Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 511 There are clues
Han Zicheng rolled his eyes in pain. He looked at his hand, which was already bruised and purple.

"I want... to go before His Majesty... to expose you..."

Han Zicheng gritted his teeth and spit out every word.During the day he crushed Yan Chong's bones, at night he crushed his hand bones, and he was taking revenge for Yan Chong.

But the emperor was the one who killed Yan Chong, if Yan Mu still had a thought of revenge for Yan Chong, then the emperor would definitely kill him to avoid future troubles.

"You crushed the bones of my hand...I want your life..." Han Zicheng smiled ferociously and viciously.

Yan Mu snorted, stepped on Han Zicheng's forehead, and crushed it hard. Under Han Zicheng's horrified gaze, he laughed heartily, "Look at you, how dirty and disgusting you are, like a hairless cat. dog."

Thinking of something, Han Zicheng quickly clamped his legs, with shame and hatred on his face, he growled at Yan Mu: "You hurt me!"

"I harmed you?" Yan Mu snorted, but didn't think much about this sentence, "You are not the first one to bully a court lady by taking advantage of your status as chief eunuch, you can go to the emperor and sue the king , but what you did tonight can’t be covered. And this king is just investigating the case and found you.”

"Do you think His Majesty will believe it?"

Yan Mu bent down and whispered: "You are right, you really have to pretend."

When Yan Mu wasn't smiling, that face was already bright enough, but now that he was smiling, in this deep night, in this dirty room, it was like a flower soaked in morning dew and autumn frost, shining on the twilight and stars, The peonies, which are both holy and thrilling enough, are blooming.

If this is a gloomy painting, everyone is covered with a layer of darkness, only he is bright and agile, and he can jump out of this painting at any time.

Han Zicheng looked at Yan Mu, feeling a sense of inferiority and shame, which could not be suppressed.

Just like in the General's Mansion back then, he followed behind him, never raising his head.

Yan Mu couldn't see through Han Zicheng's thoughts, and in his opinion, there was no need to waste energy. He took out the portrait of the court lady he was looking for from his arms, kicked Han Zicheng away, walked up to the court lady who was being bullied, and opened his eyes. The portrait took a look.

"Tsk, there is still a three-point image, but unfortunately not."

"You!" Han Zicheng gritted his teeth, this was clearly a show, but this reason could prevaricate the emperor, but he couldn't cover up the fact that he insulted the court lady.

Yan Mu snorted and was about to stand up when the maid suddenly raised her head and said, "I know her."

Yan Mu was taken aback for a moment, "You said you know the person in this portrait?"

The palace maid shrank, and under Yan Mu's urgent gaze, she nodded timidly.

"Where is she now?"

The maid wrapped herself in her clothes, but couldn't hold back her mouth and began to cry, "Your Highness, Your Highness, please save this servant, this servant cannot stay in the palace anymore, he...he will not let this servant go!"

Yan Mu took a deep breath, stood up, and said to the officer behind him: "Take her back to the Ministry of Punishment first."

Two officials stepped forward, helped the maid, and then took her out first.

Yan Mu turned his head to look at Han Zicheng again, there was warning, disgust and playfulness in that look.

When Yan Mu left, Han Zicheng coaxed the eunuch away at the door, dressed tremblingly, and went to the West Factory with his crippled hand in his arms.

"The servant is not reconciled, even if he dies, he will go to the Holy Master to sue him, and ask the Governor to help me." Han Zicheng knelt in front of Shangguan Xu and cried and begged.

Shangguan Xu lowered his eyes and cast a sidelong glance at Han Zicheng. The disgust in his eyes was even heavier, as if he was looking at something, and he took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose.

"Don't bother him any more."

"Don't you want to kill him too?"

"It's not the time yet, don't hinder his investigation."

"Supervisor, he cut off the servant's body with a sword... Since then, the servant has been thrown into the camp of good thoughts, and now he has abolished the hand of the servant. If the servant does not avenge this revenge, he swears not to be human!"

Shangguan Xu snorted coldly, "It's just the loss of one hand."

"Master..."

"It's not as important as the governor's affairs."

Han Zicheng fell back and sat on the ground, knowing that he could not take revenge for the time being.

"Then when?"

Shangguan Xu took a deep breath, "Be patient for now."

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Xu bypassed Han Zicheng and walked out.

In the Criminal Department, Yan Mu was lying on the table, really wanting to plug his ears with something, while the other officials dozed off and looked at the crying person helplessly.

This court lady has been crying since she came to the lobby of the Ministry of Justice. She cried miserably. At first, everyone sympathized with her and thought to let her cry for a while, but it turned out to be good and couldn't stop.

"It must be an hour, right?" An official asked the one next to him.

"There must be."

"How can she cry so much, she can hold a bucket of tears."

"Unbelievable!"

"Is your mother-in-law crying like that too?"

"I don't have a wife."

"Then who has it?"

Several officials sent you to look at me, I looked at you, and finally looked at Yan Mu together.

Yan Mu thought of Liu Yunxiang, he had seen her cry before, but she cried beautifully, unlike the maid in front of him who cried so ugly.She didn't cry loudly, she was soft and soft, which made people feel distressed.

But she doesn't like to cry, probably because she has the ability to make those who bully her pay the price.

Yan Mu patted the table hard, and with a bang, the maid was startled, and the crying stopped immediately.

"Your Highness, this move is brilliant!" The official hurriedly flattered him.

The corner of Yan Mu's mouth twitched, "You guys learn a little bit."

Looking at the maid again, Yan Mu's eyes sank, "You said you know the person in this portrait?"

The palace maid hiccupped, but under Yan Mu's stern expression, she forcibly held back her sobs, "Yes, her name is Fei Yue, and she used to serve in Luo Han Palace."

Luohan Palace?Isn't this the Queen Mother's bedroom?

He also went to check, and no one knew the maid.

"When the Empress Dowager passed away, Feiyue had just entered the palace. Everyone was busy with the Empress Dowager's funeral, so they probably didn't pay much attention to her. The empress dowager's coffin was enshrined in Ziyun Temple, and a court lady was needed to burn incense and chant scriptures in the nunnery every day. No one wants to go because of poverty, Feiyue has just entered the palace and has no contacts, so the nurse in charge sent her this job."

"You know her?"

"The servant girl is from the same town as her, and we got to know each other after a word."

Yan Mu knocked on the table with his index finger, no wonder he couldn't find this lady-in-waiting, she was new here, not many people knew her, and she was not in the palace.

It was already late at night, and because of the famine in Shengjing, the imperial court imposed a curfew and the city gate was closed. Although he was anxious, he could not leave the city.

He didn't go back to the palace that night. Early the next morning, he hurried out of the punishment department, but saw Liu Yunxiang waiting for him at the door.

"I found the maid!"

"I found the maid!"

The two said it in unison, and then looked at each other in surprise.
