"Your Majesty, may you be well and safe. Your Majesty is so polite."

Pei Yuqing quickly withdrew his gaze with an indifferent expression, took a step back according to etiquette, and saluted Sheng Wu.

It was obvious that Sheng Wu's words just now were just a courtesy, and there was a hint of disgust in the gloomy eyes.

His deep, three-dimensional features made him appear even more superior. His skin was pale, almost bloodless. His sword-like brows were sharp, yet a hint of femininity was present between them. His eyes seemed inlaid with inky black gemstones, sparkling with starlight. He wore a brocade robe with a python pattern, exuding a noble and fierce aura.

This is the super villain in the original plot, the head of the Western Factory, Pei Yuqing.

He was an important link used by the late emperor to counter the court officials. He could do whatever the late emperor pointed at. On the surface, it was because the late emperor was incompetent, promoted and reused eunuchs, and ignored court officials. But secretly, it was just a cover to help the late emperor deal with the court officials.

As for the fact that such a capable late emperor would marry his own son's engaged princess, it was probably because he was old and always liked to grab the best things that did not belong to him.

Of course, Pei Yuqing is not a good character, as he is able to go against all the civil and military officials and still live to this day. He is extremely powerful, cruel, and has killed people like crazy, otherwise he would not be the last obstacle that stands between the male and female protagonists.

It's just that now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the two of them didn't get along when the male protagonist was still the crown prince. Now that the old emperor has suddenly died, naturally, the power conflict between the two has become prominent.

But the new emperor had just ascended the throne and had just eliminated some dissidents, so it was difficult to move the important branches again. This is why things were peaceful.

Sheng Wu stood in front of him and saw him take half a step back, and the corners of her lips curled up.

"Why did Lord Pei come so far from me? Are you afraid that I will eat you?"

As she spoke, Sheng Wu took another step forward, her skirt rippled with patterns, and her beautiful eyes went straight into Pei Yuqing's sight.

A faint fragrance of hibiscus wafted from the tip of his nose. It was not strong, but very pleasant. However, Pei Yuqing's somewhat feminine and cold face was icy, his sinister eyes darkened slightly, and he stood there nodding silently.

His deep voice was somewhat feminine, but not overly girly, more like a leading actor in an opera troupe.

"Your Majesty, I am worried. I am humble and I dare not offend your Majesty."

Sheng Wu was not afraid at all of his cold and calm rejection, and her narrow and seductive eyes seemed to be smiling.

Suddenly,

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

Pei Yuqing's expression changed slightly, and he turned his head to look in the direction of the door.

Here, Sheng Wu immediately raised her hand, and her slender jade fingers directly touched Pei Yuqing's heart.

She spoke softly and charmingly, "Lord Pei, there's no need to belittle yourself. I'm very optimistic about you."

Tsk, she has a nice figure.

Pei Yuqing was not as slender and frail as other eunuchs. Instead, he was tall and slender, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His chest was pressed against the fabric and slightly undulated. At first glance, he had a reserved figure that made him look thin when dressed and muscular when undressed.

Pei Yuqing looked at the door, but there was no one there. He felt fooled!

He turned around and saw that Sheng Wu had already touched his hand, with a shameless look of enjoying it.

"Get out of here!" a murderous shout came.

Before Pei Yuqing could get angry, Sheng Wu quickly released her hand and took a few steps back.

"Swish!"

Sure enough, the next second, there was the sound of a blade being unsheathed.

There was a trace of the blade where Sheng Wu had just stopped. If she had moved her hand a step later, there would probably be another severed finger on the ground.

This did not affect Pei Yuqing's already feminine and cold face, which became gloomy and terrifying, and his narrow, sinister and sharp eyes grabbed her like poisonous needles.

"If the Queen Mother wishes to accompany the late Emperor, I can escort you."

The gloomy and poisonous gaze did not conceal the murderous intent and disgust in the slightest.

At the same time, Heituanzi's scream sounded in Shengwu's mind.

[Favorability - 100! ! ! 】

Sheng Wu frowned imperceptibly and blocked out its ghostly howls.

Then he raised his hand to cover his mouth and chuckled, his body shaking with laughter, not like a normal person. He laughed so hard that tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, and just before Pei Yuqing was about to lose his patience, he spoke.

"Lord Pei really can't help but joke, accompanying the late emperor..."

He paused, his tone scornful and sarcastic.

"The late emperor's old bones, a rotten old man, I would feel too burdened to move myself, it would be better for him to accompany someone like Pei Duzhu, who has the appearance of a banished immortal."

Sheng Wu stared at the person in front of her with charming eyes, not realizing at all how outrageous her words were.

But Pei Yuqing's face suddenly turned dark, he flicked his sleeves and took another step back.

Rarely could he reveal his disgust and anger uncontrollably, his thin crimson lips speaking coldly.

"Empress Dowager, be careful with your words! The late emperor's body is still warm, and your reckless words will bring disgrace to the royal family. If someone with ulterior motives hears this, I, a humble servant, will save my life, but I fear that disaster will come to the Empress Dowager and the General's Mansion!"

Seeing that he was far away from her, she was afraid that if she went crazy again, she would implicate him. She looked like "If you want to go crazy, you will die. Stay away from me."

Sheng Wu found it very amusing, but she did not continue to jump around Pei Yuqing's bottom line. She lazily adjusted the slightly swaying hairpin at her temples, with an elegant posture.

She murmured in a coquettish tone, sounding both angry and scolding.

"Oh, if only the General's Mansion could be dragged into this as well, then I wouldn't have to go through all this trouble to seduce Governor Pei."

Her beautiful eyes were slightly lowered, and her curled and dense eyelashes concealed a hint of viciousness deep in her eyes.

The General's Mansion is not a good place, that's it.

Then don’t live anymore.

Pei Yuqing's cold brows suddenly frowned, and his forehead was already hurt by her shocking tone.
