Chapter 2018 Imperial Uncle, the World is Now in My Hands (7)
The boy's voice was clear and crisp, and upon closer listening, it even contained a hint of seduction.
But then he heard everyone kneel down, and he was nearly scared out of his wits.
I regret it now, I regret it so much.
They serve the Second Prince here. Although they don't receive many rewards, the job is easy and leisurely. The Second Prince doesn't scheme against others and never scolds or beats them. It's considered one of the best jobs in the palace.
Why did they accept the Crown Prince's money, and why didn't they cherish it?
Their foreheads were damp with cold sweat, and the palace servants were silent as if trembling with fear. Some of the bolder ones even handed over the Crown Prince's bribes while crying.
But they still couldn't escape the fate of having their wooden boxes opened, or being killed outright.
Xiao Yao originally thought that if all thirty people opened all thirty wooden boxes, it would be too late for her to open them.
But it turned out that all the people were dead, and there were still thirteen boxes left.
The system swallowed hard, then decisively chose to shrink into the blanket and remain silent.
The idea that adults have become gentler is all an illusion! An illusion!!!
The last eunuch was relatively lucky; he didn't get the fatal weapon, only a thin rope, but his left hand was still severed.
He wailed, finally reaching the door with great difficulty, but his steps faltered, and he collapsed—
It fell directly to the ground.
Si Jin's laughter faintly came from behind him, like the call of death, forcing him to get up quickly and run forward while screaming irrationally.
That's terrifying! That's terrifying!
"His Highness has gone mad—"
As soon as they stepped outside, the eunuch began shouting. Si Jin casually finished a sip of tea, her eyes crinkling as if she were anticipating something extremely interesting.
He put down his teacup and asked slowly, "Little one, there are still a lot of blind boxes left. Do you want to open them?"
The little tiger, its paws gripping the blanket, didn't even stick its head out, and mumbled in response: "No!"
Let whoever wants to take this apart do so; I absolutely won't touch it!
But... [My lord, since you were already prepared to wipe them all out, why let the last one escape?]
It's not that it's cruel, it's just... it doesn't fit my master's character of eliminating all traces of trouble.
As they were talking, Si Jin got up and ran to the warehouse, found a large barrel of fuel, and poured it evenly around the main hall.
Then, he picked up a broom and began to clean up the blood that had fallen on the threshold.
At such a young age, she was already withdrawn, and the cool spring breeze made her look even more frail and pitiful.
What he said sent chills down Xiao Yao's spine: Guess what?
"This..." The little tiger rubbed its paws awkwardly: "You're not going to go fishing again, are you?"
And judging from the tone, there's more than one fish.
After a moment's pause, hearing footsteps approaching, the little tiger finally mustered the courage to crawl out of the covers.
At a glance, he saw Shen Linyuan striding towards him.
Behind him followed the little eunuch who had just been released.
After the late emperor passed away, the regent was put in charge of the country. To put it more boldly, Shen Linyuan was equivalent to the current emperor.
He is the best person to handle this matter.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, save us!" The eunuch followed behind Shen Linyuan like a dog that had found its master, crying as he rushed into the room: "The Second Prince just inexplicably executed all the palace servants. His methods were extremely cruel. Your Highness, you must avenge us!"
He cried so bitterly that his voice changed tone, sounding as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Fortunately, he escaped and was saved. A petty person like the Second Prince is not fit to be emperor!
Finally, Shen Linyuan took two steps forward, placed his large hand on Si Jin's shoulder, lowered his eyes, and asked carefully, "Why did you kill him?"
Si Jin dropped the broom, and before she could speak, she picked up Shen Linyuan's sleeve, wiped her nose, and brazenly raised her head to ask a question.
"Do I need a reason to kill them?"
