Chapter 236 The Old Emperor's Charm Remains

"Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating! Did I raise you to be a glutton?!"

Hu Meimei, who was happily serving Tu Su fish, suddenly trembled when she heard these humiliating words, and the fish meat that she had carefully removed the bones from fell onto the table with a thud.

She was filled with disbelief and grievance. Thinking of the cold violence she had suffered since leaving Qingqiu, Hu Meimei could no longer hold back her tears.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? Why do you want to humiliate me like this? Is there something I haven't done well enough?"

Tu Su became even more upset when he saw that Hu Meimei just cried and refused to express herself at all.

The biggest reason why he chose to take Hu Meimei with him when he fled from the north was because he remembered the words of the Taoist priest very clearly - this woman is His Majesty's right-hand man.

But seeing that so many days have passed, he has given all the benefits he could to Hu Meimei, but this woman is as cunning as her real self!

All he did all day was eat and sleep. No matter how many people he sent to test her, Hu Meimei acted as if nothing had happened. She stayed in her palace and never went out of the main gate or the secondary gate.

It was not at all like what Huang Tianshi said, that he would assist him wholeheartedly and use his demonic power to block countless assassinations for him.

Seeing that the course of events was completely different from what was originally predicted, Tu Su was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and even a few blisters appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Damn Hu Meimei, so cunning!

All he does all day is eat meat and sleep, and doesn't help him block the assassination at all!

Since returning to the palace, Tu Su has encountered countless assassination attempts from various forces, and the secret guards around him are almost all lost.

However, Hu Meimei still looked ignorant and ineffective, keeping herself out of the matter. How could Tu Su not be anxious?

She was such a useful chess piece in the plan, but now she is like a disgusting pile of shit, stinking. Why does he still keep her?

You should know that another young lady from a noble family who also holds the position of imperial concubine has already offered him 10,000 soldiers and all the power of their noble family.

And the concubines in his harem, whether big or small, all have their own value.

Some provided him with food and fodder, some operated official salt to make money for themselves, and some provided him with weapons...

Tu Su's attitude towards concubines depends entirely on their own value, but Hu Meimei, who has no other property and no family support, is an exception.

If Tu Su had not always believed that she was a treasure, he would never have endured until now, let alone performed a loving and affectionate couple relationship with her every day.

Because Tu Su knew clearly that he was the master of this world, so what kind of woman could he not have?

For a person like Hu Meimei, he could attract a lot of people with just a wave of his hand. If he hadn't thought she was still useful, Tu Su would not have been so tolerant.

Today was the last test. Hu Meimei's behavior completely chilled Tu Su's heart. He grabbed Hu Meimei's neck and asked her harshly,

"Have you really lost all your demonic power? Tell me, what else can you do for me now?!"

Hu Meimei's face turned red due to suffocation, and tears kept dripping down like a flood. She struggled hard to defend herself.

"That day I returned all the demon pills to my grandmother. Your Majesty, didn't you see it all?

Didn't you say you would grow old with me? Didn't you say you wouldn't mind me losing my magical powers and becoming a mortal?

Thinking of the promise he had been forced to make due to the circumstances, Tu Su was furious as if his dark history had been exposed.

"That was then, and now is now! I coaxed you back then because I thought you were useful, but don't you see what a mess you are in now? You still dare to bring up the past with me!"

Tu Su threw Hu Meimei to the ground rudely, and the flame of hope in his heart was completely extinguished.

After knowing that Hu Meimei was of no use to him, Tu Su gave up completely and gave instructions before leaving.

"Concubine Mei has committed insubordination and is demoted to Zhaoyi. She is not allowed to leave the palace without my permission!"

Leaving behind Hu Meimei's heart-wrenching cries to stay, Tu Su strode away without looking back.

If he had known Hu Meimei was so useless, he wouldn't have come here and wasted his time.

There are so many women in the harem waiting for him to favor them. Which concubine should he favor and how should he make them willingly hand over their family power and stand with him? This is Tu Su's final plan.

Now the second prince in the south is taking advantage of the attack by the southern barbarians and the garrison troops being unable to withdraw, and is shouting that he wants to avenge the old emperor and purge the court.

The fifth prince who was guarding the west also heard about this matter. He scraped together an army of 30,000 and wanted to attack the Central Plains.

Although the four princes in the east have not made any move for the time being, Tu Su knows clearly in his heart that as brothers, they are all tough guys.

He is not taking any action now, one reason being that he wants to show his loyalty to himself temporarily, and the other is that he wants to benefit from the conflict between the snipe and the clam.

As for the North, when Tu Su thought of the humiliating experience in the dungeon, he gritted his teeth and wished he could kill Chen Yuanzhen.

No, killing her directly would be too easy for her!

Chen Yuanzhen actually dared to lock him up in the dungeon and humiliate him. Tu Su must avenge this!

Considering that Chen Yuanzhen was running the business in the north very well, and even the tens of thousands of troops stationed at Yumen Pass mysteriously disappeared, it was most likely related to her.

Tu Su became a little more wary of Chen Yuanzhen, but deep down he looked down on Chen Yuanzhen from the bottom of his heart.

After all, in Master Huang Tianshi's words, this woman was also a devoted lover who devoted her whole life to him, she was just a more useful chess piece.

In addition, there are indeed not many people who can be used at the moment, so Tu Su decided to give Chen Yuanzhen one last chance.

Humph, this woman must not have seen his charm, so she didn't fall at his feet.

Isn't love and status what women want? As long as she can help him secure the throne, what's wrong with giving her the title of queen?

If that doesn't work, I can just knock her down later...

...

"Isn't it just a position in the harem? I, no, I will give it to him!"

Chen Yuanzhen was a little drunk and started bragging.

Fortunately, there were only Lin Miao, Yao Zhi and Liu Xiangru in the room, and everyone was feeling euphoric from the warm steam from the hot pot.

After a few sips of wine, the four of them felt a little sleepy, and no one paid attention to Chen Yuanzhen's outrageous words.

Chen Yuanzhen felt that he could let go of himself, so he ran to Lin Miao and started to play memes.

"I think the young emperor is youthful and cute, and the old emperor still has his charm!"

When Lin Miao heard her words, he knew she was playing a joke on the question, "If you had 100,000 soldiers in ancient times, would you be loyal to the emperor?"

So he was holding his stomach and giggling, and even scolding Chen Yuanzhen because he was really hungry.

But Liu Xiangru didn't understand at all. He spit out all the wine he hadn't swallowed yet, and pointed at Chen Yuanzhen in shock.

"You, you have no shame. How old is the old emperor this year? And you actually say that he still has his charm???"

If Chen Yuanzhen was sober on ordinary days, he would definitely not argue with this ignorant ancient monster.

But she was drunk now, and her temper started to rise, so she started to argue with Liu Xiangru.

"Bah! What the hell is shame? Can you even eat it? Not only do I want to arrest them, I also want to be the queen! What's it to you!"

Liu Xiangru was speechless after hearing these words. He really couldn't do anything about it because he was just a general leading troops.

Fearing that the two would have a rift and cause Liu Xiangru to become estranged from them, Lin Miao quickly acted as a peacemaker and persuaded both sides.

After sending Chen Yuanzhen back to the room, Yao Zhi also took Liu Xiangru away, leaving Lin Miao alone to slowly clean up the leftovers.

Thinking of the 30,000 points that he had not yet received, Lin Miao hummed a little tune, happily clicked to receive the task reward, and refreshed the task.

After reading Task 7, Lin Miao frowned slightly, but after pondering the system's intentions, he guessed that this world probably only had nine tasks at most.

Because Task 7 explicitly required Lin Miao to assist Chen Yuanzhen in gaining jurisdiction over Yumen Pass.

The reason why Yumen Pass was an important frontier fortress in the Sheng Dynasty was because it was the most important checkpoint defense line to the north.

Once they entered Yumen Pass, Kyoto would no longer have a solid defense, and the army could go directly south to change the dynasty.

But at the same time, Lin Miao was worried that as long as they dared to go south and occupy Yumen Pass, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the entire Sheng Dynasty.

Will Tu Su and his group of prince brothers who claim to be the orthodox princes of the Sheng Dynasty join forces to fight back against them?

Now their strength is limited, and Lin Miao is not in a hurry to complete the mission and return, so she decided to take an unconventional approach.
