his hands, and he had no intention of pursuing Feng Jue's dereliction of duty. "Even if the merits and demerits of this matter are offset, I will not punish you."
"Thank you for your kindness!" Feng Jue quickly kowtowed to thank you for your kindness, but he had cursed in his heart for thousands of times. He stood up carefully and retreated outside the hall, but his eyes swept towards the little eunuchs standing beside him. His cold eyes made all of them shiver.
The emperor seemed to have woken up that there were a little more people here. Although they were all reliable people who sifted and sifted, it was hard to guarantee that there would be one or two people who were too talkative. "Everyone retreated to the inner hall!" The emperor suddenly shouted, "No one can leave without my orders, and those who disobey orders will be killed without mercy!"
All the eunuchs and palace maids rushed towards the inner hall, fearing that they would be late and would suffer. No one knew that the emperor had long buried a deep murderous intent in his heart.
Shi Liushun, who wanted to withdraw with him, was called by the emperor, and then closed the two inner hall doors with trepidation. His uneasiness was even worse than those inferior eunuchs and palace maids. After all, it was not easy to climb to this position. If he was implicated because he heard something he shouldn't have heard today, it would be too unfair. Thinking of himself taking over the hot potato, he became even more worried.
"Shi Liushun, you can write down everyone who went out just now, and send them to Yongning Palace later." The emperor ordered coldly.
"Slave obeys the order." Shi Liushun responded quickly. The drum in his heart became more and more powerful. He knew very well what Yongning Palace was. All the people there were deaf ears and their tongues were cut off in order not to reveal some secret matters. Then what should he deal with?
"Shi Liushun, you have been following me for thirty years, right?" the emperor glanced at the trembling person beside him and asked with a smile.
Shi Liushun could no longer control his fear, so he knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed countless times. "It has been thirty-years since the age of ten. I beg the emperor to be kind. I will never talk nonsense outside."
"Thirty-one years of honor and favor, you are already the first among eunuchs." The emperor seemed to sigh a little, "Shi Liushun, you seem to have been in the position of deputy eunuch of the Six Palaces for ten years. It's time to move your position."
Shi Liushun felt cold in his heart. It seemed that he could not escape this disaster this time. At his position, he could only move his position to the end, and there was no way to rise. After all, the eunuch of the Six Palaces, Wan Fu, was an old man next to the empress dowager at that time. He had never made any mistakes in serving for decades, so the emperor would never have replaced him easily.
"Wanfu is old, and it is not reasonable to have that position. I am going to give him a house in the capital to support him. As for you, I will be ready to take over as the eunuch of the Six Palaces." The emperor looked at Shi Liushun with some amusement, and gave him a stick first and then a sweet date. This is the way to control it.
Shi Liushun was stunned. He never expected such a good thing to do. He had never asked for such a difficult master to serve. He never asked for merit, but he wanted nothing wrong. How could he not be happy with this great prize today? After a while, he woke up and felt that he was rude, he quickly kowtowed a few times, "I thanked the emperor for his grace, but I have never made any contributions. I suddenly promoted my position as a slave. I am afraid that others would gossip and ask the emperor to tell me clearly." He was very smart. I don't know how many people were staring at him at this position and moved up. That was the focus of everyone's eyes. Once they fell down, there would be no sound.
"I know what you are thinking." The emperor just smiled, "Just because you have been with me for so many years, no mistake is a merit. As long as you are careful in your words and actions, they will not dare to do anything to you. As for those slaves who dare not accept you, please use a few targets for me and kill a few bold ones. I see if anyone dares to break the rules between the upper and lower levels!"
"Slave, the slave obeys the order." Shi Liushun was frightened by the emperor's murderous aura and became a little stuttering when speaking.
"Okay, you've dealt with those people just now. I want to be alone and be quiet." The emperor waved his hand tiredly and signaled him to retreat.
In the evening, Concubine Yu received news that the eunuchs and palace maids on duty in Qinzheng Hall today were all demoted to Yongning Palace. This news made her feel a little uneasy. I heard that the emperor sent someone to Fujian back. Could it be that his son did something that made the emperor so angry? Although he had no feelings for Feng Wuhen, after all, in this place in the palace, his mother was noble for his son, and he was named the king first than Wuxi. Others would regard his every move as his instructor. If something really happened, it would be bad.
While he was thinking about it, Rouping rushed in in a hurry and drove all the other servants out without saying a word. Then she closed the door mysteriously, her face full of joy.
"What's so weird? "Concubine Yu was a little puzzled. She couldn't figure out what was worth making such a mess.
"Empress, good news!" Rouping said almost to the master's ear, "This afternoon, I heard that the emperor went to the queen to speak alone, and drove all the servants in Kunning Palace away. Then the two of them muttered inside for nearly two hours. When they came out, the emperor's face turned pale, and the slaves outside also said that the emperor and the queen were quarreling fiercely inside."
"It's not a matter of quarrel for a day or two, and it's also a matter of fun for you!" Concubine Yu had known that the emperor and the queen were just looking kind outside, so she didn't care. "The emperor wouldn't let the queen offend for a little bit of trivial matters. The adults outside were all fuel-efficient. One was a ancestral system and the other was a rule. The emperor had to listen patiently."
"This time is different." Although there was no one in the room, Rouping still looked carefully and then said softly, "The emperor has also detained many servants around the queen, and even the mist-like clothes were protected by the owner after he fell something."
"Is there such a thing?" Concubine Yu believed it. It seemed that the queen had done something shameful. If she could take the opportunity to bring her down, then the position of the queen would be her own, and Wuxi could naturally ascend to the throne. "Rouping, at all costs, must figure out why the emperor and empress quarreled. This is a good opportunity. If it is wasted, I would also be sorry for the gift of heaven."
"Don't worry, I will do my best." Rouping responded with clarity.
Queen He sat in front of the dressing table, her mind still had the emperor's angry look just now. Facing such an emperor, she had always been fearless and showed an extremely fearful expression for the first time. She could not even find the words to defend herself, and could only try to impress him with her old feelings. However, in the eyes of the most noble husband in the world, she could not see a trace of pity and favor, but only disgust and determination. At that moment, she was completely desperate.
"Empress, you have no use for dinner. How many sips of water should you drink!" Wuyi was also in a mess at this time. Once the master lost his power, she, a slave, would not have hope of survival? If the queen had not protected her tightly, she might have been beaten at Shenxing Department at this time. The emperor ignored the relationship between husband and wife for many years, and she felt heartbroken by the master, but what method is there? The emperor is the god, and he must not be disobeyed!
"What else can I drink?" The queen suddenly covered her face and cried, "He is going to depose the queen, how can I have the heart to eat? Wuyi, tell me what should I do?" She suddenly fell on Wuyi and cried bitterly. At this time, she had no hope at all.
