Accidentally dressed as an empress

Yunxiu went to bed early and got up early. After a good sleep, she got up early the next morning and went to the palace to attend court.

The main hall of Yunji Palace is where ministers hold court every day. Twelve large pillars with coiled dragons stand on the white marble floor tiles. The entire palace is extremely spacious, and a golden dragon throne stands on the highest step.

Yunxiu dug out the original owner's memories and stood in the middle of the first row, ignoring the gazes of the courtiers. They probably thought, how shameless of her to come to court when the princess had been deposed.

Yunxiu didn't bother to pay attention, she just wanted to stand there and empty her mind.

He got up at 5 o'clock in the morning and started the morning court at 6 o'clock. It was really not easy for the original owner to have no dark circles on his face.

The Queen Mother asked her to attend court, and Yunxiu became a civil servant who needed to be on duty.

When you become a corporate slave, the first thing you need to do is not to find a way to get promoted, but to understand the vacation system.

The Yun Kingdom has holidays on the first, fifth, tenth, fifteenth, twentieth and twenty-fifth days of every month.

The intensity of work in ancient times was also quite high. A month of thirty days had six days off. With modern work schedules and two days off a week, you can have at least eight days off a month.

However, if a holiday falls on the 15th day of the month, an extra day will be given. If the holiday falls on the 15th day of the month, an extra day will be given on the 16th day of the month following the holiday. In addition to the 15th day, the Dragon Head-Raising Festival on the second day of the second lunar month, the Flower Festival on the 12th day of the second lunar month, the Shangsi Festival on the third day of the third lunar month, the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, and the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month are also days off.

The longest holiday is the Spring Festival. People can start their holiday from Laba Festival and continue until after the Lantern Festival. How happy they are.

Civil servants certainly don’t have such a long holiday, but they can also take a holiday from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month to after the Lantern Festival.

I can have more than 20 days of vacation.

Yunxiu stood in the first row with her hands in her pockets, touching the fish with her mind full of thoughts.

After His Majesty sat down on the dragon throne, he asked, "What do you want to report today?"

The Grand Historian ordered Yu Miao to step forward and report, "This summer, Lingyun City has not seen a drop of rain for two months. Your Majesty, please report this to Heaven and pray for rain."

Yunxiu grumbled inwardly, "Foolish! Summer doesn't usually rain much. Can you just pray for rain?"

Who knew His Majesty nodded and agreed, "Taishi Yu, ask the Ministry of Sacrifice and Rites to arrange it."

The system explained to her, "The Ministry of Sacrifices and Rites is in charge of Yun Nation's sacrifices, rituals, and ceremonies. It is equivalent to the Ministry of Rites in the Three Provinces and Six Ministries."

[The Grand Historian was an official responsible for recording astronomical and meteorological data and calculating the calendar. The Grand Historian was equivalent to the Imperial Astronomical Bureau during the Song and Yuan dynasties and the Imperial Astronomical Bureau during the Ming and Qing dynasties.]

The Internal Secretary ordered Li Xian to step out and said, "Today, someone in Lingyun City sounded the drum to report a case. This case is related to the palace. Your Majesty, please make a decision."

His Majesty said, "Present the case file."

The system then explained, "The Internal History Order of Lingyun City was later called Jingzhao Yin. The Yun Kingdom still follows the old name of Zhou Li."

His Majesty glanced at the file and said, "This case concerns the harem, Princess. You will be the judge. The Internal History will preside over the trial."

"My son, I obey."

"The minister obeys the order."

The system excitedly said, "Li Xian is an upright and incorruptible expert in investigating crimes. In the future, she will compile a book, a comprehensive guide to laws and regulations, to teach officials how to judge cases and assess crimes. A true SSR. Host, quickly improve your favorability."

Yunxiu glanced lazily over. Li Xian looked to be in her twenties, still quite young. Yunxiu thought to herself, "She's someone with ideals and ambitions, dedicated to her country and her people. She'll do what she's supposed to do, no matter who's the emperor. Someone with such a strong sense of justice doesn't clique up or form factions. Recruiting her would only incur her dislike."

[Oh~~] The system dragged out the sound, [If the host is worried about shortening his lifespan, just say it directly. It's not shameful.]

The system said something rude and got banned.

Yunxiu, a homebody who wanted to be rich and idle, found that after she was stripped of her position as the Crown Princess, she became even busier and had to go to the grassroots level.

She started at the grassroots level, starting with the Imperial Household Department. She had been to the Imperial Prison before, and she had some connections with the Grand Secretary of Justice, who was also a member of the Li family.

However, the stubborn Li Xian gave her a hard time. "Your Highness," he said, "there are actually more cases involving the palace than just this one. I've only been in office for a year, and already, over twenty cases have been reported missing by civilians. Their sons entered the palace as servants, sending money home every month, but suddenly, they lost contact. With nowhere else to turn, they cry every day at the gate of the government office."

"I no longer live in the palace. However, if Lord Li wishes to uncover the truth, he can go to a rocky beach ten miles northwest of the palace. There's a mass grave there, and there might be clues."

Countless people disappeared from the palace. How many people were swallowed up by that Shura hell that was veneered in splendor?

Yunxiu said, "Let's talk about this case first."

The specific details of the case are as follows.

It was a hot summer day and the patrol office fished out a body from the moat. The coroner found that the body had died of poisoning.

Li Xian originally wanted to close the case as an ordinary suicide, but a father and daughter came to claim the body and cried, "My wife had just gotten a good job as a cargo girl in the palace, but who knew she would die suddenly, wuwu... She was the pillar of the family, she fell, what should we do, wuwu..."

The man also tried to prove that, "The neighbors can testify that what I said is true."

Li Xian also sent people to verify it, and what he said was correct.

At this time, Li Xian opened the female corpse's armpit and said, "Your Highness, please look at this, the mandala tattoo."

There should be applause here, applause for the Internal History Officer Li. It's all soaked into steamed buns, and you can still tell.

Anyone who does something bad and is targeted by the observant Li Xian will be skinned alive if not killed.

"The mandala tattoo is the mark of a spy organization within Lingyun City. The deceased was also killed by the poison of the spy organization."

Li Xian looked at Yunxiu, who had been listening to the case in silence, and asked, "Your Highness, do you remember if anything unusual has happened in the palace in the past few days?"

"In recent days? I don't remember much. I just moved out of the palace." Yun Xiu thought carefully and said, "But I remember that the water in the palace can be connected to the moat."

Li Xian speculated, "This spy disguised herself as a courier and sneaked into the palace with evil intentions, but for some reason, she committed suicide out of fear of punishment."

Yun Xiu smiled slightly and said, "She must have a token to enter and exit the palace. So, who issued the token to this person?"

Li Xian looked at the eldest princess steadily. She had actually thought of this as well.

Yun Xiu sighed and said, "Your Majesty sent me to the trial because he didn't want Lord Li to come into the palace to investigate and implicate more people. Does Lord Li understand?"

"Your Highness wants to protect someone in the palace?"

"That's wrong. Your Excellency has already found out that this person was poisoned. You speculated that she committed suicide."

Yunxiu paused. "I've heard that these spies hide poison under their tongues, and if their mission fails, they bite the poison sac and commit suicide. That spy organization is often guilty of murder and arson. I will petition His Majesty to eliminate this scourge. When the time comes, I'll need Lord Li to provide me with more clues."

"Sir, instead of dwelling on this case, why not... go to the mass grave?" Yun Xiu said in a low voice with a look of pity on her face, "Gather the remains of those poor people's children."
