The dishes prepared at the banquet were extremely exquisite. Many of them were unique to the northwest that were perfect in aroma, color, and taste. It was obvious that they had taken a lot of effort in preparing this.

Baili Junyi tasted the dishes and wine. The feeling of strangeness in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He felt that Zhou City's officials were too enthusiastic and respectful. Even if the officials here were afraid of him, they didn't have to be so cautious to curry favor with him.

Shen Ninghua did not think much of it. She heard the sound of flute and looked at the door with interest.

A woman in a red dress and a veil over her face walked in with a jade flute in her hand, illustrating her slender and fair fingers. Her skirt was slightly long, and she dragged it behind her. She walked lightly on the ground as if she was stepping on the clouds, looking like a fairy.

Everyone in the hall was attracted by the appea

    Baili Junyi started to observe the officials more and more attentively. The more he scrutinized them, the more suspicious he became. There was definitely something that they did not know about Zhou City. This place was definitely strange!The officials present were entertaining him wholeheartedly, so he allowed them to please him. At the end of the banquet, he even praised Zhou Da wantonly, as if he had forgotten the little episode in the middle of the banquet.After getting on the carriage, the tipsiness on Baili Junyi's face due to the alcohol disappeared completely. Shen Ninghua looked at him with a playful smirk. "You are really good at pretending. Those officials have all been fooled."Hearing this, Baili Junyi smiled, but his tone was particularly cold. "Zhou City has a strange aura everywhere. We will stay here for a while. Maybe we can catch something big.""How do you feel about Miss Zhou?""Miss Zhou? Who? Zh

    The further Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua walked, the more frightening the scene in front of them became. Shen Ninghua's face turned ghastly pale, and she almost vomited.The ground was full of people, and later the horses had to stop because there was no place for them to move.A horrible smell of decay filled the air. Occasionally, someone spotted Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua coming over and wanted to get up to ask for help, but they did not even have the strength to move. They only twitched twice before lying on the ground without any sound.This place was only a few miles away from Zhou City, but the dirtiness and rot in this place were in stark contrast to the city's cleanliness and prosperity. It was hard to believe that a rich city was located not far away from here. Starving people and corpses scattered everywhere, and they didn't even have the strength to get up and ask for help.Baili Junyi handed the horse to the guard be

    Shen Ninghua personally checked on some seriously ill victims, prescribed medicine, and watched them take it. After checking their pulse, she heaved a sigh of relief. Although the symptoms were slightly serious, it was fortunate that they would be able to control it as long as they took extra precaution thanks to the slightly chilling weather in the late autumn. After this period of time, they would recover and be in a much better condition.After a full day of work, Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi returned to their residence to rest. The two children seemed to know their parents' hard work, so they played quietly beside them for a while before being carried away to sleep.Hong Ling sorted out and compiled the news that her subordinates reported and sent it to Shen Ninghua."Miss, I have already sent people to inquire about the incident. Some time ago, a lot of victims were forced to leave and seek help from the surrounding places. However,

    The chilly aura enveloped Baili Junyi's body, and his gazes were so cold as if a storm was coming. He could tolerate the Zhou Family's influence and the power of the officials, but he could not tolerate them cruelly oppressing the people with their power and position! The victims were already homeless, so they could not be deprived of their last chance of survival!He walked to Shen Ninghua's side and coldly swept his gaze over Zhou City's people."My wife is skilled in medicine, and even the head of the Academy of Imperial Physicians verified her ability. When she said that the water is poisonous, there's definitely some problem with the water. Those who don't believe her can drink the water to prove her wrong. If you don't dare to come up, shut up! Or I'll assume that you're making baseless accusations!"As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ninghua, who had been paying attention to the crowd, noticed that some of them had shrunk their

    When Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua returned to their residence, they looked rather dismayed.It was such a perfect plot from the Zhou Family. After today's incidents, the citizens and disaster victims would be grateful to Zhou Ziqing. If they wanted to make a move on him and his family without any solid proof, the people would certainly help the Zhou Family clear their name.However, with Zhou Ziqing's style of conduct, it would be hard for them to find evidence against him.Baili Junyi carefully looked at the reports that his subordinate submitted and finally threw them to the corner of the table. "The Zhou Family, what a character. I never expect such a character is hidden in the tiny Zhou City. I don't know where to start." He had repeated this thought over and over again in his mind, and his feelings intensified.Shen Ninghua nodded. "Yes, a family can control a city. Zhou Ziqing is not to be underestimated."

    Feeling Baili Junyi's gaze fall on her, Zhou Jingshu was a little nervous and shy. She thought that she had finally gotten Baili Junyi's attention, but things had developed in a completely different direction."Thank you for your concern, Miss Zhou. My wife is taking care of the matters, so you may leave."Zhou Jingshu's face turned pale. She bit her lips slightly and explained, "Your Highness, I have no other intentions. I just hope that I can do something for the victims."Baili Junyi revealed a cold and faint smile. "You can go ahead and help my wife. She works the hardest as she put in all her efforts on the victims."Zhou Jingshu's lips turned fair and she nodded. "Yes, I got it."Shen Ninghua happened to walk over, holding a stack of papers in her hand."Junyi, these are the types and amounts of the medicinal herbs. I have already listed the ones that are lacking. Zhou City has released news t

    Looking at the two children lying obediently in the bed, who seemed to be a little listless, Shen Ninghua felt her heart ache. "Bi Zhu, prepare warm water for the bath and put the Detoxification Pill that I have made inside the bathtub to dissolve it. I want to bathe the children.""Yes, Miss."Bi Zhu nodded and did as Shen Ninghua had instructed.After helping the children take a bath, Shen Ninghua tucked them in soft blankets.The two children were wrapped in snow-white blankets, only revealing two red little faces. They lowered their heads listlessly and supported each other as they leaned against Shen Ninghua's arms. It was such a heart-melting sight.After taking a bath, their situation did not improve at all. Although they were no longer crying as they leaned against their mother, their weary appearances were still worrying."There is no abnormality in the pulse, and there is no trace of poiso

    Shen Ninghua looked at the two sleeping children. The anger in her heart was also burning. "Well, since we suspect the Zhou Family, let's start with them! They were not innocent anyway. Even if we wronged them about the kids, they were not entirely innocent."Baili Junyi nodded and went forward to touch the faces of the two children. Then, he got up and walked to the study. "Before we make a move on them, we need to take off their hypocritical disguise first, or the city will be in an uproar even if we get rid of them because they're still in the sheep's clothing.""You're right."Shen Ninghua and Baili Junyi made up their minds. The Zhou Family also realized the crisis.Zhou Ziqing looked at the aggrieved Zhou Jingshu in front of him, and his expression was difficult to discern. "You said that Princess Yi was called back by the maid because the little Princess and little Bei Zi were not feeling well?""Yes. I w

    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'

    How could Bu Linglong not expect that she would see Shen Ninghua again at this time. At this time, she was in a sorry state, bound by ropes around her wrists, weakly kneeling on the ground, her eyes gripped with blackness. Knowing that at this time, she was completely without any advantage or credentials, she still tried hard to open her eyes wide and looked at Shen Ninghua who was sitting above her.Shen Ninghua came to the border city with Baili Junyi only yesterday, after a night's rest, her spirit recovered, because of her relaxed mood, the whole person seemed to be carrying a soft light in general, sitting up beautifully as if she didn't look like a real person, "Princess Linglong, I didn't expect that we'd meet again in such a way."Bu Linglong tilted her head and looked at her with an arrogant face, "Empress Mother, I also didn't expect that you would follow the Emperor to the border city."Shen Ninghua smiled faintly, "Is the princess's body alright?"

    This personal expedition of Baili Junyi drew extra attention from the people of the entire Da An Country. In the nearly one year since he ascended to the throne, the Great An Country had experienced a lot of turmoil, but in the end, it had all come through unscathed. Nowadays, the emperor emphasizes pragmatic subjects, strictly combats corruption and bribery, and the official atmosphere of the entire Da An country is exceptionally clear.When the officials are clean, the lives of the people underneath will naturally be better. They treated Baili Junyi as a bright ruler, and now, this bright ruler is going to go on a military expedition, and with the Empress in tow, which is really heartbreaking.Many of the people who originally had little feeling for the Great Yue Country began to loathe them, believing that if it wasn't for them messing with the border, the Emperor and Empress Dowager wouldn't have had to put themselves in harm's way.Just as they were discussing

Otherwise, think of those who jumped before the great officials down, and go to great lengths to let the emperor will be held in the election, and then, the election is not over, their official position is not, after that, implicated in the Palace of the daughter, even if it is the show girl is not also gray back to the Palace of the?They also sort of saw that the Emperor had no intention of bringing new people into the harem from the beginning.Originally, those courtiers dared to openly call the Emperor's bluff by virtue of their influence in the court, but now they have all been driven out of the court, and their fate is pathetic.

    Prince Yi stared wide-eyed, his eyes flashing with full shock, “How could the Tu Su family be related to the Great Yue State?" These ambassadors of theirs were locked up in the post house and were extremely misinformed on weekdays, and to this day, they still hadn't figured out the reason for the Tu Su family's overnight defeat.Baili Jun Yi hooked the corner of his lips, the two countries are once again at war at the border, and these messengers are no longer necessary to maintain the surface peace, he is even more lazy and he circled:"This matter I ordered to seal the mouth, Prince Yi naturally not clear, well, there is no more other things, you will step Linglong lead back, go back after a good sharpening of temperament, the next time a similar thing happens, I will not look at the face of the Great Vietnam lightly forgiven."Icy cold words were heard in his ears, shocking Prince Yi couldn't help but tremble in his heart, "Your Majesty, this king has taught his

    Bu Linglong swept a glance at Xiao Bao, only to feel that this child was just as annoying as her mother, this was just a small age, and she was this vicious.At this point, she had completely forgotten that the reason why she had received this beating was entirely of her own making, and, for someone of her age to be reckoning with a three year old, she didn't know who the truly vicious one really was!Shen Ninghua's five senses were extremely sharp, sensing Bu Linglong's hidden anger and hatred, a cold light flashed in the bottom of her eyes, originally she didn't want to be concerned, but now she wanted to make things clear, otherwise, wouldn't it be better to let Xiao Bao have to bear a bad name at a young age?"Princess Linglong, is what Luo Yao said true?"Bu Linglong hurriedly defended, "Empress Mother, how could I have such thoughts, the reason why I stayed in the palace in the first place was because you invited me, and later on, it was even more so be

    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.
