Chapter 7 This Emperor is a Bit Sick
Six months later,
Lanzhou Weichang
Si Yu and the ministers went hunting in the mountains.
Luo Xi didn't go because she wasn't interested in hunting.
An hour later, Si Yu returned from hunting.
When Luo Xi saw Si Yu return, she smiled, stood up, and walked towards him.
Si Yu dismounted, a smile playing on his lips, and strode toward Luo Xi.
Just then, Princess Chang'an's horse "went out of control" and charged towards Luo Xi.
"Ahhh! Get out of the way! Get out of the way..."
Si Yu's pupils contracted slightly, and he quickly ran towards Luo Xi, shouting, "Empress!"
Luo Xi saw the horse charging straight at her, so she quickly dodged to the side and ran away.
Seeing this, Si Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He ran over, took Luo Xi's hand, and led her to a safe place.
Half an hour later,
Si Yu stared coldly at the horse, whose limbs had been severed and which was already dead. Then, his gaze fell on the horse's owner.
His face was as cold as ice, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura. He stared at Princess Chang'an and said with certainty, "You did this on purpose?"
The horse wasn't drugged, and Princess Chang'an is an excellent horsewoman; she couldn't possibly be unable to tame her horse. Therefore, she must have done it on purpose...
Princess Chang'an did it on purpose, but she dared not admit it. "Cousin, Chang'an didn't do it on purpose."
"I have no grudge against the Empress, why would I harm her?"
Luo Xi walked out, "Because you like your cousin, but your cousin likes me, so naturally you felt uncomfortable. Then, in a moment of impulse, you did what you just did."
As she dodged away, I saw a flicker of regret in her eyes. And there was affection in her gaze as she looked at Si Yu.
Princess Chang'an: !!!
She clenched her fists, forcing herself to remain calm, and said, "Your Majesty, do you have any evidence? Don't make things up."
Si Yu: "Someone, bring two horses over and sprinkle some powder on her to drive them mad."
He stared at Princess Chang'an and said, word by word, "Use their own methods against them."
Princess Chang'an: !!!
She stared wide-eyed at Si Yu in disbelief.
To use their own methods against them?
She didn't drug Luo Xi, and her horse wasn't crazy. How could he be so cruel to her?
Before her mother passed away, she asked him to take good care of her, and he agreed. Now, he's actually going to hurt her for his empress?
They have no evidence to prove that she did it intentionally. How could he convict her based solely on Luo Xi's words? That's not fair.
Just as she was about to speak, a guard froze her body and sealed her mouth.
Princess Chang'an: !!!
Finally, Princess Chang'an died, trampled to death by horses...
An hour later,
Si Yu stared at the two women in black kneeling before him. "Eleventh, Thirteenth, I remember I instructed you to stay by the Empress's side at all times to protect her."
"What were you doing just now?"
Just now, if the Empress hadn't dodged in time, she would have...
He couldn't bear the consequences of losing the empress.
Eleven: "Master, this subordinate...this subordinate...failed his duty, he didn't react in time."
They said in unison, "Master, we know we were wrong. Please give us another chance. We will never make the same mistake again."
Si Yu: !!!
Chance?
If he gives them a chance, what if they repeat the mistake next time?
He would never again entrust the Empress's safety to them.
Furthermore, Si Yu would not tell them anything about this being a one-time exception.
Although they have some abilities, protecting the Queen is not something that can be done without them...
