At the same time, in the palace.
Emperor Shun'an finally arranged a decent bed for himself with the funds raised from his ministers for various reasons.
As soon as he got money, he asked people to throw away several large baskets of radishes in the imperial kitchen, and issued a ban to not allow anything related to radishes to appear in front of him.
Those baskets of radishes were a naked mockery of his existence. As long as he saw the radishes, Emperor Shun'an would think of the empty palace.
It is simply a shame and humiliation that he will never be able to wash away in his entire life!
Emperor Shun'an was lying on the bed with a headache. There was a bowl of cold ginger soup on the table. In the past, he had a bad health and had various delicious medicinal soups, but now he only had a bowl of ginger soup that was unpalatable.
My mood was ups and downs, and I couldn't sleep.
"Is there anything wrong with the gold mine I asked you to look at?"
The palace was stolen twice before his eyes, and Emperor Shun'an was mentally disturbed. He had gold mines in his hands but he didn't dare to touch them at all.
He was only afraid that the gold would be stolen into the palace by the evil thieves who were unable to guard against it.
The bruises on Emperor Shun'an's face from the severe beating last night have not gone away. He went to court in the morning wearing a mask. Now he was even more afraid to leave his side. Nearly a hundred martial arts masters were arranged inside and outside. The guard is waiting.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, few people know about the gold mine. Even if the demon thief has a good eye, he won't be able to find the exact location of the gold mine for a while."
"What's more, we have set up a dragnet in the mine in accordance with your will. As long as the demon thief dares to go, he will never come back."
Emperor Shun'an always felt uneasy. It was true that there were many anti-theft mechanisms installed in the gold mine, but they were aimed at ordinary thieves. The demon thief even dared to break into the imperial mausoleum, so how could the anti-theft mechanisms prevent him.
"No, the royal study has been emptied. The scroll recording the gold mines must have fallen into the hands of the demon thief. It would be better if he didn't find it. If he did, he would definitely not miss the opportunity to evacuate these gold mines."
Having said this, he sat up suddenly, yes! If he is discovered, the demon thief will definitely not give up emptying the gold mine!
Isn't this a great opportunity for him to lure the snake out of its hole? !
Emperor Shun'an suddenly became excited. The demon thief had emptied so many things from his palace in one night. He would definitely not be able to find the gold mine distribution map he had hidden in the imperial study so quickly.
After all, he was not a prophet, so he could know in advance that such a thing was hidden in his imperial study.
And even if you knew it, it would take ten days and a half to search for so many things one by one.
This time is enough for him to arrange it!
Emperor Shun'an made a prompt decision: "You must quickly move the gold bars smelted from the gold mine. Go now. When the treasury is moved, you can then set an ambush against the demon thief again and wait for him to fall into a trap!"
"It's best if he can be captured alive. If he can't be captured alive, he will die in the mine regardless of fire attack or flooding!"
"If anyone can catch that demon thief, I will reward you heavily!"
"Subordinates obey orders!"
Half of the shadow guards guarding the area immediately withdrew.
There was hope of catching the demon thief. Emperor Shun'an's face, which had been gloomy for several days, finally showed a hint of joy. He felt that he was in better spirits. He immediately summoned Concubine Li to sleep with him.
"Your Majesty, you have remembered my concubine."
Li Fei has an almond-shaped face with willow-leaf eyebrows, a slender waist, and a beautiful face that is full of anger and resentment, all of which are the coquettishness of a little daughter.
In fact, she was nearly thirty years old, but Emperor Shun'an still just ignored her.
Knowing that the palace was not peaceful recently, Concubine Li was very sensible and did not say anything disappointing. Although she was full of complaints after the palace was stolen, if she complained at an inappropriate time, she might make the emperor unhappy.
After all, the entire palace had been stolen. Who could be more upset than the emperor?
But that demon thief is so hateful that he doesn't even let go of the harem!
When Li Fei thought about the boiled radish she had eaten all day today, her face turned pale, but when she faced Emperor Shun'an, she soon smiled brightly.
Seeing Emperor Shun'an waving to her, she snuggled into his arms.
"Your Majesty, you must be very tired these days. I'll give you some advice. Your Majesty is the son of destiny. He should be protected by gods and Buddhas. Those evil spirits who only dare to cause trouble in the dark will one day be unable to escape the Holy Judgment. Your Majesty. You have to take care of your dragon body."
Emperor Shun'an benefited greatly from Concubine Li's gentle words. He closed his eyes to rest and let her press his forehead for a while to relieve the pain.
Then he grabbed her waist and squeezed suggestively: "No need to press it, go to bed!"
Concubine Li was overjoyed: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will serve you now."
It is said that men are easy to talk to in bed, and if they serve the emperor well, they might be able to win a favor.
If she could, she would make sure that the Lu family died miserably!
Her younger brother Zhang Shiming was ransacked at the General's Mansion that day and was hit by a collapsed door, which left him paralyzed. He is still lying in bed and unable to take care of himself. He was left crippled by the smash.
Although it was just an accident, Concubine Li's old and new grudges were recorded on the Lu family's head along with this account.
In her opinion, if the Lu family hadn't refused to cooperate, how could her brother have been hit by the door? They were the ones who had brought bad luck to her brother!
The two of them rolled onto the bed together. Li Fei had already thought about how she would criticize the Lu family later. However, she tried all kinds of means and could not get Emperor Shun'an to lift it up.
Could it be that she is old and has lost her beauty and is no longer attractive to the emperor?
"Your Majesty~"
Li Fei held him, kneaded him a few times, and used all her strength to knead him, her screams becoming more and more sweet and sweet.
However, after moving for a long time, Emperor Shun'an didn't respond at all. She had reached her limit by screaming at that bruised and unattractive face for so long.
"Your Majesty, are you tired today?"
Emperor Shun'an thought at first that it was due to his mental and physical exhaustion for days, but after struggling for two quarters of an hour, there was no movement, and his face gradually became ugly.
"roll!"
Concubine Li, who was still exerting herself, was caught off guard and was thrown under the bed. She raised her head in panic and said, "Your Majesty... How can I, my concubine, let you..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the ferocious-looking Emperor Shun'an roaring: "I tell you to get out!"
Li Fei had never seen him look so scary. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and she hurriedly ran out regardless of her disheveled appearance.
Emperor Shun'an's eyes were gloomy, brewing a storm: "Come here, call for a beautiful lady!"
Li Fei, who had not gone far, heard Emperor Shun'an's voice and almost missed her step and fell down the steps. She turned around in disbelief.
Not only was he kicked out by the emperor, but as soon as he walked out of the door, the emperor summoned other beauties!
She was shaky and grabbed the eunuch who was about to summon him: "Father-in-law, what on earth is going on?"
It can't be that the emperor just dislikes her, right?
