...

The ministers were furious and requested that Zhao Wujiang be punished.

The empress' face was as cold as ice. She gently tapped the armrest of the dragon chair with rhythm.

"Dong dong dong...dong dong...bang...dong dong...dong dong dong..."

"Inform Zhao Wujiang to make preparations..."

The empress groaned, the shadow behind her swayed, and the wind caressed her.

You are dead, Zhao Wujiang... Chen Anbang, the Minister of War, sneered in his heart and glanced at his colleagues with his big eyes.

"Bah!" The eunuch in front of the palace waved his whip to signal everyone to quiet down.

The empress frowned and said in a deep voice:

"Come here, go and bring Zhao Wujiang up!"

...

Yangxin Hall, the emperor's bedroom.

Zhao Wujiang had been fighting with Dugu Mingyue for four hours last night, but he was still full of energy at this moment. He was trying to awaken other souls in his body.

The wind in the room suddenly roared, and a dark blue figure broke into the room, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully to Zhao Wujiang:

"Old slave Jia meets Mr. Zhao on the fifteenth day.

Now in the court hall, the Minister of War is suing Mr. Zhao for reselling medicinal materials from the imperial hospital, and the emperor asked this old slave to inform you to make preparations in advance!"

Zhao Wujiang was lucky, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and said calmly:

"Er San, go and bring Wang Youcai's body over!"

...

Above the court, as the empress' order to summon Zhao Wujiang was issued, the officials began to discuss again.

Compared with the selection of the Northern General, they discussed Zhao Wujiang's "reselling of medicinal materials" more intensely.

After all, Dugu Tianqing served as the general of the Northern Territory, so they didn't have much objection. Furthermore, Dugu Tianqing had the entire Dugu family as his back, and most of the courtiers knew they couldn't afford to offend him.

But Zhao Wujiang was different. He was a young eunuch with no background, and he unknowingly provoked most people. So if he didn't die, who would die?

The ministers continued to criticize Zhao Wujiang verbally and in writing, and the queen's anger continued to rise in her heart as she listened on the dragon throne.

At the same time, there was another person whose anger was rising, and he was Dugu Yihe.

In Dugu Yihe's opinion, Zhao Wujiang not only had great potential, but also helped the Dugu family with the Northern General. Now Chen Anbang is suing Zhao Wujiang for reselling medicinal materials. In his opinion, it is most likely due to yesterday's unhappiness.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I think there must be something fishy about this matter!"

Dugu Yihe flicked his sleeves and stood out of the queue:

"The Taiyuan Hospital is heavily guarded. How did Zhao Wujiang get past the Taiyuan Hospital's defense and steal the medicinal materials?

If this is true, it only proves that there is something wrong with Taiyuan Hospital’s defense!”

Seeing someone standing up to speak for Zhao Wujiang, the officials were about to retort when they realized it was Dugu Yihe, the head of the Dugu family. They immediately fell silent and only dared to mutter a few words in their hearts.

The Dugu clan is so powerful that they must be stupid to offend the head of the Dugu family for a little eunuch.

Chen Anbang's thick beard and hair trembled, and he was filled with anger:

"Does Brother Dugu think that I deliberately framed Zhao Wujiang?

Huh, he is a little eunuch, but he is worthy of me, a minister of the Ministry of War, to plot a trap?"

"So there is an idiom called...shameless!"

A sneer resounded through the palace, and the Minister of War was furious. Following the gazes of the ministers, he looked around and saw a figure of Feng Shen Yulang appearing at the door of the palace. It was none other than Zhao Wujiang.

Zhao Wujiang's eyes were like daggers, dragging a corpse into the main hall slowly.

The ministers were about to speak out against Zhao Wujiang, but when they saw the corpse dragged by Zhao Wujiang, they swallowed and chose to remain silent.

Zhao Wujiang dragged Wang Youcai's body and kept scanning the ministers with his eyes, few of them dared to look at him.

"Zhao Wujiang, how dare you not kneel down when you see the emperor!" Chen Anbang said angrily.

Zhao Wujiang glared at him fiercely, then put down Wang Youcai's body, clasped his fists and bowed:

"Slave, please see your Majesty. Long live your Majesty."

Seeing Zhao Wujiang so calm, the empress breathed a sigh of relief:

"There are priorities, don't kneel down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Wujiang glanced at the ministers with sharp eyes, pointed at Wang Youcai's body and said loudly:

"Wang Youcai, the warehouse manager of the Twelve Dizhi Medicine Warehouse of the Imperial Hospital, used his authority to resell medicinal materials during his tenure. He was caught by the manager in the harem. He fled in fear of crime and was shot to death by the guards!

The manager is thinking, how dare he, a small warehouse manager, resell medicinal materials? Someone must have instigated it, don't you think so, Mr. Chen?"

The ministers were in an uproar. Zhao Wujiang had something to say, and they all looked at the Minister of War.

"You are such a slanderer!"

Chen Anbang's strong body trembled:

"I see clearly that you colluded with him, working together internally and externally to resell medicinal materials, and now the uneven distribution of the spoils has caused disputes, and you murdered him!

You embezzled money from the treasury and murdered registered officials, Zhao Wujiang, I think you are tired of living!"

"Zhao Wujiang has already informed me of the malfeasance in his duties and reselling medicinal materials in Tai Hospital. I ordered him to investigate. It was he who investigated Wang Youcai..."

The empress sat on the dragon throne and spoke majestically at this moment.

The ministers were excited and shocked. Chen Anbang looked at the emperor in disbelief, and then at Zhao Wujiang who was staring at him indifferently, shouting in his heart.

How could it be, how could it be?

Didn't Sun Yiku tell me that Zhao Wujiang stole medicinal materials?

how so?

But just when Chen Anbang was confused.

"Mr. Chen, the emperor is far-sighted and wants to take a long-term approach to fishing for big fish. This matter is also kept secret. How did you know about the secrets of the harem?"

Zhao Wujiang raised his sword eyebrows, put his hands behind his back, and asked sternly:
Chapter completed!
