"What kind of magic is this? I'm afraid you want to be beaten!"
There was a crackling sound inside and screams broke the sky.
"My… Master, someone is stopping the car outside."
Zhao Xin sat steadily in the car with a cup of tea in his hand. Before he could take a sip, he heard a loud commotion outside. Some people even tried to stop the dragon chariot.
After all, this was outside, and Zhao Xin didn't want to be too pretentious, so generally these people outside called him Master.
"Ask them what's going on."
Zhao Xin wanted to hurry back to the palace to deal with the blood he had coughed up and the thick layer of black mud on his body. So, it would be best if he could get rid of them as soon as possible.
"What on earth is going on with you guys?"
Before the question was finished, the curtain was drawn aside, and a figure suddenly entered the chariot and sat down next to Zhao Xin. The woman was already panting, but when she saw Zhao Xin's face again, she was stunned for a moment.
"Brother, please let this woman hide here."
There was an army chasing and shouting behind them, and the voices sounded familiar. The voice of the leader was none other than Yu Huatian.
"Where did that woman hide?"
Yu Huatian casually waved his sword twice in the air as if to vent his anger. The crackling sound of the sword breaking through the air made the group of people in the dragon chariot panic.
Could it be... in this carriage?
"General, this is—"
Yu Huatian snorted coldly, completely ignoring the woman's words. He grabbed his sword and walked over, fearing that the woman would play tricks. However, when he lifted the curtain, he saw Zhao Xin's face.
The cold, calm and meticulous face was silently staring at Yu Huatian's astonished face. Yu Huatian even wiped his eyes and looked inside again.
?
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty?!"
He had a cold face and touched the trembling body in his arms, but a smile appeared on his face.
"Is this woman from the evil mansion?"
"Your Majesty, that's right."
The woman immediately raised her head and took several steps back, nearly tripping over her own feet. She stared at the two people opposite her with wide eyes, her tongue almost curling.
"You, are you in the same group?"
“…”
It was not easy for this woman to understand it at first.
*
Zhao Xin was not stingy and simply opened up a courtyard for her to stay in. The woman was dissatisfied and even angry. He did not get angry either, and with a calm face, he leaned towards her.
"So you want to stay at the Ministry of Punishment for two days?"
There was a strange silence in the air for two seconds.
Zhao Xin said from the bottom of his heart that this woman was indeed extremely beautiful, but not as beautiful as Su Qingyu. Su Qingyu's face was gentle and plain, very simple and innocent, the look of a good wife and mother.
This woman was charming yet enchanting, with a touch of sassiness, which really attracted his attention.
"Emperor...Emperor, why are you staring at me like that?"
Zhao Xin slowly lowered his head and kissed the woman's face, smiling a few times as if bewitched. He really wanted to just hold several women and lie in the land of tenderness.
But, it doesn't work.
He suddenly woke up and placed her in the Suxue Palace. There were few people in the harem, and he had been screening strictly. Except for a few who pleased him, the rest were demoted or expelled.
"Just stay here, don't cause me any trouble, and wait for your elder brother to redeem you."
The woman was originally quite nice, but when she heard the word "big brother", she started to lose her temper and sat on the ground like a scoundrel, grabbing his dragon robe.
"Emperor brother, Xixi wants to leave the palace and go find her brother herself."
He was neither walking nor standing. Then the wooden door opened, and the concubines from other courtyards came in groups to humiliate the woman, but they ran into this scene.
"My concubines, how is the show?"
One of the concubines blinked, then nodded repeatedly, perhaps because the visual impact was too great. This show was truly spectacular. If only one of them had the nerve to cry like this, then the emperor would be easily captured.
Zhao Xin felt a little embarrassed, as if he was in a zoo.
"How about I let you continue watching?"
The voice was an octave lower, and those present couldn't care less about being crazy and knelt down one after another: "Your Majesty, calm down!"
Su Xi, who was sitting on the ground, was stunned. She obviously didn't know how the emperor could make these concubines so scared. Wasn't it rumored that he was a tyrant in power?
The concubines had more or less seen the emperor get angry, and it was that punishment that quieted the harem for a long time. After all, the emperor personally supported the queen and singled out all the concubines who were cruel and abusive to the queen and beat them up.
They were truly heartless and devoid of affection. They had no luck in enjoying the Emperor's presence, and they dared not openly intercept him. However, they thought they could still bully the Emperor's new concubine for a while since she hadn't been given a title.
Unexpectedly, she seemed to be more favored than the queen. They must have miscalculated this time.
"Why don't you just get out of here and wait for your beating?"
The concubines ran faster than rabbits, and soon there were only the two of them left in the room. The young eunuch at the door seemed to have seen through something and closed the door directly, while the other eunuch was still guarding outside the door.
Even the group of evil people who were planning to come and take people away were not seen.
"You eunuch, do you know who is imprisoned in there?"
Seeing the anxiety of the people on the other side, the eunuch was extremely calm. If he glanced at someone while the emperor was working inside, the person would probably be beaten to death with sticks.
So the eunuch was very firm: "No entry."
"Hey, you little eunuch—"
The room was unusually quiet, but Su Xi coughed up blood for some reason and his face turned pale. When he touched his leg, he found that he had been stabbed.
"Are they my soldiers?"
"No, it's the rebels who are chasing me."
Sure enough, Chu Zhan and Su Xi do have some relationship.
"The rebels worshipped that man as an immortal, and even granted his every wish."
Wasn't Chu Zhan already in jail? He was probably beaten to death, and this knife wound was obviously a new scar. Could there be some hidden secret?
"Your knife wound is fresh. Who cut you?"
"That Chu guy is crazy, I'm really blind."
really--
Wait, according to what this woman said, Chu Zhan was rescued?
Before he could ask, the woman confessed everything.
"Chu Zhan was carried back by someone, and he stabbed me right after he got back. If I hadn't dodged quickly, he would have stabbed me!"
Or let him run away?
Zhao Xin's gaze was as sharp as a torch, fixed on the woman across from him, who was speaking so eloquently. It seemed the plot had been altered to include an antagonist who admired the protagonist.
"Thinking of rebelling, do you really think I'm a great philanthropist?"
Having said that, he still picked up Su Xi's waist and put her on the bed.
