When the news that everyone in the harem had been poisoned spread, the entire capital fell into chaos. Ye Feihan was so infuriated that the empress turned pale with fright. Many of the ministers who wanted to send their daughters to the palace for benefits secretly stopped themselves from doing so. How vicious and dangerous was the murderer who was able to quietly avoid the poison that was administered to all the people in the palace by the Grand Hospital?

"Your Majesty, if it is a big problem, please investigate it strictly!"

When they found out that the news was not going to be released soon enough, one after another, officials were kneeling before the emperor's chamber, begging for further investigation. Ye Feihan could only unhappily announce that the morning assembly had been brought forward. All the civil and military officials in the imperial court requested that the concubine's poisoning be strictly investigated.

"Yan Cha? How? Where to find out? Which beloved one is willing to take over this matter? " The Emperor put down the paper and asked.

"…" The originally righteous minister fell into silence.

Who should he give it to? It wasn't appropriate to give it to anyone. Who would dare to follow the murderer and look for clues to investigate a case? This was the poison of the entire harem, how could ordinary people have such great ability!

There had been people who suspected that the empress was calling for a thief, but there was no clear evidence pointing to the empress. Besides, the empress had been poisoned. After all, he couldn't take poison for the sake of framing others, right?

"If this subject suspects that the imperial concubine is the empress, then the empress has been poisoned. It's even harder for other imperial concubines to get pregnant, so why did Imperial Concubine Jin give birth to the eldest son?" At this time, I'm afraid that Master Shang Shu must have put in a lot of effort. "

The empress had pointed the finger at Shang Shu Manor behind Imperial Concubine Jin. Minister Hu relied on Ye Feihan's kindness towards his daughter to show off his might, attracting the loathing of many people.

The wall was pushed aside by the crowd, and the princes and princes of the Queen's faction all resumed their lashing out at the imperial concubines. The empress's father quietly gestured to the newly appointed Chen Taishi.

He was currently cooperating with Ye Feian, and the people of Ye Feian had already secretly become one with him. This time, he had to get rid of the obstacles in front of his daughter.

Chen Taisheng took a step forward. "Who knows, perhaps this medicine is a masterpiece of the Shangshu Mansion ~"

With such a big hat on his head, Minister Hu couldn't help but angrily point at the official.

"Nonsense, this old official's loyalty to Your Majesty can be seen. Your Majesty, you have to believe in this old subject. The Imperial Concubine was born with a pure and kind nature, so she couldn't bear to kill others.

The emperor sat silently on the throne. Like acquiescence, the empress party and the imperial party's lip service.

The neutral faction of the Night's Lien had found an open space to stand on. His Royal Highness hadn't given the order yet, so now was the perfect time to sit and watch.

The harem was thrown into chaos as the battle between Ye Feian and Ye Feihan officially began. The Emperor could not spare the thought of finding trouble with Lianhe at night.

"Does Master Hou have any opinions?" one of the ministers asked.

The young duke Xiahou Yi was the emperor's younger cousin and was of the same generation as Ye Lianchi. The young duke glanced at the struggling courtiers and smiled wordlessly.

The officer who had asked the question shrunk his neck and fell silent. They weren't able to guess what the emperor was thinking. The young duke would surely understand a bit, and it would be safe to reveal a bit of his attitude.

Xiahou Yi tried to change the topic, "Lord Ye, I feel like it's time to talk about the case at hand."

As expected, just as Xiahou Yi finished speaking, Ye Feihan's emotionless face dropped the top quality blue and white porcelain tea cup on the dragon table.

"Enough, how is it proper for a group of ministers to cause such a ruckus in the Golden Hall! The Golden Hall is about to catch up with the private market. If you want to quarrel, take off your hat and go home! "

Everyone returned to their original places in silence, as quiet as a chicken.

"This official has his own plans!" Ye Yuan took a step forward under Xiahou Yi's encouraging gaze.

The emperor felt a headache coming on as he dispiritedly waved his hand, "Xuan …"

"When Xu Anguo heard that the prince was born, he sent Duke Jin, Han Ling, to congratulate his envoys. I wonder what Your Majesty is planning to do? "

Speaking of this matter, even Feihan was troubled. Minister Hu's intention was to lift it up high and gently place it down. After all, it was related to the prestige of the entire Xuan Empire. The Prime Minister demanded that they be punished severely and make an example out of others. Xu Anguo had already sent a small team ahead of time. Right now, they were staying at the inn, waiting for Han Ling to come meet them.

He didn't come early or late, but he happened to come at this critical moment.

Ye Feihan suspected that the incident caused by the harem had been done by Han Ling. It's hard to have no evidence, and it's not good to have an attack.

Ye Feihan looked at Xiahou Yi, whose expression didn't change. It seems that he really is prepared to let it go. This way, Shen Qing An would have taken care of it anyway. He took advantage of this opportunity to suppress the empress yesterday, just in time to give Imperial Concubine Jin some face.

"I have my own plans for dispersing the empire."

Ye Feihan obviously intended to sit back and allow others to attack Imperial Concubine Jin while his face darkened.

After sending off another group of Xu An's envoys, Ye Feihan was simply angered to death by that idiot Shen Qing An. He directly returned to his study and passed down the decree to the Prime Minister Shen Qing An to discuss the matter.

Each person in the imperial court had their own selfish thoughts. Now, Ye Feihan only believed in Chen Xiang and Shen Qingan, who had been single-handedly promoted to the throne.

"Since Xu An didn't accomplish his objective this time, he definitely has other tricks up his sleeves." Does the Prime Minister have a good plan? "

Prime Minister Shen hurriedly nodded his head. "This old official understands Your Majesty's concerns, but this old official feels that this is a great opportunity to cut off Han Ling's wings in the Kingdom of Xuan."

Although Prime Minister Shen had already formed an alliance with the mysterious person hiding in the shadows, he still appeared to be sworn loyalty to the Emperor. Every word was like a gem, poking into the emperor's heart.

"Oh? What's the point of having a beloved official? "

The Emperor was just wondering how he could suppress the mysterious power behind him when Prime Minister Shen spoke of his thoughts.

"This old official thinks that …"

The two of them discussed Wan Quan's plan in the study room. The Emperor was very satisfied with the Prime Minister who could read his thoughts the best. Every time he worried, he was always able to propose a solution at the first possible moment. He never ended up in the business of the Party, even though his apprentices rarely tried to use their power for personal gain. The emperor was very satisfied with Prime Minister Shen's actions — he was happy to give away a lot of gold and silver.

Prime Minister Shen was proud of the Emperor's trust in him.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine invited you over." The eunuch was aware that the emperor and the prime minister were discussing matters again, so he cautiously reported to the door.

"Jin Fei? What's the matter? "

The emperor frowned. What was this woman doing now?

Previously, she had used her favor to instruct her maidservants to go around and bully the palace maids. He had acted as if it was the eldest son of the emperor, so what sort of trick was this now …

"Since esteemed wangfei wants to invite your majesty over, then this old subject will take his leave first." "My daughter came in and took care of her illness while resting in bed. This old official is a bit worried."

Prime Minister Shen maintained a smile as he bent over and retreated.

The emperor hated to be disturbed in the middle of a meeting after the regent had resigned and regained power. Jin Concubine relied on her pampered son as an emperor to be insensible. After a long time, the empress would not only hold a grudge against her, but she would also wear down the emperor's pampered son.

To a man, a woman was just a thing that could be abandoned at any time. When one loved something, they would hold it up high and hold it up high, refusing to give it to the moon.

Imperial Concubine Jin was too naive after all these years of fighting in the imperial harem. Most heartless of all, a woman who didn't know what was good for her life would never live long in the imperial harem. The late emperor doted on Lady Xu the most, but in the end, he still killed her.

"This official will take his leave!"
