Yun Mu Nian stood almost frozen, and within moments, her palms were already sweating profusely.
“Jingjing, this incense was indeed sent by me, but it’s definitely safe and sound.”
"Didn't the imperial physician examine her already?"
He tried his best to explain, afraid that Si Jin wouldn't believe him.
Because, no matter how powerful a minister is, he is not the emperor.
As the saying goes, "Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger," he must not let Si Jin become suspicious of him.
"Imperial physicians? You mean those useless people you bribed?"
The young man lazily rose from the dragon throne and reached out to take the brocade box from Eunuch Lin's hand.
He opened it, walked to Yun Munian's side, and smiled faintly:
"My dear minister, extend your hand."
Yun Munian was confused. Seeing Si Jin's smile, he assumed that the young emperor's attitude towards him had softened slightly, so he reached out his hand as instructed.
Si Jin poured a little bit of spice from the brocade box into his hand:
"Your Excellency, you may wish to take a sniff. There are many medicinal herbs in this that can cause a person to lose their sexual ability."
Fortunately, I treasured the things you gave me before and never used them.
As Si Jin spoke, she turned and walked to the table, reached out and grasped the incense burner handle, gently lifted the still-burning incense burner, and returned to Yun Mu Nian's side, her dimples deep, and continued:
“Stretch out the other hand as well.”
Yun Munian extended her left hand.
Si Jin opened the incense burner lid and poured the scalding hot incense ash directly onto his hand.
Her delicate, well-defined hands instantly became red and swollen.
The smoldering incense ash burned the skin, making a sizzling sound.
The sound, falling into Si Jin's ears, was like the most melodious note in the world:
"My dear minister, smell it again. This is the true scent of ambergris."
Xiao Yao, who was originally quite interested in watching the play:
【！！！】
It immediately stretched out its two paws and covered its eyes completely.
Huh~
Roasting human flesh raw, how terrifying!
Seeing smoke rising from her palm, Yun Munian winced in pain and instinctively tried to shake off the incense ash.
However, Si Jin gently grasped her left hand.
The boy's palm was warm, and he smiled as he took Yun Munian's left hand in his.
"Hey, hey, hey, my dear minister, don't throw it away! Thunder and rain are all imperial favors. Didn't you want to please me? Then you should cherish what I give you."
Yun Mu Nian was in so much pain that she was covered in cold sweat, and her originally rosy lips instantly lost all color.
His whole body was trembling uncontrollably as he tried to endure the pain.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Alright, that concludes our conversation for today. Your Excellency, please return."
Seeing that the incense ash in Yun Munian's hand had gone cold, Si Jin put her back.
Then, he casually handed the incense burner to Eunuch Lin and instructed him:
"I will refuse anything he sends me in the future."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
With a heavy heart, Eunuch Lin tidied up the incense burner and hurriedly followed into the bedroom to serve.
… …
A clear night, with a bright moon and few stars.
The solemn and majestic imperial palace was brightly lit by candlelight.
Si Jin sat upright before the dragon desk, writing down a list of officials in the court who had already pledged allegiance to Yun Mu Nian.
After confirming with Xiaoyao that everything was correct, he put down his brush and breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yao jumped out of her mind, curiously walked to the ink, dipped her chubby paw in it, and left a small footprint shaped like a plum blossom on the paper in front of Si Jin.
The exquisite cat's eye sparkled:
Ah~ So cute (〃 )
Si Jin picked up the paper, glanced at it, and joked:
"It's definitely more sophisticated than stick figures."
【Right? Right?~】Xiao Yao jumped onto Si Jin, overjoyed:
[The guy used 8 points to upgrade, and immediately reached the intermediate system level!]
"That intermediate system," Si Jin asked. "Did you notice anything different about Yun Mu Nian?"
[I can tell! I can tell!]
Xiao Yao said: "[Through his memories, I learned that this guy was reborn. In his previous life, he helped Yu Jingyuan kill the original owner, and then he was killed by Yu Jingyuan, so...]"
So in this life, I want to experience a "husband-chasing crematorium"?
Si Jin snorted coldly, her beautiful peach blossom eyes flickering slightly as she stared at the list of officials in her hand with amusement.
A moment later, an excited smile appeared on his lips:
He really thinks everyone who gets reborn is a protagonist?
When I attend court tomorrow, I will give him a big surprise.
Xiao Yao couldn't help but gasp.
My instinct was that this surprise would be deadly.
