Chapter 38 Orders From the Palace
"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore."
"You can safely take me to the Inner Palace to have a look."
Duan Chun knew that the other party was very powerful.
But I didn’t expect that even the young eunuch of the Inner Court Department would be so afraid!
You know, the Inner Palace Department is the official office of the Inner Palace, helping to manage the inner palace's supplies, musical instruments, and personnel.
It is managed by one senior prison officer and two junior prison guards.
There are various branches under it, managed by countless eunuchs and maids.
He originally thought that Wu Dinghou would at most go and invite some princes and marquises to cause trouble.
Now it seems that this involves the palace or Tianhuang nobles!
It has always been Duan Chun's philosophy in his previous life to just give up when things are good.
He knew very well that digging into some things would not do much good, and would instead cause more trouble.
As long as you can solve the problem.
But in this era, it depends on the situation.
If you keep enduring it, it will only make your own death worse and make the enemy more arrogant!
The only way is to make the matter bigger, to the point where no one dares to continue making trouble.
Only then can the trouble be solved once and for all!
Duan Chun stopped asking and the carriage moved forward.
Arriving at a city gate on the west side of the palace, the Inner Court Department is located here.
Duan Chun jumped out of the car, followed by Eunuch Yang.
His own bodyguard escorted Mr. Cheng, the young minister of Dali Temple who had woken up.
But Mr. Cheng's hands and feet were tied up, and a cloth was stuffed in his mouth.
I was so whimpering that I couldn't say even a single word.
The other Dali Temple detectives lowered their heads and were escorted by the guards into the gate of the Inner Palace.
Eunuch Wu, the chief supervisor of the Inner Court Department, was currently thinking about something in the main hall.
Eunuch Wu knew very well that he received a letter from his godfather today.
He was asked to interrogate Duan Chun, prove the charges, and obtain a precise confession and a picture to hand over.
Then you can complete the godfather's instructions.
But he knew in his heart, who was Duan Chun?
The only heir apparent to Duke Chang Guo!
If Duke Chang Guo comes to visit, will the Inner Court Division be torn to pieces?
Your Majesty will not blame Duke Chang Guo. He is the only one who is unlucky.
Today we must not offend the prince's grandpa, and we must also handle the godfather's affairs...
"Godfather, Eunuch Yang is back."
A young eunuch outside the door lowered his head and said.
"Can Eunuch Yang bring the person back?"
Eunuch Wu asked quickly with his eyes widened.
"Already brought it back."
"But only Eunuch Yang and Duan Chun came back."
The young eunuch replied.
"Let them in."
Eunuch Wu nodded.
As Eunuch Yang walked ahead, Duan Chun looked left and right curiously.
The Inner Palace is indeed a nice place, and the furniture everywhere is full of valuable new things.
After all, this is the administrative department of the emperor's inner palace.
All supplies, manpower, the income of the Jiaofang Department, and the salary of the palace people are all spent from here.
The inner treasury is also in the inner court department...
"Meet the Chief Superintendent."
Eunuch Yang walked into the main hall, bowed and saluted.
"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Yang."
"Master Xiao Duan, please take a seat. Please hurry up and serve tea."
Eunuch Wu stood up and said with a smile.
"No, I'm just here to visit the Inner Palace."
"Eunuch Wu, if you have anything to ask, please ask."
"I have to go to the palace to see His Majesty."
Duan Chun waved his sleeves and said calmly.
"Master Duan has to go to the palace to see His Majesty..."
Eunuch Wu was shocked when he heard this.
Such a young master can go to see His Majesty just because he says he wants to see His Majesty?
Eunuch Yang lowered his head, his heart pounding with anxiety.
But just now on the road, Duan Chun warned him.
He was advised not to speak in the Inner Chamber to avoid getting involved.
"Yes, I am following His Majesty's orders."
"Now I am serving as a guest of Honglu Temple."
"We are preparing a state banquet for His Majesty."
"But I didn't expect that Dali Temple would actually come to trouble me."
"I want to go to the palace to plead guilty to His Majesty."
"If Mr. Wu has anything to say, please tell me immediately. My time is very precious."
Duan Chun nodded.
"Master Xiao Duan, these are the two charges our family has received."
"I wrote to the Secretary of the Jiaofang, Le Ji Yueluo, for uttering treacherous words in public."
"It damages His Majesty's reputation, so I have to ask Mr. Xiao Duan to come and explain."
Wu Guogong picked up two pages from the table and said.
Eunuch Yang has become even more anxious. He knows that this young father-in-law is more difficult to deal with than they imagined.
No, it’s even more arrogant!
He doesn't care about the Inner Palace at all.
He even dared to beat up the young minister of Dali Temple, and the Dali Temple police arrested a lot of them...
If the trouble continues, the Inner Court Department will definitely not be able to hold on, and it will cause big trouble!
"Bring it over and let me take a look."
Duan Chun asked curiously.
A young eunuch handed two confessions into his hands.
Duan Chun read it carefully and understood in his heart.
This was the confession of a messenger from the Jiaofang Division and a dancer, and it was Yueluo's words yesterday with a death wish.
Everything was written down.
Well prepared.
"I know this."
"But Yue Luo has been redeemed by me."
"I was no longer from your Inner Palace Department yesterday."
"Therefore, Yueluo is no longer under the management of your Inner Court Department."
"You worry too much about this matter."
Duan Chun waved his hand and threw the two confessions on the ground.
"You... Mr. Xiao Duan, when Yue Luo said such arrogant words yesterday."
"She was still a member of the Music Bureau, and then Lord Duan signed a ransom and took her away."
"So Lord Duan can't cover up Yue Luo's crime!"
Duke Wu shouted.
Eunuch Yang lowered his head, and he was getting more and more nervous.
"I'm curious, if I hand Yue Luo over to you."
"What are you going to do?"
"Or, if I don't give Lord Wu an explanation today."
"Will I be unable to leave the Inner Court?"
Duan Chun asked with a disdainful smile.
"Lord Duan, we know you are the son of Duke Chang."
"But this matter involves the reputation of His Majesty!"
"This is not a joke!"
"Please tell me what happened yesterday, Lord Duan."
"And why did you insist on ransoming Yue Luo and covering up this daring slave!"
"Just write down your confession, and we will send Lord Duan away immediately."
"Otherwise..."
Eunuch Wu shouted sternly.
"Louder than the voice, right?"
"To be fair, the louder the voice, the more reasonable it is."
"You always involve your majesty's reputation."
"You are so bold that you want to discredit your majesty!"
"You all know Yue Luo's family background."
"Yu Yushi was beheaded and his three clans were confiscated. This is indeed the will of your majesty."
"But this is not a case that your majesty personally tried."
"Even so, you dare to frame your majesty?"
Duan Chun sneered.
"You, you are talking nonsense!"
"Duan Chun, I will consider you as the son of the Duke of Changguo."
"I just ask you to clarify the truth of the matter."
"Just hand over Yue Luo and forget it."
"If you refuse to cooperate, don't blame me for being rude!"
Eunuch Wu shouted sharply.
This is what his godfather told him to do, and now he can only bite the bullet and hold on.
"Okay, I want to see how rude you, a eunuch, are?"
Duan Chun smiled contemptuously.
"Come here, take this guy down!"
Eunuch Wu could no longer hold back and shouted out orders.
