Chapter 289: Search of the Yanxi Palace; Young Eunuch Testifies that Ling Chang is Present

"It seems that Concubine Chun still cannot clear her suspicion."

"And now there are witnesses who have incriminated Concubine Chun. This is what I am thinking: first, take Bi Tao into custody and then conduct an interrogation. Concubine Chun and the others will be confined to their respective palaces."

"What do you say, Your Majesty?"

Hongli nodded and said, "Let's do as the Queen wishes. I'm going to court now. Concubine Hui, I'll come see you later."

Gao Xiyue nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhongcui Palace, Yanxi Palace, and Qixiang Palace were all locked, and guards were posted to guard them, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.

The most pitiful thing is that Ling Changzai was confined to his room without even knowing what was happening.

"Master! The gate of our palace is locked, and there are guards at the front and back gates. Just now, I was thinking of going out through the back door, but the guards were all carrying knives, which was very scary!" The palace maid Xiang'er ran in crying.

Ling Changzai was also puzzled: "What happened?"

As they were talking, Li Yu and Rong Pei came in with their people.

Li Yu: "Search for me, don't leave any corner out."

Ling Changzai ran out and asked, "What is Eunuch Li Yu doing? Searching the palace for no reason?"

"The Emperor has decreed that until the truth about Concubine Hui's curse is fully understood, Ling Changzai is confined to the Yanxi Palace. All palace servants are prohibited from entering or leaving at will."

"Curse? You suspect I cursed Concubine Hui? Nonsense! I want to see the Emperor!"

Rong Pei grabbed her arm and pulled her back with force.

Ling Chang was so weak that he was no match for Rong Pei. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"The Queen Mother said that anyone who doesn't cooperate will be considered a murderer. Is Ling Chang going to be the murderer?"

Ling Chang fell heavily to the ground, and she cried in pain.

"I've never hurt anyone! How dare you, a servant, hit me? I'm going to tell the emperor! You're bullying me!"

"Ling Changzai, you are now a suspect. Don't even think about going anywhere. Besides, the Emperor may not want to see you. I advise you to take care of yourself."

At this time, all the palace servants who searched the palace came back.

Rong Pei asked, "Did you find anything?"

The crowd shook their heads.

Li Yu and Rong Pei looked at each other and were about to leave when they saw a young eunuch hiding something stealthily.

Li Yu shouted, "Catch him!"

Several people came forward and held him down.

Li Yu walked over and picked up a cloth bag from the ground. He opened it and saw several cloth figures inside!

"Who told you to hide this?"

The young eunuch glanced at Ling Changzai and then lowered his head.

Ling Chang pointed at himself and said with a puzzled look on his face: "Hey, don't look at me, this has nothing to do with me!"

Rong Pei also felt that the little eunuch appeared at the perfect time, as if it was deliberately arranged.

"Eunuch Li Yu, let's take the two of them back first. I always feel that this is too coincidental."

Li Yu nodded and had the young eunuch escorted back to Yiku Palace.

Rong Pei presented the cloth bag and said, "Your Majesty, everything happened by sheer coincidence. I can't figure out why Ling Changzai did this."

"People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Even the bugs in one's own stomach can bother others, let alone others."

Ruyi chuckled and said, "Go ask him who ordered him to do this."

Rong Pei went out and saw the young eunuch kneeling on the ground with his hands tied behind his back.

"Let me ask you, who instructed you to do this?"

Young eunuch: "Yes... Ling Changzai!"

"Oh, if you're making up a lie, at least make it sound good. You lost that thing when Eunuch Li Yu and I were here, not earlier or later. Do you think everyone else is a brainless idiot?"
