first class maid

Chapter 283: Harem Shuffle (3)
Seeing his helpless smile, Xun Zhen laughed heartlessly, but when he stared at him, he said, "If I were really a Taoist, I wouldn't be here with you now." For him, she You can also abandon your principles.

Yu Wenhong kissed her apologetically for a long time, "If I have this affair with you again in the evening, it won't be so difficult." He blamed him for thinking that it would be all right to just use her Xun family status, but who would have thought that it would be so difficult? Develop an affair with her?

"I don't want it. If I stay in the evening for a few years, I might not like you." Xun Zhen smiled. He gave her a bad impression before. If he becomes the emperor, I'm afraid it will get worse and give her a thousand Courageous, she didn't want to be close to him.

"Do you dare not like Gu?" He hugged her waist domineeringly.

She giggled lowly, enjoying the tender moment in the corner of Fengyi Palace at this moment.

Suddenly, Sun Datong knocked on the door, "Your Highness, your mother's condition has changed."

Yu Wenhong let go of Xun Zhen, frowned, did not expect the meeting to be so short, bowed his head and kissed her passionately for a while, then reluctantly took her hand and pushed open the palace door to go out.

Empress Tang was critically ill for a time, and even the emperor rushed over. Empress Tang, who had been in a coma for a few days, had thinned cheeks and dry skin. How could she still have the grace and luxury of the past?

Yu Wentai felt quite uncomfortable when he saw it. This wife was the most respectful in his memory, so he couldn't help roaring: "Have you found out the reason?"

"Father, my son doesn't know whether to say it or not?" Yu Wenhong cupped his hands in embarrassment.

"What else should I say now?" Yu Wentai said angrily, and then coughed, his body has not been feeling well for the past two days.

Yu Wenhong then said, "The new abbot of Wenpu'an and the officials of Qin Tianjian all said that there are people in the palace who practice witchcraft, so the queen mother suddenly fell ill, and it was out of control."

"What?" Yu Wentai stood up and said in surprise, he fell back into the chair with a sway, his face was extremely ugly, this kind of thing is the most taboo in the palace. "Xuan they come to see me."

Yu Wenhong nodded and asked people to bring in all relevant personnel.

Both the new abbot and the officials of the Qin Tianjian said in unison that there was a villain's actions, and Zhu Gonggong, the chief eunuch of the Hualong Palace who was serving the emperor, also stood up at this time and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the slaves have done this!" The last time I found a straw man full of needles on the path that the emperor often walks, it seems that that person is not only bad for the empress, but also bad for the emperor."

"Why didn't you report to me earlier?" Yu Wentai said angrily.

Eunuch Zhu hurriedly knelt down, "I am afraid that your Majesty will be displeased by talking nonsense, and these things are taboo in the palace. At that time... Your Majesty's body was still healthy, so I didn't report it. Recently, my servant has seen that His Majesty's dragon body is becoming more and more inconsistent. , I wonder if it has something to do with the needle-pricking grass man in the dark? After thinking about it again and again, I dare not lie to the emperor again, and ask the emperor to punish me."

"Father, it's reasonable for Eunuch Zhu not to dare to say it. I didn't expect that there are still people who want to murder the father and mother. You can't get used to this kind of thing. In my opinion, it is safe to search the palace." Yu Wen Hong Pao lifted his clothes and knelt down, and also relieved Eunuch Zhu in a timely manner.

The witchcraft case that occurred in the Renxu year later left a deep imprint on the history books. When historians of later generations mentioned the emperor Yuwentai, they would always mention this witchcraft case. The pattern of the former dynasty and the rear palace had a profound impact.

Xun Zhen's heart skipped a beat when he heard the word "witch gu". How dare someone do such a rebellious thing in the palace?Or is there something hidden behind it? "Sir Shanggong, do you really want to search the palace? Has this kind of thing never happened in the Huaguo Palace?"

"Your Majesty's decree has already been made, and we are not allowed to say anything about this matter, Xun Zhen, so don't think too much about it. This is a matter for the upper-level masters and does not involve palace people." Xu You said coldly.

There was a loud dry sky thunder outside, and Xun Zhen's heart jumped violently. When he turned his head, he saw Xu You's face half-bright and half-dark, like the clay bodhisattva sitting in the temple, where light and darkness coexist. , she realized that she didn't know Xu You so well, maybe her previous understanding was a bit self-righteous.

Xu You didn't seem to care much about Xun Zhen's scrutiny, but raised his head to look at the white clouds in the blue sky, and there was another thunder, and it was time for the palace to reshuffle.

Overnight, everyone in the palace was in panic, worried that they would be involved in the witchcraft case for no reason, and all the maids and eunuchs gathered during this day, waiting for orders.

The six senior court ladies and the eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Ministers jointly went to the palaces of several concubines, and the search for the palace was also the first to start with the powerful and suspected masters.

Concubine Liu De watched Wang Yingshangyi lead the people forward, and asked them to move the chairs to the courtyard outside, "I am not afraid of the shadows slanting, Wang Shangyi searches at will."

"The maidservants are just following the order, and I hope the empress will forgive me." Wang Yingshangyi performed a standard palace ceremony, and when she saw Concubine Liu De's head bowed, she ordered everyone to go in and search, "Be careful of the items in the empress's palace."

Concubine Liu De gently picked the tea bowl and began to sip slowly, this Wang Ying is quite good at life, she praised it from her heart.

On the other side, Xu You led Xun Zhen and the others to the Guiqi Palace under the leadership of the officials of the Qin Tianjian holding a compass, while at this time Concubine Feng Gui sat there calmly waiting for them Come to search the palace.

After Xu You saluted, when Concubine Feng saw that the leader here was Xu You, she became wary and said arrogantly: "Xu Shanggong, be careful about the decorations in this palace. If there is any damage, I'm afraid you will pay for it." I can't afford it either."

"Please also move your empress to the outer hall. The maids and eunuchs who searched the palace this time are all well-trained people, so they will never touch the items in your empress' bedroom." Xu You also said coldly.

Concubine Feng Gui winked at her confidant, asking her to watch Xu You's every move. This woman is not trustworthy, and the evidence she has now shows that she has a very close relationship with the prince, so she must not be allowed to act casually .

Time passed quietly, Concubine Feng sat in the main hall in front of her with closed eyes and rested her mind, but the hand tightly clutching the chair revealed her nervous mood, filtering out the people in her palace one by one, but she was still worried , There are too many non-existent things.
