Chapter 923 Seeing Ghosts in the Daytime
After Yan Rong waited for Emperor Ping Zhao to rest, he quietly came to the agreed location.
"Come out."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark figure knelt on the ground in the cold palace: "Eunuch."
Yan Rong really enjoyed the feeling of being looked up to. He raised his chin slightly and said, "Is everything done? That old guy won't show up again, right?"
The shadow replied, "It's done. My subordinates tricked him into the water pavilion, pushed him down the lotus pond from the arch bridge, and smashed him into the water with rocks. He couldn't get up."
The lotus pond was airtight. A great funeral was going on in the palace, and the nobles in the palace were either imprisoned or keeping vigil. The emperor was extremely busy, and no one was in the mood to go to the water pavilion to appreciate the lotus.
When the lotus leaves withered and a foul smell emerged, Grandpa De could no longer recognize his parents who were already rotting in the water.
If the news of his meeting with Concubine Li was leaked during his disappearance, it would leave people to imagine what they were thinking.
The most likely scenario is that he was quietly dealt with by the Sixth Prince.
In the end, Wan Dequan was blamed for Lipin's death, and the Sixth Prince was blamed for Wan Dequan's death. Emperor Pingzhao and Yan Rong were both picked out, and they were both clean.
When the Sixth Prince went to his fiefdom, all matters concerning Concubine Li and Wan Dequan came to an end and became an eternal secret.
Yan Rong's plan was very thorough. Now that he had confirmed with his own ears that Wan Dequan was dead, he was completely relieved: "I understand, you can leave now."
"Father-in-law, my parents..."
"Don't worry, as long as you work hard for me, your parents will have a good life every day."
After a moment of silence, Hei Yinger responded, "Yes."
......
Emperor Ping Zhao had not seen Wan Dequan for two days. During his break, he asked Yan Rong about him: "Hasn't Wan Dequan finished what he asked him to do? Why hasn't he sent the registration book over yet?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Rong pretended to be confused and replied in a puzzled manner: "I haven't seen Eunuch De in the past two days, and no one has handed over the book to me."
book?
Yup!
What about that thing?
Yan Rong couldn't find the black shadow to ask about the whereabouts of the booklet, so he could only continue to pretend to be confused.
"Didn't see him?"
Emperor Ping Zhao was somewhat surprised: "Is it because the late emperor is going to be buried that he has already gone to the mourning hall?"
Yan Rong shook his head: "Your Majesty, I didn't see him when I went to the mourning hall, but it may be that I didn't meet him. Otherwise, I will send someone to ask?"
"also."
Emperor Ping Zhao was anxious to make arrangements for the women of the previous emperor, and to send the princes to their fiefdoms as soon as possible. After these people were properly settled, he would deal with the other people in Kyoto.
Yan Rong hurriedly withdrew. First, to confirm the news that Wan Dequan had been missing for two days; second, to go to the water pavilion to see if there was any booklet left behind.
However, after he hurriedly left the imperial study and walked down a few steps, he saw a ghost.
"what--"
Yan Rong was so scared when he saw Wan Dequan walking towards him that he screamed, but then he immediately shut up.
However, his face was completely drained of color as he stared at Wan Dequan.
Isn't he dead?
But, Wandequan in the sunlight...he has a shadow.
Wan Dequan looked at Yan Rong, who looked like he had seen a ghost, and sneered in his heart, but smiled brightly on the surface and said, "Eunuch Yan, what's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much? Why do you look so bad? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to take a look?"
"No...no...no need."
Yan Rong finally came back to his senses and forced a smile, "You've come just in time, the Emperor was looking for you!"
