When Zhu Yunye walked in front of Yu Chu, he suddenly stopped and the eunuch following him almost bumped into his back.
The eunuch was frightened and took a step back before asking in a low voice, "Your Majesty, what is this?"
Zhu Yunye ignored the eunuch. He looked back at the closed palace door and said in a low voice, "Send someone to keep an eye on them. I want to know what they do and say every day."
"Yes, Your Majesty." This was not a difficult matter. The eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Emperor with a smile on his face. "The maids and eunuchs here are all slaves. I will give you the orders when you come back."
Zhu Yunye didn't expect the eunuch to say this, so he immediately looked towards him and asked with a straight face, "Are you sure all the palace maids and eunuchs here will listen to you?"
When the eunuch who was still smiling at first heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly and his whole face turned pale. He was not a fool and could not fail to hear the implication of the emperor's words.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what you mean is" the eunuch's eyes suddenly widened, his legs softened and he slowly knelt down on the ground, explaining in a confused manner, "Your Majesty, I really don't know that they are so bold and dare to eat and drink."
"
"I know I'm guilty. I'm going to investigate and get to the bottom of it. I'm loyal to the Emperor, and I will never have any second thoughts. Please tell me for sure!"
Of course Zhu Yunye believed in the eunuch's loyalty, otherwise he would not have taken him with him. However, the beating was still necessary.
Since the Lu family dared to make a request to surrender to the vassal, there was probably someone behind them to support them. And the two of them lived deep in the palace. If no one sent them a message, how could they contact the people behind them?
Therefore, some of the palace maids and eunuchs around the Lu family must have turned to them.
"Get up." Zhu Yunye glanced at the eunuch kneeling on the ground.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!" After thanking him profusely, the eunuch stood up tremblingly.
It's good to be afraid. Only when you are afraid can you handle this matter carefully. Zhu Yunye smiled secretly and said in a relaxed manner, "Since you want to investigate, then you should investigate carefully to see who is communicating with outside the palace. Don't let anyone go."
one person."
"Yes, I promise with my head on my neck that I will get to the bottom of this matter and give the emperor an explanation." The eunuch was also furious. Secretly communicating with the palace was a serious crime, and now even he was implicated. He was ready
Use any means necessary to find out.
The eunuch was able to stand out from a group of young eunuchs at that time, and he was also a ruthless person. Although he was able to serve as a eunuch and serve the emperor, it was closely related to the fact that he was Zhu Yunye's companion. But he was able to get the opportunity to accompany Zhu Yunye
, and he doesn’t know how many people it took to achieve it.
Back then, Zhu Yunye was the legitimate son, and everyone knew that he had the greatest chance of inheriting the throne, and no one else would give up easily.
With the eunuch's words, Zhu Yunye nodded slightly, then turned around and walked towards Yuhu.
"Go back to the palace."
The eunuch did not leave with him. He stood on the spot and bowed to Yu Chu as he left. He didn't straighten up until Yu Chu's shadow could no longer be seen.
In the short period of time when he straightened up, the eunuch's whole demeanor was completely different. He changed from his submissive demeanor just now, like a general giving orders to the entire army.
"Someone is coming!"
With a soft drink, four people immediately knelt down in front of the eunuch.
The eunuch looked at the four of them carefully, then gritted his molars and said word by word, "Have you all heard the military order that our family just issued in front of the emperor?
"
The four of them looked at each other, straightened up, and clasped their hands together, saying quickly, "I heard you, little one."
"It's good that you heard it." The eunuch nodded lightly, with a smile on his face. "Then let's talk about the scandal first. If you can handle this matter, you will be rewarded! If you can't handle it well,"
"Before we take our own heads, we will definitely take your heads first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them were trembling all over.
The other eunuchs around him wanted to bury their heads in their chests and did not dare to listen.
"Yes, a small amount of fixed and fatal force!"
The four of them answered through gritted teeth. Some even bit their lips until blood stained them without even noticing.
"Go and do it." The eunuch waved to the four of them with confidence.
The four people immediately stood up, summoned their subordinates, and headed towards the palace behind.
After Zhu Yunye returned, everything returned to the same as before. But while he was sitting in Qianqing Palace handling government affairs, he was always thinking about the eunuch's news.
Soon, three days passed.
The eunuch came to tell Zhu Yunye tremblingly.
Zhu Yunye glanced at the gray-faced and dejected eunuch, put down the memorial and said, "Still haven't found anything?"
The eunuch knelt on the ground and shook his head feebly, "This slave is guilty of death, please be punished by the emperor."
After saying that, he prostrated on the ground, as if he was at the mercy of the emperor.
Although Zhu Yunye was a little disappointed, his dislike for the eunuch had not reached the point where he had to execute him.
After all, the eunuch has been following him for many years and has been serving him wholeheartedly, without any credit or hard work.
"Tell me first, how did you check?" Zhu Yunye thought for a few seconds, then reached out to pick up the ginseng tea and took a sip and asked.
When he heard that there was still a chance for things to turn around, the eunuch immediately straightened up and said gratefully, "Thank you, Your Majesty for your kindness."
Zhu Yunye stretched out his right hand and waved it slightly, indicating for him to continue explaining how he checked.
The eunuch did not dare to neglect, and quickly told him what he did in detail.
Zhu Yunye frowned after listening carefully. There was nothing wrong with what the eunuch did, and it was even a little fierce, even killing people.
However, no useful information could be found out about the dead person, which made Zhu Yunye a little discouraged.
He nodded, looked at the eunuch kneeling in front of him, sighed and said, "Get up, you've done your best."
The eunuch indeed tried his best, but failed to find any useful information. It can only be said that this matter was beyond his ability, and it was not that he was not careful.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." The eunuch stood up with great gratitude. Until he stood up straight, he felt that his feet were very unsteady.
When he was outside the palace gate just now, he hesitated for a long time. He thought of all the endings. He even held out the hope that the emperor would spare him this time, but he did not expect that the emperor would spare him so easily.
.
Thinking of this, he felt extremely guilty for not being able to share the emperor's worries.
Zhu Yunye noticed the eunuch's gnashing of teeth and asked curiously, "What do you have to say?"
The eunuch looked fierce and said, "Your Majesty, there are only dozens of eunuchs and maids in Dowager Lu's palace. Since the people who cheated are among them, it is better to execute them all to avoid future troubles."
It has to be said that a person with a defective heart can be really ruthless. When Zhu Yunye walked in front of Yu Chu, he suddenly stopped and the eunuch following him almost bumped into his back.
The eunuch was frightened and took a step back before asking in a low voice, "Your Majesty, what is this?"

I have to say that people with mental flaws are really cruel when they are cruel.
