Chapter 717
The old emperor was always on his guard, and after what happened last night, he was still a bit cautious. Towards a seductive woman like Shui Ji, he had to be even more wary, never to get close to her again.
The old emperor stood at the edge of the hot spring and looked down at her. He did not answer her question, but asked coldly, "Did you guys get him?"
Although he didn't mention their names, Shui Ji immediately knew who the old emperor was talking about. The old emperor was asking about the whereabouts of the criminal in Jiang Ping City. This was something that the old emperor had ordered his men to do. Now that this matter had been accomplished, the tyrant would naturally be silenced. However, the old emperor had just received an urgent letter on his way over. The rapist had been rescued. Sky Flame was still investigating the assailant. Only Shui Ji and the others, who knew the truth, could move so quickly.
When Shui Ji saw the old emperor's change in attitude, she felt that her plan to be a beauty was no longer effective. However, she didn't plan to use the beauty trap anymore. After all, what happened in Jiang Ping city had already happened and the old emperor was already riding a tiger and couldn't get down.
She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I can answer you. But, I'll have to trouble you to go outside and wait for a moment! "
Although the old emperor's attitude towards Shui Ji had changed, he couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed when he saw Shui Ji turning against him so quickly. He didn't stay for long. He gave Water Fairy a special look of contempt before turning around and leaving.
Shui Ji watched the crowd disappear into the distance, and she was so angry that she burst into splashes. She said coldly, "Old thing, just you wait."
Shui Ji put on her clothes before slowly walking out. The old emperor was already starting to get impatient from waiting for her. When he saw Shui Ji come out, he immediately went up and questioned her, "Where is he?"
Shui Ji smiled, moving closer to the old Emperor before speaking in a low voice, "People are naturally in the hands of my third prince."
The old emperor was infuriated. He abruptly turned around and grabbed Shui Ji's neck. "You want to threaten me?"
Shui Ji wasn't afraid. She naturally had the confidence to come alone to negotiate with the old emperor. She said, "Your Majesty, you promised me that you would declare war on Ziye before, but now you have yet to make a move. Could it be that Jun Wu Yi was joking? When my third prince left, he specifically told me that you are too old and I have to let you off. Today, you will officially declare war on Tianyan. After the declaration of war, the three armies from the northeast of the Hundred Chu were under the jurisdiction of our Jade Dragon Army. Our cooperation with the north and south has caught the Sky Flame unawares. "How about it?"
The old Emperor was thoroughly enraged by these words. "You're courting death!"
What was the difference between this and splitting up the military power? This was an insult to even a small soldier, let alone an emperor! The old emperor's strength suddenly increased as he tightly held onto Shui Ji's neck. Shui Ji's originally pale face instantly flushed red. She couldn't control the pain in her face, but she didn't struggle. It wasn't because of anything else, but because she had a bargaining chip!
That the rapist was in her hands was equivalent to proof that the rape had been committed by the old Emperor. Once she revealed the truth, the old emperor would lose his morale, lose the hearts of the people, and even lose the heart of a group of officials!
The old emperor's furious eyes widened as the strength of his hands became increasingly stronger. Shui Ji was also feeling more and more uncomfortable, her eyes were about to turn white. However, the little girl was still struggling. Finally, the old emperor let go of her. He flung Shui Ji to the side and she fell to the ground, coughing twice before gasping for air.
Shui Ji only stood up after she recovered her breath. Her smile was especially charming, and she said, "Your majesty, it seems that you have agreed. Rest assured, once the Jade Dragon's Twelve Army takes over the three armies in the northeast of the Bai Chu, I can guarantee that the head of the rapist will be sent to you right away. Of course, the twelve generals of the Yu Family will definitely help you beat up the Sky Flame Army! "
The old emperor's hand hidden in his sleeve was tightly clenched. Although he had been taken advantage of, he could only continue this cooperation. All of his dissatisfaction could only be settled later! He did not answer her. He stared at her for a long moment before turning around.
Shui Ji knew that the old emperor had agreed, and was overjoyed. She quickly stopped him, "Your majesty, if you feel that this transaction is a loss, then it's a loss. I can personally make it up to you. "
The old emperor did not turn back. He had misunderstood that Shui Ji's compensation was a form of physical recompense. He continued to walk forward. Shui Ji was in a good mood as she caught up to him quickly and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Lady Su of the Han Family Castle and Boss Cheng of the Profound Sky Merchant Guild are all from Duke Jing. "You'd better be careful not to interact with these two families!"
The old emperor was momentarily stunned. Then, he quickly turned his head towards Shui Ji and questioned, "What did you say?"
Shui Ji still pretended that she didn't know about Han Yu'er's situation. She said, "The Southern Domain's Profound Sky Chamber of Commerce and the Han Family Castle are both forces of Jun Jiuchen. You can't go overboard with them."
The old emperor suddenly took two steps back and almost fell down. Shui Ji put on an act and quickly supported him. "Your majesty, what's wrong?"
The old emperor's expression changed drastically. He waved her hand and left without saying anything else. Shui Ji did not pursue. She looked at the old emperor's retreating back and the corner of her mouth curled up into a cold smile.
She thought, once she revealed the truth of Han Yu'er's assassination attempt, the old emperor would not only declare war in his rage, but he would immediately launch an all-out attack. At that time, the Jade Dragon Twelve Army would go all out against the three armies in the northeast. She wanted to see, how many troops would be able to resist the hundred armies on the western side of the Sky Flame Continent.
After the old emperor left, Shui Ji did nothing. She sat in her room, quietly waiting for news of the Hundred Venomous Sky Flame's declaration of war. However, the old emperor didn't immediately issue a declaration of war. Instead, he went to see Han Yu'er. He had to figure out whether it was because of her, or whether she had colluded with Sky Flame! He did not want to wrongly accuse Fei Fei, and even more so, he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble by killing her family!
As soon as the old emperor saw Han Yu'er, he immediately asked if Madame Su and Jun Jiuchen had colluded. Was she slandered?
Han Yu'er looked confused. "What?"
The old emperor said coldly, "Stop playing the fool with me! We have plenty of ways to make you speak the truth! "
Han Yu'er still didn't understand. She was only here on the orders of her godmother to help Empress Liu obtain her throne. It was true that she was slandered, but she was willing! As for her foster mother colluding with Jun Jiuchen …
Han Yu'er suddenly burst out laughing as she thought about it, "What a joke!" "Hahaha, this is the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life!"
The old emperor looked at her coldly, thinking about what she had said to Shui Ji. The old emperor was unable to determine who was lying. In the end, he bluffed Han Yu'er and said, "Someone has already given me the evidence. "It's fine if you're not speaking the truth. Before I sent my troops to Sky Flame, I used you as a sacrifice to warn Han Family Castle!"
Han Yu'er wasn't bluffing at all. She lied that she had been forced to assassinate him because of his wife, and had always hoped that the old emperor would stop torturing her on behalf of his godmother. He had always been waiting for his godmother to come and save her. Now that even her foster mother was suspected, how could she not be anxious?
She would never believe that her foster mother and Jun Jiuchen were colluding. She firmly believed that someone had slandered her. As she thought about it, she couldn't think of anyone else besides Empress Liu. She thought, Empress Liu must have been afraid that I would be exposed, that she would make the first move and force my way out of my mouth, while slandering my foster mother.
What should he do?
Han Yu'er no longer hesitated and blurted out, "Your majesty, unjustly accused!" My foster mother didn't collude with King Jing, this matter … This was something Empress Liu ordered me to do! I have proof, a lot of evidence! "
