The Killer's Cleansing Manual
Chapter 15: Night Visit to the Princess's Mansion
"The Grand Tutor said this was a good opportunity for me to reprimand the ministers, so I thought of using official business as an excuse to divert their attention. It really worked!"
Xihe looked at his smug look and felt relieved.
This Taifu was originally an old minister of the previous emperor, who retired and returned to his hometown due to his advanced age.
Later, Qi Yili's studies never made any progress. She thought about it and decided that only this highly respected person could teach him, so she invited him back.
Now it seems that this decision was correct.
But the ministers' mouths could only be silenced temporarily, not forever. She still had a lot of things to do and didn't have the energy to deal with them one by one, so she continued to speak.
"Although this plan is good, it won't last long. I have found the right person, and I came here today to ask for your permission to marry me."
Qi Yili's smile froze: "Royal sister...why must you marry me?"
A flash of sadness flashed across Xihe's eyes, but it quickly calmed down.
Every woman wants to marry the person she loves and live a peaceful and stable life together.
At the beginning, Xihe did think so, but since her father passed away suddenly that year and the person she had placed high hopes on fled to the border, under the heavy pressure, these so-called "ordinary women's love fantasies" were completely shattered.
At this point in time, it would be a bit ironic to talk about a young girl in love.
"She's an ordinary person, a woman. If I marry her, the ministers in the court will no longer worry about me seizing the throne. Even if I participate in government affairs again, they won't be able to say anything. If you have any undecided matters, you can ask me again, and there will be less gossip."
He knew it was for him again.
Qi Yili was extremely unhappy and turned his eyes away, unwilling to do so:
"Why are you saying this again, sister? Didn't you say it last time? Now is not the time to do this. Why does sister have to sacrifice her own happiness..."
Xihe did not agree with him.
"Ali, we must always be prepared for danger. We can't let the danger surface before it surfaces and not take precautions. There are too many people watching me, and too many people watching you. We can't leave them even the slightest opportunity to take advantage of us."
Qi Yili sighed: I understand the logic, but I just feel uncomfortable.
"Sister Royal..."
"No need to say more. Even if you ask the Grand Tutor, he will say the same thing. Grant the marriage as soon as possible. It doesn't matter what the auspicious date is. I'm tired and will go back to rest."
Qi Yili quickly stood up: "But even if you want to paralyze them, you shouldn't marry a woman, right? My sister is of noble status, how can you..."
Xihe glanced at him expressionlessly, and Qi Yili immediately fell silent.
"Uh... okay, I know... I know."
Xihe turned his head, and Qi Yili looked at the slightly haggard profile of the woman in front of him, feeling vaguely guilty.
Since he came to power, the court has been full of good and bad people. His sister married the sons of powerful officials four times in succession to help him clean up the court. Although she never lost her virginity, her reputation was spread by word of mouth and became very bad.
She was unlucky in marriage and remarried many times. All the counselors in the palace were treated as her lovers.
She is a woman of extraordinary wisdom, a mind of the universe, and hidden talents, a rare sight in this world.
His elder sister took on the burdens that the eldest princess shouldn't have, just so that he could sit securely on the throne.
However, as a younger brother, what he hopes most is that his sister can find a good husband and live the rest of her life without worries.
Therefore, he must personally see what this person who has won the favor of the imperial sister is like. If he really catches him, he may be able to stop the imperial sister's plan.
Qi Yili watched Xihe being carried out of the palace by the palace servants. As soon as they left, he immediately called out, "Little Dunzi!"
The young eunuch was startled and almost stepped on the hem of his clothes. He rushed in frantically, "Your Majesty, I am here to give you your orders!"
Qi Yili's childish face showed a trace of calculation, "Let's go! Follow me to the princess's mansion in disguise!"
Xiaodunzi's heart skipped a beat, and he shouted "my mother" hundreds of times, finding an excuse for his reluctance:
"Your Majesty, you were discovered by the Moon Pavilion Leader last time. His Highness punished you by copying so many books, and now you still have to go. If His Highness finds out, he will punish you again..."
Qi Yili's face changed, and he put his finger to his lips and said "hush" hard.
"I just heard that the Imperial Sister brought back a prince consort, so I wanted to go and show some concern! Besides, Yuege Ling is not in the capital, so even if he is discovered again, it would just be copying books!"
Xiaodunzi wanted to cry but had no tears: "But if you are punished, the Grand Tutor will also be angry."
Qi Yili frowned but soon relaxed his brows, bent over and helped him up, and tried soft tactics if hard tactics didn't work:
"Even if I have to copy books, I still have you to help me. You certainly can't bear to watch the Grand Tutor punish me, right?"
Xiaodunzi risked his life to offer a warning: "My Majesty... If you really want to see it, we can just ask that person to come to the palace tomorrow. Why..."
Qi Yili's face showed a threat: "If you just call her here, how can you reveal her true nature? A private visit in disguise is more effective! Are you going with me or not? Are you scared?"
Xiaodunzi didn't dare to advise him anymore, so he had to resign himself to his fate and find a set of eunuch clothes for him.
into the night.
The two of them sneaked to the princess's mansion as if they were familiar with the place and came to the lowest wall.
Xiaodunzi sighed. He got used to the same business after doing it so many times. He found a clean place and knelt on the ground to use as a step.
Qi Yili stepped on his back with satisfaction, grabbed the bricks and tiles, and with the strength of the little dungaree to stand up, he struggled to flip to the other side of the wall.
Xiaodunzi's face was distorted by being stepped on. He helped the emperor up and then climbed in with great effort by clinging to the willow tree.
They thought their whereabouts were secret, but they didn't expect that Lin Shanjuan had already seen everything.
The first rule a professional killer must follow is that no matter where he is, he must be absolutely familiar with his environment and must never make low-level mistakes like getting lost!
So she wandered around after dinner, and although she noticed people were watching her, she didn't care.
Maybe she just doubted her origins. After all, she didn't do anything wrong. She was just enjoying the scenery. What else can he do to her?
I didn't expect to see such fun. Those two were very alert and knew the patrol time and route of the princess's mansion very well. They waited until the patrol guards left before jumping down from the wall, startling a chorus of insects.
Qi Yili simply identified the direction and guessed that the new prince consort would probably be arranged in a side hall. In order to avoid the patrolling palace soldiers, he climbed over a low wall.
However, just as his feet touched the ground and he was about to quietly approach the side hall, a woman's voice suddenly came from above his head.
"It's not decent to come to someone's house at night without bringing something, right?"
The slightly low voice startled them both. They looked around for a long time before they saw the woman sitting on the eaves.
