Chapter 875: For Revenge
When Chunyu entered the palace and turned off the lights, she was a little surprised to see the emperor sleeping on the Arhat bed.

But it soon occurred to him that the emperor was probably afraid of touching his empress's injuries, so he slept alone on this Arhat bed.

After leaving the palace, he told Dongxue, who was standing outside, about the emperor's thoughtfulness.

On the emperor's first morning court after returning to Kyoto, all the civil and military officials came very early, and Taifu Yun also came in official uniform.

He didn't want to be absent from the court during the critical period when the demon concubine and the prince had just returned to the palace, so he came shamelessly and planned to beg the emperor to take back his life during the morning court.

You can fine him a higher salary, but don't let him sit back at home and think about his mistakes and do nothing.

As soon as the palace door opened, the ministers entered the palace one after another.

Taifu Yun followed the Prime Minister, and just as he was about to walk in, he was stopped by the guard guarding the palace gate.

"Taifu Yun, you can't go in."

Taifu Yun, who was stopped, stared with cloudy eyes, but felt extremely embarrassed. He knew why he couldn't go in, but he still said angrily, "Why can't I go in?"

The guard looked at him with neither humility nor arrogance and said: "The emperor has specifically ordered that starting from today, Master Yun will not be allowed to enter the palace for three months. Please also ask Master not to disobey the holy order and make it difficult for me to wait."

Taifu Yun was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. He didn't expect that the emperor had specifically ordered the guards guarding the palace gate.

"I just said that I remember that the emperor asked Taifu to stay at home and think about the past three months. When I saw Taifu in the morning, he thought that my memory was confused."

"That's because your memory is confused. It's obvious that Master Taifu has lost his memory."

"It seems that as this person is getting older, he is not only prone to confusion, but also prone to amnesia."

Some officials walked toward the palace, mocking and laughing at Taifu Yun.

Taifu Yun was so angry that he blew his beard and stared. He really couldn't bear to listen to these mocking words, so he turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

As soon as he went to court, he first discussed some important state affairs with the court officials, and then Feng Chenghan asked the Ministry of Justice if the identity of the assassin had been found out.

The Minister of Justice in charge of the case stood up holding a jade slip.

"Back to the emperor, the identity of the assassin has been found out. He is a prostitute from Li Chun Courtyard whose real name is Mudan. Her real name is Zhao Lingyuan. Her father is the second daughter of Zhao Yushi when the late emperor was in power."

Zhao Yushi?
Many ministers tilted their heads and thought for a moment, and soon remembered who this Yushi Zhao was.

This Censor Zhao was an upright Censor who dared to impeach powerful people in the court.

About ten years ago, Yushi Zhao impeached Prime Minister Leng in the court.

Impeach him for forming a party for personal gain and sacrificing human life to eliminate dissidents

But at that time, the late emperor trusted Leng Xiang very much and did not punish Leng Xiang because of Zhao Yushi's impeachment.

However, someone also investigated the charges against Zhao Yushi for impeaching the cold prime minister, but found out that Zhao Yushi had made a false accusation. Instead, they also found evidence that Zhao Yushi accepted bribes and disregarded human lives.

Zhao Yushi didn't know whether he was threatened or not, so he quickly confessed.

The late emperor was furious and dismissed him from his post and ransacked his home. He and the men in his family were exiled for three thousand miles as slaves, and all the women in his family were worked as official prostitutes.

At that time, many people said that Yushi Zhao was really framed, because he impeached Leng Tianming and offended him, so he suffered such revenge.

Since the assassin was Zhao Yushi's daughter, she assassinated Concubine Leng for revenge.

Thinking of this, many courtiers felt very sad.The daughter of Zhao Yushi was also a poor person. She was a good daughter, but because her father offended someone and her family was destroyed, she fell into prostitution at a young age.

She would hate Concubine Leng, and there was nothing wrong with her wanting to take revenge.

But it was not Concubine Leng's fault that their family became like that. It was all the fault of Leng Xiang. Leng Xiang just regarded Concubine Leng's daughter as a chess piece.

Therefore, Concubine Leng's blow was really unjust.

Fengcheng Hanjian frowned. He also remembered Zhao Yushi. When Zhao Yushi had his home confiscated and was exiled, he thought he was harmed by Bie Leng Tianming.

Therefore, after Leng Tianming was eradicated, he also tried to reverse Zhao Yushi's case.

Check it out, man.

On the surface, this Yushi Zhao is an upright and unafraid of power, but secretly he is very masculine. He is very masculine, but he should not be done. He should not be in Zhuangzi outside the city. They raise prostitutes here.

Many of those prostitutes were not bought by him, but stolen by others. He did not know how many children were carried out of his farm.

It was because Leng Tianming caught him that he admitted that he had made a false accusation, that he had accepted bribes, and that he had taken human lives lightly.

The charge of disregarding human life was not unfair to him at all.

"Zhao Lingyuan is 23 years old and has been working as an official prostitute in Lichun Court for these years. She also has a younger sister named Zhao Yuhe. She just turned fifteen this year. She is studying in the Xunfang Hall. She only waited for her hairpin to appear on the stage. Ten days ago, she was taken away by a foreigner. The merchant redeemed himself and left the Xunfang Pavilion."

Ten days before Zhao Lingyuan's assassination, her only sister was ransomed and left the Xunfang Pavilion. This was obviously unusual.

"According to Li Chun Yuan's mother, more than ten days ago, a wealthy customer fell ill after ordering for several days in a row. At Li Chun Yuan, she only accepted the traffickers and lackeys as his companions."

"Who is that wealthy guest?" Feng Chenghan asked quickly.

The Minister of Justice said: "According to the mother of Li Chun Yuan, the accent of the wealthy guest sounds like someone from Kyoto, but because he wears a cloak every time he comes here, covering his face, they don't know what he looks like. Whose last name is it?"

Feng Chenghan frowned and said: "This should be the person who instigated Zhao Lingyuan to assassinate Concubine Leng. Her condition may be to help her sister redeem herself, or the person who instigated her used her sister to threaten her. "

The Minister of Justice nodded, and he also concluded this.

"Then Zhao Sheng is a beast. He will be blamed for having his house confiscated and his wife and children will be harmed. If Zhao Lingyuan wants revenge, she should go find her father, Zhao Yushi." Feng Chenghan said in a cold voice. The meaning of ridicule.

Many ministers looked at each other in confusion. Why did the emperor say that Yu Shi Zhao was the one who caused harm to him because of his coldness?

Could it be that because he loves Concubine Leng so much, he loves Wujiwu and protects Leng Tianming, a treacherous person?

Thinking of this, the expressions of many ministers changed, and they began to waver whether they would object to the emperor appointing Concubine Leng as his queen in the future.

Leng Tianming is Leng Tianming, and Concubine Leng is Concubine Leng. Concubine Leng is devoted to the people, and even more to the emperor.

So they don't mind now. As Leng Tianming's daughter, they have no objection to the emperor appointing her as queen.

But if the emperor started to defend Leng Tianming, the traitor, and help him clear his name because of her, then they wouldn't be able to accept it.

Wouldn't this make the emperor a coward?
Yu Wei noticed the changes in the expressions of these ministers and stood up and said: "Your Majesty is absolutely right. That Yushi Zhao stole children to feed molesters, destroyed children's lives, and took human lives lightly. He really brought the blame on himself."

Ten thousand times for such a person would not be enough. Just confiscating their homes and exile them, that would be light.
