Chapter 112: Changes, a big setback
After Yun Mujiu watched the maids leave, a lonely expression appeared on her face.
The next second, she adjusted her expression, but she still looked a little gloomy.
In a dark corner of Huayang Courtyard, the secret guard Ying Liu was hiding.
When he heard the conversation between Yun Mujiu and his servant, he roughly guessed what had happened.
I could only say silently: Princess, please don’t blame me.
Before I knew who the man in black was who saved you, the prince had already seen him and knew his identity. I didn't report it.
Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.
"What's going on? What are you all doing for a living?" The emperor's angry voice echoed throughout the room.
Yun Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, began to tremble uncontrollably.
The Emperor and Prime Minister Yun both received news sent back by the secret guards and understood exactly what had happened outside the Ye Mansion.
They worked hard to plan and arranged people to cause trouble in front of Yefu Gate, but the outcome was disappointing.
Yun Mujiu actually turned the situation around!
After reporting the news, Geng Wa, the leader of the Dragon Staff Team, knelt on the ground and did not dare to look up at the emperor.
The emperor paced back and forth in the palace. His anger was as fierce and intense as a storm, frightening everyone else so much that they dared not breathe, and the entire palace fell into deathly silence.
The people of the emperor's faction had clearly prepared for this frame-up in advance.
Firstly, he arranged for the trustworthy former Astronomical Observer Guo Xun, a group of astronomy students and assassins, as well as someone who mixed in the crowd.
In order to promote the implementation of the plan, Yun Xiang also sent his daughter Yun Shirou to assist Guo Xun in blaming Yun Mujiu.
Unexpectedly, not only was Yun Shirou's image ruined and the attempt to frame Ye Mansion failed, but his good reputation as the prime minister was also slandered by Yun Mujiu.
Secondly, they also investigated a lot of information. Yun Mujiu was poisoned and seriously ill. Ye Xiaohan was concerned about Yun Mujiu's safety. Yun Mujiu was the best breakthrough point. Yun Mujiu was denounced, and Ye Xiaohan could not escape the blame.
The expected frame-up failed and the emperor and his men suffered a major setback instead.
"Your Majesty, the plan we came up with after careful consideration is indeed good, but we did not expect so many changes to occur." Geng Wa quietly observed the emperor's expression and said carefully: "The changes mainly occurred in Princess Ye. She is not stupid, but rather smart, and knows some martial arts..."
"More importantly, Princess Ye knows medical skills. She diagnosed the source of the people's poisoning and saved them in public. This is what broke the story that she is a witch."
Another person continued, "Yes, Your Majesty. If Yun Mujiu hadn't identified the poison, we wouldn't have been able to find a breakthrough according to our plan."
The person who spoke was Zhao Guang, who had recently served as the captain of the guards in the Dragon Staff Team.
A group of death warriors led by Zhao Guang were wiped out, leaving only Zhao Guang alive to report back. The emperor asked him to atone for his sins and temporarily retain Zhao Guang's position.
Everyone in the room fell into deep thought.
According to Yun Mujiu's personality, their carefully formulated plan should be flawless.
The poison beads thrown by Guo Xun alone were enough to poison Yun Mujiu and turn him into a monster.
In addition, there were Guo Xun, Tian Wensheng, and other agents who incited the masses to confront Yun Mujiu. With Yun Mujiu's previous eloquence and IQ, he would not be able to deal with it easily.
The emperor's anger subsided a little. He put his hands behind his back and turned to look at the person kneeling on the ground.
The emperor's angry eyes shot straight at Prime Minister Yun, "Prime Minister Yun, Yun Mujiu is your good daughter! Is this the daughter you taught?"
He now suspected that Yun Xiang was Ye Xiaohan's man, and that the father and daughter were teaming up to trick him!
Yun Xiang wanted to cry but had no tears. Earlier, he and the emperor had discussed marrying Yun Mujiu to Ye Xiaohan to make things difficult for him! But now Yun Mujiu had suddenly transformed herself and became Ye Xiaohan's capable assistant.
If he had known this day would come, he would never have reminded the emperor to grant a marriage to Yun Mujiu and Ye Xiaohan.
He would choose to kill Yun Mujiu directly to eliminate the trouble once and for all.
Yun Xiang's eyes widened with shock, and he cried out loudly:
"Your Majesty, I don't know! Yun Mujiu, this evil girl, has always been stupid and has not changed at all over the years. I really don't know why she seems to have become a different person!"
Yun Xiang kowtowed several times and then looked up at the emperor.
His tears streamed down his face, and he looked very sad, as if he was also a complete victim.
"She has lived in the Yun Mansion for many years, and she knows her personality very well. It turns out that she disguised herself so well that even I was fooled by her!"
The emperor stared at Yun Xiang's expression and saw that Yun Xiang was in tears and his nose was running. He did not have the bearing of a prime minister at all.
Yun Xiang has been with him for many years, and he has already found out all the details about him.
Moreover, Ye Xiaohan's arrogant personality will not allow him to take the initiative to poach people, and Yun Xiang probably doesn't dare to betray the king of a country.
The emperor believed it a little, "Have you ever asked someone to teach Yun Mujiu medical skills?"
"Your Majesty, no. Yun Mujiu has been naughty since she was young. She only cared about having fun. She has never learned anything."
The emperor didn't understand. "How did Yun Mujiu suddenly become a doctor? Is she really the original Yun Mujiu?"
Yun Xiang sniffed, hesitated for a moment, and chose his words carefully: "Yun Mujiu should not have been replaced. Her appearance, voice, and figure are exactly the same as before. The birthmark on her face did not change at all before and after she was granted marriage."
The emperor pressed his temples, recalling the time he saw Yun Mujiu in the palace a few days ago.
At that time, Yun Mujiu was as dull as usual. She first complained to him and the queen childishly about the prince's lack of manners. Then she kept complaining about the various difficulties she had in adapting to the Ye Mansion after marriage.
Yun Mujiu dismissed the servants who came as dowry at the Yun Mansion, declined Yun Shirou's visit to the Ye Mansion, and politely received Nanny Pei. He believed that Ye Xiaohan was the one who instructed him in everything, and Yun Mujiu just followed his instructions.
But Yun Mujiu's various behaviors today definitely did not seem like Ye Xiaohan had planned what Yun Mujiu was going to do behind the scenes.
Even if Ye Xiaohan had made some preparations in advance, he could not accurately predict what would happen in front of the Ye Mansion.
The emperor felt like his head was about to split open.
Ye Xiaohan hasn't been eliminated yet, and here comes another weird Yun Mujiu! And they are a couple, standing on the opposite side of him.
"Geng Wa, arrange for some people from the Dragon Staff Team to investigate Yun Mujiu. Even if it means digging deep underground, you must find out the reason for Yun Mujiu's transformation!"
"Yes, I obey!"
Yun Xiang raised his sleeves and quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The emperor turned his head to look at Yun Xiang, who immediately stopped what he was doing, bent over, and did not dare to look directly at the emperor.
“As for Yun Xiang, you should also cooperate with the Dragon Staff Team to investigate Yun Mujiu. Maybe you can find some clues from the Yun Mansion.”
Yun Xiang nodded and flattered, "I will obey your orders and live up to your grace!"
The emperor glanced at Yun Xiang, nodded with satisfaction, and said in a dignified tone: "This is the best."
