Something strange is coming? Fortunately, I am the King of Hell of the Tenth Palace

On the phoenix couch.

Hearing the voice of the maid outside the door, Queen Mother Zhuang panicked.

She turned around and glanced at Shen Jian who was dawdling, and was furious.

"Didn't I tell you to leave? You shameless little thief, you are really stuck here in this palace."

Shen Jian was a little innocent.

leave?

What a joke.

With just this 65 points of favorability, once he left, it gave the Queen Mother Zhuang the opportunity to think about life and weigh the pros and cons. That was not equivalent to giving up the advantage to the other party.

How could he do such a thing that is not good for him?

If he doesn't raise his favorability to 70 or even 80 points today, he will never get off this phoenix bed.

then.

Shen Jian frowned.

"Your Majesty, maybe it's because of the severe poison in my body and the fact that I worked hard day and night last night. My body is still a little weak."

See this.

Empress Dowager Zhuang spat.

There is nothing you can do against this scoundrel.

at the moment.

It can only remain as it is.

Thinking.

Da da da……

The sound of slight footsteps came.

See this.

Empress Dowager Zhuang could only bury Shen Jian.

Things here cannot be spread.

Otherwise, the scandal of letting a young eunuch climb onto the phoenix bed will spread instantly. Although her power cannot be shaken, criticism is inevitable.

And she never liked this kind of criticism.

"Don't make a sound, otherwise I will never be done with you."

Empress Dowager Zhuang warned sternly.

The words fell.

A slender figure walked in.

Wearing a dragon robe, he has a slender figure. As he walks in, he reveals a very delicate face.

Looks very delicate.

To an ordinary person, this would be a noble and handsome young man.

But the black gold dragon robe on his body and the majestic look on his face told everyone that he was the current leader of the Eternal Night Kingdom and the king of a country.

Shen Jian blinked.

Even in a completely dark environment, it could not block his vision.

He looked around.

A man in dragon robe, who although handsome in appearance, had already begun to show the majesty of the emperor, walked towards him.

No matter how you look at it, he is a young emperor.

But Shen Jian knew.

Hidden under the face of this young emperor is a stunning female body that could attract the attention of six countries.

Recorded according to official historical time.

In the twenty-fifth year of Yongye, the young emperor will return to his female body and take charge of Yongye Kingdom completely.

And now, it is the eighteenth year of Yongye.

The young emperor was still a man, and his power as emperor was eclipsed by the queen mother, making him a puppet emperor.

At this point in time, it is the stage of the battle of wits and courage between Queen Yongye and the Empress Dowager of the Prison Kingdom.

Thinking.

Queen Yongye was already standing three meters away from the phoenix couch.

"Mother...mother."

This cheer made Queen Mother Zhuang become nervous.

Then he put on a tired look and said lazily: "You came over to the Ai family without informing me in advance. What's the matter?"

below.

There is something weird about the Queen of Evernight.

She raised her head and glanced at the blurry outline of Queen Mother Zhuang inside the golden gauze tent, and said in a hesitant tone: "Mother, the time for the morning court has passed. Seeing that you have not arrived, all the ministers asked you what happened, and my ministers were also a little worried. In desperation, I came here."

Hear this.

Empress Dowager Zhuang paused and said as if nothing had happened:

"Last night, a thief broke into Cining Palace with the intention of killing the hero of the City God's Temple incident. The palace set up clues and caught him on the spot. After being interrogated all night, he couldn't calm down, which delayed the morning court."

Hear this.

The Queen of Evernight was even more puzzled.

Then shouldn’t it be more appropriate to go to morning court?

After all, the man responsible for the murder of the City God's Temple incident was simply worried that he was the mastermind behind it.

As for the current Eternal Night Kingdom, there are no more than three people with this motive.

In her opinion, it was more appropriate to go to court at this time, find out the culprit, and kill the other nine tribes.

But she didn't argue.

He just said: "The Queen Mother, please prepare. The ministers are still waiting for the Queen Mother to go to court."

Queen Mother Zhuang:...

Going to court?

How can she go to court in this state?

at this time.

The Empress Dowager Zhuang had only one thought in her heart: get rid of Queen Yongye as soon as possible.

"I was unwell at night and delayed the morning court. It would not be appropriate to go there again at this time. You have been on the throne for ten years and have been watching for ten years. You must have kept the affairs of the court in mind. You will perform this morning court for one day."

As soon as these words came out.

Queen Evernight's eyes were filled with astonishment.

Let her do it for you?

The queen mother has been in charge of the country for ten years and has never been punished once.

Nowadays, all the large and small court halls are filled with the Queen Mother's people.

She is basically just a decoration.

to this end.

A few days ago, she questioned her mother's order for the first time.

It caused a sensation in the court.

Rumors were spreading openly and secretly that she, the little emperor, was planning to seize the throne.

At this time, shouldn't the Queen Mother go to court in person to consolidate her rule?

Why let her do it?

Does this mean that she actually misunderstood her mother?

The queen mother has never returned the power of supervising the country to her, because she just thinks that she is not able to take charge of it on her own. But now, the queen mother thinks that the time is ripe?

still……

Testing her? Test her to see if she wants to take back her power?

Suspicion flashed across Queen Evernight's face.

She looked up.

It always feels a bit inconsistent.

Take a look now.

Even more inconsistent.

The figure behind the golden gauze curtain looks a bit huge.

It seemed like something was placed on top.

Queen Mother Zhuang also noticed Queen Yongye's vague gaze.

I was shocked.

He quickly turned sideways without leaving any trace.

Turning his back to Queen Yong Ye, he wrapped Shen Jian tightly.

"I'm exhausted, please step aside."

Empress Dowager Zhuang began to chase away the guests.

Little did I know.

Her words of expelling guests were a huge surprise to Queen Yong Ye's ears.

I thought this was a test.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother really delegated power to her.

then.

She withdrew with emotion.

…

In the bedroom.

Until the Queen of Evernight leaves.

Empress Dowager Zhuang finally let go of her hanging heart.

Without saying a word, he immediately opened the quilt and pushed Shen Jian away.

Although his face was red, his eyes were filled with evil, and he shouted angrily: "You shameless little thief, how dare you make a fool of yourself in front of my Majesty, and I almost made a fool of myself. If you are discovered, I'm afraid you won't be able to kill me even if you have 10,000 lives." of."

Shen Jian's eyes were strange and he said, "Thanks to the Queen Mother for allowing me to save my life."

"Shut up, why didn't I choke you to death just now?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said angrily.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she was stunned again.

How could you say such a thing?

He must have been influenced by this shameless little thief.

"Okay, go down quickly. I have given you too much grace just now, but what happened today cannot be spread outside the palace."

Just saying.

Queen Mother Zhuang was also ready to get up.

During the conversation just now, she had recovered a bit, and there must be no problem with her movements.

However.

next moment.

One of her jade hands was held by Shen Jian.

Queen Mother Zhuang was stunned.

Turn around and look.

He saw Shen Jian's malicious smiling face.

…

At noon.

Shen Jian glanced at the scarlet panel.

[Hidden mission: Reversing the fate of Yongye Kingdom. 】

[Current progress: 16%. 】

Just by not having the Queen Mother attend court once, the progress of the task soared by 7%, almost catching up with the changes in the historical trajectory brought about by solving the disaster at the City God's Temple.

One can imagine.

What is the impact of this matter.

If the Queen of Evernight could be allowed to take control of the Evernight Kingdom a few years in advance, there might be hope of reversing the national calamity.

His hard work affects the fate of Yongye Kingdom.

at this time.

The voice of a maid came from outside the inner hall.

"Mother, there is a secret message about last night's assassination."

"Bring it in."

When she heard what was going on, Queen Mother Zhuang's face suddenly became serious.

Because she was poisoned by the love potion, she was not fully involved in what happened last night, but she had given orders to pry clues out of the assassin's mouth.

A maid walked in.

Looking at Shen Jian in the bedroom, her expression did not change.

After all, she was the gatekeeper, so she naturally understood what happened in the Queen Mother's palace.

a long time.

Queen Mother Zhuang handed the secret letter in her hand to Shen Jian.

"You are an experiencer of the City God's Temple incident. What do you think?"

Shen Jian glanced at it a few times.

His eyes flashed.

The content on the secret message is very brief.

To sum it up: the mastermind behind the assassin came from the General’s Mansion.

The general of Yongye Kingdom is one of the four top ghost kings.

He is the leader of the military commander faction.

He is also the Right Prime Minister of Yongye Kingdom.

He and Zuo Cheng, the leader of civil servants, restricted each other.

"It can't be fake."

Finished reading.

Shen Jian said.

From the ghost-faced tiger's mouth, he had long known that the man behind the scenes was a top ghost king.

And now the clue points to the General's Mansion.

The situation has become very obvious.

It was the right prime minister, the general, who spread the rumors about the City God's Temple.

Hear this.

Queen Mother Zhuang was speechless for a long time.

"This is a troublesome matter. If we don't deal with it, it will appear that the royal family is afraid of a right prime minister, which will make the other party more unscrupulous. But if you want to deal with a general's palace, it involves many problems. The most important thing is that if you can't react before everyone Capture it before coming here, and the resistance you will encounter will become greater and greater."

"What's more, the assassin's one-sided words cannot convict a general."

"I can do that."

At this time.

Shen Jian grinned.

"you?"

"Yes, Queen Mother, don't you want to capture the general quickly? I can do it."

The smile on Shen Jian's face became even brighter.

He originally planned to find an opportunity to capture these four top ghost kings.

Now that he has an honest reason, he will naturally not miss it.

"How sure are you?"

Queen Mother Zhuang looked Shen Jian up and down.

Finally chose to believe.

After all, the incident at the City God's Temple has proven that Shen Jian has at least the strength of a top ghost king.

Apart from Shen Jian, she couldn't find anyone else like him.

"How sure are you? As long as the place you gave is correct, I can capture him and bring him back to see you tonight."

Shen Jian said casually.

His current Yin Qi level is also at the level of a top ghost king. Even if he doesn't use the divine ability of the King of Hell, he can easily crush the top ghost king. Naturally, he doesn't need to be modest.

If you don't show your strengths, how can you penetrate into the heart of the Queen Mother Zhuang?

"Then I'll leave this matter to you."

Shen Jian smiled.

Turn around and leave.

Looking at Shen Jian's leaving figure, Queen Mother Zhuang's beautiful eyes turned blue.

This shameless little thief is surprisingly reliable.
