The punishment of the female imperial court

Yu Qiansi looked towards Jiang Jiqing's side when she heard the voice, and saw Wang Song also looking in her direction.

Seeing him nod slightly, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When the old ministers saw the young emperor and Wang Song appear in front of them safely, both the Qingliu party and the Qiguo Mansion party breathed a sigh of relief and showed joy on their faces.

In the noisy and bustling scene, no one noticed that the two people's eyes met for only a moment.

Except for one person.

All these subtle tacit understandings fell into Bo Yi's eyes.

I felt even more tired for some reason, and my shoulders sank slightly.

Jiang Jiqing reached out and took a lantern from De Ming. The young emperor's bright and gentle face, with a kind and friendly smile, became clearer in everyone's eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work, my Lords. That day, it was actually Su Niang who got poisoned before me. Thanks to my cousin, he immediately noticed that there was something wrong with the food. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I could only come up with this method. I am sorry to trouble Lord Yu."

The words were spoken softly and warmly, with the humility unique to those in a higher position. They simply ignored the hardships that others had gone through, leaving only the compassion of the superior.

If you act aggressively at this moment, you will be seen as an ungrateful and stupid person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

Although it was said for Yu Qiansi to hear, it was also meant to comfort everyone.

It was a rare opportunity for the court officials to see their young emperor at such a close distance, and they couldn't help but sigh that the timid boy who was once wrapped in the cold and huge throne now had some of the bearing of an emperor without Wang Song's obstruction.

Yu Qiansi's eyebrows were curved, and her eyes became colder.

The poison in the young master's body was too strong, causing him great suffering, but because of this, he was often able to resist the invasion of other poisons. When she heard that the young master was poisoned, she felt that something was wrong.

It turns out that the young master was also held hostage.

Jiang Jiqing must have learned about the antidote from the imperial physician at that time and realized that there might be a trap.

But as much as he wanted to save Su Niang, he didn't trust himself to risk his life for the emperor's order.

He announced to the public that the young master was poisoned in order to force himself to get involved and get the antidote for Su Niang.

Jiang Jiqing's face was bright and clear, while Wang Song's face was calm and peaceful. They looked at each other, and Wang Song looked away indifferently.

That night, the poisonous imperial meal was discovered and he disagreed with the plan.

"Your Majesty should be aware of Ah Si's temper. If she finds out that Your Majesty is using me to contain her, she will not let it go."

But Jiang Jiqing didn't want to gamble.

He squandered Yu Qiansi's kindness and pity for him. He didn't dare to gamble whether Yu Luosha was still willing to risk her life for Su Niang.

After all, Su Niang was just a poor girl without a title.

But he wanted Su Niang to live.

Jiang Jiqing lowered his head to look at the palace lantern in his hand, but the darkness in his eyes could not be illuminated by the candlelight.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Yu. Now that the whole story is clear, we can hand over those members of the Lan family who are plotting rebellion to the Imperial Guards."

Before the guards approached, Lan Shu pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, scaring the courtiers on the wooden bridge and making them retreat, almost pushing people off the bridge. Lan Shu held the dagger across his neck without hesitation: "Your Majesty, I finally see you. But you have to think clearly, the Lan family does not have prisoners. If I die, you will not know anything."

His voice lacked some strength due to long-term loss of energy and blood. The voice he lowered deliberately was almost drowned out by the courtiers who were pulling each other on the edge of the wooden bridge, but every word still fell into Yu Qiansi's ears.

Yu Qiansi stood in the shadow of the river bank, quietly looking at the silence amid the hustle and bustle on the wooden bridge.

Sure enough, there are some unspeakable secrets between the Lan family and the Di family.

Lan Shu stared fiercely at the emperor who was so close to him. The palace lantern in his hand made him look exceptionally bright. Even though he was so close, he couldn't see what the emperor who held all their lives in his hands looked like.

The edge of the bright light moved slowly with Jiang Jiqing's breathing, making him feel as if he was staring at a candle flame. His eyes felt sore and he almost cried.

"Lan Shu, why are you doing this?" Jiang Ji's voice became cold and hesitant.

Lan Shu imagined the emperor's face behind the voice and said, "This matter was planned by Lan Shu alone. It has nothing to do with my Lan family. I beg Your Majesty to let them go and give them what they deserve as agreed. When they are all safe, I will explain everything."

Seeing that Jiang Jiqing was wavering and seemed to be about to agree to Lanshu's request, Yu Qiansi interrupted him loudly.

"Wait, this matter is not over yet."

Yaoguang brought the man with a black cloth covering his head forward. Yu Qiansi lifted the black cloth on his head and it was Tongdu.

"This person is Wu Yawei, the Chief of the Criminal Department. He is dissatisfied with my friendship with the Duke of Qi's Mansion and thinks that I will be disloyal to Your Majesty. Therefore, he colluded with the Lan family and set a trap. He wants to capture me and then appear before Your Majesty as a witness with forged evidence, blaming me for everything that happened in the imperial mausoleum. I wonder how Your Majesty plans to deal with me?"

No one present expected that Yu Qiansi would point out what everyone was thinking so directly, and he looked like he had a clear conscience, which made it impossible for everyone to avoid him.

This conspiracy is really admirable.

After Yu Qiansi's loud shout, everyone's attention was focused on the person with his hands tied.

Dasheng requires all five certifications to be complete. If witnesses are needed, what witnesses can be more reliable than someone from the Criminal Department publicly identifying her?
So Yu Qiansi had already thought that there must be a traitor in the bamboo forest.

When they were ambushed, they were certain that the traitor was between Suanzhuo and Tongdu.

At that time, Xinyan was released as promised, so she thought that something went wrong with Suanzhuo. Unexpectedly, Tongdu used the excuse that he was good at tracking and more suitable for forging traces to divert pursuers, and exchanged tasks with Suanzhuo.

Not long after Suan Zhuo left, he was hunted down.

Although he was taciturn, he was not stupid. Only the three of them knew about the plan, and now something went wrong, so there must be something wrong with Tongdu.

But the mission came first. If the reinforcements did not arrive, he and Lord Yu would be trapped. He could only hope to lure more people away and buy more time for Lord Yu.

Fortunately, they arrived in time, otherwise Lord Yu
Thinking of this, Suan Zhuo looked at Tong Du, still feeling a lingering fear.

Tongdu looked calm at this moment. He knew why Yu Qiansi did this.

In the dark warehouse, he looked at the fire outside the window and self-righteously dissuaded Yu Qiansi from surrendering.

"The people I brought with me don't want to harm your life, but they just need you to go with them. You should rest assured that I will take care of the criminal department."

"Sir, I admire you, and I believe that everyone in Wuyawei does the same. But the Ministry of Justice should be loyal to His Majesty, not the Duke of Qi's Mansion. If you are gone for a day, the Ministry of Justice may turn its sword against His Majesty. For His Majesty, I have to do this."

"Sir, I promise you that as long as you leave with them and hand over the Ministry of Justice to me, I can protect the Duke of Qi's Mansion and the young master." (End of this chapter)
