Quick Travel: The beginning is Shura Field

Chapter 1501: Vicious and domineering (8)

"But don't worry, I have no interest in you. I asked you out alone because I wanted to ask you, who do you think is the best prince in the country?"

Born in the royal family, although these people in the palace are related by blood, once their own interests are involved, they will almost not recognize their relatives.

So Dai Ke has to choose a smart one among them to cooperate with her and replace the emperor.

Shen Anqing has never taken sides and has always adhered to his duties. His evaluation is definitely the most pertinent.

"Each prince has his own excellence, and it is difficult to evaluate them."

Shen Anqing's words were flawless, which made Dai Ke love and hate him: "There are only you and me here, but you can talk as you like."

"Your Highness, what do you want me to say?"

"Shen Anqing, you know exactly what I mean."

Shen Anqing is an extremely intelligent person, otherwise he would not have been able to become a teacher in the upper study room.

When Dai Ke asked the first question, he noticed Dai Ke's ambition, so he could not answer Dai Ke's questions.

Because once he answered, he would be on Dai Ke's side, and they would share the honor and disgrace.

"Your Highness, now that you are in a high position, isn't it enough for you to enjoy respect?"

"But Mr. Shen, do you think those people respect me, or are they just pretending to be nice to me and hoping I'll die? Which emperor would tolerate a princess holding military power and leaving her in an empty position?"

"But if your Highness carries out his plan, it will be a capital crime."

Dai Ke sneered and said, "Eight thousand soldiers, I offer them with both hands. Eight hundred thousand soldiers, I will be the emperor!"

If Dai Ke wanted to seize power and usurp the throne, it would only take a word for him.

But she didn't want to be an emperor, yet she had to ensure her own safety, so she needed a prince, a legitimate prince, who could then become her puppet.

So this person has to be smart, but not too smart.

I believe Shen Anqing understands her needs.

Seeing Shen Anqing didn't say anything, Dai Ke reminded him: "You know me well. If you know what I'm thinking now but don't help me, there will be only two outcomes."

"Either die, or become my male favorite and be trapped in Fengyu Palace for the rest of your life."

"I will keep my mouth shut."

"I only trust the dead."

In more than two months, Xiao Ye will return to Sheng Country.

If he makes any move at that time, or if the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion makes any move, it will lead to turmoil in Sheng State and even threaten Xiao Ye's life.

Dai Ke must be able to send troops at any time without being hindered by the emperor, so she has to take control of the government almost as soon as Xiao Ye leaves.

Time was so tight that she didn't have time to observe the princes one by one, so getting information from Shen Anqing was the most direct way.

"Your Highness, do you have to force me?"

"Mr. Shen, I must control this throne in my own hands."

"Instead of me taking the throne, or supporting a tyrant, don't you think the one you choose would be more suitable, Mr. Shen?"

"Since it's all going to end the same way, why don't you choose a wise ruler for the world, Mr. Shen?"

Shen Anqing looked at Dai Ke in disbelief.

At this moment, Dai Ke's aura and conversation were very different from before. "Your Highness seems to have become a different person. His aura is fierce and his conversation is extraordinary. It makes people feel so unfamiliar."

"Can I take it that Mr. Shen is praising me?"

Shen Anqing did not deny: "Regarding your Highness's request, please consider it for a while."

"Three days at most. After three days, either Mr. Shen agrees, or I will start preparing for Mr. Shen's funeral."

Just as Shen Anqing nodded, Zhuifeng's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, Xiao Ye is fighting with the prince in the upper study."

Hearing this, Dai Ke didn't have time to say anything else and ran straight to the study.

Seeing Dai Ke's anxiety, Shen Anqing followed him as if possessed.

Outside the study, Xiao Ye was pinned to the ground by several guards, with his limbs tightly restrained, unable to move.

In the cold winter, his shirt was stripped off, revealing the scars that had just healed and the new scars. A prince picked up ice from the pond and pretended to stuff it into Xiao Ye's pants, but was suddenly kicked to the ground.

"Who dares to kick this prince?"

The prince who fell to the ground roared, and when he saw that it was Dai Ke, he immediately knelt down.

The princes who were still watching the show around also immediately knelt down in fear.

Dai Ke walked up to Xiao Ye, took off his cloak to cover him, and helped him stand up.

He swept his cold eyes over the group of kneeling guards and said, "Take these guards away and give them thirty lashes each!"

"Your Highness, spare your life!"

"Your Highness, spare your life!"

As he begged for mercy, the guard was dragged away.

Dai Ke waited for Xiao Ye to stand firm, then he strode up to Zhui Feng, drew out his sword, and struck him with his sword.

The prince who had just done evil, covered the wound on his neck, fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and was completely silent.

Dai Ke held the bloody sword in his hand and swept it over the princes who were lying on the ground. "You dared to bully the people I brought with me. You don't take me seriously. If there is such a situation again in the future, you will end up like him."

"And you slaves, remember who you are supposed to be loyal to. If you dare to touch my people next time, even if you have no choice, I will not punish you with thirty lashes."

Xiao Ye endured the pain in his body and stared at Dai Ke in disbelief.

He thought he would be humiliated in vain again today, and never thought that Dai Ke would protect him, let alone that she would kill a prince for him.

Isn't this behavior declaring war on the emperor?

Everyone lowered their heads even lower, almost with their faces touching the ground.

Dai Ke threw away his sword and left with Xiao Ye.

Shen Anqing stood in the hall, looking at the backs of the two people leaving, his gaze fell on the corpse, thoughts surging in his eyes.

Xiao Ye was almost dragged away. He moved his fingers slightly, feeling the warmth in his palms, his mind was almost complicated.

He was dragged into the sedan chair, and Dai Ke ordered: "Return to Fengyu Palace quickly, Zhuifeng, go get the imperial physician."

The sedan bearers almost ran back to Fengyu Palace. The ride was bumpy and Xiao Ye was almost thrown out.

Dai Ke held the handrail with one hand and grasped his arm with the other to steady him so that he would not fall off.

The doctor hadn't arrived yet. Dai Ke stared at his new wound with a frown on his face. "Don't you know Kung Fu? How could you be bullied so easily?"

Xiao Ye tried to resist, but in the end he gave up.

He sat there, lowering his eyes: "You are the one who told me to recognize my identity."

He didn't dare to resist, fearing that no one would back him up and he would be punished more severely. "You listen to me? Do you listen to me when I ask you to be my male pet?"

Xiao Ye pursed his lips in silence. Dai Ke heard the noise and stopped the doctor from saluting: "Come over and take a look at him."

The imperial physician felt Xiao Ye's pulse and asked him a few questions: "Your Highness, he only has some superficial injuries, it's nothing serious."

"He just recovered from his injuries and was beaten again. Are you sure he has no internal injuries?"

"I am sure, but this young master has just recovered from a cold. I am afraid he will need to take a few more pills to avoid reinfection."

"I understand. Zhuifeng, send someone to follow the imperial physician to get the medicine."

The other guard left with the imperial physician, and Dai Ke raised his eyes and pointed at Zhui Feng: "Come here."
