Even if you wear fast female accessories, you should also be brave enough to look bad

Chapter 499 Regent, please stay (47)

The Empress's Standing Ceremony is approaching, and the Ministry of Rites has been busy preparing for various matters.

Yun Qian accidentally met the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette during the preparation stage. All kinds of things had to be prepared. Everyone was busy for this important event.

Yun's father has been much freer these days, but one day when he returned home, his face was extremely ugly. Yun Qian came out of the yard to go find Yun Mu, and happened to run into Yun's father.

"Dad, you look a little ugly. What happened?" Yun Qian asked.

Father Yun shook his head solemnly and sighed: "Let's go to the study and talk."

……

In the study room, after a brief silence, Father Yun spoke: "In the past few days, during the court meeting, Prime Minister Liu seemed to be deliberately targeting our group, finding faults, and even unfounded things could be said as if they were true. ."

"Today, you said that we embezzled the taxes paid by the people. If the emperor hadn't seen everything clearly, he would have said it."

Embezzling taxes is not a trivial matter. Yun Qian squinted her eyes, thinking that Prime Minister Liu was really a villain.

Yun Qian comforted him: "He can't say anything without any evidence. My father has been an honest official all his life and I'm not afraid of what they say."

"I'm afraid it's him who is doing some shameful things."

Father Yun sighed again and said worriedly: "What kind of thing? Qianqian, please don't do anything dangerous."

"Don't worry, dad." Yun Qian smiled, her eyes calm, "My daughter knows what's going on."

In fact, it is not a danger, I just want to use some means to let Prime Minister Liu experience the feeling of being falsely accused.

It's time to put some things on the agenda, Yun Qian thought.

---

Prime Minister Liu followed the servant's guidance and walked into a private room in the brothel. The private room was in the corner of the second floor, and few people usually came around.

As soon as he entered the private room, he saw the man sitting in the middle of the table hugging him from left to right.

"Sir, have a grape."

"Why are you eating grapes? Come on, sir, have a drink~"

The girls' voices seemed to be charming to the core, and the men they fed had an expression of ecstasy, and they would not refuse anything they fed.

There was a scar on the corner of the man's eyebrow that extended to the stork bone. He looked uneasy and said in a rough voice: "Don't worry, don't worry, come one by one."

Laughter filled the entire room. Prime Minister Liu's character was not very attractive, but he did not dare to say anything because that man was the leader of Shadow Killer and the one he cooperated with.

The long-handled scimitar at the man's waist could kill him at any moment.

Prime Minister Liu coughed lightly, the girls looked towards him, and the men also looked at him.

The man finished the grape in his mouth without interest and patted the girls on the shoulders: "Go down first, I will see you later."

"Please remember, sir, the sisters are waiting for you." The girls left with eyebrows raised.

Prime Minister Liu sat down opposite the man, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice, and his eyebrows furrowed: "The people outside are very strict with Killing Shadow, why do you always choose to meet in this kind of place?"

The man sneered and slapped the knife at his waist on the table, "The Prime Minister is a big shot, so naturally he looks down on this kind of place."

"But for me, this kind of place is full of people and a lot of fun."

The man's careless smile made Prime Minister Liu even more angry.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Prime Minister Liu asked.

"I didn't expect the Prime Minister to be so cheerful, so I won't hold back," the man laughed twice, not angry at Prime Minister Liu's secret impatience.

"Our shadow master said that Shadow Killer has done so many things for you, this price...can you mention it?"

Killing Shadow collects money to do things, and the more bounties there are, the more people will take on the tasks, but they are all the same type of people, and they are all greedy.

Prime Minister Liu glared, "I just increased the price for you last time!"

The man "tsk-tsk" twice, and raised the eyebrow on the scarred side, showing more ferocity, "Sir, the tasks you gave us are all about licking blood on the tip of a knife. This kind of money is somewhat worth it..."

Prime Minister Liu knew what he was saying, so he gritted his teeth. Cooperating with Killing Shadow was a risky business. Prime Minister Liu had known it for a long time, but he still did it.

"What do you mean? I haven't asked you yet how you assassinated my daughter last time!" Prime Minister Liu suppressed his anger.

The man smiled nonchalantly and said, "That's a task assigned to someone else, and it's none of my business."

People in Killing Shadows walk alone, taking on tasks individually and collecting bounties.

Prime Minister Liu could not find the words to refute for a while.

"How about it? Prime Minister, if you miss this village, you won't be able to find this store. Please think about it carefully." The man said with a smile.

Prime Minister Liu looked at the exquisite teacup on the table in front of him and was silent for a moment. After a moment, he raised his head and said, "I agree to your request, and please do your best to handle my affairs."

"That's natural. After working together for such a long time, the Prime Minister still doesn't know who I am?"

Prime Minister Liu's eyes were dark, he was a hungry wolf who didn't know how to be satisfied.

The man told Prime Minister Liu some of the information he wanted, "That's about it, and you asked us to investigate the regent..."

"The regent is careful in his work, and there are many secret guards. Our people can't find anything, and it's difficult to even follow him."

Prime Minister Liu pondered, "Can't you find anything?"

The man nodded and added, "But the woman with him is quite hands-on."

"You mean... Yun Shangshu's legitimate daughter?"

The man nodded again.

The man nodded and then became quiet, as if waiting for Prime Minister Liu to make a decision.

"In that case, then..."

In the middle of what Prime Minister Liu was saying, he was interrupted by the sound of violently breaking down the door, and the last words were hidden in the cracking sound.

A group of soldiers came in, divided into two rows, and blocked all the exits.

The man's expression changed, and he put his hand on the scimitar, as if he could unsheath it and wipe the necks of everyone present in the next second.

The black figure stepped in, his eyes sweeping across the entire private room with a full sense of oppression, and finally rested on Prime Minister Liu.

The expression on the delicate facial features was extremely light. Yanxu seemed to appreciate Prime Minister Liu's dazed look for a few seconds, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are so elegant."

"Prince Regent...what are you doing here?" Prime Minister Liu stood up, panic flashed through his heart, and he forced himself to calm down.

Yanxu twitched the corners of his lips mockingly, "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

Yanxu glanced at the man who was already on alert, and his eyes touched the tattoo on the side of the man's neck that was not covered up.

There is something different about that tattoo. This person should be a person with a relatively high status in Killing Shadows.

In silence, Yanxu looked away and took out an imperial edict from his wide sleeves.

"On the orders of the Emperor, I am here to capture the remnants of the Shadow Killers and...the Prime Minister."
