A dark red, fitted wedding robe added a touch of blush to the boy's fair complexion.
His flamboyant peach blossom eyes flickered slightly.
She appears gentle and alluring.
Si Jin smelled slightly of alcohol. As soon as she entered the room, she dismissed all the servants, skipping all the formalities.
He directly lifted Yun Muyan's veil and purposefully picked up the two glasses of wine on the table.
He handed one of the cups to Yun Muyan.
A humble smile, deep affection:
"Come, Empress, drink this cup with me."
Yun Muyan didn't expect him to suddenly bring up the wedding process here.
All the mental preparation I had made beforehand crumbled instantly.
She reluctantly took the glass, and the next moment, her eyes welled up with tears; she was terrified.
Yun Muyan's hand holding the wine glass was visibly trembling.
Before long, he had spilled half a cup of wine.
Si Jin seemed to be testing her intentionally:
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? Are you nervous?"
"Then how about we skip the toasting and just drink our own drinks?"
As he spoke, he was about to put the wine in his mouth.
Finally, Yun Muyan couldn't stand it anymore.
He suddenly took two steps forward.
Splash—
She knocked the wine glass out of Si Jin's hand.
Then, she suddenly knelt down, tears streaming down her face like a broken dam.
"Your Majesty, do not drink it! It's poisoned! Do not drink it!"
My brother asked me to poison His Majesty, but I feel that His Majesty is a wise ruler and should not lose his life because of my brother and me.
It was wrong of my brother to try to harm His Majesty, but he is already gone.
I, your humble servant, will pay for his crimes. I beg Your Majesty to execute me.
A hint of interest flashed in Si Jin's eyes. He glanced down at the woman whose face was streaked with tears and said calmly:
"It's really rare that someone like your brother could raise you to be so sensible."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked to the bookshelf inside the hall.
A folded exam paper was taken out from under a decorative porcelain vase.
Open it and deliver it to Yun Muyan.
"Is this the scholar you admire?"
This was taken from the old official who was supervising the examinations at Wenyuan Pavilion yesterday.
Based on this person's talent, he could at least obtain the position of a local governor.
Si Jin placed the exam paper here with the intention of testing him.
Upon hearing the name Yun Muyan, he sent people to find out all her details.
Upon learning that this person had no bad record and was even quite popular among the daughters of officials, they decided to give her a chance.
If Yun Muyan really dares to hurt him, he will definitely not show any mercy.
But if Yun Muyan repents and turns over a new leaf, he will change her name and marry her to this scholar.
Yun Muyan nodded blankly at first, then suddenly realized something and nervously grabbed Si Jin's hem:
"Your Majesty! It is our Yun family's business to make a mistake! You may confiscate our property, but he is innocent."
"Please, Your Majesty, spare my life! Please, Your Majesty, have mercy!"
"Okay." Si Jin responded simply, then struck Yun Muyan on the back of the neck with a palm, knocking her unconscious.
Then, he slowly squatted down and used his divine power to extract something from her body.
Deep within her consciousness, Xiao Yao was originally looking for candy.
After much effort, she finally found a grape-flavored lollipop from a pile of strawberry lollipops, but before she could even put it in her mouth, she saw Si Jin's actions.
It quickly jumped out of its sea of consciousness and stretched out its two short little paws to try and pry open his wicked hand:
"My lord! Even if this plane allows killing, surely it doesn't warrant the destruction of souls with divine power?"
That's so brutal!
Si Jin frowned, then tossed it against the wall.
He said with dissatisfaction:
Who said I was going to destroy her soul?
I'm extracting her memories of Yun Mu Nian to make her forget everything about the capital.
Find a different way to eliminate future troubles for yourself.
The cat, a fluid-like creature, slid down the wall, dizzy and disoriented, until it reached into the corner and stretched out its paw to steady its wobbly head.
I see!
Xiao Yao was delirious, muttering: "[No one died? This isn't like you~]"
"Is that so?" Si Jin replied indifferently.
Turning her gaze, Wenrou stared intently at the little white cat in the corner.
Xiao Yao: [...]
