The emperor still agreed to let the left prime minister take office. As the victor, Su Miao sat on the emperor's sedan chair and naturally wanted to show off his power in front of Xiao Yaoguang proudly.

A drop or two of rain had already fallen, and even though Xiao Yaoguang was kneeling, his back was as straight as a bamboo, which made Su Miao's mouth drop instantly.

There were traces of rain on his moon-white clothes, but he still looked so upright and dignified.

Su Miao glanced over, and Xiao Duzi immediately waved his hand to start the sedan chair moving. The sedan chair was carried in front of the Left Prime Minister by eight people.

The Nine Thousand Year Old Man sitting in the sedan chair did not look at the Left Prime Minister, but Su Miao knew that even in such an embarrassing situation, Xiao Yaoguang would not show an expression that was ungentlemanly.

A cold voice floated down from the sedan chair.

"Your Majesty has forgiven the Left Prime Minister. You must be careful with your words and actions in the future."

Xiao Duzi and others wanted to help Zuo Xiang up, but he dodged them.

In Su Miao's peripheral vision, the moon-white figure stood up by itself and knelt on the gravel road with a faint bloody color reflected on its knees.

Xiao Yaoguang stumbled only once, and still didn't ask anyone to help him. Su Miao clenched his palms and lowered his eyes, which were full of coldness and mockery.

The sedan chair swayed slightly because Xiao Yaoguang lost his balance and leaned on it.

Su Miao frowned and looked at him coldly. He wanted to see if the arrogant Left Prime Minister would ever show weakness.

The gentleman, who was dignified and self-possessed, spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"Xiaoguai, why don't you call me Wu Sanlang?"

The familiar name instantly reminded Su Miao of the past. He pursed his lips and angrily slapped Xiao Yaoguang.

"Snapped!"

The crisp sound made the Imperial Garden completely quiet. Xiao Yaoguang's voice was very low, and the palace people could only see that the Nine Thousand Year Old Man suddenly slapped the Left Prime Minister in a fit of moodiness.

He is the head of the civil servants and the future head of the Huainan Xiao family!

Xiao Duzi's heart trembled violently and he didn't dare to look at Zuo Xiang's expression.

It must be something that one must endure with humiliation and gnashing of teeth!

Su Miao was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and asked the sedan chair to leave quickly, leaving Xiao Yaoguang standing in the drizzle, with no clear expression on his face.

.

When Xiao Yaoguang returned home, he was soaking wet. His secret guards were horrified when they saw him.

"Sir, why did you return home in such a mess? Did that Nine Thousand Year Old Man bully you?"

They received news from the palace that the eunuch took advantage of the emperor's favor to humiliate the left prime minister in public.

Naturally they didn't believe it at first, because he was the Left Prime Minister, the most powerful person in the entire civil service group. With just one step, he could become the Left Prime Minister, second only to the emperor and above everyone else!

How dare that eunuch who uses his sexiness to seduce men do this?

Facts have proved that Su Miao is daring, and very daring.

The left prime minister looked in a miserable state. Not to mention the faint blood on his knees, there was a clear slap mark on his face.

The secret guard had been fond of the Left Prime Minister for a long time and admired his gentlemanly character, so he immediately started cursing.

"Eunuchs are a disaster to the country and the people. If they dare to humiliate the prime minister today, they will dare to kill court officials tomorrow! He has controlled the Jinyiwei and handled countless unjust cases. His hands are covered with blood!"

He thought of the letter from the palace and said anxiously:

"Left Prime Minister, we cannot let this eunuch continue like this. I heard that General Lu and the eunuch are in love with each other. Some people even said... the eunuch and Your Majesty..."

Before he could finish his words, he saw the cold look in the eyes of the left prime minister, whom he had always revered as a god.

The secret guard was startled and his heart almost jumped out. When he looked over again, there was only an even more indifferent and strong aura.

He trembled all over, and then he realized what he had said, how he had dared to speak about the general and his own majesty.

The Left Prime Minister is devoted to the country, so how could he tolerate such words and actions?

It was because he had a crush on Zuo Xiang that he went beyond his duty.

Under Xiao Yaoguang's oppressive gaze, the secret guard's white hair stood up.

After a while, he heard the cold voice of Zuo Xiang.

"You know what to say and what not to say."

"I heard that the Jinyiwei have a kind of punishment, which is to cut off the tongue of a person inch by inch, to punish those who speak nonsense behind their back."

"Tell me, if I give you to him, will he be happy?"

It is said that it was thought up by the Ninth Thousand Year Old Man. There are dozens of cruel punishments. Even if the death row soldiers enter the imperial prison, something can be dug out of their mouths.

The secret guard was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground in an instant. How could he forget that the entire capital city was full of nine thousand year old lackeys, and nothing he wanted to know could escape.

He was so worried about the Left Prime Minister that he started to speak without thinking.

He lay on the ground and kowtowed uncontrollably. He felt dizzy and all he could see was blood. He saw Zuo Xiang lightly touching the palm print on his face, the sound was barely audible.

"General...except for that..."

"The Regent is nothing to be afraid of."

As for the Right Prime Minister, Xiao Yaoguang had never taken him seriously, but today he was so close to Xiaoguai, he deserved to die.

The secret guard felt as if he had fallen into an abyss, his whole body stiff.

He had a terrible guess...

Could it be that the one that the Left Prime Minister covets is the stunningly beautiful but vicious eunuch...

Xiao Yaoguang's face is

The shadows are half light and half dark, obscure and unclear.

His extraordinary memory enabled him to be successful in the court. Now he used it to memorize Su Miao's every smile, whether happy or angry, and chew on the memories over and over again.

He has been doing this for the past few years.

This is the only way to ease my longing for Su Miao.

He is willing to beat me because he cares about me.

No one knew that he had already been Su Miao's

The corners of Xiao Yaoguang's mouth curled up into a faint smile that frightened his subordinates. The reserved and aloof Zuo Xiang looked as if he was in a state of demonic possession.

He convinced himself and put on his bright and handsome appearance again, but the secret guards who saw this scene were terrified.

The secret guard's body trembled unconsciously, as if he had fallen into the fangs of a poisonous snake.

Will someone who can see the true face of the Left Prime Minister...

The secret guard comforted himself, thinking that he had followed Zuo Xiang for so long, how could he be so ruthless.

But he really couldn't convince himself, because the next moment he fell to the ground, covering his bleeding neck.

What he saw before he died was Zuo Xiang's cold eyes that were devoid of any emotion, as if he was just an ant.

The assassins immediately packed up the body and took it away, while also cleaning the room and lighting incense.

They did all this very quietly, as everyone knew not to disturb Zuo Xiang while he was painting.

Xiao Yaoguang finished a picture in just half a moment. The person in the painting existed in his mind all the time, so his brushstrokes were naturally as divine as a god.

The gorgeous and cold beauty appeared on the paper, glaring at people angrily.

The beauty can be happy or angry, and her arrogant and vicious appearance is so vivid and breathtaking.

He looked at the wounds on his knees and scratched them expressionlessly, until blood flowed out.

The slender bamboo-like fingers were stained with blood and smeared on the lips of the person in the painting.

Like the finishing touch, the people in the painting seem to come alive.

There was a sneer on her face, and her red lips were dripping with tears.

Xiao Yaoguang hung this painting above the bed.

He seemed to be in a state of fascination, and called out in a fascinated voice:

"Little boy..."
