Jinzhong took advantage of the day off to run to Yanwan's bedroom and asked in confusion.

"Master Ling, you and Concubine Shu are so close. If the Queen Mother finds out that it was you who did it, it will definitely be bad for you!"

Yan Wan said, "I didn't expect that she would place her hopes on me. The Queen Mother is very powerful and will definitely know. However, the Emperor will not let her have her way."

In the original book, the Empress Dowager had already learned from Concubine Mei about the prophecy that the child in Yihuan's belly would conflict with the Emperor and his son, but she did nothing and let the Emperor be afraid of Yihuan and her son.

The Empress Dowager had witnessed the power of the Imperial Observatory when she was a concubine, and she also suppressed dissidents with the help of the Imperial Observatory.

The Queen Mother would not be afraid of this astronomical phenomenon. Once the baby in Yihuan's belly is born, she would probably take action immediately.

But the emperor was also wary of the empress dowager's interference. Just after the Qi Ru incident, the empress dowager wanted to take the child away. The emperor would definitely not sit idly by.

Yan Wan asked back: "This matter will not benefit you at all. Once any clues are leaked, the Queen Mother and the Empress will definitely be on your radar. Why are you helping me?"

Jinzhong understood, and said: "I have told you many times that as long as you need me, I can do anything for you!"

"Since your master is on good terms with Shu Fei, I am naturally willing to take the risk and help Shu Fei."

Yan Wan smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Eunuch Jinzhong. I will need your help in many more matters in the future."

Jinzhong laughed and said, "What are you talking about, Master? Why are you being so polite to me?"

Yan Wan asked, "By the way, has the Queen become suspicious?"

Thinking of the reason for looking for Yan Wan, Jin Zhong said hurriedly: "In the Queen's mind, I'm afraid that all the bad things were done by your master, but she can't find any evidence, so she can't do anything about it."

"There is some unusual movement from Ling Yunche's side!"

Yan Wan was shocked, "Ling Yunche? What did he find out?"

Jinzhong explained, "How could he have such ability? I discovered that some of the guards were very dissatisfied with Ling Yunche. They felt that he became a guard in front of the emperor because of the recommendation of the Empress, and that he actually had no ability at all."

"It just so happens that a nobleman with some status has set his sights on this position and is planning to punish Ling Yunche so that he can vacate the position."

"What? Is there such a thing?" Yan Wan was stunned.

In the TV series, in order to prevent Ling Yunche from blocking the original owner's path to promotion, Jinzhong teamed up with the original owner to frame Ling Yunche for stealing Concubine Jia's bellyband, resulting in Ling Yunche being beaten half to death.

The original owner changed her mind temporarily and pleaded for Ling Yunche with the Queen, which saved Ling Yunche's life.

Yan Wan looked down on Ling Yunche, and for the sake of her future plans, she had not yet thought of taking action against Ling Yunche.

Who knew that Ling Yunche would have such a disaster in his life, and if it wasn't Jinzhong who took action, it would have been someone else.

Jinzhong was somewhat dissatisfied with Yanwan's reaction, thinking that Yanwan still cared about the friendship between childhood sweethearts.

"Why do you look like that, Master Ling? Are you worried about Ling Yunche? Master Ling, don't forget how Ling Yunche treated you a few days ago..."

Yan Wan raised her hand, signaling Jin Zhong to shut up, and said speechlessly: "Which eye of yours saw that I felt sorry for him? I just think Ling Yunche is really unpopular."

"Zhao Jiuxiao, his brother who used to suffer in the cold palace with him, has stopped interacting with Ling Yunche because he fell in love with Lan Cui."

"He went to work in the Yangxin Palace and was targeted again. I wonder if he is really unlucky or if he is just a coward who is hated by others?"

Jinzhong immediately turned from anger to joy: "Of course he is the one who is disliked, Master Ling, what should we do then?"

Yan Wan said, "What should we do? What does it have to do with us? We'll just have to watch the show."

A few days later, the emperor did not turn over the card that night, and Yanwan was ready to go to bed when she suddenly heard Jinzhong come to report.

"Empress Lingfei, have you rested? The Emperor asked me to invite you over."

Lan Cui stayed behind, Chun Chan hurriedly helped Yan Wan dress up and went with Yan Wan to meet the emperor.

Yan Wan asked, "What's going on?"

Jinzhong and Chunchan supported Yanwan on both sides. Jinzhong replied, "The emperor had just fallen asleep when there was a commotion outside. They said that thieves had entered the palace and stolen many treasures."

"The guards on duty that night reported that they found something in Ling Yunche's room. Now the guards have arrested Ling Yunche."

Yan Wan asked, "So, it was Ling Yunche who stole those things? Then why did the emperor ask me to go there?"

Jin Zhong said, "Ling Yunche has refused to admit it, but some guards have pointed out that he did it. The emperor has ordered Ling Yunche to be tortured!"

"After the incident, my master sent Jin Bao to report to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother believed that Ling Yunche was innocent, but there was evidence."

"The Emperor was having a hard time deciding. The Empress said that Master Ling was also in charge of palace affairs, so it would be better to ask Master Ling. That's why the Emperor asked me to ask Master Ling to come."

Yan Wan originally thought that this matter had nothing to do with her, so she just had to wait and watch the show. However, the Queen still refused to let her stay out of it. Could it be that the Queen thought that this matter was planned by her?

Ling Yunche was tied to a pillar outside the emperor's bedroom, and a guard was whipping him hard with a whip.

Ling Yunche could only repeat over and over again: "I didn't, it wasn't me, I didn't steal those things, I was wronged!"

Jinzhong looked at the way Ling Yunche was being tortured. If he hadn't gone to ask Ling Zhuer to come, he would have volunteered to beat Ling Yunche to vent Ling Zhuer's anger.

Rong Pei was waiting at the door. When she saw Jin Zhong and Chun Chan supporting Yan Wan over, she greeted Yan Wan and said to the guards who were going to carry out the execution.

"Her Majesty Ling Fei is here, why don't you stop immediately, or you will offend Her Majesty Ling Fei!"

Yan Wan rolled her eyes speechlessly in her heart, without even looking at Ling Yunche, and walked straight in.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Yan Wan bowed.

The Emperor offered Yan Wan a seat. Ruyi asked, "I guess Jinzhong has already told Concubine Ling what happened?"

Yan Wan nodded, and Ruyi continued, "The guards all said that Ling Yunche stole the treasure, but I think there are many doubts about this matter. The wing room is not a private place. If Ling Yunche really stole something, why would he put it there? What do you think, Concubine Ling?"

Yan Wan saw several guards kneeling below. They should be the so-called witnesses, right?

Yan Wan asked, "You said that Lord Ling stole it, so other than these things, what other evidence do you have?"

A guard replied, "Madam Lingfei, we have seen Ling Yunche go to the treasure storehouse many times, and Ling Yunche always swaps shifts with others. When we ask him where he went, he is evasive and can't tell us. He was on duty today, but he was not there when the incident happened!"

Where else could he go? Of course, he went to hang out outside Ruyi's bedroom. Yan Wan complained in her heart, saying, "In this case, he is indeed suspicious."
