I am the villain amulet

When Prime Minister He saw this person, he was overjoyed, "Master Imperial Master, this matter is all thanks to you!"

"No, no, if it weren't for Prime Minister He, there wouldn't be a national teacher like me." Taoist Gu stroked his beard and smiled at Prime Minister He.

"How is the palace? Is everything going well?"

"Everything is under my control. His Majesty the Emperor has been taking the elixir of immortality for some time, and now he trusts me more and more." Taoist Gu picked up the teacup and drank it all, sighing "good tea".

Then he frowned again, "However, this Third Prince is not an easy person to deal with..."

Prime Minister He looked thoughtful: "Third Prince?"

"Yes, he is very cunning despite his young age." Taoist Gu stroked his beard and frowned. "We must deal with the third prince quickly, otherwise he will definitely be a stumbling block."

Prime Minister He pondered for a moment and then said, "Is there anything unusual about the Imperial Master's leaving the palace this time?" Prime Minister He remembered that Lord Yang was arrested and then sent a warning note. How could he forget about the Third Prince?

"Not really." Master Gu shook his head.

Prime Minister He was filled with thoughts, but then he thought, the Third Prince is just a young boy, and he probably wouldn't be so cunning.

But he would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let them go, so he called the head of the household to bring an item and hand it to Taoist Gu.

"Master, take this thing back." Prime Minister He slowly said under Master Gu's puzzled gaze, "Show this to that kid after we return to the palace and see what his expression is."

"You, spread the news outside that Lord Yang was demoted to the Southern Barbarians and died tragically on the road." Then he turned to the shadow guard and said.

"Yes"

Taoist Gu's eyebrows slightly turned, and then he nodded to Prime Minister He: "Prime Minister He is well-known!"

"Prime Minister He, wait for my news."

"Hahahaha, Imperial Master, if you succeed this time, you will be the eternal Imperial Master of our Nanyi Kingdom. By then, our Nanyi Kingdom will still need your support." Prime Minister He said ambitiously to Taoist Chaogu.

"Where where"

After saying goodbye to Prime Minister He, Master Gu got on the carriage that the Imperial Master used to use. As the carriage passed through the dark alley, a black shadow as fast as lightning flashed past the carriage, and the carriage continued to move forward.

A dark shadow silently crossed the street, passed over the treetops, and finally stopped in a forest.

As the moonlight passed over the treetops, two slender figures appeared in the woods.

The moonlight was dim and hazy. A dark figure appeared in the moonlight, with black hair tied up, an old face and a beard. If Prime Minister He was there, he would definitely recognize that this person was the Imperial Master who had just talked to him.

"Young Master, the Third Prince." The black shadow said to the two of them.

Gu Duo looked at it carefully and was amazed again: "Fan Chen, your disguise is becoming more and more realistic."

"The Third Prince is joking." Fan Chen shaved off his beard one by one, and then told Shen Yan the news he had obtained.

"In that case, why don't we take advantage of their strategy?" Gu Duo looked at Shen Yan, who had an expressionless face beside him.

Shen Yan nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Why don't we give He Cheng a chance?"

"Oh?" Gu Duo raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately became interested.

Shen Yan raised the corners of his lips, his eyes filled with ice: "If Prime Minister He accidentally discovered that the Third Prince was planning a 'rebellion', do you think he should take this opportunity?" After he finished speaking, he changed the subject and said: "Then we can catch them all in one fell swoop."

The moonlight was dim, and one could only vaguely see the moonlight passing across Shen Yan's brows. Although he was smiling, it did not reach his eyes, which were full of murderous intent.

Gu Duo nodded, then looked at Shen Yan seriously again: "Fortunately, I am not your enemy."

Shen Yan pursed his lips and smiled. "Third Prince, you are worrying too much."

"Only Rong Shu believed you, a wolf in human skin." Gu Duo didn't know whether he should sympathize with Rong Shu or be glad that she didn't know.

But when the person next to him heard this, his expression softened and the corners of his lips raised, "She will never know." His eyes were full of tenderness.

When Gu Duo saw this, he suddenly felt that what he had just said was redundant.

Whether he knows it or not, for Shen Yan, Rong Shu is the only person for whom he can give everything, including his life.

Fan Chen on the side also understood the Third Prince's thoughts deeply. What the cousin said was like an imperial decree, and anyone's words could be disobeyed except the cousin's.

"Master Fan Chen, the old Taoist priest, please be careful. In the next few days, you will disguise yourself as the old Taoist priest. After returning to the palace, think of a way to replace your father's elixir of immortality. You will need him to administer justice then!" Gu Duo looked up at the waning moon and said.

"Yes"

Shen Yan saw that it was getting late and this place was not a place to stay for long: "If there is nothing else, I will leave."

"Hey, wait..." Gu Duo saw Shen Yan about to leave and took out a bag of snacks from his sleeve. "When Rong Shu was little, she loved to eat these cakes every time she went back to the palace." He formed the habit of bringing these cakes for her every time he left the palace.

Then he continued, "Didn't Miss Luo save my life a few days ago..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Yan took the cake and said, "Okay."

Gu Duo was left alone, wondering why he was so straightforward today.

----

The winter wind blew with a biting chill. Shen Yan came in with a gust of cold air, "My cousin is here."

Shen Yan looked around the room and saw that his cousin was nowhere to be seen. He took off his cloak and asked, "Well, where's the young lady?"

Yuque quickly took the cloak and said, "The young lady is in the study."

Shen Yan nodded and walked towards the study. When he entered the study, he saw Rong Shu lying on the table, writing something.

"You're here?" He raised his head as if he heard footsteps.

"What is my cousin writing?"

"I just wanted to write when I had nothing to do. Why did you come so early today?" Rong Shu saw Shen Yan standing beside her and grinding ink for her.

Shen Yan said casually: "The Third Prince brought your favorite cakes from the palace, and asked Miss Luo how she is doing these days?"

"Ah?" Rong Shu's eyebrows curved with joy when he heard it, and the smile on his lips could not be concealed, "The weather will be very good tomorrow. I haven't seen you for a few days. I think Qingyi misses me too."

After Rong Shu finished speaking, she looked at Shen Yan and smiled. If she was a matchmaker, she would definitely be a competent matchmaker.

"Cousin, do you still remember those words I taught you?" Rong Shu suddenly remembered that he had spent the longest time with him in this world, so naturally he always asked him to practice calligraphy.

He was quite well-behaved and did whatever he was told.

Shen Yan nodded and saw the word "Yan" written on the paper that his cousin spread out.

However, the handwriting was not very neat, and then I heard my cousin's voice in my ear: "I have been curious recently. If I can write with both hands like Xiaoyan, would I be very powerful?" Rong Shu's eyes were full of envy and admiration.

Shen Yan laughed, and his magnetic and pleasant voice spread.

Rong Shu glanced at him. What's so funny about that?

"Copy these words a dozen times," Rong Shu pointed to another piece of paper with the words 'harmony, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness' written on it.

Shen Yan nodded helplessly, and then it turned into Rong Shu grinding ink.

The next morning, news came from the palace that the Emperor was critically ill. The sky was covered with dark clouds, showing signs of a changing weather.
