Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Xie Yuer walked lightly with a gentle smile on her lips.

She looked at the maids in front of her with different expressions and said softly, "Yuer understands the maids' intentions.

However, there are undercurrents in the palace now, and the maids must have seen it.

If it is not rectified, I am afraid that beneath this calm surface, there may be huge waves and disasters at any time.

I hope the maids can help Yuer more for the many years of friendship we have had with the palace, and we can work together to keep the palace peaceful."

Nanny Liu frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Finally, she nodded and sighed, "Since the princess is determined, we old servants should do our best.

But the affairs of the harem are always complicated, so I hope the princess will be more careful."

Xie Yuer knew in her heart that resolving the obstacles posed by these old maids was only the first step in a long journey, and there was still a long way to go.

She knew very well that she had to find ironclad evidence as soon as possible and completely eliminate those restless concubines in order to truly quell the turmoil in the harem.

So Xie Yuer walked to the study and discussed countermeasures with Zhu Gang.

After hearing what she said, Zhu Gang frowned slightly.

After a brief thought, Zhu Gang decisively ordered like a commander dispatching troops: "Let the Hidden Dragon Guard handle this matter. They act in secret and will definitely be able to find evidence."

After saying this, Zhu Gang immediately summoned Zhang Long, the leader of the Hidden Dragon Guard, and gave him a stern order: "Zhang Long, you will lead the Hidden Dragon Guard immediately and do your best to track down the whereabouts of Concubine Wang, Concubine Zhang, and Concubine Li.

I want you to dig deep into the ground and leave no clues unturned. You must find evidence that they are colluding with outsiders and intending to disrupt the palace."

Zhang Long knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

After saying this, he took the order and left quickly like a gust of black wind.

Under the leadership of Zhang Long, the Hidden Dragon Guards searched everywhere inside and outside the palace like well-trained hunting dogs.

They shuttled through the streets and alleys, sneaked into every hidden corner, and did not miss any suspicious spots.

Finally, his hard work paid off. Zhang Long found solid evidence that concubines Wang, Zhang and Li were colluding with outsiders and intended to disrupt the palace.

Zhang Long then hurried back to the palace and presented the evidence to Zhu Gang.

Zhu Gang looked at the evidence on the table and his face instantly turned gloomy.

He shouted angrily: “How dare these bitches be so bold!

Trying to disrupt my palace and ruin the situation in my royal court is an unforgivable crime!"

Xie Yu'er's beautiful eyes were frosty as she said softly, "My husband, now that the evidence is solid, how should we deal with them?"

Zhu Gang pondered for a moment, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let me off easily!

We must kill one to warn the rest, so as to serve as a warning to others.

Let the others in the mansion know that this is the fate of those who dare to have evil intentions!"

Xie Yuer nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

“My husband is wise, this is the only way to ensure peace in the palace.

However, this matter needs to be handled with caution to avoid any further incidents."

Zhu Gang's expression was as cold as ice, and he decisively ordered the three people to be driven out of the Prince of Jin's Mansion one after another.

On this day, in front of the palace gate, the king's concubines and others were crying like dogs that had lost their homes.

How could they be willing to be expelled, but they could not change this predetermined fate.

The concubine's face was covered with tears, and she cried out, "Your Highness, you can't be so heartless!

We have followed you for many years, and even if we have no credit, we have worked hard for you!"

Zhu Gang snorted coldly and said sternly: "You colluded with outsiders and intended to disrupt the palace. Your crime is unforgivable!
I, the king, have been merciful by not imposing severe punishment on you out of consideration for our past friendship.

Get out of here! "

In the end, they were kicked out by Zhu Gang like the disgusting filth in the courtyard.

After dealing with these three people, Zhu Gang knew that the situation in the harem was still like a sea full of reefs. It seemed calm, but in fact it was full of dangers.

How easy is it to truly create an atmosphere of harmony?

He thought that Xu Miaoyun and Fang Shuxiu were like innocent lambs who suffered a lot of injustice in the previous disputes.

Moreover, both of them have always fulfilled their duties and are trustworthy.

The maids Qiaoyu and Cuizhu around them have followed their masters for many years and are meticulous and loyal to them.

Zhu Gang thought: If I take Qiaoyu and Cuizhu as concubines, it would be the highest reward for their loyalty.

On the other hand, Qiaoyu and Cuizhu have a deep friendship with their former master.

In the future, when dealing with the affairs of the harem, they will be able to coordinate better and promote harmony and stability in the harem.

Furthermore, this can also strengthen the power of Xu Miaoyun and Fang Shuxiu to a certain extent and prevent similar disputes from happening again.

Of course, Zhu Gang also understood that this move might bring about some complex problems.

For example, other concubines might become jealous, thinking that this is favoritism towards Xu Miaoyun and Fang Shuxiu, thus causing new conflicts.

In order to avoid this situation, after Zhu Gang requested Empress Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang to take Qiaoyu and Cuizhu as concubines, he specially set up a banquet in the backyard and invited all the concubines to attend.

At the banquet, the sound of stringed instruments was melodious and everyone took their seats.

Zhu Gang sat in the main seat and looked around at everyone.

He looked solemn and slowly said, “There have been constant disputes in the palace recently, and you have all suffered a lot of grievances.

The reason why I took Qiaoyu and Cuizhu as my concubines is that I value their loyalty and abilities.

I hope you two can assist Miaoyun and Shuxiu and jointly maintain the harmony of the palace.

In the future, I hope that you will put the overall situation first and not cause any more trouble, so that the palace can return to its former peace and tranquility."

Although everyone had their own thoughts after hearing this, they all agreed.

One of the concubines stood up, bowed and said, "Your Highness must be doing this for the sake of the palace. We will obey your orders."

Zhu Gang nodded slightly, and carefully selected the two dancers Cui'er and Hong'er, both with superb dancing skills, to serve Xu Miaoyun and Fang Shuxiu.

He personally instructed Cui'er and Hong'er to serve their two masters attentively and to create a harmonious atmosphere.

After this rectification, the rear quarters of Prince Jin's Mansion gradually returned to peace.

However, the calm was only an appearance, and the mysterious force did not give up.

Recently, Zhu Gang has frequently encountered some inexplicable impeachments in the court. These impeachments were like sudden arrows. Although he cleverly resolved them, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Gang told Xie Yuer about this matter.

Xie Yuer frowned slightly, keenly realizing that this might be related to the mysterious letter found before, so she discussed with Zhu Gang to secretly send someone to investigate.

Xie Yuer said softly: "Husband, this matter is probably not simple.

The power behind the mysterious letter may still be working in secret.

We need to proceed with caution and send people to investigate secretly to uncover the truth behind this mystery."

Zhu Gang nodded and said solemnly: "Madam, what you said is absolutely right.

I immediately arranged for someone to conduct a secret investigation.

We must find out who is behind this!"

Although Xu Miaoyun was grateful for Fang Shuxiu and Xie Yuer's help in some matters, she was still frightened by the previous struggle in the backyard.

Those past experiences haunted her like a nightmare.

That day, Xu Miaoyun sat alone in her room, thinking back to the days when she was ostracized by the concubines.

She cried alone in the middle of the night countless times, her tears soaking her pillow.

Xu Miaoyun was hoping that Xie Yuer would show up in time like a savior to stop the situation, but every time Xie Yuer was always late.
