Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

After the palace banquet, the old emperor fell into a coma. The imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau went in and out of the emperor's bedroom. Everyone had a sad look on their face, as if announcing to the world that this emperor who once held great power would not live long.

The old emperor had few children. In his early years, there were internal strife in the harem, concubines fighting, and princes died or were disabled. Now, apart from the incompetent crown prince, there is only a young sixth prince who is a male who can inherit the throne.

During the old emperor's coma, all affairs were handled by the seal holder Xue Shenyi.

At the same time, with the old emperor falling into a coma, the forces that have been hidden in the imperial city for a long time are ready to move.

On the fifth day after the old emperor fell into a coma, news came from outside the palace that Crown Prince Xuanyuan Langche had died of a sudden illness, causing an uproar in the court.

In the main hall, Xue Shenyi, wearing a black wide-sleeved python robe and a three-peaked hat, sat on the right side of the dragon throne, while Prime Minister Ji Feiyue sat on the left side of the dragon throne.

There was silence in the court, and no one dared to speak first.

"From what I have seen, there are still many suspicious points regarding the Crown Prince's sudden death. Please order a thorough investigation, Prime Minister!"

"I implore you to conduct a thorough investigation!"

"I request to play!"

"minister……"

No one knew who started this conversation first, but more than half of the civil and military officials in the court knelt down, and their words were directed at Xue Shenyi.

Ji Feiyue's eyes fell on Xue Shenyi, and her voice was cold: "What does Master Xue think?"

"..."

The person he called held his head up with a lazy posture, and upon hearing his words, he casually crossed one leg over the other, as if he was not in the morning court, but in his bedroom where he was resting.

Ji Feiyue's face suddenly turned gloomy.

Xue Shenyi tapped his left temple with his fingers and said slowly: "Of course we need to investigate. The prince had a kind personality, but he died suddenly for no reason. God is really blind! It's a pity for the prince to die young!"

His voice was exaggerated and his tone was tearful, but there was a bright smile on his face and in his eyes, which exuded a chilling feeling of fear.

And look at the adjectives Xue Shenyi used to describe Crown Prince Xuanyuan Langche.

He had a kind nature and died young.

Apart from his early death, what else has anything to do with him?

He bullies men and women and is arrogant, extravagant and licentious.

Only a bastard like Xue Shenyi, who can peel off a person's skin with his bare hands, thinks he deserves the description of "good character".

Ji Feiyue: "Since the seal holder has no objection to this matter, I will order someone to investigate it carefully."

Xue Shenyi nodded: "In that case, our men are still idle, why not help the Prime Minister?"

Ji Feiyue said with a fake smile: "No need to trouble Master Xue, my subordinates are all scholars."

"What? Prime Minister, do you think it's embarrassing for our subordinates to follow you, as they are all eunuchs?" Xue Shenyi asked with a raised eyebrow.

Ji Feiyue: "..." What do you think?

Moreover, regarding the sudden and inexplicable death of the prince, it is obvious who is the greater suspect. Don't you have any idea about it?

Of course, Ji Feiyue couldn't say this.

Ji Feiyue: "Master Xue is worrying too much. This is not what I meant. I believe that with the help of Master Xue's subordinates, the truth will soon come to light."

—

"Awake?" Xue Shenyi put the three-peaked hat in Zhong Fan's hand and asked in surprise.

Zhong Fan nodded and said, "But His Majesty was only awake for a short while. After hearing about the sudden death of the crown prince, he fainted again soon after."

Xue Shenyi rubbed the ring on his thumb: "Has anyone been in during this period?"

"Master, don't worry. No one else has entered here except the doctors from the Imperial Hospital."

Xue Shenyi nodded.

He knew the medicine in the old emperor's body very well. Once the poison took effect at the right time, his life would enter a countdown.

Every increase in the time of awakening represents the loss of his life.

Until he passed down the imperial edict that Xue Shenyi wanted.

Zhong Fan glanced at Xue Shenyi's back, hesitant to speak, and Xue Shenyi spoke as if he had expected it: "If you have anything else, just say it."

"The Sixth Prince has been clamoring to see you."

Xuanyuan Mingyuan was a simple-minded person. Now, he has encountered a sudden change. The emperor is in a coma and the prince has died suddenly. Now all the civil and military officials in the court believe that this matter is closely related to Xue Shenyi. It seems that the little prince is also confused, so he has been clamoring to see Xue Shenyi.

Zhong Fan hadn't received a reply from Xue Shenyi for a long time, and his heart was beating fast. He couldn't help but say, "The Sixth Prince is young and easily provoked. You shouldn't take it to heart, Master Seal."

"He's not wrong."

Xue Shenyi said calmly: "It was indeed me who poisoned the old emperor."

Zhong Fan said anxiously: "But that's also because..."

"Well, before everything is over, when the Sixth Prince comes to see me, just tell him that I have something to do."

"yes."

—

into the night.

Pei Yu poked the ornament on the bedside with his fingertips: "Since Master Xue is here, why are you hiding?"

He lay on his side with his head supported by his hands, and the loose sleeves of his pajamas slipped down, revealing his white arms.

There was a creaking sound in the air, and Pei Yu's eyes went dark as he found himself covered by a hand.

He felt his waist tighten and he was pulled into the other person's arms, with hot breath spraying on his ear.

Pei Yu did not struggle. He put his hand on the other person's hand around his waist and hid his head in the other person's arms.

This was a hug for cuddling, and Xue Shenyi could hold Pei Yu completely in his arms.

Xue Shenyi's heart softened, and he lowered his eyes to look at the person in his arms in the moonlight.

Only a small part of the chin was exposed under the palm of the hand. Pei Yu's lips were a little thin, and the color was bright red.

Xue Shenyi's Adam's apple rolled twice.

Looks soft and kissable.

I don’t know if it’s soft when kissed.

Pei Yu could not see his movements, but he seemed to see through Xue Shenyi's palm the evil intention hidden under his jade face.

Beneath the skin, there is a fire burning fiercely.

Pei Yu pinched Xue Shenyi's palm with his fingertips, and the sound rang out clearly in the night.

"Master, do you want to befriend me?"

Pei Yu's palm was slightly colder, and it caused Xue Shenyi to shiver when it touched his skin.

Xue Shenyi stared at Pei Yu and said in a hoarse voice, "My queen, please stop tempting me."

Then Xue Shenyi heard a chuckle coming out of Pei Yu's voice. It was neither soft nor delicate, but hoarse and seductive. Xue Shenyi's back soon felt like it was on fire.

He heard Pei Yu's voice that sounded like resentment and laughter in his ears: "The palm seal is so unreasonable. It was you who climbed onto my bed. How come I am the one who seduced you?"

Pei Yu moved forward again, and his body, wearing only pajamas, pressed tightly against Xue Shenyi's, and his hot body temperature rose rapidly.

Xue Shenyi felt the blood in his body boiling and surging. He tried to get up in panic, but his eyes became blurry and his body suddenly sank.

How did you break free?

Before Xue Shenyi could speak, he saw Pei Yu's wide-open pajamas revealing her fair and smooth skin, which was flat from the beautiful collarbone to the downward lines.

A clear and pleasant voice sounded in Xue Shenyi's ears, familiar yet strange.

"Master, can you kiss me like this?"
