Yuchi smiled respectfully and said nothing, but scooped out a spoonful of porridge and held it in front of Lihua: "Eat first."
Lihua felt a little strange, but looking at the spoonful of porridge, she had no time to ask further questions. She hesitated for a while and opened her mouth to eat.
The moment she tasted it, Lihua's eyes widened.
She swallowed the porridge in her mouth and exclaimed: "Oh my God, what kind of fish is this made of? It's so delicious that my tongue wants to swallow it."
Yuchi Gong's expression was slightly smiling, and his tone was sparse and normal: "You have to ask Wu Xue, it's all his fault."
Wu Xue covered his eyes with his paws for a moment and buried his head so that he would not have to face his master's frightening cat aura.
"Huh? Is it made from the fish Wu Xue caught every day?" Lihua suddenly realized.
Zhichun had told her before that the fish caught by Wu Xue smelled particularly fragrant. After tasting it, she realized that it was even more delicious than she had imagined.
She nodded in understanding and figured out the previous question: "No wonder it doesn't even like eating meat. After tasting this extreme delicacy, it's normal that it doesn't like eating ordinary meat."
Yuchi Gong paused as he scooped up the porridge, then turned his head and glanced at the guilty cat.
"Well, I tasted it with you."
No matter how many chess pieces and spies there are in the harem, they can't stir up trouble and affect Chao Gang, let alone influence him through the palace concubines.
Under such circumstances, Wu Fang'er showed some signs of being favored, and people from all sides flocked to her, including spies from all walks of life.
Yuchi Gong had not made any serious effort to clean up the harem since he came to the throne. He had long known that there were many spies in the harem.
"Well, how do you say it?" Yuchi Gong raised his eyebrows.
These spies and chess pieces come from various forces, some from concubines and concubines, and some from courtiers. Linglong, for example, was buried by the Chen family many years ago and left for Chen Sisi.
He smiled slightly and calmly mentioned how he discovered Wu Xue's crime: "I heard that there was an arowana that day, and I just thought Wu Xue caught it for you. That's it."
His Cangchen Palace is as airtight as a steel wall, and ordinary chess pieces and spies cannot be placed inside.
"oh……"
Lihua praised the big cat so much that she finally sighed: "Furball is really amazing, but I still don't know which wild lake it fished from. Those fish don't look very common, they must be very rare in the wild."
It takes many years to grow, right?”
Lihua felt that the word "that's how it is" in the emperor's words was a bit strange, what kind of "that's how it is".
Most of these people were buried before Yuchi Gong ascended the throne, especially those spies who were buried many years ago and were very hidden in the palace.
After hearing the whole story, he smiled faintly and turned to look at Wu Xue, but there was a hint of danger in his eyes:
Lihua finally saw something was wrong: "Hey, what happened to Wu Xue?"
Chess pieces and spies from all sides were placed throughout the palace. Not only were they placed in various departments and bureaus, some of them were even quietly placed beside the palace concubines. The original Xiao Junzi was one of them.
Yuchi Gong listened with a smile on his face without moving, occasionally echoing a sentence or two.
She highlights Wu Xue's versatility. She can swim and fish, and has rich skills. She is a mythical beast that is rare to encounter in a thousand years.
In Yuchi Gong's view, the fight in the harem is nothing more than for favor and power. If he doesn't give it, there will be no profit, and the storm will not stir up.
"Is it?"
Lihua didn't hear anything was wrong. She smiled and thanked Wu Xue: "Maoqiu, it's only thanks to you that I can eat such delicious porridge. Thank you."
Lihua hurriedly opened her mouth to catch it, and the delicious taste suddenly made her have no time to think about it. She was completely unaware of the weird atmosphere between the monster and the big cat.
In the Tingli courtyard, the pear blossoms are filled with the joy of meeting the evildoer, and the entire west side hall is shrouded in peace and tranquility.
There is also a queen mother in the palace who is guarding and in charge of palace affairs, so there can be no chaos.
Therefore, Yu Chigong learned about Wu Xue's glorious deeds, and the most difficult moment of Wu Xue's life came.
Lihua became interested and told how Wu Xue came back wet one morning with a big fish in his mouth. From then on, Wu Xue went out fishing early every day.
Was it because she misunderstood what she said and thought it was for Wu Xue himself?
Before she could think about it, the porridge came.
It turned out that he had committed the crime a long time ago, and he still went out to arrest him every day. It was very good, very good.
After eating half a bowl, Lihua came back and explained to Wu Xue: "The arowana that Long Live the Lord just mentioned is the one in the kitchen? It was indeed the one Wu Xue caught for me."
After all, any young eunuch in Cangchen Palace at that time could feed the concubines a cup, but how could they reach the emperor?
They cried miserably and expressed their ignorance, trying their best to distance themselves from each other. They had been walking on thin ice these days.
"Yes, those fish are extremely rare, and Wu Xue knows the best, and my careful teachings on them are not in vain."
This is what Wu Xue promised on the way when he took Wu Xue out on the day of Lihua's accident, and he would brag about all his abilities to his master.
What's more, there are chess pieces and spies from various feudal kings.
At this time, Yuchi Gong said a few words lightly and brought the porridge to Lihua's lips.
Yuchi Gong made a bold move and ordered Hu Feifei to search the entire harem. No one, thing, or thing was found.
Moreover, he had never favored anyone in the harem, nor had he treated any concubine specially.
Yuchi Gong fed him one spoonful after another, and ate the pear blossoms one spoonful at a time. The more he ate, the more his appetite grew.
"I've tasted it."
Lihua then turned her attention back: "Long live Lord, please try it too, it's really delicious."
Yuchi Gong said: "It has been keeping watch for the past two nights, so it may be sleepy. Continue to eat. If it is not enough, there will be more."
When Zhichun heard this, he asked if the fish porridge would be good, and immediately went to bring the fish that Wu Xue had caught in a bucket. When Old Man Qi took a look at it, he called it a great kindness. It turned out to be an arowana, which was perfect.
"I'm very happy and have endless aftertaste. As for when, I thought my beloved concubine might not want to know, so I drank the porridge first. There will be medicine later."
However, at this moment, there was a bloody storm in the harem, and everyone was in danger.
Wu Xue had rolled her body into a ball at this moment, and her head was almost buried in her body and could not be seen.
After Lihua fainted, when Yu Chigong came back from outside Tingli Courtyard, he heard Old Man Qi say that Lihua was weak and in a coma, so it was best to drink nourishing liquid food.
"Ah, when? Long Live Lord also likes to drink porridge?"
Pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud, this investigation revealed many dirty things and even many chess pieces and spies.
Some people around the master used various means to gain favor and were regarded as confidants by the concubine without even noticing.
When Hu Feifei caught the man out, the concubines were so frightened that they were afraid of being harmed, angry about being deceived, and even more afraid of being implicated.
The more Lihua talked about it, the more cowardly it became, and the more Lihua talked about it, the more frightened it became, and finally it was rolled up like a ball, and it was as cowardly as a dog.
This is also the fundamental reason why Yuchi Gong did not go to war when he ascended the throne.
But after Wu Fang'er's accident, Yu Chigong realized that something was wrong. Someone had been colluding and hiding in hiding, and the plot was not small.
The accident at Pear Blossom confirmed his suspicion.
Therefore, as soon as he took action, he purged the entire palace with thunderous force, destroying everything he went.
