Chapter 171: Chapter 171: The emperor's wickedness

Shanguan Zu Jin's POV

I summoned Xu Jiaxu to the chamber where noble consort Wang stays while she's recuperating inside the empress's residence.

I was sitting on the balcony in the back when he came. "Why did you summon me, your master?" he asks.

I didn't look back and just stared at the tree of persimmon in front of me.

"I want you to lead some of our men. I need you to find the truth about Shi Rong's affair with noble consort Hao Xing. I want you to slowly expose their affair to Mrs. Shi," I stated.

I turned my body a little. He was surprised because of what I said. I know he will react that way.

"One more thing, I want you to find men who are ready to be paid to seduce Shi Yuyi.

I want someone who will be intimate with her in her chamber here in the palace. Make sure that servants will be able to see it," I added.
