I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Hearing that there was a worst-case scenario, not only Ning Zhiyi, but everyone present became interested.

【What else? 】

The system's tone was slightly sad. [The emperor's private vault does not have much silver. Most of it is rare jade, calligraphy and paintings, and precious porcelain. In order to raise silver, the emperor put everything in his private vault outside the palace to sell! ]

[He had to resort to reselling things to collect enough money for disaster relief. This is truly the poorest emperor this system has ever seen.]

Eunuch Quanzhi shuddered, this was directed at him!

He knelt down beside Emperor Mu Wu and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you know that I am the most tight-lipped. I didn't say anything!"

Everyone: Very good, the authenticity of the matter has been verified.

Emperor Mu Wu looked straight ahead, without any trace of guilt or embarrassment on his face, and said in a relaxed tone: "I don't understand what you are saying."

After thinking for a moment, he tried to cover up his mistake and said, "I don't understand a single thing."

Everyone:......

Life is not easy, the emperor plays dumb!

The ministers exchanged glances, calculating in their minds. The Crown Prince turned around with a warm and gentle smile on his face, "I don't know if you gentlemen can keep your mouth shut. If you need my help to keep your mouth shut, please let me know. I will definitely cure your death with poison!"

All adults: This is a threat, a naked threat!

But who isn't a hero who knows the times? Everyone expressed their opinions.

"Hey, why am I deaf? I can't hear anything with my ears."

Several others echoed, "Yeah, I can't hear it either. What happened just now?"

"No, nothing happened, and we didn't hear anything."

Upon hearing this, the prince smiled even more, "Very good, I hope you all can supervise each other, today's matter is top secret, if anyone spreads it, they will be held jointly responsible!"

The Minister of Rites followed the prince's gaze and discovered the flaw. Why did it feel like the prince was not trying to silence them for His Majesty, but was trying to silence Ning Zhiyi?

Those who can hold high positions in the officialdom are all shrewd people. They also followed the prince's gaze and saw Ning Zhiyi.

They understood. They understood.

In order to show how much he valued Shu Guiren, Ning Zhiyi gave her the highest treatment, and other palace maids were buried from the feet up.

But Shu Guiren was different. She buried her body from the beginning.

The freshly fertilized soil, with its charming fragrance, dripped onto Shu Guiren's face, and some of it slid into her slightly open lips.

"Ugh, it stinks!"

Attacked by the stench, Shu Guiren opened her big, stinking eyes and found herself lying in the foul-smelling soil.

The next moment, a scream resounded through the clear sky, "Ah!"

The armored hands were shaking, "Ning Zhiyi, you bitch, how dare you do this to me? Just wait, the Imperial Concubine will not let you go!"

Ning Zhiyi: "I don't want to listen, you are just a turtle chanting sutras."

"Stop it! You still dare to bury the soil! Stop it now!"

Shu Guiren shouted to stop them, but unfortunately the man wielding the shovel didn't listen at all. He even swung harder, and soil flew all over the sky. The charming smell spread far away.

The second prince rolled his eyes and pulled Ning Yuanze over, looking heavy-hearted, "Master, please ask this girl to stop. If you don't stop, she's going to suffocate me to death."

Ning Yuanze's face was wooden, and he said helplessly: "Your Highness, do you think I can control her?"

The second prince was silent. Well, if the chief prince could control Ning Zhiyi, she would not have been treated so badly before.

Shu Guiren was howling like a ghost, while Ning Zhiyi was laughing arrogantly, the two formed a sharp contrast.

[You are such a bad mouth, you should just eat more stinky dirt! Your whole family lives under the protection of His Majesty, and you still dare to curse the Emperor with your mistress. ]

[If it weren't for your Majesty's efforts to govern the country, an idiot like you with a missing cerebellum and a damaged brain would have starved to death long ago. You are a typical person who eats with a bowl in hand and curses when you put it down! ]

Ning Zhiyi clapped his hands and looked down at Shu Guiren in the pit, feeling extremely happy!

"Just enjoy it! This is specially prepared for you by me."

Shu Guiren was so angry that she gnashed her teeth, but she could do nothing about it.

At this time, a crow flew by and happened to drop a pile of shit, which hit Concubine Shu on the forehead.

Concubine Shu was in tears, as this was simply adding insult to injury.

Ning Zhiyi saw the situation and burst into laughter.

Shu Guiren wanted to curse loudly, but she happened to see Emperor Mu Wu and his entourage not far away. She swallowed the curse that was about to come out of her mouth, and the beauty shed tears and sobbed:

"Your Majesty, please come and save me. I am about to be bullied to death."

"It's all her fault. She committed treason and had no respect for the inferiors. Your Majesty, please punish Ning Zhiyi severely!"

Emperor Mu Wu did not speak, his expression uncertain.

Concubine Shu didn't notice anything unusual and continued chattering.

"See you, my father. Long live my father. Long live my father."

Knowing that her chance to show off had come, the Seventh Princess walked out from the side.

Emperor Mu Wu nodded and signaled the Seventh Princess to stand up. Seeing the Seventh Princess, Shu Guiren was overjoyed. She looked at Ning Zhiyi with resentment. This little bitch couldn't escape.

Thinking that she and the Seventh Princess were both in the Imperial Concubine's camp, she firmly believed that the Seventh Princess would stand on her side and asked:

"How long has the Seventh Princess been here? Have you seen how Ning Zhiyi bullied me?"

"I have been here for a long time. I have seen the whole process."

"Your Majesty, you heard it, right? The Seventh Princess is a witness. She can prove that it was Ning Zhiyi who murdered me."

The Seventh Princess objected, "Shu Guiren, please don't confuse right and wrong. It was you who arranged for the maids to catch Ba and Miss Ning first. Miss Ning had to fight back to protect herself."

"You are in this situation now because you are useless."

No one expected the Seventh Princess to say this. Concubine Shu stood there in a daze. The Crown Prince and others were also stunned. The Seventh Princess always followed the Imperial Concubine's lead. How could she be so sensible today?

"The princess is still sensible."

"But it was indeed me who buried Concubine Shu. Please punish me, Your Majesty." Even though he was caught red-handed, Ning Zhiyi did not deny that he had buried Concubine Shu.

[Humph, in order to help the imperial concubine retain her favor, Concubine Shu gave the emperor aphrodisiacs in her later years. I just regret that I didn't beat him lightly just now. I'll find an opportunity to beat him up again next time I enter the palace.]

Emperor Mu Wu's eyes were slightly warm, and he looked at Ning Zhiyi with a smile in his eyes. The words he uttered made Concubine Shu turn pale.
