The emperor was a man who was unpredictable and murderous. Since he had called him here, he must have known everything about it.

If you continue to lie, I'm afraid the emperor will have murderous intentions, so why don't you speak out!

"Your Majesty also knows that folk girls are good at divination."

The interest in the emperor's eyes became even stronger.

"The folk girl calculated by divination that the Great Blessing Ziwei star was weakening, and there was a new star rising in the south, so she took some measures."

"To the south?" The emperor stood up and walked back. To the south is where Sima Yi's fiefdom is!

The emperor paced back to the desk. Eunuch Cao stood with his hands folded in front of him, his waist bent, and his eyebrows lowered.

"You said before that today is the opening of Mrs. Shen's shop, right?"

"Yes, when the old slave arrived, the ceremony seemed to have ended. Oh, it happened that the officials of Jingzhao Mansion were escorting the troublesome homeless man away."

"Oh? What's going on?" The emperor turned his head to Shen Yingxia.

Shen Yingxia knelt on the ground:

"It was an auspicious day to open my business today, but suddenly a homeless man came to blackmail me, saying that I hurt someone, but he couldn't explain how the conflict between the two parties started.

"He also brought evidence, which was the hairpin I lost before. He clearly pointed out that my name was engraved on it, but he was illiterate. It was really ridiculous."

Shen Yingxia didn't mention the person behind him at all, but the emperor was an old fox who was used to intrigues and intrigues, so how could he not think of it?

"Is there anything else special?" I was asking Eunuch Cao.

Eunuch Cao tilted his head and said thoughtfully: "There are many people around the scene. Oh, I also saw the carriage of the miko. Maybe I'm here to congratulate you, right?"

"Her!" The emperor walked back and forth in the room, wondering what he was thinking. After a moment, he kicked off his shoes casually. Eunuch Cao hurried forward, knelt down and picked up the shoes: "Your Majesty, please be careful..."

The emperor was a little impatient, but he still pulled up.

Shen Yingxia remained silent, thinking about what Eunuch Cao had done. Shen Yingxia had always thought that Eunuch Cao had surrendered to Sima Yi long ago.

But now it seems that it is not that simple. One of the greatest advantages that makes Eunuch Cao so favored by His Majesty is that he is so versatile.

He served the emperor personally, and his familiarity with the emperor's physical condition was unmatched by even the concubines in the harem who slept with the emperor.

Could it be that the reason why he showed kindness to Sima Yi before was because he guessed that the emperor was in poor health and the prince was young, so Sima Yi would be the one to take the power in the end?

But now, with Rich Amei and Master Tai Sui, the emperor's body is no longer so weak, so he turned to the emperor's service again?

This is very possible. He had no way of knowing what his new master's temperament was and how he would treat him. But the current emperor trusts and relies on him, and he can ensure his unlimited glory.

From this perspective, standing firmly with the emperor is the best choice.

After thinking about this, Shen Yingxia somewhat understood why Eunuch Cao singled out Liu Yu'er.

As a party involved, Shen Yingxia must not be implicated in Liu Yuer's case without evidence.

But Eunuch Cao is different. And he didn't directly point out that the homeless man was related to Liu Yu'er, he just said that he was passing by.

How much did the emperor know? When did he start laying out the plan?

Willow Village? Or earlier?

Could it be that the emperor was responsible for the assassination of Shen Yingxia and Sima Yi when they first met?
