Li Fuhua was startled by Yun Shang's action of throwing the cup, and subconsciously hid aside. After the cup fell to the ground, he quickly picked it up, only glanced at it twice, and then spoke again: "Your Majesty, I think this
Is there anything wrong with the two cups? These cups are made in strict accordance with the regulations. The materials and patterns are all made according to the original palace methods, and the workmanship is also one-of-a-kind. I don’t know which one the empress does not like.
Where?"
Yun Shang sneered. No one must have told Li Fuhua what was wrong with the cup. Yun Shang asked him to look at it but he didn't take a closer look. He kept emphasizing in his words that these cups were made according to the previous rules.
If she insists on finding trouble, it's her fault.
"Can Mr. Li tell me who made the regulations that the dragon pattern on His Majesty's cup has four claws? And how is it done? The unicorn claws on the quilts of the princes have five claws? Mr. Li is here in this palace.
Are you pretending to be confused when you don't understand?" Yun Shang slammed the armrest, her face full of anger.
Li Fuhua was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly picked up the two cups and looked at them. His face suddenly turned pale, and then he quickly defended: "My dear, you are wronged, this is not what a slave did."
Yes."
However, Yun Shang raised the corners of her lips and sneered: "Unjust? I just asked Manager Li to take a closer look at these two cups. What did Manager Li say? That these cups are made in strict accordance with regulations? If not, I
With sharp eyes, these cups will be placed at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve. What does General Manager Li want to express by borrowing these cups? With the dragon with four claws, does General Manager Li feel that His Majesty is not worthy of being the emperor? What does General Manager Li mean?
Want to rebel?"
When Li Fuhua heard what Yun Shang said, his face became even more pale. He kowtowed a few times and said, "The Queen is aware of this. Someone is definitely deliberately framed in this matter. I am unjustly accused."
"Framed?" Yun Shang's eyes became even colder: "Manager Li said that someone was framed, is there any evidence? If someone was framed, how was it done? Isn't this cup made by the craftsmen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? This cup is being delivered
Didn't it go through General Manager Li's inspection before coming to me? Or do you think that this cup was changed on the way to me?"
When Li Fuhua heard this, he fell silent, his eyes fell on the cup, and he bit his lip without saying a word.
Yun Shang curled up his lips. He couldn't refute it. All the things made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs had obvious differences in terms of materials and workmanship. Moreover, everything made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs had obvious differences.
There is a strict inspection system, which is inspected by different people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs according to the level of the user. If the item is made for the emperor and the empress, it must be inspected by the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs before it can be sent out of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. And after the inspection by the general manager, it will be on it.
A small seal is made for easy identification, but the small seal is not uniform and easy to be copied, but has messy contents. Only the booklet kept by the steward personally records what is printed.
Yun Shang looked at Li Fuhua intently, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then said: "Why doesn't Mr. Li speak? If someone really framed Mr. Li, I will definitely help Mr. Li punish the murderer."
Li Fuhua was silent for a long time, and then said in a hoarse voice: "I can't produce any strong evidence for the time being, but I was really framed. Please give me justice, my lady."
Hearing this, Yun Shang did not hide the disdain in her eyes, and sneered: "There are many people who make mistakes in this world. If you kill someone, do you only need to say that you were framed, but you don't have to prove who it is?"
It’s just evidence of a frame-up, so you can be exempted from punishment?”
Li Fuhua stopped talking again. Yun Shang sneered and said in a loud voice: "Come here, take Manager Li into the inner prison and take him into custody."
When the guard waiting outside the hall heard the words, he quickly responded, walked in, and stood next to Li Fuhua. Li Fuhua frowned and said loudly: "I can walk by myself." Then he stood up and left.
At that time, he turned his eyes and glanced at Yun Shang, with obvious hatred in his eyes.
The guards ignored Li Fuhua's words. They pinned Li Fuhua's arms on the left and right, and pulled him out of the main hall.
Yun Shang watched Li Fuhua being taken away by the guards and left the Weiyang Palace, and then said: "In this palace, only the rumors among the palace people spread the fastest. Let people spread the news to the palace people everywhere, and then say
Li Fuhua wanted to rebel, so I ordered him to be imprisoned in the inner chamber. The more serious the situation, the better. It is best to make people think that Li Fuhua will definitely be convicted of this crime this time, but he will not survive. "
Qin Yi hurriedly agreed and went down to prepare. However, Qian Zui was a little surprised as to why Yun Shang would let Qin Yi do this. After a long silence, she spoke: "What's the deep meaning of this, Mr. Li?"
This matter was actually caused by us, but what if it becomes such a big fuss and someone in the palace investigates it?"
Yun Shang's hand gently stroked the rim of the tea cup, and smiled and said: "I still say the same thing, who can prove that we have done something wrong in this matter? Is it because people spread the story about Li Fuhua in the palace?
To lure the snake out of its hole. Li Fuhua has been in the palace for so many years, has a deep foundation, and is in charge of such a lucrative place as the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I am afraid that he already has his own power, and maybe he has his own backers, including many people in the palace.
They are all bound by interests. I let everyone know that Li Fuhua was charged with treason this time and his life was in danger. Those people were afraid that Li Fuhua would bite them out with a random bite, so they would naturally try their best to save him."
Yun Shang took a sip of tea before continuing: "This time Li Fuhua's crime is not enough to remove him. After all, even if the cup came out of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the person who should be dealt with most should be the craftsman who made the cup. Although Li Fuhua
He is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. At most, he will be accused of poor supervision. This is not what I want. If someone tries every means to save him or even robs him of prison, then I will have reason to convict him of treason.
.”
When Qian Zui heard this, he immediately opened his mouth and became tongue-tied, and said twice in succession: "Your Majesty, you really do not miss anything."
Yun Shang laughed when he heard this: "No omissions? Not yet. You immediately take people to the House of Internal Affairs, imprison all the people from the House of Internal Affairs in the Internal Affairs Prison, and torture them day and night, asking only one question.
Ask him if he knows what Li Fuhua has committed."
Yun Shang smiled with some interest and said with a smile: "When the guards were asked to take Li Fuhua away from the House of Internal Affairs, everyone in the House of Internal Affairs must have seen it, and they were all guessing about Li Fuhua's crime. While they were still there,
If you don't hear any rumors, take everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for questioning, and you might get some unexpected clues."
Qianzui also laughed and responded quickly, going down to get ready. Yun Shang thought for a while, then hooked her fingers and asked Qianzui to bend down. Yun Shangfang leaned into her ear and gave instructions.
: "Put our hidden stake next to Li Fuhua, and imprison everyone else separately. Let our people tell Li Fuhua that when the guards went to the House of Internal Affairs, the cup-making craftsmen were too frightened, so they shouted
Manager Li told them to do this."
Qianzuo quickly agreed, quickly exited the main hall, and hurriedly went to give instructions.
Yun Shang raised the corners of her mouth, squinted her eyes slightly, and was thinking about other things in her mind, but suddenly she noticed a gaze coming in from the door of the palace and falling on her.
Yun Shang paused for a moment, then opened her eyes and looked towards the door of the palace. There were two people standing at the door of the palace, one was Qing Hao and the other was Shen Ke.
Yun Shang didn't need to think carefully to know that it must be Shen Ke, and she laughed secretly in her heart. She was afraid that Shen Ke would soon find a way to spread the whole story to Xia Huanyu's ears. But she didn't know.
How would Xia Huanyu view it?
Yun Shang did not expect that the first person to come to inquire about this matter would be Hua Ling.
As soon as Hua Ling entered the inner hall, she sat down on the chair next to Yun Shang, with worry in her eyes: "After I entered the palace before, I discovered that there were some internal affairs supervisors in the Xia Palace.
The people in charge of the Shangyi Bureau, the Shangyi Bureau, and the Bedroom Bureau are all working together. A single move can affect the whole body, and each of them has a deep foundation in this palace, so they did not move. You are facing the House of Internal Affairs in this way.
Is there any danger if the general manager launches an attack?"
Yun Shang saw that her eyes were full of worry, and she was really worried about herself, so she quickly smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother, I have arranged everything, nothing will happen."
Hua Ling was still a little worried, and after thinking for a while she said: "But it's okay, there is indeed some chaos in the harem. After I entered the palace, they deceived me into being a newbie and didn't understand anything. They increasingly did whatever they wanted, which is what I should have done.
It's time to deal with it. If you don't clean up the harem, these slaves will step on the master's head. Besides, you still have a long time in this palace, so you should make more plans for the future."
Yun Shang nodded slightly and said with a smile: "What the Queen Mother said is exactly my consideration."
Hua Ling nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Okay, just let go and do it. If you encounter any difficulties, you might as well ask for help...your father. When he was in power before, although he gave up the power of the harem,
I have already let it go, but the harem is an extremely important place after all, and he must be secretly paying attention to it."
Yun Shang responded with a slight smile. Hua Ling lowered her head to pick up the tea on the table, took a sip, and then said: "The night before last, Xia Huanyu mentioned to me that if he wanted to pass this new year, he would
Let's go out of the palace for a walk. He said that after so many years, he has not been able to go out and see the mountains and rivers of Xia Kingdom. Once we leave, you must be more careful."
Yun Shang's hand holding the teacup paused slightly. Xia Huanyu had mentioned this matter before, but Yun Shang did not think that he left the palace at this time just to see the scenery of Xia Kingdom.
Yun Shang was silent for a moment, then nodded with a smile and replied: "Okay, but the world is not peaceful now. If you go out of the palace, you still have to bring more people with you. When your mother leaves the palace, don't forget us.
