The pretty mistress of Hou Ye's family

Chapter 75 Someone Behind
"Call me—"

With an order, countless eunuchs and guards knelt on the ground and waited on them with sticks.

Ye Zi knelt on the side in fear, trembling, not daring to move.

What should I do now?This Mrs. Hou didn't play cards according to common sense at all, and with General Song protecting her, she couldn't be touched, couldn't be pushed away, and she still put on a posture of desperately fighting with others.

Desperately?Who dares?

She would definitely not be able to fight them if she tried her best, but in the end, Madam Hou had an accident, who of them could run away?

"Eunuch Hong is here!"

There was a call at the door, and everyone turned their eyes to the prison door.

Eunuch Hong hurried over and saw Yao Yao sitting in a chair with an angry expression on his face, he hurried forward and whispered, "Madam how is it?"

"Cough cough cough..." Yao Yao coughed directly to him.

It's okay to be uneasy, it's angry!
Eunuch Hong looked down at the eunuchs and guards who were beaten on the ground, and General Song was standing beside him. He hurriedly said, "Madam calm down, it seems that no one was killed. Let's deal with it in a low-key manner."

Yao Yao took a few breaths before saying, "Then Eunuch Hong will uphold justice for me. Don't make too much trouble. If you make trouble in front of the emperor, my Lord Hou will also be ashamed."

Eunuch Hong nodded frantically, "Madam is still sensible! Let him go."

Yao Yao beckoned, "Mengtao, give Eunuch Hong a seat."

"Yes."

Eunuch Hong was given enough face, and smiled kindly, "Come on, tell me what's going on first?"

Eunuch Ying was supported to stand up, clutching his buttocks and muttering, "It's this girl who saw Zhao Wan, Madam Hou's maidservant, and pushed Lin Xia into the water to die. His child, that is the heir of the emperor. Naturally, such a murderer will be punished! Did I punish him wrongly?"

Eunuch Hong narrowed his eyes and said, "Aside from this girl as a witness, are there any other witnesses?"

"Uh...no, no more."

"Heh—" Yao Yao sneered, "Listen. Listen."

Eunuch Hong hurriedly apologized, "Madam calm down. I'll ask again."

"Ah."

Eunuch Hong stared at Ye Zi and asked, "Are you sure you didn't look at the eyes? Was it Zhao Wan who pushed the deceased into the water?"

"Yes! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Eunuch Hong looked sideways at Zhao Wan and asked, "Did you push someone into the water?"

"I didn't!" Zhao Wan said weakly, "I didn't do it at all."

Eunuch Hong nodded, "Come on, Eunuch Ying, you come and answer, the two maidservants will say the same thing, who do you believe?"

Eunuch Ying looked at him in embarrassment, "Uh...of course..."

"Natural what? Where did you get natural?"

"..."

"It's really your fault to use one person for one reason, and use the sentence without evidence. It's really your fault. The head of the Punishment Department should be dereliction of duty."

Eunuch Ying hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, "I'm sorry, Eunuch Hong, the slave made a mistake. The slave again..."

Yao Yao snorted, "I don't accept your apology, you have to be punished if you should be punished. People who mismanage you will definitely have more resentment under your hands. Eunuch Hong, girl Zhao Wan, I won't let you out of the cell , After you return her innocence, I will pick her up again, but these people should be punished, they must be punished."

Eunuch Hong nodded hurriedly, "Everyone will be demoted to one level, and Eunuch Ying will be demoted to work in the Clothes Bureau."

Eunuch Ying stared, "Eunuch, you can't! I... I, I, I..."

"What? Do you need me to ask the emperor for instructions on such a trivial matter before I can deal with you?"

Eunuch Ying tore away the guard's support, ran to Eunuch Hong and whispered a few words into Eunuch Hong's ear.

After hearing this, Eunuch Hong frowned.

Yao Yao squinted at the two of them, waiting patiently for them to finish whispering.

She knew in her heart that these dog slaves didn't dare to provoke her at all. To be able to set up such a rubbish situation, there must be strong people on top to back them up.

Eunuch Ying couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only move out of the backer to support him.

After Eunuch Hong heard the news about Eunuch Ying, he pondered for a long time, "Madam? Can I take a step to speak?"

Yao Yao got up and followed him to the corner.

Eunuch Hong bent over and said in a low voice, "I heard from Eunuch Ying that this matter is related to the second imperial concubine."

Yao Yao was slightly taken aback, "What did you say?"

"He said that the second imperial concubine ordered them to do this. If you want to investigate carefully, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it."

Yao Yao shook her head, "Impossible, my third sister would not do such a foolish thing. Cough cough cough..."

Eunuch Hong persuaded in a low voice, "Madam? Why don't you just go ahead and find someone to bury the dead ghost directly. That's the end of the matter?"

"No!" Yao Yao said with an angry expression, "I need to investigate this matter thoroughly. If my third sister did not do it, then these people not only slandered my maidservant, but also my third sister, which is even more sinful. "

"But this..."

"Eunuch Hong, don't worry, I will never cause you trouble. I will discuss with Lord Hou how to deal with the matter after I figure it out."

Eunuch Hong nodded, "Madam handles things in her own way, and the servant is very relieved. Then let Madam arrange."

Turning around, Yao Yao walked back to the crowd and ordered, "Lock up everyone and trouble General Song to send someone to monitor for a few days."

Song Ci nodded, "Yes."

Yao Yao looked at Zhao Wan who was almost in a coma, feeling extremely distressed, and told Song Ci again, "Take care of her for me, I'll call the imperial doctor."

Song Ci nodded again, "Okay."

The rioters were criticized and imprisoned, and Zhao Wan was not released from the prison. The only difference was that her cell was furnished extremely luxuriously, with quilts, a stove, a tea table, and there were imperial doctors and maids serving her.

"Cough cough cough..."

When Yao Yao returned to the palace, she happened to bump into Qin Yilan coming out, looking very anxious.

As soon as they bumped into each other, Yao Yao saw Qin Yilan's expression change instantly, from anxious to stable.

This subtle change made her doubt again.Does he know that the woman standing in front of him is her?
"Master Hou."

Qin Yilan hurriedly said, "Are you back? How are things going?"

Yao Yao went up to meet him and held his hand. She stuffed the cold little hand into his palm, and the warm, numb feeling spread all over her body.

Why does she always feel extra safe around this man.

She gently snuggled into his arms, "Everyone has been locked up. Including the head of the Punishment Division. Thanks to General Song for his help."

Qin Yilan asked softly, "Song Ci?"

"Ah."

"It's a man. Don't forget me to promote him."

Qin Yilan put her arms around the woman, but felt that something was wrong with her, and she always felt that her thoughts were as deep as a sea, "Do you have any questions to talk to me about?"

"Master Hou, can I...can I ask Master Hou for a favor?"

Qin Yilan laughed softly, "If you have something to say, just say it, what's wrong with me?"

"Master Hou invited my third sister over here. I have something to talk to her about."

"Okay. Let's go into the house and warm up."

Yao Yao was holding a hand stove in her hand, with a sad expression on her face.

When Yao Yu was invited over, she had already heard what had happened, and stepped into the room anxiously, with a slightly flustered expression, "Elder Sister."

Yao Yao called, "Close the door."

When Meng Tao goes out, close the door.
