Chapter 35: 034 Prime Minister Residence’s Number One Talented Lady (16) – Second Update

Zu Huan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, listening to Ye Shaohua’s voice, which made him involuntarily shiver and shrink his neck.

Others might not be aware, but he knew very well that the last person who tested her patience… now couldn’t even find their own family home.

It seemed that the chief steward of the inner affairs within the Crown Prince’s Palace had heard some noise, and upon seeing Ye Shaohua, immediately invited her in.

“Chief steward, what punishment is there for disrespecting the Crown Prince?” Ye Shaohua retracted her hand and leisurely wiped her fingers with the handkerchief Zu Huan passed to her.

“The crime of flagrant treason.”

Ye Shaohua seemed quite satisfied, “Just that.”

Having said that, she led Zu Huan inside.

The chief steward, who did not spare words even for the Third Prince, treated Ye Shaohua with the utmost respect and courtesy, which surprised the observing ministers.

The Crown Prince of Cloud Country was originally heading to Jiangnan, but he stopped because of this turn of events. After all, if that person did not want to see him…

He would find it impossible to locate her even in death, so he might as well stay to watch the drama unfold.

Especially since… Ye Shaohua gave him an inexplicably familiar feeling.

The Emperor had made the Crown Prince’s Palace impregnable, not allowing any person to enter. After Ye Shaohua brought people inside, she was practically cut off from the world, leaving everyone guessing about the Crown Prince’s condition.

Meanwhile, the Emperor finally found time to deal with the Empress and the Third Prince among others. He burst out in fury after coming out and placed the Empress and the Third Prince under house arrest.

As for Bai Zhenzhen, she was also punished by the Emperor for being disrespectful to the Crown Prince, but because of her high reputation among the common people, in the end he only decreed that Bai Zhenzhen should be demoted two ranks in her father’s military post.

This infuriated Bai Zhenzhen to the point where her hands trembled and she smashed several invaluable vases.

This was an era without human rights, where without power she would always be at the mercy of others!

For the first time, Bai Zhenzhen realized that she lived in an ancient era where imperial power was supreme, and that the Emperor could have her beheaded any day if he was not pleased, just because she was the daughter of a general. With no high status like Ye Shaohua, should she be bullied by the royal family, by Ye Shaohua?

Bai Zhenzhen’s eyes darkened. She had never thought about kicking Ye Shaohua while she was down, and even contemplated letting her off the hook, but now that Ye Shaohua had gone too far, she was no longer inclined to show mercy to the Ye Family.

With this in mind, Bai Zhenzhen immediately summoned her subordinates and secretly sent a confidential letter to the Third Prince.

Since the Emperor had severely punished the Third Prince’s faction, it caused people to doubt whether Huangfu Yunzhong was truly beyond help.

The Crown Prince’s Palace was still guarded tightly, with no good news forthcoming, which only added to everyone else’s suspicions.

In recent days, even the common palace maids and eunuchs kept away from the Crown Prince’s Palace as if avoiding a pest.

As a result, the Emperor had several eunuchs put to death, and now, a group of new palace maids and eunuchs was being distributed to the Crown Prince’s Palace.

“This is really unlucky,” one middle-aged eunuch muttered lowly, “to be assigned to such a haunted place!”

“Watch your words,” a young palace maid beside him, perhaps new to the Palace, whispered, “the person inside is the Crown Prince…”

“What Crown Prince, he’s about to become a wandering ghost,” the middle-aged eunuch glanced at the people beside him, “don’t say I didn’t warn you, the one inside won’t last long. You all better plan ahead. I’ve already bribed someone from the inner affairs office, and I will be transferring to the Third Prince’s Residence tomorrow. Even though it’s just a menial job, it’s better than waiting to die here.”

“But the Crown Prince’s personal guard just said the Crown Prince can stand up and walk, and that he will soon be healthier than an ordinary person…” the palace maid hesitated.

“You newcomers are so naive. The Crown Prince’s personal guards were on their knees begging at the Empress’s Palace just the other day,” the eunuch scoffed disdainfully, “about to recover? Daydreaming in broad daylight!”

Especially during these days, Bai Zhenzhen used a large sum of money to secretly recruit soldiers and procure the best equipment for these troops, currying favor with the key ministers at court.

With the Crown Prince in a critical situation, the Uncle of the Nation directly led the key ministers to coerce the Emperor into pardoning the Third Prince from house arrest.

This person always kept a low profile, and according to the original trajectory before Ye Shaohua’s arrival in this world, he was the Third Prince’s biggest rival, but in the end, he too fell for Bai Zhenzhen, the wealthiest woman in the Wang Dynasty behind the scenes, and for her, he gave up the throne. _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}
