The original owner's wish was to take revenge on that despicable couple and then protect his country.
This task is easy to complete.
This is only the early stage of the story, and Ling Shuangxue's various assassinations, poisonings, and stabbings have only just begun.
The traces left by the assassins will become deadly evidence.
"His Majesty."
Once Yu Zhu's face recovered, he started hanging around in front of her again.
Ling Shuangxue understood what women were thinking, so she specially trained a handsome and obedient man and sent him to the Empress's side.
Yu Zhu always manages to make the original owner commit some 'mistakes' in front of the ministers.
Seemingly insignificant mistakes, once accumulated, can breed resentment in people.
The original owner did not travel often, but each time the assassins learned of her whereabouts accurately based on Yu Zhu's leaks.
Fortunately, the royal guards and bodyguards were very capable, otherwise the original owner would have been dead long ago.
We can keep Yu Zhu around for now, lest Ling Shuangxue plant someone else around us.
Spies can also be used against them.
Yu Zhu walked over with a bowl of soup and said softly, "Your Majesty, your injuries are too severe and your body has not fully recovered. Would you like some ginseng soup to nourish yourself?"
Fu Sang glanced at him and said, "Just put it there."
Yu Zhu was delighted. She placed the ginseng soup on the table and said humbly, "Your Majesty, this servant will serve you your meal."
"Just leave it there."
A glint flashed in Yu Zhu's eyes as she said, "Your Majesty, this ginseng soup needs to be eaten while it's hot..."
Fu Sang kicked him away.
Yu Zhu collapsed to the ground with a thud, feeling a sharp pain in her abdomen.
Yu Zhu curled up on the ground, cold sweat beading on her forehead, her eyes filled with hurt.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?"
The Empress's mood has been unpredictable lately; perhaps she has just returned from the brink of death, as her temper has become much more volatile.
Fu Sang snorted coldly, his exquisite eyebrows and eyes carrying a phoenix-like majesty, and said, "When I dine is not for you to decide."
Yu Zhu scrambled to her feet, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, saying, "This servant has spoken out of turn; please spare my life, Your Majesty."
A female official entered from outside, and upon seeing Yuzhu, a flash of displeasure crossed her eyes.
Fu Sang coldly said, "Take him away and give him twenty lashes."
The punishment of twenty strokes of the cane would be unbearable for most men in a matriarchal society, who are considered "delicate" and would likely have to stay in bed for several days.
Yu Zhu wept bitterly and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, this servant knows his mistake, please forgive this servant..."
Fu Sang glanced at him and said, "Aren't you going to drag him away?"
The female official quickly ordered the guards to drag Yuzhu away and beat her with a board.
The next day.
Just as Yu Zhu was beginning to suspect that the Empress had discovered his true identity, she received a high-quality ointment from the Empress.
Yu Zhu lay in the carriage, holding the plaster, a warm feeling welling up in her heart.
The Empress must have been upset about the assassin, which is why she punished him so cruelly.
The carriage sped towards the capital of Shuiyun Kingdom.
It was the season when flowers were in full bloom in Kyoto. The Imperial Garden was filled with all kinds of beautiful flowers, and their fragrant aroma permeated the air.
Since the Empress left the capital for the Xuanji Kingdom, the male concubines who used to stay in the palace every day have all come out to play.
In matriarchal societies, all men are described as having delicate and feminine appearances, and their every move exudes a gentle, effeminate quality.
The young men gathered together, eating fruits and chatting.
One of them sighed, "The Empress will be returning to the capital soon, and our good days are coming to an end."
"I heard that the Empress was assassinated on her way back to Shuiyun Kingdom and was seriously injured, almost losing her life. I didn't expect her to pull through."
