Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 474: The Suffering Courtiers

Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother panted heavily and spoke to Shi Yaoyao viciously.

Shi Yaoyao has calmed down now.

She has not yet established herself in the harem.

These two people are still useful, she can't bother with them.

The most important thing now is to prevent Ye Zhaoyi from climbing up any further.

"All three of you go down. I'll call you later and you can come back to serve me."

Shi Yaoyao said to Jiuer and the others.

However, only Lian'er walked out, Jiu'er and Qiudie did not move.

They are not Shi Cairen's people, so they will not listen to her.

"You guys go down."

The Queen Mother waved her hand impatiently.

Jiuer and Qiudie obediently retreated.

Shi Yaoyao then cleared her throat and began to talk about her plan.

"The Empress Dowager and Concubine Xu should all know that the reputation of the Poison Doctor Valley is notorious in the capital..."

Xu Rou and the Queen Mother couldn't help but look at each other.

Shi Yaoyao has an active mind.

They hadn't thought of that just now.

"Think about it, if everyone in the capital knew that Ye Zhaoyi was a student of the Poison Doctor Valley, and she openly poisoned the Queen Mother..."

"Then she's dead..."

Xu Rou was a person who could not keep her cool, so she quickly took over what Shi Yaoyao said.

The Queen Mother glanced at her with disdain.

"Shut up, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."

Xu Rou closed her mouth in grievance.

"Also, the emperor favors Ye Zhaoyi, and now he eats and lives in Ningyuxuan... Could this be caused by the medicine Ye Zhaoyi took..."

"Of course, I just feel like something is wrong..."

Xu Rou couldn't help yelling again.

This time, the Queen Mother ignored the idiot Xu Rou.

However, the fact that the emperor lived in Ningyuxuan was not because of the drug used by Ye Zhaoyi.

As long as it gets out, medicine must have been used.

Besides, she and Shi Yaoyao are very familiar with spreading rumors.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to spread the news that I was poisoned.

But compared to trampling Ye Zhaoyi to death and maiming her.

It's all little things.

As for the cost of spreading rumors, she wouldn't feel bad about spending it.

Anyway, when she was the queen, she put a lot of money into her pocket.

She is now very wealthy.

So the three bad guys in the Cining Palace began to plan how to kill Ye Zhaoyi.

Jiuer and Qiudie, who were waiting outside, were very worried.

They didn't know what evil ideas those three people would come up with to deal with their benefactor.

It seems that they have to send the letter quickly so that their benefactor can take precautions early.

Beijing.

In the past few days, another rumor has been circulating in the capital.

However, it cannot be said to be a rumor.

This is a true story.

It turns out that the Empress Ye Zhaoyi in the palace was a student of the Poison Doctor Valley.

No wonder she was able to see through Concubine Liang’s plan and recognize the poison.

However, the reputation of the Poison Doctor Valley is not that good.

The incident of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel having his entire family exterminated more than ten years ago has been dug up again.

The news was widely spread in the capital.

Ye Zhaoyi, the remnant of the Poison Doctor Valley, was also pushed to the forefront.

And...

She was so bold that she openly poisoned the Empress Dowager in the harem...

and also…

She actually used the skills she learned to give the emperor the shameful poison, so that the emperor now lives and eats in her Ningyuxuan...

Should we keep a witch like Ye Zhaoyi, who brings disaster to the country and the people, to celebrate the New Year?

Of course, it would be better to kill him as soon as possible to feel at ease.

Otherwise, what if she went crazy one day and poisoned all the concubines in the emperor's harem?

For a time, the voices in the capital city calling for an end to Ye Zhaoyi grew louder day by day.

With the encouragement of caring people...

The attitude was such that even if he wanted to cut Ye Zhaoyi into pieces, it would not be enough to appease the public anger.

However, these things are promoted among the people.

There was no one who was ignorant enough to bring this matter to the court.

Censor Zhao has been feeling uneasy these days.

He knew about this rumor on the first day it came out.

This was of course due to those people who said it deliberately in front of him.

He has also been closely observing the developments in the capital over the past few days.

If this matter had settled down, he wouldn't have said anything more.

Now Ye Zhaoyi is very popular in the harem.

It was obvious that she had caught the emperor's eye and might become the empress in the future.

He didn't want to offend the emperor.

According to his experience, these rumors would only spread for a while and then disappear.

However, this time is a little different from usual.

The rumor grew stronger.

Now, whether he is outside or at home, he can hear the three words "Poison Doctor Valley" anytime and anywhere.

he knows.

If he doesn't speak out about this matter at this time, he would be derelict in his duty as the censor.

then.

On the seventh day after the rumor spread, Censor Zhao brought the matter to the court.

Court.

Regarding Censor Zhao bringing up the matter of Ye Zhaoyi.

The civil and military officials in the court all breathed a sigh of relief.

They have been suffering a lot these days.

Although I know those rumors are not credible, but...

The reputation of the Poison Doctor Valley is not a good one.

Ye Zhaoyi is related to the Poison Doctor Valley. Even if the emperor is optimistic about her...

It is also impossible for the Great Xia Dynasty to have a queen who comes from the Poison Doctor Valley.

Therefore, this matter was a great test for these court officials.

If they brought it up in the court, it would obviously not be welcomed by the emperor.

Don’t think they can’t see that the emperor was always very kind when speaking to Ye Zhaoyi’s father.

It was as if... if he spoke a little louder, that crybaby minister would be scared into tears.

What’s more, the Huang family is still holding them by the neck.

The tea from the best restaurant in the world is really good stuff.

If they offend the Huang family, they will stop selling tea to them...

Then where can they seek justice?

So, these people procrastinated for the past few days, and no one dared to bring up this matter in the court.

However, since Censor Zhao brought up this matter today, the Emperor must give an answer.

They just didn't believe that the emperor didn't know that Ye Zhaoyi learned from the Poison Doctor Valley.

Sure enough, after Censor Zhao brought up this matter, the Emperor spoke.

"I know you are all wondering why I still trust Ye Zhaoyi even though she studied under the Poison Doctor Valley."

He nodded to Eunuch Yu.

"Xiao Yuzi, please read the battle report from the front to the nobles."

Eunuch Yu took out the battle report that had been compiled long ago.

These battle reports were compiled on the first day the rumors spread.

He was just waiting for these people to bring up the matter before he could declare it wrong.

According to Empress Zhaoyi, this is a good opportunity for the Poison Doctor Valley to become famous.

The Empress also told him to pay attention to the ups and downs of his tone when reading.

He was also asked to read out the speech with appeal and tension...

He practiced for a long time according to the Empress's request.

He didn't expect these court officials to be so slow and hold it in for several days.

It was not until today that this matter was brought up in the court.
