The sudden death of the palace maid

After returning to the mansion, Guo Kang regretted that he should not have agreed to Pei Mo so easily.

But no matter how upset he was, it was a done deal. The words he spoke were like water thrown out and could never be taken back. What else could he do, he could only follow Pei Mo's method.

After the investigation, Guo Kang had to praise Pei Mo. He didn't expect that Pei Mo, a military general, was more thoughtful than ordinary civil servants. He was afraid that he would catch up with Bao Qingtian who solved the case!

It turned out that according to Pei Mo's request, Guo Kang actually found some suspicious people.

Not long ago, a case of corruption between the Huo family and the current queen was investigated. The impact of this case was far more serious than Guo Kang thought. In the past few days, there was bloodshed all the time in the palace.

In the eyes of outsiders, the only people who were beheaded were members of the Huo family, officials big and small who collaborated with the Huo family, and officials who supervised and supervised the execution of the Lu family.

But only those who are in the center of the whirlpool know that these people are not the only ones bleeding. There are people who are specific enough to be named, and there are also little minions who are so vague that they don't even have names.

The emperor was furious when he learned the truth about Ru Fei's death and issued several decrees one after another.

All palace servants who have served as servants in the middle palace will be executed, all servants and maids of the Huo family will be beheaded, and all those who have received favors from the Huo family will be executed with a cane, including servants released from the Huo family and slaves married out.

, as long as they could find written records, they were all arrested and awaiting punishment.

Not only that, even the eunuchs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were beaten to death, just because the emperor felt that someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs must be delivering the news and covering up Huo Lianjun. Otherwise, how could this bitch have been covering the sky in the palace for so long?

!

Therefore, there were a lot of maids and eunuchs missing in the palace. There was not enough manpower, so they had to look for them from outside the palace. Guo Kang found out that just two days before the emperor coughed up blood, a new batch of palace attendants happened to come to the palace.

Pei Mo really got it right!

Guo Kang's face was solemn and he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

The deputy general beside him saw the commander fell silent and asked, "Commander, is there something wrong?"

Guo Kang narrowed his sharp eyes and pointed at a row of names on the list, "Why don't these people have detailed household registration records? Ask the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs how dare they put these unidentified people

Recruited?"

"yes."

The lieutenant general got the order and started busy.

Guo Kang stayed where he was. The light outside the house, which was not too warm, shone sparsely and brokenly on the ground through the papered window. Fine dust could be faintly seen floating in the air, making the whole room so peaceful.

Guo Kang snorted coldly and slammed the file on his hand on the case. There was a muffled sound, a burst of smoke and dust, and the smell of rotten wood suddenly filled the room.

"There really is someone behind the scenes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Kang pressed the hilt of his knife and strode out of the house with a cold aura, and the silence on his face was like the calm before a rainstorm.

Not long after, the deputy general brought new news.

"Commander, we found out that one of the new batch of palace servants has a palace maid whose household registration document is fake!"

Boom!

Guo Kang's knife hilt hit the chair, and the muffled sound resonated with his heart at the same time, like the first drumbeat of a war without gunpowder.

"Let me take a look." He reached out and took the paper from the deputy general's hand and looked at it carefully. "You are so bold. You can even get the private seal of the government. It seems that the person behind this has a big plan."

It turned out that what Guo Kang had in his hand was the fake household registration document. Generally, household registration documents would be stamped with the seal of the local government, but the seal on the document in his hand was not fake, but the words on it were fake.

Usually documents are stamped after they are written, with the red stamp falling on top of the black words, but the one he held in his hand was stamped first and then written.

It is very likely that a gangster sneaked into the government office and secretly stamped the seal on the paper, and only later added the text.

"Come, come with me to Yeting and bring this palace maid to justice!"

Guo Kang stood up and shouted vigorously, and soon a group of people gathered.

When the Imperial Guard acted, they generally did not need to report to others. The Emperor specifically allowed them the right to kill first and report later. Of course, if the Imperial Guard handled the matter without consideration and arrested someone who was originally innocent, then the Emperor would also ask them about their guilt.

A group of forbidden troops wearing black armor and carrying swords on their waists went straight into Yeting to arrest people. This formation attracted many servants to look at them.

The life of the servants in the palace is boring, and their usual pastimes are playing cards or gossiping.

Soon, the news reached Li Fuquan's ears. Li Fuquan banged his head. The last time the Forbidden Army had such a big battle, they were ordered to arrest the slaves of the East Palace. It didn't take long before they started arresting people again. Why did they start arresting people again?

Know what happened.

Thinking about it, Li Fuquan reported the news to the emperor.

The emperor was a little surprised when he found out, but he thought that the commander of the imperial army would come to report to him soon, so he was not so eager to know what happened, so he waved his hand to signal Li Fuquan to retreat.

However, the imperial army that surrounded Yeting arrived a step too late.

"What did you say, this palace maid is dead?"

Guo Kang's face was full of disbelief. He stared closely at the eunuch in charge, "When did this palace maid die and what was the cause of her death?"

The eunuch in charge was frightened by his glaring face, his body shook like a sieve, and he hesitated, "Your Majesty, this palace maid died last night. The body was taken to be burned this morning. She died suddenly.

I don’t know what the cause of death is..."

Guo Kang was furious, grabbed the eunuch by the collar and asked him, "You don't know? You didn't know, so you took the eunuch and burned him?"

What a bastard, Guo Kang thought through gritted teeth.

"Asshole!"

When Guo Kang reported to the emperor, the emperor also cursed in the same way.

"Why did a perfectly fine palace maid die so violently?" The emperor was angry, his sleeves fluttering, "Li Fuquan, how do people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs do things? Why do you want to recruit an unknown person into the palace?

!”

"Where is Jingzhao Yin? I want to ask him whether he has taken good care of the official seal and why it can appear so casually on a fake household registration document!"

"It's really bad luck. Such an unlucky thing has happened to me before I've even recovered. No, I'm going to take a bath and burn incense tonight. Li Fuquan, prepare water and burn incense to remove the bad luck for me!"

The emperor had no intention of reading the memorial, so he threw away the memorial and went to take a bath.

An abnormality was detected, and now Guo Kang really believed Pei Mo. He sent a letter to Pei Mo by flying pigeons all night, and took over the task of brewing and delivering medicine to the emperor from the eunuch according to his wishes.

It's not just that the layers of protection from the Forbidden Army have taken effect, the emperor's body is recovering visibly.
