Chapter 172 Welcome to Suzaku Life and Death Prison!(1/3)
The sponge sandalwood table was filled with cigarettes.
The Empress Dowager, wearing a gorgeous long dress, lowered her head to handle the official business on the case, with her expression focused, and her thin eyebrows were slightly frowning.
The tender white cheeks reveal a faint pink and orange color under the warm light.
If it weren't for the temperament of her body, she would look like a 28-year-old girl just looking at her appearance.
Compared to Meng Yanqing's enviable natural beauty, her face and skin rely entirely on acquired pure and exquisite care.
As the empress dowager who is powerful all over the world, no matter how beautiful the beauty is, others will take the initiative to offer it with care and attention.
The Tianchi Snow Soul Liquid of Yin and Yang Sect, the thousands of years of beauty ginseng in Yao Po...
Even the water that rinses his mouth on weekdays is carefully prepared by liquid beads oozing from the Arctic ice lotus, which truly makes him breathing like an orchid.
"Grinding, what are you doing?"
He looked up and saw Bai Xianyu standing beside him in a daze. The Empress Dowager knocked on the table with her pen.
Bai Xianyu came to his senses and quickly picked up the ink strips, injected water and grind them carefully. Because of distraction and worry, the ink stained her sleeves and didn't know.
"You girl, you weren't that stupid before."
Looking at Bai Xianyu's trance, the Empress Dowager put her pen on the inkstone and rubbed her snow-white wrist like a crane's neck.
Bai Xian's feathers bowed down: "Empress Dowager, Chen Mu..."
"Do you think he will be severely punished when he was arrested and imprisoned in the Xichang Edict Prison?"
The Empress Dowager asked.
Bai Xianyu thought about it and shook her head gently.
The Xichang Zhao Prison is as terrifying as the Ming Hygiene Prison, and anyone who enters must take off a layer of skin.
But Chen Mu had a special identity after all, and was the chief inspector of the Liusanmen and the Xuantian Department of the Demon Suppression Division. In addition, there was a complex relationship between the emperor and the empress dowager behind it, so those eunuchs could not be punished.
But without punishment does not mean that Chen Mu is very safe.
After all, my husband is on someone else's chassis and it is easy to miss it without anyone protecting him.
The empress dowager curled a sarcasm at the corner of her lips: "Seriously injured the official of the Ministry of Justice and beat the Chief Executive of the Inspectorate Affairs. Your husband has a very strong temper."
"he……"
Bai Xianyu didn't know how to explain to her husband.
Sometimes this guy is obviously very steady, but when he encounters certain things, he always makes amazing moves.
The Empress Dowager took out a letter from the thick official memorial book, opened it and said lightly:
"When in Qingyu County, Chen Mu cracked the Mu Xianger case, and Mu Erhe, the only alive sinner, was killed by Chen Mu in prison."
Bai Xianyu remained silent, and of course she knew about this.
Although there was no evidence at that time that Chen Mu proved that Mu Erhe was killed by his husband, anyone with a brain knew that the murderer was him.
The Empress Dowager smiled at the corner of her lips: "It is a taboo in the officialdom."
She stared at Bai Xianyu's beautiful eyes and said softly: "The reason why Chen Mu took over the case was because Gao Yuanchun, the magistrate of Qingyu County, planned to cultivate him and recommended him to Yu Tietou, the Minister of Justice. You know all this."
Bai Xianyu nodded gently: "Clear."
The Empress Dowager said: "Originally, Yu Tietou admired this kid very much, and even made a free position, intending to let Chen Mu follow him.
However, Chen Mu killed Mu Erhe because of his momentary intent.
It doesn't matter if a small prisoner kills him. But it reveals your husband's biggest problem, which is why Yu Tietou suddenly dislikes Chen Mu.
In the eyes of outsiders, Chen Mu and Yu Tietou are both the same type of people, and they are the impulsive and passionate people.
But the only difference is that Yu Tietou's impulse is brain-free. And your husband's impulse is pure brain-free."
When Bai Xianyu heard the queen mother belittle her husband, she lightly bit her cherry lips.
Looking at the girl's aggrieved expression, the queen mother was both angry and funny: "You girl doesn't like to listen to the words of the Ai family. It's right that your husband is smart, but it's not a contradiction to say that he has no brains.
The Ai family knows this, and His Majesty must know this.
After your husband solved the Ju Chunlou case, the situation was obviously unfavorable to Your Majesty, but Your Majesty still ignored the past and arranged positions for your husband to offer generous gifts.
Why?
Because he knows that your husband is very smart but has no brains, he... wants to praise him."
The empress dowager's eyes were full, and she bent her jade finger and squinted the table and said, "Just like this case of the Pingyang Palace, your husband seems to have made great contributions, but in fact he cannot get the reward for his official position. However, His Majesty resolutely promoted him to the position of chief inspector.
Do you really think that Your Majesty has a broad mind and admires Chen Mu very much, and wants to win him over?
Maybe he has this kind of thought, but more importantly, he needs Chen Mu to climb up as soon as possible, and then... make a brainless impulse to pull you and the Ai family in.
Your husband is very powerful. Before he could get up, he sent himself to the Xichangzhao Prison. I guess His Majesty was also confused."
Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager herself laughed.
The two big houses that were sunken under the neck also swayed with laughter, outlining the beautiful scenery that belongs to women alone.
Bai Xianyu couldn't laugh and begged: "Empress Dowager, how should this game be broken?"
The empress dowager bowed her head by picking up the pen: "It's simple to break it, but the Ai family doesn't want to help him. If your husband is really capable, he will pull himself out of the pit. Even if he is sentenced to death, he won't be killed. At most, he will be removed from his official position and be sentenced to one or two years in prison."
"The Queen Mother~"
Bai Xianyu's tone was filled with a bit of pleading and acting cute.
She had realized that Chen Mu's impulsive move also left a bad impression on the empress dowager.
"Xiao Yuer..."
The Empress Dowager raised her head and looked serious. "Among the four envoys of the Mingwei, Qinglong is the most indifferent and has no utilitarian intentions, which is why his strength is at the top.
The white tiger is harmless on the surface, but in fact it is the most cunning and wise. It always likes to hide behind the scenes and play with others and play with chess games.
As for Xuanwu, although he looks pretty, he is the stupidest one.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been sold by his third brother every time.
Count it, from childhood to adulthood, at least half of the time you slapped him in the face was for the third brother. Even though he wanted to kill Chen Mu last time in Qingyu County, he was fooled by his third brother.
As for you…”
The Queen Mother sighed softly: "You are not stupid, but you are not that smart either. Among the Four Envoys of the Underworld, you are the most ruthless and cold-blooded one.
But if you feel affection, it is like a volcano erupting, no one in the world can cut off your love.
When it comes to emotional matters, you are just a little smarter than Xuanwu. If Baihu hadn't stopped Heiling today, something really happened. Do you understand?"
"Xiao Yu understands." Bai Xianyu's expression was dim.
"You don't understand. If you understand, you won't come to Ai's house."
The queen mother smiled, relaxed her arms, and placed the sinking objects under her neck on the table to relieve the pressure on her shoulders, and said lightly.
"Go back, the Ai family can't help your husband in this matter, rely on him. If you want to help him, you can take action, but you have to use your brain."
After saying that, the Empress Dowager continued to deal with the piles of business and ignored her.
Bai Xianyu lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly.
——
Back at Zhuque Hall, Bai Xianyu waved the black lining.
"Check whether Eunuch Fang has any black material, dig it out for me!"
"Black material?"
Hei Ling hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile. "My subordinates have already investigated secretly, so Liangyun Gambling House has accepted some bribes, and the others cannot be found at all."
As the general manager of Kyoto Inspector Affairs, Eunuch Fang could not have any fatal handle to be caught by the enemy.
After all, it was at the foot of the emperor and his mind was not that stupid.
It is obviously impossible to try to seize Eunuch Fang with just one bribery charge. He must dig out the black material that makes him afraid.
"Where is Leng Tianying?" Bai Xianyu asked.
As a dog beside Eunuch Fang, Leng Tianying could at least dig out some.
Through him, you may be able to find the weaknesses of Eunuch Fang.
Hei Ling said helplessly: "It's difficult. Unless we arrest Leng Tianying and were sentenced to severely interrogate, it will be difficult to find out by relying solely on pure investigation."
Arrested and imprisoned...
Bai Xianyu fell into deep thought.
Leng Tianying is now a victim, and no case can be related to him. It is difficult to arrest him and interrogate him.
Even if you just knit a crime, it won’t work, after all, the other party is an official from the Ministry of Justice.
Unless this guy suddenly makes a fool of himself.
At this moment, a sound of eagle roaring came from the sky, which was the flying eagle used by the Nether Guard to convey information.
To be continued...
