Chapter Fifty-One: Silence Yourself, for This King

sted to the light, then slowly sat up...Looking at the scattered wine jugs on the ground, and the Second Prince lying beside them, he suddenly remembered that he had spent the night drinking with the...Chapter Fifty-One

Be silent, my lord.

"My subordinate accepts the blame..." Wan'er knelt on the ground again, "My subordinate will immediately send Wuji to…"

"Wujī…" Empress Ying whispered the name, "No need, this palace has a better candidate..."

Yinggui Fei's mouth twitched upwards, revealing a cruel smile.

"Go, fetch my darling for this palace. This palace hasn't seen her in ages; it's time to invite her into the palace." Yinggui concubine scattered the crushed note on the bed side.

"This is Zhao Mu Miss entering the palace." Wan'er slowly retreated.

Walking outside the hall, I couldn't help but wipe the sweat from my head…

Since the Empress has been in contact with her old associates from the southern islands, she’s changed…

Any woman in the deep palace, no matter who she is, must have a dirty underbelly. Wan'er knows how ruthless the Empress Dowager can be, but since the incident on the Minnan islands, Imperial Consort Ying has become even more ruthless. The amount of dark forces she's been using recently has also increased...

For example, Mu Jinjiao...

Mu Jinjiao was a woman whom Ying Guifei had saved by chance. Although she wasn't particularly stunning, she could be considered pretty with clear eyebrows and bright eyes. However, something had happened to her, making her aura unusually cold.

This woman was not a killer, but she was colder than one. When Ying Gui Fei saved her, she only bowed to Ying Gui Fei and said that if Ying Gui Fei could bury all the people following her and give her a new identity, she would do three things for Ying Gui Fei in the future, no matter what it was, she would try her best.

The Empress Dowager had trained her within her secret organization. Wǎn'er was also a product of this organization. The severity and brutality of the training, she knew better than anyone.

It's incredible that Mu Jinjiao managed to survive the training and even enter the General's Mansion as the second young lady. This woman is truly remarkable...

But Mu Jinjiao was after all a secret agent of Ying Guifei. Cultivating a secret agent requires a massive investment of manpower, material resources, and energy. Therefore, both powerful families and imperial relatives would not readily use their own secret agents. But this time, Ying Guifei actually used this secret agent...

Could things have gotten to the point where we need to use proxies Or has Your Majesty's ambition grown too large

It's fine, her master's affairs are beyond the comprehension of a lowly servant like her. The more she knows, the faster she dies. She should just stick to her own duties...

Soon, Mu Jinjiao appeared in Ninghuigong.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Mu Jinjiao reports for duty!" Mu Jinjiao knelt outside the screen in a neat and tidy black outfit.

"Hmm... get up!" Ying貴妃 didn't get up, nor did she call Mu Jinjiao in.

"Greetings, Madame Xie!"

Mu Jinjiao stood outside the screen, her head respectfully bowed.

How did you do with what I asked you to do last time

"My subordinates have already gained General Mu's trust."

"Where's the military warrant"

"General Mu is about to go on campaign. My subordinates believe this is not a suitable time to steal the military talisman, so we did not."

"Well done!"

"Thank you for the praise, Lady Xie!" Mu Jinjiao still stood there with a stoic expression.

"Continue doing this, and remember to never lose General Mu's trust."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Um... This Palace has something more important for you to do now..."

"As you wish, my lady! I will do my best!"

In the Ninghui Palace, a conspiracy is being quietly plotted. Outside the Chancellor's mansion, Rui Tianling and the Chancellor are still locked in their battle...

"The old minister, leading everyone in the ministry, begs Your Highness to forgive us!"

"Please forgive me, Fifth King…"

As Chen Zixuan listened to the chancellor repeatedly apologizing outside the carriage, he became even more anxious...

"Rui Tianling, say something! Murong Ke'er is still at the Prime Minister's Residence. Can you speed things up a bit! Hey, are you even listening to me!" Chen Zixuan lifted the carriage curtain to look outside, then back at Rui Tianling...

Rui Tian opened her eyes and looked at Chen Zixuan...

"Be silent!"

"Rui…" Chen Zixuan swallowed hard, and closed his mouth...

Just shut up, why are you so aggressive and loud... My ears are going to be deaf...

Actually, Rui Tianling's words were laced with inner meaning. They were directed at the external chancellor...

Chen Zixuan was just caught in the crossfire...

Outside the carriage, Minister Murong was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes, and continued to plead guilty loudly...

"I beg forgiveness from the Fifth King!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me..."

The cries of guilt from outside the carriage grew louder, and more and more commoners gathered around. Some had already begun to discuss it.

"What's wrong with the Prime Minister's residence"

"I don't know, maybe I offended the Fifth Prince"

"Offending the Fifth Prince An apology outside would be considered light."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Should copy his house..."

"Yes, the Fifth Prince is such a good person, he must have evidence. He must be punishing the Prime Minister for our sake..."

"Well, no official is a good person. A high-ranking official like the chancellor must have amassed a fortune. Just look at his chancellor's mansion, it's even better than the Duke of Five's!"

But… the Prime Minister isn’t young anymore. It’s not good for him to kneel out here like this…

"The Fifth King wouldn't be wrong, the mistake must lie within the Prime Minister's Residence!"

After hearing the comments from the common people outside, Chen Zixuan could only shake his head in dismay...

Such brain-dead fans exist in every dynasty...

Things haven't been cleared up yet, but they just keep blaming others. Oh well... I really don't know what to say anymore...

However, Chen Zixuan was still very happy to see this situation. After all, the current discussion was about the prime minister. The more the prime minister was discussed, the more people would stare at the Prime Minister's Mansion. This way, after rescuing Murong Ke’er, the prime minister wouldn't be too hard on her. After all, with so many people watching him, he couldn't ignore his own daughter anymore, right And Murong Yue wouldn't be able to abuse Murong Ke'er under the gaze of so many dark eyes!

So…

Keep spitting your saliva all over the prime minister's face!

But... could I at least go in and check on Kaoru first I'm really worried about her....

Chen Zixuan mumbled, "Ruitian Ling..."

"Presumptuous! Prime Minister Murong, when did I say you were guilty!" Rui Tianling's voice, slightly cold, echoed within the carriage.

Whew… I was scared to death! Turns out it wasn’t about me… It's okay, it's okay...

Looking at Ruitian's gloomy face, Chen Zixuan silently thanked his lucky stars that it wasn't him who had angered Ruitian... This guy was so fierce the moment he opened his eyes. Was this... morning grumpiness

"The old minister dares not… Fifth Prince, please forgive me…" The Prime Minister bowed to the carriage again. "But this old minister has one thing he must say…"e wound on her back, and she gritted her teeth in pain, insisting...No, I can't go head-to-head with this man. Otherwise, I'll be the one who suffers...Mu Jinjiao swallowed a pill that increased her i...
