Chapter 88 Getting Beaten
"No, it's nothing."

Lu Jiu'an shook his head and squeezed the wooden box in his hand slightly.

After hesitating for a while, he mustered up the courage to hand the wooden box to Shen Qingtang and looked at her tenderly.

"Fourth Princess, this is my New Year's gift to you."

Shen Qingtang didn't expect that Lu Jiu'an, who always stuck to the rules, would give her gifts.

"What's inside this?" Shen Qingtang took the wooden box and asked happily.

Seeing Shen Qingtang eager to open the box, Lu Jiu'an quickly stopped him and said, "Fourth Princess, don't open it yet."

He was worried that Shen Qingtang would not accept it after seeing what was inside.

"Is it so mysterious?"

Shen Qingtang put the wooden box away, "Okay, I'll look at it when I get back."

[Reciprocity is a courtesy, so let me give you something as well. 】

Shen Qingtang took out a water-blue glass bead and used magic to carve the word "Lu" on it.

"Here, this is my New Year's gift to you, do you like it?"

Looking at the glass bead lying obediently in Shen Qingtang's palm, Lu Jiu'an's heart was beating fast.

The fourth princess actually gave him a gift in return!
He carefully picked up the beads. The moment he touched them, his heart trembled slightly. The cold glass beads felt so hot to the touch.

"Thank you, Fourth Princess. I like it very much."

This is the best gift he has ever received!

"As long as you like it, I'll leave first." Shen Qingtang waved to him.

"Four princesses, walk slowly." Lu Jiu'an looked at Shen Qingtang's leaving figure and did not leave for a long time.

Lu Jiu'an loved this glass bead and would take it out to look at it whenever she had time.

……

After the banquet, Shen Qingtang returned to the palace and had a good sleep.

Early the next morning, she was called over by the emperor.

Shen Qingtang walked into the Jinluan Palace. In addition to his father, the second emperor's brother was also there.

"Father, second emperor brother." Shen Qingtang bowed obediently.

Shen Tianming said to the palace maids and guards beside him, "You all go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After retreating from the crowd, Shen Tianming pulled Shen Qingtang to his side with a smile.

"Qingtang, come, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Father."

Shen Qingtang was not polite to him and sat down.

Shen Chengyu:? ? ?

Why didn't Father ask him to sit down?

Shen Chengyu had been called over by Shen Tianming a long time ago, but he kept ignoring him.

"Qingtang, please tell Father in detail what happened yesterday."

"Chengyu wants to work with you this time, so my father called him over."

Shen Tianming glanced at Shen Chengyu, but still didn't let him sit down. Shen Chengyu had to stand next to Shen Qingtang obediently.

Shen Qingtang was not used to having such a serious chat with Shen Tianming.

She nodded: "I discovered this matter in the spies' den in Yun County."

Shen Qingtang found a random reason, but they didn't know what the truth was anyway.

"I still don't know who the spy is among the examiners, so I thought of a way to lure him out."

[I know who the spy is, but I just won’t say it. 】

Shen Tianming didn't want to expose her, it didn't matter whether she said it or not, as long as the spy could be caught.

Shen Chengyu looked at Shen Qingtang in surprise and exclaimed in a low voice: "What? There is a spy among the examiners?!"

Why are there so many spies!

Shen Tianming looked serious: "Qingtang, this matter is of great importance, and you alone cannot do it."

He raised his hand and conjured a golden token: "Qingtang, take this token. No matter you want to mobilize troops or do anything, no one dares to stop you." There were so many spies in the court, only Shen Qingtang Only when your rights become greater can you act better.

Shen Qingtang:! ! !

Shen Chengyu:! ! !

The moment Shen Tianming took out the token, not only Shen Chengyu, but also Shen Qingtang himself was shocked.

She opened her eyes slightly.

[No, my father is too generous, right? 】

【Does he trust me so much? 】

"What I hate most are enemy spies, Qingtang, you must catch them. If you need any help, just tell your father." Shen Tianming's words came from the bottom of his heart.

[Oh, never mind, isn’t what I want now just rights? 】

She took the token: "Yes, Father!"

Shen Chengyu looked at the token eagerly, envious.

"Father, I also want a token."

Shen Tianming turned around and glared at him: "You didn't."

"This time you go with Qingtang on the errands. You will do whatever she says."

His stupid son has not yet found out which of his friends is the spy. How dare he leave the matter to Chengyu with confidence.

Now that he has Shen Qingtang's trump card, Fengyin Kingdom will never be destroyed!
As long as he survives for a day, he will always be the emperor. He can give out his power and take it back.

Shen Chengyu never dreamed that his sister, whom he looked down upon before, was now even more powerful than him.

After leaving Jinluan Hall, Shen Chengyu approached Shen Qingtang and asked in a low voice: "Qingtang, what are we going to do next?"

At the thought of catching a spy, Shen Chengyu became inexplicably excited.

"Brother Second Emperor, please go back and wait for my notification." Shen Qingtang walked towards the Moon Palace.

Shen Chengyu:? ? ?

Dismiss him with just one sentence?

He doesn't know any plans.

"Qingtang, please tell me what your plan is, otherwise how can I cooperate with you?"

[Who asked you to cooperate? You are just a person sent by my father to monitor me. You really thought I wanted to work with you. 】

[And you are so stupid, how dare I tell you the plan in advance. 】

Shen Chengyu:......

What my sister said was really heartbreaking, and he’s not stupid either!
Shen Qingtang turned around and looked at him: "Brother Second Emperor, you go back and practice hard. I need you to be a thug."

Shen Chengyu:......

That's it?

Is that all he's good for?

"Qingtang, do you have any other arrangements?" Shen Chengyu asked again without giving up.

"No more." Shen Qingtang shook his head.

[If I let you be a thug, I just want you to get beaten. 】

[Who made you so partial to Shen Muxin before? If I don’t teach you a lesson, it’s hard to understand the hatred in my heart. 】

Shen Chengyu felt a chill go down his back.

He suddenly realized that it was really dangerous to work with Shen Qingtang. If he was not careful, he would be tricked by her.

"Okay, Second Emperor Brother, you go back first."

Shen Chengyu clenched his fists, huh, he won't be beaten, he will go back and practice hard.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, arrived.

Shen Qingtang sent a message to Shen Chengyu.

"Brother Er Huang, get ready and go out shopping at night."

After Shen Chengyu received the news, he immediately became nervous.

How can this be called shopping? This is called going out on a mission.

He swore that he would never be beaten today!
