Chapter 320 The Skinny Horse from Yangzhou Sent to Disrupt the Country (17)
Shi Yanqing, who was in a warm environment, didn't notice such a cold and murderous look at all. Instead, Qingwu was lost in thought in a daze.
She curled her lips and chuckled, and her charming smile made Shi Yanqing even more excited.
Shi Yanqing was thinking that there was no better moment than this.
Such happiness cannot be achieved even by ascending to the throne of God.
It is something that only Qingwu can bring to him.
It is also his elegance.
Be patient a little longer...
Shi Yanqing brought Qingwu a chronic poison that even Shi Wenjin could not detect.
Although Shi Wenjin has drug resistance, the chronic poison gradually penetrates and slowly erodes his vitality.
Although the process may be slower, the end result is the same.
He wanted to kill Shi Wenjin bit by bit without anyone noticing.
Then hold the beauty in your arms as quickly as possible.
Qingwu is his.
Shi Yanqing had never understood so clearly what he wanted.
......
Early morning. Gilded Palace.
When the bronze bell for the morning court rang, the atmosphere in the gilded hall became a little strange.
Shi Wenjin sat upright on the coiled dragon throne, his bright yellow dragon robe rising and falling gently with his breathing.
However, unlike in the past, the corners of his eyes that always held a warm smile were now slightly drooping, revealing a barely perceptible gloom.
His fingertips pinched the hinges of the memorial, and his knuckles turned bluish-white from the force.
When the third minister came forward with the memorial, he didn't even wait for the other party to speak. He raised his hand and waved it lightly, saying coldly: "We will discuss this matter later."
Although the sound was very soft, it was like a crack on the ice, making everyone in the hall feel a chill down their spines.
Shi Wenjin has always been known for his gentleness and was an extremely gentle emperor.
But today, his mood was obviously low, and he even rejected the advice of several ministers.
In contrast, the regent, who is usually expressionless and ruthless, is in a particularly good mood today.
The purple jade belt with python pattern shone coldly in the morning light. He leaned against the gilded pillar with his arms folded, and for the first time ever, he nodded to the Minister of Rites who was handing over the memorial.
There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, as if it was just a polite smile, but it was enough to make the jade sceptre in the hands of the usually calm Minister of Rites almost slip.
You know, this iron-blooded regent usually doesn't even bother to lift his eyelids, let alone respond to other people's greetings.
It's flattering and terrifying.
"Your Majesty, do you seem to be worried today?" The low whisper of the Minister of Revenue was prolonged by the echo in the hall, like a stone thrown into a deep pool.
Shi Wenjin's fingertips stroked the nine-dragon pattern on the imperial desk, and her eyes suddenly swept over the purple figure on the steps. The moment her eyelashes trembled slightly, the sinking water incense wafting from the copper crane incense burner in the corner of the hall was mixed with a barely perceptible chill.
Shi Yanqing slowly raised his head, his fingers casually fiddling with the gilded patterns on his cuffs, but a hint of obvious provocation flashed across his eyes.
Seeing this, some quick-witted ministers wondered in their hearts: Is His Majesty and the Regent in conflict again?
But the Regent and Your Majesty have been at odds for a long time.
Before this, no matter how outrageous the incident was, His Majesty had never shown his displeasure so obviously on his face.
How strange.
In the court, no one dared to look up openly, for fear of being burned by the emperor's wrath.
Otherwise, you will find that the eye contact between the two brothers is more terrifying than the flash of swords.
The invisible flames flickered, making the bricks and stones of the gilded temple hot.
After leaving court, Shi Wenjin went straight to Weiyang Palace.
This was the first time the two of them met in public after three days.
When he stepped into the Weiyang Palace and saw the beauty lying lazily on the bed, gazing at him tenderly and weakly, his eyes were filled with longing.
The anger in Shi Wenjin's heart instantly turned into a helpless sigh.
Shi Wenjin thought, Qingwu can’t be blamed.
Qingwu had no ability to resist, just like he had so many things he had to do.
If that’s the case, what reason does he have to blame Qingwu?
In the final analysis, all the faults should be blamed on that beast Shi Yanqing!
He could assign some of the emperor's secret guards to Qingwu, so that Qingwu would have more power to do what she wanted.
And can protect her.
The emperor's secret guards are only loyal to the emperor.
yesterday......
Shi Wenjin rushed back after receiving news from the secret guards.
He had long noticed that something was amiss with recent events, with a strange feeling. They were just as difficult as before, but with an extra inexplicable restraint.
It was as if an invisible hand was controlling everything in secret.
It was indeed Shi Yanqing's work.
What a shameless thing.
A thousand thoughts went around in circles in his mind, but Shi Wenjin said nothing.
As usual, she is smiling and gentle as spring.
"Awu."
Shi Wenjin called Qingwu's name softly, and slowly took off his outer robe.
His movements were gentle and slow, as if he was afraid of waking up the beauty in his arms.
Qingwu was only wearing thin clothes, and her snow-white skin looked particularly delicate under the candlelight.
Shi Wenjin held her tightly in his arms with full of affection. On her snowy skin was the red plum blossom that he could not help but leave behind...the symbol of control.
But this time it doesn't belong to him.
Shi Wenjin's expression twisted for a moment.
How sensitive is Qingwu?
Naturally, he noticed Shi Wenjin's unusual emotions, which he couldn't completely conceal even though he tried his best.
She laughed in her heart. All this was part of her plan.
Since she dared to do it, she was naturally confident that she could control the overall situation and bear the corresponding consequences.
Not only that, she also wants to cleverly use this to gain more benefits for herself.
Let everything...
Be her helper.
Disadvantages can also become her advantages.
This is something that no man can tolerate, let alone an emperor.
But the Shi Dynasty was different.
The people here have the "crazy" gene in their bones.
They may have foreseen such things long ago and have an extraordinary ability to accept them.
Moreover, this is a place full of competition, and everyone is doing whatever it takes to gain power and status.
Therefore, such events will only stimulate their stronger desire to win - which is more beneficial to her.
She is a delicate beauty and a chess piece, what can she do?
Qingwu's eyes flashed, and she spoke in a voice that was honey-like and slightly hoarse.
She lowered her head seemingly in sorrow, but her soft body gradually moved closer to Shi Wenjin.
Qingwu slowly lowered her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings.
Her fingertips gently hooked the untied jade belt around Shi Wenjin's waist, and the cool touch made the emperor's heart skip a beat.
