"Guard this place, I'll treat the patients. If there's anyone who doesn't have eyes, just throw this over and blow him to pieces. I'll see if there are any loyal souls left in the world." Shang Ruoyi took out two grenades and threw them out.
She brought three with her today and left one for a rainy day.
"Yes, sir!"
The queen looked at the black grenade with a sinking heart. She had never seen this thing before, but she had heard of it. It had a beam of light that shot up into the sky and was extremely powerful.
But after all, she had only heard about it and had never seen its power, so she was a little skeptical.
"You don't have to exaggerate here. If it's really as you said, why didn't you take it out just now?"
"Besides you and your men, there were also ladies from various palaces in this courtyard just now. I don't want to hurt innocent people. Otherwise, do you think you can still be jumping around here?"
She spoke so bluntly that the queen's face darkened again.
“If you’re not convinced, you can try.” Shang Ruoyi sneered, “I don’t kill you now because I don’t want my father and the City Prince’s Mansion to be charged with treason. However, your life is completely ruined.” She looked at the queen with cold eyes, “My mother, I will definitely settle accounts with you.” Although her mother was not killed by the queen herself, her mother’s physical failure must be related to the Tianyin Sect.
The Queen's eyes were slightly fierce. Shang Ruoyi turned and walked towards the main hall, but the Queen did not move.
"Bang!"
"Ah!" A sharp pain came from the calf.
Shang Ruoyi had her back to her, with the pitch-black gun pointed at her legs.
"I said, I'm not going to kill you now, not because I can't kill you." She said in a cold voice, "I want you to see with your own eyes the moment when the building you built with your own hands collapses."
As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared into the palace gate.
Shang Ruoyi came to the bedroom, but it was empty, without a single person.
She walked to the dragon couch and her eyes fell on the face of the Western Region Emperor. At this time, both sides of his cheeks had completely collapsed, and his face was full of death. Even the spiritual spring water could not prolong his life for a short time.
She took out a pill and put it into the Western Region Emperor.
The spiritual spring water slowly seeped into his body. Not long after, the Western Region Emperor opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him with turbid and confused eyes.
He could only see a blurry figure in front of him, and had no idea who it was.
"My beloved concubine?" The Western Region Emperor said in a dry voice: "Is it you, my beloved concubine?"
Shang Ruoyi was speechless. The Western Region Emperor sighed and whispered, "I know, it's not you."
"May the emperor be well and healthy." Shang Ruoyi said in a low voice.
"It's you." The Emperor of the Western Regions blinked and barely saw the outline of the figure in front of him. The corners of his lips twitched. Hail? These two words sounded extremely ironic at this moment: "Why are you here?"
"If it weren't for me, you would be dead now."
The Western Region Emperor paused and said, "It was you who saved me."
"You just said that you know I am not your Concubine Xiao. Why do you say that?"
"They all wish I would die immediately." He coughed a few times and said calmly, "Thank you for saving me. I will definitely reward you handsomely."
Shang Ruoyi smiled and shook her head when she heard this: "You don't have to thank me. I didn't save you. I just helped you prolong your life for two days. I did this to let you see clearly who is truly suitable to be the king."
The Western Region Emperor looked stunned, as if he could hardly believe that his life was about to come to an end.
After a while, he held back his breath and shouted in a deep voice: "I am the emperor! Long live the emperor!"
Shang Ruoyi sneered when she heard this: "You just said it to comfort yourself. What, your father is not the emperor? Did he live long?"
The Western Region Emperor looked at her and smiled: "You are very brave, little girl. I am still the emperor. Aren't you afraid that I will punish you if you say this?"
"You'd better save your energy. You can try. Who can you order around in the palace now? I'm afraid not even a maid will listen to you. The emperor is really pitiful for doing this to you." She pointed outside the door and said, "Now there are people standing, sitting, and lying outside, waiting for you to die so that they can divide up the Western Regions. Your queen wants her son to succeed to the throne immediately, and she is unwilling to wait even half a year. She poisoned you and wanted to kill you directly. You Your favorite concubine, Concubine Xiao Guifei, had already planned to elope with her lover when you fell ill. Her lover is the Heavenly Master you trust the most." Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "That Heavenly Master is not the one you believe in. He is the young master of the Tianyin Sect. He intends to use your Western Region to disrupt the whole world. I don't know what their ultimate goal is, but it is definitely not to let you ascend to the position of the true Nine Supremes."
She spoke a lot in a fluent manner, and with every word, the Western Region Emperor's face darkened.
After listening to the last part, he finally realized that the person he had trusted the most for a long time had been using him, calculating against him, and trying to take his kingdom and life, while he had always been suspicious of the King of the City, but had always been protecting the kingdom of the Western Region.
"How can I trust you?" The Western Region Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly: "You are the Crown Prince's Consort of the Ding Kingdom Palace. How do I know if you say this for some purpose?"
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Now the Western Region is just an empty shell. I think other countries have also received the news. If you want to conquer the Western Region, it won't take much effort. What do I need an empty shell for? But your collection of jade unicorns is really exquisite."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Western Region Emperor's face turned red. He struggled to sit up, staring at her intently: "It's you! It's you!"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "Don't worry, if the next monarch is a good person, I will definitely return everything I took from the treasury."
The Emperor of the Western Regions seemed to have lost all his strength and lay limp on the bed.
He looked up with empty eyes for a long while, then sneered: "You are right, it is really aggrieved for an emperor to be like this. Among all my sons, only the prince is the one who loves me the most, but he wants me to die." She looked at Shang Ruoyi: "Who of my sons do you think is more suitable to inherit my position?"
"This is your own business. How can I, a foreigner, influence the succession?"
The Western Region Emperor looked at her and smiled: "You just said that I still have two days to live, but is that true?"
"Two hours at most." She checked the pulse of the Western Region Emperor. The poison in his body had not been cured, and he was just being kept alive by pills. If he hadn't taken the medicine, he might not have survived for two hours.
"I want to go to court, do you have any ideas?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "Yes, there is, but this will consume your life faster."
