"That's it."

Lin Yi sighed, stretched out and leaned on the back of the chair: "Then there's nothing we can do."

His reaction really made Chang Sun Sheng a little stunned.

Changsun Sheng was surprised: "You don't regret it at all?"

Lin Yi looked at him and said with a bit of pity in his tone: "I have nothing to regret, as long as you don't regret it yourself."

"ha?"

Changsun Sheng felt confused and thought that Lin Yi couldn't bear the blow and was confused.

After all, one second he was holding a full twenty points of luck dividends. If he just takes a little salt, he would not have to struggle for the rest of his life. It would be enough for him to spend the rest of his life. However, in the next second, he would have nothing, but would still have to suffer. Heartache comes back.

It ranges from internal injuries, leaving a lifelong psychological shadow, to death on the spot, complete with soul destroyed!

No matter who is in this position, I'm afraid they will be confused and unwilling to accept reality.

As a result, just one breath later, Changsun Sheng's proud expression suddenly froze, and his whole aura immediately froze, as if an invisible giant hand had strangled his soul, making him extremely frightened.

Lin Yi said calmly: "Being a man must keep your word. I thought you should understand such a basic principle. I originally wanted to cooperate with you in the long run, but it's a pity."

Changsun Sheng finally reacted and looked at Ning Yuqi in disbelief. He opened his mouth to question, but no sound came out.

Ning Yuqi turned away and couldn't bear to look at him.

From the beginning to the end, Changsun Sheng did not notice that it was not Lin Yi who drank the wine that broke the promise, but himself.

It was Ning Yuqi who was secretly exchanging drinks.

Lin Yi stood up and put a hand on Changsun Sheng's shoulder: "The backlash of my heart's oath is no small matter, you have to hold on."

As he spoke, he released part of the world's will and quietly enveloped Changsun Sheng's soul.

Of course, Lin Yi would not repeat the stupid thing between the farmer and the snake. He just wanted to prevent Changsun Sheng from dying now.

At least for now, a paralyzed Chang Sun Sheng is more valuable than a dead Chang Sun Sheng.

But having said that, regardless of whether he drank the broken promise wine or not, Chang Sun Sheng's behavior had essentially violated his vow. Even if it hadn't happened today, it would have been a matter of time before he suffered the backlash from his vow.

Facts have proved that this wave of backlash came extremely fiercely.

Without the protection of the world's will, Changsun Sheng's soul would immediately fall apart and he would die suddenly on the spot.

Now, Changsun Sheng barely managed to breathe, but his soul was still severely and permanently traumatized.

Even the best outcome is to remain in a vegetative state for the rest of his life and never wake up again.

Seeing Chang Sun Sheng fall stiffly, Lin Yi glanced at Ning Yuqi: "We can start to deal with the aftermath."

Ning Yuqi's expression froze, and finally he responded in a low voice: "Yes."

The moment she returned to the inner court yesterday, she was extremely happy. She thought she could continue to be a princess's wife comfortably, and at most she could only help Lin Yi beat the drum when necessary.

I never expected that things would develop to this point in just one day.

She had no choice.

She didn't dare to tell Chang Sun Sheng that she had become an undercover agent.

Once she said it, given the coldness that Changsun Sheng had shown before, the most likely choice was not to give her a hand for the sake of the couple's relationship, but to hand her over directly.

She did have a lot of complaints about Chang Sun Sheng.

But looking at Changsun Sheng's collapsed appearance, Ning Yuqi had mixed feelings.

Lin Yi saw this and said: "You help him back to the room first, but the news of his accident cannot be kept secret for long. There will be a storm in the Protector's Mansion soon. You must be mentally prepared and be sure to control the whole situation." , I will stay and help you."

In any case, taking over the Protector's Palace is the first priority. This is Lin Yi's first step to gain a foothold in the Inner Palace.

Originally, this was also an opportunity for Changsun Sheng and the Protectorate.

After all, once Lin Yi gains momentum, as the earliest participant and ally of the Inner Court, he will definitely be able to get a large share of the pie.

In this regard, Lin Yi has never been stingy.

Unfortunately, Changsun Sheng himself pushed away this opportunity.

Ning Yuqi hesitated for a moment and said, "The second and third bedrooms have always been dissatisfied and have been coveting the position of Lord Protector. Once something happens, they will definitely make trouble. I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress them."

After a pause, she suggested: "How about I find an excuse to block the news about the young master for a while, so that we can be more relaxed and arrange more backup plans."

Lin Yi rejected it directly: "No, you only have one night to prepare. The news of his accident will be revealed before noon tomorrow."

Ning Yuqi was surprised.

Although she is the concubine of the Protector of the Country whom Chang Sun Sheng is marrying, her natal family background is poor and her marriage period is short. In particular, she has a criminal record of being exiled to the Kingdom of God on land. All these factors combined have destined her to be in the role of the Protector of the Country now. The government cannot have much influence.

Once the second and third bedrooms get into trouble, it will be difficult for her to control the situation given her ability.

In this case, it is obviously not wise to act too hastily.

Lin Yi explained: "The catastrophe of the rules is coming soon. This opportunity is rare. The Protector's Mansion is of great use, so it must be detonated as soon as possible, and you must take over the situation as soon as possible."

Ning Yuqi was still in a dilemma.

However, seeing Lin Yi's inexplicable glance over, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Her task was to cooperate with Lin Yi unconditionally. She had to do whatever Lin Yi said, without any room for bargaining.

After all, she is just Guan Zhengxuan's pawn now.

As a chess piece, you cannot have your own ideas, otherwise you will be doomed.

Ning Yuqi immediately obeyed.

On one side, she called the maid and led Lin Yi to the guest room to entertain him. On the other side, she supported Changsun Sheng, pretending to be drunk, and helped him into the room.

At the same time, she called her few cronies in the Duke's mansion overnight and began to make arrangements.

The second day.

The news that Changsun Sheng's soul had been damaged and turned into a vegetative state spread like wildfire. In an instant, it alarmed everyone in the Duke Protector's Mansion, and all the family's top officials came immediately upon hearing the news.

The second and third bedrooms are even more aggressive.

"My eldest brother was fine yesterday. Why is he like this today? What happened?"

Sun Hong, the head of the second room, checked Chang Sun Sheng's condition and looked suspicious.

The same doubts also appeared in the minds of all senior family members.

After all, Changsun Sheng is not an ordinary person. If he says he becomes a vegetative state, he will become a vegetative state. After all, he is also a Dzogchen Master of the Mysterious Level. Even if his realm is watery, he is definitely not someone who will make him incapacitated casually.

The suspicious eyes of everyone in the audience fell on Ning Yuqi.
