Quick Transmigration: My Host's Darling Little Darling

Chapter 40 The Disabled General VS The Puppet Emperor 16

Sheng Yuan finally managed to coax the person to calm down and then coax them to finish their dinner.

When Xiao Shi came in, he saw His Majesty and General Xie acting all lovey-dovey again, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Since learning about His Majesty and General Xie's affair, Xiao Shi has seen His Majesty getting better and better, and he sighed that His Majesty's suffering has finally come to an end. He hopes that His Majesty can always be happy and blessed.

Yuan Chen said he hadn't realized it yet, but it didn't matter.

"Ah Yuan, are you going to see him?" Sheng Yuan was about to go to the side courtyard to check on him when Lin Sui asked nervously.

Lin Sui believed Sheng Yuan's explanation, but still didn't want him to meet that person alone.

Sheng Yuan saw through his thoughts, so he stretched out his hands to him and said, "There are still some things I need to explain to him. Would you like to come with me, darling?"

"Mm." Lin Sui nodded and put his arms around his neck. When there were no outsiders, Lin Sui rarely got out of bed and walked on his own. When there were outsiders, he would be very well-behaved. But he was going to assert his dominance, so he was carried to the side courtyard by Sheng Yuan.

When Sheng Yuan and Lin Sui arrived at the side courtyard, A Heng had already changed into new clothes and was sitting on the edge of the bed, his eyes red as he stared straight at the woman on the bed, with a tall silver wolf sitting next to him.

When Lin Sui saw the silver wolf, he was startled and shrank into Sheng Yuan's arms.

"Don't worry, its name is Xiaobai, it won't bite you, you can pet it." Shengyuan patted its head and coaxed it.

Lin Suigong got off Sheng Yuan's back and carefully reached out his hand. When the silver wolf saw him reach out, it lowered its head to let him pet it, and was exceptionally obedient.

Sheng Yuan held Lin Sui's hand as Lin Sui played with Xiao Bai. Sheng Yuan softened his voice as much as possible: "If nothing unexpected happens, Yuan Li will wake up in the next couple of days. She will be fine. This courtyard is safe now. Don't leave this courtyard until she wakes up."

The entire courtyard was protected by a barrier set up by Sheng Yuan, preventing demonic forces from entering for a short period of time.

“…Thank you.” Ah Heng heard Sheng Yuan’s voice and seemed to have been thinking hard for a while before replying.

"No need for thanks." Sheng Yuan seemed to remember something and asked, "I still don't know your name, young master. May I ask?"

Ah Heng paused for a moment, then said, "My name is Song Cheng, courtesy name Youheng, and I am a candidate for the imperial examination."

"I see. Young Master Song must have lofty ambitions?"

"nature."

Sheng Yuan didn't speak again, nodded, and then said to Lin Sui, "Baby, the silver wolf isn't clean, don't touch it for too long. It's getting late, time to bathe and go to bed."

After listening, Lin Sui put his hand away, looked up and stood behind Sheng Yuan. Then he looked at the man sitting by the bed. The man also glanced at him and bowed, saying, "Student Song Cheng greets Your Majesty."

"No gift."

Lin Sui observed him carefully and found that the man bore a slight resemblance to him.

Maybe I saw it wrong.

"We'll discuss the specifics after Yuan Li wakes up. You all should get some rest. We'll be leaving now."

"Respectfully seeing off Your Majesty, thank you, Young General."

Shengyuan and Lin walked out of the side courtyard hand in hand.

Just now, there were observations from afar and from Songcheng.

Song Cheng seemed somewhat dazed, his mind completely focused on his wife, and even his responses to He Shengyuan were somewhat slow.

Sheng Yuan's gaze showed more concern than affection, and even a hint of respect.

He didn't quite understand, but as long as Sheng Yuan hadn't betrayed him, that was enough.

Lin Sui took a bath in her own courtyard, while Sheng Yuan went to Chen Fu's place.

When Sheng Yuan arrived, all the ministers were present. Chen Fu concluded that the case was a frame-up, and the regent was cleared of suspicion and removed from the list. However, regardless of the circumstances, he had gotten himself into a lot of trouble.

Sheng Yuan didn't think this assassin could do anything to Lin Ze; he just wanted to justify the man's death and throw mud at him.

After finishing his business, Sheng Yuan returned to the Zhenguo Duke's family's courtyard. Without lingering, he took a bath and then teleported to Lin Sui's courtyard.

When Sheng Yuan opened the door, he saw Lin Sui sitting on the soft couch, reciting the lessons Qi Yuanhe had assigned him, yawning as he did so, and nodding occasionally.

"You're here!"

Sheng Yuan picked him up and led him to bed: "Okay. Get some rest. If you can't finish memorizing, there's always tomorrow."

"Ah."

"It's best not to leave the courtyard for the next two days. If you must leave, tell me and I'll accompany you," Sheng Yuan instructed.

"I see."

Lin Sui found a comfortable spot in Sheng Yuan's arms and fell asleep.

The next day, according to the ritual, passed peacefully.

But often, the calmer the situation, the more it foreshadows impending danger.

It happened at night.

Sheng Yuan was playing chess with Lin Sui in the courtyard. The night was quiet, but Lin Sui was frowning, holding a black chess piece, and occasionally looking up to observe Sheng Yuan's expression, hesitating where to place the piece.

Sheng Yuan simply gazed at him with doting affection.

Playing chess with experienced players is about the thrill of the game, the enjoyment of the game itself; playing with beginners is about the fun of the game, the enjoyment of the players themselves.

Watching the person in front of him rack their brains to think, Sheng Yuan just found it adorable.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

Chen Fu's subordinates rushed over.

"What's the rush?" Lin Sui was about to place his piece when he heard someone shout, which startled him so much that he dropped his black piece. He was displeased.

"When Lord Chen was on his inspection tour, he heard some strange noises coming from a courtyard. When he opened the door, he found His Highness the Regent... just..."

"Get to the point! What are you doing, a grown man being so hesitant?" Lin Sui was already annoyed by his stammering, and this only made him more annoyed. He shouted sternly.

"His Highness and a dozen nuns were... in the courtyard, disheveled and playing around!"

Lin Sui was shocked and exclaimed, his eyes wide, "What? How could my royal brother do this?"

After saying that, he pulled Sheng Yuan along and had his subordinate lead the way to that courtyard.

When Lin Sui and Sheng Yuan arrived, many officials and the abbot of the national temple were already there.

Linze was disheveled, his face was flushed, and he looked utterly dejected. The nuns in the courtyard were scattered about, most of them wearing only a thin inner garment, their bare shoulders exposed.

Sheng Yuan reached out and covered Lin Sui's eyes, blocking his view.

"Don't look at this dirty thing."

Lin Sui originally wanted to pry his hands off, but after hearing his deep voice, she lowered her hands.

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, and I dare not make a decision on my own. Therefore, I have asked someone to trouble Your Majesty to come and take charge of the situation!" Chen Fu felt that this matter concerned the face of the royal family and should have been kept secret. However, the officials and the abbot arrived suddenly, and he had no control over the situation.

Lin Ze had irrefutable evidence and wanted to defend himself by saying he had been drugged, but when the imperial physician arrived, he said he had not been drugged, and Lin Ze was stunned.

Nuonuo, sitting on Shengyuan's shoulder, said: Of course, no one can find out. The host is controlling it with divine power, so no one can find out.

Linze was indeed drugged by the nuns here, but Shengyuan used magic to erase the traces of the drug.

They're all people unwilling to be confined to this impoverished place. Since they've chosen to resort to despicable means, they should bear the risk of exposure.

Finally, under pressure from everyone, the emperor stripped the regent of his political power and ordered him to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion. As for the nun, she was handed over to the abbot of the state temple for handling.

At this point, how could Lin Ze not sense that his good younger brother had already made his move, and that stripping him of his power was only the first step?

Lin Sui, since you are so ungrateful for blocking my way, don't blame me for being impolite!

Lin Sui and Sheng Yuan returned to the courtyard together. Having achieved their goal, Lin Sui felt much relieved when he thought of Lin Ze's face, which had turned from green to red to black to green again.

"Your Majesty, General Xie, Young Master Song's wife has woken up and wants to see you," Xiao Shi reported as soon as they entered.

"Let's go."

Shengyuan took Linsui's hand and walked into the side courtyard.

"Yuan Li, it's been a long time."

"Long time no see, your voice is distant."
