The First Tyrant of Daxia

Tang Ruyu slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with tears, looking extremely sad and beautiful.

An oval face, full of charm.

"you…"

"Ahem." Qin Yun was a little embarrassed for a moment. He looked at Zheng Ruyu and didn't know how to start. It felt like he was forcing him with authority.

He doesn't like this and prefers mutual consent.

Old Feng and Eunuch Xi looked at each other and immediately figured out the emperor's intention.

"Your Majesty, since we can't get anything out of her, why not ask her on another day? Keep her in the palace for now." Old Feng bowed.

Eunuch Xi also stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, let me do this."

Detained in the palace, these five words are full of profound meaning.

A trace of shyness flashed across Zheng Ruyu's face. She was nervous and didn't know what to do, so she lowered her head, her mind full of random thoughts.

Qin Yun looked very embarrassed. How come his little thoughts were guessed by his close ministers so quickly?

He stroked his chin, picked up a memorial, and said nonchalantly, "Well... OK, let's do as you two say."

Eunuch Xi smiled and immediately hinted to Zheng Ruyu: "Why don't you thank the emperor?"

Zheng Ruyu woke up as if from a dream. She bit her red lips and said at a loss, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness."

Qin Yun waved his hand: "Let's go."

Afterwards, Eunuch Xi took Zheng Ruyu away and found a medium-sized palace for her to use as her bedroom.

Along the way, he was persuading Zheng Ruyu and giving hints to her.

Let her follow the rules and persuade her to listen to His Majesty, so that she can save her life and the future of the Zheng family. If she is lucky, she may be able to transform herself like Concubine Yao and become the most honorable person in the harem.

Zheng Ruyu was a little resistant at first. After all, she was the lady of the Lin family, and she couldn't accept obeying the emperor at this time.

But when she heard that Pei Yao became a royal concubine, she became interested.

Lin Changshu ignored her and never touched her, so she is still a virgin until now.

Lin Changshu only cares about that brothel girl, which has made her resentful for many years. If she could obey the emperor in exchange for the safety of her family and have the hope of becoming a royal concubine, it would not be impossible.

She sighed deeply, lowered her brows, and finally gritted her teeth and accepted Eunuch Xi's arrangement.

It was almost nightfall when Eunuch Xi returned to the imperial study to report.

At this time, Qin Yun was meeting with He Xiu and Chang Hong.

They were talking about matters concerning the army and the defense of the imperial palace. The place where one sleeps must be well protected.

"That's it for today, General He. I grant you the power of life and death. You can kill any general of the Right Camp who dares to disobey you first and report later."

"If you have any needs regarding the city defense, Chang Hong, you can also communicate with He Xiu."

"The safety of my palace, both inside and outside, is now in the hands of the two of you. When I purge the powerful officials, I will not forget you two."

He Xiu and Chang Hong were shocked, and both knelt on the ground, shouting: "We will obey your majesty's order and serve you till our death!"

Qin Yun smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand, and let the two go.

Wait until the imperial study becomes quiet.

Eunuch Xi stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. I asked the old maid in the palace to check Zheng Ruyu and confirmed that she is clean."

"Besides, I have also enlightened her."

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that this old eunuch really understood him and could handle everything from start to finish.

"Well, that's good. Go get the twenty taels of gold later. This is my reward for you. Do a good job."

Eunuch Xi looked very happy. As eunuchs, they could not be humane, and what they loved most was money.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Qin Yun stood up and stretched. His waist felt a little sore after sitting for a whole day.

Eunuch Xi stepped forward immediately and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't turned over the cards yet. Are you going to the Concubine Shu's place or the Zheng family girl's place?"

"Ask the Imperial Study to prepare something good. I will go to Concubine Shu's place to have a meal with her, and then go to Zheng Ruyu's place."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Eunuch Xi was quick and efficient and immediately asked several young eunuchs to pass on the message.

After one stick of incense, we arrived at the Yangxin Palace.

"Your Majesty, I miss you so much." Concubine Xiao Shu threw herself into Qin Yun's arms.

She had been worried all night about such a big thing that happened last night. This morning she received news that the rebellion had failed and a large number of powerful officials had fallen, which made her very happy.

If she hadn't been afraid that Qin Yun was busy, she would have dragged her injuries to the imperial study to find Qin Yun.

Qin Yun stroked her soft hair, greedily sniffed her body fragrance, and said softly: "Isn't I here? The Yangxin Palace is almost becoming my bedroom, why are you still so reluctant to leave me?"

Concubine Xiao Shu showed a happy smile: "Your Majesty, Xiang'er will miss you if she doesn't see you for half an incense stick of time."

Qin Yun smiled and hugged her as he sat down, saying, "How is your injury? Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore. The wound is healing quickly." said Concubine Xiao Shufei.

Qin Yun nodded and took out a letter from his arms.

"It just arrived. Your eldest brother sent it back urgently. Take a look."

Concubine Xiao Shu took a look and reached out to look, but then withdrew her hand and frowned, saying, "This... I'd better not look at it. After all, it's military intelligence."

After the last impeachment, she became extremely cautious, fearing that something might happen.

Qin Yun put away the letter and dictated: "In the great victory at Cangshan, more than 10,000 bandits were killed or wounded, and most of them fled everywhere. Your elder brother won a great victory, and will return to the court after the victory!"

"Really? So soon?" Concubine Xiao Shufei's brows were filled with joy, and her beautiful eyes shone with a brilliance that had not been seen for a long time.

"Your elder brother is extremely brave, and the bandits are just chickens and dogs. This is within my expectations."

"When your elder brother comes back, I will have a reason to promote him. Those old fence-sitters in the Ministry of War should also give way. When the situation is more stable, I will make you my queen!"

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao Shu was stunned for a moment, then seemed a little surprised and at a loss.

Her face flushed, her eyes dodged as she said, "Your Majesty, I have never thought of becoming the queen. As for the position of the mother of the country, Xiang'er doesn't think she has the ability to do that..."

Seeing her wanting to refuse but wanting to, Qin Yun couldn't help but smile and reached out to scratch her delicate nose.

"As long as I say yes, who dares to say no!"

"This position of Queen belongs to you. It's just a matter of time. This is my guarantee!"

Concubine Xiao Shu's heart beat faster and her face flushed. She was the queen, the mistress of the harem. The entire Xiao family would benefit from her. How could she not be happy?

She suppressed her emotions, immediately bowed, and said softly: "Thank you, Brother Yun, for your love. I have no way to repay you."

"Haha, when you recover from your injury, give me a son as soon as possible as a reward."

Concubine Xiao Shu's face turned even redder, her thick eyelashes fluttered, revealing a hopeful look: "I will definitely make Brother Yun proud."

"Hahaha!" Qin Yun laughed and looked at the table full of delicious food: "Eat, eat!"

"..."

In the evening, after dinner.

Qin Yun accompanied Concubine Xiao Shufei for a while, and then went to Shengqing Palace, where Zheng Ruyu was temporarily living.
