The case of Mu Ge's drugging was finally resolved without much effort.
It turned out that Duan Qinxue had not asked her to deliver the letter box. She had just secretly found many letters. After learning what her father had done, she wanted to return the letters intact to avoid alerting the enemy.
But Muge is a very daring person.
Although Prime Minister Bai still maintains a superficial peace with the Regent, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two are just grasshoppers tied to the same rope for the sake of interests, and they have long been alienated from each other. After the Huainan incident, the Regent had lost countless subordinates, and his defeat was already apparent. It is only a matter of time before the current emperor regains the imperial power.
Especially after seeing these letters, Mu Ge was even more certain that the regent was at the end of his rope. Otherwise, he would never have done such a desperate move.
It would be fine if the prince and his wife were secretly sent to Huainan, but the regent also wanted to send the plague that had been cured in Huainan outside the city, so as to cause the plague to spread to a wider area. Then he secretly killed the daughter of the Bai family and let Bai Jinzhi stand up to preside over this "man-made plague". If this was successful, then the princess Bai Jinzhi and the prince Duan Xuyuan would be the biggest contributors to this plague. As for the previous "daughter of the Bai family"? Who would still remember
Of course, if the truth is revealed, he will be cursed for all eternity. The regent will be completely ruined.
A desperate move.
If it weren't for the end of his road, Duan Jing'an would never leave given his current position.
So Mu Ge came up with a plan and sent all the letters directly. But if she sent them herself, she would not be able to see Duan Changchuan, and she would also be accused of "betraying her master". No matter how successful she was in the future, she would still be criticized.
So she simply sold this favor to Duan Qinxue, and thought of another way: she asked someone to make a sachet and wore it into the emperor's study.
"The princess is loyal, righteous, and kind, and can distinguish right from wrong... I present this letter to His Majesty, and at most he will teach me a lesson, saying that I was reckless, but he won't be too harsh... I present this letter to His Majesty for the princess's future..."
The maidservant lying on the ground wiped her tears and spoke hesitantly.
He even justified his unnecessary actions by making them seem legitimate.
Yun Xie was almost laughing out of anger: "You also said that the princess is loyal, righteous, and kind, and can distinguish right from wrong. Why do you need to do this? Aren't you afraid that your master will become the daughter of a criminal in the future, and you will be implicated and unable to raise your head? Who in this palace is not a thousand-year-old fairy with tens of thousands of minds? Do you really think that no one can see through your thoughts? Don't you just want to get yourself out of this power grab and use your clean background to climb up the social ladder?"
"Slave..."
Mu Ge was about to reply when two more people came outside the study.
It was Duan Changchuan and Bai Su, who were already dressed and rested.
Bai Su placed one hand on the Omega's arm and led him to sit on the couch step by step: "Take out the aphrodisiac sachet and destroy it. Let someone pass the news here, don't worry."
Duan Changchuan nodded, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip: "Hmm..."
As he moved, his sleeve slid down his arm, revealing a red mark on his wrist, which he quickly covered.
"I heard everything. Take her to Liuxia Pavilion and let her stay there. Send a few guards to guard her. Since she has done a great job in reporting the incident, she will be provided with better food and clothing."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and told Changle: "Prepare the writing brush and ink. I will draft a secret decree for Zhang Dehai and have him take it to the princess."
Bai Su sat down beside him, patiently added ink, and asked, "What is your majesty's plan?"
The young man dipped the brush into the inkstone, lowered his eyes and wrote: "Tell Duan Qinxue that I have received the letter, and the Regent should have known about this matter. In consideration of her contribution in informing me of the matter, I can allow her to push the whole thing onto her maid. When the matter is settled, I will find a reason to deal with Mu Ge."
By giving the credit to Mu Ge, Duan Qinxue would at least not have a hard time in the Regent's Palace. This was also the reason why he was not punishing Mu Ge at the moment.
He wrote down the matter in just a few words, folded the paper, and handed it to Changle: "Give it to Zhang Dehai, and make sure the princess finishes reading it and burns it."
Changle put the letter into his sleeve pocket and replied respectfully, "Yes."
Then he turned around and walked out of the palace.
The commander of the guards also obeyed the order and sent Mu Ge to Liuxia Palace.
The maid knew that her fate was sealed. She was so distraught that she no longer had the strength to resist.
When everyone left, only Feng Yan and Yun Xie were left in the room.
The young man rubbed his ears exaggeratedly: "Finally, she was taken away. She has been crying since she came in. My ears hurt just from listening to her... She must have been crying for two hours. How come she doesn't seem tired at all?"
Feng Qian, who was standing next to him, rubbed him lovingly.
Duan Changchuan held the teacup to moisten his throat, and rolled his eyes at the person when he heard the words: "Squeamish."
Yun Xie closed his fan, looked him up and down, and pursed his lips several times, "Aren't you a spoiled child? Come to think of it, why were you so quiet just now? I didn't hear anything from here. However, this maid was crying so loudly, even if you cried loudly, we might not be able to hear you."
Duan Changchuan: …
He rolled his eyes again: "Why should I cry? You are often made to cry, right?"
Yun Xie: "... I, I was made to cry, so what! My crying means that my aunt has good skills!"
More and more shameless.
If there weren't two women watching here, he would have put his hands on his hips in front of Duan Changchuan.
Duan Changchuan was drinking water and was choking and coughing.
Upon seeing this, Feng Xian said goodbye to the two of them and left with Yun Xie.
"Wait until I get back to be punished by my aunt."
The young man looked at the two men's backs as they left and gritted his teeth.
Bai Su chuckled, patted his back, and gently soothed him: "He should be well taken care of."
The boy nestled into her arms dependently.
He let out a small "Hmph."
…
-
After nightfall, the two went to bed together.
Duan Changchuan's sexual period had not yet completely passed, and he was particularly attached to his Alpha, snuggling into her arms.
Bai Su just let him do what he wanted and fanned him with a palm-leaf fan.
"I asked Jin'er to return the jade pendant to your Majesty. Did your Majesty receive it?"
"Well, I received it two nights ago..."
"That's good. It would be best if we could get Bai Xiang to switch sides without your Majesty having to make a move. Otherwise, he will inevitably use this to control your Majesty in the future."
The boy couldn't help but rub against her again: "I know... Sister is doing this for my own good."
Alpha curled his lips and patted his back: "Good boy."
"Speaking of which, I have something interesting to tell you... A storyteller appeared in Shengjing these past two days. Your Majesty should have heard of him, too?"
"I heard from Changle that he was talking about the Huainan incident and he made up a great story about me."
Bai Su was amused by his description and stroked his hair with a smile: "Your Majesty is already powerful, is it necessary for them to make up the story? The day I returned to Shengjing, I asked Yun Xie if there was any writer who could compile a storytelling book to tell the story of Huainan in every street and alley. Your Majesty, guess who took on this task in the end?"
The young man opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Did my sister ask someone to compile this book?"
"Yes. There was a peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. They buried a stone tablet in advance and engraved the words: Don't say the stone man has only one eye. Once this thing is exposed, the whole world will rebel. Later, they used the stone tablet as an excuse to rebel. It was all to control public opinion. I found a storyteller to tell the story. First, I wanted to let the people know how bad the court was during the reign of the regent, and second, I wanted to let the people know that Your Majesty is their savior. It was all to control public opinion and people's hearts." (Note*)
"Well, where the people's will leads to victory." (Note*)
Bai Su nodded and tapped his nose: "So, Your Majesty, who do you think took this job in the end?"
"Since you said so, then you and I know each other, and he is loyal to me. Hmm... This person has a calm personality, but also a little bit of eccentricity, and is very talented in writing. I only have one such close minister under my command."
"who?"
The young man's eyes turned and he named a person: "It must be Mr. Zheng from the Hanlin Academy. I'm afraid not only Mr. Zheng, but Mr. Qian will also get involved, right? This job is interesting, Mr. Qian will definitely participate."
Bai Su kissed him lightly on the forehead and said, "Your Majesty is really smart."
The tone and actions were like coaxing a child.
The pregnant, delicate and bad-tempered Omega was immediately unhappy.
Pouted: "It's like a child's goodnight kiss... I'm not a child."
Bai Su was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.
He placed the palm-leaf fan next to the bed and hooked the child's chin: "So, my Omega wants a goodnight kiss from an adult?"
"Well... I just don't want children... I didn't say... well..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his lips and tongue were sealed.
The scent of Alpha is overwhelming.
After a while, he was out of breath.
The gauze curtain was lowered, and a woman's smiling voice came from inside, asking, "Your Majesty, do you want more?"
"… I feel like the back of my neck is still a little itchy…"
…
