At this time, in the palace, Emperor Ming Yan was listening to the report from the shadow guard.
Shadow Guard has been following Xue Sen for a few days and has figured out almost everything.
Xue Sen was in Qintian Prison, a mere fifth-rank official, with no luck at all. He also had a promiscuous sex life, and his life was very tight.
A few months ago, he was taken to an "elegant gambling bureau" and he accidentally made a few bets. First he won, then he lost... and then he lost more and more.
You must know that the imperial court has just promulgated a new law regarding gambling. If this matter comes to light, his official position and wealth will not be saved. After "a hundred sticks", his life will also be in danger.
At this moment, the man in black appeared and asked him to write an IOU and suspend debt collection.
No matter how stupid Xue Sen is, he knows that he has fallen into someone else's trap, but he can no longer get out.
After that, just a few days ago, the man in black asked him to take this trick, drive away his colleagues, falsify records... and promised that after he complied, he would repay his gambling debt.
As for who the man in black is, he doesn't know.
That's what it is, a very simple routine.
But what Emperor Ming Yan was concerned about was that the man in black appeared in May. In other words, the other party did not do it temporarily, but had set up the situation a few months ago, thinking of taking advantage of it at a certain opportunity.
The celestial phenomena "fooled" him.
The fundamental purpose of using the same mysterious celestial phenomena to counter Yan Shiyue's reputation as the "Blessed Empress" is obviously to alienate their relationship and attack her "sacred favor".
But whose interests have been hindered by her holy favor? So that the other party wants to deal with her so deliberately?
The shadow guard lowered his head and asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, how should we deal with this person?"
On the other side of the man in black, the shadow guard is still watching.
If something happens to Xue Sen at this time, it will definitely arouse his vigilance.
But Xue Sen has already been tried and tortured, and he will definitely not be released again.
Emperor Ming Yan thought for a while and suddenly sneered: "Then let me add another strange thing to my Yue'er!"
The shadow guard understood and retreated silently.
So that night, Qintian eunuch Shiling Xue Sen was killed by a tree branch in his yard.
Afterwards, we sent someone to check and found that the middle section of the branch had been eaten away by insects. This was an "accident."
However, with the censor who was injured first, who would believe that this was an accident?
The censor advised her to be executed, but she was injured. Xue Sen mentioned the celestial phenomena, implying that she had harmful intentions to the king, and she died...
Who wouldn’t be frightened by it?
If this situation continues, I'm afraid rumors of evil will soon spread. After all, Lady Fu should be compassionate and benefit the world, not "those who go against me will perish".
At this time, "Tao Bu Yu Xing Shuo" was published, and as soon as it was launched, it set off a craze.
On the same day, a place was selected in the inner city and construction of the "Zhangxing Tower" began.
Those who have read "The Tao Does Not Talk to the Stars" will instantly burst into admiration for the king on the throne! Not to mention, this building is not for stargazing, but for palming stars. From ancient times to the present, which monarch dares to say a word about the stars in the sky?
The word "palm"?
Such great courage is enough to leave a name in history. All officials immediately sang his praises again.
In the great atmosphere, Yue Workshop began to sell clairvoyance.
Dear, do you want to witness the "Tao" of the stars with your own eyes? Yue Workshop can satisfy you!
Baiguan really had no words for her taking advantage of every opportunity... While nagging, he went to buy it honestly.
After all, who doesn’t want to see the stars in the sky!
This is a scenery that no one has ever seen before. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I can recite several poems!
In fact, clairvoyance at this time has to reach the level of astronomical telescopes of later generations. It is not mentioned, but it is enough to bluff people. Besides, she is a majestic princess, who dares to find fault with her?
Such a profiteer!
Before that, Yan Shiyue also gave the Queen Mother a magnifying glass.
The Queen Mother has become dazzled in her old age, and it is much easier for her to see things with a magnifying glass.
This gift was truly sent to the heart of the Queen Mother, and she hugged her and kissed her for a long time.
In fact, how should I put it? After all, the Queen Mother is not Emperor Ming Yan. The Queen Mother may have 50% love for her, but 50% of it is for the "Fu Niangniang". But she is Emperor Mingyan's biological mother after all, and 50% love her.
That's enough. Anyway, what she gave back... was only five points.
After coming out of the palace, Weibo said to her: "Master, it will be a pleasure for Kong Sanniang to add makeup tomorrow."
"Oh," Yan Shiyue said, "Tell Aunt Linlang to prepare a generous gift for me. You can go next door and ask my mother if she wants to go."
Perhaps no one expected that after this incident, she would now completely let herself go...
She said at that time that she was going to add makeup to Kong Sanniang, so she would definitely go. Of course, if she went, she would definitely be called cool and unkind, but even if she didn't go, wouldn't she have said what needed to be said?
Therefore, not only did she go, she also had to go in person.
The next day, she went to the Hou Mansion with Meng Min.
After hearing the news, Mrs. Ning, Kong Sanniang's mother-in-law, rushed out to welcome her. Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "There's no need to be polite, and there's no need to alarm the Marquis and the old lady. I'm just here to give Sanniang some makeup."
of."
Mrs. Ning always knew that this man acted differently from others. Even if he said there was no need to alarm him, he really didn't need to alarm him. She thanked him profusely and took them there.
There were already many people in the courtyard. When they saw them, they all came to greet them. The bride-to-be Kong Ningxin also came out to greet them.
Kong Sanniang was petite and exquisite, with beautiful features and bright eyes when she looked at her.
Yan Shiyue waved her hand to excuse herself and asked Meng Min to step forward first.
Meng Min presented two sets of masks, and while holding Kong Sanniang's hand, she said, "We couldn't forgive you for what happened before. I hope you won't care about it."
Kong Sanniang and Ning family naturally did not dare to talk to each other.
Then Yan Shiyue also stepped forward and presented the gift list.
Gifts for adding makeup must be opened on the spot. Yan Shiyue gave this gift as a single gift, six sets of hairpin rings and jewelry, and two hundred taels of silver for adding makeup.
This is too generous.
Ning said anxiously: "Your Highness, I dare not take this seriously!"
"You're welcome," Yan Shiyue said, "My father and I had a little temper, and the third lady of your house also went shopping in the limelight. This is my wish, so please don't refuse."
When she said this, Ning was really embarrassed and could only express her gratitude.
However, Kong Sanniang stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, I have an unkind request."
Yan Shiyue said: "Say."
Kong Sanniang said: "I have read the biography of Lady Fu and have always admired His Highness very much. His Highness stood up for Ning Xin, and Ning Xin was overjoyed. His Highness said that he would come to add makeup to Ning Xin. My mother said that His Highness might not come, but Ning Xin always believed it."
Since His Highness said it, he will definitely come! Now that His Highness is really here, Ning Xin is so happy!"
Her eyes were bright and sparkling with the light of a charming girl.
Yan Shiyue was familiar with this kind of light and could not mistake it, so she immediately switched to the heartthrob mode and said softly: "Yes, I will definitely come if I promise." She touched her head: "I wish Ningxin
After marrying Kou Dalang, Luan Feng and Ming will grow old together, okay?"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Kong Sanniang's eyes lit up, and she said coyly with a red face: "Then, can Your Highness give Ning Xin something personal, anything is fine..."
Yan Shiyue: "???"
Fortunately she is a girl...otherwise this request would be quite perverted.
As a fan-loving maniac, how could he disappoint a soft and obedient girl? Yan Shiyue took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and tied it on her front with a smile: "Take it and play with it." (Unfinished)
