The guards were filled with dismay, their faces flushed with embarrassment. They had already cursed Qin Yu and all the previous emperors in their hearts; not only had they been brutally beaten by Qin Yu, but they also had to stand there and listen to his tantrums.
It was a double torment, both physically and mentally.
Meanwhile, inside the room.
Despite being stripped naked after her crushing defeat, Zhao Yan was still completely exposed to Qin Yu.
She twisted her body, begging for mercy in a pitiful manner.
"Your Majesty, please, spare me!"
Seeing that the time was ripe, Qin Yu chuckled wickedly and pounced, easily invading the territory.
Then came a sound that made one blush and their heart race.
The various ambiguous sounds mingled together, making the Imperial Guards outside feel their blood boil and wishing they could immediately find a woman to relieve their pent-up desires.
But Qin Yu had not yet given the order, and they dared not leave on their own, so they could only endure it bitterly.
Meanwhile, Jia Zhengjin, who had been beaten unconscious by Anfu, finally woke up.
Recalling what he had seen today, he felt indignant, but dared not openly oppose that tyrannical ruler, so he could only give up.
The Emperor's recent favoritism towards that wicked Empress must be due to the Flying Chess game we saw today.
If he could present this item to the Prime Minister, he would surely gain the Prime Minister's favor.
At that time, all the ministers in the court will have to show him respect!
Thinking this, he felt a surge of pride and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
But this very action involved the skin on his face.
The pain on his face made him gasp.
But this matter was urgent. He had to deliver the news to the Prime Minister before the news of the flying chess game spread beyond the palace, otherwise the plan would fall through.
Thinking of this, he disregarded the injuries on his face and quickly got up to draw everything he had seen on paper.
After finishing the last stroke, he quickly dropped the brush and hurriedly headed towards the Prime Minister's residence with a stack of papers.
The Prime Minister's Residence.
Sima Lie tapped his fingers nervously on the table, his face gloomy, and he frowned as he looked at Qiu Beiming beside him.
"The Emperor has been favoring the Empress for many days now, so why is there still no news of Consort Jing? Could something have gone wrong in the palace?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Beiming cupped his hands in a gesture of reassurance.
"Your Excellency need not worry. Consort Jing has mastered all the arts of my Northern Darkness Sect, and her strength should not be underestimated. No matter what abilities that Demon Queen possesses, she is no match for Consort Jing!"
Hearing this, Sima Lie felt a little relieved and sighed.
I hope it's as you say!
Just then, someone knocked on the gate of the Prime Minister's residence.
"I have urgent business to discuss with the Prime Minister!"
Hearing the noise, the butler opened the door a crack and peered out.
Seeing that it was Jia Zhengjin with a pig's head, he glanced at him disdainfully, then said a few words and closed the door again.
"I'll go report to the Prime Minister. Just wait!"
Looking at the tightly closed gates of the mansion, Jia Zhengjin was so angry that his teeth itched.
It's bad enough that he's been mistreated in the palace, but now even a servant dares to give him attitude!
Once he gains power, the first thing he'll do is teach this arrogant old man a lesson!
The steward walked unhurriedly to the main hall, cupped his hands, and reported.
"Your Excellency, General Jia requests an audience!"
Jia Zhengjin?
At this critical juncture, why isn't he guarding the palace properly? What is he doing at the Prime Minister's residence?
Sima Lie frowned in displeasure, but did not refuse.
"Let him in!"
Before long, Jia Zhengjin, whose head was swollen like a pig's head, strode in.
Upon seeing Sima Lie, he instinctively gave him a fawning smile.
But his face was swollen from the incident, and his smile looked worse than a cry.
"Your Excellency, while patrolling the palace today, I inadvertently discovered the wicked empress's secret!"
"Oh? What secret?"
Sima Lie's eyes lit up with interest, and he raised an eyebrow at him.
Seeing that he had a chance to make a contribution, Jia Zhengjin quickly presented the paper in his hand with both hands and hummed softly.
"This is the secret behind how that wicked empress managed to keep the emperor company every night!"
Sima Lie gave a look to the person next to him.
The guards quickly stepped forward and took the stack of papers.
I thought it was some kind of secret, but it's just some erotic pictures.
Sima Lie glanced at it casually and then dropped it.
After seeing these things, his contempt grew even stronger.
A foolish ruler is a foolish ruler. A woman can easily bewitch him with a little trick. How pathetic!
Sima Lie picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea without savoring its flavor, and then gave a disdainful snort.
"It's nothing more than using one's looks to please others. What kind of woman hasn't the Emperor seen? He'll get tired of her in just a few days!"
Seeing that he didn't take the matter seriously at all, Jia Zhengjin became a little anxious.
"Your Excellency, take a closer look. This is different from ordinary erotic pictures. I heard that this is a game invented by that wicked empress, called something like Flying Chess. The Emperor treasures Flying Chess like a precious gem and can't put it down."
"Today, I was merely conducting a routine search of the palace when I accidentally knocked over the Ludo chess set that the wicked empress had given to the emperor. He then beat me into this state. In my opinion, the emperor must have been bewitched by that vile woman and lost his mind!"
As he spoke, Jia Zhengjin's anger surged uncontrollably.
The pain on my face intensified considerably.
Upon hearing this, both Sima Lie and Qiu Beiming were startled.
This woman's methods are incredibly powerful?
Qiu Beiming had a vague sense of unease.
He disregarded social hierarchy and quickly picked up the papers on the table, carefully flipping through them.
He was shocked when he saw it, his eyes widening in surprise, and alarm bells went off in his head.
Any one of these Flying Chess pieces is far more lewd and shameless than the bedroom secrets of their Northern Darkness Sect.
No wonder that vixen was able to seduce the emperor for several nights in a row.
"This woman is not to be underestimated!"
Qiu Beiming's face turned ashen, and he shook his head repeatedly.
Seeing that even the usually calm and collected Qiu Beiming was shocked, Sima Lie couldn't help but take a closer look as well.
He had never seen many of the things in the picture in his entire life.
He couldn't help but tremble, his old face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth as he spoke.
"That vixen queen, she actually came up with such a despicable trick, she's lewd to the core!"
Zhao Lan probably couldn't have imagined that, in just a few days since she left the palace, her reputation had been so badly ruined by Qin Yu.
Upon hearing this, Sima Lie frowned, his old face clouded with worry.
He was already feeling uneasy.
This incident instilled in him a strong sense of crisis.
He clenched his fist and looked at Jia Zhengjin with a gloomy face.
"No, we can't let this woman monopolize the Emperor's favor. We must contact Consort Jing as soon as possible and have her do everything in her power to regain control of that tyrannical emperor. You're on duty in the palace, so this matter is entrusted to you!"
Jia Zhengjin was overjoyed; these were the words he had been waiting for.
As long as Sima Lie needs him, he will definitely reap the rewards once he accomplishes this task.
Thinking this, Jia Zhengjin quickly cupped his hands and gave him his assurance.
"Your Excellency, rest assured, I will certainly handle this matter properly."
