Chapter 243 This emperor has a strong desire to survive!
I ran over excitedly and picked one off. I held it in my hand and looked at it again and again, only to find that it was not the one.
This is still a world without electricity.
When she heard the uncle calling her, she followed him with her head hung down with a look of disappointment.
In the deep secret passage, corpses followed the emperor, and behind the corpses followed a group of ministers who dared not even breathe.
If the emperor could not find any concrete evidence to prove that there was a room full of gold, the right prime minister could just insist that it was all his own accumulation over the years. After all, he had a lot of property, received tributes from noble families every year, and had a father-in-law who was a wealthy merchant.
But now looking at the situation in front of them, they don't believe that there is nothing fishy going on.
After all, what kind of good person would mess up the secret room like this?
I’m afraid the Right Prime Minister is in great danger this time!
The emperor walked along the secret passage on the right for about a cup of tea and finally reached the end of the secret passage.
At the deepest end is an open secret room door. With the light coming through the room, you can see what is inside without going in.
However, the door of a secret room outside was closed, and four guards were standing outside.
The emperor frowned and walked forward. He first looked up and down at the closed door, then moved to the nearest guard and asked in a deep voice:
"Can't open it again?"
The guard shook his head, stretched out his hand to push open the half-closed door, and replied with some difficulty:
"Your Majesty... you should take a look at this for yourself."
The emperor glanced at him suspiciously, then put his hands behind his back and stepped into the slowly opening door.
The first thing that catches your eye as you enter the door is a large screen with a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water. The walls of the room are also inlaid with rows of luminous pearls.
But the light in the room did not become particularly bright because of those night pearls.
But it was because of the layers of curtains hanging from top to bottom behind the screen, the thin red and purple gauze curtains, that made it dim, ambiguous, and a little weird.
Perhaps their intrusion disturbed something, but a slight noise came from the innermost part of the layers of gauze curtains.
The emperor knew very well that since the guard let him in directly, there would naturally be no danger in there. He pushed aside the layers of gauze and walked in step by step. When he reached the center of the room, the gauze was gone, replaced by a large dark red round bed.
The tattered clothes scattered on the floor under the bed and the pale calf with purple bruises faintly visible behind the layers of bed curtains all indicated that the owner of this place had been here not long ago.
Seeing this scene, the emperor's deep eyes flashed slightly, but the next moment he seemed to remember something and suddenly lowered his head to look to the side.
Sure enough, the little girl stretched her neck from behind him, her eyes wide open with curiosity, and peeked inside.
The emperor subconsciously reached out and placed one of his big palms over the little girl's curious eyes. While speaking, he turned her around with his other hand and pushed her out.
"Don't do it, little girl!
Hey, hey, hey, don’t move your feet!
Don't touch me, I didn't mean it!"
It can be heard that the emperor has a strong desire to survive.
But it did effectively avoid a beating.
Only after he pushed the man out of the secret room did the emperor withdraw his hand, and then he jumped away from the corpse with a lingering fear on his face.
When I looked at Shishi again, there were five big words written on his face:
Don't come over here!
The corpse that was pushed out was speechless. She had already seen everything she should and shouldn't see.
But I thought that the uncle must be kind and was afraid of scaring me, so he didn't do anything.
However, Shishi still said to the emperor calmly:
"I saw it all."
The corpse not only saw it, but also felt it. The sister was seriously injured and was only breathing her last.
So Shishi thought about it and added:
"Hurry up and call someone to rescue them."
When the emperor heard the word "they", his expression immediately straightened.
Normally, such matters would be handled directly by the guards or officials. However, upon hearing the little girl's request, the emperor glanced at a guard and instructed:
"Go and get a doctor quickly."
The emperor paused and added:
"It's best if it's a female doctor."
The guard nodded and walked quickly towards the exit of the secret passage.
Because of the little girl, the emperor wanted to wait for the doctor to take care of it before going in, but at this moment, a man's heart-wrenching cry was heard in the secret room.
"Yu'er!"
"My son!!!"
"Yu'er, open your eyes and look at daddy~ Daddy is here~"
The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the voice, and he quickly said to Xiao Wang, who was huddled in the corner with her head down:
"Watch your daughter carefully. The things inside are not suitable for her to see."
Then he turned around and walked into the secret room again with anxious steps.
When the ministers who were still crowded in the secret room saw the emperor coming, they all consciously made way for him.
When the emperor walked to the center of the secret room again, he saw the Minister of Revenue sitting on the edge of the big round bed with a sad face, holding a girl wrapped tightly in a quilt with her eyes closed and unconscious in his arms.
Looking back again, he saw that the gauze curtains inside the big round bed had been pulled aside by someone, revealing five or six young girls wrapped in gauze, huddled together tightly in the innermost corner. The scars visible under the gauze corresponded to the rows of unspeakable torture instruments hanging on the wall nearby.
Although it was immoral, when the emperor saw the Minister of Revenue holding someone and crying uncontrollably, the heavy stone that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.
The emperor ignored the Minister of Revenue and instead looked around the room full of men. He then glanced at the girls who were like frightened birds, frowned again, and ordered in a cold voice:
“Everyone, quit!
Let’s go next door first.”
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
But the Minister of Revenue, who had heard the voice, only then realized that the emperor had arrived. He quickly raised his head and wailed hoarsely at the emperor's back:
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
Please help me, my little girl! "
The emperor paused when he heard the voice, and then a cold sneer of disdain was heard.
"Oh~ Now you remember me.
Think carefully about who your master is first, and then decide whether to ask me to make the decision for you!"
After saying this, the emperor flicked his sleeves and strode away.
The Minister of Revenue stared blankly at the emperor's departing back, with the words "Think carefully about who your master is" still echoing in his ears.
After a long moment, he lowered his eyes and looked at his little daughter in his arms. She was the one he had cherished like a treasure since she was little, but whom he had not seen for a month and was now covered in wounds and dying.
He didn't understand how things turned out like this, and he didn't understand why his beloved little daughter appeared in the secret room of the Right Prime Minister, whom he had always revered and followed.
"what!!!"
In another secret room, everyone who was marveling at the room full of precious jade and jewels fell silent instantly when they heard the painful wail coming from next door.
Among them, many people from the Right Prime Minister's faction were now like the Minister of Revenue before, with their legs trembling and their eyes black.
When everyone fell into a strange silence, Shishi was unaffected. She pulled her mother to boxes of exquisite and luxurious jewelry and began to search through them.
When Shishi saw these, he suddenly remembered that after Aunt Xu came to the capital, she dressed like a different person, and the beautiful women he saw when he just entered the door were all wearing a lot of such things on their bodies and heads.
If other women have it, then the mother of the corpse naturally must have it too.
