Chapter 398: The Brutal Little Emperor vs. the Beauty Killer (4)
When Shen Yi wanted to hammer Lu Cha’s chest again, his wrist was grabbed.
"How can you behave like this in broad daylight, my dear?"
Lu Cha seriously moved Shen Yi's hand away.
I must not let the villain discover that I’m a girl!
Otherwise, how can you tease a beauty? !
Hehehe~
Shen Yi didn't take this matter to heart, thinking that Lu Cha had a bad figure and no muscles at all. With a blush on his cheeks, he lowered his head:
"Your Majesty is right."
"Then I will take my leave first and will not disturb Your Majesty's rest."
He wanted to go back and check whether he was poisoned.
Watching the beautiful woman Shi Ran get up and leave, occasionally revealing her ink-colored boots from the hem of her skirt that dragged on the ground, Lu Cha raised her eyebrows slightly, and was certain that Shen Yi was a man.
Even if there is a beauty who is nearly 1.9 meters tall in this small world, she can't wear men's boots!
I suspect the little villain's feet are too big and he can't buy suitable embroidered shoes!
But what's that stuffed in his chest that's so soft?
I'll find a chance to take a look next time!
Lu Cha smiled maliciously and carefully recalled the original plot.
The original plot did not mention any details about Shen Yi's entry into the palace. It only wrote that he was sent into the palace by Gu Guifan, ambushed beside the original owner, and secretly looked for opportunities to assassinate him.
The two people have never even met each other.
Today she pushed Empress Dowager Rong. The villain must have thought that she drank too much and that he had an opportunity to take advantage of her, so he came here to act.
Now he has misunderstood that she has poisoned him. I guess the little villain will come to her frequently in the near future.
The system couldn't help but complain: "You pulled the pearls off the dragon robe and lied to people that it was poison. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Lu Cha said confidently, "I never said I gave him poison."
The little villain scared himself, is it my fault?
The system is not strong enough to be offline.
It's unnecessary for it to speak for that person!
The eunuch Xiaoshan, who was waiting outside the palace, watched Shen Yi go away in astonishment.
This was the first time that a concubine left His Majesty's side safely.
It turns out that His Majesty likes charming women like Shen Zhaoyi!
Thinking of the announcement just now, Xiaoshan calmed down, bowed his waist and walked into the hall, and spoke respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Prince De requests an audience."
-
Located in the most desolate northwest corner of the palace, there is a dilapidated small palace.
Because it is adjacent to the cold palace where many people died, usually no eunuchs or palace maids come here.
Shen Yi pushed open the old faded mahogany palace door.
There were a lot of dead leaves piled up in the yard, which made it look very desolate and deserted.
To prevent anyone from discovering his identity, he disposed of all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace and buried them in the well in the backyard.
Shen Yi lazily sat on the stone bench in the yard and tapped the table lightly.
The next moment, a man in black appeared silently from the shadows and knelt on one knee in front of Shen Yi:
"Yingyi pays homage to the Pavilion Master."
This is one of the assassins of Chunxue Pavilion. He is proficient in medicine and is considered Shen Yi's confidant.
After accepting the task from Gu Guifan, he asked Yingyi to lead the people from Chunxue Pavilion to ambush in the palace.
Shen Yi turned his hand back, revealing his wrist, and without deliberately lowering his voice, he spoke slowly and magnetically:
"Look what poison I've been poisoned with."
Ying Yi stroked Chen Yi's wrist with a serious expression.
In a moment, Yingyi's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (river).
"Aside from the Twin Gu poison, there's no other poison in the Pavilion Master's body, but we can't rule out the possibility that my subordinates are incompetent and can't find it."
"Please forgive me, Master."
Shen Yi propped his arm against the stone table, his knuckles supporting that enchanting face, without blaming Ying Yi:
"What kind of poison can't be detected?"
Yingyi thought for a moment and replied, "Death in ten days."
"It's rumored to kill within ten days. It's colorless and odorless. Even a miracle doctor might not be able to detect this poison."
"Moreover, anyone who is poisoned by this will undoubtedly die within ten days. No one possesses the antidote except the person who poisoned it."
"But Ichishun's death is just a rumor. How could that tyrant have it?"
“No matter if it’s true or not, send someone to search Helian Lu first.” Shen Yi waved his hand to let Ying Yi retreat, with doubt in his eyes.
Gu Guifan said that Helian Lu only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and often killed people in a moody manner. He has grown into a bloodthirsty little monster.
But today in the bedroom, Helian Lu behaved normally, except for one thing that was extremely disgusting.
The boy kept staring at his chest.
Shen Yi took out two large cloth bags filled with cotton that he had hidden in his clothes.
This was his first time disguising himself as a woman, so to avoid exposing himself, he specially prepared a cloth bag as a disguise and also used something special to cover his Adam's apple.
Recalling the boy's clear eyes, although without a trace of color or distraction, it still makes people feel uncomfortable, as if they can see through him.
Even took the opportunity to touch his hand.
Sejun.
Shen Yi’s beautiful fox eyes were full of disgust.
[Ding—Villain’s favorability value -5, the villain’s current favorability value is -5.]
-
Lu Cha, who had just arrived at the imperial study, was bewildered when he heard the system's notification tone.
Why did the little villain lose favorability?
Suddenly a sarcastic voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, you have kept me waiting for so long."
The man sitting on the chair was wearing a dark blue robe with gold threads. He was over forty years old, but with his sharp eyebrows and eagle eyes, he was still handsome.
It was the original owner’s uncle, the King of De of Jinchang - Helian De.
Looking at the young man in dragon robe, with red lips and white teeth, who looked like a cute little pet kept by dignitaries, a barely perceptible contempt flashed across Helian De's eyes.
If he had not been out traveling and failed to return to the capital in time, how could this little bastard have taken advantage of the opportunity and become the emperor?
The late emperor was his biological brother, and he was obviously the most qualified person to inherit the throne!
Unfortunately, now that Helian Lu is the emperor, he has to pretend to be submissive.
Helian De suppressed the resentment in his heart and smiled hypocritically:
"Your Majesty, I've noticed the position of Minister of Revenue has been vacant for a long time. Since I've been idle lately, why don't you hand the Ministry of Revenue over to me?"
Lu Cha sat at the table, took the teacup handed to him by Xiaoshan and took a sip.
Prince De was addicted to gambling and liked to hang out in brothels. He often spent a lot of money to win the smiles of prostitutes, resulting in the palace always having insufficient money.
He borrowed a lot of money from the original owner for various reasons, but never paid it back.
Unfortunately, Prince De had a very good relationship with Queen Mother Rong and had tens of thousands of soldiers at his disposal.
The original owner was afraid of Empress Dowager Rong and was also worried about the loss of the throne, so he did not dare to refuse Prince De's so-called loan. He could only swallow his anger and later killed the palace maids and eunuchs to vent his anger.
To put it bluntly, it means bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
The Ministry of Revenue was in charge of the salaries of Jinchang officials, financial revenue and expenditure, and other matters.
If it were handed over to Prince De, I'm afraid Jinchang would really be finished.
Lu Cha has curved eyebrows and looks harmless:
"Let's talk about the loan from the emperor's uncle first."
Spit out all the silver to me!
