Wei Xiaobao's Three Kingdoms Adventure

Chapter 32 Monkey Steals Peach
Wei Xiaobao was so shocked by the scolding that he stood there in a daze. He secretly looked over and saw a woman standing inside the door. The woman was only in her early twenties. Although her face was angry, she could not hide her beauty. She looked at Wei Xiaobao with wide eyes.

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself, "If I run now, what if she calls for help? I'm not familiar with the inside and outside of the palace, so I'll definitely be caught. Since she also lives in the palace, could she be the dead emperor's sister? Princess Jianning is so arrogant that I'm not afraid of her. How can you, a princess who lived over a thousand years ago, dare to scare me?"

Wei Xiaobao took advantage of her unpreparedness, pulled out a dagger from his chest, and pounced on the woman like a lion attacking a rabbit.

The woman had no idea that Wei Xiaobao would attack her, and was immediately thrown to the ground by him.

Wei Xiaobao originally thought that the woman would resist once or twice, but he succeeded easily. As a result, he used too much force and pinned the woman under him.

The woman screamed loudly after being knocked to the ground. As soon as she opened her mouth, Wei Xiaobao covered her mouth and the dagger was put against her neck.

Feeling a chill on her neck, the woman dared not scream anymore and stared at Wei Xiaobao.

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself, "So you don't have any skills at all. That saves you a lot of trouble."

Wei Xiaobao's chest pressed against the woman's, legs pressed together. As he got closer, he noticed her beautiful eyes and pearly mouth, no less attractive than his wives, and her beauty, with a touch of maturity, made her resemble a mature woman like Madam Hong. The faint fragrance emanating from the woman sent a tingling sensation through Wei Xiaobao's heart.

But with his life at stake, Wei Xiaobao didn't dare to think too much and said, "Don't scream again, or I'll poke eight or ten holes in your neck."

The woman nodded.

Wei Xiaobao climbed up from the woman and pulled her up from the ground, never daring to leave the dagger from her throat.

The woman said, "Did Empress Dowager Dong ask you to kill me?"

Wei Xiaobao reached behind him to close the door, then pulled the woman to the bedside. After listening for any movement outside, he said, "What Queen Mother Dong? I don't know her. Just answer whatever I ask you, or I'll get angry and scratch your pretty face. That would be such a shame."

Wei Xiaobao then asked, "Who are you? Are you familiar with the palace?"

The woman said, "You don't know who I am, yet you dare to assassinate me. Who ordered you to do so? If you are willing to release me, I will not only spare your life, but also promote you to the position of Imperial Eunuch and recommend your family members to serve as officials in the court."

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself, "She thought I was a eunuch, so she promised me the position of Imperial Chamberlain. I don't want that. Those old eunuchs are even more ruthless than Hai Dafu. If I hang out with them every day, I'll be betrayed like Jian Shuo sooner or later. Why is she just like Lu Zhi, bribing people by giving them official titles and making promises? The last thing I want is an official position. Bribing me with money might help."

Wei Xiaobao said, "Answer my question first, or I'll draw a little turtle on your face, just like my little wife."

Wei Xiaobao knew that such a beautiful woman cared most about her appearance.

As expected, the woman gave in and quickly said, "I am the current queen. If you dare to disfigure me, I will behead you and leave your head in the streets."

Wei Xiaobao laughed inwardly and cursed, "I never thought a little bitch like you would dare to lie to me. The emperor just died, and the new emperor hasn't ascended the throne yet. How could there be such a young and beautiful queen like you? Xiao Xuanzi's empress dowager is already too old to be seen!"

Wei Xiaobao certainly didn't know the fate of the Eastern Han emperors. None of them paid for their lives. The recently deceased Emperor Ling, Liu Hong, had reigned for a long time, but he was only 32 years old when he passed away. Moreover, the current Empress He was enthroned after the previous Empress Song was deposed.

Queen He was speechless for a moment. How could she prove that she was the current queen when she met such a unreasonable Wei Xiaobao?

Wei Xiaobao waved his knife in front of the Queen and said, "I don't care if you are the Queen or the Princess. You only need to answer one question and I will let you go."

The queen nodded and said, "As long as you don't hurt me, I promise you."

Wei Xiaobao asked, "Where is the emperor's seal and how can I get it?" Wei Xiaobao already had a plan in his mind. He just needed to knock the woman in front of him unconscious and find the seal and then go back to find Zhang Jue. By the time she woke up, he would have already run away with Shuang'er. He didn't care if she was the empress or the princess!
Empress He was worried about her eldest brother He Jin's delay in entering the palace when she heard someone yelling in the corridor. She was furious and was about to punish the person, but she unexpectedly invited Wei Xiaobao, the plague god, into her chambers. She thought it was an assassin sent by Empress Dowager Dong to kill her, but when she heard Wei Xiaobao deny it, she didn't feel happy because she heard him asking about the whereabouts of the imperial seal.

Empress He is now waiting for her eldest brother from her natal family to support her and let her own son Liu Bian succeed to the throne as emperor. But if the imperial seal is gone, how can he be emperor?

When Empress He thought of this, she became more and more certain that Wei Xiaobao was the thief sent by Empress Dowager Dong to steal the jade seal. She said, "I don't know where the jade seal is."

Wei Xiaobao hit Empress He on the head with a dagger and said, "You just said you were the Empress, how come you don't even know where the Emperor's seal is?"

Empress He said, "The Emperor came to the palace without the Imperial Seal. How could I possibly know where it is?"

Wei Xiaobao thought to himself: "That seems to be true. I'm really fucking confused."

Wei Xiaobao asked again, "Then tell me how to get to the study?"

Empress He asked in return, "What is the upper study?"

Wei Xiaobao sighed, thought for a long time, and asked, "Where does the emperor usually work?"

Empress He thought that this man was not only unfamiliar with the imperial palace, but also didn't know about Zhangde Hall. He was definitely not a eunuch in the palace, so she thought about how to deceive him.

At this moment, someone came from outside and reported: "Empress, General He Jin wants to see you."

Wei Xiaobao was shocked: "She really is the queen!"

Wei Xiaobao quickly leaned over to the Queen's ear and whispered, "Just say you're not feeling well and ask him to go back first."

Empress He said, "I am not feeling well. Please return to where you came from, General."

He Jin broke through Jian Shuo's obstruction and went to the mourning hall but did not see his sister, so he hurried to the bedroom to discuss with her. When he heard Queen He say "Go back to where you came from", he knew that there must be something fishy. He did not care about the rules of the palace and kicked open the door and rushed in.

Wei Xiaobao had already sensed something strange in Empress He's words and was thinking of knocking her out and escaping through the window.

But before Wei Xiaobao could make a move, Empress He had already taken the initiative.

Empress He, originally a butcher, had framed Empress Song and poisoned Concubine Wang since entering the palace, demonstrating her ruthlessness and ruthlessness. She was certain that Wei Xiaobao was no eunuch, and since she saw him with one foot on the edge of the bed, she seized the opportunity to strike him in the groin.

Wei Xiaobao often used this trick of the monkey stealing peaches to deal with others, but he didn't expect that today his peaches would also be stolen by the woman in front of him.

Wei Xiaobao was caught by Empress He's vitals and had no time to dodge. He was pulled into the bed with Empress He. The bed curtains and quilt had wrapped the two of them tightly.

Of the two people who were hit, one grabbed the other's vitals and refused to let go, while the other pressed the dagger against the other's chest and exerted force secretly.

But when He Jin just broke into the room, he only saw two people hugging each other in the bed wrapped in a quilt.
