Upon seeing this, Sima Jing immediately revealed a smug sneer on her face. She then picked up the brush on the table and quickly wrote two imperial edicts: one to depose the empress and the other to promote her to a higher position!
"Your Majesty... the imperial edict has been drafted. Please write your approval in red ink. Once it's done, I will serve you well. My skills are no less than the Empress's."
As the demonic voices rang out, Qin Yu did not hesitate for a moment. He stiffly picked up the vermilion brush and was about to write on the imperial edict.
But just then!
suddenly!
A clear, crisp sound of a copper bell suddenly rang out from outside the door, followed immediately by a hoarse, shrill eunuch's voice.
"Your Majesty! The new red pills I've prepared for you are ready. They're even more potent than the previous ones. Please come to the alchemy room to test them!"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
This sound, as powerful as a resounding bell, pierced into Qin Yu's ears!
The next second, he suddenly trembled! His mind snapped back to reality, and he stared in astonishment at the two imperial edicts placed on the table. Everything that had just happened with Sima Jing felt like a dream!
"Anfu! The Empress and the Emperor are enjoying tea. You may leave and do not disturb us!"
Sima Jing's pretty face turned cold, and she immediately reprimanded An Fu outside the door, secretly filled with resentment!
Her soul-capturing technique is most vulnerable to being disturbed by a third party making loud noises; if she is startled, all her efforts will be wasted!
"Your Majesty... please ignore this fawning old servant, let me continue to serve you, hmm... Your Majesty, come here..."
Sima Jing's stunningly beautiful face became even more alluring. She simply ripped off her long skirt, revealing most of her snow-white breasts. With a seductive smile, she hooked her arm around Qin Yu's neck and pressed herself against him.
As long as the tyrant gets to have her, she can have him completely under her thumb!
Qin Yu remained incredibly calm, though he had no idea what had just happened!
But now, his intuition told him to get away from this dangerous woman as soon as possible!
Thinking of this, Qin Yu immediately pretended to be evil and reached out his big hand to roughly grab the white rabbit!
"ah!"
Sima Jing screamed in pain and recoiled as if electrocuted, her brows furrowed.
"Hehe! Anfu! Where is your red pill? Quick! Take me there!"
Qin Yu, beaming with excitement, craned his neck and shouted outside, not forgetting to excitedly yell at Sima Jing, "My beloved concubine! After I've tried the red pill, I'll come back and pamper you properly, hehe, otherwise I'd be truly wasting your talent!"
With that, Qin Yu grinned wickedly and grabbed Sima Jing's soft breasts a few more times before running off excitedly, urging An Fu to lead the way.
"Your Majesty! Don't go!"
Sima Jing hurriedly covered her chest with her gauze dress and rushed to the door, but the tyrant had already followed Anfu and disappeared in a hurry at the palace gate.
Damn it!
Sima Jing's delicate face instantly contorted with icy anger, her fists clenched tightly!
This tyrant is obsessed with wine and women; he can't do anything without the red pill for a day. He's more excited to hear about the medicine than to see his own father!
All her efforts were in vain. Sima Jingqi gritted her teeth, a cold and ruthless glint appearing in her beautiful eyes!
Zhao Lan!
I've saved your life today!
But I will never let you go!
...
On the other side, Anfu led Qin Yu left and right until they arrived at a secluded rockery in the back garden, where there was no one in sight.
Qin Yu immediately stopped in his tracks, somewhat wary. Having crossed over into this palace fraught with danger, he had to be careful at every turn!
"Anfu! You scoundrel! I've been with you for a quarter of an hour, where is Hongwan?!"
Qin Yu roared furiously, and An Fu in front of him immediately trembled, turned around, and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty! This old servant deserves to die! This old servant lied to you! There was no red pill at all!"
"You scoundrel! How dare you deceive the emperor!"
Qin Yu roared and turned to leave without hesitation, but the next second, An Fu chased after him and knelt down again, his old face filled with tears of anxiety!
"Your Majesty! Please don't go back! That woman is a witch! You can't go back!"
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu's expression immediately changed! He stared at An Fu in astonishment. Could it be that this old eunuch was deliberately making up an excuse to save him?
Seeing his astonishment, Anfu thought Qin Yu didn't believe him, and immediately said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty! I have served you since you were three years old! I have never had any disloyalty towards you!"
"Sima Jing has been in the palace for only a year, yet she has already bewitched you. Sima Lie has also used her to gain favor and rise rapidly in rank. Even the Duke of Zhang Tang was framed and brought down by her!"
"Moreover, every time you have sex with her, you sleep for seven or eight hours, your face pale, your body weak, and your mind sluggish. At first, I thought it was because you were not moderate and were harming your health, but after careful and secret investigation, I discovered that it was all the work of that witch's soul-capturing sorcery!"
"The Soul-Capturing Technique is an evil art practiced by women under the Northern Darkness Sect to control men's minds. When combined with a unique secret medicine and applied to a woman's body, it releases a strange fragrance after interacting with her sweat, bewitching men! Long-term exposure to this evil art will not only cause physical exhaustion but also mental derangement and unpredictable mood swings!"
Anfu looked terrified and said excitedly.
Qin Yu was shocked, recalling everything that had just happened with Sima Jing.
So that's how it is! I was actually controlled by that demoness!
Recalling the emperor's haggard and withered face, and his various violent and abnormal behaviors, Qin Yu felt a chill run down his spine.
If Anfu hadn't woken him up today, he probably would have followed in the footsteps of the real body!
and!
Once the imperial edict deposing the empress and promoting her is issued, the delicate balance of power he has maintained in the court will be completely shattered!
This emperor is doomed!
Thinking of this, Qin Yu's gaze toward An Fu gradually warmed.
Just then, Anfu's terrified voice rang out again, dropping an even bigger bombshell!
"Moreover, this old servant dares to assert that this Sima Jing is definitely not Sima Lie's daughter! Rather, she is a demoness from the Northern Darkness Sect!"
"This old servant has searched through ancient Taoist texts and royal collections. After the late emperor sent a large army to eradicate the Beiming Sect, its right protector took a group of young girls and fled."
"And that Right Protector was given a new name by his sect leader, Qiu Beiming, because he developed the Soul-Seizing Evil Technique!"
"Now it seems that Sima Lie must have colluded with the remnants of the Northern Darkness Evil Sect! They disguised this woman as Sima Lie's daughter, sent her into the harem, and used her to control the emperor!"
Listening to Anfu's investigation and deductions, Qin Yu felt as if a series of bolts from the blue had struck him!
His intuition told him so.
What Anfu said is true!
Qin Yu felt a surge of warmth in his heart and reached out to help An Fu up so he could confront him!
But just as he reached out his hand, he suddenly froze!
The situation is so unpredictable now, who can guarantee that Anfu wasn't deliberately sent to test him!
Right now, he can't afford to make a single mistake, and he can't trust anyone!
Thinking of this, he suddenly snorted coldly, turned the hand that was stretched out in front of Anfu, and pushed him to the ground!
"That's utter nonsense!"
"Get out of my way! Don't stop me!"
After saying this, Qin Yu waved his dragon robe and stormed off in a huff, leaving An Fu lying on the ground, tears streaming down his face.
