Chapter 76: Duke Su, you are always inferior to others!



The old emperor: "Did you find out? Who?"

The Minister of Justice uttered a name.

The old emperor was surprised for a moment.

"I remember now. It seems that the old man has a son who will also take the imperial examination this year. Haha, where is Shen Zhiyi?"

Chen Decai came over and said, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that you asked Shen Lang to have a good rest in the room today?"

"Of course I let her have a good rest, but that damn child didn't stay at home at all, and I didn't ask you."

Chen Decai, who was slapped away by the old emperor, huddled in a corner, feeling aggrieved.

The Dragon Scale Guard who had been secretly guarding the old emperor appeared and whispered in the old emperor's ear.

The old emperor lost control of his facial expression on the spot.

"No, why would she go there!"

The scene changed to the Duke Su's Mansion.

"Hey hey hey."

Aunt Cheng, who was standing on the tree, watched Shen Zhiyi, who was very agile, climb up the wall like a monkey and land lightly.

Then he ran straight towards Duke Su's kitchen.

Because of the monitoring system, as long as Shen Zhiyi wanted, she could know the detailed map of any place, so finding a kitchen was no problem at all.

There is still some time before the Duke Su's Mansion prepares lunch. Besides, it is just after breakfast and the people in the kitchen are taking a break. It is a good opportunity.

Shen Zhiyi kept an eye on the surveillance of the kitchen at Duke Su's Mansion at all times.

Great, no one!

She entered the kitchen smoothly and closed the door carefully.

Duke Suguo drinks medicinal soup every day. The soup needs to be boiled in advance, so there is a stove burning on a low fire to stew the soup.

Shen Zhiyi opened the lid and whispered, "Your uncle's second uncle, the dead Duke Su, actually gave me a laxative, which made me run to the toilet for two whole days, and it seemed like I was covered in shit!!!"

"I bought this laxative especially for you!"

The enhanced version can make people defecate for seven days, no problem at all!

After taking the laxative, Shen Zhiyi even went to the courtyard of Duke Suguo.

This made Aunt Cheng, who was watching secretly, terrified.

But Shen Zhiyi had seen it all, at this time, Duke Su would just stay in the study and not come out.

Anyway, the place she was going to was not one that the Duke of Su would go to now, and it was far from the study, so he wouldn't find her.

Aunt Cheng in the dark soon discovered that Shen Zhiyi was going to the toilet.

Duke Su was the only one who used the toilet. When Duke Su didn't go to the toilet, there were not many people around.

Shen Zhiyi took a deep breath, then held his breath and rushed into the toilet.

She took the dagger she had prepared long ago and sawed the pedal in half, so that whenever Duke Su came to use the toilet, he would fall directly into the pit.

“Hehehe.”

Shen Zhiyi showed a villain's smile and returned the same way with satisfaction. Everything seemed to be so secretive.

As soon as he climbed out of the wall, Shen Zhiyi noticed a lot of noise coming from outside the Duke Su's Mansion.

[Hey, why is the old emperor here? ]

The old emperor, who had just got off the carriage, staggered imperceptibly.

Why did he come?

Who else could it be for!

[Hey, the Minister of Justice is here too? ]

Shen Zhiyi, who was originally planning to run, decided not to do so anymore.

She climbed back up onto the wall.

[Could it be that the Ministry of Justice found the people in one night? How amazing! That’s a hundred people! ]

Speaking of those one hundred people, the corners of the Minister of Justice's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

You know, it’s a miracle to find those one hundred people who had touched the food box in one night!

But after confirming that it was someone from the Duke Su's Mansion, the Minister of Justice could not sit still for a moment.

Is that old guy sick?

The guy is about to burrow into the ground, and yet he still makes such a fuss.

The old emperor came suddenly, and the whole Suguo Mansion became busy.

Duke Su, who was originally in the study, came out immediately to greet him.

"I didn't know that Your Majesty would come so suddenly. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me for any inconsiderateness."

"It's okay. I'm not here to reminisce with you."

[Let’s talk about the past. Come on, give this old guy fifty lashes! ]

Duke Su's body suddenly stiffened.

The old emperor smiled and said, "It seems that you know the purpose of my coming here this time."

"Your Majesty, I just gave you some medicine to relieve your stomachache. It's nothing serious."

【Why is it not a big deal!!!】

[I went to the bathroom for two whole days! ]

Shen Zhiyi's frantic voice was so piercing that everyone's brains hurt.

"Duke Su, you make it sound so easy."

Duke Su smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I just saw that Chen Lang had some indigestion because she ate too much every day, so I just wanted to help her."

[Bah, you old bastard! ]

[You clearly don't want me to go to the audition tomorrow. ]

Duke Suguo waved his hands quickly: "Absolutely not!"

[It's so funny. My son is not doing well, so I want to do this. 】

Duke Suguo didn't like to hear this. Why couldn't his son live up to his expectations? After all, he was still a juren.

[Humph, this old guy and that guy, the prince's tutor, don't get along. They were classmates and took the imperial examination in the same year, but this old guy always ranks lower than the other.]

[It would be fine if he was ranked one place lower, but the other person got married a day earlier than him, and even had a baby a day earlier than him. For the sons born to the latter two, his son would have to have one less ranking than the other person's son to pass the exam.]

[Over time, this matter must have become a knot in the heart of Duke Suguo, and the Prince's Grand Tutor has become a mountain that can never be climbed in the heart of Duke Suguo. ]

Duke Suguo's face turned green with anger.

"fart!"

“Cough cough cough!”

With the old emperor's reminder, Duke Su shut his mouth and began to sulk.

Shen Zhiyi didn't notice it and was still madly stepping on Duke Su's landmines.

[Tsk tsk tsk, look at the son of the Prince's tutor. He passed the imperial examination three years ago and is now working for the Prince. He has gone to Jiangnan to provide disaster relief, and now he has come back with another achievement.]

Duke Suguo felt deeply displeased.

[Look at the son of Duke Suguo, who is also a juren. He failed the exam three years ago and failed again this year. His score was even worse than the one three years ago.]

Duke Su felt that he had high blood pressure!

[The son of Duke Su is really pitiful. He likes to study arithmetic, but in Duke Su's eyes, these are unlearned and unskillful. He insisted that his son fulfill his lifelong regret.]

【I am a rubbish, failure, old man. 】

[You can't do it yourself, but you still force your son to do it. It's useless! ]

After scolding Shen Zhiyi, he felt refreshed and in high spirits, sitting on the wall.

Duke Suguo picked up his cane and walked around the hall but didn't see Shen Zhiyi. Finally, he rolled his eyes in anger and sat down on the ground.

The servant immediately shouted, "Quick, go to the kitchen and bring the medicine!"

Shen Zhiyi:!!!

【How embarrassing. 】
