Chapter 327 It’s Hard to Be the Wife (11)

Shi Sheng taught everyone who was disrespectful to the spiritual covenant last night a lesson.

Compared to Mr. Lin who was lying on the ground and didn't know whether to live or die, this lesson was already light.

Shi Sheng regained his composure and then dragged the iron sword out of the hall. A group of people sat on the ground to catch their breath after the disaster.

Not far away lay a bleeding Master Lin.

A group of people called for the imperial doctor.

The Prime Minister's party also wanted to use coercion and inducement to deal with the aftermath, and they were not allowed to tell anyone about what had just happened.

Shi Sheng did not immediately go to trouble the princess, but left the palace.

It is certainly unrealistic to attack the Crown Princess in a big way in the palace. She is the next heir appointed by the Queen after all. If you want to kill her, wouldn't it give the Queen a chance to eradicate the Jun family?

…

When Shi Sheng returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ying Yue and Dai Yue felt their hearts pounding when they saw that the iron sword in Shi Sheng's hand was still stained with blood.

Who are you attacking, sir?

"Tell the people of the Jun family to pay attention to themselves recently. I will not prey on them if they are imprisoned." Shi Sheng gave a casual order.

Yue Yue felt even more uneasy. He just went to have a morning meeting, what big things did he do?

February soon learned the truth from the inside.

But they don't want to know the truth at all.

You actually stabbed someone in the Queen's Golden Palace. Are you trying to give the Queen an excuse to kill you?

Sir, please don't be so willful, please?

Think about those who are responsible for the aftermath.

After giving instructions, Shi Sheng went directly into the study.

He didn't come out for a long time.

"Knock knock." The door of the study room was knocked twice. "Sir, the Queen sent someone to ask if Taoist Master Ling Yue is at the house. What do you think of the reply?"

Shi Sheng looked up from the pile of rice paper and said, "Answer truthfully."

There was silence outside for a while, "Yes."

The Queen sent someone to Prince Ning's mansion before and learned that Prince Ning was ill. Taoist priest Ling Yue followed the Prime Minister last night.

The Queen was so angry that she almost had a heart attack.

This is nothing.

The Queen then sent someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for someone. Shi Sheng admitted that the spiritual promise was at the Mansion, but refused to give him life or death. Seeing that the heavenly sacrifice was getting closer, the Queen sent troops to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"This Jun Liyou is almost covering the sky with one hand. Is she going to rebel?" The queen was so angry that she slapped the table, her eyes full of fierceness.

"The Jun family has become more and more powerful in recent years. Your Majesty, you can no longer give in..." The speaker was a man in palace uniform, standing next to the queen with lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes.

"I don't want to give in." The Queen seemed to have aged a few years in an instant, and sighed, "The people trained by the Jun family almost control the entire court. Those we secretly got rid of are minions, not Jun family at all. Jun Liyou may have noticed the core of the problem, so he recently started to fight back..."

Even she, the queen, didn't know how powerful the Jun family was.

Since her mother's generation, she had been on guard against the Jun family and secretly pulled out the Jun family's minions. However, even after so many years since she took the throne, the Jun family still stood strong.

The Jun family was like a towering tree with countless branches. The ones she removed were like the leaves on it, inconspicuous.

The only thing she was lucky about was that Jun Liyou was the only direct descendant of the Jun family, and Jun Liyou still had no children.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan."

The queen looked at the man.

The man stepped forward with a smile, rubbed the Queen's shoulders, leaned over slightly, and leaned into the Queen's ear, "Didn't His Majesty's people say that she cares about the Taoist priest Ling Yue?"

"Nonsense." The Queen's face darkened, "Taoist Priest Lingyue is from Wanyuan Mountain."

"Your Majesty... do you really believe that the Taoist priest of Wanyuan Mountain has the ability to reach the sky? If he is really that powerful, why is Wanyuan Mountain getting worse every year these years?"

The Queen fell silent.

…

The Queen's people ask for appointments every day, their attitude is very good, and they try not to conflict with Shi Sheng's people.

Shi Sheng had not met Ling Yue since that day, and Shi Sheng was wondering how to determine Ling Yue's identity.

Ling Yue felt embarrassed and deliberately avoided it.

"Sir, the Heavenly Sacrifice is in five days... Do we really not want to send Taoist Master Ling Yue back?" Dai Yue looked at Shi Sheng who didn't know what to write.

The word "adult"...

"No." Shi Sheng didn't even raise his eyelids.

Dai Yue hesitated, "But this is related to the autumn harvest..."

Shi Sheng put down his brush, "Do you really believe that he can protect the autumn harvest?"

"Sir, this is not a matter of belief or not." Dai Yue's face became more solemn. "If this year's autumn harvest is really bad, the people will blame you because you hold Taoist priest Lingyue."

Ordinary people don't care what's true or false. When they don't have enough food and clothing, they need someone to vent their anger on to relieve their resentment.

Shi Sheng put down the brush and said, "Go and bring back that little Taoist priest from Wanyuan Mountain."

"Eh?" What does it have to do with the little Taoist priest?

"Go if you are told."

Dai Yue opened her mouth, and finally went out confused. The adults were becoming more and more disorganized.

However, the people sent by Dai Yue came back that day and said that there was no one in Wanyuan Mountain and there were signs of fighting in one of the rooms.

Dai Yue reported the situation to Shi Sheng, who stared at her for three seconds.

Dai Yue couldn't help but touch her face and head. Is there anything strange about her today?

"Is there anything unusual about the spiritual contract?"

"No, everything is normal." Does the disappearance of the little Taoist priest have anything to do with the spiritual covenant?

Shi Sheng held his chin in his hands, the expression on his face was unspeakably mocking, "Guess whether Ling will come to me for help."

Dai Yue: "..." She has no idea what the adults are talking about. Her brain circuit is no longer synchronized with the adults.

Shi Sheng looked at Dai Yue with a look of disdain and said, "Pay close attention to Ling Yue's movements and go down."

Intelligence is indeed innate.

Alas, it's too cold at high places, and this baby is really lonely.

[…] Host, can I have a face? It's obvious that you came up with a conclusion based on the novel's formula, but you chose to rely on your own IQ.

#Why is my host becoming more and more shameless#

#The host always thinks he is invincible#

In the afternoon of the next day, the Queen's people came again. This time Ling Yue actually met with them. I don't know what they talked about. Ling Yue finally agreed to host the heavenly sacrifice.

After saying goodbye to Yingyue, he left directly with the people in the palace.

Dai Yue and Shi Sheng stood in the dark, watching Ling Yue being escorted into the carriage.

As soon as the carriage set off, Dai Yue couldn't help but say, "Sir, did you mean yesterday that the Queen's people kidnapped the little Taoist priest and threatened Taoist Master Ling Yue?"

"It seems you can still be saved." Shi Sheng patted Dai Yue on the shoulder with a look of relief on his face.

Dai Yue: "..." How bad is she in the hearts of adults.

"Let the people in the palace protect him. I don't want what happened last time to happen again."

Dai Yue: "..." Since you care, sir, why did you let Master Ling Yue go? Can't they just rescue him?

Dai Yue stopped complaining and said seriously: "Ahem, people already have clues. Sir, it's time for us to save people."
