On the day of rebirth, I took my baby to find Jiuqiansui to recognize his relatives
Chapter 44 Presenting Evidence
The two of them soon came up with a mature plan in their minds.
That night, in the Governor's Mansion, Jiang Yanwan was preparing the tools needed for disguise.
Wu Junyao frowned and looked at her.
"This operation is very dangerous, you must be careful."
Jiang Yanwan smiled: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
Wu Junyao nodded and handed her a small bottle of Ma Fei San: "This medicine can make people sleep for a while, but it will not harm the body. You must use it with caution."
Jiang Yanwan took the medicine powder and put it in her arms. She said softly, "Everything is ready. I'm leaving."
Jiang Yanwan sneaked into the palace quietly, carefully avoiding the patrolling guards along the way, and finally arrived outside the bedroom of the Western Region concubine.
She found a secluded corner, took out the disguise insect, and carefully placed it on her face.
After a while, her appearance gradually became no different from that of a palace maid.
She walked to the palace gate and knocked.
"Who?" A soft voice came from inside.
"It's me, Xiaohong." Jiang Yanwan answered in an imitative voice.
The door slowly opened, and the maid who was guarding the door poked her head out.
Jiang Yanwan took advantage of her unpreparedness and gently sprinkled the Ma Fei San in her hand in front of her.
The maid fell to the ground instantly. Jiang Yanwan quickly supported her and placed her in a hidden place aside, and placed a poisonous insect around her neck.
Entering the bedroom, Jiang Yanwan saw luxurious decorations all around and a faint fragrance in the air.
She walked slowly towards the inner room and happened to hear whispers coming from behind the heavy curtains.
"Minister Jun, is it true that no one has noticed our plan?" That was the voice of the concubine from the Western Regions, with some worry in it.
"Don't worry, I have made all the arrangements. Neither your majesty nor the ministers will find out anything."
The Minister of War comforted him gently.
"His Majesty trusts me very much. He drinks the fragrant tea I prepare every night. He is completely under our control." The concubine from the Western Regions said proudly.
Jiang Yanwan held her breath, nodded slightly, placed a pot of tea on the table, and deliberately slowed down her hand movements.
I saw the Minister of War and the concubine from the Western Regions sitting opposite each other and talking intimately, their words were full of tenderness and sweetness.
"My Lord Shangshu, when can you take me away from here? When will our plan succeed?" The concubine from the Western Regions gave a seductive look.
The Minister of War chuckled: "Wait a few more days, until the batch of military equipment is transported to the capital, and then we can take action immediately. By then, we will usher in a brand new future."
Jiang Yanwan became more and more determined to expose their conspiracy as soon as possible.
She secretly wrote down these key information.
Jiang Yanwan looked at the screen window nervously, thinking about how to escape safely.
She knew she had to hurry and leave before the other party noticed.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the Western Region concubine suddenly turned her head and stared in her direction, and asked sharply, "Xiaohong, why didn't you bring my favorite lotus cake?"
Jiang Yanwan's heart tightened, but she quickly calmed down and urged the insect to establish a connection with Xiaohong.
This woman is really cunning. Xiaohong's memory clearly shows that she loves to eat osmanthus cake. Now, she actually says such words to set a trap!
She smiled slightly and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, don't you like sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most today? So I specially prepared sweet-scented osmanthus cake."
A trace of suspicion flashed across the eyes of the Western Region concubine, but then she smiled and said, "Really? I forgot about that."
The doubts on her face gradually disappeared, and she continued to chat and laugh with the Minister of War.
Jiang Yanwan let out a long sigh, quietly retreated to the door, and closed it carefully.
She gently called the insect, felt the faint connection, and confirmed that the maid was still unconscious.
She quickly walked out of the bedroom and returned along the same route.
In a corner, Xiaohong was leaning quietly against the wall.
Jiang Yanwan quickly removed the effects of the Ma Fei San and helped her sit up.
"Xiaohong, you fainted from exhaustion just now. Be careful and don't disturb other people. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the master knows that you are lazy." Jiang Yanwan patiently reminded her softly.
Xiaohong nodded dazedly, not yet fully awake.
Jiang Yanwan glanced around and made sure that no one else was paying attention to this place, then she quickly left the palace and returned to the Governor's Mansion.
Wu Junyao was relieved to see her return safely: "How is it, did you find anything?"
"The situation is complicated." Jiang Yanwan informed the details of the information she had gathered, especially the conspiracy involving the Minister of War and the concubines from the Western Regions.
After hearing this, Wu Junyao's face became serious: "It seems we must take action immediately."
Jiang Yanwan nodded and said firmly: "We need to find evidence as soon as possible to expose their disguise."
The two men quickly discussed countermeasures and decided to sneak into the residence of the Minister of War at night to investigate the specific situation of the batch of military equipment.
At midnight, Jiang Yanwan and Wu Junyao set out again.
The residence of the Minister of War was heavily guarded, so they could only sneak in from the backyard.
With the cover of night, they avoided the guards all the way and finally arrived at the warehouse in the backyard.
The two carefully looked around, and after making sure there was no one there, they quietly pushed the door open.
The warehouse was brightly lit, and several craftsmen were busy sorting boxes of weapons.
Jiang Yanwan whispered quietly: "There is indeed something wrong here. We must find something that can prove their conspiracy."
Wu Junyao nodded, and the two of them carefully looked through the box, trying to find key evidence.
Just as they were searching anxiously, they suddenly heard footsteps outside the warehouse door.
"Someone is coming!" Jiang Yanwan reminded in a low voice. The two quickly hid behind the box and waited for the movement of the person coming.
A middle-aged man strode into the warehouse, took a quick look, and ordered the craftsmen, "Finish it quickly. This mission is extremely important and must not be discovered!"
Jiang Yanwan recognized that this was the confidant of the Minister of War. She secretly thanked her luck for hiding in time, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.
After the man finished his inspection, he left, and Jiang Yanwan and Wu Junyao continued their search.
Finally, they found some secret documents at the bottom of a box, which recorded in detail the date and quantity of the weapons entering Beijing, as well as some suggestive marks.
"These are the evidence." Wu Junyao whispered, "Let's take them away quickly. We can't delay any longer."
The two men acted quickly.
Just as they were about to leave, a torch suddenly lit up at the other end of the warehouse and a guard was walking towards them.
"Who's there?" the guard asked sharply.
Jiang Yanwan and Wu Junyao looked at each other, then quickly separated and went around to the exit from hidden places on both sides of the warehouse.
The guard walked closer, saw nothing, muttered something, and turned away.
The two of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly fled the mansion.
The two returned to the Governor's Mansion, and the guards in the mansion hurriedly reported: "Sir Governor, Hassan has found a new clue."
Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan hurried to the inner hall, only to see Hassan holding a map with a nervous look on his face.
"Governor, this map is a detailed map of the places where the Minister of War hides people who traffic in human beings and smuggle goods. I took the risk to find it, and I hope it can be of help to you." Hassan said respectfully.
Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan looked at each other, with delight on their faces.
"Great! Now we have more crucial evidence." Wu Junyao nodded with satisfaction.
Jiang Yanwan nodded: "Yes, let's go to the Minister of War's den of thieves now and expose this matter thoroughly!"
After careful planning, Wu Junyao and Jiang Yanwan led a team of elite soldiers and quietly sneaked into the secret warehouse shown on the map.
Sure enough, they found a large number of imprisoned people from the Western Regions and various contraband items.
"These are the evidence of the Minister's guilt. Take them back and present them to His Majesty!" Wu Junyao ordered.
The next morning, the two men came to the palace gate again and asked for an audience.
This time, the emperor's attitude was obviously much colder. He took a look at the evidence presented and frowned.
"Why are you so stubborn about the matter of the Minister of War?" the emperor said in a low voice.
Jiang Yanwan knelt on the ground and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, please understand that we have no selfish motives at all. We only ask for justice for the world."
Wu Junyao also said in a deep voice: "I am willing to guarantee with my life that these evidences are true and reliable. I hope the emperor will be able to see through them."
The emperor nodded slightly and continued to look through the evidence.
Suddenly, his expression changed and his eyes were fixed on an account book.
"How dare you!" The emperor was furious. "Someone come!"
Several guards quickly entered the hall.
"Summon the Minister of War immediately. I want to personally investigate the crime!" the emperor ordered angrily.
Soon, the Minister of War was brought to the palace in a panic. Seeing the emperor furious, he knew that something was wrong.
"Minister Jun, do you admit your crime?" the emperor asked sternly.
The Minister of War had cold sweat on his forehead, and he forced himself to remain calm: "I don't know what your majesty is referring to. I have always been loyal..."
"Shut up!" the emperor shouted. "Look at what you have done!"
After he said that, he threw the evidence fiercely in front of the Minister of War.
The Minister of War turned pale and could no longer deny it.
At this moment, the concubine from the Western Regions suddenly broke into the palace and cried tenderly, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! All this was forced upon me by Minister Jun, and I dare not disobey..."
The emperor looked at her coldly: "I want to see what other lies you can tell!"
The concubine of the Western Regions burst into tears and knelt on the ground: "If your majesty does not believe it, you can ask the imperial physician to check the spices that I used. The spices contain mihun drugs, which is not what I want."
The emperor's eyes flashed coldly, and he immediately ordered the imperial physician to check. As expected, the spice had many problems.
"What an adulterous couple!" The emperor was furious. "Come here, take these two people to the prison and interrogate them strictly!"
The Minister of War and the concubine from the Western Regions were dragged out of the hall in a disgraceful manner.
