Rebirth of the entertainment industry

Chapter 234 The Great Purge

Thinking of this, the entire harem began to vibrate again...

Qin Heng disappeared from everyone's eyes again after this evidence incident. Although the emperor still wanted to force him to appear, the manpower and material resources consumed by doing so were too huge, so in the end, he could only do it hastily and put all of them away. His anger and attention were all focused on the murder of the concubine...

The concubine who was murdered was Qing Meiying, the daughter of a first-rank minister's family, and she was also loved in the mansion. Now that such a thing happened in the palace, this minister would definitely not let it go. It used to be because of suffering. There was no evidence, so he could only endure and investigate from the sidelines, but now that the evidence appeared, he would no longer be patient.

After all, she was her own daughter, who had been pampered, loved, and protected for so many years, and now she suddenly disappeared, how could they not be heartbroken?Not angry?Moreover, his daughter is very well-behaved on weekdays. Not only is she talented, but she is also beautiful. Not only is the emperor doting on her, but all the members of their family also like her very much.

Now that she is gone, the members of the minister's family are very angry.

Now that the evidence appeared, they also began to speak to the emperor.

Their family must not be bullied to this extent, so their family also started to act, the harem, and the front court suddenly became bloody.

Qin Heng's evidence is very sufficient, but it is also very secretive. It is only a small character on the surface, but everyone knows that there are many big fish hidden behind this character. Looking at this evidence, the emperor Can't help but have some headaches.

Because the harem is closely related to the former dynasty, this first-rank minister can now make so many troubles for his daughter. If this matter is really thoroughly investigated and the real mastermind behind him is brought out, then it will be No one can predict what kind of situation will happen.

But if the emperor just ignores it, it won’t work. As long as he is a sensible person, he can know that this little character is definitely not the real murderer, so even if the emperor is willing to calm down this matter, the minister and the people in the world He would not let it go, so under such circumstances, the emperor was really angry.

"Check it out for me! Check it out seriously! I want to see who dares to be so bold!" The emperor roared angrily, and those who served him stood there tremblingly, sweating coldly.

"Yes!" A minister bowed and replied, but the emperor just turned his gaze into the air, thinking about the events during this period, he couldn't help feeling even more unhappy.

It's just that it's not easy to get angry in front of the minister now, so after the emperor waved his hand to let the minister go, he stood up from the dragon chair and said, "Go to Concubine Wen."

The emperor said so, and the people below heard it, and they were immediately overjoyed. During these days, the emperor gradually stopped going to Wen Qingrou's side, which made those who were related to Wen Qingrou feel anxious. Now the emperor finally agreed How could they be unhappy?
When Wen Qingrou heard that the emperor was coming, she also beamed with joy.

She was originally an ambitious person. The emperor once doted on her and loved her, so she stepped on other women. Now the emperor gradually began to dislike her. Although she hated her in her heart, she was still on the surface. calm.

She is not a simple-minded person. If the emperor favors her, she will do what a concubine should do. If the emperor does not favor her, then she will restrain all her sharpness and only want to protect herself.

Now that the emperor has finally come, Wen Qingrou will of course use all her scheming methods to keep the emperor, so she started preparing early in the morning.

From hair to clothes, to shoes and socks, to makeup, everything is very delicate, and all of them reflect her softness, and after the emperor came, she even coaxed the emperor so softly that there was no trace of her in his heart. worries.

Looking at Wen Qingrou's ability, although the other concubines hated them in their hearts, they still had to put on a happy look on the surface. After all, Wen Qingrou's status in the harem was not low, and they, no matter whether they came first or later, Yes, they came in late, as long as they were lower than Wen Qingrou, they would not dare to provoke Wen Qingrou.

Because Wen Qingrou's methods are very cold, they dare not touch his edge easily.

However, among these people, several other concubines who were of the same status as Wen Qingrou were not included.

Although one concubine has died, there are still several concubines still alive.

Here, besides the concubine Wen Qingrou, there are three other concubines. The relationship between these three concubines and Wen Qingrou can only be described as good or bad. Qing Rou had the upper hand, but over the years, because of the changes in the emperor's taste, they were evenly matched.

But the next day, when the emperor left Wen Qingrou's bedroom and was about to go to court early, the eunuch beside the emperor came in. Looking at Wen Qingrou, the eunuch just whispered something in the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, yesterday The minister who investigated the case of Concubine Qing has already arrived and is waiting outside the imperial study."

The eunuch said so, but the emperor was a little surprised, "Why is it at this time?"

"The minister said that this matter is of great importance, and he absolutely dare not delay the slightest."

When the eunuch said so, the emperor's expression turned serious, "Do you know who is involved in this?" Everyone whispered in the emperor's ear, "It's only related to the two concubines in the palace, and the other servants don't know about it."

The eunuch said so, but the emperor's eyes suddenly flashed sharply, and then he returned to normal, "So, tell the courtiers to wait, I will see this minister first."

As the emperor said so, he went directly to the imperial study without saying hello to Wen Qingrou.

While Wen Qingrou looked at the back of the emperor leaving, his expression changed slightly.

"Do you know what's going on?" Wen Qingrou asked the eldest court lady next to her calmly, but the eldest palace lady watched the back of the emperor and others leaving, gritted her teeth, frowned and said: "The population around the emperor is very strict, slaves Haven't figured out what it is yet."

The big court lady said so, but Wen Qingrou frowned fiercely.

It's an eventful time now, and the emperor's behavior like this is really abnormal. Thinking of this, a flash of worry flashed in Wen Qingrou's eyes, and at the same time, a flash of cruelty flashed.

"Go and see what happened last time, they've dealt with it cleanly." Wen Qingrou ordered so, and after the big court lady responded, she walked out.

And Wen Qingrou sat in her own palace, looked at the sky outside the window, and tightly grasped the seat under her buttocks...

Time passed unhurriedly, but the emperor was furious in the imperial study, "Is everything you said true?"

"I don't dare to lie about anything." The minister said so, but the emperor's face turned livid. He had known for a long time that there must be people in high positions behind the scenes to make suggestions, but he did not expect that this This incident involved so many things that even he didn't know.

Flipping through the evidence and notes handed over by the minister, the emperor's lips trembled.

"Investigate, give me a thorough investigation, and all those involved in the case will be investigated and dealt with. If the circumstances are serious, they will be directly killed." The emperor said this, but the minister's face changed in shock, "But... the harem is also involved. There are many small masters among them, if they are really investigated, most of them will be implicated."

The minister said so, but the emperor looked at him with a livid face, and said fiercely: "No matter who is involved, no matter what the person's status is, you can do whatever you want. This time, I will kill the entire harem After the great cleansing, I will definitely not spare them lightly and let this kind of atmosphere prevail in the harem."

When the emperor said this, the minister's heart froze and he nodded, but he still respectfully asked for instructions: "Then how should I say it to the outside world?"

"Secret investigation, there is no need to spread the news outside the palace. If someone in the harem dies because of this incident, it will only be said that he died of illness, and there is no need for any other reasons or excuses."

As the emperor said this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but the minister shuddered when he heard this. After all, this time the matter involved a lot, if he really did what the emperor said , then this harem is about to be cleaned up.

Thinking of this, cold sweat flowed down the minister's forehead.

And in the harem, although the young masters didn't know the news yet, seeing the condensed atmosphere in the palace for the past few days, they gradually had some bad premonitions in their hearts. It was too big, and with Qin Heng's evidence, even they couldn't help being a little frightened.

And the Great Cleansing began very quickly under their fearful situation.

First the maids and eunuchs, the palace detained them one by one in a secret place in the palace in the name of investigation, then the little master with a relatively low status, then the concubine, then the concubine, and finally even Wen Qingrou was also called to drink tea by them.

Looking at the situation, there were still some young masters in the palace who hadn't been called over, all of them turned pale with fright.

After all, this matter is too terrifying. They have never seen such a posture before. Seeing that even Wen Qingrou and other concubines have been invited and have not come back for a day, they are all petrified and timid. Even hiding in the palace, dare not come out all day and all night, even those who are brave, only dare to walk around in their own palace and in the palace of their friends, such as imperial garden, lotus pond and other places, especially dare not take a step...
