Tonight in the palace is destined not to be a peaceful night.

Emperor Ming of Jin entered the harem at noon and came out after nightfall when he received a report from the prime minister about an emergency.

When he came out, his steps were unsteady. After taking a few quick steps, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Eunuch Zhu was quick to support Emperor Jin Ming and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"

After Emperor Ming of Jin stood firm, instead of being unhappy, he burst into laughter.

"It's okay. I just had too much fun today and I feel a little exhausted."

"I never thought that I would regain my glory one day."

Eunuch Zhu immediately said flatteringly, "Your Majesty's might and power have never weakened, but you are tired from the work of state affairs."

"Your Majesty is the true dragon emperor, and has always been majestic and majestic."

Emperor Jin Ming felt even more comfortable after hearing this. "The medicine that Princess Qi sent me really helps me to show my virility better. Hahaha!"

Because he hadn't had a chance to see the emperor for many years, he was so happy that he would not have been willing to come out of the harem unless the prime minister had important matters to ask for.

"Go to the Imperial Study Room!"

Eunuch Zhu waved his hand, and several eunuchs carried the dragon sedan over and carried Emperor Ming of Jin to the imperial study.

In the imperial study, Prime Minister Xu Gongmin was already waiting there. After the ceremony, Emperor Ming of Jin was in a good mood. He raised his hand to let him stand up, and then asked, "Lord Xu, it's so late, why don't you stay at home and enjoy yourself, but come to me? What's the matter?"

"Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"

Xu Gongmin bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the refugees from the northwest have arrived in the suburbs of the capital. The Fuyuan City in the east has kept them in captivity to prevent them from spreading to the capital. The number of refugees has reached more than 30,000!"

"Now, it's not just a matter of food. There's an epidemic in the enclosure. Two to three hundred people have died in the past two days. The refugees are extremely panicked and are demanding to leave the enclosure. They're even clashing with the soldiers!"

"I have come to the palace overnight to ask Your Majesty to decide whether to send an imperial physician or..."

Xu Gongmin did not continue speaking, because Emperor Ming of Jin knew what he was going to say next!

Emperor Ming of Jin frowned, without much thought or hesitation.

"Lord Xu, this is not the first time you have encountered something like this. You know very well how serious the consequences will be if the disease spreads."

"Sending the imperial physician over, based on past experience, is basically useless. Let's use the most effective method!"

The most effective way is to eliminate the disease at the source!

Eradicate the disease at the source, and along with it, the people infected with the disease and those who may be infected will also be eliminated!

Xu Gongmin bowed and walked out!

Eunuch Zhu complained, "Lord Zhao is really a jerk. He called His Majesty out of the harem for such a small matter."

Emperor Ming of Jin smiled and said, "Lord Zhao is my most trusted minister. He is loyal to me and fulfills his duties conscientiously. He deserves praise!"

"Let's not talk about him anymore, serve the food!"

"I'm going to eat a lot of fish and meat today to replenish my body!"

Emperor Ming of Jin had been working hard in the harem for most of the day and only now felt hungry!

Unexpectedly, Eunuch Zhu seemed to have just remembered and reported, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you won't be able to enjoy the feast for the time being, because something strange happened in the imperial kitchen, and you were busy before, so I couldn't report it to you for the time being."

Emperor Jin Ming was puzzled, "What's going on?"

Eunuch Zhu swallowed his saliva and said, "All the ingredients in the imperial kitchen, whether raw or cooked, suddenly disappeared!"

"The royal chef just turned around to pour the oil, and the food that was cooking in the pot disappeared!"

"The inner court guards are doing their best to investigate, but there is no result yet. The imperial kitchen is also urgently sending in food ingredients from outside."

"Because the food materials entering the palace have extremely strict requirements, they are being transported into the palace as quickly as possible. However, it may take a little while before they can be used!"

"Tonight, all the nobles in the palace are unable to provide meals. They can only eat some snacks in the small kitchen next to the imperial kitchen to fill their stomachs!"

Xiaomei emptied the imperial kitchen clean because Emperor Ming of Jin commented that she was a fat cat.

After eating and drinking, on the way back to Prince Qi's Mansion, when passing by some poor homes in the capital, he put most of the ingredients and food he had taken at their doorsteps or in their yards, leaving only a table of meat for Tian Rumo to eat.

These good deeds and good deeds, when they were in another world, when Tian Ruomo's cultivation was still low, she went everywhere to gain experience, and often took Xiaomei with her to do them, and Xiaomei was very good at doing them!

Emperor Ming of Jin's mood suddenly turned bad, and his stomach started to growl.

He said grimly, "Search the palace thoroughly for me!"

"Also, send some snacks!"

He had to fill his stomach first before supervising the inner court guards' investigation into the matter!

He stole everything from the imperial kitchen, even stealing the food the instant the chef turned his head. The thief's ability was incredible.

If we can't catch the person, doesn't that mean that even the palace is not safe?

In the harem, undercurrents are also flowing because of what happened today!

One was that several princes were beaten, which became a hot topic.

The people from Fengyi Palace, Zhuhua Palace, and Huwen Palace, rarely agreed, and cursed Tian Ruomo together in their respective palaces in order to please their masters!

Another thing is that Emperor Ming of Jin had not flipped the card for many years, but in the afternoon he actually flipped the card of a talented person and asked that talented person to serve him for the whole afternoon until the evening.

Before dawn, the talented person received the reward from Emperor Ming of Jin. Because her name was Yang Shishi, she was named Concubine Shi, which shows how much Emperor Ming of Jin favored her!

Another thing was that the imperial kitchen was mysteriously robbed, and the only thing they could have for dinner was some dry snacks.

Because there were not enough snacks to share, many low-level palace maids and nannies were still hungry, and people were in panic!

The palace welcomed the sunrise amidst chaos!

At this time in the Xiumian Pavilion of the Prince of Qi's Mansion, the candles had burned out and the sunlight was shining into the yard.

In the yard, Hu Xiaohui sat on a big chair, staring at the gate with wide eyes.

On both sides of her stood two old maids and four strong maids.

These people, like Cui Mo, were brought from her mother's home and are her confidants!

They were holding wooden sticks or thick ropes in their hands, all with angry looks on their faces, waiting quietly!

Last night, after Hu Xiaohui finished her bath, she asked someone to take away the bathtub. When she looked for Cui Mo again, she was nowhere to be seen!

The old nanny reported that Cui Mo claimed to deliver chicken soup to Xiao Yan on behalf of Hu Xiaohui, but Hu Xiaohui did not ask Cui Mo to deliver chicken soup to Xiao Yan.

Hu Xiaohui reacted instantly and realized what Cui Mo was going to do!

She quickly sent someone to Qiyun Tower to find Cui Mo, but the guards stopped them and confirmed that Cui Mo was inside, serving Xiao Yan and taking a rest. No one was allowed to disturb her.

Hu Xiaohui was so angry that she wished she could bite her teeth to pieces!

So many things happened that she was not on guard enough, allowing Cui Mo to find an opportunity and actually climb onto Xiao Yan's bed.

Damn it!
