"Hurry up and check the imperial prison's incense collection record and find out who took it."
Zhu Yijun gave an order at this time.
At this time, Sun Bin walked in quickly: "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to investigate. The recent incense collection records were burned by Li Yue, the eunuch of the Imperial Palace, and I also committed suicide by taking poison."
Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
Then, Zhu Yijun looked at Gao Cai and said, "You two are responsible for collecting the incense in Qinzheng Hall, so it can only be decided by one of you two."
"Your Majesty is aware that if this servant really had such evil intentions, he would have left long ago!"
Gao Cai hurriedly replied loudly, with a look of injustice on his face.
Zhu Yijun said: "Maybe you didn't leave on purpose so that I wouldn't suspect you."
"Your Majesty, please!"
"How dare you, this slave, have such thoughts and burn the incense that the Emperor has forbidden you to burn casually?"
"Besides, this servant has been outside with the emperor before returning to Qinzheng Hall."
Gao Cai replied.
Zhu Yijun laughed and said nothing more, just letting Gao Cai kneel on the ground.
Half an hour later, Sun Bin came over again: "Your Majesty, after Tian Yi's home was confiscated, it was discovered that there was a large amount of ambergris in his home, and it was an unprecedented ambergris. "
"It seems like it's really Tian Yi?"
Zhu Yijun said something, glanced at Gao Cai, and then glanced at Sun Bin.
Sun Bin followed up and said: "I didn't expect Tian Yi to be such a person! Your Majesty, he must be an evil person doing this in order to make your Majesty neglect the government and indulge in beauty."
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "The key now is to catch Tian Yi. Only then can we know who is using such means behind the scenes to pass on the decree. Whoever captures Tian Yi will be rewarded with a world title."
Sun Bin raised his hand and said yes.
Then, Zhu Yijun said to Gao Cai, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Gao Cai stood up.
"Go out for a walk with me."
Zhu Yijun said next.
"yes!"
Gao Cai agreed with joy on his face.
After Zhu Yijun came out with Gao Cai, he told him: "You must secretly find out who among the maids of Qinzheng Palace secretly helped Tian Yi use ambergris on me. Although it is difficult to have a clue, But you have to check carefully.”
"yes!"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will try my best to investigate."
Gao Cai replied.
Then, Zhu Yijun didn't mention the matter again.
He knew that if someone dared to do something like this, they would definitely be on guard. Therefore, it would definitely not be easy to completely find out who was behind the scenes.
Just as Li Yue, the imperial eunuch, had already committed suicide in advance, in Zhu Yijun's view, he was afraid that Tian Yi might also be silenced now.
As for why these people do this?
Zhu Yijun can roughly guess the reason. He just wants to corrupt himself as the emperor and indulge in sex. If he didn't have good self-control and is sharp after all, he would probably still reward such a obsessed person and reward his help. It will benefit one's own Yang Dao and benefit his heirs.
But Zhu Yijun can't help but wonder now. People who do this, such as Tian Yi, have never thought about what they would do if they were not addicted and strictly investigate the source of this incense. Do they really just want to escape and give up? An easy-to-climb position in the inner chamber?
You know, it's not that easy to work for yourself, and not all eunuchs have this opportunity, so why are you so willing to be someone else's undercover?
Zhu Yijun hid these doubts in his heart.
He always felt that things were not that simple.
After the queen came back, Zhu Yijun told the queen about his visit to the Kou family and the Wang family, and also told the situation about ambergris.
Queen Du also frowned after hearing this: "Who has such ulterior motives? Your Majesty does not have any heirs!"
Zhu Yijun said: "Of course I want to be obsessed with this fragrance and the fun in it."
"These shameless villains really do everything they can!"
Du Shi also said angrily.
Zhu Yijun just smiled faintly: "I have asked them to investigate secretly, and sooner or later the truth will come to light."
Next, Zhu Yijun only told Shen Shixing and Qi Jiguang about this matter.
"Your Majesty, this may not be just the fault of the old party, there may be some people who are not willing to just be the emperor's vassal!"
Shen Shixing was already uneasy about Zhu Yijun suddenly breaking the appointment, but now that he heard Zhu Yijun personally talk about the reason for this, he realized the problem and said something.
Qi Jiguang also followed suit: "I second my opinion, Your Majesty must not be careless!"
Zhu Yijun nodded, and then didn't mention it again, just as usual.
However, Tian Yi never got it.
Only until this day.
Zhu Yijun caught a cold because he read the history of Western countries presented by Li Zhizao and several missionaries too late last night, and he woke up with a severe headache this morning.
Perhaps because it is related to his own personal interests, Zhu Yijun is now particularly interested in the history of the Western Yi countries, so he forgets to eat and sleep while reading it.
You know, he was not very interested in the history of Western countries in later generations.
"Your Majesty, do you have a headache?"
Gao Cai asked at this moment.
Zhu Yijun nodded: "I must have been a little weak because of the hard work in the past few days. I haven't recovered from the supplements. I stayed up all night yesterday and caught the wind."
"Then the emperor wants to teach the imperial doctor?"
Gao Cai asked.
Zhu Yijun said: "No need! He will get better on his own, and it won't be that fast after taking the medicine."
"My servant has heard that there is a magical medicine among the people. It was introduced from the Western Yi people. It is called Wu Xiang. After using it, it can refresh your mind and eliminate any pain."
Gao Cai replied.
After hearing this, Zhu Yijun said: "Really?"
Gao Cai hurriedly knelt down and said: "I was worried that the emperor was suffering too much from the headache, so I couldn't help mentioning this matter. It was unruly. Please forgive me. I know that according to the rules, you cannot take medicine without permission." It’s for the emperor, and the emperor’s medicine can only be something he is familiar with.”
"Don't be so afraid."
"Go get this black incense and let me try it."
Zhu Yijun said.
Seeing this, Gao Cai agreed, and then presented Wu Xiang in that afternoon.
After Zhu Yijun got it, he saw that the medicine was very black, and then he immediately lowered his face and said: "Someone, take down Gao Cai!"
The Jin Yiwei who had been prepared immediately rushed out from the screen.
Gao Cai was shocked when he saw this: "Your Majesty?"
boom!
Suddenly, Gao Cai turned around and ran out, somewhat wanting to escape.
But at this time, Zhang Jingxiu walked out from behind the screen and kicked him to the ground.
Gao Cai was suddenly thrown so hard that his butt hurt.
Then, he was controlled by other Jin Yiwei and was forced to kneel on the ground.
At this time, Gao Cai had to grit his teeth and endure the pain and asked: "How did the emperor find out that something was wrong with the slave? Didn't the slave already ask the emperor to doubt it? Didn't the emperor just doubt Tian Yi?"
"You tell him."
Zhu Yijun said something to Zhang Jingxiu.
Zhang Jingxiu said yes, then looked at him and said: "Wuxiang, you dare to enter. You must not know that the emperor has secretly ordered our Jin Yiwei to find a thing called opium. The effect of this substance may be better than yours." It’s still clear.”
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
"My servant actually has no other intention. I just thought that this product would relieve pain, so I just wanted to show my courtesy to the emperor."
Gao Cai was busy pleading to Zhu Yijun.
Zhu Yijun chuckled: "Are you still pretending to be stupid? Do you really think you are smart?"
"Why were you running in such a hurry just now?"
"What are you afraid of?"
Zhu Yijun asked.
Gao Cai said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I know that this slave just wanted to have a chance to make the Emperor happier, but the Emperor suddenly ordered the slave to be taken down. No matter how stupid I am, I know it is not a good thing."
"You're still lying!"
"You can come into contact with black fragrance, and ambergris is definitely not a problem."
Zhu Yijun said at this time.
Gao Cai continued weakly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, ambergris has nothing to do with slaves!"
Zhu Yijun ordered Zhang Jingxiu: "Take him to prison, give him the black incense that I asked you to purify from Zhang's family to relieve pain, and then heal his wounds. Let him feel ecstasy first, and then ask again when he becomes addicted!"
"yes!"
Zhang Jingxiu also took Gao Cai down.
Gao Cai knew how powerful Wu Xiang was, so he shouted with all his strength: "Your Majesty! Please spare me, please don't do this. I admit that I want to use Wu Xiang to give the Emperor, in order to control the Emperor." Lord, Ambergris is also a slave trying to frame Eunuch Tian. In fact, Eunuch Tian has been controlled by slaves for a long time."
