Eight-year-old Princess: Phoenix Reborn

When we arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, Yun Chang was left empty. Liu Wen'an and Luo Qingyan were not there. The servant guarding the door saw Yun Shang and hurriedly saluted: "I pay my respects to the Empress. Did the Empress come to see Your Majesty? The palace servants from the Supreme Harmony Palace have been here, so His Majesty took Manager Liu to the direction of the Supreme Harmony Palace."

Yun Chang narrowed her eyes slightly, Taihe Palace? But Xia Huanyu had something to discuss with Luo Qingyan?

Yun Shang secretly guessed in her heart, but still smiled lightly on her face: "Oh? It's a coincidence that this palace came here. It was originally here to give ginger soup to His Majesty. If this is the case, let His Majesty return to Weiyang The same goes for Gong Drinking."

After Yunshang finished speaking, she turned around and said to Qian Zhuo, "Let's go, let's go back."

Qianzhuo responded, followed behind Yunshang, turned around and walked towards Weiyang Palace along the way when he came. Yun Shang kept thinking in her heart, if Xia Huanyu came to Luo Qingyan, it would be for just a few things. One is to ask Luo Qingyan to choose a concubine, the other is for Xia Houjing's affairs, and the third is for the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

However, no matter whether it is any one of these three things, it is not a good thing.

Yun Chang frowned, gathered the cloak she was wearing, and let the cold wind pour into the clothes.

Back at Weiyang Palace, Shen Ke and Qinghao were still standing at the entrance of the main hall of Weiyang Palace, and they quickly saluted Yun Shang.

When Yunshang returned to the inner hall, she asked Qianzhuo to bring the ginger soup to the small kitchen to heat up, then took a book to read, but her face never relaxed. Seeing Qin Yi coming in from the outside, Yun Shang raised her head and walked behind the table, picked up a pen and wrote a line on the paper, and handed it to Qin Yi to read. Qin Yi nodded after reading it, then threw the paper into the brazier on the side, and backed out again.

Yun Chang watched the fire in the brazier suddenly burst into flames and burned up the paper, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"Niang Niang." Shen Ke's voice came from outside, Yun Shangfang went to the chair and sat down, then brought a book, and said loudly: "Come in."

Shen Ke lifted the bead curtain and came in from the outside, then hastily bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the guards in our palace just came and said that the palace people in the House of Internal Affairs have finished their interrogation, and they have a lot of news for your Majesty." report."

Yun Shang noticed that Shen Ke's eyes were looking at the brazier under Yun Shang's feet, so he frowned, nodded and said: "Okay, you go out first, I will come right away."

Shen Ke responded, and slowly backed out. Only then did Yun Shang look at the brazier at her feet. There were ashes from the burning paper inside. The ashes hadn't completely dissipated yet, so she could tell at a glance that it was a piece of paper.

Yun Chang raised her eyes and looked around, then took out a plum blossom from the vase on the side, stirred the paper ashes in the brazier until no traces could be seen, and then took the plum blossom again. Picking up the plum blossom, I was about to insert the plum blossom into the vase, but saw that the underside of the plum blossom had been soaked in water, it was pitch black, as if it had been painted with ink.

Yun Chang's eyes paused for a moment, and then there was a coldness in his eyes.

There were footsteps outside, Yun Chang quickly put the plum blossom back into the vase, then turned and walked out.

A man wearing a guard uniform stood in the main hall, Yun Shang went to a chair and sat down, before asking: "Stop saluting, tell me, what did you ask?"

The guard quickly responded, then took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed them to Yunshang: "These are the testimonies signed and signed by those palace officials in the House of Internal Affairs, please have a look at the empress."

Yun Chang reached out to take them, and looked at them one by one, but the corners of her mouth gradually turned up, and the coldness in her eyes became more and more intense: "I can't see it at all, Li Fuhua looked so honest A person like him has done so many unforgivable things in secret. I really want to see how he can justify himself with so many witnesses now? Let’s go, let’s go to the Internal Guard.”

Yun Shang stood up, but remembered that Qin Yi and Qian Zhuo had been sent to do other things by herself. After pondering for a moment, he raised his eyes to Shen Ke and Qinghao and said, "You two can accompany me for a walk."

Qinghao is hers, so there is no need to worry. Although Shen Ke was sent by Xia Huanyu to stare at her, he was superior in martial arts, and although Xia Huanyu hoped that Luo Qingyan could choose a concubine, it would not be against her. For Shen Ke, she is at least a little more at ease than other people in Weiyang Palace.

Shen Ke and Qinghao hurriedly responded, followed behind Yunshang, and followed the guard towards the inner guard.

The internal guard was a little far away from Weiyang Palace, so Qing Hao arranged for a step to come, and Yunshang stepped up, and after about half an hour, they arrived at the gate of the internal guard. Qi Ruihai seemed to have received the news long ago, and was already standing at the door of the inner guard waiting: "The servant pays his respects to the empress."

Yun Chang smiled and said: "Eunuch Qi doesn't need to be too polite, since Eunuch Qi is here, why not go with me to talk to Eunuch Li, I heard that Eunuch Qi and Eunuch Li are not bad. "

Hearing the words, Qi Ruihai's expression moved slightly, but he didn't make any excuses, and only responded softly: "Yes."

Yun Shang was a little surprised, and Qi Ruihai also looked at him with admiration. Now that Li Fuhua is in such a situation, if it is someone else, it may be too late to draw a clear line with him. But Qi Ruihai didn't defend himself, his attitude seemed to acquiesce to Yun Shang's words.

Yun Chang hooked the corners of her mouth, nodded and said: "This is Eunuch Qi's territory, so I will trouble Eunuch Qi to lead me a way."

Qi Ruihai complied, then walked to the front, took two steps, then turned around and said with a bent waist: "Please come inside, empress."

It's not the first time Yunshang has come to the inner guard. The last time Qianzhuo was locked in the inner guard and escaped from prison, Yunshang came here the second day. After entering the inner hall and passing through a courtyard, there are several rooms. There are steps leading to the ground in the room, which is the prison.

After going down the steps, there is a brightly lit place for interrogating prisoners. There is a table surrounded by some instruments of torture. Go through there and go inside, and you will be in the prison.

Because Yunshang ordered the entire Palace of Internal Affairs to be locked in, every cell in the entire Internal Guard was full of people. Going to the innermost part is the place where special prisoners are held. There are two connected cells, and Li Fuhua is locked in the first cell on the left.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Li Fuhua didn't seem to be interested at all. He just sat leaning on the dry grass in the corner, his gray hair was loose, and he looked a bit embarrassed.

"Eunuch Li, the Empress has come to see you." Qi Ruihai walked to the door of the cell with a very soft voice.

Li Fuhua raised his head when he heard the words, but he looked at Qi Ruihai first, with a bit of disdain in his eyes, he sneered, then turned his gaze to Yun Shang, and then changed into a flattering smile : "This slave really deserves to die for bothering the empress to come to such a filthy place. I just ask the empress to be aware of the details. The slave is really wronged. Although the slave was a little dereliction of duty and failed to find out the problem with the cup in time, but That cup was indeed made by those craftsmen. Yes, it must be those craftsmen who wanted to rebel."

In the Weiyang Palace, Li Fuhua was afraid that something was urgent, so he could not find an excuse to prove that he was not guilty. Now that he thought about it carefully in the prison, he weighed the difference between the two charges of dereliction of duty and rebellion. Which is more important.

However, Yunshang was unwilling to give Li Fuhua another chance to stand up.

Thinking in her heart, Yun Chang raised her eyes and smiled at Li Fuhua, before saying softly, "Don't worry, Eunuch Li, although I'm confused, I'm not so confused as to wrong a good person. Since Eunuch Li said he was innocent Yes, that's fine. Come here, open the cell door and bring Eunuch Li out, so we can have a detailed chat about this matter."

A look of doubt flashed in Li Fuhua's eyes, but he quickly covered it up, and quickly responded, smiling and saying: "Thank you, my servant, thank you, my servant."

The corner of Yun Chang's mouth curled up slightly, then turned around again, and walked out of the long cell. When they arrived at the interrogation place, Qinghao wiped the stool with her clothes quickly, and then let Yunshang sit down.

Li Fuhua was escorted out by the guards and knelt down in front of Yunshang. Yun Shang didn't make a sound, just looked at Li Fuhua with a smile. Li Fuhua shrank slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, you might as well call those craftsmen and confront this servant. I really don't know why those craftsmen made such cups."

Yun Chang smiled slightly, she was not stupid, she would not follow Li Fuhua's words. Li Fuhua dared to say this because he was definitely not able to escape the guilt of negligence of duty. If he dared to ask the craftsmen to confront him, he must be holding the handle of those craftsmen. No matter what the crime was, the craftsmen would definitely admit it.

"Director Li has just come out of it, so he must have found out that the entire House of Internal Affairs is locked up here. I was also afraid that Eunuch Li would be wronged, so I asked the guards to interrogate everyone in the House of Internal Affairs one by one. But Before the crime of Eunuch Li was established, I did not tell everyone what happened to Eunuch Li, so I might as well read the testimony of everyone in the House of Internal Affairs to Mr. Li."

Yunshang smiled slightly, took out the thick stack of testimonies from the sleeve, and handed it to Qinghao: "Qinghao, please read it to our Eunuch Li."

Qinghao quickly took it, coughed lightly, and then raised her voice: "Li Fuhua's crime 1: accepting bribes privately, and providing forbidden medicine Wushi powder to the concubine in the palace. Li Fuhua's crime 2: having an affair with the concubine in the palace. Li Fuhua's crime three: smuggling things from the palace out of the palace to seek money. Li Fuhua's crime four..."

Li Fuhua's complexion gradually became ugly, and he quickly said: "Empress Empress, I don't know who provided these things to Empress Empress, but that person really has ulterior motives and deliberately framed the servant."

As Li Fuhua said, his gaze shifted toward Qi Ruihai who was beside him. \u003c
