At the same time, at Prince Xun’s Mansion.

Yunzhi looked at Lord Guo Luoluo in front of him with an expressionless face.

Lord Guo Luoluo said to him, "Fourteenth Master, I came to you today to make a deal with you."

Yunyu asked, "Did you initiate the imperial examination fraud case?"

Guo Luoluo said: "Fourteenth Master misunderstood me. I didn't do it, but in the eyes of the emperor, it was Fourteenth Master who did it."

Yunzhi sneered, "I didn't do anything. If my brother finds out, he will definitely clear my name."

"What if the emperor found out that it was also the result of Fourteenth Master's actions?"

"What you mean by that is that you have fabricated evidence?"

"Of course," Guo Luoluo said with a smile, "As long as Master Fourteen agrees to cooperate with me, I will never pass on this evidence."

"what do you want to do?"

"Sit on the throne."

Yunyu: ???

His voice suddenly turned cold, no longer as calm as before.

"Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I am sober-minded."

"If this gets to my brother's ears, your Guoluo clan will be in trouble."

"Who will tell the emperor? Fourteenth Master, do you think the emperor will believe what you say now?"

"The one who covets his throne is not me, but you. Why doesn't he believe me?"

"I played this game very crudely, but the emperor has not yet said anything. Doesn't the Fourteenth Master understand what the emperor meant?"

Yunli lowered his head, thinking silently.

Guo Luoluo didn't urge him either.

"I promise you."

"Originally, the emperor's favorite son was me."

A message was sent out from Prince Xun's Mansion, and after several twists and turns, it was delivered to Yixiu's hands.

-----------------

Yixiu received the message.

"It turned out to be Guo Luoluo."

Now it is clear who Xiu Yue belongs to.

Unexpectedly, after Ling Yu, Guo Luoluo still had evil intentions.

It is a blessing for Concubine Yi and the Ninth Prince to have such a family.

But Yixiu couldn't just let them jump around here.

Although the person Guo Luoluo hated the most should be Yinzhen, she, Yixiu, could not escape.

"Where is the candidate who said at the beginning that he had obtained the test questions now?"

"As far as I know, he should be in the prison of the Ministry of Justice now."

Yixiu seemed to be thinking about something.

"I can go by myself."

Yixiu blocked Wen Xumo's words before he could finish them.

"Just give me a dose of poison."

Wen Xumo: ???

"Queen, this is..."

"Just pretend you know nothing."

Wen Xumo: Is the Fourteenth Master really that good, that it is worthy for the Queen to do such a cruel thing for him?

"The Queen..."

"Jianqiu, send Lord Wen out."

Wen Xumo: "I'll help, I'll help."

"I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"Let Jianqiu go with you to get it."

After getting the poison, Yixiu thought of someone.

That is Zhou Ninghai.

"Zhou Ninghai, I want you to help me with something."

Zhou Ninghai has Nian Shilan in his heart, and Yixiu is Nian Shilan's mother-in-law, so he is naturally loyal to Yixiu.

"Kill the candidate who claimed that someone leaked the test questions."

Zhou Ninghai did not hesitate at all, "I will kill him today."

"Pretend to commit suicide."

Yixiu didn't feel sorry for this person at all.

From the moment he colluded with Guo Luoluo and prepared to harm people, he was no longer a pillar of the Qing Dynasty.

Li Rongbao has already checked and found that this person has no hidden motives and is not under duress.

-----------------

"Your Majesty, I made you a bowl of soup."

"How did the Queen find time to come?"

Yixiu hesitated and said, "I shouldn't have come to disturb the emperor, but there is something I am really unsure about, so I came to ask the emperor."

"What's the matter?"

"This morning, Lady Rui asked me about the imperial examination fraud case, and she also said that she believed in Prince Xun, and that the ancestral precepts said that the harem should not interfere in government affairs."

"I have just started managing the harem, and I don't know if this is considered meddling in government affairs. Plus, the emperor has recently taken a liking to Concubine Rui, so I came to ask the emperor."

Yinzhen was silent.

Everyone was hoping that he and Yunli would have a quarrel.

Why should he do as they wish?

"Your Majesty, the Minister of Justice requests an audience."

"Announce him to come in."

Yixiu retreated obediently.

"Your Majesty, that scholar committed suicide in prison!"

"what happened?"

"The jailer said that he was fine this morning, but when he went to deliver food just now, he found that he had committed suicide. He must have taken poison and died with water pouring out of his seven orifices."

"Has anyone been there during this period?"

"There are still quite a few people coming to visit the prison."

After hearing this, Yixiu left silently.

There is a high probability that Yunli will be fine.

In Yinzhen's mind, he was afraid that the person behind the scenes killed that person in order to further divide him and Yunli.

As for the fact that the retired emperor had not taken any action, Yinzhen probably thought that Kangxi was just waiting and watching.

-----------------

On the second day, Yunli claimed to have found evidence to prove his innocence.

The person who met him that day has been found.

The families of the candidates were invited to take a look, and indeed many of them said that it was this person who had met Yunli.

Now the truth is out, these people were just misled.

In order to appease Yunli, Yinzhen promoted him to Prince Xun.

Prince Xun became the first prince conferred after Yinzhen ascended the throne.

Everyone said that even though Yinzhen had the best relationship with the Thirteenth Prince, he still sided with his younger brother in his heart.

The matter came to an end, but after a while, Yinzhen sent Yinzhen out on the grounds that he was needed to guard the border.

As for Xiu Yue, although Yinzhen did not touch her, he did not go to her place again.

-----------------

In Jingren Palace, Yixiu sat by the window looking through the account books, one of which was sent from the Jingshifang and the other from the Neiwufu.

"The expenditure in the palace this month has exceeded the budget. It seems that the successive major events have cost a lot of money." Yixiu frowned, closed the account book and asked, "Is the management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs not enough now?"

"Reporting to Her Majesty, we have been very busy in the palace this past year, and the staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not yet been fully replenished." Huichun took the account book and handed Yixiu a cup of green tea brewed with locust flower honey. It was spring now, and Yixiu loved eating flowers the most. She said that even if she stayed in the yard in the capital every day, she had to have flowers and plants to keep her company so that she could live a relaxed and happy life.

However, Huichun disagreed with Yixiu's conclusion. Look at the flowers and plants outside the window. They are blooming so lushly. I'm afraid there is no more beautiful garden than the one in Zijin City in the whole capital. What's wrong with that?

Yixiu: The daily workload is too heavy, you don’t understand…

"Let's start by recruiting some staff from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then gradually recruit staff from all the palaces." Yixiu instructed Huichun, "The emperor will also be selecting concubines in a few days, so let's start with the selection and slowly find palace maids to take charge."
