The outstretched fingers trembled uncontrollably.
But he couldn't utter a single word.
Upon hearing this, Su Yan also went to help.
As a result, someone grabbed his arm and dragged him into the hall.
With a bang, the door slammed shut.
Only Su Yan and Situ Xiu remained in the room.
Situ Xiu looked him up and down.
Speaking
"Where are the prayer beads I gave you?"
"I didn't bring it with me; it's inside the house."
"What? You look down on that stuff?"
"That thing is too fragile; I'm afraid I'll break it."
She explained earnestly.
After listening, Situ Xiu reached out and touched Su Yan's neck.
"From now on, if I ever see you not wearing it, then you won't be wearing your head either."
Su Yan felt suffocated.
This person always brings up her head.
This is a threat.
But what else can we do?
She lowered her head and spoke softly.
"yes"
Situ Xiu approached step by step.
"You're speaking so softly, are you unwilling?"
Su Yan didn't speak, but looked up to see if he was asking sincerely or not.
Situ Xiu smiled harmlessly.
"Speak freely, I will listen to your opinion."
Then, Su Yan obediently said...
"It's a bit heavy, and it's also heavy to carry in my purse, which is a bit of a nuisance."
The next second after he finished speaking, Situ Xiu grabbed her chin.
He had a half-smile on his face.
"This is the first time I've ever seen someone so honest."
Su Yan didn't understand what he meant.
His eyelids lowered, and the smile on his face vanished.
“You must carry it with you every day for twelve hours. If I see you not carrying it for even a moment, I will consider it a failure to protect your master.”
After he finished speaking, he saw that Su Yan still had the same expression.
He leaned closer and whispered in her ear...
"Do you know what crime is committed for failing to protect one's master?"
Su Yan shook her head
"have no idea"
"Confiscate their property, exterminate their entire family, behead them."
Su Yan
"······"
Was this guy just thinking about how to chop off her head?
He couldn't help but laugh when he saw how dejected she looked for that instant.
A smile played on his lips as he spoke softly.
"You're already upset? Listen to the whole thing before you get upset."
"What?"
"You assaulted a high-ranking official of the imperial court. How should this be settled?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yan's eyes widened in denial.
"I don't."
"profound?"
I really didn't.
"Why is Prime Minister Zhao lying on the ground?"
"He collapsed on his own."
"For no reason at all, how could this be?"
"I accidentally fell down."
"How exactly did you accidentally..."
"He grabbed me, and I pulled my hand away. I used too much force, and he fell to the ground."
"This isn't considered a beating?"
Su Yan
"...That's slander."
Situ Xiu leaned against the door with one hand, looking down at her.
"What I say is the truth."
Then, Su Yan became even more listless.
She should hurry back to be the emperor.
Once she became emperor, she was the most powerful woman.
Situ Xiu looked at her listless appearance.
He reached out, picked up a strand of her hair, played with it in his hand, and twirled it around his fingers.
"Guard Song need not be discouraged."
Su Yan raised her head.
He slowly
"After all, there is still a way to salvage the situation."
"What method?"
Situ Xiu moved closer to her, extremely close.
whisper
"If you please me, I will not pursue the matter further."
Su Yan was puzzled
"Then what would make you happy?"
"That's your problem."
He said slowly.
He had barely finished speaking.
Just as he was about to stop and get up, letting the young guard continue crushing the walnuts.
As a result, he watched as the young guard raised his hand and slowly hugged him.
His body stiffened.
After hugging for a while, Su Yan looked up and asked seriously.
Are you happy now?
