Lu Caihuang came to the main hall angrily. After saluting His Majesty, her eyes quickly fell on Du Hongan.
"Du Hong'an, you are so bold. When I woke up in the morning, you actually sent palace guards to surround Kunning Palace. You also restricted the personal freedom of everyone in Kunning Palace, and even prevented me from leaving. It is really abominable!"
Du Hongan hurriedly explained: "Queen, please calm down, because last night I found out that a palace maid in Kunning Palace was pregnant and was brutally murdered. The palace guards must have explained it to the queen, so I will blockade Kunning Palace as soon as possible."
Investigate this matter, and if there is any offense, please forgive me."
At this moment, Lu Caihuang was very shocked. The palace maid's name was Xiu Hong. She was usually well-behaved and smart, and would never do anything excessive. How could she be pregnant?
Moreover, Lu Caihuang has already inquired with all the palace maids, and Xiuhong usually does not have any abnormality. Even if she sometimes has private meetings with eunuchs, there will be no problems.
Because the palace maid and the eunuch were together, this was a normal thing, and everyone turned a blind eye.
Lu Caihuang couldn't believe that she was pregnant, and she couldn't believe that Xiuhong was poisoned and killed!
But people from the Tai Hospital had examined the body and found that Xiuhong was indeed pregnant, and that she had been pregnant for more than two months.
It was precisely because of Xiuhong's death that Du Hongan brought a large number of palace guards to surround Kunning Palace and conduct a detailed investigation.
Lu Caihuang thought that there was something wrong with this matter and was full of conspiracy, so she hurried over immediately.
Lu Caihuang said: "Your Majesty, I am in charge of the affairs of the harem. Now that a palace maid is pregnant, I cannot escape the blame. Therefore, Your Majesty has given me full authority to handle this matter. I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
!”
Just as Luo Ningxin was about to speak, Du Hongan responded: "Empress, according to the rules of the harem, something happened on your side, so you must avoid suspicion and absolutely not participate in this matter. Leave this matter to me, and I promise to be there for you."
The murderer can be caught and brought to justice within three days."
Lu Caihuang's face was filled with chills: "Commander Du, I have said that I will personally investigate this matter, why don't you step back quickly!"
Lu Caihuang put pressure on the opponent.
At this time, Luo Ningxin said: "I believe that the Queen will definitely be able to handle this matter. Of course, if Commander Du is worried, you can assist the Queen in the investigation. In short, this matter will be left to the Queen to handle."
.”
Du Hongan was very dissatisfied when he saw that both his Majesty and the Queen did not allow him full authority to investigate the matter.
However, he had long thought that such a situation might arise, and he had a way to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, the Queen, it is actually very simple to investigate this matter. There are rumors that it is related to eunuchs. Let's gather all the eunuchs and check them, and then we can find the fake eunuch. The murderer is the fake eunuch!"
"Of course, for the sake of fairness, we will also gather all the palace guards together for a detailed investigation!"
As soon as this was said, many officials on site expressed their support.
"I agree with Commander Du's approach. In fact, it is not difficult to find the murderer. The murderer can be found by finding the fake eunuch."
"That's right, it doesn't matter whether the queen or the palace guards investigate this matter, it's the same. We must investigate the matter as soon as possible."
"Please also ask Your Majesty to order the sealing of the harem and investigate this matter thoroughly!"
Du Hongan was very satisfied when he saw that the civil and military officials were supporting him, and said: "Then please ask the Queen to investigate this matter thoroughly. Our palace guards will assist the Queen, seal off the entire harem, and invite all the eunuchs out from top to bottom, one by one.
Check them one by one!"
Lu Caihuang wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, and now Du Hongan has handed over the power to her.
Lu Caihuang agreed, but he couldn't stand Du Hongan's blockade of Kongning Palace and his daring to restrict his freedom, so he came to question him.
Lu Caihuang didn't know that Fang Chen was a fake eunuch!
"This method is good. I also want to find out the matter as soon as possible and seek justice for my maid. The murderer must be caught and brought to justice!"
The matter has been decided.
There was nothing Luo Ningxin could do to stop it!
After retreating from the court, Luo Ningxin asked Fang Chen to stay and let everyone else disperse.
Two people talk in secret.
"Fang Chen, this is a trap. Someone is deliberately targeting you, or your identity has been exposed. The other party is coming for you and will definitely not let you go. The only way now is to get you out as soon as possible.
palace!"
Fang Chen shook his head: "I definitely can't leave the palace now. The palace guards have blocked everything, and all the eunuchs must be checked. However, please don't worry too much, Your Majesty. I have ways to deal with this."
Luo Ningxin asked: "What can we do?"
Fang Chen did not say anything, but said mysteriously: "Your Majesty will know when the time comes."
Fang Chen gave it up, and Luo Ningxin didn't ask any more questions.
"By the way." Fang Chen said again: "This Du Hongan seems to be working for the Bai family."
Luo Ning sighed: "Du Hongan has some involvement with Tian Xuzi, but over the years, Du Hongan has been faithful to his duties and has not done anything illegal."
"The palace guards protect the safety of the harem. Everyone is carefully selected and has absolute loyalty to the court."
"But people change. Apparently Du Hongan has joined forces with the Bai family this time to put you to death."
Luo Ningxin was very worried about Fang Chen's safety, and she didn't expect that the enemy would attack so quickly, one after another.
It left her and Fang Chen breathless.
Fang Chen thought for a while and had a plan in mind.
"Your Majesty, I will take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of Du Hongan!"
Luo Ningxin was very surprised. Now Fang Chen has fallen into crisis and cannot protect himself.
But Fang Chen said that Du Hongan could still be eliminated. Is this possible?
"Fang Chen, what are your plans?"
Fang Chen took a deep breath and said, "I still need some time to deal with this matter."
"Your Majesty, please believe me. If someone wants to kill me, I will never let him have an easy time!"
Luo Ningxin finally felt relieved when she saw Fang Chen's confidence.
She believed that Fang Chen could handle this matter well.
Afterwards, Fang Chen said goodbye to His Majesty and went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Halfway through, he was blocked by Du Hongan and a dozen palace guards.
"Master Fang, please stay!"
Fang Chen stopped and said calmly: "Master Du, what's the matter?"
Du Hong'an said: "Master Fang, I believe that Master Fang is already very clear about what happened in court before. We have to check Master Fang's body because of his humble duties."
Fang Chen shouted coldly: "Bold, who are you? How dare you check my body!"
Du Hongan looked apologetic: "Master Fang, please forgive me. As long as Master Fang comes with me and checks, Master Fang can leave. It won't take long."
Fang Chen refused: "How can you inspect my body if you want? Get out of the way!"
