What a beautiful young master.
When the Imperial Guards saw the person who ran in front of them, they were stunned. They had seen many men and worked in the palace all year round. They had also seen many nobles and maids in the harem, but they had never seen such a handsome man before.
He didn't look like someone from Feng Luan …
What a pity.
Men from other countries would find it hard to accept becoming a woman's accessory.
At this moment, the people chasing after the young man arrived. When they saw the imperial guards, they immediately cupped their fists. "Sir, our young master is muddle-headed from his fever. Please forgive him for offending you."
The Young Master in red opened his dark eyes. There was fear in his eyes. "I don't know them."
When they saw that Shi Sheng didn't respond, they went forward. "Young master, you're sick. We'll go back and see a doctor. You'll be fine soon."
"I don't know you." The young man avoided their hands.
"Young master, please don't make things difficult for us. We're just following orders. Please come back with us."
Although they were persuading him, they still wanted to catch the young man.
"Let him come over." Shi Sheng suddenly said.
The imperial guards looked back at Shi Sheng. They were hesitant. What if this person was an assassin?
Shi Sheng looked calmly at the imperial guards who were blocking the young man. They hesitated for a moment before moving aside. The young man immediately ran towards Shi Sheng and hid behind her. "I don't know them. Save me."
"Sir, what are you doing?" The men didn't dare to get into a conflict with the imperial guards. It was obvious that they knew the status of the imperial guards in Feng Luan.
Someone who could bring these imperial guards out of the palace was definitely a favorite of the Empress.
"He said he doesn't know you." Shi Sheng's tone was calm.
"This is really our young master. He's not satisfied with the arrangements made by his family. Sir, if you don't believe me, you can send someone back with us. You'll know once you ask."
Shi Sheng glanced at the young man hiding behind her. "Which country are you from?"
The men looked at each other and cupped their fists. "We are from the Kingdom of Shu. This young master is a birthday gift that we are about to present to Her Majesty the Empress. Please return him to us."
The young man's face immediately turned pale. He glanced at the people around him, and his face was filled with annoyance. He seemed to have made a wrong decision.
"To Her Majesty the Empress?" Shi Sheng narrowed his eyes, and there seemed to be a dangerous murderous aura circulating around him. But when he glanced at the young man's pale face, the murderous aura disappeared silently.
"Yes." Since this person was from the palace, he definitely wouldn't dare to meddle in other people's business. After all, this person was serving Her Majesty, the empress.
Shi Sheng licked his dry lips and said, "Kill them."
The burly men looked up at the Shi Sheng in disbelief and shouted, "How dare you! We are envoys from the Kingdom of Shu. This is a gift for Her Majesty."
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Shi Sheng smirked. "Thank you for bringing him here. I'll leave your corpses intact. Do it."
The sound of fighting rang out, and the onlookers on the streets scattered like birds and beasts. Soon, only the people who were fighting were left.
When Lingyi rushed over, the people from the Kingdom of Shu were already lying on the ground. Shi Sheng pointed at the corpses and instructed casually, "These people from the Kingdom of Shu tried to assassinate me. You know how to deal with them."
Lingyi: "…" You've already shifted the blame to another country. No, wait, where did the young man behind you come from?
Could it be that Her Majesty had taken a liking to this young man, but he didn't want to give it to her, so she took action to snatch him? Seeing that the young man's face was pale with fright, that must be the case.
What a sin!
"Come with me?" Shi Sheng turned to look at the young man, and his tone was especially gentle.
The young man bit his lips, and his body trembled slightly. He wanted to say something, but in the next second, his body swayed and he fainted.
Shi Sheng: "…" What kind of stupid setting was this?
…
The young man lay quietly on the huge dragon bed, his long eyelashes fluttering. After a while, the young man opened his eyes and looked at the tassels on the top of his head in a daze.
The thin veil beside him was lifted, and someone took a look inside and was pleasantly surprised. "Ah, young master is awake."
The young man turned to look at the person who spoke. It was a very cute young lady. She hung the veil and said, "Young master, are you hungry?"
"Where is this place?" The young man seemed to be afraid, and his voice was trembling.
"The imperial palace."
Imperial palace?
Imperial palace!!??
Why did he still come to the imperial palace?
The young man got off the bed on all fours. The palace maid looked at him strangely, but did not go forward to help him. "Young master, what are you doing?"
He wanted to leave this place.
The young man quickly walked towards the entrance of the main hall, and when he opened the heavy door, he bumped into someone's embrace.
He looked up and met a pair of cold eyes. In the next second, that pair of eyes revealed a faint smile. "You're awake. I thought you would sleep for a while."
The young man pushed her away and leaned against the door behind him. His face was pale. "Why did you bring me to the imperial palace?"
"Because they offered you to me."
"What …" The young man's gaze fell on the dragon robe she was wearing, and as if he was hit, his lips trembled. "You're the Empress?"
He actually walked right into the trap.
Shi Sheng spread his hands. "Don't I look like one?"
The young man's expression was faintly angry. "You lied to me."
"When did I lie to you? You never asked me. "
The young man was stunned and could not refute. She really did not say anything. The young man could not refute. He could only open his eyes that were faintly misty and stare at Shi Sheng.
He tried his best to escape, but in the end, he still ended up in this place.
Why …
Was this the so-called fate?
The young man saw the imperial guards standing outside. In the distance, there was a tall wall that blocked the outside world. This was a cage, and now he was trapped in this cage.
Once he entered this place, he would never be able to escape.
The young man's body slid down helplessly. He squatted on the ground, hugged his knees with both hands, and buried his head between his legs. The lingering despair that surrounded him drowned him like a tide.
"What's wrong?"
A gentle voice asked in his ear. The voice was very pleasant, more pleasant than any voice he had ever heard.
"Get up first. The ground is cold."
The young man felt warmth on his arms. Like a small animal that had been violated, he struggled violently. Because of the inertia, his body fell to the ground. He supported himself on the ground and shrank back. His voice was fierce. "Don't touch me!"
Shi Sheng frowned. "Get up first. I won't touch you."
The young man looked at Shi Sheng warily. When he was sure that Shi Sheng had no intention of approaching him, he slowly propped himself up and clasped his hands in front of him. "I don't like you. Let me go."
"You'll like me."
"I won't!" The young man refuted loudly.
"You will." Shi Sheng was certain. "Stay here first. I promise that I won't touch you. If you still insist after three months, I'll send you away."
Three months …
Let him go after three months. The young man and Shi Sheng looked at each other. "You … mean what you say?"
"I mean what I say."
The young man looked at the imperial guards outside again. It seemed that he had no choice. He had already entered the palace …
"Okay."
