Jun Ziyou is a master who doesn't know how to live or die, relying on the support of someone behind him, he doesn't care about working to his death. After drinking and eating, he sleeps beautifully, wakes up at noon, and carries Jiang Linyuan into the palace again.

It's just that this time, he didn't go to meet the saint, nor did he go to see Concubine Yu or Concubine Li, and went to the most remote palace. Once he arrived here, the little eunuch who guided him straightened up a lot.

"Master Shaoqing, what kind of wind is blowing today, why would you think of going to the Taiping Palace to meet Ning Concubine?"

Looking at the attitude of the palace servants, one can tell that this person is not favored on weekdays, and even the servants who are on duty can be stepped on by others, which can be seen to be miserable.

"This is weird. When this lady talked back to Concubine Yu at the dinner party, she didn't seem to be out of favor at all. It's only been a few days, how can she be so neglected?"

"Your Excellency Shaoqing doesn't know something. Concubine Ning was punished because she contradicted Concubine Yu, and she was also banned from the palace these days. But her situation here is no different from Concubine Yu's. After being sent away, there is only one personal maid left, how can life be easy? So let me tell you, you better not spoil the fun, lest you get bad luck on your body."

"It's her who is grounded, not me. She can't go out, so can't I go in?"

This person is really handsome, even dared to trespass in the harem, knocked on the door without waiting for a response from inside, just pushed the door open and entered the palace garden.

"Ning Concubine, Ning Concubine, are you there? Madam??"

The court lady who heard the sound walked a few steps forward to meet her, glanced timidly into the hall, and reminded in a low voice: "My lord, you must not trespass in the harem, the empress is still taking a nap, please respect yourself."

"Calm down? What's the reason for getting angry? Who is mad at your empress again? I have to go and see, I can't let my empress get mad."

The more he obstructed, the more daring Junziyou became. After winking at Jiang Linyuan, he bypassed the obstructing maid and entered the palace, just facing Concubine Ning who was sitting at the table embroidering.

"Noisy, who is this palace supposed to be? It turned out to be the young minister of Dali Temple who showed his skills at the family banquet that night. If you don't thoroughly investigate Concubine Yu's case, why come here to this palace? Can't you see a joke?"

In order to avoid suspicion, Jun Ziyou sat in the farthest place from her, and asked with a smile, "Doesn't Madam Ning want to buy me a cup of tea?"

"You are a hero to the emperor, but you are worthless here in this palace. I have given the emperor enough face by not asking anyone to drive you out. If you are still so reckless, don't blame me You're welcome."

Concubine Ning picked up the thin needle as she spoke, pinched it between her fingers, and touched the table every now and then, as if a gentleman would poke him into a sieve from head to toe if he dared to say one more word to anger her .

"Don't worry, Concubine Ning, I'm indeed here for this reason, there are still a few doubts in this case, and I have to find out before reporting to the emperor, isn't it?"

"But when you come to look for Bengong, the meaning is different. Bengong just said a few more words at the family banquet and was punished by the emperor. How could you suspect Bengong?"

"I have to ask the empress herself, why didn't anyone say much at the family banquet that night, only the empress was sneering and sarcastic, and happened to reveal the suspicion of Concubine Yu?"

Before he could finish speaking, Concubine Ning slapped the table with her palm. If Jun Ziyou hadn't had the foresight to sit far enough away from her, the slap would have landed on her face.

"You are presumptuous! Even Ben Gong dares to doubt, you don't know how to live or die!!"

"Your Majesty is right. I just don't know how to live or die. It's not just you. Even Concubine Yu and Concubine Yan have been suspected by me. Since I have offended the harem all over the place, I am not afraid of making myself an enemy anymore."

Junziyou looked around and found that although the Taiping Palace was located in a remote place, far away from the imperial study room, it was not small in scale, second only to Concubine Yan's Changle Palace, so it can be seen that this one was also honored and favored back then.

As the lord of the first palace, she should be a concubine even if she is not a noble concubine, but now guarding the huge palace, she is only a concubine, and she may have committed a crime to get here.

"Mistress Ning should have been a concubine in the past."

"Which palace man who loves to gossip is talking too much..."

"Your Majesty misunderstood. I can see a thing or two from your attitude towards Concubine Yu. I even feel that you were rewarded by Concubine Yu earlier than her, so I am so unhappy with everything she has today."

Concubine Ning gritted her teeth and glared at Jun Ziyou viciously, as if seeing Concubine Yu herself, wishing to chew his bones and devour his flesh and blood.

"So what! That bastard is shameless, and she brought this on herself! I only regret that the emperor hasn't severely punished her, but I want to take a good look at what will happen to her."

"Concubine Ning is overthinking. Even if the emperor wants to punish Concubine Yu, it is only a mistake of oversight. After all, it is not her who did the harm."

Concubine Ning was startled when she heard the words, got up angrily, went up to Jun Ziyou, pointed the embroidered needle at his face, "Say it again!"

"Your Majesty, calm down, what I said is the truth."

"Could it be that as long as someone borrows a knife to kill someone, the mastermind behind the scenes won't be punished? Ridiculous, ha... really ridiculous!"

"What you say is convincing, but what do you know?"

Jun Ziyou also stood up, with his hands behind his back, he was a head taller than others, and his natural momentum was even stronger.

Seeing him like this, Concubine Ning softened, stomped her feet angrily, and sat back in her original position, looking like a little girl.

"The palace comes from a medical school. Concubine Yu is the only one who understands medicine. Besides her, is there anyone else who can use that tree to harm others?"

"Your Majesty has got to the point. The whole world knows that Concubine Yu is good at medical skills. Someone was killed, and she was the first person to be suspected. So, if it were you, you would leave such a Obvious clue?"

"of course not!"

"So, Concubine Yu is more likely to be blamed. In comparison, you who deliberately pointed the finger at her that day are the most suspicious."

These words indeed had the effect of intimidating, Ning Pin was at a loss in panic, Jun Ziyou walked to the front of the hall in satisfaction, looked back at the man against the light, caught a glimpse of Jiang Linyuan's hand gesture from the corner of his eye, and knew that he had succeeded half.

"If things go on like this, it won't be long before Concubine Yu will be cleared of her crimes, and you will be suspected by everyone. The situation is even more difficult than it is now, so if you want to get out of the predicament, there is only one way..."

After finishing speaking, he put a letter on the table, slowly pushed it in front of Concubine Ning, smiled at him, closed his hands and left.

On the way back, Jiang Linyuan asked, "My lord, will your method really work?"

"It's just to lure the snake out of the hole. We are just foreign ministers, and we don't even know how many people are in the harem. If we act rashly, we will only scare the snake. It would be better to use the bait that will let criminals fall into the net. Everyone has weaknesses, and the key to victory is to catch them by surprise. .We'll just have to wait and see what happens until the results come out..."

In the next few days, Junziyou should eat and drink, and go to the Fireworks Lane when he has nothing to do. Is it really weighing the pros and cons of the pros and cons, and then silenced it.

The person who cared most about him was not King Jin, because Xiao Beicheng had already understood his temperament, and it would be a real surprise not to surprise people, so even if he pierced the sky in the capital, it would not be surprising.

On the contrary, Ye Lanchen, who was dedicated to his duties, couldn't sit still for a while, and found that he hadn't made a fuss in recent days, and always felt that he was brewing a bigger conspiracy, and he was always worried if he didn't take a look.

But when he went to Dali Temple in person, he saw that the repaired things had been placed all over the floor, and the building had already been empty, and Jun Ziyou was nowhere to be seen.

I couldn't see what kind of tricks this guy was up to, and I didn't want to show my face to ask, so I could only keep my doubts in my heart until a few days later, the news came from the palace.

"Concubine Li is recovering from her illness. I would like to invite some adults to a banquet to thank the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple for their care these days."

Concubines in the harem have no right to entertain foreign ministers. Obviously, the emperor nodded for this matter, so it's not good to go.

So even though he knew that he didn't contribute much, Ye Lanchen still had to bite the bullet and go to the banquet for the sake of the thin noodles.

Compared with the last family banquet, the atmosphere this time is very strange. There is more Concubine Li who has just recovered and is still described as haggard, but Concubine Yu, who was previously dismissed, is missing.

The rest of the concubines did not dare to speak nonsense because Concubine Ning was punished, and it was quiet until the end of the meal, only Junziyou could be heard whispering with Xiao Beicheng from time to time which dish the cook in the imperial dining room made was delicious.

Emperor Yuan was there, but after just drinking a glass of wine, Eunuch Huan invited him to the Palace of Compassion and Peace on the grounds that the Empress Dowager summoned him, leaving only a few foreign officials and concubines, what kind of bureau is this called?

Concubine Li can be regarded as most of the hosts of this banquet, others can keep silent, but if even she keeps silent, people will be criticized for not being polite.

She has been ill for a long time, and she is very afraid of losing the favor of the emperor and the power to assist the sixth house, so she naturally wants to take this opportunity to show something.

So Concubine Li got up, first bowed her head slightly to Xiao Beicheng, and then said with a smile to the gentleman: "Today, this palace can escape from danger thanks to the help of Lord Shaoqing. I don't know how to repay it, so I present my Da Yueshi's unique pearl." , to thank you for saving my life."

The gentleman can't bear this, he quickly declined: "No, no, it's my duty to serve the emperor, and I should do my best. How can I accept such a big gift because I did what I should do? Your empress is really embarrassed." Minister."

But looking at the beads as big as chicken eggs in the hands of the maid behind her, it is impossible not to be tempted.The gentleman swallowed his saliva, reminding himself repeatedly in his heart that it is not something he deserves, he deserves it, he deserves it...

"If there is no adult to help, I am afraid that I am still being poisoned by others at this moment, and it will be difficult to survive. If the adult refuses to accept it, please accept this palace's obeisance..."

Fearing that she would bend her knees and ruin her own lifespan, Junziyou knelt down first with a plop, which left Concubine Li at a loss.

Ye Lanchen looked funny from the sidelines, forgot his identity for a moment, and said sarcastically: "The concubine Li gave you this reward to thank you for your ability to solve crimes. It is also my blessing to have a talent like you in the criminal department. Since If you don't want to accept it, why don't you take a step back with Concubine Li, this gift will come from this official, okay?"

Before Concubine Li could speak, Junzi You said, "Master Ye's words are wrong. The next official is a talent from Dali Temple, not from the Ministry of Punishment. You must have drunk too much wine, and you were confused for a while before you spoke."

As soon as the words fell, there was a crisp sound, and it turned out that the wine cup that Ye Lanchen was holding was crushed by him.

Good guy, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice is also a practicing family.

But Junziyou relied on the silent King Jin behind him, and he was fighting openly and secretly with others, which was not in vain.

"Besides, my lord made a mistake in one word. The case has not been solved yet, so it is not considered over. Receiving a reward halfway is inconsistent with the situation and reason. Therefore, I am bold and ask my lord to calm down the scene for the next investigation."
