Chapter 385 Her Majesty's Harem 324
Shang Xuan stood tall and straight, his black robe fluttering slightly in the wind.
His face was as if cut by a knife, his sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, and his eyes were deep and cold, like stars in a cold night.
His expression was serious, his thin lips parted slightly, and he squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Be careful with your words."
He Jing's peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was a cynical smile on the corner of his mouth.
He moved closer to Shang Xuan like a ghost, and jokingly said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Shang Xuan, didn't you want to kill her before? Why do you suddenly care about her life or death now?"
Shang Xuan lowered his voice and scolded: "I didn't."
He Jing became more and more excited. He tilted his head and looked at Shang Xuan wantonly: "Oh, she succeeded. Did she take your virginity?"
Shang Xuan's face flushed red instantly, his eyes widened, veins popped out on his forehead, and he roared angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He Jing still had a playful smile on his face, crossed his arms, and kept asking, "If there's nothing, why are you speaking for her?"
Shang Xuan straightened his back and said righteously, "As a subject, I must take responsibility for the safety of Your Majesty."
His expression and tone made him look like a loyal and patriotic subject, but the slightly trembling corners of his clothes revealed his inner unrest.
He Jing curled his lips in disdain, uttered a light "tsk", and said sarcastically: "Tsk, that's a very high-sounding statement. However, although our Majesty is not good at governing the country, he is indeed a beauty of the country. If he were not sitting on the dragon throne, I guess he would be sought after by hundreds of families. Maybe I would too..."
bass--
Shang Xuan suddenly drew out the sword from his waist, and the sword gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
He shook his wrist, and the sword stopped steadily in front of He Jing's mouth. The sword energy was so strong that it blew up the hair on He Jing's forehead.
Shang Xuan's eyes were red, as if they were about to spit fire. He squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Don't talk nonsense. The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by the death of all nine generations of your family."
He Jing lowered his head and stared at the sword in front of him, swallowing.
She looked up at Shang Xuan with a hint of fear in her eyes: "Xiao Xuan Xuan, you must not like her. Even if you like me, you can't like that kind and domineering woman."
"......" Shang Xuan snorted coldly, flipped his wrist, put away his sword, turned around and strode away, leaving behind only one sentence: "...This is nonsense. I don't like old men."
He Jing covered his chest and shook his head in pain: "I was planning to sacrifice myself, but you actually look down on me."
Looking at Shang Xuan's receding back, I couldn't help but chase after him.
"Hey, are you really attracted to that woman? She's not a good person. Don't be fooled. She's played with more women than you've killed..."
…………
Yan Jiu sat on the couch, her eyes fixed on her slightly bulging belly, which was actually a "false pregnancy".
Song Yin and others wanted to get rid of the Queen Mother and the Prince, but it was difficult to kill them in a short time.
After all, the forces behind the Queen Mother and the Prince are so complex and intertwined, like a huge and hidden spider web. If one is not careful, it will affect the interests of all parties and cause an uproar.
Without conclusive evidence that can directly put them to death, it is simply a fantasy to want to sentence these two to death.
Yan Jiu stroked her belly and thought to herself: It's time to abort the fake one and get pregnant with the real one.
She said to Xiaohong beside her, "Xiaohong, I want to eat the eight-treasure roast chicken from the east side of the city."
Xiaohong quickly responded, "I'll go get someone to buy it right away."
Yan Jiu waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "No need. I'll just go and eat it. It won't taste good if I bring it back."
Xiaohong looked hesitant and tried to dissuade him: "But Your Majesty, it's not safe outside. Besides, Lord Song has announced that you are recuperating in the palace. What if someone sees you..."
Yan Jiu raised an eyebrow and said with a bit of willfulness, "So what if he saw it? I am the emperor. Even if I want to cultivate myself, I can't stay in the palace all the time. I went out incognito to eat roast chicken, which is also a way of showing sympathy for the people."
Xiaohong muttered softly, "Conscious of the people's feelings about roast chicken."
Yan Jiu feigned anger and said, "If you don't want to go, just stay here and I'll take Xiaolu to eat roast chicken."
When Xiaohong heard this, she quickly said, "Go, I'll go."
Seeing this, Xiaolu hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, I will arrange for the guards and secret guards to follow and protect you."
Yan Jiu thought for a moment and shook his head: "There is no need for guards. It's too conspicuous. Just bring a few more secret guards."
Xiaolu responded respectfully: "Yes."
The three of them got into a modestly decorated carriage.
The carriage sped along the cobblestone road and headed straight for the roast chicken shop in the east of the city.
The roast chicken shop is filled with aroma.
Yan Jiu looked at the golden and shiny roast chicken with excitement in his eyes.
She didn't care about the emperor's image and started eating with relish.
I saw her eating one roast chicken after another, and soon she had eaten five roast chickens.
Little Red and Little Green were quite frightened by his appetite, and they kept trying to stop him, "Your Majesty, we can roast a few more and take them back to eat. You don't have to eat them to death like this."
Yan Jiu acted as if he didn't hear anything and continued eating.
After slowly drinking another bowl of chicken soup, he wiped his mouth contentedly and said, "Well, pack ten for me."
The moment I stepped out of the roast chicken shop, something unexpected happened.
Yan Jiu suddenly felt a surge of blood and energy, his throat felt sweet, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then, she felt as if all the strength in her body was drained away in an instant, her legs went limp, and she fell backwards.
Seeing this, Xiaohong and Xiaolu turned pale with fear and cried out in unison, "Your Majesty!"
