The Golden Imperial Concubine

Chapter 233 First appearance of murderous intent

The candlelight beats, leaving a little shadow on the already gray wall. Liu Xi carefully grinds the inkstone with strange spices, and the words written in that way will also emit a faint fragrance. Xia Di closed his eyes slightly, and there were several pieces of paper handed over to him by Murong Lingyue not long ago on the table, detailing how to solve the extra interest. Xia Di has seen it many times, but every time he sees it, his eyebrows will frown more nervously.

"Liu Xi, hold the lamp." Xia Di slowly got up and looked indescribably tired.

"I'm a slave, it's a heavy night. You have to be careful."

"You talk a little too much today."

"I obeyed."

The night is like water, and the silver glow pours out. The whole palace was coated with a faint silver layer, which looked particularly cold and quiet. The road to that secret room is always exceptionally long and also particularly heavy. The heavyness made Emperor Xia unable to breathe. There were too many secrets hidden there and too many secrets that he could not know. Once, as the monarch of a country, Emperor Xia felt that the supervisory court was the heaviest place, but now, he knows that the place where there is a dean makes people feel heavy and fearful.

Even if he knew that there was nothing the dean could do now, Emperor Xia still felt very uneasy. Among the four countries, only he, as the monarch of the State of Xia, knows this secret, because the president is in the State of Xia. At the same time, he also knew that once the dean's real secret is known by other countries, the whole world may fall into an unprecedented storm.

Pushing open the black iron door, Xia Di saw Su Rou sleeping on a dry haystack with a calm expression. Liu Ye, who stood aside, raised his head slightly and lowered his head, as if it did not exist.

"Come here so late, do you have anything to say?" Ling Yue slowly opened her eyes, and it seemed that she had not fallen asleep before.

Xia Di was a little surprised, and then sat down in a chair and looked at Su Rou with a condescending attitude: "You are really like her, and your way of doing things is also very similar."

"Murong Lingyue, hehe." Su Rou did not get up, but changed a more comfortable posture and put her hands behind her head. "Of course, she looks like me, which is an unquestionable fact."

"Hmm. Do you want to leave?" Xia Di said slowly, "If you want to leave, I will fulfill you."

"Leave? Where are you going? Su Rou said with a smile, "Being also, your Majesty, you must be asleep, otherwise how can you let me go?"

"If you really want to leave, who can stop you." Xia Di took a look at Liuye. Indeed, just as Xia Di belongs, if Su Rou wants to leave, no one can stop her unless she doesn't want to leave. "Where is that channel?"

"I don't know. If I knew, why would I stay in such a damn place?" Su Rou said, "I've been looking for so many years, but I haven't found it. If the emperor really wants to know, then ask Jiang Mozhu. He must know."

"Jiang Mozhu?"

"Yes, that's all I can say. As for whether he tells the emperor or not, it's beyond my control. However, at least one day I understand that the world you want to know is not so good.

"How can you know if you don't go and have a look?"

"Whatever you want, it's your business." Su Rou said, "It's a pity that you didn't get that art of war. But this is also expected. After all, things are no longer under my control.

"What will happen next?"

"The Jin Congress raised an army to attack the State of Song. At that time, the Shu Congress will stand by and watch, but the emperor can rest assured that the State of Xia will definitely win."

"Isn't there no way to predict it?"

"There is no way to predict the future, which is the truth. But it's okay to speculate on people's hearts. Su Rou said with a smile, "But all this is based on the six Tao three strategies you got, but now, this military method has been given to Jiang Mozhu, and I don't know what the result will be."

Xia Di took a deep breath and seemed to be thinking carefully about what Su Rou said. For a long time, Xia Di slowly said, "What do you think about the printing of silver tickets?"

"Very good, there is no Federal Reserve here. Your Majesty, you can rest assured that you can print more silver notes and inflation at most." Su Rou's smile became stronger and stronger. In the end, there was a sense of ridicule, "In terms of the world, you are not as good as Jiang Mozhu. In terms of business, you are not as good as me or Ling Yue. Ha ha, it's ridiculous. What qualifications does such a person have to spy on the secrets of that world? Haven't you ever thought about it? What exactly do you have? If you put aside your identity from birth, you are really pitiful and have nothing.

Xia Di's face was extremely gloomy, while Liu Xi's forehead oozed with fine sweat beads, which was obviously extremely nervous.

"Your Majesty, you don't have to be angry. I'm just telling the truth. You do hold the imperial power, but this imperial power is not strong and useless at all. More than ten years ago, the reason why I solved the matter of King Qi for you was entirely because you were a monarch who only knew how to hold power. And King Qi, if he ascends the throne, he will definitely flatten the supervisory court, and even take the whole Xia Kingdom as a threat. It is impossible for me to choose such a dangerous person. Therefore, I choose a relatively safe emperor, you. From the matter of Queen Yun, it can be seen that you care very much about your power, otherwise how can you tolerate the betrayal of Queen Yun? You must be afraid of the forces behind the Queen.

"You want to provoke me."

"No, just say it casually. It doesn't mean anything special." Su Rou said, "I think the emperor must have something to ask when he comes here late at night. In this case, don't talk nonsense and get straight to the point."

"In that case, you might as well guess what I'm going to ask you."

Su Rou sat up with a smile on her expression: "I don't want to guess. Whether you guess or not, the facts are there. Your Majesty, you'd better say it yourself."

"Okay, in this case, I won't beat around the bush." Xia Di's eyes were heavy and he said slowly, "I'm going to kill Murong Lingyue, so I want to hear what you mean."

At that moment, Su Rou took a deep breath, and her heart was full of inexplicable emotions: "Your Majesty, you just said that you were going to kill Murong Lingyue."

"You heard it right. I'm going to kill Murong Lingyue." Xia Di repeated.

"Why?"

"What do you think?" Xia Di narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't allow the second dean to appear. It's that simple."

"Really, then you can kill it as you like." Su Rou said, "But in the spirit of murder, I advise the emperor to find a better master to protect himself. Liu Ye is not a vegetarian."

"This is a big trouble, so I came to you today to ask you to do something."

"You want the Liuye beside me to kill that Liuye, right?" Su Rou raised her eyebrows and asked softly.

"It's true. You're really smart."

"I'd like to know what she did to make you so afraid."

"Actually, it's nothing, but Ling Yue wrote a poem in the Qinglong Hall today."

Su Rou thought for a moment and asked, "Isn't it anti-Qing and restoration or something?"

"The country breaks through the mountains and rivers, and the city is full of vegetation. When I feel the flowers, I burst into tears, and I hate the birds. Xia Di whispered, "This is this poem that makes me afraid of her, so I must kill her."

"The beacon has been burning for three months, and the family letter is worth ten thousand dollars. The white head scratching is shorter, and the desire is irresistible.

Xia Di's face showed a puzzled look: "What are you talking about?"

"Ha ha, it turns out that this poem is a clue to kill Ling Yue, so I will make up for the rest now so that Murong Lingyue can die more clearly." Su Rou smiled gently and said, "I didn't expect that a poem could kill a person."

"The beacon has been burning for three months, and the family letter is worth ten thousand dollars. The white head scratching is shorter, and the desire is irresistible. Xia Di repeated, and finally said, "This is neat."

"Concretion? This poem was not written by Ling Yue. Why do you have to take it so seriously?

"What did you say?"

"I just read the second half of this poem." Su Rou said, "The author of this poem is not Ling Yue. Please be sure to figure it out about this."

"Are you ping for her?"

"Ping for mercy? I don't think so. Her life has nothing to do with me. Similarly, your life has nothing to do with me. Su Rou half narrowed her eyes and gave a big breath, "Ah, Your Majesty, please come back. I'm sleepy."

Emperor Xia got up and seemed reluctant to stay in the secret room, but as soon as Emperor Xia went out, he heard Su Rou smile and say, "That poem is Du Fu's."
