Sizzle, sizzle~

Xu Ye's whole body was twitching, and at the same time a strong smell of meat was wafting around.

Just after he finished saying this, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the weather, which had just been mild and sunny, suddenly became windy.

"It's cool~"

Xu Ye wiped the rain off his face, made a sword flower, and continued his "thunderstrike" career.

Why did he choose a long sword? Of course, because it is made of iron. Plus, he was standing at a high place and could easily trigger the lightning layer.

So all this is not about Xu Ye being able to cast spells or something, it’s all about science.

Unfortunately, the people of Dayin Kingdom don’t seem to quite understand this principle.

They looked up at the sky and saw a man holding a sword, with his back to the crowd, on a high platform that reached the sky.

He was tall and had a straight back, just like the Goddess of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning. When he raised his sword, the thunder and lightning in the nine heavens flashed together and gathered in one place, bringing rain to the people.

It rained heavily, and the high temperature that had lasted for half a month was instantly dissipated. People spontaneously stood together and cheered, shouting words like "Gods have descended to earth" and "extraordinary people".

The rain fell on the ground, clean and transparent, watering the crops.

Xu Ye recalled the Zhou Mansion that had been there before, which was also an ancient copy. Due to pollution, even the rainwater had turned black.

With someone's deliberate pretense, Xu Ye's path to becoming the "national teacher" was particularly smooth.

He was respectfully taken down from the stage by the eunuchs.

The emperor's hair was messed up by the wind and rain. He sat in the sedan chair and shouted to return to the palace.

"Bring the Imperial Master with you and hold a banquet tonight to celebrate for him."

Barrage: "This emperor is obviously a tyrant."

"Although my brother Ye did it on purpose, he didn't even bother to see others when they worked so hard to pray for rain."

"I am young and too proud."

"I don't think he's here to celebrate, he just wants to drink."

Xu Ye followed the large group and entered the palace.

The majestic gate, the plaque with the words "Haoran Zhengqi" inscribed on it, and the heroic guards guarding the city are a bit like the film and television studios I have seen before.

It just lacks some modern atmosphere such as street lights and electrical wires.

As Xu Ye entered the door, he sneezed for no reason.

It's strange. Just now it was windy and rainy and nothing happened, but now the rain has subsided and I'm sneezing instead.

The emperor couldn't wait to take a bath, so Xu Ye was taken to an empty room to rest.

He roughly knew the reason why he sneezed. Along the way, the palace was filled with a strange aura. The sun seemed to be covered by thick clouds, with only half of it shining in, making the entire palace gloomy and lacking in pure yang energy.

He came to the palace from a normal place, and the comparison between the two made him sneezed.

According to Xu Ye's experience, if the weird aura in one place is stronger than in other places, it is either because some shocking case has happened here, resulting in an extremely high level of weirdness.

Or maybe there were too many people who died in vain, and after death, under the influence of strange spirits, some people lingered in the same place because of obsession and resentment, and were reluctant to leave.

Looking at it now, Xu Ye feels it is the latter.

If it was the former, the entire palace would probably fall and no one would be left alive, and there would be no need for him as an assessor.

Xu Ye was washing up in the room, in a large wooden bathtub with bright red peony petals.

There were many people who wanted to curry favor with him. Two little palace maids wanted to undress him and scrub his body with a cloth, but they were driven out by Xu Ye.

It feels weird, I always feel like I'm being taken advantage of.

After washing up, Xu Ye was full of energy. He put on a black robe and held a big sword, looking very cool.

Like a swordsman.

Xu Ye couldn't act like an immortal, pure and godly person. He was afraid that his butt would get itchy and he would scratch it, which would damage his image.

Black clothes, just right. It's not easy to show the creases when you grab them.

"Let's go and invite the Imperial Master to the banquet with us." Xu Ye was brought to the celebration banquet by the eunuch. He was the number one contributor and sat in the front seat.

Looking around, I saw that quite a few people had already arrived.

The ministers, wearing official uniforms of various colors, were arranged in order according to their colors. Then came the concubines and the Empress who arrived late.

Almost everyone had arrived, but there was no sign of anyone at the bright yellow seat at the top.

Xu Ye ate a pork elbow, two plates of cakes, three crystal buns and a pot of tea...

There was finally movement ahead.

Shuangyu was wearing a light green dress and accompanied the emperor as they slowly arrived.

Her skin is as delicate as jade, and her cheeks are rosy, like a flower that has been nourished and blooms overnight.

The emperor was about 20 years old. His steps were unsteady and his lips were pale, which showed at first glance that he had done too much.

Everyone present looked unhappy, especially the Queen, who almost couldn't hold it together.

Xu Ye took a bite of the chicken leg.

People with weak bodies are more likely to be disturbed by strange stories.

"How dare you do this? Are you trying to seduce the emperor?"

A young man, no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing armor, stood out from the crowd and pointed at Shuangyu:

"Two years ago, the emperor died in your belly."

"Last year, the eldest prince's body was found on his bed early in the morning."

The eldest prince is the elder brother of the current emperor. Originally, when the emperor died, the eldest prince should have inherited the throne. Unfortunately, he passed away before he could ascend the throne.

"Three months ago, Duke Ning came out of your house and died within two days."

He shouted loudly: "You are a scourge to the country, you deserve to die."

In a fit of impulse, the young man tried to pull out the sword of a palace guard beside him, but was held down by the guards.

After the speech, the queen and the concubines showed happy expressions on their faces. The ministers whispered to each other, looking at Shuangyu with expressions full of accusations, but also with unconcealable greed and curiosity.

The emperor's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

Seeing that the goal of killing Shuangyu was not achieved, the young man turned to look at Xu Ye and said eagerly: "Master, please take this goblin away quickly. She is not a human, but a ghost, charming people..."

Everyone's eyes turned to Xu Ye again.

Xu Ye swallowed a mouthful of braised chicken leg, wiped his palms with a wet cloth on the table, stood up, walked to Shuangyu and looked at her carefully, and finally told the truth:

"She's not weird, she's human."

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

The look the Queen gave Xu Ye was like a knife.

The emperor's expression eased slightly, and he slammed the table and said, "Left Colonel, you have committed treason and slandered the general. Drag him down and behead him. Slowly cut him to death."

Zuo Yanzhi screamed loudly: "Your Majesty, you will regret this."

"Beauty is a disaster, and we must not let her stay. If my father were still alive, he would never allow such a woman to live in Kyoto."

Zuo Yanzhi's father was the general who attacked Cheng State, but unfortunately, he died in that battle. He and Lian State had an irreconcilable feud.

He originally thought that if he stood up, he would win the approval of the civil and military officials, and someone would help him. After all, privately, everyone always talked about Lian Shuangyu's identity.

But at this point, he scanned the people present, including the queen, and no one was willing to stand up and say even a word for him.

Zuo Yanzhi was pulled out.

At the critical moment, a charming voice spoke:

"Your Majesty, the left lieutenant may have believed some slanders about this princess, but his crime does not deserve death."

Zuo Yanzhi couldn't believe it and pointed at Shuangyu: "Bah, I don't need your pity."

"You witch, what do you want to do?"

The Emperor: "Princess, just because you are kind doesn't mean others will appreciate your kindness."

Lian Shuangyu covered her lips and smiled softly, but her words were cold and heartless: "Your Majesty, there is nothing to be afraid of when you die. It's just a matter of a moment when your head falls to the ground."

"It would be better to send him to Mao County to suffer the bitter cold of the north."

Zuo Yanzhi kept his mouth shut, because that was his father's territory. Returning to Mao County, he would have a chance to make a comeback and kill the witch to avenge himself.

Zuo Yanzhi felt that he was lucky. This witch knew nothing and it was just a good thing for him.
