Chapter 265 The Regent's Beloved 9
When several secret guards saw that their master was injured and bleeding after just one encounter, they became furious and rushed forward with swords in hand.
They were aggressive and murderous, and all wanted to show off in front of their wise and powerful master, but Su Li didn't give them any chance at all.
Su Li's body was as fast as lightning. He raised his leg and waved his hand. In the blink of an eye, several secret guards fell to the ground!
The battle was over before it even began.
Ye Shang was shocked and angry when he saw that the secret guard he had carefully trained died in Su Li's hands without even lasting a single round.
If he had previously thought that he had underestimated his enemy and was caught off guard by Su Li, he now clearly realized that the person in front of him was not simple.
All those sent before died quietly, and he suspected that Cui had sent an expert to protect the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now it seems that both he and Wan'er underestimated her!
Judging from her skills just now, it was clear that this woman had been hiding her abilities in the past.
If he could use someone like this...
Ye Shang raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and gave Su Li a smile that he thought was evil and crazy: "Haha, interesting, your name is Su Li, right? This king will remember you!"
Su Li was disgusted by his dead look, which said, "Woman, you have successfully caught my attention."
What the hell?
"Oh, who do you think you are to remember me?"
The smile on Ye Shang's face froze, and surprise flashed across his eyes. He didn't expect that there would be a woman in the world besides Wan'er who would be indifferent to his face!
Seeing Su Li's disdain for him, he sneered: "Heh, do you know who I am?!"
This woman is indeed vicious. Her attacks are ruthless and every move is fatal. How can she be like a rich lady raised in seclusion?
Su Li rolled his eyes and said, "You almost told me your ID number, how could I not know who you are?"
Ye Shang looked up and down at Su Li with an eagle-like gaze, his eyes full of inquiry.
The more he looked, the more frightened he became. The fierce aura of this woman was even stronger than his. She could not be ignored just by standing there quietly!
Why hadn't he noticed before that there were two unique women in the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Ye Shang's eyes became deep. Even though Wan'er always told him that everyone was equal and she was not in awe of him, he could still sense a hint of deliberate flattery from her occasionally!
If Wan'er is cold-blooded and fearless, like a ruthless killer, then the woman in front of him is indifferent and arrogant, like an emperor looking down on everyone!
Su Li didn't give him a chance to think. He clamped his hands so that he couldn't move, and then he started beating him with his fists.
The pain brought Ye Shang back to his senses quickly. The chaotic thoughts in his mind disappeared without a trace in an instant. He was left trembling with pain all over his body, wailing and threatening non-stop!
Su Li thought he was too noisy, so he stuffed a rag he had torn from the man in black into his mouth.
Now, he couldn't even wail a few times to relieve the pain. He could only stare with resentful eyes and make whimpering sounds.
Su Li stopped only after he beat the man so hard that he was breathing in more than out.
The original owner only said that he wanted Su Wan'er, this lonely ghost, to die a miserable death, but never said that he would take revenge on other people, and Su Li didn't want to cause trouble for the male protagonist!
But he came to her house again and again to seek death, and she couldn't refuse him!
After all, she was so considerate, how could she bear not to fulfill his wish? !
The dead bodies in the yard were thrown into Su Wan'er's yard as usual. What about Ye Shang, who looked like a dead pig?
Su Li also found a good place for him, the largest brothel in the capital - the back door of Chunfeng Tower!
It was already midnight and there was no one on other streets, but this street was still bustling with people.
Especially the Chunfeng Tower opened by Su Wan'er, which was bustling with people coming and going.
Su Li released his spiritual sense to check the situation in the brothel.
It was even more lively inside. In the lobby, a sexy woman wearing a mask and revealing clothes was dancing on a pole, causing cheers from many men who had not returned home all night.
The rooms upstairs were filled with lewd music, and the guests were entertained by handsome young men and pretty and charming girls.
No wonder Su Wan'er's brothel was able to quickly gain a foothold in the capital and make a fortune every day!
This is truly achieving: meeting people’s urgent needs and providing what people need!
Su Li kicked Ye Shang, who was lying on the ground, hard. The unconscious man no longer looked high and mighty, looking down on everyone.
The man at this moment looked somewhat delicate and beautiful, very lovable. Anyone who saw him would be so fascinated by this carved face that they would be unable to walk.
Ye Shang is known as the most handsome man in the capital, and has a face that makes the noble ladies in the capital unable to walk.
Su Li's eyes moved, and he suddenly revealed an evil smile.
She took out a pill suitable for Chuntian from the space and stuffed it into his mouth roughly. The pill melted in his mouth.
After a while, Ye Shang's face turned red, and even in a coma he frowned uncomfortably.
Su Li was so kind as to give him a five-hour rejuvenation talisman to prevent him from being recognized by acquaintances, and then he waved his sleeves and went to the palace.
Imperial Palace.
Yexiao was diligently reading memorials. Although he was only in his thirties, he already had many white hairs on his temples, and looked like he was in his forties!
The old eunuch waiting beside him offered a cup of tea and reminded him distressedly: "Your Majesty, it's getting late!"
Ye Xiao didn't even look up, picked up the tea and took a sip: "What time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's midnight!"
Ye Xiao put down the memorial in his hand, pinched his brows and said tiredly: "It's already so late?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you still have to take care of your health. You must not overwork yourself!"
The old eunuch was sent to serve Yexiao as soon as he was born. He watched Yexiao grow up and has always been loyal to him. He felt very distressed when he saw Yexiao staying up until midnight every day to rest!
Ye Xiao's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and he sighed: "I know this, but in the court..."
When Ye Xiao mentioned this, he couldn't help but think of the scene in the morning court this morning where Ye Shang had the upper hand again and the ministers supported Ye Shang.
As the king of a country, he should have the final say, but because he had an extremely powerful regent, he was controlled in every aspect of the court.
What made him most aggrieved was that this so-called regent was ten years younger than him.
Other dynasties established regents to assist the new emperor because the new emperor was young, but he did so only because his father was unwilling to give him the throne.
Ye Shang was the child of the late emperor's favorite concubine. Because of his love for the late emperor, Ye Shang was also the late emperor's favorite son.
Back then, if it weren't for the fact that Ye Shang's mother was of humble origin, and he was the eldest and the legitimate son, much older than Ye Shang, he would have been named the crown prince before Ye Shang was born, and would have already established a firm foothold in the court.
His father would definitely deprive him of his position as crown prince and let Ye Shang succeed him.
