Chapter 162: Submitting a Secret Letter



Chapter 162: Submitting a Secret Letter

Chen Ruotong felt that the scumbag seemed to be gone without being tortured, which was a bit unsatisfactory. What happened?

She immediately left the yard and returned to the teahouse to continue her supervisory work with Chen Daquan.

The people who killed the original owner should be avenged and abused. As for Liang Zhilan, she would wait for the court to deal with her later. She didn't want her hands to be stained with blood.

Wu Qiming's days in the princess's mansion were like walking on thin ice, full of fear and trepidation, and he took every step carefully.

However, the goddess of luck seemed to favor him, allowing his carefully planned plan to be successfully implemented.

While Liang Zhilan was out, he cleverly sneaked into the dark room of the study and successfully stole more than a dozen crucial secret letters.

Wu Qiming knew Liang Zhilan's style of doing things best.

Since Zhihua has successfully escaped, there is no doubt that in order to track down Zhihua's whereabouts, Liang Zhilan will definitely send her men to secretly monitor her every move.

Faced with such a serious situation, Wu Qiming knew that he must not take it lightly.

He knew that if he rashly took these letters to see the emperor directly, he might alert the enemy.

After all, Liang Yachi's spies were everywhere in the palace. If he was not careful, not only would he fail to reveal the truth to the world, but he might even bring himself a fatal disaster.

How can these letters be delivered to the emperor safely?

This question was like a heavy rock pressing on Wu Qiming's heart, causing him to toss and turn, pondering.

No matter from which angle you think about it, each method seems to have risks and flaws.

However, these letters cannot be left in one's bedroom to avoid being discovered, nor can they be carried with one to avoid unexpected events.

After repeated consideration and weighing, Wu Qiming finally came up with a relatively safe and reliable method - the most appropriate and safest way is to hide them in the Sansi Yamen.

On this morning, Wu Qiming went to the government office to report for duty as usual, but this time he had more than a dozen heavy secret letters in his arms.

Along the way, he remained alert at all times, paying attention to any movements around him, for fear of any unexpected situations.

After arriving at the yamen, he hid the letter in his cabinet and placed it under a hidden board.

Since he arrived earlier, no other colleagues had appeared in the government office at that time, so naturally no one noticed his secretive actions. It was not until he confirmed that everything was safe that his heart, which had been hanging for a long time, finally settled down a little.

Just at this time, a difficult case involved the three yamen and the Dali Temple and needed to be handled collaboratively.

The person who came to contact the Sansi Yamen was Zhen Yu.

When Wu Qiming saw Zhen Yu, a glimmer of hope emerged in his heart - he knew very well that the man in front of him was a trusted minister of His Majesty the Emperor. If he could use Zhen Yu's help to successfully deliver these letters to the Emperor, then the matter would definitely be properly resolved.

Thinking of this, Wu Qiming decided to seize this rare opportunity.

He pretended to be nonchalant and walked to Zhen Yu's side seemingly casually but carefully. Then he gave her a meaningful look without leaving any trace.

Zhen Yu was so smart that he immediately understood the deep meaning and realized that Wu Qiming must have something important to discuss with him alone.

So he followed Wu Qiming to the room where he worked daily.

After entering the room, Wu Qiming said to Zhen Yu with a solemn expression, "Sir Zhen, I have some extremely important letters in my hands. Please be sure to present them to the emperor in person.

This matter concerns the safety of the country and the people, and is closely related to the well-being of the people!" His words fully demonstrated his loyalty and sense of responsibility.

Then he opened the cabinet, took out thirteen letters from the bottom layer and handed them to Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yu knew more or less about Wu Qiming's current situation in the Princess's Mansion.

Just as Mr. Chen Si said, either die in silence or explode in silence.

It seems that Wu Qiming could no longer tolerate the cruelty inflicted on him by Liang Zhilan, and finally could not suppress his inner anger, which was about to burst out. Could it be that he was going to expose and denounce Liang Zhilan?

Thinking of this, Zhen Yu did not dare to delay at all. He grabbed the letter swiftly and hid it in his arms. Then he rushed to the yamen without stopping. After finishing the case at hand, he immediately stepped out of the yamen gate and galloped towards the imperial city.

When these secret letters were respectfully handed to the emperor, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy and he was furious:

"What a great Liang Yachi! And that Liang Zhilan! I was too kind and lenient to them, but I didn't expect that the two of them would dare to secretly collude with the traitors in Southern Xinjiang and attempt to destroy our country!

Zhen Yu, there is no time to lose. You need to sneak into the Regent's Palace immediately and find ways to collect more solid evidence.

If we can find the dragon robe in the palace, that would be great. I will make Liang Yachi bear the heavy crime of treason and usurpation of the throne, and I will not be lenient... It must be quick!"

Zhen Yu received the imperial edict and planned to go to the Regent's Palace to collect evidence. As for the dragon robe, the emperor said there is one, so there must be one!

Time flows leisurely like a gurgling stream, and before we know it, we have arrived at this special day, the first day of June.

After careful construction and meticulous decoration, the originally slightly old teahouse has finally completed its gorgeous transformation, like a dazzling pearl, emitting a new and dazzling light.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the first three-story pavilion in the history of Daliang Dynasty that was built entirely with glass windows.

Stepping into it, you feel like you are in a dream palace, where every detail demonstrates the ultimate luxury and elegance.

Whether it is the intricately carved wooden furniture, the colorful silk curtains, or the sparkling modified crystal chandeliers, all of them speak of the owner's extraordinary taste and pursuit of quality of life.

This unique style perfectly fits Chen Ruotong's heart that is full of nouveau riche.

Today, this teahouse has not only become a hot topic of discussion among the people of Beijing after dinner, but also a veritable landmark building because of its unique architectural features.

Those rare glass windows are like magical mirrors, taking in the beautiful scenery outside; they are also like windows leading to another world, attracting countless people to come and explore.

As a result, this place has naturally become the most popular "Internet celebrity building" and a "check-in destination" that everyone is competing to visit.

From morning to night every day, endless streams of people stop outside this mysterious building just to experience its unique charm for themselves.

As the building had not yet opened, the doors and windows were tightly closed. Chen Daquan and a few servants were watching outside, fearing that any criminals might smash the windows.

Of course, Chen Ruotong also asked Zhen Yu to come and look after the building from time to time.
