Seeing that the tyrannical emperor had lost his mind and was determined to kill his son no matter what, Jia Renyi panicked and knelt down on the ground, begging for mercy.
"Your Majesty, I beg you, please take my son out of those ten men's cells first."
People tend to compromise; if other things don't work out, they can only lower their expectations.
But Qin Yu sneered and spoke nonchalantly.
"What are you thinking? These ten people are guilty of heinous crimes. They took advantage of my hunting trip to serve me poorly, causing me to fall off my horse. They must be severely punished and cannot be let off the hook!"
"However..."
Qin Yu chuckled wickedly and held up one finger.
"Ten thousand taels of silver. The lives of these lowly slaves are worthless. I will pardon their crimes for ten thousand taels of silver!"
Ten thousand taels of silver is not much for the Jia family, but this is for ten people, and ten thousand taels of silver!
Why didn't this tyrant just rob us directly?!
Even though he knew Qin Yu was blackmailing him, Jia Renyi had no choice but to force a smile and nod.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will go back and raise the money right away."
Just as Jia Renyi was about to turn and leave, Qin Yu spoke casually.
"Oh, right, there's something else I almost forgot to mention. Yin Dang and Wu Chi have been performing quite well lately, and the Prime Minister has repeatedly recommended them to me. I wonder if Lord Jia has any suggestions?"
What suggestion? Jia Renyi was stunned for a moment, then his anger flared up. He cursed Sima Lie in his heart for being shameless. His son was imprisoned because of him, and this bastard not only did not help him, but also wanted to take advantage of his son's misfortune to install his own people in power and seize power from his son.
Such exploitative and opportunistic tactics are truly despicable!
"I know these two have been working under Jia Zhengjin. I'd like to hear his opinion on whether this is appropriate. When you visit them in the prison, ask them for me. If they tell the truth, I'll give you a thousand taels of silver for a meeting!"
As Qin Yu spoke, he revealed a smug smile, which made Jia Renyi's back teeth itch with envy.
That damned Sima Lie, that bastard actually wants to kick me while I'm down!
What does this mean? Isn't this just a plan to promote a newcomer? When something goes wrong, their own son is just abandoned like this. It's utterly heartless!
Thinking of this, Jia Renyi became anxious and quickly waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, you mustn't! You mustn't! Yin Dang and Wu Chi are both of questionable character and are not fit for important positions. Moreover, they are both Sima Lie's men, and their real purpose is to spy on the Empress!"
These words immediately drew Qin Yu's glare, and he roared angrily.
"Bullshit! You have slandered the Prime Minister behind his back time and time again. Get out of here and go borrow some money! If you don't have any money, you old codger, you can bring me your head!"
With that, he waved his hand, ignoring Jia Renyi's struggles, and coldly snorted before turning his head away from him.
Only after Jia Renyi's voice gradually faded into the distance did Qin Yu snort coldly, stand up, and begin to tidy up.
Yu Zhu secretly memorized the conversation between the two, especially the fact that Jia Renyi dared to speak so ill of the Prime Minister behind his back. This matter must be spread to prevent it from ruining important matters in the future.
Seeing the farce come to an end, Qin Yu was too lazy to keep up the act, so he resumed his lazy demeanor and rubbed his lower back.
"Your Majesty, I'm going outside to get some water. I'll be back to serve you in a little while."
But Qin Yu waved his hand dismissively and said it didn't matter.
"No need. You should rest for a while. I need to go to the Empress's palace. I'm getting impatient waiting for these people after spending so much time with them."
As he spoke, Qin Yu hurriedly picked up a bunch of bottles and jars, as well as some strange flying chess set and a little yellow book that made one's body burn with desire, and headed towards the harem.
He looked just like a donkey eager to sow seeds.
Yu Zhu looked disdainful, but it was fine. The emperor was so incompetent and foolish that she could easily send the secret reports from the past few days out of the palace and let the Prime Minister know about them.
Arriving at the Empress's palace with practiced ease, Qin Yu gestured for all the maids to shut up. He then carefully reached behind the woman in the magnificent palace dress, and his wicked hand began to wander involuntarily over the delicate body in his arms.
The soft touch in front of her immediately confirmed to Qin Yu that the person in front of her was her younger sister, not her older sister!
Caught off guard by Qin Yu's sudden attack, Zhao Yan was incredibly shy. Her paintbrush fell onto the table, and she became extremely sensitive due to Qin Yu's masculine presence and the intense heat emanating from his body.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong...?"
Looking at Zhao Yan, who was like a frightened little white rabbit, Qin Yu could no longer contain himself. He thought he was going to meet a strong-willed older sister today, but he didn't expect to be surprised to find that it was the younger sister here!
With practiced ease, Qin Yu pushed Zhao Yan to the ground and began to grope her.
"Your sister left you in the palace again? What happened this time?"
Knowing she shouldn't tell this tyrannical emperor everything, Zhao Yan trembled as she felt the hot touch on her waist and the large hand roaming around her. She stammered out what she knew.
"My sister went to see Father's confidant, ah..."
"These days, Father has been trapped by the Prime Minister, who is doing bad things behind his back, ah..."
"My sister said that many things have become more difficult to do these days..."
Faced with Qin Yu's fierce offensive, Zhao Yan quickly gave in, collapsing into Qin Yu's arms like a fish with its bones removed.
The Zhao sisters were truly a case of one taking charge of the home and the other of the outside world. The elder sister was strong-willed, domineering, aloof, and proud, with the demeanor of a powerful woman in later generations. The younger sister, on the other hand, was the complete opposite, possessing the gentleness of a lady from a prominent family. This kind of tender and gentle woman is the most captivating to men.
Qin Yu couldn't restrain himself and wanted to make love right away, but Zhao Yan'en stopped him.
"Your Majesty, I am menstruating today and cannot have intercourse with you."
You've already taken your pants off halfway, now come with me to do this.
Qin Yu was immediately disappointed upon hearing this, and looked utterly helpless.
"Then let's try another method. I've already taken off my dragon robe, you can't just show me this."
Upon seeing Qin Yu's enormous exposed member, Zhao Yan immediately covered her eyes and mouth, leaning back as if she had seen a demon, trembling with fear.
Seeing how Zhao Yan, this young girl, had been tormented beyond recognition by him since her first experience with sex, and how she was now trembling all over at the mere sight of him, Qin Yu felt a pang of pity for her.
That's enough, that's enough.
