The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

For three consecutive days, Liang Chongyue studied hard, occasionally listening to Yun Ling's reports on various trivial matters in the palace and the status of Concubine Lian in Jingyang Palace.

"Your Highness, Eunuch Li is here."

Liang Chongyue was still studying the contents of the booklet. He always felt that this section of the record was a bit cumbersome and wanted to replace it with a more colloquial sentence.

When Liang Chongyue heard Yun Ling bringing Li Jin in, he took his head away from the book, raised his eyes to look at Li Jin, and saw the item in his hand at a glance.

"Your Highness, this item has been completed. Please inspect it."

Yun Ling took the brocade-wrapped object from Li Jin's hand and handed it to His Highness.

Liang Chongyue opened it, and a palm-sized golden lock lay inside. The pattern was not complicated, and it was not the common pattern in Beijing. It also had a bit of old-fashioned look, like an old item from a few years ago. It matched the golden hairpin that Concubine Lian often wore.

"Eunuch Li is very thoughtful. I will go with Yunling to collect an extra month's allowance later."

Li Jin had long been accustomed to His Highness's generosity in rewarding people, just like the Empress.

"Your Highness, I thank you for your kindness. Your Highness, the Ministry of Punishment has sent word that the eunuch named Qiang has broken his leg and is dying. The imperial physician, Empress Lian, has already prescribed strong medicine, but it's been ineffective. I'm afraid he'll only live for two days."

Liang Chongyue took the golden lock to the low table nearby, reached out and took out the perfume powder that Concubine Lian liked to use from the cabinet next to her, sprinkled some on the golden lock, and then used an unused wolf hair brush to spread it. Finally, after checking the details to make sure that there was nothing forgotten, she wrapped the golden lock again with brocade and put it in the cabinet together with the perfume powder.

"Send someone to reattach his broken leg. Just make sure he can walk tomorrow."

"Yes, I understand."

"It's okay, everyone leave."

After Li Jin took the order and left, Yun Ling also followed suit. Liang Chongyue picked up the wolf hair brush and devoted herself to studying again. She looked so serious, as if nothing had happened and no one had ever disturbed her.

Today, he studied until late at night. He learned from Yunling that his scumbag father stayed in the Yuhe Palace today. Liang Chongyue walked out of the gate of Yiku Palace in his nightgown.

Her chest was bulging. These days, she was not only busy studying, but also painted several beautiful pictures of Concubine Lian in her spare time, imitating the painting style of Dai Viet.

In order to expose the secret between Concubine Lian and Wu Qiang, she went to great lengths.

After dodging the guards patrolling at night, Liang Chongyue headed straight for Jingyang Palace.

A few days ago, Li Jin replaced the palace maids serving in Lian Fei Palace. Now, except for Ye'er, who was Huang Wanyi's remaining confidant, everyone else in Lian Fei Palace was hers.

When Liang Chongyue arrived at Jingyang Palace, it was already late at night. Except for a few eunuchs on duty that night who were dozing off outside the palace, the entire Jingyang Palace was so quiet that only the chirping of cicadas could be heard.

Liang Chongyue groped his way to the lower room and blew smoke into it through the crack in the window. After a quarter of an hour, when he was sure that everyone inside was asleep, Liang Chongyue pushed the door open and walked in.

She had already seen the distribution map of the lower rooms of Jingyang Palace provided by the system, but Wu Qiang's original bed was occupied by another eunuch.

I think he felt that Concubine Lian's future was uncertain and Wu Qiang was imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. Unless Concubine Lian recovered overnight and rescued him, very few people could get out alive after being imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment. That's why he dared to be so bold.

Liang Chongyue found Wu Qiang's cabinet. The inside of the cabinet was tidy, but there were still signs of being rummaged through. It seemed that all the valuable things inside had been taken away.

Liang Chongyue stuffed the painting and gold lock in his arms into the corner of the cabinet, turned around and left the lower room. After closing the door, he returned the same way and returned to Yiku Palace.

The next morning, when Liang Chongyue was having dinner with her mother, Li Jin hurriedly walked in from outside.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, the eunuch surnamed Qiang from the Ministry of Punishment has escaped."

Liang Chongyue looked at the Queen Mother and saw a look of understanding in each other's eyes.

With the Queen Mother here, Liang Chongyue did not respond to Li Jin's words. After looking at the Queen Mother, Liang Chongyue picked up his favorite side dish and put it on the Queen Mother's plate. It was a tacit matter. There were no outsiders here, so there was no need to be too nervous.

Xiang Huayue put down the chopsticks in her hand, frowned slightly, and said to Li Jin:

"Send more people out to look for him. Your Majesty's birthday is coming soon, and every part of the palace is preparing for it. We can't let this eunuch ruin the celebration."

This plan was prepared early in the morning. After Li Jin heard the empress say this and bowed to withdraw, he took the chief eunuch of the Ministry of Punishment and a group of guards to arrest people throughout the palace.

Although it was not a big event, the matter still reached the ears of His Majesty.

When Liang Zhan changed out of his court robes and arrived at the Yiku Palace, Liang Chongyue had just finished breakfast with his mother when they heard Qi Deyuan's chanting of the ceremony. Almost at the same time, the calmness on their faces disappeared, and they both looked a little worried.

Liang Chongyue followed his mother to greet his scumbag father. When he saw his scumbag father walking in with an angry face, Liang Chongyue seemed to have seen his reaction after he found out that Concubine Lian had cheated on him.

It must have been the wrath of thunder that massacred the Jingyang Palace in blood.

"What's going on? Are the people in the Ministry of Punishment just there to do nothing? They actually let a eunuch escape from the Ministry of Punishment."

Liang Zhan sat at the top, his face filled with anger. Those old fogies at the morning court were urging him to appoint a crown prince, which delayed him for some time. As soon as the court was over and he changed out of his court robes, he heard that the eunuch serving Concubine Lian had escaped from the Ministry of Punishment.

If Qi Deyuan hadn't said this himself, Liang Zhan would have suspected that he had gotten up too early this morning and was hallucinating.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. The chief judge in the Ministry of Punishment who is specifically trying this person reported that this young eunuch possesses martial arts skills and can protect his heart meridians during torture. Even the most stubborn person would not be able to withstand the usual trial procedures. However, this person is able to endure it. He has been in the Ministry of Punishment for such a long time, and he still insists that Concubine Lian is innocent and was framed. Is there really a hidden secret?"

There was a hint of pity in Xiang Huayue's eyes, as if she really felt sympathy for Concubine Lian's experience.

When Liang Chongyue saw his mother coming to greet him, he turned around, brought a cup of tea to his scumbag father, and then sat beside his mother and listened obediently.

"Do you have any martial arts skills?"

Liang Zhan quickly grasped the key point. Unless the eunuchs in the palace were like Ping'an who followed Chongyue and were trained since childhood to protect the royal heir, they would be taught martial arts. Other eunuchs in the harem were not allowed to have martial arts skills.
