Princess Menglang is hard to change, the whole capital is embarrassed for her

At dawn, the Wen family's doorman yawned, holding a broom in his hand, and opened the door sleepily.

At this time every day, we have to sweep the outside of the gate first. It's hot and dusty, so we have to sprinkle water after sweeping. By the time the masters go out, the inside and outside of the gate have been cleaned.

As the door opened, something hit the doorman on the forehead.

The doorman's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, wanting to see which bastard was playing a trick on him.

I saw four legs hanging in front of me.

Looking up from the feet, there are four legs, and then...

His eyes widened instantly, and he was so scared that he almost died. He dropped the broom in his hand and ran inside, shouting as he ran, "Help, someone is killing someone, someone come quickly."

The voice was filled with fear, and his throat was almost broken.

The shouting soon attracted many people, and the servants who had gotten up early were panicked. The housekeeper hurried out with his clothes on and ordered the servants to put the body down.

The weather was too hot and the corpse gave off a bad smell, so people didn't dare to go near.

The housekeeper bravely moved closer and glanced at the two people with dark faces. "Go to the Madam's courtyard and call Madam Zhuang over. Let her take a look. Why do these two people look like the ones Madam brought back?"

A servant turned around and ran to look for someone, and Nanny Zhuang came over quickly.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw them. Aren't these the two secret guards that Madam left at the Shen family to monitor Miss Shen? How could they be beaten so badly?

"Go buy two coffins and bury them. It's hot, don't keep them here."

After saying these words, Madam Zhuang hurried back to the lady's yard.

Mrs. Zhao had just gotten up when she heard the little maid say that Madam Zhuang was called away by the housekeeper. Before she knew what happened, Madam Zhuang came back.

As soon as he entered the room, he sent everyone away and said in a low voice, "Madam, something happened."

Mrs. Zhao frowned and looked at her without saying a word.

Madam Zhuang said, "The two secret guards you left at the Shen family were beaten to death and sent back."

Da Zhao's eyes suddenly widened.

Matron Zhuang continued, "I don't know who beat him up. His body is covered in bruises, not a single piece of intact skin. Even his clothes are torn. He's swollen, and looks horrible."

Da Zhao had a gloomy face, feeling both angry and afraid.

Does this need to be said?

It must be the person behind Shen Li who beat him. This person is indeed extraordinary. He has made them suffer setbacks one after another, but they couldn't find a single hair on him.

"I'll take charge. Have two coffins bought and take them out to be buried. Otherwise, when the sun rises, the swelling will become even more frightening."

Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "You handled it correctly. Tell the housekeeper to tell everyone that what happened today is not allowed to be spread outside, otherwise the whole family will be sold out."

"I understand." Madam Zhuang responded. Seeing that Madam didn't give any more instructions, she turned around, opened the door, and said to the maids, "Come in quickly and help Madam wash up. Be quick and efficient. Hurry up. You are so clumsy. You all stare blankly. Aren't you still asleep?"

The maids came in tiptoeing with their heads lowered, not daring to breathe.

……

in the palace.

After dismissing the court, the emperor returned to the imperial study and took out the secret letter again.

"Eunuch Chang, do you think what is written in this letter is true?"

"Your Majesty, I don't understand anything, so I dare not speak carelessly."

The emperor turned the letter over and over in his hands, but his thoughts were wandering.

Eunuch Chang took the cold tea away, brewed a new cup, and gently placed it on the imperial desk.

"The human heart is unpredictable," the emperor sighed deeply. "Come here, send this letter to the Ministry of War. Instruct Guan Yonghou to conduct a thorough investigation without favoritism. If anyone fails to do so, he will be severely punished."

Eunuch Chang hurriedly took the secret letter and handed it to the visitor.

He was a serious middle-aged man. He took the letter without saying a word, bowed, turned around and disappeared.

Eunuch Chang was used to it, so he just stood aside with his hands hanging down, head lowered and said nothing.

"Old Chang," the emperor suddenly said, "have you heard about the eldest daughter of the Wen family?"

Eunuch Chang raised his eyes to glance at the emperor, then quickly lowered them, "What is the emperor talking about?"

The Emperor shook his head and laughed. "Recent events have indeed been quite famous. I'm referring to the incident with the pornographic paintings. I heard it happened in the Prime Minister's residence. The Prime Minister personally sent people to investigate, but they couldn't find anything. Miss Wen swore to heaven that she didn't do it. The old Prime Minister was chatting with me yesterday and specifically mentioned this matter. He also mentioned the strange noise that day. He said it sounded like a girl screaming loudly through a copper horn, but only the voice could be heard and the person could not be seen. The old Prime Minister said that this person was so powerful that even all the secret guards in the Prime Minister's residence could not capture a single trace of him, which shows that his martial arts skills have reached the pinnacle. He has recently thought over the events of that day over and over again, and finally concluded that there was actually no danger or any problems in the Prime Minister's residence that day. In fact, it was his two nieces who suffered the consequences."

The emperor paused for a moment. "The old prime minister said that his two nieces were spoiled at home and were rather domineering. They sometimes bullied the younger sisters around them. He wondered if what happened that day was done by someone the sisters had offended. But..."

The Emperor frowned, somewhat puzzled. "It's just that they both offended a girl. After all, it was a girl's cry that the old Prime Minister heard. What kind of girl could be so capable that even the Prime Minister's Mansion couldn't catch her? I've never heard of such a person in the Great Zhou, right?"

Eunuch Chang nodded repeatedly.

He felt that the emperor was crazy, but he didn't dare to say it.

The old prime minister's brain is getting old and not working very well anymore.

There is no such girl. What nonsense.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Madam Wen told others that someone was jealous of her daughter and hid the album on her woman to frame her."

The Emperor scoffed at this and said, "That's just what the woman said. She couldn't think of any other way to clear her daughter's name, so she dragged the other girls into this. Her goal is to dirty everyone together. Humph, this method is really not fair."

Eunuch Chang was silent for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Could there really be such a girl as the old prime minister mentioned? She could single-handedly fool the old prime minister and the eldest prince, and even play tricks on the prime minister's two cousins?"

"The key point," the emperor said, "is that even so many secret guards couldn't find her. Do you know what this means?"

"Your Majesty, I can't imagine it."

"This means that if this person wanted to kill the Prime Minister and Chen'er at the time, not only would it be easy, but they could also escape unscathed. The Prime Minister's Mansion was guarded like a dragnet, so they didn't even see their shadow. Do you think I'm right?"

Eunuch Chang gasped.

Oh my god, that’s really the case.

"It also means that if I could use this person, he would be a sharp sword. If he were to go into battle and kill the enemy, wouldn't it be as easy as taking an enemy's head? Old Chang, just thinking about it makes me excited. How wonderful it would be if such a person really existed."
