After saying that, he was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to take off, Di Fei grabbed Shen Zhao's trouser leg: "No, big brother, I've already told you so much, aren't you going to help me?"
"How can I help you?"
"Help me break free from the clutches of the villains and regain my freedom."
"Have you been listening to too many storytellers, or are you out of your mind? You think I'd help you just because I said a few words to you? Our relationship isn't that close."
"No, brother, you're so strong, you must have a way. Here's what we'll do: if you can help me with this, I'll tell you a secret about the Empress."
"What secret?"
Shen Zhao immediately became interested.
Di Fei looked around in surprise, then whispered, "That day, I served the Empress morning tea without informing her beforehand..."
Upon entering her palace, they heard the Empress lying on her bed, embracing a portrait and making sounds typical of masturbation.
Shen Zhao was taken aback upon hearing this, thinking to himself: Holy crap, is she that thirsty? This has overturned my image of the elegant traditional empress.
This news is indeed explosive; once it's sold, it could make you rich.
The prerequisite is that you must survive the Empress's revenge.
Seeing Shen Zhao's disbelieving look, Di Fei panicked: "I really didn't lie to you, that slight breathing sound..."
And there was a figure wriggling on the bed, muttering something about wanting me, giving me a child, and so on.
It was clearly a sign that a woman was in heat. Later, I confirmed my suspicions by looking at the Empress's still flushed face.
Fortunately, I hid it very well. You wouldn't believe the way I looked at him—like I was a dead man.
So you're saying everything was just your guess?
"No, I'm 100% sure it's true, after all, I've been with countless women this past year."
When the women in brothels couldn't satisfy their sexual desires, they would resort to masturbation to relieve stress.
"It's like when we men are happy, we reward ourselves with a few rounds—nothing to be surprised about."
"So, what is your purpose in telling me this secret?"
"Brother, don't you understand? I know such a shocking secret. If my identity is exposed, I will have no way to survive. Please, brother, save me no matter what."
Shen Zhao was stunned for a moment before finally reacting. He pointed at Di Fei and said in shock and anger, "You dare to trick me!"
"Brother, you've finally realized what's going on. With the Empress's temper, if anyone finds out about this, there's no chance of survival. So, we're in the same boat now."
Please, brother, save my life no matter what. It's the same as saving your own.
Otherwise, if I hadn't kept my mouth shut before I died and said something like that, my older brother would have suffered the same fate, wouldn't you say?
"Sixth Brother, to think that someone as shrewd as me, Chu Liuxiang, could be outsmarted by an ant like you, you really pulled a brilliant move."
"What a pity, I, Chu, have never stained my hands with blood in my entire life, otherwise you would already be a corpse. You're ruthless enough, I admit defeat."
"Brother, don't be angry. I just want to save my own life. This water is too deep. It's really hard for me to handle it alone. So I'll pull one person out as much as I can, so that I'll have a companion when I die."
"Alright, I'll help you out for now, but you also have to help me lure out the mastermind behind you."
“If he comes looking for me, I will definitely bring him here for my elder brother.”
Helpless, Shen Zhao got up to leave when suddenly the sky darkened and a dark cloud swept towards Yanhuang City like a tidal wave.
"A storm is brewing; Yanhuang City is likely to be in turmoil."
