JUNE 17, 2016DREAMYLILIESCHAPTER 2, CHAPTER3 EMPEROR TRUST, CHAPTER4 MAJOR CRISIS, YOUR MAJESTY PLEASE CALM DOWNLEAVE A COMMENT

The third day at nightwatcher quarter room. Tianqi and Wang Meng were more familiar with each other, enjoy reading books, eating and sit together to chat.

Wang Meng in the Wine Vinegar bureau (酒醋面局), do not look down on this yamen name that is not enough status level, this place is able to reap profit. Although his level is not up to Tianqi above level but is also making Tianqi envy.

This kid due to offend people, were sent to Watcher branch. This is a common reason for officers were convicted general reason. Compare to Tianqi the convicted case a bit astounding.

Not only Wang Meng sighs with feeling for Tianqi unfortunate. But she is lucky after a collision with Shenjia (Emperor reins圣驾) in the end corporal punishment also forfeit. It shows this kid, partly unlucky, did not go in the end.

Not to say His Majesty how cruel it was somehow it got a reason: His Majesty himself hates eunuch.

The reason hates the eunuch is the late Emperor leave an unpleasant experience to his son. The late Emperor in the court affairs is simply doing nothing, this is bad enough, he also supports eunuch influence causing eunuch grow strong as right hand man. Preside over court as side position. The whole of government officer also has to give them a face.

Too outrageous.

Eunuch mind are all money, whenever have the opportunity to rule and let them got power is bound to do some outrageous bad things. Those high ranking government officers attend the royal court that hate and despise these eunuch also very helpless, when necessary  still have to please these epithets eunuch it really is miserable.

This is not the most terrible, the most frightening thing is. That same year there is a powerful eunuch secretly colluded with Guifei(贵妃). Every day gives the Emperor eye medicine trying to persuade the Emperor abrogate crown prince change Guifei niang niang son to become crown prince.

Almost abrogate the crown prince, is the present now.

The feud between them is enormous.

Do you still think His Majesty like these groups of epithet eunuch ma?

So then after His Majesty ascended the throne the first thing is to eradicated the eunuch power from Silijian Bingbi(司礼监秉笔  inner court management) head of eunuch and those eunuch did not escape, all carry out for execution. Execution that day supreme court minister personally oversee the implementation of the death penalty. In capital whole ton of people went to watch execution the eunuch. All rulings and opposition parties respond with cheers and applause. His Majesty prestige is built up from then on. Although they did not speak openly, but very tacit consensus :

You stronger than your father!

His Majesty ascends the throne is only eighteen years old after the brilliant battle directly to retract the power. The minister acknowledges his skill, does not dare to do any tricks, everyone is very  well behaves. Although His Majesty is young as the son of heaven have never encountered any problem. Once the young Emperor ascends the throne encounter with difficulties:

How to live in harmony with others.

This year, His Majesty ascended the throne has been five years. These five years, many things have changed there one has never been changed: He hated eunuch.

In summary, with this context. Tianqi just being sent to Watcher branch it shows His Majesty takes action is being lenient.

Tianqi a little surprised. She recalls back her behavior, use His Majesty clothe to wipe noses, in front His Majesty fall asleep, no matter what or how you see these, is unforgivable. Not to lose her head too. Why His Majesty forgives her?

The point is, some people like to look for their own reason, some people prefer to find cause from others. For Tianqi both these are never bothered, she does not care who demerit, she likes to seek into scheme.

……….His Majesty would not be thought to ponder big ba?

Then she felt a little nervous, but also self comforting, His Majesty is ninth five of the statue(九五之尊), so busy it can’t be bored to chase a low Jiancheng, feeling uncomfortable.

Wang Meng looks at the Tianqi expression like a revolving lantern as now her mind wander away. Seeing now it’s about time for starting point for dageng(sound the night clapper). He shook Tianqi, “Wei ought to dageng.”

Today Tianqi still arrive early. Anyway, she had enough sleep during the day until latter half of the night would not able to sleep. Then wave hand, “You start the first half of night, me a whole night, no need to rest.”

Wang Meng also no need to courteous with her.

Just before dawn one third had already finished duty. Tianqi head hang down while leaving in a hurry. Wang Meng also catches up with her.

Notice Tianqi did not pay him any heed, Wang Meng murmured, “Are you aware, you soon be dead.”

Tianqi suddenly pauses, she rubbed her eyes and said, “Is it I haven’t woken up or you haven’t woken up?” Then she turns to walk away.

Wang Meng hurry to catch up and said, “I think you are a good person, so I wanted to help you.”

Tianqi is very sleep, too lazy to respond his nonsense. So Wang Meng follows all the way to Thirteen branch and very impolite to enter Tianqi room.

Once enter the room, he said to Tianqi, “You untie your waist belt.”

Slapped!

Not waiting for a reason Tianqi first reaction is to give him a slap.

Wang Meng covers his side face, a little frustrated, “You unlikely think I want to do indecent assault ba? Do you think an eunuch will do indecent with another eunuch?”

Tianqi rubs her nose, looked at his face swelling, with a little guilty, “In the end you want?”

“You untie your waist belt than I will confirm first.”

Tianqi listens to his words, had to take off her waist belt and hand it to him.

“Scissors.”

Hand him a scissors.

Wang Meng puts the belt on the side table, he removes the stitch waistband edge, direct the table top shake out some of the powder.

Tianqi somehow feels strange, “What is this?”

Wang Meng smell the powder, taste a bit and said, “This inside has a peach and saffron, is to improve blood circulation and reduce stasis: There is Musk and Senna leaves is cold constitution and irritant laxative, got Cantharides and Pokeweeds are poison beside these, there are others, if mix together into a fine powder and fill in your waistband.”

Although Tianqi doesn’t understand medicine herbs nevertheless a few words understand, the moment her face turn pale.

Wang Meng looks at her and concludes, “In a short brief these drugs are a disadvantage for pregnant women. Song Zhaoyi has a miscarriage, probably this the reason.”

Tianqi both legs feel weak, take the chair to sit down with trembling voice, “Why do you know these things? Exact accurate?”

Wang Meng nodded, “To be honest with you, my home was practicing medicine, later committed a crime. I was force to become an eunuch. As a child, I learn to identify medicine, although many years never touch, but still recognizes.”

Tianqi looks at the table top belt that’s been open apart, heart felt ice cold. It was her that cause Song Zhaoyi death. Song Zhaoyi treats her so well, but didn’t expect to attract the wolf into the den, she was actually her star of calamity.

Inside the imperial palace human nature is weak ingratiate themselves is fewer but more calculating. Even though Tianqi intention is to get close with Song Zhaoyi but is genuine good nature wants to serve this zhuzi well. Now suddenly discovered that it was hers to cause death of Song Zhaoyi. Tianqi felt the fate is playing with people, feeling her face is tickle, she touched it, turned out to be tears.

Wang Meng sighed and said, “You don’t have to cry, now need to plan, he points that piece of belt, you have been utilizing even a hundred mouths unable to give a convincing explanation for self defense, if this thing is to gets into imperial even you have ten heads is not enough to chop.”

Tianqi wipes off her tears, she takes the belt shake it come out lot of powder.

These powders little by little put inside the waistband, even shake it off also not clean. Tianqi is clutching the belt and said to Wang Meng, “Thank you.”

Wang Meng waved his hand, “You’re welcome, don’t worry, I  will not tell anyone.”

Tianqi nodded, “I know.” If you want to harm her, you will not tell her.

The next thing Wang Meng did not want to meddle then left. Tianqi also did not sleep staring the belt in a daze while mind in shock.

This belt is her teacher Ding personally give her when she elevates to Jiancheng. Dingzhi help her pick the new clothes.

Dingzhi is Defei people.

Defei is not favour, Song Zhaoyi is favour, Defei is childless, Song Zhaoyi is pregnant.

Tianqi doesn’t want to think anymore. Although Dingzhi reputation is not very good, but has a seven year apprenticeship with affection. Is very unlikely to use her own hand to put herself into fire pit.

However in the palace, apart from money and power, what is reliable? Even father and son and brother could kill each other, let alone is a mentor.

But this belt evidence concludes that Dingzhi has exploited her and also cannot be justified. Tianqi cannot take the belt for query, if going than will fall into their trap.

Well, teacher matter don’t want to speak. Most important now is how to dispose the belt, shake off the powder is endless, washing be useless the experts still able to identify.

The best way is to destroy the evidence, however inside the government officer issue order those clothes and other daily use is custom make. Jiancheng belt and the length is not the same.

Go to Tailor bureau? It not equivalent to make a confession without compelled.

Tianqi suddenly thought of a very serious problem. She is now being utilized if the person already uses her then frame her, what to do? Came to the end like a knife cuts a scapegoat?

Whether she innocent or not as long as this matter discloses out her life is coming to the end. Even if His Majesty is generous will not let this off easily.

Given the current attitude of His Majesty, it dictates that behind this need a scapegoat.

………….What to do now!

Tianqi feels herself standing at the end of the tip hanging for dear life.\n
