During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Hou Cheng, the chamberlain, heard the screams, put down his tea and ran out. He saw the princess walking out of the main hall with an angry face, followed by Eunuch Fulin.

The palace maid in green clothes panicked, covered her bleeding eyes, climbed up from the window, and ran out.

An idea popped into Hou Cheng's mind, and someone was eavesdropping.

How dare you betray the princess!
Hou Cheng didn't care that there was still an injury on his butt, so he rushed out, stopped the palace maid, and kicked her to the ground.

"How dare you, this humble servant dare to eavesdrop on the princess."

Hou Cheng spoke righteously, with the corners of his mouth curved upward, and his eyes full of excitement. The princess should have calmed down now.

Just as Hou Cheng was about to step forward to ask for merit, the palace maid suddenly fell to the ground, twitched twice, and stopped moving. A large pool of brown blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"..." He didn't use any force?

Are you so powerful?
He actually kicked someone to death.

But as the blood flowing from the corner of the palace maid's mouth became darker and darker, Hou Cheng realized that he had done something wrong.

"Princess, please forgive me. I didn't know that she had already taken poison."

Princess Huandu waved her hand. Although her eyes were still angry, her mood was much better. "Forget it, it's none of your business. Send someone to carry her body out."

"Yes." Hou Cheng could tell that the princess was no longer angry and even walked a little faster.

Princess Huandu stamped her feet. The jade and orbs on her shoes were dangling, as if they might be thrown out at any time.

Eunuch Fulin comforted him: "Princess, don't be angry. There are many people like this in the palace. If everyone was angry, they would be angry to death."

How could Princess Huandu not be angry, "When I returned to the palace, there were only a few people around me. I carefully selected all the people who came after me, and I even had people check their backgrounds. There were no When I think about it, someone took advantage of me."

If the prince's brother is still here, how dare these people?
Suddenly I really hope that Brother Prince will come back soon.

"Princess, if you know that the water in this palace has never been clear, the background you think is innocent may have been forged by others. Maybe they have recognized your temperament and know what kind of person you will choose, so early It’s ready.”

Eunuch Fulin glanced at everyone. If everyone around the princess hadn't been injured on the way, no one would have taken advantage of such a big loophole.

Obviously the palace has been cleaned out several times, but it's still not clean!
Princess Huandu was slightly surprised and crushed her hard with her foot, "If you dare to do anything under my eyes, I will let them know how powerful I am today and ask your father-in-law to help me."

Eunuch Fulin slapped his face, thinking that she was going to do it by herself.

"Your Majesty is taking a nap. It should take a while, but the princess has thought about what to do? If the water is clear, there will be no fish. If we drive out all the people sent from outside, then they may not know what kind of method they will think of to deal with it later. Princess."

"What does the father-in-law say I should do?" Princess Huandu humbly asked for advice.

"Of course I will catch some, release some, chase some, and kill some. The princess is not used to doing such things, so why not let my disciples do it for you."

Yuan Li, who was thin and with ordinary facial features, stood up hunched over and stopped in front of Princess Huandu.

Princess Huandu looked him up and down and showed a weird smile: "Then I'll help Eunuch Yuan."

"Yes." His voice was hoarse, as if he had swallowed a handful of sand.

Princess Huandu frowned slightly, but at this moment Yuan Li raised his head, revealing a pair of bottomless eyes. He actually had no pupils.

Or can’t you see the pupils clearly?
Princess Huandu swallowed her saliva and became more polite, "I'd like to trouble you, Mr. Yuan."

The chamberlains in the palace are also divided into three, six or nine grades. Yuan Li has an official position of four grades, and calling him "sir" is more than enough.

"Princess is welcome."

Yuan Li summoned all the people in the princess palace together, one row for the maids and one row for the chamberlains.The next scene was too bloody, so Eunuch Fulin suggested that the princess avoid it.

Princess Huandu is a person who likes to be lively. If it were in the past, she would definitely not leave, but for some reason, when she thinks of Yuan Li's eyes, she gets goosebumps all over her body.

Hou Cheng finished throwing away the body and walked in with a happy face.

"Ah..." A scream came, so frightened that he almost knelt on the ground.

Grandma doesn’t want to live if she dares to shout in the palace, right?

Huh?
Why are they all standing here?
With the palace people standing all over the courtyard, Hou Cheng felt a terrifying aura coming over them.

At this time, Yuan Li's eyes fell on him.

Hou Cheng's heart skipped a beat, his calves kept trembling, and he slowly fell to the ground, his little face turned pale.

This spineless look made Yuan Li frown, "Go and serve the princess."

Huh?
As soon as a puzzled expression appeared on Hou Cheng's face, Yuan Li's cold eyes glanced at him. He was so frightened that he stood up in a panic, stumbled a few times, fell to the ground, and hurriedly got up, but when he passed by Yuan Li At this time, the body still fell to one side uncontrollably.

Miserable, miserable.

He won't be chopped alive!
Yuan Li was in charge of the torture chamber in the palace. His name, Hou Cheng, had been heard of him when he first entered the palace, and few people who had the opportunity to fall into his hands survived.

This time it was miserable.

However, the expected pain did not come, and someone picked up the collar.

Yuan Li raised his head and his cold black eyes met a pair of clasped hands. Hou Cheng muttered, "You can't see me, you can't see me..."

Yuan Li: "..."

Suddenly I didn't want to touch him anymore. How could such a stupid person be a spy sent by others.

Yuan Li was disgusted and threw Hou Cheng out as if he was throwing away garbage.

Hou Cheng didn't expect that praying would be useful. He opened his mouth and hurried to the main hall. He straightened his clothes a few steps away from the door and walked in with his head lowered.

"what……"

Screams and begging for mercy continued to be heard from Princess Huandu's palace. The palace residents passing by trembled and quickened their pace.

In less than half an hour, Yuan Li picked out four people. Three of them took poison and committed suicide. Another one had his hands and feet removed before Yuan Li could take the poison and threw him on the ground.

The palace maid and eunuch didn't dare to breathe, and beads of sweat like soybeans kept rolling down from the corners of their eyebrows and hitting the ground.

Some were timid and even fainted.

The result is to be splashed with cold water.

Hou Cheng was lying next to the yellow pear door, his ears pricked up, listening to the tragic situation in the yard, feeling uneasy.

At this time, Yuan Li noticed someone looking at him.

Two lines of sight shot past like cold knives.

Hou Cheng was so frightened that he took a breath, fell to the ground, and then fled back to the princess on his hands and feet, trembling.

Princess Huandu looked disgusted, "You useless thing, I'm not beating you, what are you afraid of?"
