Mind reading, I used the concubine system to become the empress

Lin Shu had been secretly observing Wang Tongfu since he appeared.

She was really curious about what kind of person could do such a cruel thing to her own son.

It is precisely because of this that his inner voice is exposed.

The emperor felt a little nauseous after hearing this.

How could there be such a shameless person in Dayan?

Old man Wang Tongfu never thought about what would happen if Wang Ran stayed at home and waited for him to come back.

Does he still have a chance to explain?

I'm afraid I'll be poisoned to death without knowing it.

The emperor sneered a few times and carried Lin Shu back into the house.

Wang Tongfu thought that the emperor's sneer was due to his dissatisfaction with his behavior today.

I felt a pang of regret.

He wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he tear down the road his son had paved for him?

He knelt on the ground, not daring to move, and kept calling for the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I was reckless and I am guilty."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was so reckless because I couldn't find my son."

"I am willing to make amends."

"I still have a lot of jade and antiques at home. I will send them to Your Majesty in two days. No, no, no, tomorrow."

Wang Tongfu slapped himself twice when he said this.

"Your Majesty, I made a mistake in my words because I was anxious."

"Send it to Lord Murong tomorrow so that he can appease the guards."

"It can be regarded as my apology."

The emperor raised his eyelids and deliberately showed some excitement and joy.

With a forced calm look, he said, "In this case, it depends on your sincerity, Tongfu."

After the emperor finished speaking, he sighed softly.

"But it's true that Di Lan contacted you. If there is no punishment, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop the gossips in the world."

Wang Tongfu's face froze, and then he showed a look of grievance and banged his head on the ground.

Shouting in grief.

"Your Majesty! That was Di Lan's plan to alienate us. I never agreed to it."

"I am already prepared to lose my son."

"Fortunately, your majesty has set up a dragnet to save my son's life."

"Let us be reunited as father and son."

The emperor looked at Wang Tongfu with a smile.

Wang Tongfu broke out in a cold sweat and didn't even dare to look up and meet the emperor's gaze.

After a long while, the emperor continued, "But you didn't refuse, did you?"

"Although General Mu did not directly refuse, he immediately took his servants to look for the thieves."

"But you, Wang Tongfu, didn't make any move at all."

"You didn't come to me either. Do you think your son is a worthless person and not worth your worry?"

"I still feel that I might be killed by those thieves, so I have to wait until the situation becomes clear before taking any action."

Wang Tongfu broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this.

From time to time he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Your Majesty, I am a citizen of Dayan. How could I do such a thing?"

"The loyalty of my Wang Tongfu is known to all."

When the emperor heard what Wang Tongfu said, he rolled his eyes in his heart.

This guy couldn't even hear Fubao's voice, yet he still claimed to be loyal.

It's his family that he is loyal to.

Lin Shu was even more direct and dry-heaved several times in a row.

[How can this person be so shameless, always flattering himself. ]

[If you really want to be loyal, you should find my father first. ]

[Even if I don't look for my father, I will sternly reject Di Lanren's request.]

[I did put it on in front of my dad.]

[It's really disgusting.]

The emperor quickly calmed Lin Shu down.

He glared at Wang Tongfu.

When Wang Tongfu saw that the emperor didn't believe what he said at all, he knew that punishment was inevitable.

He hung his head and rolled his eyes.

An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he immediately said, "It is my wish, Your Majesty."

"I wanted to inform Your Majesty at that time, but my brother stopped me."

"He said that Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he must have his own plans. He suggested that I wait and see what happens."

"Don't disrupt your majesty's plan! That's why I'm keeping quiet."

Lin Shu felt like slapping him twice after hearing this.

[Is this bastard the one who takes the blame? ]

[Since my son couldn't take the blame anymore, I asked my younger brother to take it.]

[As long as you can protect yourself, anyone can be used as a shield, right? ]

The emperor was so angry that he laughed at Wang Tongfu's remarks.

"Then should I thank your whole family for not coming out to disrupt my plans?"

When Wang Tongfu saw the emperor's appearance, he knelt on the ground and said he dared not.

The emperor snorted coldly.

"Then I'll see how you perform tomorrow. Let me see whether this is your idea or your brother's."

Then he waved at Wang Tongfu and told him to go away.

Wang Tongfu stood up tremblingly, and before leaving, he did not forget to ask the emperor one more question, "Your Majesty, is my son in the academy?"

The emperor was a little impatient, "Don't you know that your son is injured?"

"He's being treated. Once his condition stabilizes, we'll naturally send him back."

"Who do you think I am? Would I try to snatch your son from you?"

Wang Tongfu then retreated in embarrassment.

As he walked, he thought that he, a bastard, seemed to be quite favored by the emperor.

It seems that we should pay more attention to him in our daily lives. Who knows, if we encounter a similar situation again, we can ask him to help.

Lin Shu looked at Wang Tongfu's back with disdain.

She even made a face at his back.

[Humph, the bad guy is finally gone. ]

However, because of Lin Shu's gaze on Wang Tongfu, the emperor heard what that guy was thinking.

The emperor just felt disgusted. This guy really took advantage of others to the extreme.

After Wang Tongfu's figure completely disappeared, Murong Xun appeared from the back door with Wang Ran.

The emperor glanced at Wang Ran indifferently.

"Although Fubao was not injured this time, you still have to be punished."

The emperor looked at Murong Xun who was standing aside silently.

"As for the specific punishment, you and Mr. Meng should follow the academy rules."

After saying this, he took Lin Shu away.

When Wang Ran saw the emperor leave, he hesitated for a long time before asking.

"Just now I seemed to hear the princess and... my father's voice."

"Am I hallucinating?"

Murong Xun was a little surprised. He didn't expect Wang Ran to change his mindset so quickly.

He actually recognized the emperor and Lin Shu.

Is it because the emperor spoke for him?

Or is it simply because of Lin Shu that he has a good impression of the emperor?

He suddenly became curious.

Murong Xun curled the corners of his lips, "You seem to trust His Majesty very much?"

Wang Ran was a little uncomfortable with the sudden change of topic, but he still answered honestly.

"The princess's father must be a very good man."

"Besides, he just spoke for me. Not only can he save me from punishment, but he can also give me some status in the family."

"So I believe in your majesty."

Murong Xun smiled.

"In that case, don't tell anyone what you heard today."

"Especially the princess. You don't want her to be hesitant about anything in the future."

Although Wang Ran didn't quite understand, he still agreed.

He only knew that if this matter were known to others.

People like his father would not be willing to let Lin Shu live.

Even if they didn't dare to do it openly, they would use all kinds of underworld means in private to make Lin Shu die young.

He will definitely keep this matter to himself.
