The little concubine with many children and good fortune wins the harem by doing nothing

Chu Junze has always had great trust in Zhan Ping!

It is not only because of his strong ability to investigate cases, but more importantly, he has an upright character and is not afraid of imperial power.

Among so many ministers in the court, not many of them are actually capable. Among them, those officials who always remember their original aspirations are those who come from humble backgrounds.

The other ministers basically had no merits or faults and just came here to get by every day, just to maintain the glory of their family.

At this time, seeing the emperor coming over, he immediately kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

"My dear, please stand up!"

After seeing him stand up, Chu Junze asked, "How is the case I asked you to investigate going? Have you prepared all the witnesses and evidence?"

Hearing his words, Zhan Ping directly presented the prepared evidence: "Your Majesty, these are the bad things done by Luo Yi and even Marquis Ding'an."

Seeing this, Eunuch Xi immediately stepped forward, took the evidence handed over by Lord Zhan, and handed it to the emperor.

Chu Junze looked at the evidence seriously, but the more he looked, the angrier he became.

Before, he thought that the crime of the man named Luo Yi was just what the Censor Chen said.

I didn't expect this guy could be even more shameless and have no bottom line.

"Zhan Ping, you have done a great job on this case. When you return, handle it quickly. I will reward you at the court tomorrow morning."

Chu Junze wanted to show those aristocratic families at tomorrow's morning court session that their status and position were not their umbrella of protection, but on the contrary, their identity should be the key to restraining them.

Zhan Ping naturally knew what he meant, so he took the initiative to reply: "Your Majesty, thank you for the reward."

"No need to be polite. This time, I'm really putting you in a difficult position. After all, the Ding'an Marquis's Mansion is a tough nut to crack. It's probably not easy to get past Empress Dowager Shu alone."

However, Zhan Ping and Chu Junze are actually worried about different things.

Fortunately, he had sorted out his thoughts and had also thought of a way to deal with it, so he took the initiative to say to Chu Junze: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. I have my own way to deal with it. Besides, there is also Censor Chen!"

Thinking of Censor Chen's mouth and his bad temper, it is estimated that even Empress Dowager Shu would not dare to confront him head-on.

When Chu Junze thought that he would see Marquis Ding'an being humiliated during the morning court tomorrow, his mood instantly improved.

As for Empress Dowager Shu, let her continue to live happily for now. After all, the higher you stand, the harder you will fall.

It was not until Zhan Ping left the Zi Chen Hall that he collected his thoughts.

Eunuch Xi stepped forward and added some tea to his teacup before he said softly, "This old servant looks at Lord Zhan and he is truly a handsome man. No wonder Princess Jia has always been obsessed with him."

In fact, what they didn't know was that Princess Jia had even given Zhan Ping an aphrodisiac in order to force him to marry her.

Fortunately, Zhan Ping was a very thoughtful and intelligent person, so he quickly discovered something was wrong.

However, since then he also fell in love with many girls in Beijing, because the convenience of his position allowed him to know the people in almost every household.

Especially those noble ladies, he really didn't want to get involved with them at all.

Among them were the noble ladies who conspired with Princess Jia to drug him.

So when the emperor told him privately that he was going to deal with the aristocratic families and the royal relatives, the introverted him couldn't help but laugh.

After laughing, he began to work hard to become the "knife" in the emperor's hand!

He investigates cases that others dare not investigate, and he arrests people that others dare not arrest. In short, he strikes wherever the emperor points!

It is precisely because of his outstanding abilities and fearlessness that he has been promoted to the position of Chief Justice of the Dali Temple at the age of 24.

The reason why Eunuch Xi said this was because Princess Jia was plotting something recently.

Since the princess was not the emperor's biological sister, they did not have much contact on a daily basis, but he was worried that the princess would make things difficult for Zhan Ping.

This would affect Lord Zhan's ability to share the emperor's worries, which would be bad.

Seeing the worry in his eyes, Chu Junze paused for a moment and immediately came to his senses.

He was heard shouting into the void: "Yin Qi, go and protect Lord Zhan during this period of time. Make sure he is safe."

"Yes, I obey!"

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing. I have already arranged for someone to arrange a small kitchen for Madam Concubine Jieyu, and I have also found two cooks."

"Well, you did a good job on this matter. I will reward you with three months' salary!"

Chu Junze was naturally satisfied with his arrangements, and he was also confident in Eunuch Xi's work.

"Your Majesty, I have something else to say."

It was rare to see him with this expression, so Chu Junze asked, "What else do you want to say? Just tell me!"

After thinking it over again and again, Eunuch Xi replied: "Your Majesty, Cuizhuxuan's meals have never been for the status of a concubine, and Cuizhuxuan has only two servants, which is not in compliance with regulations.

Also, according to palace rules, since Concubine Jieyu slept with you last night, you should give her a gift and even raise her status."

After hearing his words, Chu Junze finally remembered what he had forgotten.

Originally, everyone in the harem was resentful about Concubine Su's incident.

And until now he hasn't given her the reward he should have given her. It is estimated that the news of Concubine Su falling out of favor has already begun to spread in the harem.

"Eunuch Xi, please go to my private storehouse and get some jewelry that is suitable for the status of a concubine.

Oh, and there is also the flowing brocade, the blood jade bracelet, the eight-treasure gilded hairpin, the East China Sea night pearl...

Anyway, take it and send it to her immediately. Also, issue an imperial decree to promote her to Zhaoyi and bestow the character Fu on her!"

"Yes, slave, go right now!"

At this time, the news in the harem was that Concubine Su was not promoted despite having served in the emperor's bedchamber.

Among them, Queen Ning Wan'er and Imperial Concubine Wei Mingxue were the happiest. As for Concubine Yu, she was still in bed resting for her pregnancy. Of course, this did not prevent her from hating Su Qianqian.

As for the other newcomers, although they were happy that Concubine Su seemed to be out of favor, they also envied her for being the first to serve the emperor in bed.

Eunuch Xi was very quick. After he had prepared everything, he took the gift that the Emperor had given to Lady Su and walked towards Cuizhuxuan.

On the way, they met servants and maids from various palaces. After looking at them, they quickly ran away.

Xi Gonggong always feels that their behavior is really speechless.

There is nothing in the entire harem that the emperor doesn't know. Everyone stretches their hands so far, as if they really think their lives are too long!

But it’s better this way. When the harem becomes chaotic, the emperor can control those people from the previous dynasty.

"The imperial edict has arrived, please accept it, Your Majesty!"
