Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 400: Your harem is not needed, why not let me use it?

Chu Pingsheng did not drink the last glass of wine in the gourd himself, but chose to give it to the queen.

"Sincerity?"

She held the wine glass in her hand and thought for a long time but couldn't think of anything she, who was almost banished to the cold palace, could use to express her sincerity.

"What do you want? As long as Qian'er can do it..."

"He can't do it. You're the only one who can do this?"

"What can I do? The way I am now, the Queen Mother has been killed by you. Do you think there is anyone in this palace who will listen to me?"

Although it was the Queen Mother who instigated the Wang family to attack Taiping Villa, the two were still aunt and niece after all. The Queen Mother had some influence on Li Yunqian before. Now that the Queen Mother is dead, she is left... Who would take her seriously? If it weren't for Li Chengqian's status as the crown prince, I'm afraid that the palace maids and eunuchs outside would be able to ride on her head and shit.

"Don't forget, you are still the queen, and this identity is recognized by all the people of Qing."

"What do you want?"

"Don't you think it's fun to cuckold Li Yunqian, who is determined to become an emperor, and then watch him get angry and frustrated?"

pat.

The cup fell and the wine spilled on the ground.

She thought he was just a lunatic.

She crawled to the back and Chu Pingsheng walked forward.

"This is the best way for you to take revenge on Li Yunqian, and it is also the behavior that best expresses your sincerity in cooperation."

"伱...you..."

"You have to know that when the Queen Mother dies, you are doomed. Without my help, what will happen to you and your son in the next political struggle? Therefore, you are the one who benefits the most from this business."

"..."

This is absolutely true, but she is the queen after all.

"Empress, you don't want His Majesty to know about Li Chengqian and Li Yunrui, right?"

She did not step back. She thought about his humiliation of the Queen Mother, about how he could produce the nude painting of Li Yunrui, and about his engagement with Lin Wan'er.

"You...you are a devil."

"Of course, because only by being a demon can you feel at ease to fight violence with violence and poison with poison." Chu Pingsheng leaned close to her ear and said, "If a man is willing to touch you, it means he still has feelings for you. If he doesn't even want to touch you...then do you think it's safer to follow me, or to bet that Li Yunqian still has feelings for you?"

"..."

Not only did the breeze from somewhere shake the candlelight in the room, it also shook her heart.

……

Two hours later.

Chu Pingsheng got up from her contentedly, put on his clothes and looked outside the palace. The night was about to end and dawn had not yet arrived. It was the coolest time of summer and also the time when people were most lazy.

"I've slept with princesses, I've slept with female priestesses, I've slept with nuns, I've slept with female Taoist priests... Queen, this is my first time. I should say... You are very lucky, because in this world, I have and only I can change your fate."

The queen straightened her hair that was messed up by him and wet with sweat, and stared blankly at the man opposite her who had just cuckolded Emperor Qing.

"If he knew..."

"You mean, neither you nor I will have a good ending, right?"

"He's scarier than you think."

"I know, he is also a grandmaster."

"He...he is a grandmaster?"

When Li Yunqian was evacuated from the front line because his meridians were destroyed, many people thought he was useless. She also thought so at first. Otherwise, why would she mobilize her mother's family to attack Taiping Villa while he was leading the troops to attack Xihu? However, everything that happened afterwards made her deeply suspicious of the emperor.

Ku He and Si Gu Jian, both of them are like gods in their sphere of influence, but Ye Liuyun, the grandmaster of Qing Kingdom, is the only one who is miserable. The Ye family seems to be in great prosperity, but in fact they are very cowardly in all aspects. She once thought that Ye Liuyun was afraid of Hong Si Xiang, but the scene on the night when the Queen Mother died showed that the grandmaster Hong Si Xiang was just a fake, and Si Gu Jian of Dongyi City was actually scared away by him three times, which was really ridiculous.

When she thought about this problem afterwards, she began to wonder whether Ye Qingmei had left Li Yunqian something that was enough to deal with the grandmaster.

Until I heard Chu Pingsheng's words...

Li Yunqian actually became a grandmaster? Then everything makes sense.

"What? Are you scared?"

Chu Pingsheng tied his belt, walked back to her side, and helped her comb her hair. "If he could kill me, how could he be forced to swallow the revenge of the Queen Mother killing me with a sword?"

After saying that, he patted her hands again. "Don't worry, he will be the emperor in the front, and I will live in his harem in the back. I will often accompany you to drink and sleep. After more than ten years in the cold palace, without the comfort of men, you will become frigid."

The queen blushed as she recalled what he had said during the exercise.

"You...you should leave quickly, it's almost dawn."

She was awakened by the crowing of a rooster in the distance.

"Drink less alcohol in the future, otherwise the experience will be bad."

"What do you mean?"

Chu Pingsheng smiled slightly and walked towards the north-facing window.

A gust of wind blew by and extinguished the candle on her right. She was slightly dazed. When she came to her senses and looked again, there was no one in the room and the window seemed to have never been opened.

Only the pain in her body told her that what happened last night was real.

As the Queen of Nanqing, she cheated on the Emperor of Nanqing.

As for the fact that Chu Pingsheng killed the queen mother.

If it weren't for that old woman's instigation, would the Wang family have ended up like this?

Old thing...damn it!
Have a good death!
What else could she do now? Just like she usually numbed herself with alcohol, facing the fact that she had just slept with the murderer of her aunt, she could only use the hatred towards her aunt to relieve herself.

Fan Xian has the support of Chen Pingping, Li Yunqian, Fan Jian and others. If she and her son want to survive, is there any other way except clinging to the thigh of the great master Chu Pingsheng?

Just as he said, between a man who doesn't even want to touch her and a man who is willing to sleep with her, if she had to choose one, she would naturally choose the man who is willing to sleep with her.

"Li Yunqian, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."

……

The next day and night.

The night is as dark as ink, and no stars can be seen.

The wind seemed to have disappeared from the world. The leaves of the big locust tree in front of the Lin Mansion were motionless. Only the annoying cicadas were still chirping even after the sun had set.

Xin Qiwu walked out of the gate with a white cloth hanging over it, holding up the hem of his robe and walking quickly forward, as if he was afraid of being infected by bad luck and didn't want to stay any longer.

But the actual situation was that he was almost driven out by the servants of the Lin Mansion.

Yesterday, Senior Light Chariot Commandant Lin Youdao was stabbed to death by Chu Pingsheng with five fingers in Taiji Hall. Today is the second day of the funeral. At that time in the court, Chu Pingsheng said that he would be busy next, which was absolutely true. Lai Mingcheng and Lai Yushi were the first, Senior Light Chariot Commandant Lin Youdao was the second, and Yuan Hongdao was the third. Although Yuan Hongdao had no official position, he had been with Lin Ruofu for many years, and the officials in the court all had some friendship with him to some extent.

For things like condolences, it’s better to visit during the day, but Lord Xin’s situation is rather special.

After the court meeting ended yesterday, he jumped three levels, from Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple to Qing of the Honglu Temple. Judging from the results, he was the biggest winner. The problem was that all this was obtained by Chu Pingsheng, so in the eyes of others, he was undoubtedly the confidant of the Western Hu envoy.

But he doesn't want to be a foreign confidant at all.

Chu Pingsheng is a great man, a disciple of the Grand Master, and an envoy of the Western Hu. He dared to lose his temper at the court, and the emperor had to bear some responsibility. But an envoy is an envoy, can he stay in Qing Kingdom forever? When he returns to the West one day, facing the court controlled by people like Lin Xiang and Qin Ye who have suffered at the hands of Chu Pingsheng, he will inevitably be excluded and targeted. The best result is dismissal and return home, and the worst result is beheading.

In fact, it won't take that long. Given Chu Pingsheng's style of doing things, he might not even wait until the end of his study tour. One day he might say something to His Majesty that would irritate him. God knows whether His Majesty will vent his anger on him.

and so……

After much hesitation, he decided to come to pay his respects and find a relatively quiet time when no one was paying attention to explain things to Lin Youdao's brothers and nephews.

Little did I know that before I even entered the mourning hall to pay my respects, people would tell me that I was not welcome and told the servants to send me away.

"Alas, one misstep can lead to eternal regret, one misstep can lead to eternal regret..."

At this moment, he remembered a sentence he heard when he accompanied Lord Chu to visit the Honglu Temple, which happened to describe his current mood.

Xin Qiwu looked back at the Wufeng Hall on the other side of the courtyard gate which was brightly lit with candles, shook his head, and sighed heavily.

During the reign of the previous emperor, the Lin family not only produced an imperial concubine, but also a family of county horses, so the specifications of their mansion were half a level higher than those of a duke, and they could build a large hall with a hip roof like the Wufeng Hall.

This is also the reason why Lai Ming, whose product level is higher than Lin Youdao, chose to come to the Lin Mansion to pay his respects first.

Just as the new Minister of Rites was lamenting that he had no control over his position in the government, he vaguely saw a figure rushing past the porch of the Minister of Rites' residence diagonally opposite, and after a few takeoffs and landings, he entered the Sanmaqiao area.

Isn't that the direction of the Protocol Court?

Oh no, I have to go check it out.

Xin Qiwu put his worries aside and ran towards the Sanmaqiao area, but the nimble figure stopped twenty feet away from the Protocol Courtyard, because on the roof of the Honglu Temple Yamen, a man in white clothes and a beard like a halberd was standing with a green stick on his waist and a flute in his hand, playing a tune with his back to the visitor.

Originally, the sky was filled with dark clouds and there was no wind. However, a whirlwind strangely swirled around the man, swirling his white clothes and making them seem to float up.
