I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 1189 The Silly Yan Ruyu

Whether Ruyu was blocking the door is unknown.

But she was indeed at the entrance of Chengtianmen.

Beneath the city wall, in the stables specially set up for the carriages of officials, servants from various mansions were gathered.

None of them dared to look directly at Yan Ruyu, and instead secretly watched her.

Yan Ruyu was squatting on the ground next to the entrance of Chengtian Gate. Perhaps out of boredom, she took a tree branch and played Go by herself.

The Imperial Guard squad on duty today looked at this Commander of the Crimson Cloud Army, a favorite of His Majesty and the Empress, and exchanged glances, seemingly at a loss for words.

The squad leader walked up to Yan Ruyu again: "Deputy Commander, shall I get you a stool?"

Anyone else would naturally not want to stay here, but the person here is Yan Ruyu, so what are they supposed to do? Who would dare to say they should kick her out? Even if the Grand Commander were here, he wouldn't say that.

So this is the only way we can serve them.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ruyu shook her head and looked at the Imperial Guard squad leader: "No need, you all go about your business, don't worry about me, I'll just wait for someone here."

The captain wanted to say something more, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided against it.

So he clasped his hands in a fist salute and returned to his post.

After Yan Ruyu stood up to return the greeting, she squatted down again and continued scratching on the ground.

She wasn't telling the truth.

It's mainly because squatting is comfortable.

I don't know if it was because of that glass of wine last night, but I felt dizzy when I woke up this morning.

However, when she heard from the Crimson Cloud Army that the Censorate had learned about her beating of Cui Yu, and that the Censorate was planning to impeach her that day.

Yan Ruyu originally planned to be more conscientious and go to the Chixia Army prison one more time.

But we were just about to set off.

Thinking of the word 'smooth sailing' that Grandpa Luo said last night.

Because she was pleased with herself, Yan Ruyu picked up the wine and drank it.

Actually, last night wasn't the first time she had drunk it. When she was a child, she secretly drank it once with His Majesty, and that time she didn't wake up until noon the next day.

She was so frightened that she realized she had missed her martial arts training.

So I never dared to drink it again.

But she still remembers the taste; it was a bit spicy, a bit astringent, and quite delicious.

As I grew up, I was always by His Majesty's side, and thinking that drinking would cause trouble, I stopped touching that stuff.

But when I occasionally saw His Majesty and others drinking, I still wanted to try it, but I always managed to control myself.

Until last night.
The word "satisfying" prompted Yan Ruyu to immediately step forward, pick up the wine, and drink it after hearing what Old Master Luo had said.

It still tastes good.

I felt dizzy and confused after drinking it.

Today, hearing those words, I thought of the word "smooth sailing".

So after hearing those things, Yan Ruyu came to the entrance of Chengtian Gate.

There are things I used to keep to myself, but now I don't want to keep them to myself anymore.

There are some things we didn't do before, but now we have to do.

Because she wanted to do what she wanted, she didn't care about being scolded by His Majesty and the Empress, as long as they didn't call her fat.

A moment later, the Imperial Guard captain spoke to Yan Ruyu: "Commander Yan, the officials have finished their court session."

After hearing the thanks, Yan Ruyu stood up and looked towards the door.

He didn't have a knife on his waist; he came empty-handed.

Just standing there.

Don't say
Ruyu is already beautiful, and standing like this, she exudes a heroic and dashing aura.

Ruyu leaned forward to look into the entrance of Chengtian Gate.

A steady stream of officials descended from the dragon wall and were walking in this direction.

only.
A small number of officials looked nervous, wiping sweat from their foreheads as they walked.

Dugu Ruyuan, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, walked alone, unconcerned about the gazes of the surrounding officials.

However, as Li Chunfang walked past Dugu Ruyuan, she smiled slightly and pointed to the Censorate official who was walking quickly ahead.

Dugu Ruyuan looked up and saw the old man who held the position of Chief Censor in the Censorate, holding the hem of his court robe with one hand and walking unsteadily.

Li Chunfang asked in a low voice, "Grandpa Kuanqi has had a tough time too. He's so old, and he still suffered like this today."

Dugu Ruyuan smiled and said, "When I reported on Deputy Commander Yan this morning, he was in good health."

Li Chunfang smiled and shook her head: "It's not just him who's healthy, Old Master He over there is the same, isn't he?"

Dugu Ruyuan glanced at the man's back and said nothing more. She watched as the two young officials went forward to help him up, and after a moment she sighed, "Your Majesty helped arrest Bai Gui and uncovered so many things. His Majesty had already suspected this. The Dali Temple has lost face again."

Li Chunfang smiled and patted Dugu Ruyuan on the shoulder, then comforted her, "The capital prefecture is even more shameful, it's alright."

Dugu Ruyuan glared at Li Chunfang, the fat man.

However, Li Chunfang immediately followed up with, "But Her Majesty has personally helped you, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, arrest so many people. Shouldn't you be used to it by now?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Chunfang hurriedly grabbed the hem of her court robe and ran away.

Dugu Ruyuan frowned as she watched Li Chunfang's retreating figure. What could she say? She couldn't say anything. She could only sigh and look at the tense backs of the officials.

Today, the list obtained from the interrogation was brought to the imperial court without authorization.

He thought that the Empress's actions at the Jingzhao Prefecture yesterday were very strange. After all, how could the Empress have happened to be there when His Majesty ordered them to investigate Bai Gui?

At first, I couldn't think of anything.
However, the interrogation of Bai Gui went surprisingly smoothly. As soon as the torture instruments were brought out, Bai Gui and the gang leader confessed everything.

The matter involved far more than he had imagined.

Therefore, Dugu Ruyuan thought that His Majesty was trying to intimidate the enemy.

Now that things are mostly settled, it's time to deal with the filth hidden beneath the surface.

Just like how His Majesty and His Majesty have dealt with so many people since they returned, they were all minor characters, but these minor characters were precisely the ones who stood in their way.

Therefore, he presented the list to His Majesty during the morning court session.

His Majesty's reaction was exactly as Dugu Ruyuan had expected.

This further confirms the matter that Dugu Ruyuan had envisioned.
Your Majesty, it is time to take action against the King of Shu.

Or rather, it was time to truly begin testing the King of Shu.

After all, reputation, the national treasury, and the cleanup of internal corruption—each step of these developments is a precursor to action.

But these things had nothing to do with him, the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review; he was only in charge of investigating cases and arresting people.

Just as he said.
Shame!

The Dali Temple is so disgraceful!
These matters can be investigated, but the results require His Majesty and the Empress to personally intervene.

Shame on you!
Xun Kuang was the one who ran ahead of the officials leaving court, mainly because he was really anxious!
He needed to find a place to have a couple of drinks to bolster his courage before heading to see Commander Yan.

But.
I'm so scared!

With his eyes looking like this, Ji Shuying would often make fun of him at home.

Moreover, when I think about how my teacher was also beaten on the day I was beaten, I realize that this is all baseless accusation.

But you can't say anything, because if you try to reason with them, they won't listen to you. If you fight, what can you use to fight?
Today's matter was ordered by His Majesty, and I couldn't disobey the decree, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and proceed.

So you need to drink a couple more glasses to boost your courage, otherwise you'll go weak in the knees when you see Yan Datong leading the way.

Xun Siye

However, just as Xun Kuang was hurrying along with his head down, he suddenly heard a somewhat familiar voice.

Look up.

Whoops!

Xun Kuang subconsciously took two steps back.

But seeing Yan Ruyu clasp his hands in a salute to him, Xun Kuang quickly returned the salute, saying, "Vice Commander Yan."

Yan Ruyu looked at Xun Kuang's face and felt a little embarrassed. Although she had apologized before, she still felt a bit awkward when she actually saw him.

Xun Kuang looked at Yan Ruyu and wondered what she was doing here!

But seeing Yan Ruyu staring at him, he quickly said, "Commander Yan, did those gentlemen see that? Today I didn't complain about your trip to the Cui residence. Instead, I was the one who suffered because of these gentlemen. You need to keep an eye on them."

Yan Ruyu glanced curiously at the censors and other government officials, then blinked her big eyes and looked at Xun Kuang with a puzzled expression.

Xun Kuang immediately said, "It was these people who impeached you."

But despite his words, seeing Yan Ruyu's bewildered expression and remembering how badly he had beaten him that day, Xun Kuang felt compelled to say a few words.

You have such an innocent and naive face, yet you're the one doing the beating!
After saying "Oh," Yan Ruyu looked at the officials.
