Although to interrogate someone with the involvement of torture might seem inhumane, but sometimes this methods are necessary for certain types of people. After a night of torture, the head housekeeper from the Xu Family finally admitted his crimes. This Housekeeper Fang works for Xu Shang Yong as the head housekeeper, while his wife is the Madam's right hand person.
Xu Shang Yong is the father of Xu Wei Rong, the empress dowager's younger brother, he is always involved with cases of bullying woman and causing them to suicide, which after Ji Jungkook has settled the case, and sent him to his death. Now, the person in charge of the family is the eldest son of Xu Shang Yong, Xu Ling, the brother of Xu Wei Rong. Within his many children, Xu Shang Yong only has this son from the main wife. So the Madam also treats the son like her life, with the addition of his useless father, the result is that the son grew up to be the same type of person his father was. Not only that he is a well known player, with an empress dowager aunt, and a bunch of useless friends, which praises him up to the sky as a usual routine, it made him a person that cannot accept defeat.
According to the housekeeping couple, they did receive orders from their master, to spread the rumours about the empress. The officer who interrogated them was very detailed, not only that the both of them admitted that the Madam Xu gave out the orders, but they also said that the Eldest son was also involved, ordering them to do so.
Putting down the report, Ji Jungkook looked towards the kneeling officer and ordered "Capture the entire Xu Family, no matter male or female, young or old. Xu Ling is to be interrogated alone, while the rest are to be remained captive first, and await for orders"
"Understood"
Feng You De walked in the hall, and politely said "Your majesty, Minister Fang has arrived from your orders"
"Let him in"
Fang Xiu Qing works in the nearby office, which was not too far from Yang Xin Hall, so he was often called upon by Ji Jungkook, therefore he did not felt anything was wrong, and thought it was the normal office business. However, ever since he stepped into the hall, Ji Jungkook has not mentioned a single word about work, and only discussed with him about Xian Concubine.
Although Ji Jungkook was speaking about It calmly, but the more Fang Xiu Qing listen, the more scared he becomes, after a few sentences, cold sweat starts to form, threatening to drop down. Although the emperor did not mention explicitly, but somehow or other, he can hear his dissatisfied tone about Xian Concubine, although he seems to be praising her, with the skin alone smiling, gritting his teeth speaking about the good things about her, in another person's ears, it was much more scary than scolding.
Xian Concubine has already entered the palace, the emperor's woman, according to the rules, if she has done anything wrong, the emperor can punish her accordingly, why would he call in this minister to say this type of things?
It was to notify him, to warn him, to settle his own daughter? Or was it to tell him, that he will spare her this time, to give face
No matter which case was it, there was one thing that can be confirmed: This time my daughter has created too big of a trouble, crossing the emperor's bottom line.
Fang Xiu Qing does not know what Ji Jungkook was thinking, so he can only say "I did not teach my daughter properly, making the emperor troubled, it really makes me shameful"
"I was not really troubled, the person who was really troubled was the empress" JI Jungkook answered.
Seems like the case involves the empress, Fang Xiu Qing thought. The Ye Family's daughter really cannot be underestimated, last time she was treated as though as the emperor's enemy, now their relationship has turned so good.
