Daughter of aristocratic family

After more than half a month of investigation, the assassination at Cining Palace gradually became clear.

It turned out that the group of assassins were sent by Tiele Kingdom, and their goal was very clear, which was to assassinate the emperor.

This group of assassins entered Beijing at the beginning of the year and hid in the city for many days.

The commander of the Feng Ji Army was guilty of negligence. Fortunately, he was not involved in much in this matter. He was only fined and not removed from office.

Although the commander of the Jinwu Guards was also guilty of negligence, the Jinwu Guards failed to find out how the assassin passed the various inspections and brought the weapons into the palace. Therefore, his crime was more serious and he was demoted.

Lord Wu of Taichang Temple, who agreed to allow the opera troupe to perform in the palace, was dismissed from his post according to the emperor's wishes and handed over to Dali Temple for trial.

But Yun Hao handed over the evidence of Weiyuan Hou's crime, "According to Mr. Wu, Weiyuan Hou knew that he had these evidences, so he colluded with the assassins of Tiele Kingdom to assassinate His Majesty and achieve the purpose of framing him. ."

The emperor looked through the evidence and looked extremely ugly, "Are these all confirmed?"

"The embezzlement of military pay, the sale of military rations, and the indignity of human lives have been verified. The murder of generals, false claims of military exploits, and smuggling with the enemy's country have not yet been investigated." Yun Hao has actually verified everything.

But in such a short time, if he found out everything, the emperor would doubt him.

Even though Long Tingwei has a superior status, he is only a third-rank official after all, and Weiyuan Marquis is a first-rank official. Without the emperor's will, he jumped over the rank to investigate Weiyuan Marquis, which is suspected of committing the following crimes.

Even if he checked Weiyuan Hou before getting the emperor's permission, he would not admit it at this time.

"Corrupting military pay, selling military rations, and taking human lives?" The emperor held the confessions and said with a livid face, "The horse adze deserves to die."

"Marquis Weiyuan cannot accomplish these things alone. It's just that the time is too short. I haven't found out his accomplices yet. Please give me more time."

"I will give you three months, and you must get to the bottom of it." The emperor ordered.

"I will do my best to live up to His Majesty's trust." Yun Hao said in a deep voice.

The emperor nodded, "You have always done things safely, I am very relieved."

"In addition, I heard that Marquis Weiyuan murdered generals and falsely claimed military exploits. I hope your majesty will investigate." Yun Hao dropped this bombshell at the right time.

The emperor's face turned even more ugly, "This matter is important, you must act carefully and don't alert the enemy."

"I understand and must act with caution." Yun Hao replied.

"You must find out the truth as soon as possible."

"I will live up to your majesty's trust and find out the truth." Yun Hao saluted, "I will retire."

After coming out of the palace, Yun Hao hurried back to Longtingwei and found Zhou Hao and others to discuss the next countermeasures.

"Sir, why don't we just go and ransack Weiyuan Hou's home, so that we can find his accomplices." Zhou Mao suggested.

Yun Hao shook his head: "Doing this will only alert the enemy."

"If we can't arrest people, we can only investigate in secret." Zhou Mao said.

Yun Hao nodded in agreement: "Investigate secretly. Once conclusive evidence is found, arrest immediately."

He looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Weiyuan is very powerful in the court, and he must have many accomplices. You must be careful not to let them notice our actions."

"Don't worry, sir, I will act with caution." Zhou Hao and others said hurriedly.

They all know the seriousness of this case. If it is not handled properly, not only Yun Hao's career will be affected, but even the entire Longtingwei will be implicated.

While Yun Hao was busy investigating the case, Zhao Wangshu couldn't beat Yao Shanzhi, so he went to Dr. Shen's place to get medicine according to the prescription and the prescription powder.

Grind Chinese herbal medicines such as Atractylodes rhizome, Magnolia officinalis, tangerine peel, Pinellia pinellia, and Caoguo into powder, mix with appropriate amount of rice wine, and then stir-fry over slow fire until slightly yellow.

Zhao Wangshu took the Tongqiao powder and went to Yao Mansion to find Yao Shanzhi and handed the medicine to her, "Here's the medicine for you."

Yao Shanzhi took the medicine and smiled happily: "Yueer, just wait, I will vent your anger."

"You don't know how to hold a banquet and invite her to give her medicine?" Zhao Wangshu asked with a frown.

"I'm not that stupid." Yao Shanzhi chuckled, "Mrs. Ma will have a birthday party tomorrow. If something happens to her at home, she can't blame anyone." "It's indeed a good time." Zhao Wangshu doesn't mind letting Ma Qiaoqiao at all. Shame on you.

The next day, Weiyuan Hou Mansion was packed with guests, and Yao Shanzhi went to the banquet with his mother, Princess Pingyang.

When Yao Shanzhi saw Ma Qiaoqiao, she looked calm, and she didn't feel guilty at all about wanting someone to drug Ma Qiaoqiao.

Although Ma Qiaoqiao is willful, she is still very knowledgeable about formal occasions. She enthusiastically led Yao Shanzhi into the garden and said, "Your Majesty, you can do whatever you want."

"You go greet others and don't worry about me." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

"Excuse me." Ma Qiaoqiao bowed.

Yao Shanzhi sat in the garden, chatting with other girls.

At noon, the birthday banquet officially begins.

The dessert was a bird's nest cup. Soon after Ma Qiaoqiao drank it, her stomach began to rumble, and then a strange smell gradually filled the air.

"Oh, what does this smell like?" someone shouted, covering his nose.

"It stinks!" complained another.

Yao Shanzhi had already covered her mouth and nose, and the silk handkerchief blocked the slightly raised corners of her lips. The effect of this allergy powder was really good.

Ma Qiaoqiao felt extremely embarrassed. She really wanted to hold back from farting, but there seemed to be a rush of air in her stomach, and then she made fart noises one after another.

The fart sound was loud and persistent, and the girls at the table heard and smelled it.

"It's so rude to fart so much in front of a large audience." The look in Ma Qiaoqiao's eyes was full of disdain.

"That's right, it's too indecent." Someone echoed.

Ma Qiaoqiao felt her face turn red. She lowered her head, hoping that no one would notice her.

However, the fart sounds came one after another and seemed to never stop.

She is the master, and no one who ignores her will ignore her.

"Sorry, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I'll be right back." Ma Qiaoqiao left the table in a hurry.

As soon as she left, the words of the girls at the table became even worse.

"I don't know what I ate and farted so much."

"How uneducated."

"gross."

"If I were her, I would find a crack in the ground and crawl in."

It was just such a small thing as farting, but it made them scold Ma Qiaoqiao from head to toe.

Yao Shanzhi, the instigator, still took the blame, "This is the first time I have seen someone who farts like this. The stench is so strong that I have lost my appetite."

"It's so disgusting that she's like this. It's better to have less contact with her in the future." Someone suggested.

Under Yao Shanzhi's deliberate guidance, Ma Qiaoqiao's image plummeted in everyone's hearts.

Ma Qiaoqiao hid in the clean room, feeling ashamed and angry.

She couldn't figure out why she kept farting?
As the host, she could not leave the banquet for too long, so she could only endure the discomfort and return to the banquet.

Her appearance did not alleviate everyone's embarrassment, but made the girls look at her strangely.

Ma Qiaoqiao felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, like thorns piercing her back.
