The queen is spoiling the king and madly criticizing him for spoiling her

"Wen Zhu." With Xie Ci'an's call, Wen Zhu, who was guarding outside, immediately appeared.

Xie Ci'an handed the letter to Wen Zhu and said, "Go and check whether this matter is true. Also, ask Shuangjiang to check how this letter came to me and who wrote it."

[This was written by Liang Mo from the Qiunan Academy in Qingzhou.]

Liang Mo bribed a minor official under the Chief Censor and secretly placed the letter among the Chief Censor's memorials. I didn't even notice where it fell out.

Qingzhou is not far from Baitong Academy in Fanyang. It's not difficult for Liang Mo to know a little about Baitong Academy. However, in order to compete for the position of Yousong Academy, he even brought it to the emperor's attention. This person is quite cunning.

Liang Mo's reports were all true. Du Chao and his friend Wu Luo were competing for the position of headmaster of Baitong Academy. Both were popular candidates, but the former headmaster favored Du Chao's Wu Luo. Du Chao knew Wu Luo had a better chance of winning than he did, so he hatched a plan. He bribed a prostitute to pose as a decent woman, drugged Wu Luo, and then took him to an inn to have sex.

The next day, Du Chao and his men went to the inn to catch the adulterer. When they broke into the guest room, they saw the two lying on the same bed. Wu Luo was completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened. The woman beside him kept crying, saying that Wu Luo had forced her to the inn and raped her, and she even threatened to report it to the police.

Wu Luo's family was wealthy businessmen. They had originally planned to marry the girl and take her home to comfort her. After all, the selection for the headmaster was imminent, and they absolutely couldn't afford to let anything go wrong at this time. However, a group of soldiers happened to pass by on the street. After hearing the girl's sobbing, they took Wu Luo to the government office without hesitation. With the girl's and Du Chao's confessions, Wu Luo was quickly convicted and imprisoned.

【How could there be such a coincidence in the world? 】

Du Chao had bribed the government officials ahead of time to patrol the area. Upon hearing the noise, they immediately went over and apprehended Wu Luo as quickly as possible. They were so anxious to convict him that they had no time to find other evidence to prove his innocence.

After Wu Luo was captured, Du Chao eliminated his biggest competitor and ignored the rest. He was successfully elected as the dean of Baitong Academy. After being elected, Du Chao immediately dealt with the brothel girl to prevent her from making any mistakes. After all, the brothel girl could be bribed by him to slander Wu Luo, and she could also be bribed by Wu Luo to tell the truth.

Du Chao was truly a ruthless man. He eliminated his rival with lightning speed, and then immediately murdered the brothel girl to silence her, simply because he was afraid of the truth being exposed.

Du Chao probably never imagined that playing with hawks all day would end up being blinded by one.

[However, the brothel girl who was silenced by Du Chao had a good friend from her time at Yihong Courtyard. She has not given up on collecting evidence and is helping her catch the real culprit.]

If someone like Du Chao becomes the principal of Yousong Academy, it will be another disaster for Yousong Academy. Fortunately, the emperor has ordered an investigation into this matter, and it won't be long before the truth is revealed.

Wu Luo was held in the government for six months before his family, having spent all their wealth, rescued him from prison. He has not been seen since. If this matter is to be redressed, the only way to find him, besides the murdered brothel girl, is to find Wu Luo himself.

After being rescued from prison, Wu Luo remained depressed. With his parents' guidance, he finally realized that the incident had been a frame-up, and the only person who could have framed him was someone running for the chancellorship. So, Wu Luo changed his name and went to work as a janitor at Baitong Academy, trying to gather evidence from Du Chao's circle. He finally found a clue.

[They were still good friends after all, how could Du Chao not notice? ]

Wu Luo's parents, fearing further trouble, paid to have Wu Luo released. Afterward, the government reported that Wu Luo had died suddenly in prison. Du Chao believed it and didn't investigate, so he naturally didn't know Wu Luo was still alive. Wu Luo took this opportunity to gather evidence to bring Du Chao down.

Du Chao possessed considerable influence in Fanyang, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to bring him down so easily through the government. Even if he had evidence, he wouldn't have acted rashly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to bring Du Chao down, and he might even have risked his own life. So Wu Luo had been waiting, waiting for an opportunity. Unexpectedly, it came so soon. The Emperor wanted to select deans to be transferred to the capital, and Du Chao was among them. Wu Luo felt that perhaps coming to the capital was an opportunity. After all, Du Chao was only somewhat capable locally, but the capital was different. It was the center of imperial power. No matter how rich or capable Du Chao was, he couldn't completely control everything.

This time, Wu Luo used the same method to murder Du Chao, letting him also experience the pain of being reported. So, he secretly contacted Liang Mo of Qiunan Academy and told him about this matter. Wu Luo not only contacted Qiunan, but also Yunkai, Bogu, and the various deans of Chunqiu Academy. He didn't believe that these people would remain indifferent to such a big handle. As long as someone was tempted, he could use this opportunity to bring bad luck to them.

Unexpectedly, Liang Mo contacted Wu Luo first, and Wu Luo used Liang Mo's hand to attack Du Chao. Although he was unsure of Liang Mo's methods, he could only gamble on people's hearts. Anyone would be tempted by Yousong Academy.

Wu Luo is currently staying at the Suzaku Street Inn. He wants to witness Du Chao's downfall over this matter.

"I think the person who wrote the letter of complaint is very suspicious. If we follow this clue of the person who wrote the letter to investigate further, we might be able to find out other things." Gu Jianchu gave Xie Ci'an a slight reminder.

"What the Queen said is absolutely right. I will order someone to investigate now." Xie Ci'an immediately ordered Chongfeng to investigate from Liang Mo on down, and also asked Eunuch Huang to prepare a palace banquet at Jinming Lake, inviting the presidents and wives of all the academies to come and visit in the name of the Queen.

Gu Jianchu didn't know why the emperor made such arrangements, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Gu Jianchu held his chin with his hand and looked at the man who was handling official business.

Xie Ci'an was so distracted by Gu Jianchu's gaze that he couldn't focus on his work. He put down the memorial in his hand and looked at the girl in front of him seriously. He raised his hand and gently pinched Gu Jianchu's nose, "Achu, why are you looking at me like this? Is there something on my face, or is it something you're thinking?"
