Shi Sheng ordered people to carry Dai Xu and swaggered towards the residence of those treacherous officials. He was determined to let those people see clearly. Those who did not dare to see clearly stopped at the door and waited until they saw clearly before leaving.
After seeing it, the imperial guards began to arrest people. Some military officials were quite strong and prepared to break out of the encirclement.
However, a group of assassins appeared out of nowhere and blocked those people.
All the treacherous officials were caught and locked up in prison.
Who would have thought that the Empress would make a move on her birthday and when all the envoys were gathered? They were caught off guard.
# Not only does the host have special skills for rebellion, but she also has special skills for calming chaos #
But host, if you act recklessly like this, something big will happen, okay?!!
… …
When Shi Sheng returned to the palace, it was almost dawn. She took off her wedding dress and walked towards the dragon bed.
Chen Bei was sleeping on his side outside. Shi Sheng went forward and pushed him inside. Chen Bei woke up abruptly and met a pair of dark eyes.
Chen Bei looked at her warily. What did she want to do?
Shi Sheng took off only her underwear. She retracted her hand. "Move in a little."
Chen Bei frowned and did not move.
The palace was silent. Other than the sound of their deep and shallow breathing, nothing else could be heard. They just looked at each other.
"This is my bed." Shi Sheng waited for a while and said unhappily, "Move in a little. I want to sleep."
Shi Sheng's face was a bit tired. If she hadn't secretly stopped those arrogant traitorous officials, they wouldn't have been able to stop them. Right now, she was so tired that she didn't even want to move a finger.
After a while, Chen Bei moved in. Shi Sheng got on the bed and lay in his previous position. She yawned and reached out to pull Chen Bei.
Chen Bei's body stiffened.
"Give me a hug. It'll be easier for you to kill me."
Chen Bei did not know if it was Shi Sheng's last sentence that moved him, but he actually allowed Shi Sheng to pull him into her arms. The gap between the two of them decreased, and they could almost hear each other's heartbeat.
Bang.
Bang bang.
Bang bang bang bang …
"Go to sleep." Shi Sheng patted his back, closed her eyes, and fell asleep just like that.
Chen Bei opened his mouth slightly to breathe. In the next second, he closed his mouth tightly and waited for the time to pass.
The sky outside gradually brightened, and there was the sound of palace servants moving around. Chen Bei twisted his sore neck and carefully moved to the side. The hand on his body did not have much strength, but when he moved, it immediately tightened and pulled him back.
Chen Bei was so scared that he did not dare to move. After a while, he tried to push Shi Sheng's hand.
The latter did not respond. Chen Bei swallowed his saliva and reached under the pillow. When his fingers touched something cold, he shivered. The next second, he clenched his fist and pulled the sharp dagger out from under the pillow.
The dagger was close to Shi Sheng's chest.
Chen Bei's hands trembled. He wanted to stab down, but his body did not listen to him. He did not even have the strength to hold the dagger firmly.
He stared at the side of Shi Sheng's face, completely unguarded. It was as if he had expected that Shi Sheng would not be able to do it.
Why?
Chen Bei lowered his eyes and slowly retracted his hand that was holding the dagger. At this moment, his hand was suddenly grabbed by someone and pressed against the bed. His entire body flipped backward, and there was an additional weight on his body.
"You want to play with such a dangerous thing so early in the morning, huh?" The voice of the person on top of him was slightly hoarse, but it was indescribably intoxicating.
She lowered her body, and her soft lips landed on his chin. She slowly moved her lips up to his. Chen Bei subconsciously struggled, but he was firmly pressed down by her.
She held his hand and guided him to press the dagger against her chest. The tip of her tongue traced the shape of his lips, and then she propped herself up. "Do you dare to stab it?"
The dagger was pressed against her heart. With a little force, it would pierce her chest and stab her beating heart.
Chen Bei's eyes were filled with confusion. This scene …
Shi Sheng felt that his hand was trembling. He moved the dagger away and pressed it against the bed. He bent down and drove straight in, not giving him a chance to react.
When Chen Bei came back to his senses, he bit the tip of her tongue. Blood immediately filled their lips and teeth.
Their mouths were filled with blood, and the taste was filled with the smell of iron. Their stomachs, which had not eaten anything yet, began to churn.
Shi Sheng pulled away and quickly got off the bed. He grabbed a robe on the floor and left the room.
"Bang."
The sound of the palace door slamming shut caused Chen Bei's body to tremble. His eyelashes trembled, and he slowly propped himself up. Blood dyed his lips red like a rose. He reached out to wipe the blood away, and stared in the direction of the palace door. There was a dim light inside.
… …
Shi Sheng squatted in a corner outside the palace and vomited for a long time. No one knew where he had bitten, but the blood only stopped after a while.
"Your Majesty?"
Lingyi's face was filled with curiosity. Why was His Majesty squatting here so early in the morning?
Shi Sheng stood up with a pale face and said weakly, "Get me something to eat. Something with a strong taste."
Lingyi quickly asked the palace maid beside her to prepare. She walked in front of Shi Sheng and was shocked. "Your Majesty, are you not feeling well? Why is your face so pale? "
"I'm fine." Shi Sheng casually wiped his mouth.
"Your Majesty, please ask the imperial physician to take a look." His face was already so pale, how could he be fine?
"I'm fine, why would I need an imperial physician?" Shi Sheng said snappily, "Is someone here to cause trouble?"
Lingyi looked at Shi Sheng suspiciously. Seeing that she was only a little pale and that there was nothing wrong with her body, he heaved a sigh of relief. "You have the commander's seal in your hand. Dai Xu and the Dai Clan have all been captured. Who would dare to cause trouble? Don't worry! "
Shi Sheng licked his dry lips. "Where's King Yu?"
"There's no movement from King Yu's side for the time being." Lingyi said, "I'm afraid that Dai Xu's defeat will cause them to hesitate and not dare to move for the time being. However, we have to be on guard. I heard that the Duke of Huainan used his troops like a god, and if it wasn't for the previous emperor removing her military power and making her the Duke of Huainan, some people predicted that the Duke of Huainan would be able to unite the world with Feng Luan.
"So awesome?" Shi Sheng slightly raised his eyebrows. The Duke of Huainan was from the previous emperor's generation. Perhaps the previous emperor didn't like it when people mentioned the Duke of Huainan, so the younger generation didn't know much about him.
"Yes, the Duke of Huainan and the previous emperor were as close as brothers. Ever since the previous emperor was chosen as the crown prince, the Duke of Huainan had always been by the previous emperor's side. If it wasn't for the Duke of Huainan, the previous emperor wouldn't have sat on the throne so smoothly, but …"
Lingyi paused. He didn't need to say anything else to know what it was.
The Duke of Huainan's achievements were so high that the previous emperor, who was as close as brothers, was afraid.
Therefore, he removed the military power of the Duke of Huainan and made her an idle prince in name only.
Shi Sheng sniffed and temporarily put the Duke of Huainan aside. "Did you ask who poisoned me before?"
Speaking of this, Lingyi's face turned even worse. She didn't know that His Majesty's death was caused by poisoning. If His Majesty hadn't asked them to interrogate those people, she probably wouldn't have known in her life.
"Not yet. Everyone said that they, including Prime Minister Dai, didn't poison you." Lingyi guessed, "Could it be that King Yu's men did it? She took the jade seal before … "
