The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 165: Extermination of the Nine Clans
Su Peisheng looked at Yinzhen's expression and his heart was beating fast. He followed Yinzhen's gaze and his legs went weak again.

The eunuch in front of him might be a fake eunuch! I am afraid that my head will be implicated and fall to the ground!

Yinzhen looked at the chief guard who was escorting the eunuch.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

The Dalek knelt on one knee and bowed in reply.

"Your Majesty, I am the Dalek from the third squad on duty today. I was leading a patrol a while ago when I passed by an empty tent and heard a woman screaming. I recognized the direction and rushed over. I found that Concubine Hua had tied up the eunuch with a whip and her maid fainted on the ground. I had someone take the eunuch down, but I was afraid that he would commit suicide, so I blocked his mouth."

Yinzhen waved his hands. Nian Shilan was not exaggerating, but she actually knew how to use a whip? This was something Yinzhen had not expected.

Fortunately, she knew how to use a soft whip, so she was not hurt by this slave today.

Xiao Linzi suddenly shouted outside the tent.

"Your Majesty, I, the eunuch Xiao Linzi from the Yikun Palace, request to see you!"

Yinzhen signaled Su Peisheng to pass the message. Just as Su Peisheng said "the emperor has summoned you", Xiao Linzi kicked in a man who was tied up.

Xiao Linzi kicked the man in front of Yinzhen like kicking a cuju, then he knelt down and pointed at the eunuch who was being escorted by the guards.

"Your Majesty, I noticed that the eunuch invited our queen in a strange way, so I became more cautious and went to the big tent to investigate. I didn't expect that I really discovered the trick. This guy hid in the corner of the tent, sneaking around, and tried to run away when our queen captured the eunuch, so I caught him!"

The man who was tied up on the ground had nothing stuffed in his mouth. When he saw the emperor, he was so scared that he was trembling and couldn't say a word.

Suddenly, a strong smell of urine spread out, and everyone looked closely and found that the man had peed himself out of fear. In such a situation, the man felt ashamed and regretful, and his eyes went dark and he passed out.

Yinzhen was extremely disgusted, and Xiao Linzi stepped forward and slapped the man several times, and the man slowly woke up.

Ulanara said.

"The Concubine Hua has slandered me, Your Majesty. How should you deal with me? I am the Empress of the Qing Dynasty. How could I do anything to harm a concubine?"

Nian Shilan was not willing to be outdone.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me! My servants all heard that when this servant came to invite me, he said it was the Queen's order!"

Ulanara scolded.

"How dare you! I don't even know him, how can I order him to do anything!"

Nian Shilan was about to say something when Yinzhen spoke.

"That's enough. I just want to hear you guys quarreling. Let this slave speak for himself."

Dalek obeyed the order and took the handkerchief out of the eunuch's mouth, and removed his jaw at the same time, so that he could not bite his tongue to commit suicide. Even if his jaw was put back, he would not have the strength to bite his tongue in a short time.

Yinzhen glanced at Dalek and thought that this servant was capable of doing things.

Dalek bowed.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was afraid that he would bite his tongue to commit suicide, so I removed his jaw. Whether to put it back or not, I still need your word."

Yinzhen waved his hand, and Dalek immediately replaced the eunuch's chin.

But the eunuch tried biting his tongue, but it turned out to be of no use.

"Don't do useless things. If you tell the truth today, I will spare your life. If you refuse to tell the truth even after you die, I will exterminate your entire clan, which will be an explanation to the people of the world. Who told you to hurt my concubine?"

The eunuch didn't speak for a long time, and Xiao Linzi was so eager to slap him in the face, Yinzhen said.

"Forget it. No matter who sent you, Su Peisheng, drag the two of them down and give them eighty lashes, but keep them alive. Find out their origins, and kill their clansmen one by one in front of them. Let them watch with their own eyes. I'm tired. That's all."

Su Peisheng agreed, and Dalek immediately started to drag the eunuch. The one who was tied up beside him couldn't hold on any longer. "Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! I'll tell you! It doesn't matter if he doesn't tell you, I'll tell you everything!"

Nian Shilan caught the key words in the man's words, "common people?" Could it be that it was so easy for people to sneak into the palace now?
Yinzhen's face, which usually showed no emotion, was now as black as the bottom of a pot. Haha, as the emperor, he was like sitting on the edge of a cliff, and anyone could get close to him.

"explain."

Yinzhen almost squeezed out the words from between his teeth.

The man was dragged by Dalek and forced to kneel.

"My name is Wang Liushiwu, and I'm a neighbor of He Xufeng. He Xufeng gave me three hundred taels of silver, saying he would take me to a good place and find a beautiful girl. I'm already thirty-five, and my family is too poor to find a wife. Now I've got three hundred taels of silver and a beautiful girl, so I won't have to worry about the rest of my life!"

Having said this, the man spat at the eunuch hatefully again.

Everyone present knew that the eunuch's name was He Xufeng.

Su Peisheng scolded.

"Rude! How can you be so rude in front of the Emperor!"

Wang Liushiwu shrank his neck and continued.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was He Xufeng who caused me to get into this disaster! When he brought me to the foot of the mountain, I knew it was the royal family's property and I didn't dare to come. He lied to me and said that nothing was wrong and that the current emperor was benevolent. Anyway, I was brought here by him without knowing what was going on. Then He Xufeng led me to the tent and said that a beautiful girl would be here soon and told me to do whatever I wanted."

Xiao Linzi couldn't bear it any longer and grabbed Wang Liushiwu's collar and started to beat him left and right.

Yinzhen waited until he had had enough of the beating before he turned gloomy.

"Tie up this filthy thing and gag it."

Then he looked at the eunuch named He Xufeng.

"You're going to tell me or not?"

He Xufeng lowered his head and stiffened his neck.

"I was caught. It was all my idea. I have nothing to say."

Nian Shilan found the voice very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it, Yinzhen said.

"Just tell me, who ordered you to do this?"

Ulanara also said.

"You slave, I don't even know you, how dare you slander me for asking you to invite Concubine Hua!"

He Xufeng looked around at the people around him, but the person he wanted to see was not there. He thought that maybe her status was not high enough to stand here. He just hated that he could not clear the obstacles for her.

Suddenly someone rushed in from outside the door. It was Yunli.

"Greetings, my Royal Brother. May your Royal Brother be safe and sound. I know who he is!"

Yinzhen looked at his seventeenth brother who was like a little adult in front of him, pressed his temples and said helplessly.

"There's nothing for you to do here, Seventeen. Go out and have fun. Don't make your mother worry."

Yunli protested in dissatisfaction.

"My brother, you look down on me! I am almost ten years old! I recognize this voice! I also know that the one he is interacting with is one of my brother's concubines!"

A picture suddenly flashed through Nian Shilan's mind. Yes, she had indeed heard this voice!
On the night of the Mid-Autumn family dinner!
