Except for me, all my enemies have been reborn.

Chapter 3 A special way of atonement

Even if Shang Shixu avoided a few people, he would always run into them during court sessions.

Those people always laughed and said it was a coincidence, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were the ones following quietly from behind.

When they were discovered, they said it was a coincidence, and they were still asking for more.

One of them was fanning her with a fan, one was holding a kettle and asking her if she was thirsty, and the other one was looking at him pitifully, as if wanting to get more of her attention.

They were really crazy, they really sent her all the way back home, and finally handed her the sweet-scented osmanthus cake they bought in the north of the city early in the morning.

Shang Shixu suspected that the cakes were poisonous and refused many times, but the three men refused to give up.

Shang Shixu frowned. They thought they were stupid enough to eat something sent by their mortal enemy.

He took the cake with disgust, threw it away in front of them, and stepped on it in a nasty way.

I only heard a snapping sound, as if something broke. It turned out to be the hearts of these three men.

They looked at Shang Shixu's resolute back pitifully, wiped their tears, and decided to try again.

Since then, the three people rarely came to bother Shang Shixu again, which made Shang Shixu very satisfied. The annoying people finally gave up.

But no one would have expected that they disappeared for a day to replace better things.

The fans became bigger, the wind was cooler, and they even came with a bowl of ice.

The clear water was also replaced with sweet fruit juice, only the osmanthus cake remained unchanged, which has always been Shang Shixu's favorite.

Every time they went out, there was a big fuss and it attracted a lot of attention. Shang Shixu couldn't stand it anymore and scolded them.

The men ran to the corner behind and followed quietly, feeling aggrieved.

This made Shang Shixu very uneasy, and he was always afraid that someone would attack him from behind.

She could never figure out why these people were so humble and flattering. There must be a bigger conspiracy waiting for her.

Only by staying vigilant at all times can you survive in this cannibalistic world.

That day, Shang Shixu was summoned by the emperor alone, and he immediately followed the eunuch who summoned him and left.

The three men were left frantically searching for her.

Inside the Yangxin Hall.

"My dear Shang, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Someone please give me a seat."

Shang Shixu saluted respectfully and did not let his guard down because of the emperor's sudden enthusiasm.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. To show respect, I will just stand. What is the matter that Your Majesty has summoned me for?"

The emperor saw that Shang Shixu did not accept his polite words and simply got straight to the point: "My dear Shang, do you still remember the suggestions you made some time ago on the safety of maritime trade?

I went back and thought about it, and I think it's a good idea. I asked you to come here today because I want you to tell me everything in full.

However, whether or not you can use it is still subject to the old rules. I think you should understand. "

Shang Shixu understood clearly that this dog emperor often did this, wasn't he just trying to get a certain prince or princess to share a piece of the pie?

Anyway, it's not the first or second time. Every time, because of the interests of the people, he only dared to dig a small hole and wait for the emperor to jump in and make a fool of himself.

But just because the hole was too small, it was filled by that bastard Fang Chenglan. Every time it happened, Shang Shixu felt his headache coming back.

I had to deal with the emperor and quickly leave this terrible place.

"Your Majesty, I understand. I will let Your Majesty handle it."

"Hahahahahahahaha, good, Lord Shang is worthy of being my trusted and close minister.

Just do as you say. If there is nothing else, you can leave. I am tired too."

"My minister retire."

The dog emperor is really good at putting on a show. His so-called trusted and near ministers should be his biggest concern.

Shang Shixu came out of the Yangxin Palace, cursing the dog emperor in his heart.

When passing by Qianli Lake, he was almost pushed into the lake.

Because those three men often followed her secretly, she had been extra vigilant these days.

Now that he was attacked from behind, he quickly caught the murderer, but he didn't expect that it was the Fourth Princess herself.

"Fourth Princess, I wonder how I have offended you that you want me to kill you personally."

"How dare you! You've hurt me, why don't you let me go? There's no one around, so if I want to push you down, you have to go down."

"Your Highness is really arrogant and domineering, but you are right. There is no one around. Even if the princess fell, no one saw her."

Li Yuyan's eyes widened, looking as ridiculous as a toad. She was so angry that she wanted to attack Shang Shixu.

However, Shang Shixu stopped her and threw her into the water. There was no one around, so the princess fell into the water by herself.

Sometimes the rumors outside are quite true. She really doesn't care about the hierarchy between the emperor and his subjects when discussing the order of things.

Shang Shixu, who had already arrived home, was enjoying an osmanthus cake when he heard a spy report that the princess had fallen into the water and was unconscious. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

"Oh, what can the dog emperor find out? Okay, you can go down."

"Yes, I am resigning."

Shang Shixu happily ate a few more pieces of osmanthus cake.

The dog emperor instigated his daughter to attack her, so he transferred all the people away in advance.

Who could have thought that the stupid daughter of the dog emperor would overestimate her own abilities and do it herself?

Although Shang Shixu was only a civil official, he was still much stronger than the spoiled princesses in the palace.

By the way, the Queen's birthday banquet is coming soon, so I should prepare a decent gift to prevent the dog emperor from making trouble again.

Moreover, the queen was always gentle and kind, and Shang Shixu had a good impression of her.

After much thought, I decided to go to Bugui Mountain to look for some precious medicinal herbs.

It just so happened that she was also looking for thousand-year-old ginseng for her aunt, and by the way, she also found the Queen's birthday gift.

Shang Shixu immediately got up and headed for the Bugui Mountain.

At the same time, Yunze received news that Shang Shixu was safe while rushing to Qianli Lake.

Only then did I feel relieved. Although I don't know why it was the fourth princess who fell into the water in this life, as long as the timing is okay, it's fine.

There were many imperial doctors coming and going in Concubine Wang's palace. The emperor was furious and scolded them for being useless.

Concubine Wang held the fourth princess's hand and burst into tears.

After a lot of effort, the Fourth Princess finally woke up. Everyone in the Imperial Hospital breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her head was finally saved.

As soon as the fourth princess woke up, she cried towards the emperor, as if she wanted to say something.

But under the emperor's warning look, she chose to shut up, but cried even harder.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly, which was so disturbing that the emperor could not bear it anymore and left angrily.

As soon as he left, the crying in the palace became louder.

The emperor's face was twisted with anger, completely different from his usual amiable appearance. The servants around him knelt on the ground, trembling and not daring to look up.

Shang Shixu, you have broken the impasse, but on the day of the Queen's birthday banquet,

I will make you fall flat on your face so that you will learn your lesson. But don't forget what you said about the distinction between the ruler and his subjects.

You can't escape from my grasp. Sooner or later,

Yunze, Jiang Huaixu and Fang Chenglan, these three idiots will team up to kill you, and I will just sit back and wait for the benefits.
