Baili Qingcang was stunned for a moment. Then his brows furrowed tightly. If all officials entered the Palace together, something serious must have happened. "Ninghua, what happened in your mansion?"

Shen Ninghua thought quickly, but her gaze became even calmer.

"Father Emperor, today, I held a banquet for enjoying the plum blossoms in my mansion. The madams and young ladies of all clans were invited. However, there was an accident during the banquet. The plum trees accidentally caught fire, and many madams and young ladies were hurt. I have used the Skin-Revitalizing Ointment to treat them."

Baili Qingcang's gaze was sharp, and he looked at Shen Ninghua with a complicated expression. "Summon the officials."

A group of officials came in led by Lin Yue, the patriarch of Lin family, and Zhao Kun, the patriarch of Zhao family. As soon as they entered the hall, they knelt on the ground. "Greetings, Your Majesty. We are here to ask Your

    Baili Qingcang's eyes turned stern instantly. "You said you captured the persons who assassinated the Imperial Guards alive?"Chu Junyi cupped his hands and reported, "Not all of them were captured alive. Only a few persons were captured. But I think it's enough to get something valuable."Baili Qingcang ordered coldly, "Bring them in!"Chu Junyi looked at the black-clothed men who had been brought over to the hall. The look in his eyes was as cold as a knife. "Father Emperor, these persons suddenly appeared to intercept and kill the Imperial Guards when Her Highness and I were on our way to the palace. At that time, they were dressed in night clothes and wearing masks. They did not have the slightest evidence on them to prove their identities. They could have acted secretly, but they did not. Furthermore, as soon as they appeared, they shouted that they were to rescue the princess and me. Such an act was clearly a despicable method of maliciou

    Baili Qingcang sat on the high throne without saying a word. But his expression became even more raging, and none of the officials dared to look directly at him.Zhao Huiying's heart tightened. She looked at the crying consorts and frowned as she said coldly, "Be quiet! Beware of where you are and stop crying!"The cries immediately stopped. The consorts held their handkerchiefs and sobbed softly.Baili Qingcang closed his eyes tightly and then slowly opened them. "This is the Palace. It is the center of the Da'an Dynasty and also my home. I didn't expect that the place where I live had become an area sheltering evil people and countenancing evil practices!""Your Majesty, calm down." The officials hurriedly knelt down."This is the golden hall where I hold court and meet the civil and military officials every day. But who would have thought that its ground would be poisoned by someone and become a place for harming pe

    Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes. A trace of mockery flashed through her eyes and then quickly disappeared.A while ago, she was a popular consort enjoying the favor of the Emperor and sympathy of others. But at the moment, she was the disgusting Consort Yin. It was indeed true that the imperial family cared little about affection.The person sent to fetch Consort Yin quickly returned and reported with a pale face, "Your Majesty, Consort Yin has committed suicide to escape punishment."Baili Qingcang suddenly kicked the imperial writing desk. "Committing suicide? Did she think she could evade the investigation by committing suicide? I must investigate this matter thoroughly." Chu Junyi reported, "Father Emperor, I have just inspected the hall and interrogated the guards around. I found that the Internal Affairs Department alone is responsible for sending people to clean the ground of the hall every day. So I need to start the investigation from th

    After getting up, neither of them mentioned their quarrel. However, their relationship was much closer than before, and there was even a silent tacit understanding between them whatever they did.In the past, Bai Ruo was the person who understood Shen Ninghua's habits the best. But now, Chu Junyi often got the things done for Shen Ninghua before Bai Ruo could react.One day, when Shen Ninghua was studying the news sent by Hong Ling and analyzed what had happened recently step by step, a maidservant of Baili Anning was led by Hong Ling and quickly walked in."Greetings, Your Highness.""Qiu Shi, why are you here?"Qiu Shi's face was pale. After seeing Shen Ninghua, she knelt on the ground and said, "Princess Zhaohua, please save my mistress."Shen Ninghua frowned. "Get up. What's wrong with Anning?""Your Highness, please follow me into the Palace to take a look. My mistress has been lying on t

    Baili Jinchuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Chu Junyi. He laughed coldly. "Left Imperial Censor, you are really great. Instead of taking you into custody, the Imperial Guards let you enter the princess' bedroom openly."Chu Junyi replied coldly as he confronted Baili Jinchuan directly with an icy expression, "Didn't Your Highness openly kidnap the princess?""Nonsense!"Chu Junyi did not care about his angry words. "Is Your Highness trying to play for time and waiting for someone to inform His Majesty or Her Majesty? Oh, I almost forgot. Her Majesty is very fearful of Your Highness. It is no good letting her come here. So I guess you will not inform her. In that case, you can only inform His Majesty. However, before I entered the imperial palace, I heard that the minister of the Ministry of Justice and the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs had gone to Chengqian Hall to meet His Majesty. So His Majesty won't be able to come here in tw

    Shen Ninghua was holding a letter in her hand. After reading it, she threw it into a charcoal brazier aside.Chu Junyi walked into the room bringing with him the cold wind. He handed his cloak to Bai Ruo. When the maids left as ordered by him, he asked, "Ninghua, did you hear what happened?""Yes, Baili Jinchuan's tendons and arteries were damaged. He doesn't have internal strength and he is unable to carry heavy objects. Now, he even couldn't kill a man standing still before him, let alone fighting the enemy in a battle. However, why did Father Emperor agree so easily when he asked to go to the battlefield?"Chu Junyi sat beside her. His beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly. "His Majesty would not have agreed to do that so easily. But when someone close to him puts forward a suggestion, he might change his mind."Shen Ninghua looked up and said, "Someone close to him? Did you mean… Liaochen?" After thinking about all the persons ar

    Baili Qingcang was filled with anger. He kept walking back and forth in the hall like a lion whose territory had been invaded. After trying for a long time, he still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He abruptly walked back to the imperial writing desk and pushed everything on it to the ground.Shen Ninghua narrowed her eyes and stood in the middle of the hall. When Baili Qingcang vented his anger and sat down on the throne, she stepped forward and took a cup of tea from the hands of the chief of the Internal Affairs Department."Father Emperor, this has already happened. No matter how angry you are, it's useless. Fortunately, Consort Yin's plot wasn't implemented and you can take actions to foil it. There won't be serious consequences.""Contaminating the royal bloodline is a serious crime that would result in the execution of the whole family line. Although no serious consequences have occurred, I cannot accept such an outrageous insu

    The issue concerning Baili Anqing's dowry could be serious or trivial. If it was dealt with slightly, the Internal Affairs Department would just be punished for its's negligence. Then the Empress would step in and order the Department to present the dowry in full. If it was handled seriously, it meant that the Internal Affairs Department would be guilty of disregarding the dignity of Baili Anqing as a princess and fooling her!The attitude of the Empress towards this issue at the moment meant that she wanted to make it a serious issue, the more serious the better. In this way, it would implicate not only the Internal Affairs Department but also Baili Anning.After all, she had a long list of dowry, which was even more than she deserved. Baili Anqing's dowry was less than she deserved because she was fooled by the officials. At worst, she would lose face but could win the Emperor's attention and sympathy.

    Bu Yonghan looked up, without the slightest bit of pride of being a princess in her eyes, there was only the fear and hatred that haunted her.Shen Ninghua looked at her with a cool expression, "It really didn't occur to me that our meeting again would be like this."Bu Yonghan sneered, "Now that I've fallen into your hands, I'll do as I please if I want to kill you.""Is that so? Listen to your tone as if you are not afraid of death, but your eyes tell this palace that you are afraid.""Oh, I would be afraid of you?"Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, a cold smile flashed in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you, after all, you're also Prince De's rightful consort, I'll have someone send you back, and Tai Consort Qi and Prince De will naturally settle you down properly."Thinking of the desperate scene of being locked inside the empty room before, Bu Yonghan's body shuddered violently, "I'm not going back, I'm not going back!""It'

    Shen Ninghua frowned slightly, also somewhat unable to find a clue, “The Tu Su family has existed for more than a hundred years, started in the former dynasty, and the words of the former dynasty ... does it mean that the Tu Su family had a relationship with the Great Yue State in the former dynasty? Even to the serious speculation, Tu Su family is the nail that the Great Yue State has planted on our side."Baili Junyi gazed in contemplation, "What you said is extremely possible, a family that has developed a bit too legendary, moreover, if the Tusu family has no other purpose, why would they be so eager to control the courtiers and make a name for themselves?"Shen Ninghua nodded, "If what we've guessed is true, then the mind of the Tu Su family is simply too terrifying."If not for Baili Junyi's deep affection for her, then the Tu Su family's plan to have Tu Su Qingli approach him could have succeeded.
