Chapter 1015: The Third Prince Has Lost His Virtue
....Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Old Madam Guan was naturally grateful that Eldest Princess Shaoyi had taken the initiative to help take care of Madam Ming.
Logically speaking, she was the Madam’s servant, so it was not her place to criticize her.
However, her Master had died in battle, and her Madam seemed to have lost her soul. Even as a servant, she was at a loss and did not know where to go.
Yu Youyao thought for a moment and said, “Later, I’ll write a few calming prescriptions and prepare some incense medicine to nourish the mind. I’ll have to trouble you to take good care of her these few days. Don’t be careless.
Do you understand?”
Towards the end, her tone suddenly became more serious.
Old Madam Guan’s heart trembled, and she quickly said, “Eldest Princess, don’t worry. I’ve been taking care of my Madam for most of my life. I know the severity of the matter.”
Eldest Princess Shaoyi looked like a child, but when she spoke, she spoke in a methodical manner. Her voice was neither fast nor slow. It was neither high nor low. It was like a gurgling stream and sounded very pleasant. No matter who she was with, she treated everyone gently and politely. Her voice was natural and comfortable to hear.
She clearly had a gentle personality, but the words coming out of her mouth were convincing and unquestionable.
Yu Youyao gave some more instructions before returning to the tent.
Yin Huaixi was already awake. “How’s Auntie Ming?”
Yu Youyao shook her head and nodded. . She can eat and sleep. She looks fine, but in her heart…” She looked a little sad, but she did not want Yin Huaixi to see her. Her slender eyelashes fluttered and she slowly lowered her eyes. “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of her during this period of time.”
Yin Huaixi held her hand. “Auntie Ming has a strong personality. After so many years, what hasn’t she experienced? I think she’ll be able to pull herself together soon. But you…” He exerted strength in his arm, and Yu Youyao’s body tilted and she fell into his arms. “The weather in the border city is cold and harsh. You have to pay more attention to your health. Do everything within your limits. Don’t force yourself and make me worry.”
Her waist became thinner.
Her eyes were red and swollen.
She looked fine, but the sadness on her face made his heart ache.
Her face was pressed against the armor on his chest, but the cold and hard armor made Yu Youyao feel extremely at ease. “Alright, you have to be more careful too. Don’t make me worry.”
With just a hug, Yin Huaixi let go of her.
Yu Youyao quickly asked, “I’ve prepared food. Have you eaten?”
“l did.” Yin Huaixi nodded. Not long after Yu Youyao left, he woke up. He usually slept for about two hours. “I’ll go discuss matters with General Lin and the others first.’
“l heard from Military Advisor Huang that your arm…” She had just noticed that Yin Huaixi’s left arm was hanging unnaturally by his side. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.
Yin Huaixi comforted her. “I’m not seriously injured. When we go to General
Lin’s tent, I’ll invite a military doctor over to take a look. Don’t worry.”
Yu Youyao could only nod slightly, but she was thinking about making medicinal cuisine.
The tent fell silent again.
Yu Youyao quickly found a few packets of incense medicine that Madam Ming could use. They were all marked with how to use them. Then, she wrote a few simple medicinal cuisine recipes and asked Xia Tao to send them to Old Madam Ye.
The news of General Ming Wei’s death quickly spread in Liaodong. The commoners were as sad as if they had lost their parents, and the entire Liaodong fell into great sorrow.
An old general who had fought countless times in his life had actually died under the despicable and shameless schemes of the Di people. It was lamentable, indignant, and hateful.
The commoners shared a common enemy, and their hatred for the Di people reached its peak.
The streets and alleys were all shouting that a debt of blood had to be paid in blood, and that they wanted to flatten the Northern Barbarians’ gra.s.sland.
At the same time, the Imperial Court was overwrought because of the King of Liangs rebellion.
Although the army formed to attack the Liang was famous and the situation was good, it did not have the effect of deterring the Liang army. The Liang army had already reached Hubei.
If the Liang resistance army could not take down the Xiangyang Fortress before the Liang army, the Liang resistance army would lose the current good situation.
At that time, the Liang bandits would occupy a place that all soldiers would fight for. They would sit on the endless Jianghan Plains. They would have food and manpower. They would maintain a situation where they could retreat and defend against the Imperial Court. The Liang resistance army would definitely be weak.
Great Zhou was in danger!
However, before one wave was over, another rose.
The rebellion of the King of Liang was already a headache. There was also the scandal of the Third Prince losing his virtue in the palace.
The Empress Dowager’s state funeral was temporarily put aside. In addition to weddings and funerals, the Imperial Court still prohibited wine, meat, banquets, and all other group entertainment activities.
As a descendant of the royal family, he had to be filial.
However, the cabinet received a secret report that the Third Prince did not care about filial piety and openly refined Hans.h.i.+ powder recipes in the palace. He played with the palace maidservants all day long for fun, drank endless wine, and had an obscene harem.
The Great Zhou Dynasty had always been governing the people with “filial piety.” Such an ugly matter had happened to the royal family. It was simply comparable to the King of Lianz’s rebellion. How could thev sit still?
The secret report was quickly handed to the Empress.
The Empress was shocked. After more than a month of secret investigation, it was finally confirmed that the Third Prince had consumed Hans.h.i.+ powder and was addicted to it after taking it for a long time. He often did lewd things in the palace. It was simply unbearable.
If news of such an ugly matter spread, it would definitely find a more dignified reason for the King of Liangs rebellion. The people of the Great
Zhou Dynasty would be dissipated, and the water could overturn the boat.
The Empress knew very well that she was powerful. She immediately investigated the palace in the name of disrespecting the Empress Dowager and secretly executed all those who had partic.i.p.ated, knew, or were implicated in this matter.
Carts of corpses were secretly transported out of the palace from the secret door of the palace in the dark night. They were thrown into the ma.s.s grave and burned completely.
Even the old beggars in the dilapidated temple nearby fled in fear.
What kind of grudge did she have?
They did not even let the dead off. They were thrown into the ma.s.s grave and were burned to ashes.
However, this matter was far from over. Not only did it involve a conflict among the henchmen, but it also triggered a conflict between the Chinese court officials and generals. The cabinet argued every day, causing chaos. The generals led by Duke Xu insisted.
“The Third Prince is talented and smart. He’s praised by the emperor and is quite famous in the court. It’s naturally impossible for him to do such a ridiculous thing. He was framed.”
“Someone deliberately lured the Third Prince into getting the Hans.h.i.+ powder, causing him to lose his virtue and make a mistake. We have to investigate the cabinet thoroughly and clear the Third Prince’s name.”
“A conspiracy to murder a prince is very important. We can’t take it lightly…”
Everyone in the cabinet was shocked and dumbfounded by this rascal’s actions.
Immediately, an old minister was furious. He raised his trembling fingers and cursed, “There’s actually such a shameless person in this world. We’re ashamed to be officials with you..”
