Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 273 - 271 Sixth Prince Requests an Audience

It can’t be denied that the Emperor’s physical strength is impressive, carrying Lin Yi as though he was holding nothing at all.

However, naturally, Lin Yi himself could not tolerate being carried by a woman like this.

Thus, during the process, he suddenly opened his mouth and bit towards the person in front of him.

This made the young Emperor, who was carrying him, shudder, almost throwing Lin Yi out.

Moments later, the Empress finally understood what this small hole was for.

This made her feel both shy and amused at the same time.

She also thought to herself that once she’s back, she would write down this method in a picture book and pass it to her mother through her subordinates.

Through that small hole, the Empress sensed something extraordinary was at work.

This facilitated the plan between the young Emperor and Lin Yi even more.

While the young Emperor and the Empress were blatantly talking, the young Emperor also shared his insights with Lin Yi.

The two of them were indeed enjoying their conversation.

Until the next day, as Lin Yi left the Imperial Study Room and headed to the Glazed Tile Hall which he hadn’t visited for a long time, he kept recalling last night’s events in the carriage.

Every time he thought about it, Lin Yi would ponder intensely, contemplating what kind of new item he should invent next that could allow several people to compete together.

However, he thought about the young Emperor’s sigh:

"Oh, this can’t go on like this. The Empress keeps bothering me every now and then, giving me such a headache at times.

You are alright here in the Imperial Palace, but if you were not here, I wouldn’t know how to cope."

Lin Yi too felt troubled by this issue, as he could not guarantee that he would always stay within the Imperial Palace without leaving.

After all, there were many matters waiting for his attention at the Nanshan Base.

Therefore, he would likely seldom return to the Imperial Palace in the future.

Thinking along these lines, it seemed necessary to think of a solution that would neither require him to return to the Imperial Palace nor satisfy both the Emperor and the Empress.

"Alas, it seems I have no choice but to resort to that method.

At the very least it will ensure the Emperor’s peace for ten months!"

Although that was said, such a matter would still require the Emperor’s consent to be implemented.

Otherwise, there was nothing that could be done.

After all, those skilled in martial arts do have some capabilities. If the person is unwilling, they might forcibly repel any imposition.

It seems that tonight, upon returning, I must discuss this matter with the Emperor.

As Lin Yi’s carriage stopped outside the Glazed Tile Hall, within the Imperial Palace, the young Emperor who had just returned from the court received a message from a eunuch:

"Your Majesty, Sixth Prince seeks an audience outside the hall."

Hearing this, the young Emperor gestured to a nearby attendant to stop them from helping him to remove his Dragon Robe and then spoke out to the outside:

"Let the Sixth Imperial Uncle come in."

As he spoke, he walked towards the Imperial Table.

Meanwhile, the young Emperor also pondered why the Sixth Imperial Uncle would seek him out at this moment?

Today in the morning court, the Sixth Imperial Uncle was very low-key and did not utter a single word, it was unknown what he wanted now.

Just as the young Emperor had finished preparing, with the guidance of the small eunuch, the Sixth Prince also entered, bowing.

"Hehe, Sixth Imperial Uncle has arrived, find a seat for Sixth Imperial Uncle."

Though the Sixth Imperial Uncle had often made trouble for the young Emperor behind his back, at this moment it was still necessary to maintain appearances.

Seeing this, Sixth Prince bowed to the young Emperor and then smoothly took a seat on the stool the eunuch had moved for him, directly addressing the matter at hand:

"Your Majesty, I have come this time regarding the matter of the Guard General of the Imperial Camp.

Since we cannot confirm whether Zhao Heng is the true perpetrator! Whether he is responsible for all this! Then, I believe this man should no longer be employed!

The Imperial Camp is under my jurisdiction, and I shall handle it impartially.

Otherwise, how could I live up to Your Majesty’s regard and trust?

Though this Zhao Heng is like my right-hand man, a great general in my command, the law applies equally to the prince and the commoner.

Since he is now unable to clear his name of these charges, I certainly shall not shield him.

Thus, I have come this time to request Your Majesty to issue a decree to first dismiss and deal with Zhao Heng.

If he can indeed clear his name, reinstating his official position can always be done later."

These words were spoken with such righteousness, a perfect embodiment of justice over kinship.

It appeared as though all this was for the Emperor’s sake.

On the contrary, the young Emperor was fully aware at this moment.

She already knew the true identity of this Zhao Heng, that he is a member of the Hidden Guard.

The Hidden Guard would absolutely not betray her.

And for this reason, the young Emperor also knew that the Hidden Guard would never be loyal to Sixth Prince.

Thus, she naturally understood what Sixth Prince’s actions today entailed.

At the same time, when she looked at Sixth Prince, it was as if she was looking at a clown.

Presumably, this old fellow came here this time, wishing to replace Zhao Heng with his own man as one of his motives.

Another might be to probe the depths of my thoughts?

To gauge the exact relationship between Zhao Heng and myself.

It must be said, this old fellow’s scheming was indeed clever.

However, the young Emperor who had seen through everything naturally would not fall for his trap.

After hearing the words of Sixth Prince, the young Emperor also immediately furrowed her brows, adopting a thoughtful demeanor.

After a good long while, she spoke somewhat helplessly:

"Why did Sixth Imperial Uncle not discuss these matters with me before?

Considering Sixth Imperial Uncle’s face, I had released him.

But I did not expect Sixth Imperial Uncle to think this way.

What use is there for Sixth Imperial Uncle to speak of these now?

I have already issued a decree in front of the Civil and Military Officials to release him.

If I were to stand out now and take him down again, where would I put my face? Where would I place my authority?

Since this matter belongs to Sixth Imperial Uncle, let’s do it this way; I will leave this matter for Sixth Imperial Uncle to handle.

In any case, whatever Sixth Imperial Uncle does, I will absolutely not interfere."

This time, the young Emperor also adeptly mastered the art of turning the tables.

Although the young Emperor allowed Sixth Prince to handle it as he pleased, in the ears of Sixth Prince, it was utterly frustrating.

Handle it on his own?

If he could handle Zhao Heng himself, would he still need to resort to these petty schemes here?
