Emperor, I Am Brutal

Yin Fufeng had said those words casually in the beginning, but it was just to let Xue Mier's words stop her.

Hehe, this official was just speaking casually, there is no need for Imperial Consort Xue to be so nervous.

"However, the Imperial Consort Xue may have returned empty-handed today, and your majesty has indeed issued an order. Anyone who wishes to visit the Empress today will need to receive an order from your majesty, for this is all a matter of life and death. I hope that the Imperial Consort Xue does not make things difficult for us."

Since the words had already been said, if Xue Mier was causing a ruckus, it would reach His Majesty's ears. Furthermore, Qin Shuo had been extremely irritable these past few days, so he absolutely did not dare to raise his eyebrows.

If there was only that one person, Zhao Qiyan, causing a ruckus, it would be fine, but if there was still Yin Fufeng, Xue Mier would definitely not dare to be rash.

Xue Mier was also afraid of someone who could even be described as "black".

"Cousin?" "Why are you here?"

Enraged, he returned to his own room. When he saw Wen Fuchen, who was sitting in the main hall, he was extremely surprised.

How did Wen Fuchen have the time to come and find him? Weren't they going to avoid arousing suspicion in the next few days?

"You arranged that person yesterday?"

Ever since Qin Shuo had gotten so angry at the meeting, Wen Fuchen finally understood that someone must have gone to kill Hu Xiao yesterday. He never expected that it would not succeed, if not Qin Shuo would not be so simple as getting angry.

"En, yesterday?"

Xue Mier was so stunned, she was slightly at a loss, what did she arrange yesterday?

"This morning, His Majesty got so angry in front of us, and even punished Zhao Qiyan and Yin Fufeng's salary for half a year. If it was the previous group of assassins, they would have been punished on the same day, but why did it have to be this morning? Could it be that you had your men do that yesterday? "

After all, Wen Fuchen was used to all these deceit in the imperial court, so his cousin could see through it with a glance.

"Cousin, I sent someone over yesterday, but that person hasn't returned yet. Cousin, could something have happened?"

Xue Mier started to panic, if that person was really caught, what should she do? If Ye Xiao was given away, wouldn't he be completely ruined?

"It really is you."

His speculation had been proven right now, but Wen Fuchen was not happy at all. The worry in his heart was the same as Xue Mier.

"Yesterday, I was caught by Zhao Qiyan on the spot, and now, other than His Majesty and Zhao Qiyan, no one else can enter the place where the two were imprisoned, think carefully about how you should escape, and go and visit the Queen."

There was nothing else he could do. If he could get on good terms with the empress before him, he wouldn't have to worry about getting rid of his crimes!

Hearing that, Xue Mier nodded, other than that, Xue Mier knew what Wen Fuchen meant.

After Wen Fuchen left Xue Mier's place, he immediately went to find Qin Shuo, and looked forward to the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens, but it had been delayed for such a long time because of Hu Xiao's injury. If he could persuade his majesty to ask him to head over first, wouldn't it be great if Hu Xiao was allowed to stay at the Elephant Water Villa to recuperate?

"What did you say?" Let the empress stay at the Elephant Water Villa to recuperate? "

Hu Xiao looked at Wen Fuchen who was kneeling in front of him, and felt his heart go cold. Hu Xiao was injured because she had saved him, Qin Shuo actually suggested for him to keep Hu Xiao here, wouldn't that mean that the emperor would be forced to a place of disloyalty and injustice? Furthermore, Water Villa was not safe to begin with. If Hu Xiao was the only one left, what difference would there be in death?

"Your Majesty, we can't delay the sacrifice of the heavens. This is a matter that cannot be helped. A major event requires a small scheme, and the Empress is very weak right now. If we force our way through, I'm afraid the Empress won't be able to hold on."

The words were spoken sincerely, and from the looks of Wen Fuchen, it seemed that he was doing it all for the sake of East Court. However, if Hu Xiao were to stay in the Elephant Water Villa forever, then South Yue would definitely attack him.

How could I be one of those people who break their word and sacrifice the heavens? If I can't even do this, then what's the use of being the emperor? "

When Wen Fuchen heard this, cold sweat trickled down his forehead. He had been thinking about how to let Hu Xiao use this opportunity to get rid of him, however, he had forgotten how loyal Qin Shuo was.

Indeed, in just a few days, Hu Xiao's injuries had healed much faster than expected.

"Your Majesty, I feel much better now. Later, let your Majesty bring your concubine to take a look at that assassin."

She was already impatient to see the person who dared to kill him, but she had always been listless and listless, and now that there were no longer any major issues, Hu Xiao had long rubbed her hands together.

"En, let's eat first."

Looking at Hu Xiao's face which had regained its red glow, although she was still pale, but seeing that Hu Xiao was alright, Qin Shuo agreed to the request.

"Empress, Imperial Consort Xue is here, do you want to see the Empress?"

In the past few days, Imperial Consort Xue had been requesting an audience, and Zhi Lan had already gotten used to it and was about to reject them. But who knew that today, Hu Xiao would be in high spirits and call out to him, as if she remembered something.

"Let her in."

Seeing that, Qin Shuo raised his eyebrow, with how happy he was today, even Imperial Consort Xue planned to see him? In the past, didn't he just reject it?

"Chenqie will participate in your Majesty's competition, Empress."

Xue Mier, on the other hand, had changed from her usual arrogance to being a lot warmer.

"Get up, little sister. It's great that you're here. I'm currently having a meal with the emperor. Little sister, why don't you join us?"

Originally, he had wanted to accept Hu Xiao's evil words, but he didn't expect it to be completely useless.

Even after she had done it, Xue Mier still felt that it was like a dream, was Hu Xiao that easy to get along with him? Could it be that her brain was injured?

Looking at Xue Mier's submissive look, Hu Xiao was in a good mood, what she wanted to do was to catch him off guard. She wanted to see why Xue Mier had come these past few days, in the past, she couldn't help but take a detour, even if it was to pay attention to her own injuries.

Furthermore, she, Hu Xiao, had already rejected Xue Mier at the door multiple times. With Xue Mier's personality, how far should she be hiding?

"In a while, I will go with His Majesty to see the assassin that came to kill me. Is there anything else Sister Xue can do? If not, shall we go together? "

The corner of Hu Xiao's mouth raised slightly. She had always thought that the Emperor's Southern Patrol was a big day, and there were so many guards, how could those assassins find him so easily. Sure enough, there was someone guiding them from behind.

After drinking a mouthful of the soup, Hu Xiao looked at Xue Mier happily.
