The Enchanting Emperor

"Your Majesty, imperial guards has something to report." The imperial guards that belonged to the crown prince a few years ago had already replaced the people that Constitutional Zong had left behind.

It was as natural as the succession of dynasties when the court was filled with the sons of heaven and the ministers of the court.

"Call me in."

Even though the imperial guards was dominated by men, it was not as if there were not a single woman present in the imperial guards. The person who reported the news to the Emperor was a woman.

From the very beginning, Emperor Yongle had realized that if there were only men in imperial guards, not only would they not be successful in handling affairs in the country, they would also not be able to make the Emperor feel at ease. So imperial guards started to recruit women, but the number of women was still small.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this servant has discovered something."

Even now, the Emperor still did not believe in the Queen. The surveillance of the Kunning Palace had never been cancelled, but had continued for a long time. Zhu Youtang believed in his intuition that the Empress really had a problem.

Although she was not clear about the empress's problem, the empress's surroundings were still surrounded by five imperial guards. She would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go.

The reason why the empress still had not consummated her marriage was partly because the crown prince was unwilling to do so. Furthermore, the late emperor had just died, so no matter what, the late emperor had to pay respects to the late emperor. Since he was being filial, he had to be wary of something like Dunlun.

The reason that caused the Emperor to suspect the Empress was still this matter. Although the woman was shy, but even if the empress didn't have any feelings for her. However, as a wife, the Emperor believed that if it were anyone else, they would be asking for help every day.

However, the empress's reaction was to hide from the emperor whenever she could. The way she avoided him made Zhu Youtang feel that the empress despised him.

"Tell me, what did you discover?"

"This servant discovers that the empress uses her identity more as a cover. Today, when I prepared clothes for the Empress, this servant realized that the Empress's body was different from ordinary people. "At least, there's some differences between her and mine."

"Are you sure?" Zhu Youtang believed that his imperial guards would not lie to him. However, the amount of information he had was too much. The emperor himself found it hard to digest.

The Queen's body was different from ordinary women. What did that mean? If the real empress was like this, then what was the female official doing when she checked out the consort selection? Did the late emperor know about this?

Or was this the reason why the late emperor insisted on marrying Zhang Siyan? Zhu Youtang didn't know what his unsuitable royal father was thinking.

Now that such a secret had been revealed, Zhu Youtang felt that he had a new understanding of the previous Emperor's absurdity.

"Don't spread the news of this matter, or I will get a definite piece of information from you. You need to investigate carefully, and if it is necessary to enter the Kunning Palace to probe, that is also necessary. "

The Emperor gave the imperial guards the biggest privilege, even though the Empress was a woman. But imperial guards was also a woman, so it could not be considered as an offense.

No matter if it was men or women, people in the imperial guards were always sharper than ordinary people. When Red Sleeves stepped into the Queen's bathroom, she saw the Queen's concealed body. He had already noticed the abnormality.

Although the empress's rebuke and the sound of Red Sleeve's apology sounded together, Red Sleeve still found out that the empress was not very confident. Moreover, his voice was mixed with fear and trembling. Thus, after she left, she knew that something had happened.

After receiving the emperor's reply, she felt even more compelled to work with Bai Dai to find out exactly what the empress was hiding.

Ever since the founding of the Great Ancestor, the imperial guards had always been instructed by the successive generations of emperors and princes. imperial guards's duty was not only to protect the safety of the Emperor, but more importantly, to give up his master's orders.

It was not that Zhang Siyan did not feel that the Kunning Palace had become a little nervous recently, but the Queen's abilities were still limited. So in truth, Zhang Siyan still did not understand how he should verify the suspicions in the depths of his heart.

As for the strong collaboration of Bai Pi and Hong Xiu, they finally found some clues. For example, beside the empress, there was always the Fourth Tang waiting on her. The Queen's clothes, for example, were always more conservative.

Although it wasn't a big deal for the same empress to take a bath without anyone serving her, no one else was allowed to get close to her while she was dressed. Furthermore, not that many people in Kunning Palace have actually seen something like monthly letters.

"Your servant has thoroughly investigated and found out that the Empress' schedule of work and rest has rules to follow." Your majesty, you have to personally verify what this servant isn't easy to do. Tonight is the day for the empress to bathe in herself. "

In order not to alert the enemy, imperial guards's actions in Kunning Palace were already very gentle. Thus, right now, the result was that the Emperor was required to verify the final facts of the matter.

"I understand."

Above the Nine Heavens Tower in the Imperial City, the place could overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire Shuntian Palace. However, it was not something an ordinary person could know. Such a scene was destined to be difficult to see.

The emperor is busy every day, the empress is busy. The empress dowager had now completed her mission, while the other royal relatives were busy with their own facial expressions.

"Your Majesty, Herba Euphorbiae, please wait. This servant will go and invite the Empress out right now. The emperor was busy, the emperor was busy, the emperor was busy. Thus, it was normal for the Emperor not to come to the Kunning Palace.

But now, not only did the Emperor come, he also came at this time. So it's not normal, it's not normal.

The empress had always told Mu Tang that he must find out as soon as possible when anything related to the emperor. Therefore, Mu Tang was prepared to warn the Queen, but was stopped.

"I'll go myself. You guys stay behind and don't disturb the empress."

No one dared to disobey the Emperor.

"Mu Tang? "What's wrong, I'll be fine." Zhang Siyan's bath always followed the customs of the Zhang Mansion. Mrs. Zhang had always wanted Zhang Siyan to keep the habit of bathing with his daughter, so it had always been the same for Zhang Siyan.

As a result, today's situation was as such. The emperor himself entered the bathroom, while the empress bathed in it without any preparation.

"I still don't know. So the empress is actually such a woman." "He really came back from a young home, and An was able to tell that I was a male or female?"

"Your Majesty, I am not intentionally hiding this from you. Please give me a chance to explain, Your Majesty. "

Zhang Siyan's heart was in a mess, why did the emperor just enter? The two of them were indifferent to the point that they couldn't understand what the emperor meant.

In front of the emperor, even if he didn't have this kind of habit, Zhang Siyan wouldn't be able to stand it. Now was the crime of deceiving the monarch. Zhu Youtang did not want to make the emperor feel even more annoyed with him.

"I will wait for you in the inner hall. Hopefully, you will be able to give me a satisfactory answer when the time comes."

With that, the Emperor left. Only Zhang Siyan was left standing in his original position dumbstruck.

"Your Majesty, I am not intentionally hiding this from you. But back then, the late emperor had first issued an edict, ordering the Zhang family to serve him with an edict. "Originally, I wanted to clarify this matter. However, I fear that the late Emperor will use the crime of bullying the monarch to implicate all nine clans."

If it was not the last resort, Zhang Siyan thought that he would never have the chance to interact with the Emperor in his entire life. However, things happened in such a way that caught everyone off guard.

"Your Majesty, my background has changed a bit. I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me." Zhang Siyan was afraid of death, but he was more afraid that the Emperor would anger the entire Zhang Family. Thus, he still asked for a favor and felt that this matter was more reliable.

"I am a man of my word. I will not pursue the Zhang family's actions." Now, are you at ease? "

"This is proof that I grew up with. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can go check with the Wanzhou." I think that even if twenty years had passed, there would still be people who would know that Gaillon's family is greedy to death. "

Zhang Siyan was betting. The emperor didn't believe that Zhang Siyan didn't know about this at all.

Taking out the golden jade inlaid within the secret compartment of the dressing box, opening the embroidered cloth, Zhang Siyan gave it to Zhu Youtang without a care in the world.

In the end, it was embedded with jade. Zhu Youtang could see the traces of it being used, which meant that this item was brought along by someone everyday. This was too absurd, the Gaillon family actually harmed their descendants for the sake of the title of nobility.

Regardless of which dynasty it was, it could be said to be a heinous crime. Therefore, the Emperor could not rely on Zhang Siyan's own words to believe that this was true.

"I will go and investigate. Don't go anywhere else for now." As for the Tzu Ning Palace s, we will personally go and tell them that it would be inconvenient for you to go and pay respects if you have caught a cold. "

After saying that, Zhu Youtang left with the gold jade. The emperor had a lot of things to do. Because Zhang Siyan had already been delayed, he could not afford to delay any longer.

After the emperor left, Zhang Siyan finally felt weak, and his strength suddenly weakened. Aunt, come in first. "

Seeing that the emperor had left, Zhang Siyan's wet nurse also rushed towards the inner hall. Just as he reached the door, he heard the empress calling out to his. The mama went deeper in and saw that the empress's face was pale to the point that she was sweating profusely.

"Mistress, what's wrong with you?" This servant will serve master with water. "

"Grandma, you don't have to worry about that. I don't need any water right now. "Listen to me. Listen carefully."

"Kunning Palace has been waiting for a few days for the imperial physician to come back. In the end, my body was still injured even after I fell into the water. Now that we are afraid of the cold, Kunning Palace must not panic, you and Si Tang must guard Kunning Palace well. "

"And in these few days, with the doors shut tight, the Kunning Palace wanted to thank the guests. If anything happens to the Grand Concubines of the late emperor, tell them to find the empress dowager or Palace Bureau. "

With a bit of clarity in his teachings, Zhang Siyan was afraid that he had not explained everything to him. Kunning Palace had then offended the Emperor. Until the emperor steps into the Kunning Palace again, Zhang Siyan would still worry about whether he would be able to live.

"Take this down and send someone to the Chen family in Wanzhou to investigate what happened in the Chen family while the late emperor was still here twenty years ago. "Also, I remember that the Chen family is now a Marquis, so you should check on the reason behind the attack. It was so late."

There were records of hereditary titles in the imperial palace. On one hand, it was to ensure the legitimacy of hereditary titles. The second aspect was also so that there would be evidence to follow in the future.

Ever since the emperor ascended the throne of Supreme Harmony Palace, imperial guards had always been working for the emperor. This was the first time they had travelled so far to the southern Wanzhou.

"Just remember to investigate this in private. If there's anything wrong, report it to me in the future." The empress was a man and the emperor was a woman. If such a thing were exposed, it would be a huge scandal.

Ever since the Tang Dynasty, when the Wu Clan had the right to change dynasties, the emperors of the later generations and the aristocratic families mostly suppressed their women. After all, no one wanted to be under a woman.

Moreover, if there was always a woman like Wu family in the dynasty, where would the ethics of this world be?

Therefore, Zhang Siyan's identity and secret could only be kept a secret. Even the imperial guards of the Wanzhou could not know that the Emperor did not trust these people.

It had only been half a month since the emperor paid his respects, and the change in power was still ongoing.

Of the power that was currently in Zhu Youtang's hands, other than the military power, imperial guards and a few other generals that guarded the border, they were all in the capital. Therefore, this military power wasn't in the complete control of the Emperor.

Zhang Siyan was only one thing that the emperor had to worry about, and there were even more other things. For example, the afternoon assembly that had been shut down by the Emperor of the Crown for 15 years was once again activated on the third day before the emperor left.

Therefore, the Emperor not only had to go to the imperial court in the morning, he also had to go to the imperial court in the afternoon.

Since the emperor had started his afternoon assembly, it meant that he would have to spend more effort on politics. It would take a lot of time and effort to receive the Six Articles of Advice, the marble temple and the Academician of the Proclamation of Political Affairs.

"This servant obeys. I will hand this matter over to the person personally trained by this servant. I hope that you can rest assured." Gu Jianzhi respectfully took the jade stone from the emperor's hand and placed it on his chest, then started to think about who should take it.

knew that the emperor was investigating the empress, but he didn't know why the emperor was investigating the empress.

Although he was being kept secret like this from the emperor, Gu Jianzhi would never go too far to investigate things that the emperor did not want him to know. Because the emperor was a king and he was only a subject.

Moreover, towards Zhu Youtang's relationship with him, it was already not a relationship between a master and a servant. Therefore, Gu Jianzhi was even more obedient to his rules.
