Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

"You, you are the emperor, but you may not be able to help me!"

Nanny He hesitated for a moment and suddenly said.

Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly. He, the emperor, couldn't help. What kind of force did Nanny He offend?

What could make Nanny He so insecure?

"Madam He, could it be Yang Dechang who is the culprit behind the arrest of your family?"

Ye Chen only needed to think about it for a moment to understand that the power of the powerful officials in the court was indeed greater than that of him, the emperor.

After thinking about it, the only person who could make Nanny He believe that even the emperor could not protect his family members was the powerful officials in the court.

"I won't say anything, I won't say anything!"

Nanny He suddenly shouted.

"Kill me, you tyrant! Kill me if you dare!"

"Ah."

Ye Chen stared at Nanny He with a deep gaze and said, "Nanny He, you actually don't trust me to protect your family, but you should also know that as soon as you die, your family will lose their value in the hands of those powerful officials. They will naturally no longer protect them. At that time, even if your family is not killed by those powerful officials, I will not let them go!"

Upon hearing this, Nanny He was stunned, and a look of fear appeared on her pale face.

"You, you, don't hurt my family."

Nanny He was completely panicked.

At this moment, she felt that no matter which side she stood on, her family would not be safe.

"Hmph, listen to me! Just tell me who is threatening you and who has captured your family, and I will definitely be able to protect your family. Otherwise, your family will have no chance of survival!"

Ye Chen's voice was calm, yet seemed quite domineering.

After hearing his words, Nanny He's expression immediately became complicated.

She still couldn't make up her mind because she knew how powerful the force that had captured her family was, and her family was now in the hands of the other party. She was not the only spy in the harem. If the news leaked out, her family would be doomed.

"You don't have to answer me now."

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. After a moment's thought, he understood what Nanny He was afraid of, so he said, "I will first put you in the palace's death row and let others know that you are still under trial, but I won't reveal any other information. Then, before you die, others will naturally not dare to touch your family."

"But you have to plead guilty!"

"After I have locked you up for a while, I will find your family and protect them. Then I will ask you to testify in court."

Hearing this, Nanny He's heart trembled, and a complicated expression immediately appeared on her pale face.

Following Ye Chen's approach, Nanny He knew that her family could really be saved.

"Can I trust you?"

Nanny He looked up at Ye Chen and said.

"I am the Son of Heaven, my words are final!"

Ye Chen waved his hand, and he exuded the aura of an emperor, captivating and domineering.

"Your Majesty, I plead guilty. If Your Majesty can save my family, I will stand up and testify against the treacherous officials in the court."

Nanny He kowtowed heavily and bowed her head completely.

Hearing this, Ye Chen had a blank expression on his face, then waved his hand.

"Qiu'er, take Nanny He away."

"Yes."

Immediately, the imperial guards came forward and carried Nanny He away.

Throughout the whole process, Nanny He did not resist at all and behaved extremely submissively.

"Your Majesty, Madam Xue has sent someone again. She was clearly very unhappy when she heard that Nanny He was going to be sent to death row."

Shen Qiu came to Ye Chen and clasped his fists towards him.

Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly. This Madam Xue was indeed quite troublesome.

Nanny He was imprisoned in the death row and had agreed to plead guilty, but she did not give out anyone else's identity and her family had not been found. Ye Chen did not know whether Madam Xue had anything to do with the incident, so he naturally could not let Madam Xue meet Nanny He.

But if Madam Xue insisted that Ye Chen had confessed under torture, and the news reached the court, it would definitely cause a big uproar.

"Forget it, I'll go to her bedroom."

Ye Chen waved his hand and decided to go there in person. At least before the truth came out, he needed to make Madam Xue shut up.

Snow Plum Palace.

In the harem, there is also a bedroom with a fairly large area.

There are many kinds of plum, pine, bamboo and cypress trees in this palace. In spring, it is full of green and looks vibrant.

When Ye Chen walked into Xuemei Palace, the entire palace was surrounded by the imperial guards, but the palace maids and eunuchs in Xuemei Palace still performed their duties and did not seem to be in a panic.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, the sound of porcelain breaking was heard in the main hall of Xuemei Palace.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows. As he approached the main hall, he heard a burst of angry curses filled with dissatisfaction.

"A tyrant! A shameless ruler! Unworthy of being a ruler!"

Ye Chen couldn't help but curl his lips, and stopped the eunuchs and palace maids who wanted to salute him. After signaling these people to be quiet, he strode into the main hall.

"Who are you scolding?"

Ye Chen stared at Madam Xue who was sitting on the main seat in the hall and said in a calm tone.

Upon hearing this, Madam Xue was slightly stunned, then stood up in surprise.

"How did you come?"

"I can't come?"

Mrs. Xue pursed her lips and knelt down.

"Greetings to the Emperor."

"Get up, stop being so fake."

Ye Chen waved his hand and said.

Hearing this, the muscles on Madam Xue's face tensed slightly. After she stood up, she asked Ye Chen, "Your Majesty, why is my maid in the death row?"

"Your maid has confessed her guilt."

"impossible!"

Madam Xue widened her eyes, glared at Ye Chen, and said, "Emperor, are you torturing me?"

"I didn't."

"Then I want to see my maid."

"Not yet. Your maid is still being interrogated, and some things haven't been clarified yet."

Ye Chen waved his hand and refused directly.

Upon hearing this, Madam Xue's pretty face turned grim. She said, "Emperor, you're afraid I'll see the maid. Could it be that you've tortured her into confessing, and now you want to silence the public?"

"Mrs. Snow."

Ye Chen's face darkened slightly, and he said, "After a while, when the interrogation is complete, I will let you see the maid."

"Humph!"

Madam Xue's face was cold, and she didn't buy it at all: "Emperor, if you don't let me see the maid right away, then you are forcing yourself to confess because you are afraid of being seen!"

Madam Xue looked straight into Ye Chen's eyes, as if she was determined to make a big deal out of this.

Ye Chen frowned slightly and said, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense."

"Your Majesty, do you want to silence me? That's impossible!"

Madam Xue said with an air of absolute power and unyielding strength.

Seeing this, Ye Chen also felt a headache.
