The scheming empress starts by conquering men

Peace returned to the yard again.

Jia Er walked in quickly.

"Master, there is a situation."

Shaodian Sishui said to Zhong Moyao, "I'm going to the front yard to take care of some business first, don't wait for me for dinner."

Without waiting for Zhong Moyao to respond, she looked at Yan Xi beside her.

"Take good care of your son."

After giving the order, he turned and walked out.

Until they arrived at the study in the front yard, Shaodian Sishui's eyes were fixed on Jia Er.

"What's the matter?"

Jia Er bowed and saluted.

"My Lord, Ji Xingchen went to Zhaixing Tower and wants to see you."

Shaodian Sishui paused and looked at her with displeasure.

"not see."

Jia Er received the order and spoke again.

"Two days ago, the people from the Palace Front Department drew a portrait of the master in disguise and searched the whole city for him."

"Just now, they found the teahouse that the master went to, and the owner of the teahouse was arrested."

Shaodian Si Shui frowned slightly, he didn't expect that the people from the Palace Front Department would act so quickly.

Seeing His Highness was silent, Jia Er continued, "I am afraid that she will confess if she cannot bear the torture, so I have ordered people to deal with her secretly. Her family lives in the west of the city, and I have also sent people to kill them."

"How dare you! Who allowed you to make the decision on your own?"

Shaodian Sishui glanced at Jiaer with full of hostility.

"Stop the person who is trying to silence her immediately, and send someone to secretly tell the shopkeeper that I will take good care of her family and let her go in peace."

Jia Er took the order, turned around and left to give orders to His Highness.

Fortunately, she arrived in time and the shopkeeper's family was saved.

She was originally going to go back to the palace to report, but she happened to meet someone from the Magpie Gate who came out of the gambling house and was going to the Sixth Princess's palace to deliver a message.

Jia Er received the message and returned to the mansion again.

Shaodian Sishui was writing a memorial in the study. She wanted to report the snow disaster in Nanyu to Emperor Feng in advance.

Originally, she didn't intend to say it, but in order to divert the attention of the Palace Front Department, she had to bring the matter of the snow disaster to light.

Moreover, even if she told Emperor Feng about the snow disaster, he would never believe her, but would seek the advice of the great sorcerer before making a decision.

Jia Er came in and bowed again.

"Master, the Magpie Gate has reported."

"Wen Wuwei will secretly go to Zhaixing Tower tonight, and he has also booked the four top stars of Zhaixing Tower in advance, and asked Feng, Hua, Xue, and Yue to accompany him."

After Shaodian Sishui finished writing the memorial in his hand, he put down his pen, looked up at Jia Er.

"So, she took the bait?"

Booking in advance means paying a deposit in advance and then paying all the money after playing.

Wen Ren is an honest official, and Wen Wuwei does not have enough money to play with the four top players at the same time.

"Yes, the people from the Magpie Sect have been following secretly. According to your highness's instructions, they deliberately set up a trap to let Wen Wuwei win money in the gambling house, and spread the news that your highness asked Feng, Hua, Xue, and Yue to accompany you when you entered the Zhaixing Tower. Wen Wudi got playful and followed your highness's example and selected four people."

"It's only enough for the reservation, not the balance. She's still in the gambling house and wants to win more."

Dare to get it for free without the final payment? She is really worthy of being called Wen Wuwei, and she really lives up to her lustful nature.

Shaodian Sishui blew away the ink and put the memorials away bit by bit.

"This is a good thing to do. Since she wants to reserve it, let her reserve it."

"As for the gambling house, let her lose. Tell the people from Zhaixing Tower to let her win some when they go to the gambling house to urge her. After the people from Zhaixing Tower leave, let her continue to lose. Find a way to make her bet on the Wen family's current residence and ancestral home. The more she loses, the better."

There are so many that even if Wenren sacrificed everything in the mansion, he still couldn't fill this gap.

She just wanted to see which one she would choose between her daughter and being loyal to the emperor and honest.

"Well, I will send some people there."

"No, you go yourself."

Shaodian Sishui was afraid that something unexpected might happen, so he asked Jiaer to go in person.

"Well, I'll go right away."

After changing his appearance, Jia Er left the house. His figure was graceful and his steps were sometimes slow and sometimes fast.

He easily shook off the little tail behind him and headed towards the gambling house in the south of the city.

She walked quietly to the back door of the gambling house and knocked three times in a regular pattern.

The door opened with a creak, and a woman in her thirties opened it. She looked at the strange woman in front of her warily.

"Who are you looking for?"

Chapter 2: "In March, you wear flowers in your hair, and in October, you remove dust."

The woman's expression changed drastically, her pupils contracted, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she looked up and down at the woman in front of her.

"A magpie in spring soars like an eagle in winter."

She looked around a few times, then quickly took a step back, saying respectfully, "I am the manager of the Xi Que Gate. I am honored to meet Master Que Shou. Please come in, sir."

Jia Er had a cold expression on his face, put his hands behind his back, and walked in straightly.

After the door was closed, the two of them walked into the house one after the other.

"Is Wen Wuwei still here?" Jia Er asked.

The woman said, "Yes, I've been letting her win. How can she bear to leave?"

Jia Er gave her a cold look.

"The master ordered that she lose, and when the people from Zhaixing Tower come to urge her, let her win something sweet, and then let her continue to lose after the people from Zhaixing Tower leave. The more she loses, the better. If she has no money, we will find a way to make her owe us money. The more she owes, the better. It would be best if she bets all of the Wen family's wealth, including the Wen family's ancestral home in Bianjing and their hometown."

"This..." The woman hesitated for a moment; "Well, I will personally take action."

Although it is a little difficult, she will do whatever it takes to accomplish what her master asks her to do and to satisfy her master.

After the woman finished speaking, she straightened her clothes and walked into the casino with a proud look on her face.

When the thugs inside saw her coming, they quickly made way and shouted at her with their heads down.

"Ear mother."

The woman's name was Yizi'er. She was the boss behind the gambling house. Everyone who knew her respectfully called her Er Niang.

He was once a member of the Chuchen Sect, one of the six law enforcement sects, responsible for eliminating evil.

Now he has become a member of the Magpie Gate, specializing in intelligence.

The reason why she transferred from the Chuchen Gate to the Xique Gate was also because of her name, Yizier.

There is a long scar on Er Niang's left eyebrow, and her left ear was cut off. The scar extends all the way to the back of the left head. It is very long, and there is no hair at the injured area.

For the sake of beauty, she deliberately left a few strands of hair on the left side of her temples to cover the scar on the left side of her head and to conceal her left ear and left eyebrow.

Whenever the wind blows, her terrifying appearance can still be vaguely seen through her hair.

However, because of the hair covering the entire face, the overall look gives people a gloomy feeling.

The casino was in a mess, with a mixed smell. The air was filled with the stench of sweat and even feet.

Each gambler looked focused and shouted as he placed his bet.

One ear waved to the person next to him and whispered in his ear.

But his eyes were looking in the direction of Wen Wuwei.

"Remember?"

The subordinates immediately understood and nodded.

"Go ahead and make her spit out what she won."

The men walked in obediently.

Looking at the backs of his men, he stood there, one ear hugging his chest, watching.

Although she wanted to take action, it was not now and she had to wait a little longer.

Inside the gambling house, Wen Wuwei was surrounded by a group of onlookers, all of whom were idle gamblers.

One of the women smiled and flattered.

"Miss Wen, you are so lucky today. Whether you bet big or small, I will follow your bet."

"Yes, I'll bet on it too, and I can win more."

Wen Wuwei glared at the first person who spoke with dissatisfaction.

"What do you mean by good luck? I'm really awesome. Do you understand?"
