Oh shit!
This guy came under the guise of reporting, but actually he was trying to find out about Zhao Yan's death!
How hateful, absolutely hateful!
However, Qin Yu saw through the clues but did not directly confront him in anger. Instead, his eyes lit up and a plan came to mind!
Since you old dog have delivered yourself to my doorstep, don't blame me for being impolite.
A terrifying aura of violence emanated from Qin Yu once again.
Qin Yu pretended to be impatient and slapped him hard across the face!
Snap!
Wang Zhen was immediately slapped to the ground, completely stunned, covering half his face and saying aggrievedly.
"Your Majesty! This servant was merely giving a routine report and has not committed any wrongdoing!"
The eunuchs and palace maids around them trembled inwardly. Was this tyrannical emperor really willing to disregard everything for a woman?
"report?"
Qin Yu widened his eyes, took Zhao Yan's small hand, and perfectly portrayed the image of a lustful and foolish emperor.
"Are you fucking scared? My beauty is about to die, and you're still bothering me with these trivial matters!"
"Just now, after Abbot Liu performed his healing ritual, the Empress was already showing signs of recovery, but you've made her faint again."
"Damn it, I bet you're the one who cast this spell! Guards, execute him!"
Hearing this, Wang Zhen felt as if he had been struck by lightning! He was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
He immediately knelt down on the spot, kowtowing and begging for forgiveness in awe and fear, "This servant is guilty! This servant was unaware! Heaven and earth can see this servant's loyalty, and I would never harm His Majesty or the Empress! I beg Your Majesty to investigate!"
I even picked a decent excuse to come and spy on people, so how did I suddenly end up taking such a big blame?
Besides, it was the duty of this tyrannical emperor to supervise all officials! Isn't routine reporting perfectly normal?
Knock knock knock!
Wang Zhen kowtowed repeatedly, as if pounding garlic, fearing that the emperor would really chop him up—that would be such a terrible injustice!
Qin Yu's violent and murderous behavior was so extreme that even Liu Caiqing couldn't bear to watch. She frowned and tried to persuade him.
"The Empress's illness is indeed very important, but it should not interfere with state affairs. If Your Majesty is truly unable to handle this, then please dismiss Eunuch Wang!"
How come this woman has absolutely no understanding with me?
Qin Yu pretended not to hear and, ignoring the attempts to stop him, continued to press Wang Zhen with questions.
"You dog, try to argue like that? Guards! Bring me a knife and bleed him!"
"Master Liu has already said that the blood donated by the person who cast the spell will turn black if placed in a magical artifact!"
"If I find out that you really did it, I will have your entire family executed by being cut into a thousand pieces!"
Seeing that the emperor completely disregarded her advice, Liu Caiqing frowned and was quite displeased. At the same time, she was puzzled by his decision and felt rather confused.
Did the emperor not understand his request?
How could Wang Zhen possibly be the one who used witchcraft? Isn't that absurd?
She turned her head and stared straight at Qin Yu, wanting to find an answer from him.
At the same time, Qin Yu was also looking at himself. Their eyes met, and the other man's gaze immediately intertwined with his own. He was clearly hinting at something.
Liu Caiqing instantly understood, and now she had no more doubts, and even cooperated.
However, she was clearly not as skilled at setting up a facade as Qin Yu, and her voice was somewhat dull.
"Well, Your Majesty is absolutely right. If you wish to prove your innocence, please use your blood!"
"Fine!" Wang Zhen gritted his teeth, quite unwilling to accept defeat. "If I can demonstrate my loyalty, Your Majesty, please proceed!"
It's just a little blood, right? It's a tiny wound, what's there to be afraid of?
He even deliberately rolled up his sleeves to appear very generous.
"Hehe..." An Fu chuckled sinisterly, "It would be even better if Eunuch Wang could cooperate!"
After saying that, she grabbed his arm and began to bleed him without saying a word.
"Hey! Wait a minute! Is it really necessary to use such a big knife for bloodletting?"
Wang Zhen was so scared when he saw the gleaming broadsword that he almost collapsed.
Why is it completely different from what I imagined? Shouldn't it just be a small dagger to make a cut and draw some blood, and that's it?
"Master Wang, you are mistaken. If less blood is used, it won't show up. This old servant saw that you were very loyal to the Emperor just now. You wouldn't want to be wronged by any discrepancy, would you?"
Wang Zhen was speechless, his lips twitching with frustration!
He could only watch helplessly as Anfu pulled his wrist and used the machete to cut open a wound the size of a bowl, causing him to grimace in pain and almost faint.
One bowl of fresh blood wasn't enough, so they made a second bowl!
After drinking two large bowls of blood, Wang Zhen's lips turned white, his face became pale, and his vision even began to blur.
Seeing Anfu's sinister smile, he immediately burst into a tirade of curses.
"Your Majesty! This old dog is clearly settling a personal score under the guise of official business. Why does a blood test require so much blood? He's trying to kill this servant!"
"oh!"
Qin Yu simply responded with a faint sound, completely ignoring the guy.
Why?
Because they're in cahoots!
Seeing Wang Zhen being tricked by An Fu, Qin Yu felt secretly pleased, even thinking that he wasn't ruthless enough and hadn't bled enough!
He took the deep-set ritual implement and poured two large bowls of blood into it, but it still wasn't full.
“Your Majesty,” Anfu turned his head, “this old servant is afraid that there might not be enough blood.”
"Then give me some more!"
"No!"
Without giving Wang Zhen a chance to speak, An Fu pressed down on him again and swung his knife to collect a large bowl of blood.
At this point, the ritual implements were finally filled to the brim.
After a moment of calm, the magical artifact did not turn black. Wang Zhen finally felt as if he had been granted a pardon. Unable to hold on to his dazed head, he collapsed peacefully.
Qin Yu feigned regret and clicked his tongue, saying, "Alas, this Eunuch Wang isn't in very good health. He's so young, yet he can't handle just a little bit of blood."
Wang Zhen almost vomited blood.
That little bit of blood? You try letting Anfu release some!
After a chaotic commotion, Qin Yu finally revealed his true purpose, feigning fury.
"Xuejian! Do you see how we're investigating the person who used the spell? Investigate in the same way!"
"Anyone who has come into contact with the Empress, whoever they may be, must have their blood used to make a blood sample. Hmph! Don't let me catch them!"
Turning his head, he looked at Zi Yan, "You are the Empress's personal maid, the most suspicious, so let's start with you!"
"Ah?" Zi Yan looked at the machete, her heart filled with fear.
But Anfu put away the broadsword, took out a thin needle, and said, "It's alright! Just one shot, very quick!"
Seeing this, Wang Zhen was so angry he almost jumped up from the ground.
"Old dog! You have a needle, don't you? Why are you drawing so much blood from our family?"
"Your Majesty! He's just settling a personal score! You must do justice for this servant!"
Of course, his grievances and questions received no response. Qin Yu turned his head away and pretended not to hear.
Anfu swiftly pricked Ziyan's fingertip, drawing a symbolic amount of blood, thus ending this melodramatic scene.
