Except for me, all my enemies have been reborn.

The three of them parted unhappily at the gate of the prime minister's residence and went home.

The Imperial Master’s Residence, Yunju Courtyard.

Yunze curled up in the study room lifelessly, holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand.

The content of this note is the secret that he is most reluctant to mention now.

It is also the most serious trauma in his heart, and he doesn't want to think about that heart-wrenching pain again.

In his previous life, he was proud of this secret and thought he was the luckiest man in the world.

Thinking about it now, it is very ironic that the people we trust the most are often the ones who hurt us the most.

"Sir, it's time to take today's medicine." The servant outside the door held the medicine and only dared to knock on the door gently.

Hearing the servant knocking on the door, Yunze tidied his appearance and returned to his usual immortal appearance.

"come in."

It's time to take medicine again. Although Yunze hates the bitter taste of medicine, he will find it difficult to fall asleep without drinking this calming soup.

He drank the calming soup in one gulp, handed the bowl to the attendant, and waved him to leave.

After the servants left, he poured a few cups of tea to wash away the bitter taste in his mouth.

But no matter how much I cry, it can't compare to the pain in my heart.

Yunze opened the note and took a look at it, then crumpled it into a ball.

Finally, he threw the already torn note into the fire and burned it to ashes.

He lay on the table close to the calming incense, rested for a while, then stood up and left the Imperial Master's Mansion, although he was very reluctant.

But it was not a good time to alert the enemy now. He still had to obey them and complete what was instructed on the note.

The dark night conceals the beasts that are ready to move, and a big drama is about to begin.

The Queen's birthday banquet was held grandly. The Emperor was very pleased and issued a general amnesty to show his great grace.

The Queen is the mother of a country, so her birthday banquet is very complicated.

Originally, only the princes and nobles were required to come to congratulate, but the emperor, in order to show his spirit of sharing joy with the people,

Officials of the fourth rank and above were allowed to attend the dinner.

Royal banquets did not allow servants to be brought along, so Shang Shixu got rid of Bai Wangshu who was reluctant to leave and went to the palace alone.

The journey was very lively. The capital city was prosperous but lifeless in the past.

Today is the Queen’s birthday, and ministers from various places come to the capital with their families, adding a lot of liveliness to the city.

Although most people cannot enter the palace to see the emperor, it is also very good to be at the feet of the emperor and feel the joy.

If I could get to know some important person, it would help pave the way for my future career in officialdom.

There were many young men and women wandering around the streets, looking for a good woman to take advantage of.

Shang Shixu stuck his head out of the carriage and received several seductive glances and bold kisses from both men and women. He was so scared that he immediately shrank back into the carriage.

The capital is more open than other places, but sometimes being too open is not a good thing.

Accidents are likely to happen when there are too many people around. Shang Shixu stroked his chest, feeling uneasy, as if something big was going to happen today.

Have a safe journey.

There were officials conducting body searches in front of the Meridian Gate to ensure the safety of the nobles in the palace.

Except for the palace guards, no one else was allowed to bring weapons into the palace.

Shang Shixu was doing a routine check when he felt some burning gazes coming towards him. He knew without a doubt that it must be them.

They hadn't even been reconciled for what happened the day before, yet they had the audacity to approach her.

Shang Shixu turned away with disdain. After all, this was the imperial palace, and it was not appropriate to argue with them.

The three men looked at Shang Shixu eagerly, and their hearts broke when they saw her turn away.

They must be angry about what happened yesterday. The three of them looked at each other, rolled their eyes, and blamed each other.

They didn't dare to go over, for fear of making Shang Shixu unhappy again.

But Jiang Huaixu couldn't do that. He had to go. They had discussed it before.

We divided the work and cooperated to protect the timing. At first, I was happy because I was assigned the task of following the timing.

Now it has become a happy torture. He quietly moved over and squeezed out the officials behind Shang Shiqi.

The official held a low position and dared not speak out, so he left in anger.

Shang Shixu looked at Jiang Huaixu's unreasonable and disgusting appearance and said sarcastically: "Master Jiang is really powerful.

He dares to bully people at will in the important palace. He is indeed a gentle and refined gentleman in the eyes of the world.

I can never do such a thing, I really admire you, sir."

Although Shang Shixu was telling the truth, Jiang Huaixu was still shocked.

I could only put on a flattering smile and think of saying something to save my image.

After checking the timing here, Shang immediately got up and left without any reluctance.

Jiang Huaixu wanted to go forward to arrest the person, but was stopped by the guards on duty.

"Please come for a routine check, sir."

The guard had a cold face and looked like someone who was not easy to mess with.

Shang Shixu's back was so close to him that he seemed able to touch it with his hand, but when he stretched out his hand, he only felt the guard's cold sword.

The fingertips felt painful and blood oozed out. Jiang Huaixu stared blankly at the finger that was cut by the sword.

He had seen such a resolute back figure in his previous life, but that back figure was no longer upright, but bent down weakly, without any life.

"Master Jiang, Master Jiang? Are you okay? Is your hand injured? You bold servant, kneel down and apologize!"

The guard knelt down and begged for mercy with despair.

Jiang Huaixu came back to his senses and waved his hand: "It's okay, get up and check for me quickly."

Shang Shixu followed the eunuch who led the way to the banquet, and all the way was luxury.

The gorgeous palace lantern made of gold is burning someone's life.

Whose corpses are buried under the gorgeous flowers? The war in the northwest is tense. What has this seemingly wise emperor done?

Everyone in the palace had a smiling face, but Shang Shixu kept his head down, not wanting others to see the sadness in his eyes and to avoid gossip.

"Mr. Prime Minister, this is your seat. I will take my leave now."

Shang Shixu sat in her seat, looked up and put on a fake smile. She couldn't let herself be out of place here.

Looking around, the ministers were flattering each other, and when they saw him, they came forward with wine to curry his favor.

He was praised for his resourcefulness and was regarded as a rare close minister to the emperor.

But outsiders have rumors that Shang Shixu is a treacherous minister who can cover the sky with one hand and disregards the emperor and his subjects.

Now that he is praised as a close minister of the emperor, it sounds like deliberate sarcasm.

Being one thing in front of people and another behind their backs is a necessary survival skill for ministers like them.

Everyone complimented each other, and although it was false, it seemed peaceful.

When Yunze, Jiang Huaixu and Fang Chenglan came in, they scattered like birds and beasts.

They ran up to a few people to toast and started a new round of compliments.

After a long time, the emperor came with the elegant queen, followed by concubines, princes and princesses.

The emperor and empress sat on the upper seats holding hands, fully demonstrating their love for each other.

Everyone knelt down and shouted "Long live the emperor". The emperor was delighted and enjoyed the people's submission.

It is just unknown how many of them are truly submitting and how many want to kill the emperor.
