The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 7
[Chapter 6]
Shen Yu didn’t speak, he stared blankly, as if frightened.
The temperature in the room was like a cold wind passing through, and it was freezing to the bone.
Shang Junlin looked at Shen Yu silently, and the ink in his eyes became thicker.
The low air pressure pressed against him, silently urging him to walk over.
Shen Yu took two steps forward and stopped a few steps away from the pool of blood.
He could feel that the eyes with a strong sense of presence stayed on him, and the air pressure in the imperial study was extremely low.
“You can get your clothes dirty, Your Majesty, why didn’t you come to my side?”
The man who was about to attack suffocated, and the air pressure all over his body solidified, and even the man kneeling on the side couldn’t help but raise his head.
Shang Junlin glanced casually, and the man immediately lowered his head in fright, not daring to be presumptuous any more.
“Heh,” Shang Junlin laughed suddenly, “You are very courageous.”
If a real gaze fell on him, Shen Yu would face it impartially, and the two eyes met, Shen Yu could not see that Shang Junlin was there. Thinking about something, I just feel that the other party’s mood seems to have improved.
Throwing the handkerchief into the pool of blood, the white was instantly stained with blood red, Shang Junlin didn’t even look at it, and strode towards Shen Yu.
Shen Yu stood on the spot, watching King Xuanyi walk towards him step by step, every step he took, the hostility of the other party disappeared.
Until standing in front of him, the aura of Emperor Xuanyi had completely subsided.
Shen Yu raised the food box in his hand: “I brought soup for Your Majesty, do you want to use it?” He
didn’t ask a word why such a scene appeared in the Royal Study Room.
“Aren’t you afraid?” Shang Junlin asked with great interest.
There was not even a hint of fear on Shen Yu’s face, and the blood all over the floor seemed to not exist in his eyes. According to Shang Junlin’s understanding, Shen Yu should not have seen such a scene.
The exploratory gaze fell on his face, and his gloomy face did not change. Of course he would not be afraid. The bloody scene caused by his hands in the past life was far more cruel than the one in front of him.
Shen Yu tilted his head and glanced at the man lying in a pool of blood, then slowly turned his gaze to the kneeling man, and finally, his gaze returned to the face of the man in front of him.
The man was almost a head taller than Shen Yu, and the two were so close that Shen Yu had to look up to see his face.
“Since he has offended His Majesty, he deserves what happens.” Shen Yu stared at Shang Junlin’s eyes and said word by word.
The pupils shrank slightly, and Shang Junlin raised his hand and pinched Shen Yu’s chin: “I didn’t expect my noble lord to face me like this.” The
man’s tone was calm, without the slightest joy, Shen Yu kept staring at the man’s face, not missing the other party The expression on his face changed in an instant.
“Your Majesty,” Shen Yu reached out and grabbed the man’s hand to squeeze his chin, meaning, “I am His Majesty’s person, and naturally I will always go to Your Majesty.”
“You’d better remember what you said at all times.” Shang Junlin He let go of his hand, his expression became
gentle
, “Didn’t you say you brought me soup? Let me taste your craftsmanship.”
, was held by the man’s strong hand.
Shen Yu was led by the other party, bypassed the pool of blood, and sat in front of the imperial case.
Shang Junlin didn’t instruct the palace servants to open the food box by himself. In a flash, the aroma of the food floated out, enticing the secretion of saliva.
It ‘s just…
This aroma is mixed with the undeniable bloody smell, which is indescribably weird.
Shen Yu glanced down, no one dared to act without Shang Junlin’s order, seeing that Shang Junlin was going to drink the soup directly, Shen Yu tugged at his sleeve.
“Why, you are afraid after realizing it?” The
man’s brows and eyes were hidden behind the sweltering heat, and he couldn’t see it clearly.
“No, Your Majesty doesn’t think…” Shen Yu paused, “Is it unappetizing to eat in such an environment?”
In some respects, Shen Yu has a strange obsession, for example, he doesn’t like to have any food while dining. Something unsightly appeared in front of you.
For the people kneeling on the ground and lying in a pool of blood, Shen Yu doesn’t care how they made Shang Junlin unhappy. The current Shang Junlin is not a tyrant who killed innocent people indiscriminately in a few years. There are certain reasons for what he did. He also did not intend to get involved in the affairs of the court.
Not missing the flash of disgust on Shen Yu’s face, Shang Jun Lin paused, put the bowl in his hand back on the table, and said in a low voice, “Meng Chang.”
The door of the imperial study opened with a creak. , the warm light came in from outside the door, and Eunuch Meng came in with a few men in uniform black suits.
These men all wore masks on their faces, with only one pair of eyes showing.
These people move quickly and quickly, but their presence is not high. In less than a quarter of an hour, the imperial study room was restored to its original state. Even the kneeling people were dragged out by covering their mouths. There was no movement throughout the whole process. Should be done a lot.
“This is the Hidden Dragon Guard.” The
suddenly sounded voice pulled back Shen Yu’s thoughts, he returned to his senses, and found that King Xuanyi was looking at him with a confused expression.
Hidden Dragon Guard, Shen Yu had heard of the existence of this dark guard in his previous life. It is the sharpest knife in the hands of the royal family, and it is also the most loyal force. Except for the current emperor, no one can command them.
Shen Yu had dealt with them in the past life, and knew how terrifying their power was. They were definitely a terrible opponent. Shang Junyue did not know how much he suffered from them.
In this life, he shouldn’t face them…
“It’s cleaned up, can you eat now?”
Before Shen Yu could say anything, Shang Junlin had withdrawn his gaze, took a sip of the soup, and no one noticed where a faint smile appeared.
Shen Yu accompanies Shang Junlin to finish the meal, and leaves after brushing up on his presence.
All afternoon, Shang Junlin’s mood was much brighter.
Not long after, the emperor’s reward came down, and various treasures were continuously sent to the Yuzhang Palace, and the news was also spread outside the palace with the tacit approval of Shang Junlin.
As expected, the afternoon passed, and the news about how he was favored spread again, and not many people cared about what happened in the imperial study. Several people died in the palace every now and then, and they have been from the beginning. Trembling has become a habit.
Power and money are undoubtedly exciting. With such a good example as depression ahead, those who are careful can no longer hold back. If they can succeed, there will be a road to the sky waiting for them.
Zhao Guogong’s mansion.
Zhao Guogong invited his son and confidants to discuss matters in the study.
“Father, this is an opportunity. Right now, the harem is alone, a man who can’t have children. If a girl from our family enters the palace and has a son and a half daughter, she might be able to…” Zhao Guogong’s second son pointed out. Pointing to the sky, the unspoken words are all silent.
“Second Young Master said that it’s not too late for this matter, it’s better to seize the opportunity.” One of his confidants also agreed.
“This matter must be planned in detail. You can’t annoy Your Majesty because of this, or you will lose more than you will gain.”
Similar words happened in many dignitaries’ houses. Before the depression, Shang Junlin never let go of the harem. They just wanted to send their own girls. There is no chance to enter the palace, it is different now, and I have tasted it, presumably His Majesty will no longer refuse beauty to enter the palace.
In order to gain His Majesty’s favor as soon as possible, some families also prepared handsome men. His Majesty was interested in Shen Guijun, and maybe he would also be interested in other men.
All kinds of turmoil inside and outside the palace could not affect Shen Yu. After a sleep, Shen Yu knew what happened in the imperial study that day.
It turned out that someone put his hand into the palace and wanted to use the news he got for profit. Shang Junlin was too lazy to deal with these people and directly cut them down.
Shang Junlin acted quickly and didn’t give people a chance at all. Looking for clues to find someone, he couldn’t help but put the person in prison.
Except for a small number of people who spied on the truth, most people didn’t know what happened. Seeing that Shang Junlin suddenly attacked a well-known family, they were frightened and at the same time, they couldn’t help but feel a little chilled.
When someone close to the family pleaded for mercy during the court, the young emperor looked at it coldly and said nothing.
“Your Majesty, Yushi Zhang has always been fair and strict. I beg Your Majesty to open up.”
“I beg Your Majesty to open up.”
“Since you all think Yushi Zhang is right, then do you think I am wrong?”
“I dare not! ”
I see that you are very daring. Anyone who pleads again will go to the prison to accompany Zhang Yushi. I believe that Zhang Yushi will be very grateful for your colleagues.”
As soon as the words fell, the hall suddenly became quiet, and there were some people who interceded. When he started to flinch, the ministers all knew that the emperor was not joking at all when he said this. If someone continued to intercede, they would really be directly imprisoned. This has happened more than once or twice so far.
Several people looked at each other and took a step forward, obviously not planning to back down.
It was already a day after Shen Yu got the news. Because His Majesty was in a bad mood, the palace was full of turmoil, everyone was in danger, and the atmosphere in Yuzhang Palace was also a little sluggish.
“Young Master…” Mu Xi looked worried. She was close to him and knew a little more about the inside story than the palace people. Outsiders all said how the son was favored. Only she knew that was not the case.
“The three adults were really imprisoned for begging?” Shen Yu asked, fiddling with the beads.
“Yes, before the early morning was over, His Majesty had someone drag them down.”
Shen Yu fell silent. The matter of Yushi Zhang had also happened in a previous life, but it happened a lot later than now. Even though Yushi Zhang was innocent on the surface, he did a lot of things behind the scenes, such as buying and selling officials, occupying fertile land, Zi’s murder… It’s just that he hid it deeply and did a good job in the aftermath, so no one knows about it.
Shang Junlin arrested people, but did not announce their crimes, and allowed others to misunderstand whether it was really unknown or…
Caught Mrs. Tang in her hands, she stood up in depression: “Go out for a walk.”
Mu Xi took the cape .
Putting on Shen Yu’s clothes, the two brought a few palace servants out of the Yuzhang Palace.
“You still want to climb the branch and become a phoenix, without seeing what you look like?”
“Yo yo, who are you trying to seduce by dressing like this?”
“How proud are you when your master is locked in?”
… …
The noise came from not far away, and the palace servant was about to step forward to scold, but was stopped by Shen Yu.
The place where Shen Yu was located was the corner, just to be able to see the scene not far away. Several palace servants were beating a thinly dressed woman, kicking, kicking, and taunting. The woman lowered her head and her face was blocked by hair. The hand that fell on his side was clenched tightly, enduring the malice from all around.
Deliberately making some noise, Shen Yu and his party were quickly discovered, and the palace people quickly knelt down to greet him. When Shen Yu approached, a gust of wind blew, the woman’s face was exposed, and Shen Yu’s footsteps stopped.
——This woman’s eyebrows are three-point similar to his.
