Chapter 3 Shadow Guard



Want him to satisfy Concubine Shu?

Lu Yun was completely confused, not understanding what was going on in this woman's train of thought.

"Your Majesty, you want me to sleep with Concubine Shu? Are you crazy?"

How could anyone else sleep with the emperor's concubine? Could it be that this woman is digging a hole for herself?

"If you don't sleep with Concubine Shu, my secret will be exposed when she comes. Are you trying to force me to execute you by slow slicing first?"

There was a strong murderous intent in Liang Jing's tone.

Lu Yun's neck shrank.

Is this really serious? Do you really want him to sleep with Concubine Shu?

"What, do you want to help me?"

"Uh... I'll do whatever Your Majesty asks. Anyway, it's not me who wants to sleep with Your Majesty..."

Seeing Lu Yun's cowardly look, Liang Jing snorted coldly and briefly told him what to do next.

Suddenly, there were three knocks on the windows of Taiqing Palace, two short and one long!

signal?

Someone uses secret codes to meet the emperor?!

Lu Yun was startled when he saw Liang Jing suddenly sit up straight, and in an instant he regained his imperial dignity and said to the window, "Come in!"

The next moment, the window opened, and a figure glided past like a ghost, kneeling in front of Liang Jing: "Shadow Guard Thirteen, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Damn, master!

Lu Yun's scalp tingled. Through his original body's memories, he knew clearly that there was not only the Great Zhou country in this continent, but also many countries that had developed powerful martial arts. For those countries, killing an ordinary person was as easy as crushing an ant!

So he wanted to get away, so he tried to say, "Slave, I'll go out first?"

"No, you have to keep it, stop talking nonsense!" Liang Jing's expression turned cold and he would not allow any questioning.

Lu Yun stopped talking, but took a half step back, trying to minimize his presence.

"Tell me, what exactly happened to General Shangguan Yun's serious illness?"

The man named Shadow Guard Thirteen looked up at Lu Yun, obviously on guard.

However, Liang Jing said, "It's okay. His name is Xiao Yunzi, and he is my confidant. Please tell me the details."

Shadow Guard Thirteen's face under the black robe was full of shock. In addition to them, the Emperor had other confidants, and they seemed to be closer to him than them!

Thinking of this, Shadow Guard Thirteen no longer hesitated and said quickly: "Your Majesty, this is what I found in the daily meals of General Shangguan Yun!" As he spoke, he took out a wooden box.

When it was opened, besides the black and purple bloodstains, there was actually a milky white wriggling worm with eyes all over its body, which was very creepy to look at.

Lu Yun, who was standing silently beside him, felt a chill down his spine and shouted, "How dare you show His Majesty such a dangerous thing!"

As he said this, he pulled back Liang Jing who was approaching out of curiosity.

Liang Jing's expression suddenly turned cold, "Thirteen!"

Shadow Guard Thirteen was quick-witted and hurriedly closed and sealed the wooden box. He quickly retreated more than ten steps, then glanced at the unharmed Emperor and Lu Yun with lingering fear, and said in fear: "Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I forgot the harm of this thing. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!"

At the same time, he glanced at Lu Yun with relief. This little eunuch was no ordinary person. He actually reacted before him...

Liang Jing's expression gradually eased, but she looked down coldly at Lu Yun's claws pressing on her chest.

Seeing this, Lu Yun also looked down. When he found the soft part he was pinching, he immediately withdrew his hand and smiled awkwardly.

Damn, I can't even hold it with one hand when it's tied up, it's going to suffocate me if I let it go, right?!

Liang Jing, not knowing what he was thinking, continued with a cold face, "That was a poisonous insect, right? Could it be that General Shangguan Yun got sick because of that?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am also confused. There is no such poison in the territory of my Great Zhou! Gu worms only grow in the territory of Miao, which is one country away from us. How could the general be poisoned by this thing?"

Hearing this, Lu Yun couldn't help but laugh. "So what if they're separated by a country? The general is infected with this poisonous insect. Whoever benefits the most is the one who colluded with them!"

One sentence!

Liang Jing and Shadow Guard Thirteen in the room opened their eyes wide.

Yes, how could the Miao Kingdom come to poison us when they are so far away!

No wonder the entire court recommended Xiao He to quell the rebellion. That's how it was! With General Shangguan Yun down, their Xiao family would be the biggest beneficiary!

“Damn it!”

Liang Jing clenched his fists tightly, and the next second he looked at Shadow Guard Thirteen and said, "Thirteen, you go down."

After Shadow Guard Thirteen retreated, she seemed to have let go of all her defenses. She leaned weakly on the dragon throne and looked at Lu Yun, who knew her secret and seemed to be the only one who could speak the truth. She said:

"Xiao Yunzi, the court is now full of cliques and factions. I haven't even trained any new people yet, and the general I rely on has been killed. What do you think I should do?"

You're telling this to a eunuch?

Lu Yun secretly complained that he didn't know much about politics. Since he couldn't answer, he changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, do you need a massage?"

"Massage? Don't you know how to massage acupuncture points?"

Which acupoint... Lu Yun glanced at it and said innocently, "Massage is more relaxing. Besides, Concubine Shu will be here soon, so it's not appropriate to massage your acupoints now. How about another day?"

"Well, that's fine!" Liang Jing nodded.

After a cup of tea.

"Ah... Xiao Yunzi... you, you be gentle..."

Liang Jing leaned back on the dragon throne and couldn't help but hum. It was so comfortable that he could clearly feel the fatigue in his body fading away.

She couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yunzi, how about you go and find out what Concubine Shu said for me?"

"What are you trying to find out? How could Her Majesty discuss anything other than His Majesty's health with a servant like me?"
