Fletcher's Descent into the Abyss Chapter 217

It was raining and snowing in the capital today, and the cold was biting. Helian Hou knelt in the hall, his legs and feet were numb, and his sleeves were wet from crying.

"That Xue Yanqing is shameless and used all means to frame me. How can the bribery of Juexi's grain supervisor be linked to our Chuancheng? That is the territory of ** Mountain. If we really investigate, it is ** Mountain that is the mastermind!" Helian Hou took off his official hat and put it on his knees. He cried, "And Cen Xunyi, who is biting me now, is clearly trying to exclude dissidents and join hands with Xue Yanqing to set up a trap. They are doing a dog-like and fly-camping business, and Kong Boran is still tolerating the traitors, which is ruining the atmosphere of the court!"

"Don't fool me with such words!" The Queen Mother was furious. "If you really behave yourself, can Xue Xiuzhuo find out the accounting problem? The Western Grain Supervisor has embezzled a lot in Chuancheng. If you hadn't guaranteed him, would he have been so capable?!"

The lights in the palace were brightly lit, and all the palace eunuchs and eunuchs had retreated outside the palace door. Only Aunt Liuxiang knelt beside her to serve. Marquis Helian came to plead guilty. He was wearing thin clothes and was trembling under the wrath of the Queen Mother.

After Emperor Tianchen died, the Queen Mother took up the position of patching up the cracks in the family, and she was exhausted today. She sighed at the desolation of Marquis Helian through the pearl curtain.
