Parents are busy farming

Among the officials of the six ministries, apart from the people of the Hong family, only the Minister of Personnel knew something about what this little girl had done.

However, what he knew was only superficial, and he did not regard her as too important, so he followed everyone else and sent people to investigate.

Their focus was mainly on the investigation and they did not take any action to harm Ye Zifen.

However, the people sent there were like headless flies, and they didn't find out anything. They only knew that after people entered Fu Ke Lai, the door of Fu Ke Lai was closed as if by magic, and no one could enter or leave.

When the Minister of Personnel found out that he could not find out anything, he stopped sending people to investigate.

However, this may not be the case for others.

Those who had learned the news and were connected with Lingnan Observation had already deduced Ye Zifen's key role in this matter like detectives.

So they sent someone to teach Ye Zifen a severe lesson, so that she would understand that the water in the capital is as deep as the sea, like a bottomless abyss, which is frightening.

However, what is even more shocking is that no one expected that a mere small restaurant would have such a strict defense system.

The people they sent out were dressed in black, like ghosts. As soon as they stepped into Fukelai's territory, they were immediately surrounded by a group of people.

Without even asking a single unnecessary question, they started fighting straight away, with a very clear purpose - whoever comes, get away!

Moreover, these people don't care about the rules and moral constraints of the underworld at all. There is no such thing as a fair fight. A one-on-one fight is simply a fantasy!

They usually adopt the strategy of using the majority to bully the minority, with several people besieging one person.

Not only that, arrows were shot down from the third floor from time to time, making it difficult to defend against.

Faced with such an attack, they could only choose to keep retreating, but no matter how fast they reacted, they could not completely avoid the danger.

From the moment they stepped into Fukelai, they were in trouble, just like being locked up and beaten.

Some people attempt to commit suicide by taking poison. Unfortunately, they feel weak all over before they even have time to bite the poison pill in their mouths.

"Oh no, we're poisoned!" When one of them shouted this, he immediately fell to the ground.

The people who had just waved their swords at them retreated and made room for them.

The people lying on the ground saw a woman slowly walking down the third floor.

The girl looked down on them and said softly, "Tie them all up and take out the poison from their mouths. Maybe someone will come to take them away soon. We must not let our guard down."

She firmly believed that the emperor must have sent people to keep a close eye on this place, and such a big commotion would surely attract the emperor's attention soon.

A few people started to tie up the man, while the others were talking happily on the side.

"Doctor Shangguan's medicine is really powerful! Just a little bit of it burned in the incense burner, and all these people fell down. You know, in terms of martial arts, they are all better than us! Fortunately, we took the antidote beforehand."

Another person echoed, "Yes! Do you think they are stupid? They have such advanced martial arts skills, so why would they follow such a person? Even if they go to the border to kill the enemy, it is better than doing such a heartless thing! It's such a pity!"

At this time, Ye Zifen said, "They may have been trained by their master since they were young, and they may have survived through extremely cruel competition. In their minds, they only obey their master's orders."

The people around him were shocked when they heard this: "What's the difference between them and dogs? They have completely forgotten that they are living people!"

These children who came out of the village were very kind-hearted and expressions of compassion appeared on their faces.

However, they don’t know that sometimes the truth spoken by honest people can be the most hurtful.

At this time, those people who were completely powerless felt extremely uncomfortable as if they were struck by lightning after hearing their words.

And the fact was just as Ye Zifen had expected. As soon as the sound of fighting was heard here, someone over there couldn't wait to pass the news to the palace.

The emperor was furious when he heard the news. He never expected that these people would knowingly commit such a cruel thing.

So he hurriedly sent people to protect the child, and sent someone to notify the Dali Temple, ordering them to go there quickly to check what was going on.

However, when the people sent by the emperor were about to take action, they found that everything inside had already been quiet.

When the officials from the Dali Temple arrived at the scene, what they saw was a group of people who were tied up.

Ye Zifen walked down slowly from the upstairs and said to the person who came, "I wonder who is this gentleman? Since you are an official from the Dali Temple, please take these people away!"

The officials of the Dali Temple looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never dreamed that there would be such a scene in front of Jingmen. Moreover, the other party asked them to take the person away for no reason. This was too easy to talk to, and it made them a little at a loss.

In fact, more than one person sent his men that night.

However, because the people in front alarmed the enemy, those hiding in the dark did not dare to act easily and thus successfully avoided them.

When these people returned and reported the situation here to their respective masters, some of them began to become anxious like ants on a hot pan.

In fact, they did not do anything too outrageous, they just accepted bribes from Lingnan officials.

But at this moment, it was too late to say anything.

As the saying goes, if you pull out a radish, you'll bring out the mud. How can they escape?

In addition, they originally planned to send personnel to Lingnan to block the news, but the emperor had already made it clear when discussing the matter with them yesterday that he had sent special personnel to Lingnan and controlled the relevant personnel before the three officials arrived.

The emperor said: "The innocent will be innocent. Those who have not committed any crime need not be afraid, but those who have committed any crime will have no chance of escaping."

At this moment, if they sent people to Lingnan again, wouldn't they be walking into a trap, giving others a handle and even accelerating their own demise?

But even so, they knew that the Dali Temple would find out about them sooner or later. After all, truth cannot be hidden! So, some people could not sit still and quietly sneaked into the palace to plead guilty at night.

The emperor never dreamed that before the Dali Temple had even started investigating, someone would come to him impatiently to apologize.

Moreover, after meeting him, he confessed everything about his bribery like beans spilling out of a bamboo tube.

And everyone was kneeling on the ground and couldn't get up.
