Chapter 11: The Remnants of the Southern Tang Dynasty
"Your Majesty, Xiao Shi has never been in office before, I ...... Can I really do it? ”
was entrusted with a heavy task for no reason, and Xiao Shi's face was full of uneasy openings.
"Competence can be cultivated, but faithfulness cannot ......"
"You don't have to flinch, just follow the rules of the Agency."
Chu Heng knew what it was like to suddenly be burdened, and smiled and comforted the little girl in front of him.
Xiao Shi's current appearance is similar to when he suddenly learned that his father had died and he had ascended the throne.
"Da Neiguan, you are too presumptuous, I am a female official personally appointed by Concubine Ning, do you still have a concubine in your eyes if you treat me like this?"
"Even if Your Majesty wants to see me, a mere eunuch is not worthy of touching me with dirty hands!"
Chu Heng still wanted to explain to Xiao Shi, but before he could say anything, there was a noise outside the hall.
After a while, Liu An, who looked indifferent, bowed down to the door and saluted Chu Heng, and behind him were the female officials who were tied up by ropes one by one.
"According to Your Majesty's will, the old slave has brought Song Yutong and the five virgin officials of the Internal Supervision Department to your Majesty."
It only took less than half an hour to complete the things he had explained, and even Chu Heng was shocked by Liu Ping's resoluteness.
"Seeing the holy face and dare to stand, this is a big disrespect!"
Liu An squinted his eyes and swept behind him, and his voice was not high but he was extremely stern: "Why don't you kneel down quickly?" ”
Taking advantage of Liu An's lesson, Chu Heng had the opportunity to take a good look at what the female officials of the Internal Supervision Office looked like.
And even if these people were tied in front of them by Liu Ping with a rope, they all held their heads high, without the slightest fear.
Among them, the attitude of the woman in the lead is the most arrogant!
"Song Yutong is just pampered and arrogant, but why did the female officers accompanying her look at me so ......?"
"Did the original owner dig up their ancestral grave?"
When Chu Heng was secretly thinking about why these female officials' eyes were so strange, Song Yutong snorted coldly and said with contempt:
"The emperor with a human face and a beast's heart, what is there to kneel on!"
"If there is no support from Concubine Yan on the occasion of the first emperor's funeral, the emperor should not be done by him!"
"Now that he has only been in power for a year, he will take revenge, and put his mind on Concubine Ning, this kind of emperor who has no shame, benevolence and injustice, where is it worth me to kneel?"
Chu Heng was expressionless when he heard this, and slowly stood up from Nangong Yuanshuang's side, looking at Song Yutong quietly.
"So the matter of Xiangfeng Palace, did you do it on purpose?"
Chu Heng knew in his heart that this woman was a female official of the Internal Supervision Department at any time, but she would never have the courage to argue with herself, even if she was personally appointed by Concubine Yan!
The attitude of those palace maids towards themselves made Chu Heng even more puzzled, although the original owner was a little lustful in the harem before, it was only for Yan Ruoxi.
A mediocre emperor who is quite generous to the palace maids and eunuchs and does not care about his identity, how can He De provoke the unwarranted resentment of these female officials?
"Why am I like this, Your Majesty still knows it in your heart?"
Even though he was questioned by the emperor, Song Yutong still stiffened his neck and sneered: "But compared with His Majesty's bestiality in the harem, the fault of the slave and maid is nothing!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Chu Heng reacted that this woman knew everything about his behavior in the harem last night.
Chu Heng's mind moved, and he remembered today's events in the court for no reason, and the killings were frequent.
"Song Yutong, the female official of the Internal Supervision Bureau, has no harem law and discipline, and if she commits the following crimes, she will be removed from her official body and imprisoned in the cold palace from now on, and she will be strictly interrogated, regardless of life or death!"
"The female officials of the five departments of the agency refused to admit their guilt, and after the matter was revealed, they even wanted to assassinate the queen, so they were immediately dragged out of the noon gate and killed with a cane!"
Chu Heng's two wills in succession instantly made Song Yutong and the five female officials dumbfounded.
Plead guilty? This was not even tried, and they were not given a chance to confess their guilt at all!
As for the assassination, it is even more nonsense, the six people are tied to death with hemp rope, where is the opportunity to assassinate?
Such a blatant framing charge is simply shameless to the point of jaw-dropping!
It's a pity that they live in the harem but don't know that Chu Heng learned this method of fabricating charges from Yan Xu and his henchmen!
A female official of the Internal Supervision Office can know the secret news of last night, and Chu Heng also knows that tomorrow morning, the changes in the harem tonight will definitely spread all over the court, causing Yan Xu and his party to criticize.
Now that it has been decided to completely purge the harem, it is better to let the bodies of these people block Yan Xu's mouth!
"The old slave will do it!"
Liu An bowed down to receive the order, and then assigned the eunuch waiting outside the door to escort Song Yutong and others.
"Shameless!"
Song Yutong scolded, and the hemp rope tied to his body broke in response, and this sudden change made the eunuchs who stepped forward to take people stunned.
"Since you say that I am waiting to assassinate, then I will assassinate you, the faint king, to see!"
As soon as the sound fell, Song Yutong's figure flashed, and he had already broken free from the remaining ropes on his body, and he took a sharp step and went straight to Chu Heng.
Although she has no blade in her hand at this moment, just with her crazy look, anyone will feel that the assassination is already nine out of ten!
"This woman still has such skills!"
As soon as the thought in Chu Heng's heart appeared, his body subconsciously took a few steps back, just wanting to stay away from the other party as much as possible.
Although he guessed that Concubine Ning would definitely spare no effort to save her maid, she never expected that the other party's backhand would be so simple and direct!
Although Chu Heng couldn't see what this woman's martial arts were, just by looking at her momentum, he could guess that as long as she was close, she would definitely not be able to protect herself!
"Dare to assassinate Your Majesty in person, where did you put the old slave?"
Before Liu An's words fell, the ghost-like figure had already appeared in front of Chu Heng.
With a tooth-aching sound of bones cracking, Song Yutong's right hand was bent into a strange shape at some point.
In the next second, Liu Ping's palm spit out, and Song Yutong's chest was hit hard, and he suddenly flew upside down and hit the pillar on the side!
"Your Excellency!"
The speed at which the two fought each other before was only an instant in the eyes of outsiders.
Seeing Song Yutong clutching his chest and suddenly spurting out a blood, the five female officials exclaimed in surprise.
"When I entered the palace, I heard from the master that there was a master hidden within the walls of Dayan Palace, and I searched for five years for this ......"
"But I didn't expect this person to be you!"
Song Yutong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared at Liu An with eyes like a knife.
"The old slave once heard that there were still people in the Southern Tang Dynasty who wanted to restore the country, but he never thought about the remnants of the past, and he had already put his hand into Dayan's harem."
Liu An is still like an old man, but his eyes have become a lot sharper: "You can live only because Your Majesty has never opened your mouth to let you die......"
Song Yutong heard the words and supported his body, and laughed miserably with blood between his teeth:
"You are a grandmaster, I am certainly not your opponent......"
"But Dayan has long been declining, and this world will be my Tang world sooner or later!"
After saying that, Song Yutong's face gave birth to a strange flush, and in the next second, his body became softer, and then he fell to the ground completely.
After confirming that this person was silent, Liu Ping's momentum suddenly dissipated, and he turned back into the kind internal official beside Chu Heng.
"The old slave came late to save His Majesty and frightened His Majesty, and he deserved to die!"
