Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 210

Chapter 210: Secret Meeting (2)
Emperor Yong’an raised his eyebrows slightly and took the thin book. As he turned the pages, his lazy expression slowly changed. When he closed the book, Emperor Yong’an’s face became serious.

He looked at Ye Huiyu and asked, “Where did you get this?”

Ye Huiyu said calmly, “Your Majesty does not need to know where I got that book. You only need to know that the name list in that book is real.”

When Emperor Yong’an heard her answer, he frowned slightly and asked, “What do you want from me, Duan Qinwangfei?”

The moment Emperor Yong’an asked this question, Ye Huiyu’s calm eyes flashed with deep hatred. Although her turbulent emotions only lasted for a second, both Emperor Yong’an and An Yi saw it.

“I need Your Majesty’s help to bring down Duan Qinwang.” Ye Huiyu said calmly after adjusting her mood.

Emperor Yong’an heard this and thought, ‘Judging from the hatred I just saw, it seems that the rumor that Prime Minister Ye killed her lover and forced her to marry Duan Qinwang is true. Since she is willing to help me, then there is no reason for me to refuse. With the help of Ye Huiyu, an insider, it would be easier to obtain evidence of Duan Qinwang’s crime.’

With this in mind, Emperor Yong’an smiled and said, “Zhen wants to help you, but Zhen has nothing that could bring down Duan Qinwang. Duan Qinwangfei should know that your husband’s influence and power in the imperial court are deep-rooted and will not be easily uprooted, right?”

Ye Huiyu calmly looked at Emperor Yong’an’s smiling face and said, “I understand. Your Majesty can send someone to collect evidence tonight. However, if Your Majesty breaks his promise, then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Emperor Yong’an was not angry because of her blatant threat but chuckled and said, “Of course. Zhen knows Duan Qinwangfei’s ability and patience. Don’t worry. Zhen’s words are heavier than mountains. Zhen will never break my promise to Duan Qinwangfei.”

Listening to Emperor Yong’an’s assurance, Ye Huiyu showed no expression on her face. She just stared at the handsome emperor for a while, then stood up and said, “Now that the matter is over, I will take my leave first. Your Majesty, take care.”

As soon as she took a step, Emperor Yong’an smiled and said, “See you soon, Duan Qinwangfei.”

Hearing these words, Ye Huiyu paused on her track. Her cold heart warmed when she remembered the kindness the First Empress had shown her when she was young. These words were exactly what the First Empress said to her when she visited her on the sickbed for the last time, and it was also the last time Ye Huiyu saw her smiling face.

She thought for a few seconds, then turned to look at Emperor Yong’an and said, “Duan Qinwang has assembled troops outside the imperial capital city, and some of them have already sneaked into the city and the imperial palace. Your Majesty may need to take action before the summer banquet.”

After saying that, she paused and then added, “Also, be careful of that person in the Inner Palace. She may have caused the deaths of the late emperor and the late First Empress.”

Hearing this, Emperor Yong’an’s smile disappeared instantly. He looked at Ye Huiyu and asked, “Do you have any evidence?”

Ye Huiyu shook her head, and Emperor Yong’an’s eyes dimmed. Looking at his tense jaw, Ye Huiyu said calmly, “I may not have any evidence, but I know someone who may know everything about the death of the First Empress and the late Emperor.”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yong’an suddenly raised his head and asked hurriedly, “Who is that person? Is he still alive?”

Ye Huiyu shook her head again and said, “I don’t know if he is still alive or not. Besides, it is just a coincidence that I know this person. I don’t know his name, but I know that he is the most famous divine physician in Jianghu.”

After saying this, she saw the change in Emperor Yong’an’s expression and added, “With Your Majesty’s ability, I believe you can find out this person’s identity. Since I have said everything I can say, I will leave the rest to you, Your Majesty.”

Emperor Yong’an saw Ye Huiyu walking away and suddenly asked, “Why are you telling me this?”

Ye Huiyu stopped as soon as she heard this question. She was silent for a few seconds and answered without looking back, “Only in this way can I repay the First Empress for her kindness to me during her lifetime.”

After leaving these words, Ye Huiyu calmly took the maidservant and left. After she left, An Yi looked at his Master and asked, “Master, do you think Duan Qinwangfei’s words are credible?”

Emperor Yong’an looked at the thin book in his hand. In it, the names and deeds of the officials and generals who colluded with Duan Qinwang were clearly and in detail written.

He thought for a moment and said, “We will find out tonight when we get the evidence.”

After saying that, Emperor Yong’an put away the thin book. He stood up and said, “An Yi, send someone to get the evidence as soon as possible. We may need to take action tomorrow.”

An Yi clasped his fists and said, “This subordinate accepts the orders.”

After Emperor Yong’an and An Yi left the dilapidated courtyard, Jian Yi and others came out from their hiding place. Watching the simple carriage drive away, Jian Er asked, “Lao Da, do we want to investigate the matter of this divine physician?”

Jian Yi frowned slightly and said, “Let’s investigate. We have to find out everything before Master comes back.”

Jian San asked, “What about Duan Qinwang’s soldiers?”

Hearing this question, Jian Yi looked at Jian Liu and said, “Lao Liu, use our emergency channel to send a message to our Master. Inform Master that we need his permission to mobilize the Jin Yi Army to protect the imperial capital city and Emperor Yong’an.”
