At the lakeside of the harem.
Zhen Huan was strolling around with nothing to do. Although she was still a little uncomfortable, it was impossible for her to stay in the house all day.
Ye Fan had already guessed this, so he had long instructed the little eunuch and servant girls to accompany her well. If he wanted to go anywhere, he would let her go.
By the lake, Zhen Huan's mischievous temper flared up again. She squatted by the lake and looked around to see that there was no one else around. She immediately asked the young eunuchs to leave first. Then, accompanied by a servant girl, she took off her boots and sat by the lake to play with the water.
According to the ancient customs, women were not allowed to show their skin in front of others. Other than their hands and faces, they were not allowed to show their feet.
Such a move could be said to be very bold in the eyes of the servant girl.
"It's alright, do you want to come?" Zhen Huan said indifferently.”
"This servant wouldn't dare." The servant girl replied worriedly.
However, as a servant girl, she did not dare to force the young master to do anything. She could only stand on the spot and walk back and forth.
On a whim, Zhen Huan was playing happily. She did not notice that there were two men on the rockery behind her who were watching everything.
"Ouch!"
Zhen Huan was having fun and accidentally lost her balance. Just as she was about to fall into the lake, the man in brocade clothes on the rockery instantly jumped down from the rockery and rushed to Zhen Huan's side to support her.
Although Zhen Huan's mind was still unsettled, she still knew that men and women should not touch each other. She hurriedly shook off the man's hand that was supporting her and took a few steps back towards the servant girl.
However, she was still not wearing her shoes at this moment, and she was very embarrassed.
"Guo Junwang, please leave first."
Zhen Huan lowered her head and said.
However, Guo Junwang didn't care at all and said,""How do you know I'm Guo Junwang?"
Zhen Huan replied calmly,""Who else in the entire Qing Dynasty would dare to enter the harem other than Guo Junwang?”
"Guo Junwang, please leave first."
Zhen Huan chased him away again, but Guo Junwang had no intention of leaving. With a playful look in her eyes, she said,""Which imperial brother's concubine are you?"
Zhen Huan was anxious. The more Guo Junwang acted like this, the more flustered she became.
Just as Guo Junwang was about to say something, Ye Fan suddenly appeared behind him. Under Zhen Huan's surprised gaze, Ye Fan said coldly,"Which concubine is she? Does it have anything to do with Guo Junwang?”
Guo Junwang heard this and turned around. When he saw the python robe on Ye Fan, he frowned and scolded,"Who are you? As an official of the imperial court, how could he dare to enter the harem? Do you want to die?"
Guo Junwang was the 13th brother of Yongzheng and was deeply loved by the Emperor. He was the right-hand man of Yongzheng in history.
However, this was not a big problem for Ye Fan.
Ye Fan ignored Guo Junwang's question and walked to Zhen Huan's side. Under everyone's shocked gazes, he held Zhen Huan's hand and said,""Huan Huan, let's go."
The little servant girl naturally followed closely behind.
Hearing Guo Junwang's voice, Ye Fan stopped and said to the servant girl behind him,""Send your little master back first."
After saying that, he patted Zhen Huan's shoulder to reassure her and went back alone.
Ye Fan watched Zhen Huan and the servant girl disappear, then turned to Guo Junwang and said,""It seems that some things will still happen no matter how they change.”
Guo Junwang didn't understand what Ye Fan was saying. He frowned and said,""Stop spouting nonsense here. Hurry up and tell me who you are. If you don't tell me, I'll take you to see my royal brother!”
After saying that, the Six Pulses Divine Sword was instantly activated. However, unlike usual, what Ye Fan shot out this time was a hidden weapon!
After killing Guo Junwang in one strike, the servant beside Guo Junwang was immediately stunned. Under his terrified gaze, Ye Fan directly came to his side and stretched out his hand to break his neck.
Looking at the two corpses, Ye Fan's deep feelings did not fluctuate. He got up and quickly left the scene.
Ten minutes later, a young eunuch suddenly came and shouted,""Murder! Murder! Murder!"
With this shout, the entire palace instantly became lively.
The imperial guards quickly sealed off the entire murder scene and reported the news to the Emperor.
Guo Junwang was not only Yongzheng's brother, but also the person who helped him ascend the throne. When he heard the news of Guo Junwang's death, even though Yongzheng was seriously injured, he still called for the eunuchs to help him to the scene.
Looking at Guo Junwang's death, Emperor Yong Zheng shouted angrily,""Arrogant! Truly savage! You actually killed someone in my palace! It's even more…"
"You even tried to assassinate me! Truly audacious! Ye Fan! Where is Ye Fan?"
Outside the crowd, Ye Fan slowly walked in front of Emperor Yongzheng and said,"Your subject is here."
The surrounding people, including the imperial guard commander, saw Ye Fan appear in front of the furious Yong Zheng and were waiting to watch a good show.
"Zhen asks you, as the Head of the Imperial Household and the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, you actually let people do such evil things in my Imperial Palace. Do you know your crime?”
Yong Zheng said angrily.
Ye Fan's words caused a thousand ripples. Everyone present was shocked by his boldness.
"What did you say?" Yong Zheng said with his eyes wide open.
Ye Fan's words were reasonable. Yong Zheng knew as soon as he heard it. But at this moment, he had already called Ye Fan out. How could he not vent his anger?
"Good! Then let me ask you, did you have any results from the investigation of the assassination?”
Yong Zheng knew that it was impossible for Ye Fan to investigate anything in such a short period of time, so he said this now to find an excuse to punish him!
