Quick Wear: The villain is a heartthrob, and the boss can't stand it

Chapter 190 Cannon Fodder Wife (12)

Lin Shuwei followed the servant around the princess's mansion, but suddenly stopped and spoke in a dangerous tone.

"Where is His Majesty? Can't you remember?"

The secret guard paused, closed his eyes and lowered his head, his face showing a mixed expression as if a bottle of seasoning had been overturned.

Fortunately, within a moment, a bird's cry was heard from the treetops.

"You are joking, my lord. How could I possibly forget such an important matter?"

"It's just that the Princess's Mansion is bustling with activity right now. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the consequences if I disturb the other nobles. Please come on in. We'll be there in one more courtyard."

Lin Shuwei's expression remained unchanged. He stared at him for a while, and while the secret guard remained calm, he raised his foot and slowly walked forward.

As expected, he walked through a yard, but there was no one in sight. He could only vaguely sense some fluctuations of aura coming from all directions.

Walking along the long bridge to the pavilion in the middle of the lake, a tall figure was sitting upright in the fluttering gauze curtain, with a sharp look on half of his face.

Lin Shuwei knelt down and kowtowed, "I wonder what your Majesty's instructions are?"

After waiting for a long time, there was no sound. Lin Shuwei's eyes were gloomy and he kept his hands moving.

Suddenly, Di Chen's voice was full of mischief, and a figure standing beside him came closer and reached out to hold his arm.

"My dear, why are you being so polite in public? Come and have a cup of tea with me."

Lin Shuyi stood up as ordered, half-sitting on the wooden stool. Her deep gaze swept across the lip print on Di Chen's chin, her expression concealing hidden danger.

Di Chen's breath was steady, and he glared coldly at Sui Yu's "husband", without disguising his scrutiny.

He is thin and not strong enough, and looks like an embroidered pillow. Could he make Sui Yu happier than him?

He was calm in his official duties, but he also had no extraordinary achievements, unlike his decisiveness in killing people.

He looked like a scholar, but lacked the sharp and imposing aura, and was still no match for him.

Raising his eyes, Li Lian, who was standing next to him, walked forward and poured a cup of "tea" and handed it to Lin Shuwei.

"This tea is quite strong, just enough to quench the burning desire in my heart. Lord Lin, please try it."

Lin Shuwei paused as he picked up the teacup, the smell of alcohol lingering in his nose.

This strong thing is not tea, it is clearly wine.

It's not just about the strong alcohol, it's clearly about veiled criticism of someone.

Lin Shuwei just felt amused in his heart. All those things that he had previously investigated fruitlessly and that Shen Yanting refused to reveal later on his own initiative, were now revealed after a little thought.

It turned out that the person who abducted his bride was the current emperor.

Lin Shuwei was promoted in the palace examination in the year when Emperor Chen ascended the throne. His integrity as an official was also due to the confidence given by Emperor Chen's iron-blooded methods.

Even though others say that Emperor Chen is a tyrant who kills people without mercy, the deaths of those corrupt officials and licentious dignitaries were not unjust.

He once thought that Di Chen was a truly wise ruler, and if possible, he would always adhere to his own way of being an official.

But...the person who abducted his bride was Di Chen.

The corners of Lin Shuwei's eyes were suppressed and scarlet, her thin eyelids were soaked with anger, burning with raging flames, and she looked straight at Di Chen.

"If your Majesty doesn't own this tea, it's useless to take it by force. Drinking it will harm your health."

Di Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Shuwei with a higher opinion. He was still a tough guy who begged for mercy before even meeting him.

He had only dealt with Lin Shuyi in the court, and this man's impeccable way of doing things and his impartiality towards everyone won his heart.

But now there is a natural hostility between us, and I just can't stand it no matter how I look at it.

The court official he trusted became the queen he envied the most, and he himself was still the thief who stole her beauty.

Di Chen felt a little self-deprecating and a little complacent. He never thought that one day he would become such a secretive person.

If it were up to him, he would have welcomed Sui Yu into the palace with great fanfare the next day and she would have become his queen in a legitimate manner.

But... she didn't want to.

"I can't tell whether I'm physically hurt or not, but my heart is filled with ups and downs of excitement."

Di Chen leaned over, supporting himself on the table with one hand, his fingertips resting on the spot on the table wet by the spilled tea. He spoke softly, "Drinking it makes one particularly happy."

Lin Shuwei and Di Chen's eyes met. The air was filled with a murderous coldness that was so cold, but it was so hot that Li Lian shivered and couldn't describe the feeling.

He turned his smiling eyes and looked at Shen Yanting who was flying over from the eaves.

Okay, okay, now everyone is here.

Shen Yanting placed one foot on the wooden railing of the pavilion, half-sitting and gazing at Di Chen and Lin Shuwei. He suddenly asked, "Did you know?"

Lin Shuwei didn't reply to him, but her expression was clear.

Shen Yanting curled his lips, not forgetting to establish Sui Yu's character, "You are the emperor, and our status is naturally inferior to yours, but if you force Yaoyao, I'm afraid you will directly take her life."

"Do you want a Yaoyao who can cry, laugh, and fight, or a corpse to be put into your royal coffin? Think carefully."

When Lin Shuwei and Di Chen heard the word "corpse", their hands suddenly stiffened, and they obviously realized that Shen Yanting was not talking nonsense.

"She is my queen, and no one can change that." Di Chen's voice was cold, like an icicle formed by water droplets dripping from a cold pond in winter, piercing through the defenses of people's hearts.

"Then you also have to see whether she really wants to be your queen." Lin Shuyi did not regard Di Chen as an emperor at this moment. The two of them were now just rivals in love.

Di Chen didn't care about his offense at all. If he had to use his power to get the person he loved, then he would be at a real disadvantage.

"Yaoyao naturally likes me very much." Di Chen raised his chin slightly. The lip marks on his handsome face were so conspicuous that they pulled his whole aura towards charming.

"It's not like I haven't been kissed by Yaoyao before." Shen Yanting muttered.

Lin Shuwei's cold eyes suddenly swept over him, and Di Chen was no exception. "Did you force her too?"

Shen Yanting opened his mouth, wanting to argue but having no words to say. He couldn't say anything he could say, and couldn't say anything he wanted to say.

After a few pauses, he nodded randomly, "You two have won the heart of a beautiful woman, so why can't I visit her at night?"

Lin Shuwei reacted slightly and realized that he was talking about the night a few days ago when he had not returned home due to official business and had stayed in the palace.

It is not known what the subsequent argument among the few people was like. Sui Yu was stared at by Iris, and a cool ointment was carefully applied to her lips.

"Madam... If you do this again next time, can you please let me know in advance? I'm afraid that my son-in-law will notice that I look strange..."

Iris looked aggrieved. She was really scared just now.

Fortunately, I still have some acting skills, otherwise if the truth was revealed, it would ruin my wife's reputation.

No matter how much the son-in-law loves his wife now, if such a dangerous thing is discovered in the end, he may change his mind.

Look at her master. He loved the late wife so much before, but he still took her as a concubine. Although she was not allowed to have children, Iris still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, next time, I'll tell you early." Sui Yu fiddled with the little bells hanging on her double buns with her fingertips.

"Tell Iris what?" A magnetic and deep voice came from far away, full of warmth.
