Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions

Shen Chumo, who held power in the harem, issued her first order: "All palace servants who accept bribes will be fined two years' salary. If they commit the offense again, they will not be spared next time."

Her voice was clear and powerful, echoing throughout the palace.

The palace servants expressed their gratitude one after another, their faces filled with excitement.

After all, they thought they would die this time, but it turned out they were only fined. Now they are filled with gratitude and awe for Shen Chumo, grateful for her kindness and awe for her decisiveness and fairness.

After announcing the order, Shen Chumo looked at An Nuannuan and asked softly, "Your name is An Nuannuan?"

When An Nuannuan heard Shen Chumo ask her name, she was thrilled and hurriedly curtsied, replying, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Her voice trembled slightly, clearly indicating she was very nervous.

Shen Chumo nodded slightly to show her satisfaction, and then continued, "Hmm, I think you're quite clever. Would you be willing to come and serve in Kunning Palace?"

These words made An Nuannuan's eyes light up instantly, and she answered loudly without hesitation, "This servant is willing!" Her voice was full of determination and excitement.

Shen Chumo smiled and said, "In that case, come to Kunning Palace to take up your duties tomorrow."

The Kunning Palace has been renovated and we can officially move there tonight.

Seeing this, all the other palace servants looked at An Nuannuan with envy. Anyone with eyes could see that the future mistress of the harem would be none other than Consort Shen. An Nuannuan's entry into Kunning Palace meant she had truly risen to prominence.

After some time, the Dali Temple thoroughly investigated all of the Wang family's crimes. This investigation completely exposed the Wang family's shameful acts: treason, collusion with the enemy, bullying the people, corruption, and dozens of other crimes. Even if the entire Wang family died ten times over, it wouldn't be a pity.

In the Wang family's treasury, gold and silver treasures were piled up like mountains, and their wealth was equivalent to several years' worth of national taxes.

The Wang family originally relied on being the maternal family of the Empress Dowager and the fact that the head of the family was the current prime minister to act recklessly and lawlessly.

Back then, they were arrogant and domineering, looking down on everyone, as if they believed they were in charge of the whole world.

Even before Xie Yanhuai ascended the throne, they were already running rampant and arrogant in Chang'an.

However, fate is always unpredictable. The death of the Empress Dowager and the injury of the eldest prince dealt a heavy blow to the royal family, but they did not become more restrained as a result.

They placed Wang Hui in the harem, hoping to use her to support a new empress and maintain the family's honor.

Unfortunately, Xie Yanhuai had no interest in the affairs of the harem and never set foot inside, which repeatedly thwarted the Wang family's plans.

The situation was disrupted by the appearance of Shen Chumo. The Wang family could no longer sit still and decided to get rid of Shen Chumo. However, they did not expect that Xie Yanhuai valued Shen Chumo so much. Instead of leaving in the face of the beast, he stood in front of Shen Chumo.

Everything failed.

As Shen Chumo had predicted, Xie Yanhuai exposed the Wang family's crimes to the public. On the day the Wang family was beheaded, the people of Chang'an cheered and applauded, throwing rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at them recklessly.

The once invincible Wang family has now become prisoners, despised by the people.

Their crimes were heinous, and the pent-up anger of the people for many years finally erupted at this moment.

As a result, Xie Yanhuai and Shen Chumo's reputation among the common people began to improve. Later, rumors even circulated in the city that the current emperor was not a cruel person, and that those he killed in the palace were only those who deserved to die.

His Majesty once guarded the border for five years, protecting the people of Great Xia, killing countless barbarians, defending the country, and achieving great military exploits. He is a true hero.

This statement has elicited mixed reactions, with some rejoicing and others grieving.

Inside the Chu King's residence, the atmosphere was eerie. Many subordinates knelt on the ground, watching the Chu King with trepidation. Xie Siyuan, dressed in white, leaned against a rosewood chair, lightly tapping the table with his fingers, his expression unreadable.

"So, none of the Wang family's things were found?"

A man in black replied, "By the time my subordinates arrived at the Wang family's residence, it had already been emptied out. Those items are likely already in the hands of the Dali Temple."

The affairs of the Wang family are far-reaching, and there are countless officials who usually associate with the Wang family. If this list of officials could be obtained, it would be of great benefit to the King of Chu's cause.

“A bunch of useless trash,” Xie Siyuan said coldly.

The man in black lowered his head and said in a flustered manner, "Your Highness, please forgive me."

A handsome young strategist dressed in blue stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry."

Xie Siyuan raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Xu Kui, what do you say?"

Xu Kui smiled slightly and said slowly, "The Great Xia Dynasty is currently beset by internal and external troubles, and the situation is turbulent. However, this is also a time when we need talented people."

The Wang family has just fallen, and the Emperor needs to stabilize the court, so he will not take action against other families for the time being. At this moment, the position of Prime Minister is vacant, which presents an excellent opportunity.

Xie Siyuan nodded slightly in agreement.

Xu Kui continued, "We should act quickly and nominate our own candidate for the position of prime minister. This will naturally garner more support for us."

Xie Siyuan: "You're absolutely right. So, who do you think should take this position?"

Xu Kui asked, "What does Your Highness think of Shen Han?"

“Shen Han?” Xie Siyuan asked, puzzled. “This man does have some ability, but he is narrow-minded and not someone who can accomplish great things.”

Xu Kui nodded, a smile playing on his lips. "I understand, but Consort Shen is Shen Han's daughter..."

A glint flashed in Xie Siyuan's eyes, and he instantly understood Xu Kui's meaning. He laughed loudly, "That's right, strategist Xu, you've thought further ahead."

Xu Kui, instead of becoming arrogant upon receiving the praise, calmly continued, "Now that Consort Shen is in charge of the harem, and His Majesty favors only her, Consort Shen's prestige is soaring."

Although Consort Shen and Shen Han were not on good terms, they had not completely broken off relations. After all, Consort Shen was still Shen Han's daughter.

If Shen Han were to become the prime minister, Consort Shen's position in the harem would be more secure, and she would probably not refuse such a wonderful offer.

If Consort Shen could put in a good word for him before the Emperor, Shen Han's position as Prime Minister would be secure; it would be a win-win situation.

The advisor on the other side retorted, "But Consort Shen forced Shen Han to divorce his own mother, which shows how big the conflict between the two is. If Consort Shen is enraged because of this, wouldn't she be losing more than she gains?"

Xu Kui still confidently said, "Consort Shen's mother used to be a servant of the Xu family. Even after becoming Shen Han's concubine, she was never favored and was constantly tormented by her mistress. That's why Consort Shen spoke up for her mother."

If Shen Han were to marry Lady Wu with the respect due to a secondary wife and serve her well, Consort Shen would surely change her opinion of him.

The others nodded in agreement. Indeed, Consort Shen's mother came from a humble background. If she could be elevated to the status of a secondary wife, Consort Shen would likely stop causing trouble.

After hearing this, Xie Siyuan agreed, saying, "Xu Kui is right. I entrust this matter entirely to you. Make sure Shen Han brings Wu back."

Xu Kui cupped his hands and said, "Your subordinate obeys."
