Chapter 282 I only have you and Ling Yunche
While Yan Wan was comforting Hongli in the Yangxin Palace, the sky in the Yikun Palace was about to fall.
Jinzhong very intentionally kept Zhang Yun, under the pretext that the emperor loved his favorite concubine, Concubine Xian, and would never let her get into an accident. He could only let the genius doctor work a little harder and extend this last period of treatment a little longer.
Zhang Yun bared his teeth and looked reluctant, but in fact he entered the inner hall excitedly to check Ruyi's pulse, trying to figure out why she was so durable.
Outside the house, Jinzhong interrogated the palace maids and eunuchs of Yikun Palace one by one.
But the testimonies of these palace maids and eunuchs were very consistent - except for Concubine Xian, Rong Pei, Ling Yunche and A Ruo, the others had never interfered with them. Concubine Xian was even more wary of everyone except the four of them and never let anyone else touch her food.
Obviously, in the end, the irrefutable evidence was found in the food scraps - the eldest prince had recently been providing Ruyi with food soaked in safflower and musk, and the accumulation of little by little finally led to the abortion of her child.
Jinzhong bent his waist slightly and said, "Big Brother, do you have any objections to this matter?"
Yonghuang said expressionlessly: "Get away from me, you little slave. No matter what you write, there is nothing I dare not do or admit."
Jinzhong was not angry. He was always patient and tolerant of a fallen man. "Although the eldest prince is discouraged, I am always careful. I must prove his guilt, one thing at a time, so that he will never be able to turn over a new leaf."
Yonghuang's stiff eyes moved slowly: "You..."
He looked Jinzhong up and down, somewhat puzzled, but mostly indifferent, and lowered his eyes again: "Is Ulanara dead?"
Jinzhong said softly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. Doctor Zhang said her condition is stable and her pulse is full of vitality. She will be fine after some rest."
Yonghuang's face twitched and he took two steps towards the main hall like a zombie. Unfortunately, he was quickly stopped by Jinzhong and his men.
Jinzhong smiled and said, "Big Brother, please don't make things difficult for me. After all, she is the emperor's sweetheart. You have to understand that Concubine Xian has committed crimes that are punishable by the death of her entire family, but the emperor has suppressed them for her and only demoted her rank. In a few days, he will find a reason to raise her rank again."
Yonghuang showed an ugly smile on his face: "Yes, it has always been like this, it has always been like this, she is the favorite concubine, the only woman that the emperor cares about, who else is it, what does it matter to the emperor?"
He staggered into the heavy rain.
Jinzhong glanced at Jinshou.
Jin Shou immediately followed with his head lowered and his eyes pleasing to the eye.
The departure of Yonghuang, the person in charge, did not affect Jinzhong's continued work.
With a faint expression, he rewarded and encouraged several people who had made meritorious contributions to the report. In front of everyone, he promised that Sanbao Lianyun and others who had made meritorious contributions would be able to have normal meals in the future, and he also rewarded each of them with ten taels of silver.
As for those who were slacking off, he did not punish them. However, living in this Yikun Palace, not having any rewards was the biggest punishment.
Sanbao and Lianyun looked at each other and almost immediately realized what Jinzhong was trying to do.
They did a great job this time, but precisely because they did a great job, it was impossible for them to be transferred away in a short period of time - Eunuch Jinzhong needed them to fully control the entire Yikun Palace.
The two men's hearts were pounding. They were afraid of being discarded, but also excited about the great rewards they would get if they could accomplish something.
Hailan looked uneasy and tried to speak several times.
Jinzhong noticed her very considerately: "Aruo, right? You also heard the emperor's order just now. I will personally extract your tooth in a while. Don't worry, I still have some skills in my hands. I will definitely extract it cleanly and neatly."
Hailan's eyes widened in horror: "No, I...I know I'm wrong!"
She didn't want to endure those inhuman tortures anymore.
Unfortunately, Jinzhong would not let her go. He asked everyone to go about their business and asked two young eunuchs to hold Hailan down. Jinbao handed over a pair of pliers, and Jinzhong took them. The two young eunuchs then pried open Hailan's mouth.
The scene was too bloody, but Jinzhong had a lot of fun doing it.
When Hailan screamed in pain and fainted several times and woke up again, he chuckled: "Miss A Ruo has a sharp tongue. I don't know how many people have been harmed by your mouth. Now that the source of trouble has been removed, life will be better."
Hailan was in pain and fear, trembling all over, wishing she could faint and never wake up again: "Please, please let me go!"
Jinzhong whispered, "Miss A'ruo, do you know how to ask for help? Then when you were hurting others, why didn't you think of responding to their requests for help?"
She personally pushed Ling Zhuer to go to Qixiang Palace to suffer.
When she repeatedly turned a blind eye to Ling Zhuer's requests for help, did she ever think that one day she, who was so high and mighty, would also be in a situation like Ling Zhuer, with nowhere to turn to?
She does love Ruyi, but her love is poisonous and wants to poison to death anyone who gets in Ruyi's way!
Jinzhong gently pulled out her last tooth and whispered, "Miss Aruo, please don't die. Think about Concubine Xian. If you die, who will care about her? Who will take care of her? She will be so lonely in the future without a sister like you."
This is a lie, but it is really useful to Hailan.
She endured the pain and was brought into the main hall with blood in her mouth.
Inside the room, Ruyi had woken up and was lying on the bed, crying silently.
Rong Pei shouted angrily, "What is Eunuch Jinzhong trying to do?!"
Jinzhong narrowed his fox eyes and smiled wickedly: "Madame Rong, do you also want to experience the feeling of having your teeth pulled out so that you can learn to speak properly?"
Rong Pei glanced at Hai Lan, whose mouth was covered in blood, and said fearlessly: "If you dare, Eunuch Jinzhong, then you can pierce my teeth..."
Ruyi suddenly said, "Rong Pei!"
Rong Pei immediately shut up and walked quickly to the bedside, feeling surprised and relieved: "Master, are you feeling better?"
She was really scared of the way she looked like a corpse just now, as if she didn't care about anything anymore.
Ruyi looked at Rong Pei and said, "Don't talk back to Eunuch Jinzhong in the future. He is the chief steward in front of the emperor. You shouldn't offend your superior."
Rong Pei immediately responded obediently: "Yes, I understand. Master, just take a good rest and don't worry about me!"
Ruyi looked at her tenderly: "Rong Pei, I only have you and Ling Yunche."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Hailan looking at her with a broken face. There was hurt in her eyes, but more of it was expectation.
She lowered her eyes and said, "Eunuch Jinzhong, have you completed the task assigned by the emperor? If you have, please leave now. I am not feeling well and cannot greet you."
Jinzhong was polite and well-mannered. He smiled and said in a gentle voice, "Master Xian has also suffered a great crime. Fortunately, the eldest prince has been executed and can no longer be a prince. This can be regarded as revenge for your child."
