...
Zhao Wujiang rode a carriage back to the imperial city. He sent Jia Ersan, who was hiding in the dark, back to Chen Anbang's study to take back all the wooden boxes in the secret room to the palace.
The Minister of Libu, the Minister of Hubu and others kept waiting for the news, especially the Minister of Hubu, who was sitting on pins and needles and anxious.
But in the end they all received news from their respective informants, the house raid was over, everything was turned over to the treasury, and Zhao Wujiang returned to the imperial city.
This was different from what they expected.
Because in their informant's report, Zhao Wujiang was stunned that he was not greedy.
This makes them unable to understand, how can there be officials who are not corrupt?
But that's not the main thing. The biggest reason that worries them is that Zhao Wujiang stayed in Chen Anbang's study for a while, and they don't know anything about what he got and what he found.
And Zhao Wujiang didn't reveal anything at all.
Amidst the random thoughts of the Minister of Civil Affairs and others, Zhao Wujiang has returned to the imperial city.
When he first entered the imperial city, he discovered that the imperial city was under martial law and the level of defense was much better than before, which made him particularly puzzled.
When he returned to the palace of Yangxin Hall, before he could tell the empress what he found in Chen Anbang's study, the empress revealed the news to him.
"The source of yesterday's thief has been found." The empress's eyebrows were particularly majestic, and yesterday's scene was still vivid in her mind, making her feel angry.
Zhao Wujiang was confused:
"Too hospital?"
"It seems you have guessed it." The Empress nodded:
"The Dugu family also helped investigate this matter. It was found that Sun Yiku, a thief, was suspected of colluding with others. The thief who wanted to murder me and the queen yesterday was sent by him."
"Are you ready to clear it out?" Zhao Wujiang rubbed his fingers. He found that the martial law was strictly enforced outside the palace. It seemed that the empress had begun to blockade the palace to prevent Sun Yiku and others from escaping.
"Purge." The Empress sighed:
"Tomorrow we will get married to the Moon Worshiping Kingdom. It is impossible to allow such a threat to exist!"
Zhao Wujiang asked:
"when?"
"Now, when you come back, we can start purging!
I am worried that they may use poison, but your superb medical skills can prevent this. "The empress looked majestic, knocked on the table, gave some instructions to Long Yinwei, then got up and walked outside.
This time, she was truly angry. This was the first time since she came to the throne that she encountered such a bold assassination. It was absolutely impossible to endure this incident.
...
The imperial harem and the palace road in front of the imperial hospital are currently guarded by the Imperial Army.
Zhao Wujiang knew that outside the imperial city, there must be more forbidden troops guarding them, and even hidden dragon guards to ensure that the purge would not fail.
The empress had a frosty look on her face. After Xiao Feng, the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army, reported the situation, she gave an order and the Forbidden Army slowly advanced towards the Imperial Hospital to surround it.
"I am coming too."
Zhao Wujiang said in a deep voice, following behind the forbidden army.
He had a strong feeling that the storm was about to come. After clearing out the Taiyuan Hospital, it would be equivalent to a formal declaration of war on the people behind the Taiyuan Hospital. By then, they would face a more cruel battle.
The soldiers and armor collided, and Xiao Feng took the lead and rushed to the front. As the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army and the son of Zhennan General Xiao Yuanshan, he naturally could not shrink back.
It's just that he is rough and subtle, and he investigates as he walks, guarding Zhao Wujiang who is coming behind him.
In his opinion, Zhao Wujiang is the key to his sister Xiao Wanjun's favor in the harem, and he is also the emperor's favorite. He should pay more attention to making friends with her.
A group of people slowly approached Taiyuan Hospital, and the air was filled with the aroma of medicinal herbs.
Zhao Wujiang narrowed his eyes slightly. He felt it was too quiet, as if the thieves from the hospital didn't know they were coming.
He motioned for everyone to slow down.
At this moment, four medical kits flew out from the Imperial Hospital, whizzing towards them.
