The number one licker, the loyal dog of the heroine, is called Zhou Siheng. He is the second son of the eldest branch of the Zhou family, one of the four major families.
Zhou Siheng single-handedly broke through the limitations of the Southern Liang dynasty's selection process and became the first person in Southern Liang history to pass the imperial examination with six first-place finishes. He would have been a renowned figure in any dynasty. If he hadn't gone rogue, he would have left his name in history, admired by generations to come.
But it was this amazingly talented and beautiful demon who was rescued by the heroine Lin Wanru and fell deeply in love with her. For Lin Wanru, he was willing to become her behind-the-scenes military advisor, clearing all obstacles for her and supporting her to become the queen of Southern Liang.
Such a devoted lickspittle is rare in history. In Xu Jing's opinion, this elegant and graceful champion was likely blinded by the heroine's halo, losing his judgment. Otherwise, why would he resort to all his family's efforts to help a stranger ascend to power? He's truly a complete idiot.
Being a moron is one thing, but the worst thing is being a tool in the relationship between the hero and heroine. Whenever the heroine quarrels with the hero, Zhou Siheng appears in time to protect Lin Wanru from the wind and rain, and when Lin Wanru is in a good mood, he is willing to play the supporting role and silently protect her.
If the relationship between the three people could stay like this, everyone would be happy, but King Chen is not a pushover. How could he tolerate being cuckolded?
After unifying the country, King Chen slowly cleaned up Zhou Siheng's family, gradually dismantling his power. Finally, he found a trumped-up charge and confiscated all of Zhou Siheng's property and exterminated his entire clan.
As a saint, Lin Wanru naturally couldn't bear to let Zhou Siheng die, so she came up with a way to replace Zhou Siheng with a death row inmate in prison to save his life.
Without the protection of the Zhou family, Zhou Siheng is simply unable to compete with the male protagonist's aura. Subconsciously, Lin Wanru no longer has eyes for Zhou Siheng, and saving him is just an act of chastity.
But Lin Wanru never expected that if you cut the grass without leaving any roots, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
After losing the Zhou family, Zhou Siheng completely turned evil. He used his years of experience in the imperial court to slowly lay out his plan. In ten years, he bloodbathed the entire royal family and turned the Southern Liang Dynasty into a truly chaotic world.
Lin Wanru's biological son also died at the hands of Zhou Siheng, and the male and female protagonists were killed along with him.
After killing the male and female protagonists, Zhou Siheng avenged his great hatred and lost the desire to live, so he committed suicide.
Xu Jing: "...Is this the good script you told me about?"
021: "Who would complain about having too much money if it's just for making money? Believe that you can turn decay into magic, and work hard to save the male supporting role, Amen."
"Go to hell." Xu Jing was both angry and amused. This mission was truly a difficult one. Not only did he have to save the supporting male character, but he also had to change the entire court situation. He really couldn't pull off this scenario without some brainpower.
If Zhou Siheng had not been blinded by Lin Wanru's halo as the heroine, his original life trajectory would have led him to become the most powerful person in the world.
If you want to win the heart of a smart male supporting character, you must either be stronger than him or show weakness to your enemy.
Compared to Mu Qiang, Xu Jing prefers to take advantage of the original owner's stupid nature and pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.
The first thing he had to do was to gain the emperor's trust and get him to pass the throne to him. But if he wanted the emperor to pass the throne to him, he had to have more bargaining chips in his hand.
Xu Jing had always been a man who could read people's expressions. Now, he could use the Qianqiu Banquet as an opportunity to gain the emperor's favor.
Xu Jing borrowed the pharmacy of the Imperial Hospital to make a few beauty pills and would send them to the Queen later.
The young eunuch served tremblingly, fearing that Xu Jing would kill him if he was not careful.
After Xu Jing finished handling everything, he saw the young eunuch waiting nearby. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he warned him. "Remember, I came to the Imperial Hospital today to prepare a gift for my mother. If you say even one wrong word, I will chop off your head and kick it like a ball. Do you understand?"
"Slave...slave knows, slave will definitely not say anything nonsense."
King Xie Yunzhang of Chu brought a group of palace maids to the cold palace to find King Qin to go to the Qianqiu Banquet according to Caihe's instructions. It would be more accurate to say that they came to find King Qin because they had learned the news in advance and were ready to catch the adulterer.
"Search for me, everyone. Don't miss any clues."
"Wait a minute. Isn't this move by Sixth Brother too much of a fuss?" Prince Zhuang Xie Yunxiu stepped forward and stopped Xie Yunzhang from searching the palace.
Xie Yunzhang expressed his helplessness. "Ninth brother, I know you and Fifth Brother share a deep bond and want to help him. I feel the same way, but it's hard to disobey the Emperor's orders. If I delay Mother's Thousand Autumn Banquet, will you be able to bear the wrath of Father?"
Xie Yunzhang's words and deeds showed that he had no intention of letting Xie Yunqi go. It was because he was the one who always attracted attention and acted aggressively. Xie Yunzhang was more than happy to have the opportunity to discipline him.
Xie Yunxiu wasn't buying it. "Sixth Brother, don't flatter me. Everyone knows you've always been at odds with Fifth Brother, and you've been secretly trying to target him."
"Then, according to Ninth Brother, what should we do about this matter?"
Xie Yunxiu said, "In my opinion, there's no need to make a big fuss about the search. Fifth Brother just fell asleep, and he hasn't committed any crime. There's no need to mobilize so many people. If Sixth Brother doesn't mind, how about coming in with me?"
"Just do as Ninth Brother asks. Surround the courtyard and don't let a single mosquito out. Got it?"
Xie Yunxiu said with a forced smile, "Sixth brother, please."
"Ninth brother, please."
The two entered the main hall one after the other and opened the door, but the expected scene did not happen. There was no one inside, even the quilt was neatly laid out, as if nothing had happened.
"How is it possible?" Xie Yunzhang had received information that Lin Qingru, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and King Qin were doing something inhumane here. Could it be that the information was wrong?
"What does Sixth Brother want to see?" Xie Yunxiu asked knowingly, which made Xie Yunzhang embarrassed. He shouted at the door: "Caihe, get in here!"
Cai He was already feeling uneasy, and Xie Yunzhang's yell almost made her lose her soul. She trembled like a sieve and moved slowly into the main hall.
"What's going on?"
Cai He was startled and knelt on the ground and said, "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Xie Yunzhang picked him up and threw him to the bed. "Look for yourself, where is he?"
Caihe was so badly knocked unconscious that she didn't even have time to cry. Just as she was about to explain, she caught a glimpse of Lin Qingru tied up under the bed.
In an instant, Caihe understood everything.
The reason why King Zhuang was so angry was because he didn't catch the person.
"Prince Zhuang, look." Cai He pointed under the bed and said, "Why is the young lady here?"
Lin Qingru?
Xie Yunzhang suppressed his anger and clapped his hands. "Come here, capture the person under the bed for me."
