Beautiful girl travels through time and space to become a princess
Chapter 56: Inside the Palace
Lin Yuwei slowly opened her eyes and asked weakly, "What's the situation outside?"
The maid quickly replied: "Princess, the attack of the cultists has been repelled, and the immortals have come to help, and they are now investigating the matter."
Lin Yuwei struggled to get up, and the palace maid hurried to support her.
"I'm going to meet the national master and the immortals." Lin Yuwei said.
When they arrived at the main hall, the imperial master and the immortals all showed gratified expressions when they saw Lin Yuwei.
After Lin Yuwei sat down, she said, "Since we have discovered that someone in the court is colluding with the cult, we must speed up the process of finding this person."
The Imperial Master nodded: "Princess, what you said is very true, but this matter needs to be carefully considered and we must not alert the enemy."
Everyone began to discuss the specific plan.
It was decided to start with the officials who had dealings with the cult as recorded in the account books, and secretly investigate their whereabouts and daily activities.
At the same time, the palace increased its security to prevent the cult from attacking again.
Although Lin Yuwei has not fully recovered, she insists on participating in the investigation. She analyzes clues with the national teacher and others, not missing any details.
After several days of secret investigation, they gradually narrowed in on several officials who were most suspicious.
One of them is the Minister of Revenue, who has been behaving strangely recently and often goes in and out of mysterious places late at night.
Lin Yuwei decided to follow him personally.
One night, the Minister of Revenue went out quietly again, and Lin Yuwei followed carefully with a few of his trusted followers.
The Shangshu walked into a remote house, and Lin Yuwei and others were waiting outside.
After a while, a fierce quarrel was heard in the yard.
Lin Yuwei quietly approached the window, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation inside.
I only heard the Minister of Revenue say: "The failure of this operation is all your fault!"
Another voice sounded: "Humph, if it weren't for your incompetence, how could this happen?"
Lin Yuwei's heart tightened, and she was sure that there were important clues here.
She signaled her cronies to prepare to rush in.
At this moment, a strange noise suddenly came from the house, followed by a cloud of black smoke.
Lin Yuwei and others didn't care about anything else and rushed into the house.
The Minister of Revenue was seen lying on the ground, dead, and the person who had quarreled with him had disappeared.
"Damn it, he got away!" Lin Yuwei said angrily.
Just as they were about to search the house further, an alarm suddenly sounded outside.
"Oh no, Princess, something happened in the palace!" said a confidant.
Lin Yuwei and others hurried back to the palace.
It turned out that the cult took advantage of their absence to investigate and organized another attack.
There was chaos in the palace and the soldiers were fighting hard.
Lin Yuwei immediately joined the battle and fought against the cult members together with the soldiers.
The immortals also cast spells to assist in the defense.
Thanks to everyone's efforts, the attack by the cult members was repelled again.
But the palace also suffered considerable damage.
Lin Yuwei sat on the ground tiredly, her heart full of worries.
"Who is the mastermind behind this? Why is it so difficult to deal with?" Lin Yuwei murmured to herself.
At this time, the national teacher came over.
"Princess, don't worry. We will find out the truth and completely eradicate the cult." The national teacher comforted.
Lin Yuwei stood up, her eyes firm: "That's right, we must not let their conspiracy succeed."
After this incident, they realized that their opponent was very cunning and knew every move of the palace.
"Is there a traitor among us?" an immortal asked.
Everyone looked at each other, and there was a hint of vigilance in their hearts.
Lin Yuwei decided to secretly check the people around her.
During the investigation, she found that the behavior of a palace maid was very suspicious.
This palace maid always avoided people's gaze and looked panicked.
Lin Yuwei continued to observe her calmly.
One day, Lin Yuwei deliberately revealed a false action plan in front of the palace maid.
Sure enough, before long, the cult members' actions seemed to echo this fake plan.
Lin Yuwei was certain that this palace maid was the traitor.
She designed to capture the palace maid and interrogate her.
The palace maid refused to admit it at first, but in the face of Lin Yuwei's majesty and evidence, she finally confessed the truth.
It turned out that she was threatened by a mysterious man and had to pass on information for the cult.
But she didn't know the true identity of the mysterious man.
The clues were interrupted again, and Lin Yuwei fell into deep thought...
