Empress, she is the darling of the Emperor's hand

Chapter 1078 Someone moved again 13
The emperor is still cold but never talks nonsense, right down to the emperor in the center.

As soon as the faint question came out, the expressions of the heads of different departments in the palace who were escorted in changed. After a pause, they continued to beg for mercy and explanation even more fiercely.

A bold female official in charge of clothing made an excuse to the emperor with a pale face: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty forgives me for my sin. This slave has been wronged! I didn't know about the eunuchs' persecution of concubines. The masters of the harem went to the Weaving Department to get materials." Clothes are always sent by eunuchs. When the eunuchs come to collect the copies, the slaves just think that they are sent by the concubines. They don’t know that the eunuchs deceived them and took the copies back and held them in their hands!”

"All the slaves were kept in the dark. Your Majesty knows for sure!"

"Yes, please forgive me, Your Majesty... the servants don't even know that the eunuch deceived the superiors and concealed the truth!"

Several supervisors also started to push the pot out.

The emperor did not get angry when he heard this, and his face did not change color. He just said quietly: "I don't know? Deceived? Why do you think you were brought in front of me? Did General Gao bring someone here at random?"

"More than a month ago, a eunuch named Dali came to the weaving department to pick up brocades. The female official Xue Lian deliberately sent away the other young eunuchs who came to pick up brocades. She took down all the brocades from the two palaces and gave them only to eunuch Dali. This was unintentional. ? Is this because you don’t know?”

"The deputy general manager of the Imperial Kitchen, the little eunuch who owns the Imperial Kitchen, reported that you follow the instructions of Eunuch Dali every day and allocate different meals to the concubines. Eunuch Dali said that only when there is meat and vegetables, can the meals be both meat and vegetables, Eunuch Dali said If you are inferior, you prepare inferior meals. You are kept in the dark and don’t know anything. There are rules for what kind of meals a concubine should have. You don’t distribute them according to the rules, okay?"

"The two great maids of the Palace Ladies Department, Qingkong Qingyun, accepted bribes from the chief eunuch of the Eunuch Department, Dali, to control the maids assigned to different palaces. They ordered the concubines who did not obey the persecution of Dali to persecute the concubines together, and also obeyed the assignment of Dali. , taking back all the maids and leaving the concubines to do their own thing, is this innocent?"

The emperor looked calm and did not let the female stewards say a word. He said in a calm voice: "Colluding with the eunuchs to cause trouble in the palace, deceiving superiors and subordinates, and persecuting the master. Originally this was a serious crime, but he lied in front of me. This is The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by execution. Take him aside and behead him in front of the west palace gate at noon tomorrow."

The emperor's words shocked everyone in Long Ao Palace. They didn't expect the emperor to be so neat and straightforward! ! !

The several female stewards didn't even have a chance to cry out and beg for mercy. The emperor didn't even need to listen to their arguments and directly ordered his beheading!
The female stewards, who had never thought that there would be such a battle and that they would be beheaded directly, were stunned. They stood there with dull expressions on their faces, as if they still couldn't believe that they were being dragged down.

I don’t know if there was a deeper meaning, but after the female steward was dragged down, the emperor said lightly to General Gao: "Take someone to watch them. If no one has anything else to report, they will be executed tomorrow."

This faint sentence, for some reason, made Concubine Huan and Concubine Zhu who was kneeling aside, as well as Ling Cai and Eunuch Zhong who were watching the whole process in the palace and were not yet interrogated, feel inexplicably shuddered in their hearts and feel a little chilly in their bodies.

"Bring the Lingcai people up." The emperor said calmly.

When Lingcai Ren, who was feeling cold all over, trembled violently when she heard this, she walked up to the emperor and knelt down with a bang. She obviously wanted to complain about how she was persecuted by the eunuchs, but she was speechless for some reason.
