Dressed as a petite in the palm of a paranoid official

Chapter 80 There is no better way
"The empress is still taking a nap, and the fifth princess is also resting. If the guard Zhuo has something to do, please come back later."

"It doesn't take a while, just do it now." Zhuo Ji made a gesture, and immediately someone pressed Tao Yan into her arms.

Taoyan panicked now.

"What are you doing? This is the Queen's Palace, and I am the maid in front of the Queen's Empress! You dare to touch me, but have you ever asked my Empress?"

Zhuo Ji sneered, "It's better for your empress not to know about this, if she knows, even she will be taken down this time."

Taoyan's face changed suddenly, "How dare you! That's the empress!"

"The court lady Taoyan spread rumors in the palace, and dared to seriously injure the national teacher and the seventh princess. The following offends the superior. According to the laws of Great Chu, she should be executed."

As soon as the words fell, Taoyan's hands and feet went limp, maintaining the posture of being detained, and her whole body went limp.

Zhuo Ji drew out the saber from his waist, and that cold voice stimulated Tao Yan to scream, "Your Majesty, help me! Your Majesty, Empress, save this servant!"

The queen in the inner hall rushed over upon hearing the sound, and felt uneasy when she saw this posture.

"Bold and outstanding, you broke into the palace and detained the maids of the palace, what do you want to do?"

Zhuo Ji looked at the queen, neither humble nor overbearing, and repeated what he said just now, "Tao Yan spread rumors in the air, severely injured the national teacher and the seventh princess, according to the law of Great Chu, she should be beheaded."

"Presumptuous!" The queen came to Taoyan's side, and the imperial guards who were detaining Taoyan had no choice but to let go first.Taoyan, who was freed, hid behind the queen, trembling uncontrollably.

The queen glanced at her hopeless appearance, hid the disgust in her eyes, looked at Zhuo Ji again, and said, "This is a member of my palace, and if you say that he spread rumors and severely injured the national teacher, it means that what she did this time is wrong. Is it approved by the palace? Is it ordered by the palace?"

Does everyone know it well, but this is indeed not the time to have a falling out with the queen.

Zhuo Ji gestured again, and someone brought some court ladies and eunuchs in from outside the hall.

These palace maids and eunuchs had already been lynched, their bodies were covered with blood, and they looked like they were half dead, so they were hanging with their last breath.

"The subordinates have already found out, and these people have also confessed. They took money to spread rumors for others. The rumors were ordered by the empress's maid, Taoyan. If the empress doesn't believe it, she can interrogate herself. But these few days I don't have much breath left, so please be tighter if you want to ask."

The queen's face was livid, but she still refused to admit it.Even her own master doesn't recognize her, Taoyan now has some confidence, so naturally she also doesn't recognize her.

Zhuo Ji sneered, and asked the court ladies and eunuchs, "I'll ask one last time, who ordered it?"

With their last bit of strength, several half-dead people raised their fingers to Tao Yan who was hiding behind the queen.

The queen's heart skipped a beat, and she stepped away suddenly, afraid that those people were not referring to Taoyan, but herself.

Without the empress in front of her, Taoyan only had one thought in her mind when faced with the accusations of several people.

She is dead.

Just as this idea was settled, Tao Yan's head had already rolled down in front of the queen like an object following Zhuo Ji's movement of raising and lowering the sword.

The queen screamed and fell down, Chu Ruolan ran out from the side hall, froze in place frightened by the bloody scene.At this time, what she saw was not Tao Yan whose head had been beheaded, but the eunuch who was crushed to death by herself with a stool.

Looking at Zhuo Ji's menacing look, it was clear that he was here to take someone.

The life of an old eunuch is nothing to a princess, but Mo Xun found out about the fact that forsythia was infected with the plague by mixing things used by people who had been infected with the plague in the teacup of Yunxia Pavilion privately up?

Chu Ruolan panicked, her legs softened and she sat down.

Her movement attracted Zhuoji's attention.Being swept away by Zhuo Ji's cold eyes, Chu Ruolan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, always feeling that her end would be the same as Tao Yan's.

I saw Zhuo Ji swiping his sword again, and under a cold light, some blood splashed again.

With just one strike, the court ladies and eunuchs who identified Tao Yan died.

What shocked Chu Ruolan the most was not the lives of these maids and eunuchs, but that Zhuoji's eyes were always on her from the beginning to the end, as if all of this was done for her to see.

Mo Xun must have known!
Chu Ruolan panicked, her mind was in a mess, and she couldn't even think of an excuse.

When he was terrified, Zhuo Ji looked back indifferently, put the blood-stained saber back into the scabbard, and left with the team of imperial guards, leaving the corpses lying here and there. In the queen's palace, there was no thought of taking it away or asking someone to clean it up.

The queen woke up first, and ran over to grab Chu Ruolan up.Chu Ruolan looked flustered, and spoke inconsequentially, "Yes, I will go to find my father, he will commit the law of no king, and he will not take your mother into his eyes at all..."

"Ruolan!"

"How dare he break into the palace privately, and how dare he command the imperial guards? How dare he offend the empress! He did it on purpose to show me, the empress, he knows it all, they all know it!"

Snapped!
The Queen slapped Chu Ruolan on the face, which woke Chu Ruolan up completely.

Seeing that he had calmed down, the queen also calmed down, and ordered other people in the palace to clean up all the corpses on the ground, and then dragged Chu Ruolan into the inner hall.

"What should the mother do now?" Chu Ruolan gritted her teeth. "I'm going to find Brother Prince."

The queen said angrily, "What's the use of looking for him, just such an errand can't be done well." The queen suppressed the anger in her heart, "You find a trustworthy person to find your uncle, he has his own way."

The rumor has been found out, Mo Xun reported it to Emperor Chu, and Emperor Chu asked Jingzhao Mansion to post notices in various parts of the capital, and by the way, it also stated that the plague situation in the palace had stabilized to reassure the people.

However, the situation in the palace is not as simple as the notice said.

In fact, as long as the symptoms of the plague are stabilized, the next step of treatment will be much easier, but the symptoms that seem to have stabilized suddenly become severe for some reason.

This matter is so important that the imperial hospital only allowed young and strong people to stay in the palace, and Mo Xun called all the older ones to the Qin Tianjian.

After a few days of exhaustion, several old doctors had fallen ill, but Chu Yunni could only support this important task.

But always flipping through medical books at the back is not an option. After thinking about it, Chu Yunni decided to go back to the palace to treat those court ladies and eunuchs.

Upon learning of this, Mo Xun was the first person to stop her and expressly forbid her to step out of the Qin Tianjian!
Chu Yunni almost ran to his study and asked him why he couldn't go back to the palace.

"There are so many imperial physicians in the palace, I don't want you alone."

"But after so many days, so many imperial physicians, there is no one prescription that I can do. If I can go there in person, the lives of those court ladies and eunuchs may be saved." Afraid that he would not let them go, Chu Yun Ni slowed down again, "You collect evidence outside and trace the source of the disease. I treat people in the palace and save lives. This is the best way to achieve the best of both worlds. Master Mo, you can think of a better way than this ?"

In fact, there is really no better way than this at the moment.
