"Are you sure you didn't see or hear it wrong? Did the First Rank Lady really order Zhou Zhian's body to be put into the dung bucket?" Princess Ziyun didn't believe it at all.

"Princess, I was standing at the very front and could see and hear everything very clearly." The person who reported the incident responded cautiously.

Princess Ziyun still couldn't believe it. How could a young woman come up with such a sinister idea?

This time, she came to marry Xue Wenyu. Knowing that his wife was a first-rank lady, she was not afraid of her power.

But sinister people are easier to deal with than powerful ones.

Because with this kind of person, you can't predict her plans and thoughts.

As the saying goes, don't be afraid of gentlemen, be afraid of villains!

Princess Ziyun believed that in her own country, no matter how favored she was, she would not dare to act recklessly in an occasion like the Meridian Gate today. How dare that woman!

Her courage means she has someone to rely on, so who does she rely on?

Judging from what her subordinates just said, she relies on the current monarch of Yan State and the Duke Xue Wen Ning.

These two can be said to be the most powerful people in Yan State, and they are like father and son.

With these two as his backers, what are his chances of winning against that woman?

But, just give up like this? Go back to Yunning Kingdom in disgrace? What will be waiting for you when you go back? You will be looked down upon and ridiculed! You will never be able to raise your head again!

No, we must not allow that to happen.

She was determined to marry Xue Wenyu. Even if it didn't work out, she would never let him and his wife have an easy life.

Love between husband and wife? True love between people? Haha, those don't exist!

"Go, arrange for someone to go down and investigate the matter of that woman thoroughly. The more thoroughly the better." Princess Ziyun said.

The subordinates did not dare to refute or ask more questions, and they responded and retreated quickly.

Mu Yingbao didn't know that from that day on, she, a first-rank lady, had another nickname in Yan State besides the miraculous doctor: the God-damaging Lady!

Killing a person is not enough, even the corpse is not let go easily.

When children in some families are naughty and disobedient, the adults will scare them fiercely: "If you don't behave, I will send you to the First Rank Lady."

How could a child know anything? He just heard the adults talking about Lady Yipin and their expressions and tones sounded very scared, so in his mind, he equated Lady Yipin with the big bad wolf on the mountain.

Of course, there are also those who are smart and not easy to fool, and they will immediately question the adults, didn't you say that the first-rank lady is a bodhisattva who came to earth to help the poor?

The adult paused and then explained that Madam Yipin hated disobedient children the most.

So, when Mu Yingbao often snored, he would wonder if he had a cold? Or was he allergic to something?

However, the spring flowers haven’t bloomed yet, and there are no allergens!

The maids in the Yangxin Palace heard about the incident outside the Meridian Gate that night.

EB

It turned out that my wife's visit was not in vain. Not only did she make the former emperor so angry that he vomited blood, but she also soaked his corpse in the whistle.

The maids looked at their mistress with more admiration in their eyes, even more than worshipping their master. The mistress was really too talented!

After Brother Hui woke up, everyone felt that something had changed about him, but they couldn't tell what it was.

I can only say that I am more energetic than before.

After executing Zhou Zhian, Hui Ge did not meet with the Yunning Kingdom's delegation again, and the delegation members did not ask to see him.

But Brother Hui had arranged people to keep a close eye on the movements of everyone in the delegation. He always felt that the princess was going to stir up trouble targeting his mother.

&nbssp;Sure enough, they found out that the princess had ordered people to investigate her mother, and even went to the place where her mother was born and raised.

Brother Hui was very disdainful. So many people went there to investigate his mother's background, but what have they found out so far? Just because you are from other countries, can you be more powerful than those people?

In Hui's heart, it doesn't matter what secrets his mother has. He only knows that his mother treats him well.

That evening, Mu Yingbao planned to prepare dinner on time. She felt worried when she saw that the third uncle came back with a tired look on his face.

We arranged for people to go all over the country to check, and the results were disastrous; 65 percent of officials in the country had problems to one degree or another.

Brother Hui issued an order that those who committed crimes should not be punished with one blow, and those whose mistakes were not too serious should be punished severely.

The most troublesome thing is that the qualified rate of river dams in various places is also extremely low. When Zhou Zhian was in office, a lot of funds were allocated for this purpose, but unfortunately, after being plundered by officials at all levels, there was little left in the hands of local officials. It was impossible to build qualified dams with that little money.

When you meet a greedy local official, he will take more money even though he knows that the money he has received is already a piece of meatless bone.

The most outrageous thing is that the river embankment in one county has not been built at all.

When the higher-ups came to inspect, the local officials got a pretty young widow to drink with them. They got the officials drunk and then helped them to the riverside for inspection.

The dam does exist when viewed from a distance, but if you look closely you will see the pavilion.

Because those sections of the embankment were simply made of mud and covered with paper on the outside, from a distance with drunken eyes, they looked like newly built granite embankments.

The reason why no one in the capital city knows about this incident until now is because that place is lucky and has never had a flood.

The local county magistrate was also very depressed. Does the newly appointed emperor have a lot of free time? Yan State is so big, there should be a lot of things to do in a big place, right? Why did they arrange for an inspection envoy to come here?

Moreover, they are all out of touch with the world. There is no chance to win them over, and there is no way to bribe them. They simply won't see you.

After some investigation, he replied directly to the capital.

According to Brother Hui's instructions, such a daring and greedy person who doesn't care about the lives of the people will be executed on the spot once he is found guilty, without having to wait until the autumn to be executed.

According to Mu Yingbao, if we don't kill this kind of people, it would be a waste of food!

"Mom, it smells so good." Brother Hui changed into his dragon robe, went into the kitchen and sniffed hard.

The three of them sat down, opened the lid of the copper pot in the middle of the table, and saw the mutton bubbling in the soup.

"You've all been working hard lately, so I'll give you some nourishment." Mu Yingbao said as he unloaded a roast duck from the oven next door, tore it into pieces and put it on a plate for them.

Steamed guppy, braised duck tongue, shredded chicken with bean sprouts, sweet and sour radish cubes, and carp stewed with tofu.

Looking at the delicious food on the table in front of them, they asked Mu Yingbao to sit down quickly, and then they couldn't wait to start eating.

"Eat slowly, really, you are the king of a country." Mu Yingbao felt heartbroken when he saw the child was scalded by the mutton in the copper pot.

"Eat slowly, really, you are the king of a country." Mu Yingbao felt heartbroken when he saw the child was scalded by the mutton in the copper pot.

Brother Hui laughed and said, "Mother, this is at home. I am the son of you and father, and the great-grandson of my great-grandfather. There is no emperor here."

"You're so funny." Mu Yingbao picked up a piece of eel for him.

"By the way, Princess Ziyun sent me an invitation today, inviting me to meet her at the restaurant tomorrow." Mu Yingbao suddenly thought of it and told her.

The three men who were enjoying their meal stopped eating at about the same time and looked at her. Yes, they were so busy recently that they forgot about the princess matter.

"What do you think? Should I go or not?" Mu Yingbao asked everyone democratically.
