Chapter 433: The Brutal Little Emperor vs. the Beauty Killer (39)
"Teacher, please stand up." Lu Cha helped Li Taifu up.
"Between you and me, there's no need to worry about these empty formalities."
Finally got the tool man!
Li Taifu's usual ambivalence: "This old minister dare not disregard etiquette. What if one day I displease His Majesty and he wants to chop off my head?"
Lu Cha teased calmly, "Then deduct your salary for next year as well. This will be considered as early compensation for my unhappiness, just in case."
Imperial Tutor Li's eyes widened with anger: "Your Majesty, don't go too far!"
His salary for this year has already been docked! Your Majesty is still thinking about next year's salary?!
But at this moment, Xiaoshan entered the palace and reported: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Gu requests an audience."
Imperial Tutor Li instantly became serious and warned Lu Cha, "Prime Minister Gu is a cunning man. Your Majesty must be wary of him."
He always suspected that the person who was behind Helian De's rebellion was Gu Guifan.
But Gu Guifan pretended to be a loyal minister and could not find any fault with him. He had no solid evidence and could only refrain from taking any action against the other party for the time being.
Lu Cha: "Teacher, don't worry. I am well aware of Gu Guifan's evil ambitions."
"Teacher, please work harder for a while and remove Gu Guifan's followers. Then the three masters Zhao, Qian and Sun can contact you without worry."
Before going to Qingshi Village, she pulled these three adults into her camp.
"It is the duty of this old minister to help Your Majesty eliminate the traitors and rebels."
After saying this, Master Li left from the side door on the other side.
And Lu Cha asked Xiaoshan to bring Gu Guifan in.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Gu Guifan bowed and saluted, then excitedly looked at Lu Cha who was sitting on the chair.
"God bless you, your majesty, and be safe."
A few days ago, he learned that the assassination plan was successful. He originally wanted to send someone to kill Helian De and ascend the throne himself, but the other party brought back the bodies of Helian Lu and Shen Yi.
With Shen Yi’s martial arts skills, it was impossible for him to fall off a cliff and die, so he chose to wait and see.
As expected, he received news from Shen Yi last night that Helian Lu was still alive.
He ordered people to clean up all contacts with Helian De overnight, pretending that he was forced to do so, in case Helian Lu came back to investigate.
But what Helian Lu said in the court today, could it be that he discovered something?
Gu Guifan suppressed his suspicions and sighed deliberately, testing the emperor's attitude: "I never thought that Prince De would be so audacious."
"Not only did he attempt to assassinate His Majesty and murder the Empress Dowager, he also threatened all officials to attend his coronation ceremony."
"Fortunately, His Majesty returned safely and got rid of Prince De and those rebellious ministers."
Gu Guifan raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, as if he was crying with excitement.
Lu Cha looked at him with a playful look.
The male lead’s acting is pretty good.
Knowing that Gu Guifan came today to confirm whether he had any doubts about him, Lu Cha stood up and patted his shoulder in a comforting manner:
"My dear, you have worked hard during this period."
"This kind of thing will never happen again in the future."
"Because I will kill all those who covet the throne."
The little emperor looked at him with satisfaction, his eyes clearly glistening, but Gu Guifan inexplicably felt a chill.
It was as if being stared at by a wild beast lurking in the darkness.
Gu Guifan tried hard to ignore the discomfort and nodded his head in loyalty: "Your Majesty, I will help you clear all obstacles."
"Just these words from Gu Aiqing are enough."
Lu Cha sniffed with emotion, and he and Gu Guifan staged another scene of loyal minister and wise ruler, and then asked them to leave.
Every time I see the male lead, I cry.
Lu Cha wiped away the tears of her acting face and told Xiao Shan, "Prepare a set of night clothes. I need to go to the Prime Minister's residence tonight."
If it is not convenient for the young heroine to enter the palace, then she will deliver the medicine to her door!
Hehehe~
-
And inside Chaoyang Palace.
Shen Yi leaned lazily on the soft couch, listening to Ying Yi report what had just happened in the Golden Palace.
Upon learning that the young man had pushed the matter of Queen Mother Rong onto Helian De, Shen Yi unconsciously curled his lips.
That's smart.
This avoided the trouble of Empress Dowager Rong being unable to explain her injuries if others discovered them in the future.
Sensing the subtle sound of footsteps outside the hall, Shen Yi immediately waved his hand to let Ying Yi hide. Just as he was about to open the door to check, someone pushed the door open first.
An ordinary-looking eunuch walked in and bowed symbolically: "The Prime Minister ordered me to urge Shen Zhaoyi to speed up."
"If you don't steal the imperial seal within two days, the Lord will kill your sister."
Relying on the fact that the person behind him was Gu Guifan, the eunuch squinted at Shen Yi with contempt: “Shen Zhaoyi, don’t think that you can go against the Prime Minister just because you have the favor of His Majesty.”
"The Prime Minister is very dissatisfied with you now."
"Your Majesty planned so many things and hid in Qingshi Village, but you only told him that His Majesty was not dead, which almost exposed him..."
Before the eunuch could finish his words, he fell straight to the ground with a thud.
A golden hairpin was completely embedded in the eunuch's heart.
"It's so noisy." Shen Yi asked Ying Yi to come out to clean up the bodies with disgust, his eyes were extremely cold.
If it weren't for the twin poisons in his body, why would he help Gu Guifan?
Unfortunately, there is still no clue on how to remove the poison.
Shen Yi lay exhausted on the soft couch, a trace of struggle flashing through his eyes.
After a moment, he spoke in a deep voice:
"Go prepare your things and attack Helian Lu tonight."
-
By the time Lu Cha finished reviewing the memorials piled up in the imperial study, the sun was setting and there was still some time before dark.
Xiao Shan, who was waiting at the door, suddenly walked in with an ambiguous smile: "Your Majesty, Consort Shen just sent someone to say that when you are done, please return to the palace first."
"She has prepared a surprise for you in the Wine Pool Hall of the bedroom."
"?" Lu Cha raised his head in confusion.
What surprises can the little villain give her?
"Then let's go back to the bedroom now."
It just so happened that she also needed to go back and change into her night clothes.
The Wine Pool Palace is located behind the bedroom and was where the original owner usually drank and had fun.
Finding that the palace door was closed and there was no palace guard outside, Lu Cha asked Xiaoshan to stay where he was and wait, and then pushed the door open curiously.
At the same time, melodious piano music was heard in the hall.
Lu Cha's pupils suddenly contracted.
I saw a beautiful lady sitting in the center of the hall, wearing a fiery red dress, playing the piano with her head lowered.
The incense burner on the table was filled with misty smoke, which made his beautiful and charming face hazy and added a bit of mystery.
At the edge of the wine pool, there were six beautiful dancers, dancing gracefully to the sound of the piano.
The rich aroma of wine and the sweet fragrance of flowers are intertwined and permeate the air, inexplicably tempting one to fall into it.
Lu Cha was stunned.
What is the little villain trying to do???
Bringing a dancer to seduce her?
