My eunuch An is a yandere
Chapter 30 Assistant to the 6th Palace
Bai Ningwei brought the little prince back to the palace safely, and Xiao Duo and the entire harem welcomed them.
Although this grand ceremony was given to the legitimate prince, the limelight was undoubtedly given to Bai Ningwei.
Especially after welcoming her legitimate son back with such a high profile, Xiao Duo did not make any other arrangements for him to go. So the child followed her back to Lingqi Palace by default.
This was a signal to everyone. The concubine who raised the legitimate son was naturally not just an ordinary concubine.
The seemingly peaceful harem is now turbulent with undercurrents and everyone has different thoughts.
No matter what others think, as the queen's elder sister, Nanny Qin naturally followed the little prince, and Huan'er returned to the eldest princess Xiao Yuan'er.
For the past two months, Xiao Yuan'er was most worried about her younger brother. How could she be willing to accept the fact that her younger brother would still be fostered by a concubine?
But she also knew that the virtuous concubine had the eldest prince, and it was impossible for her to be sincere to her brother, so she did not act willfully in this matter. Instead, she took Huan'er and carefully asked her brother whether he had been wronged by Bai Ningwei in the past two months.
During the two months of getting along, Bai Ningwei did not try to get close to anyone, but still made everyone feel her seriousness and responsibility towards the little prince.
So Huan'er told him everything she had seen in a plain and straightforward manner.
Xiao Yuan'er learned that Bai Ningwei was indeed interested in her brother, and she began to think about it. She then ordered someone to take out the treasures prepared in her private vault and personally deliver the thank-you gift.
As for Concubine Xian, when she heard that the little prince's procession had arrived at the palace gate, she knew that her plan had failed.
She was not worried about the truth being exposed, as everything would be handled by her uncle, and nothing would involve her or the eldest prince.
So after she tidied up her appearance, she stood in the C position with the emperor, welcoming the return of the little prince and Bai Ningwei as if she were the master of the harem.
But soon she couldn't laugh anymore.
The incident of the pollen attack on the road, as well as the eunuch and the tied-up people were brought to Xiao Duo.
After hearing the whole story, Xiao Duo felt that this group of people had really sinister intentions and could go to such lengths to consolidate their power.
Xiao Duo thought the same as Bai Ningwei.
If these two people had not been caught, everyone would have thought it was an unfortunate accident.
When Xiao Duo thought about the secrets he had seen in his previous life, and how they were now being used on his own son, he was so angry that he threw the Tianhuang hand-held ornament he had been playing with for many years.
Wang Xi was so frightened that he felt like his heart was broken into pieces. Oh my God, that was a hand-held piece made of Tianhuang material carved by a national master.
"Tell me, who ordered you to harm the prince?"
Xiao Duo was so angry that he shouted, but how could someone who could do something that could cost him his life tell the truth so easily?
The young eunuch was no longer submissive in front of Bai Ningwei. He just lowered his head and said nothing.
The man who was tied up was not calm. He was just an ordinary citizen who was paid to do something. He had no idea that he had committed a crime that would lead to the extermination of his entire family. When he learned that the person interrogating him was the current emperor, he was stunned on the spot and told everything he knew.
"Your Majesty, please spare me. I was unaware of this! It was this eunuch who found my brother and me and told us that we were on Beilang Mountain and that we only needed to fan the pollen down when we heard the signal. We never intended to harm anyone, and we didn't know pollen could be harmful. Your Majesty, please spare me."
"Where are your two brothers?"
When Wang Xi heard that there were two more brothers, he immediately pressed them for information. Any information he could get was a credit, as he was very experienced in this kind of thing.
"He ran away. But, but I know where he is hiding. I will lead the way and capture him."
It is unknown what the original relationship between the three offenders was, but in front of the emperor, this man was obviously frightened and told everything he knew before being tortured.
Seeing that the person who had confessed everything didn't seem to be lying, Wang Xi waved his hand and had him dragged away for further interrogation. If nothing could be learned, he could prepare to send the whole family on their way.
However, the civilian's words just now were still directed at this silent eunuch. Therefore, the breakthrough still lies with him. As long as he doesn't speak, there will be no new clues. The person behind him will also be unearthed.
After Xiao Duo personally interrogated the man without any results, he angrily stepped forward and kicked him, but still not satisfied. He could only ask Wang Xi to send the man to the Ministry of Punishment and force him to confess something.
Perhaps it was because the Ministry of Punishment was too famous, but upon hearing that they were going to the Ministry of Punishment, the eunuch who had been silent just now finally spoke.
"I was once Concubine Li's concubine. Your Majesty may have forgotten that you had a Concubine Li when you were in the Qiandi Palace. Unfortunately, she was unlucky and miscarried a boy when she was six months pregnant. She died soon after with the child."
"I recently learned how Concubine Li lost her child. Concubine Li saved my life, and I have no way to repay her. Only by killing my enemy's child can I make her smile in her grave."
"You fart!"
Xiao Duo couldn't bear it any longer and blurted out such a vulgar remark.
This bitch actually dared to allude to the Queen, implying that the Queen was killing the royal heir.
When the Empress gave birth to Xiao Yuan, she was still a princess consort. Even then, the imperial physician warned her that she might have difficulty conceiving. As the mistress, if she couldn't conceive, she naturally couldn't prevent others from doing so. Especially since having children was a political bargaining chip for every prince, a plus.
In the palace at that time, anyone could attack a pregnant woman except the princess.
Now someone shows up to bite the queen, he deserves to be killed.
The eunuch felt that he had completed his mission, so he took the opportunity to hit his head against the wall. Although he did not die, he was no longer able to breathe.
The imperial study was in a mess. Xiao Duo felt his heart stagnate as he looked at the chaos.
These people would not even let go of the deceased, nor would they let go of such a young child.
He no longer cared about the truth of the matter. It was just the mother of the eldest or second prince who did it.
In this case, don't blame him for being rude.
Xiao Duo was so angry that he laughed and called Wang Xi to his side.
"I hereby declare that Concubine Hui has been instrumental in caring for the prince and that she will be granted the authority to assist in the management of the six palaces."
"Xianfei, Wang Xiuyi is under house arrest for three months and is required to copy one hundred sutras for the Empress."
These two oral instructions can be said to be quite meaningful.
The emperor kept the young prince's distress on his way back to the palace a secret. As a result, the mothers of the eldest and second princes were confined to their homes and made to copy Buddhist scriptures, while Concubine Hui was appointed to assist in managing the six palaces...
This amount of information makes one think a lot.
Before Xiao Yuan'er walked out of the palace with the gift for Bai Ningwei, she heard the young eunuch come to report that Bai Ningwei was in power.
She had been involved in the open and secret struggles in the palace since she was a child, so Xiao Yuan'er immediately understood what was going on.
So when I saw the gifts I had prepared, they seemed a little meager.
"Huan'er, go to my private storehouse and find another screen and a jade carving. I want to go and congratulate Mother Hui."
Xiao Yuan'er said she would go and congratulate the other party, but the expression on her face was indifferent, even a little cold.
Although what happened to my younger brother this time was closely related to Concubine Xian Wang Xiuyi, my father asked Concubine Hui to raise my younger brother and gave her the power to manage the harem. What does this mean?
Could it be that he wants Bai Ningwei to be the next queen?
Xiao Yuan'er might be precocious, but she was only twelve or thirteen years old. She couldn't guess her father's true thoughts, nor did she dare to ask, so she could only guess in her heart.
Her mother had only been gone for two months. Could it be that her father was so impatient to appoint a new queen?
But she didn't want anyone to replace her mother and sit on the throne of queen.
