I am Li Zhi

Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

"Minister Zhang Luo sees the emperor." In less than an hour, Zhang Yushi came to the imperial study room, deliberately pretended not to see Wu Meiniang, and knelt down to Li Zhi.

Seeing this, Wu Meiniang nodded in her heart, knowing the current affairs is indeed a talent.

"I told Zhang Yushi to come here for this purpose." Li Zhi said as he handed the memorial to Yuan Bao.

Zhang Yushi took the memorial in Yuan Bao's hand and carefully looked through it.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to investigate this matter again?" Zhang Yushi raised his head and asked after reading every word.

"That's true. If the corruption is true, we must investigate all the people involved in the case in the family. Then I will punish them one by one." Li Zhi nodded and said.

"I obey the order." Zhang Yushi kowtowed and replied.

"Go down, pack up today, and leave for Linchuan tomorrow." Li Zhi waved his hand and said.

"Why does Your Majesty want to find out who is involved in the case?" Zhang Yushi left, Wu Meiniang asked the doubts in her heart.

"Although corruption is a felony, it should not harm family members." Li Zhi truthfully expressed his thoughts.

"But as the saying goes, your majesty is not afraid of cutting grass and roots..." Revenge from her family? Wu Meiniang didn't say it clearly in the second half of the sentence.

"I remember hearing a saying that if you kill too many people on the battlefield, one day the knife will return to you. Even if you cut the grass and roots, how can Meiniang be sure that the other party has no close friends to avenge the other party?" Li Zhi disagreed. replied.

If it is wronged, it can be scary, but if the crime is deserved, then those who will avenge their families will not have any great achievements.

After hearing this, Wu Meiniang thought about Li Zhi's words.

Li Zhi feels that Wu Meiniang is like a sponge, no matter what he instills, the other party will absorb it.

The following days were spent in this mode of Li Zhijiao and Wu Meiniang's learning. Gradually, she found that Wu Meiniang not only absorbed what she taught each other, but also added her own understanding and perception. Zhi Zhi felt that it was worth learning.

This is something Li Zhi feels ashamed of. She is only as good at absorbing as the people taught in the modern compulsory education, but Wu Meiniang is like the people who come out of free education abroad. She has her own unique style of handling everything.

The two slowly changed from her teaching her to learning from each other, and both of them enjoyed this kind of life very much.

Li Zhi felt that the time was almost up, so sometimes he pretended to have a headache and secretly let Wu Meiniang handle some memorials alone. At first, the other party was a little reluctant to let her go, and asked her everything before making a decision. Later, seeing that she was often impatient because of the headache, he then Truly handle it independently.

But as the saying goes, prosperity must decline, and there will always be some people or things to add to the troubles when the life is too comfortable.

"Your Majesty, Bai Cairen is asking to see you." The voice of Yuan Bao's announcement came from outside the imperial study.

Bai Cairen? After thinking for a while, Li Zhi remembered Bai Lianhua. The other party may have lost patience recently and stopped sending some food, so she gradually forgot about this person.

Chapter 27

"Let her in." Li Zhi thought for a while and said.

Bai Lianhua walked into the imperial study room and saw that Wu Meiniang beside Li Zhi had a glint in her eyes. This time it was Concubine Xiao Shu who took the lead, so don't blame her.

"Lotus pays homage to His Majesty." The white lotus bird bowed and saluted.

"Get up, why is Bai Cairen looking for me?" Li Zhi waved his hand casually and asked.

"Lianhua passed by the Queen's Palace a few days ago and saw some strange things. She didn't pay attention to them at first, but then His Majesty started to have a headache. After thinking about it, Lianhua thought it best to report to His Majesty." Bai Lianhua replied sincerely.

No wonder Bai Lianhua has been silent these days, she was holding back her big move, Li Zhi thought with a fake headache.

"Oh? What did Bai Cairen see?" Li Zhi asked pretending to be unclear.

"Lianhua doesn't know either, but it looks like she's doing something strange." Bai Lianhua shook her head and said.

"What's the matter? Yuan Bao!" Li Zhi suddenly stood up and called out the door, seeing Yuan Bao coming in, he ordered: "Call the queen here."

Yuan Bao took the order to leave, and Li Zhi was fidgeting and walking around. She felt that this was strange. How could this white lotus suddenly know such a clever method? One thing, it can be said to be linked together.

"Your Majesty, be safe and don't be impatient. The Empress will be here in a while. Your Majesty is not feeling well, so please sit down first." Wu Meiniang said while pulling Li Zhi back to his seat.

Li Zhi looked at Wu Meiniang and smiled when he heard the words.

Bai Lianhua looked at everything, her eyes darkened, Wu Meiniang, you are about to die, you will not be proud for a long time.

"The concubine pays homage to His Majesty, why is Your Majesty looking for a concubine?" Wang Xiruo looked at Li Zhi with a puzzled face and asked.

"Bai Cairen just told me that the queen used to do things in the bedroom, is there such a thing?" Li Zhi looked at Wang Xiruo with a gloomy face and asked.

"This... my concubine is terrified. I have never done this before. This is a false accusation, Your Majesty." Wang Xiruo knelt on the ground in astonishment and replied.

Li Zhi looked at Wang Xiruo speechlessly, speaking of it, this was the second time that Wang Xiruo knelt down to her since he met Wang Xiruo, and the first time was for Xiao Yue.

"Does Bai Cai have evidence to say that the Empress Dowager?" Besides, Wu Meiniang is also Wang Xiruo's ally now. Although she doesn't know whether what Bai Lianhua said is true or not, she can't justify it if she doesn't open her mouth.

"This... Lianhua saw it with her own eyes." Bai Lianhua was stopped by the question, but Concubine Xiao Shu didn't give any evidence.

"Your Majesty, in order to show my innocence, my concubine is willing to have the palace searched." Seeing that there is no evidence, Wang Xiruo hastily said.

"...That's fine, Yuan Bao told Concubine Xiao Shu about this matter, and asked her to lead someone to search the palace." Li Zhi gave Yuan Bao instructions after pondering for a moment.

If this matter was framed by Bai Lianhua intentionally, evidence would be left behind, and Xiao Yue could help cover it up if she went to investigate.

Yuan Bao took the order to leave, and the imperial study room was completely quiet for a while.

"Your Majesty, the weather is cold, let the Empress get up first." Wu Meiniang broke the silence.

"Get up." Li Zhi glanced at Wang Xiruo upon hearing this, and said calmly.

Tsk, if Wu Meiniang didn't speak, it might be difficult for Li Zhi to find a step for her to get up.

Wang Xiruo felt a little emotional in her heart, this Wu Meiniang has changed so much, maybe it's the credit of Li Zhi, right?

Then there was another silence, which lasted until Concubine Xiao Shu came in.

"How is the concubine's investigation?" Li Zhi asked with a calm expression when he saw Concubine Xiao Shu walk in.

"Your Majesty, I didn't find anything, but..." Xiao Yue stopped meaningfully when she said this.

"But what?" Li Zhi asked with a frown.

"The concubine also searched all the halls of concubines in the empress's palace, only the hall of Wu Zhaoyi remained unchecked." Xiao Yue said what she hadn't finished.

After Xiao Yue finished speaking, Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang were startled at the same time.

Li Zhi was the first to react. Seeing Wang Xiruo's calm expression, she was a little speechless. In vain she was worried about him just now. It was the other party who co-authored with Xiao Yue to trick Wu Meiniang.

And Wu Meiniang looked at Concubine Xiao Shu's determined expression, and knew that the target this time was not Wang Xiruo but herself, and the leader was probably Xiao Yue.

"Aren't you talking about the queen? What's going on with Meiniang?" Li Zhi asked with a frown pretending to be puzzled.

"Your Majesty, according to what Eunuch Yuan conveyed to his concubine, it happened in the empress's palace, but there is no proof that it was done by the empress herself, so everyone in the entire empress's palace is suspicious." Xiao Yue calmly explained Confused.

"Your Majesty, the Qing is self-clearing, and Meiniang is willing to accept the palace search." Wu Meiniang stepped forward at this time and said calmly.

Even if you can't avoid it, it's better to propose it, so that there may be room for turning around, Wu Meiniang thought to herself.

"Okay, let's search." Seeing that he had agreed, Li Zhi nodded in agreement.
