I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 19: Bald at , dead at

Chu Liuzheng played along and frowned, "Did the eunuch really never send anyone there?"

Wang Jinzhong shook his head. "If you don't believe me, you can ask everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to see if there is a single lie in our family."

[The Ministry of Internal Affairs is your world. Even if you say the grass is blue, they will all nod in agreement.]

"I naturally trust you, sir." Chu Liuzheng said, "But since your majesty asked me to come here to identify someone, I should do my best to do my job. It is my fault for disturbing you, sir. I apologize to you."

She knelt down and bowed, but Wang Jinzhong did not dare to accept it all.

It's not like he hadn't heard some rumors. Looking at Zhou Yuande's polite attitude towards this person, maybe this person will be the boss in the future.

The three of them exchanged polite words, and when Chu Liuzheng felt his mouth was dry and his tongue was parched, the eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department finally arrived.

Wang Jinzhong said to the eunuchs with a stern face, "Whoever is Xiao Yuanzi, come out yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, three eunuchs stood up with their heads down. They were all tall and their names were Xiaoyuanzi, Xiaoyuanzi, and Xiaoyuanzi, all with the same pronunciation.

Wang Jinzhong waved his hand, and the three of them walked forward and stood in a row in front of Chu Liuzheng.

Wang Jinzhong turned to Chu Liuzheng and said with a smile: "Everyone is here, please identify them, young lady."

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang." Chu Liuzheng nodded to him, then said to the three eunuchs, "Raise your heads."

The three of them raised their heads at the same time, staring straight ahead.

Chu Liuzheng's heart sank as he scanned the faces of the three people one by one.

As she expected, the eunuch who knocked her out used a fake name.

There is a vast amount of gossip in the melon-eating system, but Chu Liuzheng is the host, and her gossip is not recorded. She can only see some information related to herself from other people's gossip.

Moreover, only things that have been said or done that can be classified as gossip will be recorded by the system; what you think in your mind does not count.

It is certainly convenient to use the Chigua system to check news, but it has a disadvantage: there are no pictures or videos.

If you don’t know the name, you won’t be able to match it with the gossip, and if you know the pseudonym, you’ll get the wrong gossip.

It's okay under normal circumstances, people eat melons left and right just for fun, and people who like to have fun can eat any melon.

But in a situation like today, I can't be happy.

It is true that there is a Xiao Yuanzi in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but this Xiao Yuanzi is not that Xiao Yuanzi.

Chu Liuzheng thought for a while, reopened the system, and looked for gossip related to Cuiyun.

She seldom makes enemies with anyone, and the only one who wants to harm her recently is Cuiyun.

Cuiyun's plan could only succeed if she was tied up and taken to Zhaoxuetang, so the little eunuch who came to see her must be related to Cuiyun, and she might have missed it in her anger just now.

Chu Liuzheng began to dig deeper into Cuiyun's experience since entering the palace.

Several pieces of gossip flashed by quickly, and the key words were imprinted in my mind.

His eyes suddenly paused.

【Eating together?】

[The eunuch Xiao Yinzi who is in charge of the storehouse in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is from the same hometown as Cuiyun. He wants to marry Cuiyun, but Cuiyun is unwilling.]

[The day before yesterday, Cuiyun suddenly took the initiative to find Xiaoyinzi to reminisce about the past, and said that she was willing to form a couple with him. ]

[Tsk tsk, isn't this timing a little too coincidental? ]

"Xiao Yinzi." Chu Liuzheng repeated the name unconsciously.

"What did the girl say?" Zhou Yuande's ears were sharp, "But the little mark?"

"Xiao Yinzi?" Wang Jinzhong thought the person he was looking for had changed, so he immediately said to the eunuchs, "The one called Xiao Yinzi, please stand up."

Soon, a short eunuch stood out from the crowd. If you looked closely, you could see that his legs were shaking nervously.

Wang Jinzhong ordered, “Come here.”

The young eunuch came over with a sad face. Chu Liuzheng knew at a glance that this was not the person he was looking for, but he still asked, "Your name is Xiao Yinzi?"

The young eunuch nodded and said, "My name is Xiao Yingzi."

Chu Liuzheng: “…”

It’s okay to not distinguish between the front and back nasal sounds, but is it so difficult to distinguish between the fourth and third tones?
"What ears!" Wang Jinzhong raised his hand and slapped Xiao Yingzi on the head, saying unhappily, "Call Xiao Yinzi to come out, why are you standing out?"

"Xiao, Xiao Yinzi is sick and has a fever and can't get up." Xiao Yingzi wanted to cry, her tone a little aggrieved, "I live with him in the same room, and I just want to stand up and say something to you on his behalf."

"How come you are so sick that you can't get up?" Wang Jinzhong frowned and ordered two of his confidants to bring the person over.

Soon people were brought.

Seeing that face clearly, Chu Liuzheng's eyebrows curved immediately, "Do you still remember me, Master?"

"You are joking, young lady." Xiao Yinzi looked sick and lowered his head slightly. "I have never seen you, young lady."

Wang Jinzhong looked at Xiao Yinzi and then at Chu Liuzheng, and asked, "Miss, are you sure, is it really him?"

——After all, he is from the Imperial Household Department, he has to ask clearly and not take the blame for others.

"I've got it right." Chu Liuzheng stopped smiling, his eyes suddenly turned cold, "I'll recognize the person who hurt me even if he turns into ashes!"

Everyone was shocked by her change of expression.

This person has been very friendly since he came in, and the smile on his face never faded.

Now his cold face looks quite majestic, making people feel that he is not easy to mess with.

Wang Jinzhong did not ask any more questions. No matter how Xiao Yinzi pleaded, he was not moved at all. He even went to the Yangxin Palace with Chu Liuzheng in person.

——No matter what Xiao Yinzi had done, he had to clear himself and the Imperial Household Department in front of His Majesty.

Zhou Yuande wanted to do Chu Liuzheng a favor, so he took over the interrogation work on his own initiative. Before they reached the Yangxin Palace, Xiao Yinzi had already confessed.

It was indeed he who knocked Chu Liuzheng unconscious and then took him away and hid him. He waited until dark before carrying him to Zhaoxuetang through a small path.

"I just want to help Cuiyun vent her anger." Xiao Yinzi's sick face was full of anger, and he glared at Chu Liuzheng fiercely, "It's all because of you that Cuiyun was punished to suffer in the laundry department. You're the one who hurt her!"

Chu Liuzheng: Huh?
What a big black pot.

It was clearly the tyrant who punished him, what did it have to do with her?
You really just pick on the weak, don't you?

Chu Liuzheng wanted to roll up his sleeves, go to the laundry department, and drag Cuiyun out for a fight!
A harmful person!!
It is such bad luck for me to know you!
She narrowed her eyes and stared at Xiao Yinzi, saying in a bad tone, "Did Cuiyun ask you to do this?"

Xiao Yinzi pursed his lips and refused to answer. Wang Jinzhong raised his hand and slapped him a few times before Xiao Yinzi let go.

"Yes."

His eyes flickered, and he added, "I did it all voluntarily. Cuiyun didn't force me."

Chu Liuzheng raised his eyebrows secretly, this sentence is unnecessary.

[Do you really think this little Yinzi likes Cuiyun so much? When the catastrophe comes, everyone will flee. Isn't he looking for a way out now? ]

It's too late to regret after you've taken action!
*
The lights in the Hall of Mental Cultivation were on brightly, and it was obvious that the people inside had not yet rested.

Chu Liuzheng couldn't help but look up at the sky above his head, which was faintly white.

[Is the tyrant planning to review documents all night? ]

[Tsk tsk, bald at thirty, dead at forty, the tyrant is awesome! ]

Xiao Jingfan, who was cursed to die early: "..."

Damn woman!
Sooner or later, I will make you pay!
"Come in!"

Zhou Yuande was shocked. Your Majesty’s tone was wrong. Who made Your Majesty angry again?
He carefully led everyone into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
