Chapter 130: This Is an Expert

Gu Yunyao looked at Amber who was brought in.

I don't have much impression, I didn't see her at the last palace banquet.

Amber lowered her head and quickly glanced around.

Gu Yunyao remained calm and looked at the little eunuch again.

The little eunuch knelt down beside him, not daring to raise his head.

"My servant pays homage to the emperor," Amber's voice contained a slight tremor.

"Hu Bo, this slave said that you ordered him to deceive the Lord of Yongning County and falsely convey my will. Is this true?"

Hu Hu said she was wronged: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely not the case. I just came back from Shengguang Temple to pray for the Emperor and your empress two days ago. I have never met the Lord of Yongning County. Why do you do this?"

Gu Yunyao saw that her face was pale, her eyes were red, and she was aggrieved, and she almost believed it.

The little eunuch turned his head in shock: "Hu Bo, how can you open your eyes and tell lies? You haven't seen Yongning County Lord, have I seen him?

If you hadn’t said it was the imperial concubine’s order, would I have been full enough to do such a stupid thing?”

"You also said that it was a matter of losing my head. I served my queen wholeheartedly. She was merciful and treated me very well.

Could it be that I am just full and have a good life, so I asked you to do this kind of thing?"

"you……"

Gu Yunyao sighed: "Yes, although the imperial concubine did feel sorry for me last time, I didn't make her angry this time. You said she instigated you, do you have any evidence?"

The little eunuch seemed to remember something and took out a gold leaf from his arms.

"Your Majesty, the County Lord, she gave this to the slave, saying it was a reward for doing this. The slave was really deceived and confused, and agreed to her in a single thought."

When Amber saw the gold leaf, her tight lips relaxed slightly.

"Your Majesty, this kind of gold leaf is found in almost every palace.

Gold leaves, golden melon seeds, etc. are originally used by the master to reward his slaves. It is not very clever for him to use them to slander his slaves."

The little eunuch's face turned red: "Humber, you..."

Shen Munan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stretched out his hand and twisted the gold leaf between his fingers.

"Is there one in every palace?"

"Back to your highness, yes," Amber replied.

"Is it the same in every palace?"

"Back to Your Highness, this kind of thing is made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is the same mold."

"No different," Shen Munan smiled contemptuously, "Come, go to the nearest palace, find three masters, and borrow one from each of them."

"yes."

"Spring mud."

"exist."

"Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs send someone to respond."

"yes."

"Father," Shen Munan said seriously, "This matter may seem small, but it is related to your dignity and dignity. If we don't find out, if these slaves follow your example tomorrow, wouldn't it be chaos?"

The emperor's eyes were heavy, he said nothing, and nodded slightly.

The eunuch who went to borrow gold leaves soon came back with three gold leaves in total. As expected, they were all the same.

Gu Yunyao's heart sank slightly. If this was the case, Hu Hu's crime would not be convicted, let alone Concubine Yun. Everything would fall on this little eunuch.

Three gold leaves were placed on the emperor's dragon writing desk. Shen Munan stretched out his palm: "Father, please take a closer look."

"The three coins on your table are used by all the palace masters, but the one here is different."

Gu Yunyao stared at it with wide eyes. At a quick glance, there was indeed no difference, but upon closer inspection, she could see the difference.

The one in Shen Munan's hand is slightly slender, and the tip of the leaf is a little to one side.

Just these two small differences make the entire gold leaf look much more elegant and beautiful.

The emperor's face became darker.

Just at this time, the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs also arrived.

"Let me ask you, how many types of molds do you have for making gold leaves?"

"Back to the emperor, it turned out that there was a kind of leaf. Later, Concubine Yun Guifei said that the leaves were not good-looking and she wanted to change them, so she drew a pattern and asked the slaves to follow it.

The imperial concubine said, don’t waste the original ones, just two kinds are enough, and the ones in Yun Guifei’s palace are only one kind.”

Gu Yunyao pinched the one in Shen Munan's palm and praised: "Sure enough, this one is more beautiful. The imperial concubine is really a beautiful lady. Such a small thing can be different from others."

The little eunuch immediately kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is aware of this! It was really Amber who instigated this slave to do it."

The emperor turned to look at Amber: "What else do you have to say?"

"Your Majesty, I am really unjust. I am from the same hometown as him. He has a humble position and loves to play with money. He cannot save money at all.

A while ago, he said that his mother-in-law was ill and asked his slave to borrow money. The slave gave him a gold leaf that his mother had rewarded.

Who knew he would use this to bite the slave today..."

"You're so generous just lending out gold leaves when you want to borrow money," Shen Munan sneered, "I wonder how many rewards you get on weekdays?"

"Back to the prince, I just felt pity for him. He was crying very sadly and said that I was going to die soon. This slave just..."

Before she finished speaking, Shen Munan walked to her side and stepped on the back of her hand with his toes.

Amber swallowed back the pain, but didn't dare to make a sound.

"The bracelet on your hand is of good quality, is it a reward?"

Eunuch Song personally stepped forward, grabbed Hu Huo's wrist, took off the bracelet, and held it in front of the emperor.

The emperor lowered his eyes and spoke calmly, with no hint of emotion or anger: "If I haven't seen it, this is one of the birthday gifts I gave to Concubine Yun this year."

Gu Yunyao secretly chuckled, Shen Munan's eyes were really poisonous.

Shen Munan seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look at her. She immediately gave Shen Munan a thumbs up quietly.

The corners of Shen Munan's mouth raised slightly, then quickly lowered them.

The blood on Amber's face faded, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead: "Your Majesty, this is a reward from the imperial concubine to this slave."

"Oh, she is quite generous."

As soon as he finished speaking, the little eunuch outside came to report: "Your Majesty, the noble concubine wishes to see you."

The emperor was silent for a moment: "Let her come in."

There was a jingle hanging outside the door. Gu Yunyao glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw Concubine Yun walking slowly.

Unlike the heavy makeup she wore at the palace banquet today, Concubine Yun Gui was wearing a lavender dress, which was elegant yet luxurious. The hem of her skirt was lightly trailed, like clouds and mist.

Gu Yunyao thought to herself, it really lives up to the name of "cloud".

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty," Concubine Yun said in salute, her posture like a willow tree.

"That's all, let's talk on our own."

"Your Majesty," Concubine Yun Gui smiled lightly, "Just now the imperial army brought amber. I don't know why?"

"You came just in time," the emperor pointed at the young eunuch, "do you know this person?"

Concubine Yun looked at him carefully, nodded and said, "I know him. He and Hu Hu are from the same hometown. I have met him twice and rewarded him."

Gu Yunyao thought about it, she was indeed a master who won the palace battle, and there was no flaw in her words. If Concubine Yun Gui came up and insisted that she didn't know the young eunuch, it would look deliberate.

Just as she was thinking about it, Concubine Yun Gui looked at her and said, "The County Lord Yongning is also here. I didn't want to say more, but the County Lord is also here, so I couldn't help but mention a few words.

The county head is also about to marry into the royal family, and every word and deed must represent the royal family. Although the military commander's family does not pay attention to etiquette, it should not be ignored.

Sichen just wanted to make a joke with the princess, but the county princess pushed her into the water, causing her to be unconscious now. Such reckless behavior, I'm afraid..."

Gu Yunyao wanted to explode as soon as she heard this. Oops, it seems that not only did she want Amber to retreat, but she also wanted to beat her up?

Do you think this lady is a vegetarian?
