After the palace maid's counterattack, the tyrant was fascinated

Chu Yanzhou returned to the palace and told Xuanyuan Yin what happened in Kyoto, and told him that the people who spread the rumors had been arrested and imprisoned.

Xuanyuan Yin was furious after hearing this. Someone dared to do something small under his nose. It said angrily: "Can you find out any useful information? Have you found out the person behind the scenes?"

Chu Yanzhou looked at the veins on Xuanyuan Yin's face and told Xuanyuan Yin what he found out.

"Back to the Emperor, those few people refused to talk at first, but later they all surrendered after being tortured!"

"Who is it?" Xuanyuan Yin asked sharply, which showed his anger at this time.

Chu Yanzhou said cautiously: "Your Majesty, those people said they were ordered by the steward around Zuo Shilang to spread rumors in the capital and lead the people to make trouble. After the incident was completed, each of them would be given two hundred taels of silver. "

After Xuanyuan Yin heard who was behind the scenes, he threw the teacup on the side to the ground.

"Secretary Zuo?"

"Hmph, how can he be so capable? Is he willing to die? I think he is the master behind him. He can't stand it anymore and wants to take the opportunity to disturb the people's hearts!"

Chu Yanzhou knew the reason why Xuanyuan Yin was so angry. Zuo Shilang was supported by King Xiaoyao, so he was naturally on King Xiaoyao's side.

King Xiaoyao has always been at odds with Xuanyuan Yin. They are arrogant and domineering every time they meet, and they break up on bad terms every time.

During the last birthday party of the Queen Mother, they received a secret report that King Xiaoyao had brought many troops to Kyoto.

Fortunately, King Xiaoyao didn't cause any trouble in the end and left after attending the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.

And today's rumor spreading was found to be the work of Zuo Shilang. It is hard not to suspect that King Xiaoyao benefited.

After all, King Xiaoyao had shouted to Xuanyuan Yin many times that if he could not be the emperor well, then he should be replaced by someone else.

Therefore, it is also said among the people that King Xiaoyao is eyeing the throne. Although he is far away in Jiangdu, the power in King Xiaoyao's hands is not small, and many ministers have a close relationship with him.

This made Xuanyuan Yin very afraid. Even though King Xiaoyao got this title, he was not restless at all.

So when Xuanyuan Yin learned that the person behind today's incident might be related to King Xiaoyao, he was even more angry.

"Prime Minister Chu, go find out who leaked the news to Zuo Shilang. This matter has been blocked by me for a long time. They can actually know about it. Someone must be a traitor. We must find out who this person is and will not tolerate it. Otherwise, it may be a big hidden danger in the future.”

Xuanyuan Yin ordered that King Xiaoyao had always been against him. He thought that he was in his own territory and could not interfere with him, but he started to provoke him first.

Xuanyuan Yin's eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness. He was able to sit on the throne, and his hands were naturally stained with countless blood. Otherwise, why would there be no other prince except the virtuous king?

Before Xuanyuan Yin became the emperor, he had killed all his brothers. He would never leave any hidden dangers behind.

What's more, those people once wanted the lives of the three of them, mother and son, so how could he show mercy!

In fact, when King Xiaoyao was young, the relationship between uncle and nephew was quite good.

But I don't know when the relationship between the two began to become tense, leading to the current situation.

The reason why Xuanyuan Yin is called a tyrant is because he is merciless and will show no mercy to anyone. As long as he is provoked, there will only be one end.

That's why the ministers in the court are afraid of him. Once you anger Xuanyuan Yin, he will try countless ways to torture you.

Xuanyuan Yin had already disliked King Xiaoyao before. If King Xiaoyao takes action, I believe Xuanyuan Yin will definitely eradicate it.

Xuanyuan Yin ordered Chu Yanzhou to investigate the matter, especially to find out that it was related to King Xiaoyao, and to find out the traitor, otherwise whatever happened to them would be leaked.

……

the other side.

In a study room, a middle-aged man was drinking tea. He was hidden in the dark, so his true face could not be seen clearly.

He only heard one of his subordinates report to him: "Master, the matter was not settled. The court brought out finer salt. The people believed it was a rumor and did not make the matter a big deal. Moreover, our people were exposed."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man calmly put down the teacup in his hand and said, "How many people have been taken care of?"

"Everything has been taken care of. My subordinates bribed the steward around Zuo Shilang and asked him to find a few people in his identity. They just thought that the person who asked them to spread the rumors was Zuo Shilang and would not suspect us." Then The famous subordinate replied respectfully.

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "That's good, even if the matter doesn't get too big, it's not bad to turn your attention to King Xiaoyao, but it's a pity that things didn't develop as I wanted, and I can't see Xuanyuan Yin's anxious look! "

The middle-aged man said with a pity look on his face, wondering why he had such a deep grudge with Xuanyuan to cause him such big trouble.

After hearing this, the subordinate replied: "Master, originally things developed according to what we thought, but who knew that Prime Minister Chu suddenly brought a bag of fine salt, which instantly reversed the situation and blocked the people's mouths? , otherwise Kyoto would have been in chaos by now.

Moreover, my subordinates heard that the fine salt newly produced by the court this time is not only as fine as sand, but also whiter and flawless in color, and has a pure taste without any foreign smell. After the people tasted it, they were full of praise, which made the people most happy. Surprisingly, it was only ten cents more expensive than coarse salt. When the people heard this, they trusted the court even more! "

The subordinates told the middle-aged man everything they knew. The middle-aged man's eyes were dark. The originally planned things were suddenly disrupted. If there had not been the advent of fine salt, I am afraid that Kyoto would have been in chaos by now.

"This Concubine Ning is really powerful. First she made bombs, then she made pure white paper, and now she even made fine salt. She saved Xuanyuan Yin from fire and water every time. It would have been better if she was from our side. What a pity. She’s on the wrong team!”

The middle-aged man's tone became even colder as he spoke, because Yun Sanluo's presence had ruined his good deeds time and time again. It was obvious that Yun Sanluo had become a stumbling block.

"Master, this Concubine Ning is really powerful. She has caused us a lot of trouble. I wonder how Master will deal with it?"

The middle-aged man had no expression on his face and said in a cold tone: "This person will definitely not stand on a united front with us in the future. Instead, he will cause trouble for me. If necessary..."

The middle-aged man made a gesture, and his subordinate immediately said: "It's the master, I understand!"

"Be careful, don't let anyone take advantage of you!" the middle-aged man ordered.
