Chapter 6 The Strategist (End)
Imperial Preceptor's Residence
Bai Yan gently patted Luo Xi's head, "Junior sister, you're really ruthless, taking down three people in one go."
"I understand Prince Ning and the Crown Prince, but what did Prince Chen do to offend you?"
Luo Xi: "Anyway, they just messed with me."
Because he was blocking her way.
If she had known Bai Yan was so powerful, why would she have become someone else's strategist?
Now, she aspires to that position.
Luo Xi rested her chin on her hand, looking at the person sitting next to her, "Senior brother, I really didn't expect you to have so many people..."
He has people in the Ning Prince's Mansion, the Crown Prince's Mansion, and the Chen Prince's Mansion, and they trust him.
Most importantly, those people poisoned the plants cleanly and efficiently, leaving no trace, and even the emperor's men couldn't find them.
Bai Yan said arrogantly, "Of course, your senior brother hasn't been wasting his time these past few years."
Luo Xi's eyes sparkled. "Senior brother, are there any of your people in there?"
Bai Yan knew which place she was referring to. "Yes, of course."
Luo Xi's eyes flickered, and she leaned closer to him, whispering, "Then how about we do *that*...?"
Bai Yan: "...Junior sister, you think too highly of me. I just want to be an idle national advisor."
He didn't want to be emperor; it was too much work.
Moreover, they must remain in this imperial city indefinitely.
No, he won't be able to handle it.
He is fundamentally a lover of freedom.
Luo Xi: "........."
She pointed to herself and said, "If you won't do it, I will."
"I want to be it, let me be it..."
Bai Yan was startled. "Junior sister, are you serious?"
Luo Xi: "......Of course."
“I am far more capable than them.”
Bai Yan looked at Luo Xi, who was from the same school as him but six years younger than him, and said, "That's true. Your abilities are indeed much stronger than theirs."
"Okay, you can be the one if you want."
"Let me make this clear first! Don't come crying to me if you get tired later."
Luo Xi: "...I never cry."
Bai Yan glanced at her and said indifferently, "Oh."
Not long after, the Emperor fell ill. It was probably because he couldn't accept the recent deaths of his princes one after another, and thus, he fell ill...
When the emperor fell ill, his paranoia worsened, and his murderous intent intensified.
The first to be affected was the Marquis of Dingbei, because he had been inquiring about the Emperor's health and who was most likely to ascend to the throne.
And so, the Marquis of Dingbei's entire family was wiped out...
Ten days later, the emperor passed away.
The other princes also perished...
These were naturally Luo Xi's doing. Some time ago, Bai Yan gave her all the people he had in the palace.
Many people in the court are Bai Yan's men; whoever Bai Yan supports, they will naturally support.
And so, Luo Xi successfully ascended the throne and became the Empress.
As for Bai Yan, he remains the Imperial Advisor.
Because this throne was seized, it was not a glorious thing.
However, Luo Xi didn't care about the infamy; all she wanted was to become emperor.
If they curse, she'll kill a few more to make an example of them. Once enough people die, they won't dare to do it again.
Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Bai Yan never left the capital because he was really worried about his junior sister. He was afraid that if he left, she would go wild.
Therefore, he could only stay by her side as her imperial advisor. (The End)
