The Poisonous Wife: Cute Baby Comes to Rebirth with Me

Deep in the magnificent imperial palace, a battle between loyalty and betrayal quietly unfolds.

Yi Han, the young general who was highly regarded by the Empress Dowager, knew that this trip was not for personal gain, but to maintain the dignity and peace of the royal family.

He was well aware of the teachings of the Empress Dowager and acted cautiously, not wanting to cause unnecessary disputes.

In the Osmanthus Hall...

“We don’t need to seek benefits from this matter. We just need to fulfill our duties and win recognition with real achievements.”

Yi Han's words revealed firmness and decisiveness.

He assured Yun Xi that he would not lose sight of long-term considerations for the sake of short-term glory.

Yun Xi smiled and nodded, her eyes full of trust and satisfaction.

She knew Yi Han well, and understood his loyalty and responsibility.

During the time she spent with Yi Han, she really liked him and always had a throbbing feeling in her heart, which was something Zhao Songyan didn't have in her previous life.

She patted Yi Han's shoulder gently and said, "Are you ready? It's time to go to the palace to meet the emperor."

Yi Han stood up, straightened his robe, and said with a firm look: "I'm ready, you can take me to the door."

Yun Xi nodded in agreement. She accompanied Yi Han out of the mansion, holding hands. Yun Xi stood at the door and watched his back as he walked away.

In the imperial study, the emperor was preparing to enjoy dinner, but when he heard that Yi Han had something important to report, he temporarily put the idea of ​​eating on hold.

Yi Han presented letter after letter to the emperor, who read them one by one, his expression becoming increasingly solemn.

"These letters...are actually evidence of crimes committed by important officials in the court!" The emperor raised his head in shock, staring at Yi Han with a sharp gaze, "Where did these evidences come from?" Yi Han replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, these evidences were provided by Concubine Liu. She suddenly found me today and gave me these letters, asking me to pass them on to Your Majesty."

The emperor pondered for a moment and sneered, "Liu Prajna is smart. She originally planned to hand over the evidence to me after entering the palace in order to seek a higher position. But because the Empress Dowager was unwell, her entry into the palace was delayed, so she had to hand over the evidence to me through you."

Yi Han lowered his head and said nothing, but in his heart he admired the emperor's analysis.

He was well aware of Liu Prajna's methods and schemes, but at this moment he had to admire the emperor's insight.

"Although Liu Prajna has made great contributions, she is also very scheming and it is difficult to judge whether she is loyal or not."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "I originally intended to give her a generous reward, but she recommended herself to the palace, which made me doubt her loyalty. If it weren't for Liu Lanshi, I would never approve her request."

Yi Han's heart trembled, he understood the meaning of the emperor's words.

He asked in a low voice: "How does the emperor plan to deal with these criminals?"

The emperor slammed the table and said sternly: "These people intend to overthrow Daqing and bring disaster to the people. How can we let them off easily? If we don't kill one to warn the rest, how can we convince the people? If such crimes can be exempted from the death penalty, won't there be endless betrayals in the future?"

Yi Han nodded in agreement.

He knew that the emperor's decision was wise and necessary. He bowed and said, "I obey your order."

The emperor pondered for a moment and continued, "Let's keep this matter secret for now. I will report it to the Empress Dowager in person." Yi Han bowed again in response.

At this moment, the emperor suddenly looked up and said, "Call Xiao Yunfeng!" Yi Han knew that the emperor was going to draft an edict. He was startled, but he could only wait respectfully. (End of this chapter)
