Shen Yunxiao killed someone in front of Lu Jinyue. The person was a young scholar who was angrily accusing Shen Yunxiao of various crimes.
Lu Jinyue was so frightened that her face turned pale and she could hardly hold the heater in her hands.
These past few days, I was so immersed in the infatuated and half-dead feeling of conquering Shen Yunxiao that I almost forgot that he was an absolute lunatic.
"What? Are you scared now?" Shen Yunxiao smiled contemptuously as he looked at her pale face.
"This has just begun." Without waiting for Lu Jinyue to say anything, he shot three more arrows, and three more scholars fell down.
Lu Jinyue's hand trembled, and the heater fell to the ground, making a muffled sound when it landed on the white blanket.
The remaining scholars were pale and panic-stricken, like trapped animals, facing the sharp swords and spears of the guards.
They originally thought that as the future of the Great Rui Dynasty, these guards, including the emperor, would not really do anything to them. Scholars and literati are of high moral character, and what they despise most are people with poor moral character.
They didn't expect that three or four classmates had died in just one stick of incense. How could they not be afraid?
"No, don't kill me! Please don't kill me!" Lu Jinyue's eyes were red. She wondered if Shen Yunxiao would be spared if she didn't have the bow and arrow?
Thinking of this, she snatched the longbow from Shen Yunxiao's hand, bent it hard, and the longbow broke.
Shen Yunxiao looked at the longbow that was broken into two sections and fell silent.
Hua Wuyang was even more shocked. He was beyond words.
This weak woman in front of me actually broke the bow so easily?
Is this reasonable?
"You beg me for these people who have nothing to do with you? Hmm?" Shen Yunxiao lifted her chin and slowly moved closer. "Lu Jinyue, you destroyed my bow. Are you tired of living? Hmm?"
The last word ended with an upward sound, and Lu Jinyue felt a sharp pain in her jaw, so much so that her eyes were filled with tears.
Hua Wuyang came back to her senses and turned her head to look elsewhere. Shen Yunxiao always did things his own way. Would he care about the feelings of a woman he had snatched away?
The scene when Chen Yunxiao brought Lu Jinyue back that day was so grand that Hua Wuyang was really curious, so she asked around.
Unexpectedly, he actually found out that this woman was the wife of Ye Zhixing, the eldest son of the Ye family!
This couple is famous for their love, and Ye Zhixing is actually willing to give up.
Yes, a woman in exchange for the lives of her entire family was worth it. However, they probably never imagined that even though they handed over Lu Jinyue, they would still be silenced.
Lu Jinyue finally realized what was going on and broke out in a cold sweat!
She must have been out of her mind to do such a thing.
"I, I'm scared! Your Majesty, please stop! How about I compensate you with a bow?" Lu Jinyue pinched the hem of her skirt guiltily, her beautiful eyes shining.
“You said it.” Shen Yunxiao responded and leaned back on the cushion.
His goal has been achieved, there is no need to stay here any longer.
"Wuyang, the rest is up to you." Shen Yunxiao pulled over the fox fur coat that had been pulled askew by her and said to Hua Wuyang beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Hua Wuyang came back to his senses from his memories and responded with a fist salute.
The emperor's carriage passed through the long street and circled by the river. When passing by the gate of Lu Mansion, Lu Jinyue saw that the Lu family, which used to be bustling with people, had long been deserted. Even the plaque was covered with cobwebs.
Before Shen Yunxiao ascended the throne, Lu's father asked to be transferred out of the capital and became an official in a remote area.
At first, Lu Jinyue couldn't understand why her father suddenly made this decision?
Is it that the prosperity of the capital is not good, or is it that this smooth life is not good? They actually resolutely gave up everything in the capital.
When Lu's father went to the Ye family to find her, he asked her if she wanted to divorce Ye Zhixing and leave the capital with him.
What did she say then?
She said, "Father, now that I'm married to Ye Zhixing, I'm a member of the Ye family. Besides, Zhixing and I are in perfect harmony, and we love each other dearly. We're even planning to have a child. Father, don't you want to see your grandson born?"
When Mr. Lu left the Ye family, he looked depressed and hunched over. He looked at her deeply before leaving.
She didn't understand it at first, but now that she thinks about it, there are hints everywhere.
As Lu Jinyue watched, she felt a wave of sadness in her heart, and a deep regret swept over her, as if it was going to drown her completely.
"Why, do you regret it?" Shen Yunxiao showed a hint of sarcasm when he saw her like this, "There is no regret medicine in this world. You are my woman now, don't think about other men."
Shen Yunxiao pinched her chin and made her face him. Seeing the tears in her eyes, she blinked lightly, and the tears welled up and flowed down her cheeks onto his fingertips.
Suddenly, her tears were so hot that they burned his fingertips.
After a long time, he let her go and sat back down.
The capital city was bustling with peddlers and vendors on the streets hawking their wares enthusiastically. A cold wind blew, and everyone held their collars tightly. As New Year's Eve approached, many families had already begun to dress up, but as the late emperor had passed away not long ago, no one dared to dress too excessively.
The students from that place had already been imprisoned in the prison, leaving behind a few bloodstains on the spot.
Shen Yunxiao's carriage finally entered the palace gate, and Lu Jinyue's tears had almost dried up.
She didn't ask what would happen to those scholars, for she was afraid of getting an unacceptable answer.
As a woman in the 21st century, she found it difficult to come to terms with such cruel and violent scenes.
In this ancient time when imperial power was supreme, she felt infinite sorrow in her heart.
"Host, please don't be passive and lazy." The voice of the reproductive system sounded coldly.
"Do you want to listen to what you are saying? How can this be considered passive resistance? Shen Yunxiao is such a bastard! He is too scary!" Lu Jinyue gritted her teeth.
The fertility system stopped talking. It felt that Lu Jinyue's temper had worsened since coming to this small world, and it was almost unable to cope with it.
After returning to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, Lu Jinyue didn't care about Shen Yunxiao's expression. She bowed perfunctorily and curled up in bed.
"Your Majesty, General Hua requests an audience." Outside the door, Eunuch Ma spoke respectfully.
Eunuch Ma is an old man in the Palace of Heavenly Purity. He served the previous emperor and then the new emperor, so he is considered to be two generations old.
"Okay, got it." Shen Yunxiao glanced in the direction of the bedroom and turned to leave.
Lu Jinyue just lay on the bed dejectedly, with the quilt covering her head, her mind full of the scene of those scholars being shot by Shen Yunxiao's arrow.
And he killed people without batting an eyelid.
What do you think of human life?
Lu Jinyue's whole body was cold, her mind full of the scene of Shen Yunxiao shooting the four scholars to death. The bright red color scared her.
"Ms. Lu, Aunt Xu asked if we can intensify our practice tonight. After all, New Year's Eve is only three days away, so time is a bit tight." Baozhen asked cautiously when she saw that she was in a bad mood.
