After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

After venting his anger, the King of Xiang slowly calmed down. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. Then he opened his eyes, pointed at a guard, and ordered, "Go, call out Shi Yi and the staff in the guest house."

The guard responded respectfully and left.

"As for you..." The King of Xiang put one hand behind his back, and swept his sharp eyes over the other guards. He said in a cold tone: "This king will give you a chance to redeem yourself from your crime. A very precious and rare book was lost in my study. You can go to the backyard and look for it to see which ignorant person stole it."

"If you still can't find it by tomorrow, you can forget about your heads."

The guards looked serious, answered "yes" in unison, and rushed to leave the study.

Soon, Prince Xiang was the only one left in the study.

Until this moment, he seemed to have lost all his energy, fell back into the armchair, raised his hand to rub his slightly aching forehead, closed his eyes, and asked habitually: "Shi Zhen, what do you think I should do now?"

The words came out, but there was no response for a long time.

Prince Xiang's movements were slightly hesitant, he slowly opened his eyes, subconsciously looked around him, and seeing that there was no one there, he remembered that Shi Zhen had been sent to the Ministry of Justice's prison by Fu Yutang himself.

His originally relaxed face turned livid again, and he couldn't help but kick the desk. However, he forgot that the desk was made of huanghuali wood, the hardest material, and after kicking it, the desk didn't move at all, but his toes were almost broken.

The pain from his foot made him gasp involuntarily, and he hated Fu Yutang who caused all this even more. He couldn't help but hold his foot and gritted his teeth and said, "Fu Yutang, I will never forgive you!"

At this moment, Shi Yi and a group of staff walked in.

Seeing the King of Xiang sitting behind the desk with a gloomy face and a distorted expression, Shi Yi was stunned for a moment, then he stepped forward, bowed, and asked first, "I wonder what instructions my foster father has for me to come here for?"

The King of Xiang did not answer immediately, but looked him up and down for a long time. After the pain in his feet subsided, he stood up, sighed, and showed a very sad expression, "Yier, Fu Yutang has captured your uncle Shi Zhen..."

"What?" Shi Yi opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief. If others looked closely, they would easily find that there was a hint of surprise in his surprise. He hurried forward and asked, "Is Atang really back? When did he come back?"

King Xiang: “…”

Is this the point? !

The point is that Shi Zhen was captured!

The King of Xiang took a deep breath, suppressed the curse that was about to burst out, and said to Shi Yi: "Yes, he is back. After learning that you handed over the evidence of his rebellion to me, he found a trumped-up charge and arrested your uncle Shi Zhen and put him in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, forcing me to hand over the evidence."

Shi Yi was stunned and blurted out: "Foster father, didn't you send the evidence to the palace?"

Why did Atang still ask him for evidence?

King Xiang: “…”

Are you stupid?

Is my focus the evidence? The focus is that Fu Yutang took revenge and arrested Shi Zhen! !

King Xiang felt a little tired, always feeling that his ideas were not in line with Shi Yi's.

Is this the trouble of being a genius?

I don’t know how Shi Zhen instigated him to rebel.

If he had known this day would come, he should have asked Shi Zhen for advice on how to communicate with ordinary people, so he wouldn't be at a loss now.

Ugh.

King Xiang sighed, Shi Zhen, I miss you. And——

As a genius, I am very sorry.

It's because he is too outstanding and his thoughts are too profound that the ordinary people in front of him cannot understand him, let alone keep up with him. I'm really sorry.
