Mind reading, I used the concubine system to become the empress

The emperor carried Lin Shu to the corridor outside the house and asked the young eunuchs to demonstrate to him.

Lin Shu looked at the shape of the crossbow and his sleepiness faded a lot.

【Huh?】

The emperor saw that Lin Shu was interested and spoke excitedly.

"This crossbow is different from the repeating crossbows in the army. It is not only much lighter, but also more labor-saving."

“Not only that, the penetration is stronger and the arrow is more stable, further improving the range and accuracy of the shot.”

Lin Shu bit his fingers and looked at it in a daze.

[Why does this look so much like Zhuge Liannu? Is the one in the eunuch's hand a model? It's quite small.]

[But even if it is a model, it should be quite powerful if fired at close range. ]

The emperor said to Lin Shu proudly, "Don't worry, Fubao, Dad has had all the crossbow arrows taken down."

"Let's just watch it."

Having said this, the emperor winked at Manager Zhao who was waiting on the side.

Chief Steward Zhao immediately asked the young eunuchs to change to another weapon.

It was exactly the sleeve arrow that Lin Shu saw in the sleeve of the Mohist disciple that day.

Lin Shu looked at them with envy, but when he saw his own small arms and legs, the heat in his eyes gradually subsided, and he felt even more aggrieved.

Not only could I not eat the chicken legs, I also couldn’t have any fun.

Lin Shu sobbed in grievance, and his eyes were full of resentment when he looked at the emperor.

[If Daddy hadn't woken me up, at least I could have tasted the chicken drumstick in my dream.]

【Bad daddy, woo woo. 】

The emperor's excitement came to an abrupt end, and he didn't even dare to look into Lin Shu's eyes.

He felt that what Lin Shu said made sense. If someone showed him these weapons and told him that they were given to the enemy country and had nothing to do with him.

I'm afraid he'll only feel worse.

Thinking of this, the emperor stood there somewhat awkwardly.

Fortunately, the wet nurse appeared in time, took Lin Shu away to feed him, and thus eased the crisis between father and daughter.

The emperor secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw the wet nurse carrying the child away, he stealthily approached Manager Zhao.

"At what age can a baby eat?"

Manager Zhao's face froze for a moment, and then he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

How could he, a father-in-law without any roots, understand these things?

When the emperor saw the embarrassment and smirk on Manager Zhao's face, he clicked his tongue and walked away in disgust.

"You are so old and you don't know this. Oh. I'd better go ask Fubao's wet nurse."

The emperor called a wet nurse out to ask around and after learning that only babies aged six months old could eat liquid food, his desire to feed Lin Shu finally died.

He looked eagerly in the direction of Lin Shu and became worried.

Will Fubao really hate me?

Thinking of this, the emperor's straight back almost collapsed.

At the same time, he made up his mind to please Lin Shu.

After Lin Shu finished his feeding listlessly, he was sent to the emperor who was waiting eagerly.

The emperor took Lin Shu's hand skillfully and burped him.

My mind was spinning rapidly, wondering what Lin Shu liked?

How about asking Mo Jia to help make some toys? She would probably like them, right?

Thinking of this, the emperor decided to go there in person.

Unexpectedly, the secret guard came to report at this time.

The emperor dismissed everyone and listened to the report from the secret guard.

[The prisoner died? Which prisoner? ]

Lin Shu, who was eavesdropping openly, had completely forgotten who the secret guard was talking about.

The emperor was stunned for a moment before his memory slowly returned.

He once asked the secret guards to lock the bonsai together with the death row prisoners, to find out whether things were as Lin Shu had guessed.

But I didn’t expect that the death row prisoner would actually die.

The emperor's expression became more serious and his tone became colder.

"How did you die?"

The secret guard couldn't help but feel a little frightened when he recalled the scene.

The head hangs even lower.

"First the skin became red and swollen, then it ulcerated and fell off. The prisoner ended up with severe pain all over his body and difficulty breathing. He died in agony after two weeks."

The emperor was extremely angry, but he was afraid of scaring Lin Shu, so he couldn't show it. He took several deep breaths before suppressing his anger.

When Lin Shu heard this, he remembered the bonsai he saw in the warehouse.

[That bonsai really has radiation, my god, luckily my dad doesn't like it, otherwise I wouldn't have any chance to use it.]

[I guess my dad died before I even arrived.]

[That old guy is just taking advantage of others not knowing what radiation is and wants to kill Daddy invisibly, using this method. Too cruel.]

[But how did Dad find out? ]

[Although there are not many people in the warehouse on weekdays, there are still people guarding it. I don’t think someone has a problem and was discovered by Daddy.]

[That old guy really deserves to die. Poor guard.]

The emperor's heart skipped a beat as he listened to Lin Shu's inner thoughts. He thought his secret of eavesdropping on Lin Shu's thoughts was about to be exposed.

Unexpectedly, Lin Shu found an excuse himself, making the matter inexplicably reasonable.

Lin Shu looked at the emperor's nervous expression and thought that he was angry with old man Xin. He patted the emperor's chest with his little hand.

[No wonder Daddy is angry. If I tell anyone about this, no one might understand.]

[The Minister of Revenue will shirk responsibility when the time comes, as he has no knowledge of the matter, and might just pull someone out at random to take the blame.]

The emperor gradually calmed down, and he eliminated Prime Minister Qian and Marquis Mingyuan. If he used such unexplainable things to attack Minister Xin at this time.

I am afraid that other noble families will be deceived by Minister Xin and unite to rebel against him as the emperor.

But we can't just let him go like this.

If it were too obvious to give him the bonsai directly, he would definitely respond.

Lin Shu's little head was also constantly thinking, but what he was thinking was completely different from what his father was thinking.

[The body and the broken stone must be handled properly. If they are handled carelessly, it may lead to disaster. ]

[I remember that to deal with radiation, the body must be buried deep, away from groundwater sources. It would be best to burn the body to ashes first and then seal it in ceramic before burying it.]

Lin Shu uttered "Ah" softly.

[I don't know if the secret guards who are responsible for guarding the death row prisoners have any adverse reactions. 】

The emperor was attracted by Lin Shu's voice. He did not expect that this thing would be so harmful and require special treatment.

At the same time, it was Lin Shu's reminder that made him remember the safety of the secret guards.

"Is there anything wrong with the person in charge of observation?"

The secret guard felt warm in his heart, and then said: "According to your majesty's request, we only observe from a distance every few days, so no one is affected by the bonsai. Thank you for your concern, your majesty."

When the emperor heard that everything was fine, he nodded and asked the secret guards to leave.

It was at this time that Murong Xun asked for a meeting.

The emperor then remembered that he had also called Murong Xun to come and see the weapons sent by the Mohist School.

At this moment, his eyes lit up. With this fox here, could it help him think of how to deal with old man Xin?

Murong Xun looked at the crossbow handed to him by the young eunuch while listening to the emperor's request.

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he placed the items in his hand on the table with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, the answer is right before your eyes."

"Just give someone a taste of their own medicine."

The emperor was somewhat dissatisfied with this answer, "The old man must have been on guard against what he had been given."

Murong Xun lowered his eyes and took out the mechanical ball from his sleeve.

"I heard that the mechanical ball is also a mechanical box, which can hide tiny things."

"This thing is so exquisite that I can't open it. In addition, it has an exquisite shape and is a rare item. I have been playing with it in my hands these days."

After saying this, Murong Xun smiled ashamedly, "I am sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Majesty."

Lin Shu was confused by what he heard.

【What's the meaning? 】

The emperor laughed out loud and looked extremely satisfied.
