Chapter 86 The Charlatan Imperial Advisor Was Captured by the Dark-Faced Tyrant 44 (Completed)
"Sheng Sheng, what did you just say?! You're running away from home—"
"Shh, keep your voice down," Yu Sheng quickly covered 888's mouth.
Then she continued to complain about Xie Hanzhou, saying, "This is unbearable. He's like a beast; he doesn't know the meaning of self-control at all."
888 posed the profound question, "So you didn't get any pleasure?"
Yu Sheng: "..."
"Look, you've fallen silent. Is that why you want to run away from home?"
Yu Sheng nodded. "I want him to know that disobeying his wife will cost him her!"
888 gave a perfunctory "uh-huh," but its intuition told it that these were just little romantic gestures between the couple.
You even ran away from home. You ran away from home, and then he went to catch you and locked you up in a dark room, right?
Don't try to fool the leader; he has already seen through everything!
888 decided to help them and used points to buy Yu Sheng medicine to restore his stamina and heal his injuries.
After taking the medicine, Yu Sheng felt like she had finally come back to life.
He stretched his body and was still able to run.
After writing down Xie Hanzhou's "evidence," Yu Sheng pocketed the 888, made a spell, returned to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, filled it with some silver, and ran away.
888 was completely dumbfounded.
No, are you in such a hurry?
I haven't had a chance to eat my braised pork knuckle yet! I specially asked Chef Zhang to save it for me.
Waaaaah.jpg
While 888 was missing the braised pork knuckle, Xie Hanzhou was also constantly thinking about his Sheng Sheng.
But looking at the memorials piled up more than a meter above his head, he couldn't laugh anymore.
Then he began frantically reviewing memorials.
After finally finishing reviewing the memorials, Xie Hanzhou stretched and prepared to return to his palace to take a nice nap with his Sheng Sheng.
However, when he returned to his palace, he felt as if the sky had fallen.
No, what about his empress?
Xie Hanzhou, with his sharp eyes, spotted the "evidence of Xie Hanzhou's crimes" on the table.
Upon opening it, his face instantly darkened.
His Sheng Sheng has run away from home!
They even wrote down dozens of pieces of evidence against him.
Steward An felt it was best for him to disappear for a while, otherwise he feared that His Majesty might make him disappear permanently.
He had barely turned around when Xie Hanzhou stopped him, "Steward An, investigate! Find out where Sheng Sheng went no matter what!"
"Then, I will go myself and bring him back..."
"Yes, Your Majesty, this old servant obeys!"
Xie Hanzhou's empress disappeared, and he began to go mad at any time.
He finds fault with everything and everyone. Not to mention the dogs on the street, even the grass on the ground is subject to his sarcastic remarks after he glances at it.
His oppressive aura spread from his bedchamber throughout the entire palace, and even officials of all ranks in the capital knew that the Empress had fled.
On the first day Yu Sheng ran away from home, Xie Hanzhou attacked all the ministers indiscriminately during court.
Even those who have no real grounds for attack can be attacked by him simply because they stepped forward with their left foot first when going to court today.
Xie Hanzhou's single-handed rebuke caused several ministers to claim illness and not come to court the following day.
"Hmph! Sick? I saw them all grinning from ear to ear yesterday, weren't they having a great time? Why are they all claiming to be sick today?"
"He had an upset stomach this morning and couldn't come. I think he fell into the latrine and can't get out! Should I send someone to rescue him?"
"And what about the Prime Minister? You suddenly tripped and fell down when you went out? With your old bones, wouldn't you have been sent to heaven if you fell?"
"And you lot, all with your heads down, is there your wives on the ground or something?"
The courtiers: Although we don’t understand what Your Majesty is saying, it’s certain that there is no Empress on the ground.
All the ministers, whether they attended the morning court or stubbornly asked for leave, were praying in their hearts that Xie Hanzhou would find Yu Sheng as soon as possible, otherwise, given his current state, he might very well return as a tyrant.
"Your Majesty, I am your younger brother..."
"Why did you call me? Are you trying to show off that you have a wife?" Xie Hanzhou said sarcastically.
Xie Tingsheng: "..."
Okay, okay, we all know your empress has run away, you don't need to remind us like this, do you?
"Your Majesty, what I really wanted to say was that the Assassin's Guild sent word that they had spotted Her Majesty the Empress in Luo City."
Xie Hanzhou instantly perked up.
Xie Hanzhou's face darkened again. "So, is Sheng Sheng going to find that bastard Qin Zheng?"
It's no wonder Xie Hanzhou reacted so strongly. Luocheng is located in the direction of the neighboring country. Although it's not a border city, Xie Hanzhou still firmly believes that Qin Zheng is his rival in love.
Qin Zheng: I've had the worst luck in my life.
What the hell does he look like Xie Hanzhou's love rival? Can't we just leave him alone?
So you only have me as your rival in love?
Damn it, I live so far away from your wife, how did you connect that to me?
Xie Hanzhou is very persistent when it comes to dealing with his love rival.
Of course, this persistence was limited to Qin Zheng alone.
"Sheng Sheng... I've caught you..." Xie Hanzhou covered his mouth and chuckled, making the ministers tremble with fear.
No, His Majesty's smile is so creepy!
Light a candle for the Empress in advance.
******
At that moment, Yu Sheng suddenly sneezed.
Achoo!
"Damn, is that bastard Xie Hanzhou talking about me again?"
Yu Sheng slurped her noodles and, when no one was looking, secretly slipped a chicken leg to 888.
888 hid on Yu Sheng's lap, eating chicken legs in big bites.
"888, you know, my eyelids have been twitching lately, and I have this bad feeling about it?"
888 replied dismissively, "Maybe your eyelids are twitching!"
Yu Sheng had a bad feeling, as if Xie Hanzhou had discovered her.
He told 888 what he said, and 888 rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're overthinking it. You've been so careful, how could he possibly find out? Don't worry, don't worry!"
Hearing this, Yu Sheng put the matter out of her mind.
Yu Sheng came to Luocheng because Luocheng is far enough from the capital and is somewhat remote, so he is not afraid of being found by Xie Hanzhou.
He was proven wrong a week later.
Yu Sheng was chewing on a blade of grass, rubbing against the old man's donkey cart, when suddenly a cloud of dust rose up ahead.
Yu Sheng and the old man coughed violently.
After the dust settled, he saw Xie Hanzhou sitting on his horse with a dark expression.
Yu Sheng cried out in alarm and turned to run away.
But Xie Hanzhou still managed to catch him.
Xie Hanzhou leaned close to his ear and said menacingly, "Got you, Sheng Sheng..."
To the old man's astonishment, Yu Sheng was taken away by Xie Hanzhou, who didn't forget to pocket the 888 before leaving.
He was captured and taken back to the palace.
Yu Sheng tried to explain, but Xie Hanzhou didn't give him a chance at all and directly chained him to the dragon bed with golden chains.
A bunch of trinkets were placed on the bedside table, which made Yu Sheng feel a chill in her heart.
"No, Xie Hanzhou, let me explain—"
"If I don't teach you a lesson, you might run away from home again..."
"I was wrong, no, I've already admitted my mistake, why are you still... Ugh—Xie Hanzhou, I'm going to kill you!"
******
"Sheng Sheng, you said before that you would never leave me. Sheng Sheng, you broke your promise, so I have no choice but to lock you up."
"If I lock it up, only I can watch it..."
"Well, that's what happens when I catch you, Sheng Sheng~"
