The Fourth Princess's Gossip System

159

Amid the heated political situation in the capital amid the presence of the second, third and fourth Princes could not be found.

They were now going to another region which caused them not to be in the capital at the moment. This caused tension among the officials and nobles in the palace.

Meanwhile, secretly, soldiers from the Emperor's forces had surrounded the capital to ensure security and stability. Their presence created tensions among the upper class nobility.

No one knows what is going on behind the political curtain. Some may feel anxious, while others feel suspicious of sudden military movements.

The root of this tension was the Emperor who fielded many shadow guards to monitor any royal houses suspected of potential treason or rebellion.

These shadow guards hid in the shadows, carrying out their duties with great precision and secrecy. They tracked every suspicious move and conversation, looking for clues about the plans that might lie behind the walls of the noble house.

In this atmosphere, suspicion and mistrust reciprocated. Rumors and speculations spread rapidly among the nobles which caused the atmosphere to grow increasingly tense. Everyone feels like walking on a slippery floor, be careful with every word and action they take.

Speculation about a possible civil war and a shift in power is further adding to the flames of instability that are burning in the capital.

In the main palace, the Emperor was sitting on the throne looking busy reading some books that were recently popular among the commoners in the capital. He seemed serious and focused, sometimes nodding or frowning when reading words that caught his attention.

After reading several chapters of books that are believed to be a factor in the tension.These books are what cause division and strong sentiment among the citizens of the city, who previously lived in harmony.

The Emperor raised his head, his eyes filled with doubt and worry.These books can somehow become a tool to inflame the flames of instability.

Gathering a sense of worry in his heart, the Emperor summoned a trusted shadow guard to give him a new task.

"Do it secretly" said the emperor.

The shadow guard took the order seriously.He immediately left the Emperor's room with careful steps, ready to begin the investigation.

Meanwhile, the Emperor was again immersed in reading controversial books, seeking a deeper understanding of the situation he was facing.

Who her?

"Great Emperor" The old eunuch who had just entered.

The emperor lifted his head and said, "is everything ready?"

"It's the great emperor"

The old eunuch handed over a pair of clothes to the emperor.

The Emperor and the old Eunuch dressed up carefully so as not to be flashy and not easily recognizable when coming out of the palace. The emperor wore a more modest outfit than his royal attire in the palace, yet still looked graceful and elegant.

The emperor wore a long robe of soft navy-colored silk cloth, with gold embroidery on the edges as a delicate touch of nobility. Under his robe, he wore a low-collared suit that was also navy-colored, made of light cloth to provide comfort on the way.

The bottom is combined with loose black trousers, which facilitate movement while walking. Comfortable black leather shoes are worn to complement its appearance.

The emperor also wore a simple navy-colored head covering, but it still looked classy. Her hair, which was usually tied with an imperial crown, was now left to unravel and tied with a simple knot behind her head.

Meanwhile, the old Eunuch wore a more modest and inconspicuous attire than most servants. He wore a long dark brown robe, made of durable fabric that was comfortable to wear. Under his robe, he wore a white low-collared shirt, which gave off an impression of simplicity and tranquility.

The dark brown trousers are loosely worn, thus providing comfort in moving. He also wore sturdy brown leather shoes, in keeping with his duties as a security guard.

The head covering of the old Eunuch was dark brown, with a hint of embroidered decoration on its edges as a sign of respect for his position as an esteemed Eunuch.

With these clothes, the old Emperor and Eunuch managed to disguise themselves well, looking like ordinary people who did not accentuate their noble status.

That way, the two of them were ready to leave the palace unrecognized by anyone.

When they reached the back door of the palace, a carriage of horse carriages without the symbol of nobility was already waiting outside. The Emperor and the old Eunuch climbed into the carriage, and the horse carriage began to slowly walk away from the palace.

This horse-drawn carriage is made of sturdy wood and decorated with fine carvings depicting images of nature and everyday life.

The two of them sat inside the carriage, looking at the street view and the townspeople who were on the move along the road.

It was not long before this horse carriage boarded by the emperor arrived at a large restaurant.

The old Emperor and Eunuchs descended there and walked as if they were laymen. No one was aware of his position as the current Emperor because his clothes did not reflect in that direction.

But unfortunately there was a girl who saw his arrival and was surprised for some time before she was willing to turn her eyes again in another direction.

If you ask who this girl is none other than Zhang Fei.

Just like the current emperor did, actually zhang Fei was also disguising himself to pass the time.

"Mommy, don't tell me it's the Emperor?"

("Yey didn't say, but it was the Emperor")

"Ohh apparently the Emperor has his saturation point as well huh. The proof is now that he is doing a disguise and going to the restaurant.ohh has he gotten tired of eating good?"

Zhang Fei glanced over the table and saw if there was anything special about the dishes today.

Zhang Fei was due to order the best dish in the restaurant and they served this menu on the table.

They only serve boiled pork with soy sauce.there is also a sweet sour fish with a sprinkling of sour jujube.

"Hem what the emperor likes this is yes, weird" he thought.

"Mama, find out the Emperor's purpose here mah" said zhang Fei on his system.

("Okay boss, mama to TKP first yes")

Not long after, a sound was heard from the system explaining the chronology of events.

A servant only glanced for a moment but as if already understanding what to do he directly directed the Emperor and his eunuch towards a room.

Immediately the door of the room was opened.When the Emperor entered some people tried to stand up and ducked towards him.

The Emperor simply waved a hand hinting it was not necessary at all. Right now their existence needed to be kept secret and there was no need to be so conspicuous that people were suspicious of his position as Emperor.

However once everyone did not sit down again before the Emperor himself, sitting in a position devoted to him.

At this moment the old nobles sat around the table. None of them tried to speak up.

For the next 10 minutes the atmosphere was so awkward. Not even one of them tried to pull each chopsticks even though in front of him right now there were so many foods whose fragrance could make your saliva drip.

"Master..

("Okay here the Emperor is not summoned as Emperor but as master. Yes, he is in a state of disguise, so ")

" you are gathered here do you already have a solution?"ask the emperor to everyone present.

The atmosphere is still quiet.

Brakes...

A plate of boiled pigs suddenly turned upside down.The Emperor's face looked light but in fact he was the perpetrator of a plate of boiled pigs it became futile.

"all of you have been with me for over 15 years but in this matter you have no solution? are your brains frozen?"said.

" my lord, all this time we were moving from below. But could not detect the origin of the book, this anonym ...

In fact, the Emperor has asked several departments to investigate who is the person called by this anonymous name.

The mention was a little strange and their tongues were not so familiar with this mention.

As far as we know, no family uses anonymous last names.

So who is anonymous.

("Oh princess, apparently the Emperor is not looking to enjoy the menu in this restaurant, they had a secret meeting to find out who had the name If only he had known it was the princess maybe he would have died today hehehe")

Zhang Fei suddenly dropped his chopsticks.This boiled pig is not the best dish but he is still trying to eat it. It is very affectionate and he does not like everything that is wasteful.

But when the anonymous mentions are said by the system. Suddenly he became stiff and his hands could not move at all.

Fortunately the conditions in this restaurant were so busy that no one was aware of its peculiarities.

Zhang Fei sat in the open unlike the emperor who rented a large, enclosed room.

Fortunately no one saw.

The system did not care about the apparition from its hosthe immediately reported what was happening inside that sealed room.

"My master, the spread of the book also happened systematically can not be found store and also printing place. Some printing houses also have alibis and keep them clean"

"My master aside from that from these 3 books all of his victims were people who sided with the third Prince.This minimized suspicion towards the second Prince and also the fourth prince. but after the investigation none of the two have any inclination in that direction. The enemy is actually quite shrewd in hiding"

After that, no one wants to say anything else. They had already talked about this matter before the Emperor came .But until now they had been deadlocked and did not know what to do.

Fighting with a sword can be tolerated but if you have fought through a pen. It's something that hasn't been done so far.

Only now did they know that the pen could be sharper than the sword.

Even the reputation built by the third prince could be destroyed by just passing 3 books.

"we are asking today if there is a solution to this problem instead of asking about who it is anonymously. are you fooling me?"the Emperor said with ferocity.

The explanation and reason said earlier need no longer be said since the Emperor had already known about it earlier. The purpose of this meeting is to come up with a solution, not a follow-up question.

But what was expected in this meeting did not happen .All of these present were people whose brains had already frozen from being eaten of age.

("these people were the ones behind the scenes in the ascension he became the current Emperor. They could be said to be meritorious people.But you know the Princess today they are like a chicken watered with water, ohh is more suitable if it is said like a cracker watered with broth, it is a glue")

Zhang Fei no longer had the taste to eat here. The menu that he said was the best in the capital was actually nothing.

It was fitting that his restaurant that was originally an unknown restaurant was now a restaurant visited by nobles.

Zhang Fei had to praise himself for the buzz of the new menu that raised the profits of the restaurant significantly.

"if I knew the menu brought here was like this, ckckck.Ah was a waste of money" Zhang Fei thought.

Zhang Fei came out today without bringing the Persib girl so he was alone. A little disappointed with the menu and also a little afraid of being recognized by the emperor later. So zhang Fei had to hurriedly leave the location.

Without calling the servant, zhang Fei placed a few pieces of silver on the table and left the table.

("hey dear, why did you leave so soon, Hem.we are not finished yet with the Emperor in the room")

"Mama just monitor it, make a pause a little, make a cake ad what cake is up to mama. I definitely cannot be here when the emperor comes out of the room. If it gets caught up to me"

("Hey the host bego what ya already said I was just a system that can be snintip doang uh on ask to use advertising again.Basic father of the host suck")

Zhang Fei did not care if his system was rumbling along the obvious path he directly climbed onto the carriage of the carriage that was already leaning in the corner.Today was a thrilling adventure for zhang Fei himself.

How could it be her who tried to disguise herself but met the emperor in disguise as well.

Even more frenzied the Emperor held a meeting secretly and it was about him.

Suddenly zhang Fei held his own neck and asked if this neck would still be in place tomorrow.
