Chapter 354 The Ugly Flower
"Jiang Yushi has to be careful, this divine horse is aloof, if there is anything that doesn't suit its taste..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Zhiyu climb onto the horse, and the divine horse not only didn't resist at all, but even stepped on it lightly with its hooves, obviously very happy.
The eunuch was stunned.
If the horse hadn't injured several people, he would have been fooled by its docile appearance. There
was also a flash of surprise in the emperor's eyes.
He believed that Jiang Zhiyu could tame the horse, otherwise he would not have brought the horse here.
But he didn't expect that Jiang Zhiyu could tame it so... easily.
There was a flash of deep thought in He Yanting's eyes.
He saw clearly that Jiang Zhiyu not only did not tame the horse, but even when he got on the horse, he was patted by the horse's tail to urge him to get on.
The horse was intelligent, and such a familiar attitude showed that it was very familiar with Zhiyu.
But Zhiyu seemed to be seeing this horse for the first time...
Others did not think so much. The fiery red horse was really eye-catching, and the horse was not idle, taking Jiang Zhiyu to run around everywhere.
"Your whole body is red, as hot as a flame, so I'll call you Chiyan."
Jiang Zhiyu leaned on the horse's back and whispered.
The horse, who had been named, was obviously happier, running around happily, raising a lot of dust, and only around Xiao Yanli.
Xiao Yanli, who was choked by the dust and covered his nose with his hands: "..."
The master is annoying, and the beast he leads is equally annoying.
As if sensing his thoughts, Chi Yan dug the soil more vigorously, and large pieces of soil were thrown onto Xiao Yanli's gorgeous brocade robe, head, and face, as if he wanted to bury him directly.
The murderous intent in Xiao Yanli's eyes could hardly be concealed.
Jiang Zhiyu sat on the horse calmly and did not stop him.
Everyone looked over at once, with surprise, sneer, doubt... their eyes had different emotions.
No one thought that Jiang Zhiyu did it on purpose, after all, Jiang Zhiyu didn't even hold the reins.
Seeing that Xiao Yanli was about to lose his patience, Jiang Zhiyu patted the horse's back and signaled it to stop.
Chi Yan listened obediently and ran back to the emperor's side with Jiang Zhiyu on his back.
Such a spiritual horse is rare in the world.
Some people had a glimmer of greed in their eyes.
The emperor's mouth curled up, and it was obvious that he was very happy to see the scene just now. He looked at the horse with approval and shouted: "Return to the palace!"
The team moved forward. The ministers who passed by Xiao Yanli all restrained their smiles and expressed their concern symbolically. Xiao Yanli suppressed the anger in his heart and responded one by one.
The only ones who didn't talk to anyone were Xiao Lingyu and Hu Yan.
...
"...I have served the Queen Mother for three years. The Queen Mother wanted to take the life of my wife and the child in her belly from me. She said that if I didn't obey, I would see the corpses of my wife and child when I left the house the next day. I really have no choice."
In the study, Hu Yan knelt in the middle and accused with tears in his eyes.
Jiang Zhiyu and He Yanting sat beside him.
The emperor's face was calm. Hu Yan continued, "There was often incense burning in the Cining Palace. Later, I found out that it was an aphrodisiac scent made by the perfumer specially for the purpose of adding to the fun."
"In order to prevent this from being exposed, she would always ask the perfumer to stockpile a large amount at a time, and then kill it. After the incense was used up, she would find the next perfumer, and repeat this cycle over and over again."
The emperor tapped the table lightly with his fingertips. Mistaking it for an urging, Hu Yan swallowed and continued, "If these people had parts of their bodies that she liked, she would order people to cut them off and put them in a dark room. The bodies would either be thrown into a well or a pond."
"That's all I know."
The air fell into silence. The emperor did not hear any rebuttal from Jiang Zhiyu's inner voice, and his eyes were dim.
"How to get into the secret room, do you know?"
Hu Yan pursed his lips: "I don't know, every time I go in, she will cover my eyes with a piece of cloth."
As if he remembered something, his face flashed with shame and anger.
The emperor's lips moved slightly, and he was about to speak, but he heard Jiang Zhiyu's inner voice faintly:
[That old woman is really a toad looking for a frog - an ugly flower. ]
[In addition to showing off by taking them into the secret room, sometimes they will also bring their wives into the secret room and do those dirty things in front of her. ]
Emperor: "???"
He Yanting: "..."
The emperor swallowed the words he wanted to ask.
His face was as gloomy as water, and his face was ashen.
[Not only that, sometimes she favors more than one person, and in private, she does everything. ]
[Abandoning married men, there are also murders, and those weird games. 】
【Partying every night, indulging in male beauty, this is the life of my dreams! 】
Emperor: “!!!”
He Yanting: “!!!”
Wait? What? !
What are you dreaming about? !
Compared with the previous words, the latter words are not as shocking as the previous ones.
The emperor looked at He Yanting.
It was the first time in his life that he saw such a wonderful expression on He Yanting's face.
If he was not worried that Jiang Zhiyu would find out, the emperor would laugh for an hour without stopping.
He Yanting did not have time to pay attention to the emperor's mentality of watching the show, his mind was spinning rapidly.
Zhiyu has a negative attitude towards feelings, right?
Her previous words clearly stated this point, right?
Now she is indulging in male beauty and partying every night, could it be that...
she wants to be like the emperor and have a harem? !
He Yanting could even hear the grinding sound coming from his teeth.
The emperor withdrew his gaze from He Yanting and asked Hu Yan with a hint of smile in his tone: "Besides you, who else is there?"
Hu Yan's face suddenly darkened, and he felt his entire face burning: "I know only one person - Zuodu Yushi Guo Zeyuan."
...
In Cining Palace, the Queen Mother looked frightened.
"Soothing incense! Give me soothing incense! Where's Song Shiwei? Bring her here!"
Her screams were too loud, and the Jinyiwei ran in with a frown: "What are you screaming for..."
His voice stopped abruptly.
The Queen Mother lay on the ground, rolling and scratching herself. Her face, hands, and any exposed skin were all covered in blood.
Even so, she kept scratching and her body was shaking violently.
Seeing that his companion had not come out for a long time, another Jinyiwei also ran in. He also stopped asking questions and stood there in a daze, looking at the empress dowager who was rolling around.
After being stunned for a long time, they came to their senses.
"Quick! Go report to the emperor, I'll call the imperial physician!"
...
In the study, the emperor was still asking about the household, and Fuping ran in hurriedly with a Jinyiwei.
The Jinyiwei knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, but did not dare to pause for a word, and said in one breath: "Your Majesty, the empress dowager seems to be possessed by evil spirits and keeps scratching herself with scars all over her body. She seems to be dying!"
The emperor: "!!!"
