Chapter 478: Extra, a work of venting anger - Dealing with the Emperor
The emperor was awakened by the thunder, "Come here, what's going on outside?"
"Your Majesty, outside..."
The eunuch on night watch had just said half of his words when he fell to the ground with a thump and was motionless.
It was also very quiet outside the hall, and no sound could be heard.
The emperor was startled and wanted to press the mechanism on the bed to escape, but he was horrified to find that he had no strength to move.
He stared at the open door and looked at the man and woman who walked in.
The emperor calmly asked, "Who are you? What brings you here so late at night?"
Su Ci looked at him without saying anything. Hua Hua's attention was all on Su Ci, and she was too lazy to pay attention to the emperor.
For a moment, no one answered his question.
The emperor frowned, "Are you here to kill me?"
Su Ci shook his head. "Although you are not a wise ruler, you are also a ruler who maintains the status quo. If you suddenly die, the world will be in chaos."
In fact, from a standpoint, the emperor was not wrong in arresting Fang Zeshi's family and forcing Li Lianhua to offer the Wangchuan flower.
Even his decision to let Li Lianhua go in the end was a smart move.
You can win people's hearts without getting a bad reputation.
But this doesn't stop Su Ci from hating him.
If he hadn't forced Li Lianhua, Li Lianhua might not have given up that 30% hope.
The emperor did not relax his vigilance after hearing this, and even became more vigilant. "Tell me your purpose."
Su Ci sighed: "Your Majesty, we don't want to be your enemy, and we have no choice but to come to you in the middle of the night."
She approached the wary emperor, took out a dagger and made a small cut on his finger, then put a bug close to the wound.
The next moment, the little bug crawled into the wound, climbed up along the blood vessels, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The emperor was shocked: "What kind of insect is this? What have you done to me? What do you want to do?"
Su Ci sprinkled some hemostatic powder on his wound, bandaged it, and smiled at the emperor in a soothing manner, "Your Majesty, don't be afraid. This is not something that can harm people. This is called Life and Death Gu, which means living and dying together."
The emperor suppressed the urge to curse, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down, "Who was the other Gu used on?"
Su Ci looked at him with appreciation, "It's on Li Lianhua, or rather, on Li Xiangyi. The one he has is the female Gu, and the one you have is the male Gu.
If the mother Gu is injured, the damage will be transferred to the child Gu, but the injury of the child Gu will not affect the mother Gu. The most important thing is that once the mother Gu dies, the child Gu will also die. "
Life and death Gu, the full name is "Live and die together Gu". Once someone uses the Life and Death Gu, the user will bear all the damage on behalf of the user within 10 days.
This was slightly different from what Su Ci told the emperor, but it didn't have much of an impact since he didn't understand it anyway.
The emperor was so angry that his chest was heaving. He gritted his teeth and said, "If I can't kill Li Xiangyi, can't I kill the people he cares about? Aren't you afraid that I will kill Fang Duobing, Qin Po and others?"
Su Ci shrugged: "It doesn't matter, I just want Li Lianhua to be alive. Besides, if you are not worried about angering Li Lianhua and making him die with you, you can give it a try."
The emperor was so angry that he didn't dare to gamble, not even with the slightest possibility.
Su Ci: "I think you should be very clear about what happened in the martial arts world recently."
Emperor: "If you mean that Li Xiangyi's senior brother Shan Gudao is planning to usurp the throne, I know."
Su Ci nodded and said with relief: "Very good, it seems that I don't need to waste my breath explaining.
Shan Gudao, Jiao Liqiao, Feng Qing and other Nanyin people are already dead. In order to ensure that Li Lianhua will not be liquidated by you, I came here to ask for his protection. "
Emperor: "I have no intention of touching Li Lianhua. A person who is dying is not worth my bother."
Su Ci shook his head, "You won't move Li Xiangyi who is about to die, but you may not be able to move Li Lianhua who is a hundred years old.
So, I'm linking your two lives together, which will be good for both you and him.
Don't worry, this offspring will also be good for you. The better the mother Gu lives, the stronger the vitality of the offspring will be, and you will benefit as well."
The emperor sneered, "Should I say thank you?"
Su Ci grinned, "You're welcome. In fact, if I could, I wouldn't let you benefit. But unfortunately, this is a two-way thing, and I can't do anything about it."
The emperor said coldly: "I have never heard of this life and death Gu. How do I know whether what you said is true or false?"
Su Ci tilted his head, "You don't have to believe it, but I don't ask you to believe it. Anyway, Li Lianhua has recovered to his peak state now, and no one in this world can hurt him.
Putting a spell on you is just a double insurance. As for what you will choose, I believe you are a smart person and know what is best for you. "
She stood up and said politely, "It's getting late, let's say goodbye. Have a good dream, good night. Oh, by the way, don't kill innocent people."
After saying that, she pointed at the people who had fainted around her, then pulled Huahua, who remained silent, out of the palace.
