The moon is like water, and the bright moon is in the sky.
After a busy day, Ye Fan drank a few sips of tea and rested early.
Not long after, a dark shadow came to Qianqing Palace.
Ye Fan woke up immediately, saw the black shadow in front of him, and saluted with his hands clasped in fists.
"See Master!"
The dark figure in front of him pulled off the black scarf on his face, revealing an exquisite face.
It is Princess Xuanyu.
Xuanyu sat on a mahogany chair nearby and said calmly: "The Empress, Fang Chen and others will be back in two or three months."
"According to our plan, the identity of the empress will be revealed tomorrow!"
Ye Fan immediately took the order.
"It's the master. Everything will be done according to the master's arrangements. The true face of the empress will be revealed and all his crimes will be exposed."
"When he and Fang Chen come back, the Empress will have no place to stand! Catch them all in one fell swoop!"
Xuan Yu was very satisfied in her heart.
Ye Fan now acts as the emperor and controls everything in the court.
Today, Ye Fan, the six ministers, and the major officials have all been infected by poisonous insects and are taking orders from Xuanyu.
All plans went very smoothly.
The next step is to put the empress to death.
After explaining everything, Xuanyu left.
"Congratulations, Master!"
Ye Fan saw Xuan Yu disappearing into the night, and he spat directly next to him.
"It's a dream to control me!"
"When I truly become an emperor, I will find you one by one and catch them all!"
"The little Daqian Dynasty still wants to make us, Da Yan, puppets. It's simply ridiculous!"
…
Early morning the next day.
Ye Fan and hundreds of civil and military officials went to court.
Nothing major has happened in the country recently.
What everyone is most concerned about is the war between Dayan and Dakang.
Of course, everyone believes that this war will be won!
As the weather gets hotter recently, the economy in the north is not doing so well.
After Ye Fan had finished handling the memorials from several officials, suddenly, the eunuch's father-in-law asked to meet with him.
If anything happens to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it should be handled by the harem.
But now, His Majesty is on the march in person, and the Queen is not in the harem.
Therefore, many things will be dealt with upwards.
Eunuch Zhang came to the main hall anxiously and knelt on the ground to salute.
"Master Ye, I discovered something major in the harem. This matter is of vital importance, so I will report it to Master Ye as soon as possible!"
This is the plan arranged by Ye Fan.
He deliberately pretended not to know anything: "Eunuch Zhang, why are you so panicked?"
"If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Eunuch Zhang wiped a handful of cold sweat from his head: "Master Ye, this morning, my men were cleaning the cabinet of His Majesty Qianqing Palace's bedroom as a routine. When cleaning the cabinet, I found that there were some small cracks in the cabinet door."
"The small cabinet reported to me, so we planned to dismantle the entire cabinet and recast a new one. As a result, we found a hidden compartment in the cabinet, and there are some secrets behind the hidden compartment..."
In the palace, anything used by the emperor must not be damaged in any way.
Even if there are cracks, small lines on the floor, or small marks on the things used, they will be removed and replaced with new ones.
When all the officials in court heard that this was a secret about the emperor, they were all shocked.
Ye Fan's face also turned cold: "There is a secret compartment in His Majesty's bedroom. What secrets are there, and you actually searched for them? This is a capital crime!"
Eunuch Zhang was so frightened that he hurriedly kowtowed.
"Master Ye, he who doesn't know is not guilty. We just removed the cabinet and found a hidden compartment inside. After we found out, we didn't dare to check the contents inside."
"But after the cabinet was dismantled, a spiritual tablet fell out. After seeing this spiritual tablet, we were all frightened and at a loss."
As he said this, Eunuch Zhang took out something from his bag, which was the spiritual tablet.
He held the spiritual tablet in front of his chest with both hands: "This thing is of great importance, so I took it over immediately and asked Lord Ye to make a decision!"
Ye Fan's expression changed drastically after seeing this thing.
All civil and military officials gathered around him one after another.
When they saw what Eunuch Zhang was holding, they all panicked.
Many people were even trembling with fear.
Because what Eunuch Zhang holds in his hands is a spiritual tablet, which is the spiritual tablet of the current emperor!
The spiritual place of the imperial brother Luo Pengcheng.
Luo Pengcheng is the current emperor, and he led his troops to conquer the country himself.
And how could there be his own spiritual place in the emperor's palace?
This incident left all civil and military officials puzzled.
Extremely shocked!
Many people couldn't help but ask questions.
"Eunuch Zhang, are you sure this thing was taken from His Majesty's palace?"
"Besides this spiritual tablet, is there anything else in the secret grid?"
"Eunuch Zhang, this matter is of great importance. You must think it through before explaining it clearly. If you dare to talk nonsense, it will be a crime against the nine tribes!"
Eunuch Zhang kept kowtowing and made his assurances very seriously.
"Everything I said is true. There are other things in the secret compartment, but we don't dare to touch them!"
"I would like to ask Mr. Ye and other lords to investigate this matter together. The younger ones don't dare to investigate further!"
Everyone believed that Eunuch Zhang did not dare to talk nonsense.
At this time, the Minister of Rites said: "Master Ye, this matter is of great importance. I suggest you go to Qianqing Palace now to investigate the matter clearly and see what is in the secret compartment."
The Minister of Industry also spoke: "Yes, the appearance of the emperor's spiritual tablet is really weird. Could it be that the emperor has passed away? This matter must be investigated clearly!"
Subsequently, the six ministers all expressed their intention to go to the scene for inspection and asked all the adults to follow them.
Many officials also agreed and believed that this method was very appropriate.
Everyone is acting.
Because, these people are controlled by Xuanyu using Gu insects.
So, Ye Fan made a decision: "In that case, let's go to Qianqing Palace now and make sure to get to the bottom of this matter!"
Immediately afterwards, Ye Fan, the six ministers, and the civil and military officials went to the Qianqing Palace and came to the door of the emperor's bedroom.
Most officials have never been to the Qianqing Palace, and they will never come to the emperor's bedroom in this life.
Everyone has different moods.
The emperor's bedroom was so big that it could accommodate more than a hundred people.
After everyone went in together, they saw that the cabinet on the wall in front of them had indeed been removed, and there was a hidden compartment inside that had been knocked open by a hard object.
Next, Ye Fan and Liu Bu Shangshu walked over there and began to browse the contents inside.
First of all, what comes into view is a large number of women’s clothes!
There are scattered pieces of precious silk and satin, clothes worn by country folk, and a few night clothes.
There are also things used by Luo Pengcheng, including long swords, pipes, and favorite cultural relics, all of which have been preserved.
And the way of preservation is actually a bag containing clothes!
There are also some letters, calligraphy and paintings of Luo Pengcheng sealed inside.
As everyone checked, everyone's heart became more and more sinking, and they were extremely shocked!
What is more eye-catching in front of you is an incense burner, which is used for worship.
The dark compartment where the spiritual tablets and incense burner were placed was blackened. It was obvious that someone had been worshiping Luo Pengcheng all year round.
Seeing this, everyone at the scene understood.
Luo Pengcheng's clothes, the spiritual tablets, and the clothes of most of the women here, all together, can prove one thing.
That is, the real emperor has died long ago.
The current emperor is Luo Ningxin, the third princess of the Great Yan Dynasty!
