It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

How could he have colluded with his friends and persecuted loyal officials when he was ignorant of the affairs of the court and the country? Could it be that my grandfather was getting old and confused and remembered the wrong person?

She has learned 70% of Shengsheng's skills and has mastered the art of pretending.

Those who pretend not to understand and don't know her numerous evil deeds would really think she is an innocent queen who is as innocent as a little white rabbit...

The granddaughter played deaf and dumb and ignored his earnest advice.

Old Man Xia is usually very calm, but when it comes to his loved ones and the situation is so heartbreaking, he can't help but get angry!

He laughed in anger...

"Grandfather? Your Majesty, I cannot bear to address you as such."

"I do have a granddaughter, but she is a vicious woman who is worse than a beast and more cruel than a vicious animal. She threw away all the propriety, righteousness, and honor that I taught her since she was a child... She is definitely not comparable to a virtuous person like the queen."

"Oh~, you scolded me well!"

Before Li Rou could figure out how to respond, the voice of the person she most longed for and hated came to her mind.

"...Well, what you taught me is just a waste of time."

"As expected of the head of all officials, you hit the nail on the head."

Hear the words.

Li Rou was not very angry at first, but because Sheng Sheng started to make sarcastic comments, she became furious.

People will only get angry because of what others say when they are facing the people or events they care about the most.

Even if Xia Yong pointed at Li Rou's nose and scolded her, Li Rou would not get angry. Instead, she would act like a virtuous woman in front of him.

But Shengsheng's weird attitude...

Li Rou couldn't stand it anymore!

Ever since she came up with the idea of ​​using a scorpion pot to force and intimidate the ministers, her sheng master has often praised her like this.

What do you mean by vicious? I am not as vicious as you.

What? You still say you are not better than your master? You dare to create such a heinous punishment as burning in a scorpion pot and burning with fire? Aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?

Awesome, I admire you so much...

She would praise him like this whenever she had the chance, and would not respond to her words. She would just talk about her own things.

Li Rou's thoughts are different from Sheng Sheng's. The latter doesn't care about the other person at all. The former wants to get closer, but has to break up because of Qin Ying's matter, so she wants to get close but secretly resents him.

Therefore.

Shengsheng can ridicule without any hesitation.

However, Li Rou would feel indignant at the other party's words and could not turn a deaf ear to them.

She was angry with Shengsheng and she wanted to vent her anger...so the palace maids would be severely punished if they did something wrong. Now, even the ministers in the court could not escape the disaster.

but.

What Shengsheng cares about now is the peace both inside and outside the court.

Note that nowadays...

Now Ning Wang and Madam Mi are gone, and Chen Li, the third prime minister among the three prime ministers, and the southern and northern prime ministers among the four prime ministers, are also gone. The court is not as clear as before, and many treacherous and slanderous ministers have appeared. Cui Leng River and Mountain are no longer as stable as before.

In just a few years, things have changed so fast.

Shengsheng also didn't expect that the originally strong foundation of Cuileng Country would be quickly consumed due to various reasons.

She is now seeking stability...

They began to worry that before Qin Ying could succeed to the throne, the Cui Leng Kingdom would be destroyed by the two defeated women Qin Yun and Li Rou.

By then, Qin Ying will not be the last ruler of Cui Leng.

So where should this history go... But no matter where it goes, I'm afraid the dream trial will be considered a failure.

Therefore, Shengsheng cares about the stability inside and outside the court.

Whenever Li Rou caused trouble, she would get angry, anxious and upset.

Shengsheng couldn't bear the loss, she was determined not to let Li Rou feel good. She knew Li Rou's thoughts and knew that she wanted to get close to her, so she deliberately mocked her in a sarcastic way.

Then Li Rou was not happy either...

This forms a cycle.

At this moment, Xia Yong scolded his granddaughter, and Sheng Sheng's exaggeration made Li Rou furious.

He felt resentment towards his grandfather.

During the three months of this quarrel, Li Rou constantly used words to confuse Qin Yun, causing the other party to feel that the world was peaceful now, but that old guy Xia Yong was always exaggerating and going against him...

Gradually, this dissatisfaction was guided by Li Rou and the slanderous ministers, and finally it broke out to the extreme.

......

Hengyun 25th year, autumn.

Xia Yong was given poisoned wine by the king and ordered to drink it after returning home. He could claim to have returned home due to illness and old age, which was considered a reward for his past achievements.

That night, the old man sat at the stone table in the courtyard.

Looking at the bleak autumn wind and the withered yellow grass leaves in the yard, he let out a long sigh.

"Rong Bo, the king has lost his way. After I leave, the court will be in chaos... If we want to keep this land standing, we have to protect the young master."

It turned out that there were guests in the Xia Mansion at this moment.

He was a middle-aged scholar with a handsome face.

But if someone is careful, they can find that her cheek lines are soft, and she is actually a woman dressed as a man.

Not bad.

The second cousin, Rongbo, was a woman.

Her talent and strategy were far superior to that of countless other men. Her original name was Rong Niang. Because of her outstanding literary talent and strategy, she was appreciated by the late King Qin Tong and Lady Mi and was appointed as the second prime minister.

In terms of martial arts, there are about half and half strong men and women in the world.

But in terms of strategy, men do need to be more far-sighted, good at making plans and good at governance.

Most of the civil officials in the court are men, and Rong Bo is a unique one... The officials also know that she is a woman, and she herself does not want to stand out, so she dresses up a little as a man.

She didn't bind her chest or anything like that to try to cover it up.

"Old man, you...Hey~!"

Rong Bo seemed to want to persuade Xia Yong.

But suddenly he thought of the Xia family's inherited martial arts, and finally he sighed and shook his head.

It turns out that the foundation of the Xia family's martial arts is loyalty to the emperor and patriotism...If the emperor wants his subjects to die, the subjects have to die. This can be said to be blind loyalty.

Therefore, the Xia family's family education has always been strict and rigid...

If Xia Yong did not take the poisoned wine, he would go against this mentality. His longevity was extended by spiritual martial arts, and if he lost his cultivation, he would be dead.

Thinking of this, Rong Bo silently advised him to live a miserable life.

You can only concentrate on listening to the other party's instructions and follow-up arrangements.

Just as the two were discussing state affairs, a person they never expected came into the courtyard.

"grandfather......"

The person stood in front of the courtyard gate, graceful and delicate.

She called Xia Yong with a complicated look in her eyes, which seemed to contain emotion and guilt, but eventually turned into calmness.

Chapter 122 Shengsheng Complains

Thursday.

On the third day of the week, control of this body should have been in Li Rou's hands.

But knowing that Xia Yong will drink poison and die tonight, Sheng Sheng still decides to use Ming Jinhu to forcibly take away control and go to see him... Sheng Sheng feels that he has some responsibility for the old man's granddaughter becoming what she is now.

But then again...

In fact, at the beginning, she never thought that Li Rou would become as bad as she is now.

Moreover, his values ​​have completely deviated from Shengsheng's, and they are getting further and further away!

Sometimes Shengsheng would seriously recall her past experiences in the palace and ponder over the many details that she had overlooked... She discovered that there was something wrong with Li Rou's nature.

Now, he wanted to get close to me, which I had already hinted at from the beginning.

Also.

Li Rou's intimacy is different from Qin Ying's simple admiration. She is a fanatical worship of evil. This kind of thought is extremely morbid and dangerous...

Shengsheng is gradually coming to his senses now.

Because he wanted to have a good relationship with Qin Ying, he appeared to be "soft-hearted" towards Qin Ying and Concubine Ning... This made Li Rou misunderstand that he loved Qin Ying.

Li Rou did not feel jealous, but she still hated and despised Qin Ying.

When it comes down to it, there is only one reason.

Qin Ying made the 'sheng master' whom she admired become more compassionate and less cruel and ruthless than before.

Most of them think that Shengsheng in that posture is particularly handsome or perfect...

That was the evil gesture that her nature pursued!

Therefore.

That's why he deliberately tried to eliminate Qin Ying, in an attempt to let the sheng master who "hid the sword in the sheath" show his prowess again.

It was only after understanding Li Rou's thoughts that Sheng Sheng was certain of one thing... Even without his earnest teachings, Li Rou could still grow to where she is today in the cruel and vicious harem struggles.

At most, they will not know about cruel punishments such as scorpion pits, burning with fire, etc., but they will not change their behavior of harming others.

Li Rou is a born evil person!

I'm afraid that in the original history, that is, in the memory of the dream weaver Qin Ying, the other party was also famous throughout the world.

Of course...

This name is definitely not a good name.

But it was a bad reputation similar to the current "Demon Queen".

After seeing through Li Rou's true nature, Sheng Sheng's guilt towards those innocent and loyal people who were harmed was alleviated a lot.

After all, even without Xia Li, Li Rou would still kill them.

This is a dream woven based on Qin Ying's memory. Except for the wish that Qin Ying desires, which should change after certain conditions are met...everything else, no matter how much anyone changes it.

finally.

The stories will still unfold one by one according to the stories in Qin Ying's memory.

It’s like the conclusion of a world line, or a predetermined and unchangeable destiny!

Perhaps, this is also the thought that exists in Qin Ying's subconscious mind...

Destiny cannot be changed, and past history is imprinted on the wall of time like steel, so we choose to fulfill our wishes in dreams.

"but......"

"What exactly is her wish?"

Shengsheng was very puzzled.

For now, I have had close contact with Qin Ying, but I feel that Qin Ying is not a person who serves the country and the people... She may not care whether Cui Leng Kingdom is destroyed or not, and whether she is the last ruler of Cui Lengjing.

Qin Ying, this girl, gave Shengsheng a feeling of infatuation...

Had he not been so intoxicated by the love affair under Li Rou's temptation that he was willing to rebel and usurp the throne?

"Could it be that he is still young and his character is not yet determined?"

"Tsk, that girl is a bit confused too."

Shengsheng still couldn't figure it out, so she had to put her thoughts aside for the time being.

Because at this moment she had arrived in front of the courtyard where Xia Yong and Rong Bo were, standing in the quiet bamboo forest, stepping on the stone doorstep...
