Chapter 398: A True Master Should Be This Aloof



Huang Ying and Li Yuanyuan didn’t even see clearly what had happened.

They only saw a eunuch rushing over, and when they opened their eyes again, the eunuch was already lying far away, dead.

This…

What happened?

Huang Ying looked confused.

Li Yuanyuan seemed to realize something and glanced at Gucheng.

There were a total of four people here, and the only one who could have killed the eunuch was this silent young man in black.

Was he that formidable?

That’s true. Jiang Ning had already encountered trouble last time, and the Prime Minister’s Mansion pampered her so much and couldn’t have had no protective measures in place.

Previously, when she saw Jiang Ning leaving the house with only a maid and an imperial guard as this young man in black, she found it strange, but it turned out that he was a master.

And a master among masters.

Huang Ying closed her mouth with a click and raised her sleeve to wipe the saliva dribbling from the corner of her mouth.

Now she understood why Gucheng seemed so unruly, but the Princess Consort didn’t mind at all, indulged him, pampered him, and never allowed her to speak ill of him.

It turned out that he was so formidable.

Huang Ying’s gaze at Gucheng changed.

“Brother Gucheng, are you tired? Should I do the pushing?”

“No, I’ll push.”

Gucheng was as calm and indifferent as ever, still speaking every word as if they were being forced out.

At first, it was uncomfortable to listen to, but now it sounded pleasant no matter how they heard it.

Such an aloof master should behave like this.

Now, the people inside the Court of Judicial Review reacted and came rushing over.

“Isn’t this Princess Consort of Yu?” Several officials from the Court of Judicial Review were surprised, “What happened?”

Jiang Ning said, “That eunuch just tried to assassinate me, but my man killed him.”

Huang Ying angrily said, “What are you people in the Court of Judicial Review doing, allowing such an assassin here!”

The official from the Court of Judicial Review was also a bit confused. Someone inspected the eunuch and wondered, “Isn’t this Old Huang? He’s been here for two months, right? He’s always been honest and did his work sweeping the floor. Didn’t expect him to be an assassin?”

Jiang Ning said, “I ask the adults to investigate whether there is any relationship between this eunuch and the Crown Prince’s Princess Consort at the East Palace.”

“The Princess Consort?”

“He just said that he was seeking revenge on me for the sake of the Princess Consort. If she didn’t send him, we shouldn’t falsely accuse her, right?”

“Yes, what Princess Consort of Yu said is right. I will definitely get to the bottom of this.”

The official from the Court of Judicial Review was courteous to Jiang Ning and hurriedly arranged for someone to handle the eunuch’s body.

It wasn’t that Jiang Ning had a great face, but mainly because of her father, uncle, and the Prince of Yu’s influence.

Now that the Crown Prince has become a drowning dog and deposing him is a foregone conclusion, the officials from the Court of Judicial Review don’t feel any burden in investigating the Princess Consort.

Once this matter is confirmed, it’s like pressing another stone on the East Palace’s head.

Once this Crown Prince is deposed, wouldn’t Prince of Yu have the hope to ascend to the throne?

Nobody was foolish.

It was only natural for their attitude towards Jiang Ning to change.

After handling the eunuch’s body, the official from the Court of Judicial Review came over enthusiastically and asked, “What brings Princess Consort of Yu here?”

Huang Ying immediately took out her waist token and handed it over, “Excuse me, sir. Our Princess Consort wants to visit Prince of Yu.”

The official from the Court of Judicial Review took the token and saw that it was Prime Minister Jiang’s.

He hurriedly returned the token to Huang Ying and laughed, “Please follow me.”

Li Yuanyuan was overjoyed.

As expected, only by following the Princess Consort could she enter.

She hurriedly took small steps and followed closely.

Under the leadership of the official from the Court of Judicial Review, they bypassed several doors and arrived at the Prison of the Court of Judicial Review..
