Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 181

"Investigate those connected to Eunuch Liu."

Eunuch Fu immediately thought of someone, "Your Majesty, could it be Eunuch Cai? He's currently working in the Imperial Concubine's palace, helping to manage all the affairs of the harem."

“Eunuch Cai once received a favor from Eunuch Liu.”

Murong Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. He felt that the figure looked familiar after hearing this. "Arrest him."

After bowing, Eunuch Fu immediately led his men to Eunuch Cai's residence, but they found it empty; the man was not there.

"Eunuch Fu, Eunuch Cai is serving the Imperial Concubine. What's wrong? Does His Majesty have any orders?" A young eunuch came out to greet him; he was Eunuch Cai's lackey.

There are three eunuchs who are currently the most popular in the palace: Eunuch Fu, Eunuch Cai, and Eunuch Ren from the Empress Dowager's palace.

The three eunuchs held high positions, but they all got along well and kept to themselves.

Now that Eunuch Fu has arrived with a group of imperial guards, it's clear that he's no ordinary person. Without saying much, Eunuch Fu said, "Then I'll be leaving now."

They went straight to the Imperial Concubine's palace.

Upon seeing this, the young eunuch quickly sent someone to report the news.

"What? Are you sure?"

Eunuch Cai bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, what I said is absolutely true. Last night, I went to Baohua Temple and discovered that His Majesty had secretly visited Baohua Temple and met with Miss Yun. The two of them were alone in a room, and His Majesty did not return all night. However, when I left, I was discovered by His Majesty's men, and now I am afraid that His Majesty will silence me."

"Your Majesty, please save this servant. The Emperor will certainly not let anyone know about this matter, so Your Majesty must not directly question the Emperor."

Consort Pei was furious. She smashed her teacup and her eyes hardened. "That bitch Yun Xiyue! I treated her like a good sister, and she actually seduced the Emperor behind his back."

"No wonder the Emperor would look for her every time she entered the palace."

They even claimed it was for the sake of the country.

Consort Pei burst into tears, "How could my cousin treat me like this? I'm going to find him..."

"Your Majesty, you mustn't do that. If you want to gain the Emperor's favor, you can't question him like that. It's extremely disrespectful. Since the Emperor likes Yun Xiyue, what you should do is make him happy."

“Yun Xiyue is not your greatest enemy. No matter how much the Emperor favors her, she can never become Empress.” Eunuch Cai hurriedly stopped her, saying a lot in an emergency, hoping that the woman would not act impulsively, otherwise she would only get him killed.

The nannies and maids around Consort Pei all joined in the persuasion.

She finally calmed down.

"Your Highness, Eunuch Fu is here. It looks like he's here to arrest Eunuch Cai."

Eunuch Cai knelt down and cried, "Your Majesty, please save this servant!"

Consort Pei wiped away her tears and sneered, "Get up. Don't worry, I won't let anyone touch you."

As she spoke, she stood up, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes, and went out to see Eunuch Fu.

“Eunuch Fu, Eunuch Cai stayed in Fanghua Palace all night and didn’t leave.”

"You need evidence to arrest people, otherwise you're going against me."

Consort Pei refused to release him.

Unable to force his way in, Eunuch Fu had no choice but to return and report.
