"Isn't this a bad idea..." Dugu Lianbai looked at Shen Yi, his heart pounding.
“Your Majesty, look, she's the one who provoked me.” Rong Ling tossed the folding fan to Yu Hanzhi and followed Shen Yi out.
Dugu Qianchen couldn't stop him.
The two of them had just stepped out when Rong Ling followed right behind them. Dugu Lianbai looked at Yu Hanzhi and Dugu Qianchen and asked, "Should we go out and take a look?"
The three of them had just stepped out the door when they heard a scream.
Shen Yi looked down at Rong Ling, who had been thrown to the ground.
"You attacked me from behind!" Rong Ling said angrily.
"You can't keep up with my speed," he said the truth. Rong Ling's martial arts skills were high, but how could they compare to the cheat code that Mo Xi had given him?
"Why don't you all give it a try?" Shen Yi added.
Dugu Qianchen gave Dugu Lianbai a look, and Dugu Lianbai nodded: "I'll do it."
He couldn't even see Shen Yi's figure clearly, and within fifteen moves, Dugu Lianbai was already exhausted.
"I lost." Dugu Lianbai never expected to be defeated by a woman, no, she let him off the hook and didn't lay a hand on him!
"May I ask where Your Highness studied under?" Yu Hanzhi helped Rong Ling up from the ground and stuffed the folding fan back into his hands.
"Self-taught"
These four words shocked the four people on the spot.
"How confident is the Imperial Concubine?" Yu Hanzhi asked again.
"No one can stop me from doing what I want to do." His meaning was clear: if he wanted to win, he would definitely win.
"Confidence is a good thing, but—"
Dugu Lianbai was cut off by Dugu Qianchen before he could finish speaking.
"What do you want if you win?" Dugu Qianchen asked.
Now everyone looked at Shen Yi, who slowly said, "I've said it before, I can get what I want myself."
"And the Empress's position?" Dugu Qianchen deliberately tested him. Shen Yi, though inwardly disdainful, said aloud, "The Emperor's position is quite good."
Dugu Qianchen smiled knowingly: "Understood."
Dugu Qianchen, Dugu Lianbai, and Rong Ling all expected this, but Yu Hanzhi was stunned and looked at Shen Yi, wondering what he meant by his words.
As the Left Chancellor, he would surely analyze the implied meaning in those words. He didn't address the Emperor as "Your Majesty" but as "Emperor," which is a good position. Which position? Is it the Empress's position or the throne?
He quickly dismissed the idea, after all, she was just a slightly more capable woman, an appendage of the harem, whose purpose was naturally to become the empress.
Therefore, Yu Hanzhi did not think about it any further.
"There's one more thing. Since everyone knows my usefulness, let's skip the title of Imperial Concubine. I'm perfectly capable of being called a General."
Dugu Qianchen suddenly burst into laughter: "If you were a man, you would definitely be a major worry for me."
Shen Yi also revealed a slight smile, but his eyes remained deep and unfathomable.
Dugu Qianchen, you're right, he really is your biggest worry!
The eunuch entered, bowed to the guests, and announced, "Her Majesty the Empress has arrived."
"What is it?" Dugu Qianchen asked coldly. He was still angry about what happened last night. Although he knew Ning Jiu'er was right, he was the emperor and he couldn't let others talk about him, especially a woman!
"Your Majesty, the Empress has come to see the Consort because the Imperial Concubine is here," the eunuch said, glancing at Dugu Qianchen and noticing that his expression was not good.
"Brother, it seems that your sister-in-law didn't come to see you?" Dugu Lianbai said with a smile, covering his mouth.
Dugu Qianchen: "..."
"Since Her Majesty the Empress has summoned me, I shall take my leave." He never referred to himself as "this concubine" in front of them; it was too disgusting.
