Evil Girl Reborn: The Eldest Princess, She Takes Manchurian Civil and Military Affairs

Chapter 79: Year-End Transition Chapter + Hidden Weapon
At the end of the year, when all the states and counties returned to the court to report on their work, the emperor directly placed his office in Hanyuan Hall and began a seamless reception and office mode.

Yiman runs back and forth between Qingsi Hall, Wenhua Hall and Hanyuan Hall at three o'clock every day.Occasionally, while waiting at the side entrance of Hanyuan Hall, I can still hear the emperor's voice of receiving people and dealing with people's livelihood and government affairs in various states and counties.I learned a lot about the rights and wrongs between 24 divisions in three provinces, six ministries, and twists and turns, and I benefited a lot.

Occasionally, the emperor would ask Yiman some questions during tea time, and Yiman held her own, half-truth and half-false, which attracted mostly the emperor's admiration, which made the emperor pay more attention to her.

The queen was also busy meeting with various wives and royal family members.We also have to prepare for the pilgrimage of the imperial court ladies after the new year next year, and we are very busy with the Ministry of Rites, the internal servants, and the two ministers in the palace.

At the family banquet after the palace banquet, the queen expressed her heart to the emperor, and watched with pain in her eyes as the emperor interacted with the young and beautiful concubine.

Yiman felt sorry for his misfortune and was angry that he would not argue, but it was not easy to directly attack and push the emperor to the queen's side.He had no choice but to plead guilty and return to Qingsi Hall.

After receiving rewards and gatherings with all the palace officials in the Qingsi Palace, I returned to the inner chamber.

Yiman looked at the hidden weapon that Lu Bo handed over two days ago with drunken eyes, and his face was full of doubts.

Regardless of who the two groups of people belong to, just looking at this hidden weapon is very strange.

This hidden weapon looks like a smaller version of a palm, but spikes half the length of a dagger emerge from the root of the palm, shining with a cold light.

I looked through many records of hidden weapons, but couldn't find a match.She was in a deep palace, and it was difficult for anyone to inquire about the affairs of the world, so she attracted attention without any effort.

And the two groups of people were obviously rushing for Eunuch Lu's life.Although the government also decided to report the robbery to the palace, it was busy at the end of the year, so the palace left according to normal procedures.But those two people seemed to have disappeared. Apart from the hidden weapon and Lu Bo's witness, there was no clue.

Who knows what she did and can help her clean up the trouble?
Could it be that he belongs to Cheng Youseng?
Or is it because Eunuch Lu is doing something wrong and attracting enemies?
Yiman suddenly came back to his senses and thought of Bai Yi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.I don't know if the secret guards have a day off during the New Year's Day.

"Bai Yi?"

There was no sound in the inner room. Yiman put down his concealed weapon, stood up and walked out, "I'm going to tell my mother, did you spy on me changing clothes?"

There was a wind blowing in the room, and a figure in black appeared in front of Yiman.

Yiman suppressed the smile on his lips, cleared his throat, picked up the hidden weapon and put it in front of his eyes, "Does anyone among your secret guards use such a hidden weapon?"

Bai Yi shook his head, "Back to the princess, no. Such weird hidden weapons do not comply with the guidelines for secret guard operations. Most of them are special shapes made by people in the world to show their personality."

It does make sense. Secret guards are all about efficiency and move quickly and silently.What if there is any special mark that exposes the owner’s information?
Yiman suddenly thought of what she had done these days. He raised his eyelids and stared at Bai Yi, "Bai Yi, haven't you told your father about what I have done these days?"

Bai Yi was also very unwilling. He wanted to say it but dared not.

He wanted to say it was because he didn't want to disobey the commander's order, but I couldn't say it was because he recognized that the eldest princess was a madman.If he really offends her, she is afraid that not only will he drag him to hell, but she may also drag everyone to accompany her to hell.

"Princes and princesses report once a month. I am busy at the end of the year, and the commander asked all the hidden guards to write the report on paper. The princess often makes shocking moves. Every time the subordinates have no time to write, the commander insists on asking for it. The commander hates it." The subordinate was dull and only asked if there was anything unusual. When he saw that the subordinate was silent, he assumed that there was nothing unusual."

After listening, Yiman couldn't help laughing.

I think the secret guard commander saw that she often went to the emperor's side, so he thought there was nothing unusual about her, and he disliked this stupid goose, so he didn't ask any more questions.

But this was also the reason why Bai Yi kept his promise and made up his mind not to say anything more. Otherwise, he would always find an opportunity.

Yiman had already made up her mind. If Bai Yi was really an untrustworthy villain, and the emperor blamed him and falsely accused Bai Yi of committing evil deeds, she would not believe that Bai Yi was an eunuch.

At worst, start all over again and save your life, everything is possible.

Yiman put down the concealed weapon casually, his head feeling dizzy, "Did you find anyone who was spying on me in the dark? Who are those two groups of people?"

Bai Yi was sure that no one was watching the eldest princess in the dark. He was frowning and thinking. When he saw that the eldest princess had fallen asleep on the bed, he flew away and hid in the dark.

Early the next morning, Yiman woke up in a daze.

It's still dark, so Ji Lan has to come to serve him.

Yiman touched it casually and found an empty space. He immediately woke up, sat up suddenly, and stared at his hand, "Bai Yi, Bai Yi."

Bai Yi was taking a nap. When he heard this exclamation, he thought something had happened, so he pulled out the dagger and quickly dropped it in the room.

Looking around, there was no movement. "Princess?" Yiman pointed to the bed, "Have you put away that hidden weapon?"

Bai Yi stared at the little boy beside the bed, stunned, and then moved his eyes to Yi Man's face, and the two stared at each other with big eyes.

Looking at Bai Yi's stunned expression, he knew it wasn't him. Yiman turned around and touched the bed, then shook the quilt, but nothing fell out.

"Bai Yi, has no one been here?"

Bai Yi shook his head, his heart beat faster, he was sure he didn't hear anything.The dark guard has been trained to sleep since he was a child, waking up every other hour.When falling asleep, no matter how small the sound is, he can wake up immediately, and even if the master is raving, he can open his eyes.Last night, I didn't hear any sound, is it haunted?Bai Yi fell into self-doubt.

Yiman glanced at him and naturally trusted him. If Bai Yi was not qualified, he would not be able to get the job.But who is so powerful in martial arts that he can compete with the Royal Guards?
This person must be a hidden master or one of the best in the world. Should she develop her influence in the world?

"Okay, it's not bright yet, let's go and rest for a while. I'll ask Ji Lan and the others to help me look for it later. Maybe it fell under the bed."

Bai Yi was helpless, nodded and flew away.

After Yiman rested for another hour, he was pulled up by Ji Lan and others, packed up, and rushed to worship ancestors and other ceremonial activities.

By the time we finally stood still, it was already afternoon, and everyone in Qingsi Hall was very tired.

He was as weak as Yi Man and was already slumped in the chair unable to move.Before I could rest, I heard bad news.

"Princess, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fainted due to overexertion on his way back to the palace."

Yiman rubbed his scalp and said, "Has the imperial doctor gone? What is the attitude of the father, the emperor and the empress?"

"The imperial doctor has passed, Your Majesty."

Seeing Lu Bo's troubled face, he knew that the emperor must have nothing nice to say or look good on.

"Where is the queen mother and the courtiers?"

"The empress wanted to visit the prince, but she was held back by the high mother. The courtiers saw His Majesty's face, they talked a lot, and even—"

The flash of swords flashed in Yiman's eyes, "What did the courtiers say?"

Lu Bo knelt down and lowered his head, "He said that His Highness the Crown Prince is weak and unable to inherit the throne."

Yiman sneered twice and played with the tea cup in his hand.

This group of drunkards only looked at the emperor's face. They were afraid that they would be used as cannon fodder by the emperor and aristocratic families during the New Deal reform.

Yiman sat up straight without any courtesy and took a piece of ginseng in his mouth. "What's the palace's reaction?"

"Some people in the palace are making sarcastic remarks, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince is doing much better this year, but he fainted when he was worshiping his ancestors last year."

Seeing that Lu Bo was too frightened to raise his head, he knew there must be something even worse to say.

But according to what they said, it meant that Zhou Yu's medicine worked.

Yiman wanted to visit the prince's womb, but as soon as he got up, his eyes went black, he felt dizzy, and he fell down on the chair again.

Forget it, Prince Liangdi is here, so her presence is of no use.

Yiman closed his eyes for a while to rest his mind, then opened his eyes and said calmly, "Lu Bo, take the people from Qingsi Palace to Qingning Palace to ask people to come with you. It is said that it is the mother's decree to close the palace to search the palace that is turbulent and stable for the government." People. Anyone who criticizes the Crown Prince and interferes with the stability of Daling will have their tongues cut out and sent to Ye Ting. If any concubines in the palaces obstruct it, they can be dealt with together and then report again."

"Yes, the servants lead the order."

"Songguo, go talk to your mother-in-law and tell Aunt Gao. If you don't punish her severely, your position as the heir apparent will be shaken. There must be someone behind the scenes this time."
