The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 267 The Strange Boy

Boundless Palace.

Gu Qingyi looked at the young man in shackles quietly, frowning slightly, without saying a word.

The young man was covered with injuries all over his body, where he was seriously injured, his bones could be seen, but even though he was seriously injured and dying, the young man's back was still straight, and he could not see the slightest appearance of his humble appearance at the palace banquet that day.

Standing beside Her Majesty, Qin Shu looked at her strangely silent appearance since the young man came, and was a little uncertain what she meant.

Came here specially to summon this young man. Could it be that His Majesty just wanted to take a look at him?
In the silence, the young man looked up at Qin Shu, and saw that the gentle aura exuding from him at the moment was not at all like the ruthless and cold look he had when interrogating him, and a strange color flashed across his eyes.

After a while, he turned his eyes to look at Her Majesty the Empress, and said with a soft smile, "Your Majesty's injury is recovering very quickly."

Gu Qingyi looked at him with heavy eyes: "With Qin Shu here, of course I will recover quickly."

Anger flashed across the boy's eyes.

There was no hatred, just anger, and the eyes that fell on Qin Shu still had a hint of hatred for the lack of steel.

Qin Shu was stunned to see it.

Could it be that he misunderstood the meaning of this young man?

Shouldn't this boy hate him and His Majesty to death?The horrific wounds all over his body are inextricably related to him, this young man doesn't feel anything?

What's the matter with the eyes that hate iron but not steel?

Weird.

Gu Qingyi smiled: "Qin Shu, let him go."

"His Majesty?"

Qin Shu didn't understand the meaning of every order she gave, for example, now——

"He stabbed His Majesty." Qin Shu reminded her of this fact.

Even if he didn't kill him, His Majesty shouldn't let him go like this.Killing one as an example is the right decision, isn't it?

Gu Qingyi glanced at him slowly: "Are you questioning my decision?"

Qin Shu was taken aback, took a step back, lowered his eyes decisively and said respectfully: "I dare not."

Gu Qingyi sneered.

Looking up at the young man below the steps, she said calmly, "Did I call you Jinyun, or should I call you Qi Ran?"

Qi Ran's usual calm expression finally disappeared.

He subconsciously looked at Qin Shu, only to see that Qin Shu was also looking at him with a frown, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Qi Ran.

The gentleman with thousands of faces, Qi Ran.

Qin Shu frowned and looked at him carefully.

The Qi Ran in his memory is not like this, at least, it won't be the boy he is now.

Glancing at Her Majesty, who was as immobile as a mountain, Qin Shu decided to believe what she said, and raised his eyes to look at Qi Ran again, his tone was as indifferent as ice in an instant: "You killed the person who was the regent of Xuan Kingdom, pretending to be this young man Assassinate His Majesty?"

Meeting his sharp gaze, Qi Ran lowered her head.

If he answered yes, would this person kill him?

But after thinking about it, he felt unwilling again.

Why is he defending this woman like this?

What is there for such a cruel and ruthless woman to be worth his maintenance?

Pursing his lips, Qi Ran said with a little confidence: "I didn't mean it."

The tacit words made Qin Shu's face turn cold for a moment.

"Isn't it intentional? Is that intentional?"

Uh--

What is the difference between intentionally and intentionally?

Seeing his cold face, Qi Ran felt a little guilty for no reason, as if the wounds on his body began to ache.

"I... I just want to try Her Majesty's martial arts."
