Seeing this, Chu Tianyu quickly rushed into the dense forest, trying to catch the assassin. At the same time, Su Mei, Lian Di, Li Lanxin and Tang Huiying immediately protected the emperor and appeased the other concubines and guards.

Li Yong was escorted back to the safe camp, his face gloomy: "These people are so bold that they dare to assassinate in the hunting grounds!"

Su Mei held Li Yong's hand and said gently, "Your Majesty, I believe we can find out the truth and protect your safety."

Li Yong nodded: "I will, Mei'er. Don't worry, I will find the mastermind behind this."

A few days later, after some investigation, Chu Tianyu brought back shocking news. He caught an assassin in the dense forest, and after torture, the assassin finally confessed that the person behind it was actually a minister in the palace - Shen Jiancheng.

Su Mei and several sisters were shocked. They knew that Shen Jiancheng held a very important position in the court, and it was unbelievable that he was involved in such a conspiracy.

When Li Yong heard the news, he was furious: "Shen Jiancheng has always been my trusted and important minister. I never thought he would dare to betray me!"

Su Mei advised: "Your Majesty, we need to investigate further to ensure that the evidence is solid and not to alert the enemy."

Li Yong nodded: "Mei'er is right, we must act carefully and make sure that no one takes advantage of the situation."

Just as Li Yong and Su Mei were investigating intensively, another earth-shattering event occurred in the palace. The assassin was assassinated in prison, the clues were temporarily interrupted, and the investigation came to a standstill.

After Su Mei discussed with Zhao Yating, Li Lanxin and Lian Di, they decided to continue starting from Chu Tianyu's background to see if they could find a new breakthrough.

After an in-depth investigation, they discovered that Chu Tianyu was not a simple imposter. He was a double agent planted in the palace, protecting the emperor on the one hand, but working for other forces on the other. Su Mei felt that the situation had become more complicated and they had to be more careful.

Su Mei decided to talk to Chu Tianyu in person to test his true intentions. She met Chu Tianyu in a secluded corner of the Imperial Garden.

"Guard Chu, can you tell me what your real identity is?" Su Mei asked bluntly.

Chu Tianyu smiled slightly: "Mei Liangyuan, your intuition is indeed sharp. I am indeed not an ordinary guard, but everything I do is to protect the emperor and this country."

Su Mei frowned slightly: "Then why are you connected with those conspirators?"

Chu Tianyu sighed: "I was forced to become a double agent in order to obtain higher-level intelligence. I did not really betray the emperor, but just to complete a more important mission."

Su Mei fell into deep thought. She knew that Chu Tianyu's words were credible to a certain extent, but she had to be more cautious. She decided to let Zhao Yating continue to monitor Chu Tianyu and at the same time strengthen the investigation of Shen Jiancheng.

A few days later, Zhao Yating brought an important news. She found that Shen Jiancheng had close ties with some rebel forces in southern Xinjiang, and their target was not only the emperor, but also the stability of the entire court.

After hearing this, Su Mei's heart trembled: "It seems that our enemies are more powerful than we thought. We must take action as soon as possible and not let their conspiracy succeed."

Zhao Yating nodded: "Yes, sister, we must work closely together to ensure that their conspiracy can be exposed in time."

Su Mei decided to discuss with Li Yong, deploy defenses in advance, and secretly arrest Shen Jiancheng and his accomplices.

That night, Su Mei came to the imperial study and reported the latest situation to Li Yong in detail. After hearing this, Li Yong's face darkened: "These people are so daring, I will never let them go!"

Su Mei held Li Yong's hand and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I believe we can defeat these enemies and protect the peace of the court."

Li Yong nodded: "I will, Mei'er. Don't worry, I will arrange the action immediately."

A few days later, Li Yong secretly arrested Shen Jiancheng and his accomplices and interrogated them strictly. As the interrogation deepened, a huge conspiracy network gradually surfaced. The rebellious forces in southern Xinjiang, the corrupt ministers in the court, and some internal contacts in the palace were all exposed one by one.

In the end, Shen Jiancheng was convicted, the corrupt forces in the court were eliminated, and the conspiracy in the palace was completely resolved. Su Mei, Lian Di, Li Lanxin, Zhao Yating and Alyssa worked together to protect the peace of the harem and won Li Yong's high trust and appreciation.
