Everything had happened too suddenly, and Dongfang Cunming was not mentally prepared. Even though he had been sitting in the side hall for a long time, he still had not recovered his wits. The blood on his hands had been wiped clean, and he was still using the best cream. However, for some reason, he felt that he couldn't get rid of the smell of blood in that hand. When he thought of how Zhao Jing had used Sunflower Dew for the first time and how he … After personally receiving the initial tides from her, Dongfang Cunming's entire being was no longer in a good mood.

"Master?" Zhou Zhizi called out softly, subconsciously swallowing a mouthful of saliva, "Are you okay?"

Dongfang Wenming rolled his eyes. "Does it look like nothing happened to This King?"

Doesn't look like it!

Zhou Zhizi bitterly straightened his body, "Actually, no one would have expected such a thing to happen. Fortunately, this master realized that if it was anyone else, they might have gotten into big trouble. Actually, this kind of thing was unavoidable. In the end, the Emperor … There will always come a day like this! "

Dongfang Bu was obviously very agitated. He stood up and stared at his hand for a while, then anxiously paced around the side hall.

Zhou Zhizhi had never seen Dongfang Wenming look so angry before. It was not like he was angry, but more like he was at a loss for what to do. Thus, he frowned as he watched his master sway back and forth in front of him. He did not stop even after swaying back and forth eight hundred times. Zhou thought, "How long are we going to hang around for?"

Suddenly, as if Dongfang Wenming felt something, he turned around and stared at Zhou Zhiqian.

It can't be? You can even hear this?

"What about Qi Rufeng?" Dongfang Wenming asked.

Zhou Zhizi heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, "Reporting to Master, as the eldest son of the Qi Family avoided three days of torture for the violent corpse, he directly threw it into the cemetery. No one would dare to take the corpse of a criminal. As for Qi Rufeng's remaining members, those who were involved in the conspiracy were all taken down, excluding the nine clans. The man shall behead the woman as his prostitute, exiled as a child, and shall not return to the capital for all eternity, and shall not be accepted as an official for generations to come! "

Dongfang Wenming nodded without any objections.

"Master, now that something like this has happened, I guess it won't be long before this Qi family …" Zhou Zhizhi hesitated, "There should be some movement, right?"

"Isn't the Prime Minister's residence still hanging in the air?" Dongfang Buming stepped out.

Wei Shuge had just come out of the sleeping quarters with dirty clothes in her arms. When she saw that the east was still unclear, she couldn't help but laugh inside. However, he couldn't smile on the surface, lest this Dongfang Wenming become angry out of embarrassment.

Gan Tang walked up to him with a numb expression, "Master, everything has been taken care of. No one will notice if you meditate during this period!"

When he heard this, Dongfang Wenming's cold gaze fell on Wei Shuge.

"Don't go away!" Dongfang Wenming left behind a few words before he stepped into the sleeping quarters.

Wei Shuge hugged the basin tightly. Inside the basin were the bloodstained clothes. Before coming out, Zhao Jing had warned her that she must pretend that nothing had happened. Otherwise, if she continued to be suspicious, Wei Shuge would definitely die.

At this moment, Zhao Jing drank a bowl of ginger tea and wrapped himself in a thick blanket. Seeing Dongfang Wenming enter, Zhao Jing held onto the fire cage and looked up at him with a wronged expression.

Dongfang Wenming looked at her. He felt like his mind was filled with the scene where he was going to grab her initial blood. After sighing helplessly, Dongfang Wenming held his forehead and said, "Fortunately, it's only a matter of the daughter's family. It's best if nothing happens!"

Upon hearing these words, Zhao Jing's face reddened. It was as if the fire cage in his arms was too hot, causing him to feel bloated. Zhao Jing pursed his lips, not daring to look directly into the direction of the darkness. He was so flustered that he didn't know where he was looking. "I don't know what it is. I just think it's because I'm in bad shape." Who would have thought that it would be her daughter's Sunflower Water? I hope you don't take Father Zhong's worries to heart. "

Dongfang Wenming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and finally raised his head to look at her, "Since you have experienced it for the first time, I believe you will be able to handle it for yourself in the future! Today, this humble subject will help the Emperor clean up everyone within and outside the palace.

Zhao Jing's eyebrows jumped as he held the fire cage so tightly that his fingertips were scorched. Her breathing quickened as she began to panic in her heart. In regards to the matter of a girl, Dongfang Mingyue definitely would not compromise, so … Wei Shuge was dead for sure?

"Shuge followed me for two years. Within these two years, even a fool would understand my identity." Zhao Jing's voice was calm. "If she wanted to betray me, she wouldn't have to wait until today. Today, I don't need to come and help Gan Tang deal with this matter!"

"Just a servant, is there a need for you to worry so much?" Dongfang Wenming narrowed his eyes.

Zhao Jing frowned. "After you kill Wei Shuge, look at who you've sent to me." "I must not only preserve my identity as a woman, but also allow me to use them conveniently. The most important thing is that I must be loyal." Their gazes met, and a resolute look appeared in her eyes. "I'm afraid that it will be very difficult for Father Zhong to find another servant like him!"

There were many deathsworn by Dongfang Wenming's side. However, in order to satisfy the first two conditions, he had to be smart enough. Anything could happen in this palace, so he had to adapt to the cold! Wei Shuge had followed Zhao Jing for two years. Just as Zhao Jing had said, it was impossible for her not to notice Zhao Jing's identity as a girl.

Dongfang Wenming had also noticed it earlier. When Wei Shuge came out, her expression was as calm as usual without the slightest bit of panic. Either Wei Shuge already knew Zhao Jing's identity, or … This person was extremely shrewd. Regardless of which one it was, it wasn't enough for Dongfang Zexuan to worry about even with Zhao Jing by his side. Zhao Jingyuan was a restless person. If he had a restless servant by his side, Dongfang Wenming didn't know whether or not he would be able to control everything in the future.

However, at the moment, Dongfang Wenming couldn't find anyone who could replace Wei Shuge!

"Father Zhong also knows that I have grown up. There are some things that I really need someone to help me with." At the very most, she is a wooden person. Her martial arts can protect my safety and help Father Zhong spread the news, but it is impossible for her to help me live a safe and sound life in this palace. Furthermore, she is incapable of helping me hide from the officials and the people of the world! "

Dongfang Wenming let out a sigh of relief. "Back then, you wanted to keep Zhao Yuannan. Now, you want to keep Wei Shuge. I hope you won't regret this one day!" He paused for a moment, and stared at her with a profound look in his eyes, "I hope that this humble subject will not regret this one day!"

Zhao Jing's smile was as harmless as that of a child's. His small face was white and tender, with a bit of light pink. In the dim light, it seemed especially innocent. She watched as he sat down on the edge of her bed. Then, he reached out his hand and slowly placed it on her lower abdomen.

This process seemed to be very slow. The slow movement flowed between the two of them, and the moment he stretched out his hand, her heart had already reached her throat. He could clearly see her smile suddenly stiffen, and her body slightly straightened up. She only slowly exhaled when his palm was in her lower abdomen.

"It hurts here?" Dongfang Wenming asked.

Zhao Jing nodded.

"Does it still hurt?" he asked again.

Zhao Jing shook her head. The warmth from his palm seemed to be able to penetrate through everything. It entered her heart from her lower abdomen, causing her heart to palpitate uncontrollably. When he asked the question, the warmth of his breath was in her ears, burning them.

His heart thumping, Zhao Jing's breathing quickened. "It's … it's good …" She bit her lip, her eyes somewhat frantic. "Father Zhong has already lived for so long, yet he doesn't even know about the matters of his daughter's family. Does this mean that Father Zhong should be married?"

Originally, Dongfang Wenming had only been joking around with him. But now, his expression suddenly changed and he stood up. "This isn't a matter that the Emperor should interfere in!" As his voice faded, he actually left with a sullen expression on his face.

Zhao Jing gawked. This person was truly temperamental. He turned hostile just because he said so?! Zhao Jing lowered his head and looked at his fingers, which were burning red from the fire cage. He carelessly stroked his belly. He didn't know why, but his heart felt stuffy and an indescribable feeling welled up within it, lingering on for a long time.

"Your majesty?" Zhao Yuannan hurriedly entered, "Are you feeling better? The Regent had sealed off the entire Qian Yuan Palace, and had swapped out all the servants inside and out! "Just now, even Shuge was taken away, I don't know …"

"Shuge will be fine!" Zhao Jing's expression sank. "Dongfang Wenming will not touch her for now."

Zhao Yuannan nodded as he carefully examined Zhao Jing's pale face. "Did the emperor's angina pectoris attack?"

"En!" Zhao Jing replied, unwilling to explain any further. "I'm fine, and the reason why I'm not in the East is because I'm worried about the safety of the Palace. I'm afraid that these imperial guards are mixed with the remnants of Qi Rufeng's army, so I take advantage of this opportunity to control the security of the Imperial Palace. At a time like this, we can do what he can. Elder brother Nan, you … Do you understand what I mean? "

"Servant …" "Understood!" Zhao Yuannan was enlightened.

"It's blood exchange anyway. It doesn't matter whose blood it is!" As Zhao Jing spoke, he subconsciously tightened his blanket. "Keep an eye on the imperial government. I'm worried that the Qi Clan will not let this matter rest!"

"Tactics of usurping the throne, the crime should be ten thousand deaths!" Zhao Yuannan gritted his teeth.

Zhao Jing shook his head. "If the Qi family had been able to move in the east, they wouldn't have waited until now." He didn't dare to move because he couldn't, and I couldn't move either. The moment I move, I'll be a knife in someone else's hand. I can only hold my weapons! "I've been feeling unwell these few days, watch out!"

"Yes sir!" Zhao Yuannan nodded.

Therefore, Zhao Jing had spent the past few days peacefully taking care of his illness. The only ones who wouldn't step out of the door were Gan Tang and Wei Shuge. After the matter was cleaned up, Zhao Jing let out a sigh of relief. Wei Shuge, on the other hand, had a troubled expression on her face.

"The emperor came here with sunflower water, in the future …" Wei Shuge pursed her lips and said, "The characteristics on her body will become more and more obvious. I'm afraid that she won't be able to hide it for long."

"We can talk about the future later, but first, we have to take care of the present." Zhao Jing stretched lazily. The feeling of this thing on his body was truly vexing. If it wasn't his waist and knees that felt sore, it was just that the tides were unbearably uncomfortable. Now that it was gone, he felt completely refreshed. "Today is the day that the rebel faction will behead their enemies at the entrance to the Caishikou [1]?"

Wei Shuge nodded. "Yes!"

"The Prime Minister's estate has been quiet all this time?" Zhao Jing was in high spirits.

"Not yet!" Wei Shuge hesitated for a moment, "I think we'll have to wait for this matter to pass before this cowardly turtle would dare to poke his head out. "Right now, we are still at the heart of the struggle. How many people are waiting for that blade to land at the entrance of the marketplace?!"

Zhao Jing held his hands behind his back and walked outside. "I am going out of the palace to take a look!"

"Today, the palace is filled with the eyes and ears of the Regent's estate. I'm afraid it won't be easy for the Emperor to leave the palace." Wei Shuge quickly followed.

Zhao Jing stood in the courtyard as he spoke to the imperial bodyguard, Li Yiheng. "Pick a few flexible men and follow me out of the palace. I want to make a trip to the Prime Minister's Estate and pay a personal visit to the Prime Minister!" Saying that, he turned around and glanced at Zhao Yuannan, "Go and prepare something, I can't go empty-handed!"

"Your servant obeys the decree!" Zhao Yuannan bowed and quickly left.

Wei Shuge smiled in her heart. She knew that the Emperor was going to the Prime Minister's Estate and that Dongfang Wenming would not stop him.

However, in the next moment, Wei Shuge's smile froze on her face. This was …
