Chapter 506: Dignity

With a "bang", Mo Ruan poked the dagger in his hand at the head of Shen Lun's bed, only a palm away from his ear.

He looked at the man lying flat on the bed, and suddenly laughed back, "Hmph-hahahahaha, you old thing, where did you hide that edict!?" ”

In the past few days, he has asked people to search the entire Heart Cultivation Palace, and even the roof is about to be lifted, but no shadow of the edict has been found in any case.

Shen Lun glanced at Mo Ruan lightly with those sunken and depleted eyes, and closed his eyes leisurely.

Mo Ruan knew in his heart that Shen Lun clearly knew that he didn't dare to kill him at all now. And what hindered Mo Ruan on the road to killing the king and usurping the throne was the edict that I didn't know whether it existed.

The eunuch knelt beside him, his head bowed, but his eyes turned alertly to the left and right, always paying attention to the situation in front of him.

"Your Majesty, you have been sick for so many days, you should be very painful, right?" Mo Ruan took a few deep breaths, only then did he calm down his emotions, he smiled, and changed his tone of concern, "You just hid that edict no matter how deeply, who will announce it then?" This eunuch? ”

He pointed to the eunuch and said with a smile.

The eunuch is indeed qualified to announce the edict on behalf of the emperor, but Mo Ruan will not give him this opportunity. As long as he figured out the matter of this edict, Shen Lun's life was worthless, and he would not keep the life of a mere eunuch.

And if the edict is to declare Shen Mi as the new king, then Shen Mi himself will not have credibility, so this edict will never be on Shen Mi's body.

As for Shen Shu......

Shen Shu disappeared for several days from the day he tied Shi Qingqi to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the spies came to report that Shen Shu didn't know where to hear the news, saying that someone had taken Shi Qingqi out of the capital, so he hurriedly chased him out to find Shi Qingqi.

Mo Ruan was suspicious in his heart, but when he thought of Shen Shu's daily life for Shi Qingqian, he also felt that this matter was not unacceptable.

He didn't know that now in Liuzhou City, where the news was completely blocked, the last bargaining chip in his hand had almost collapsed, and Shen Shu didn't even know that Shi Qingqian had an accident.

Don't...... Is the edict really in Shen Shu's hands?

But Mo Ruan felt that this matter was unreasonable. No matter how much Shen Shu loves Shi Qingqi, if he has an edict in his hand, he will at least announce the edict first, completely wipe out the forces on their side, and then save her. Unless he was afraid that he would lead his troops to rebel strongly, he didn't even care about the edict.

Shen Lun kept his eyes closed and refused to reply, and it was useless to let Mo Ruan say anything.

Naturally, the eunuch did the same, refusing to let go at all.

Shi Qingqian's medicine has a miraculous effect, so Shen Lun can survive until now after being placed under house arrest by Mo Ruan. It was also thanks to the edict that Mo Ruan had palpitations, and he didn't dare to let Shen Lun die directly, so that Shen Lun could drink the medicine every day.

The dignified son of heaven was forced to look like this by the courtiers, and even the dormitory was turned upside down by the traitor, and it was already majestic and swept away, what else do you talk about 'dignity'?

So Shen Lun refused to die, not because he would rather be a broken jade than a complete tile, but because he didn't care about his face for a long time, he would rather live than see the day Mo Ruan was beheaded.

As he spoke, Mo Ruan sighed angrily.

Just when he had a headache, the little eunuch Liu Deyi hurriedly ran in from outside the main hall, and was mixed with messy objects on the road. The minions just forced the subordinates of the Heart Cultivation Hall to ask for something! ”

"If there's a fart, let it go!" Mo Ruan's eyes lit up, isn't it the matter of the edict that has been followed?

Liu Deyi: "The servants tortured the people in this palace, and they all said that since His Royal Highness passed away and the emperor was sick, until the prime minister, you led the troops to control here, except for the imperial doctor and the eunuch maid, no one has come to this heart cultivation hall, huh...... No, His Royal Highness the Fifth has been here several times, but every time the emperor has not met him, that is, he said two words through the door. Except for one ......"

Mo Ruan raised his eyebrows, his mind was spinning quickly, and a figure appeared in his mind at the moment-

"Shi Qingqi?"

"Yes...... It's the Lord of Baoying," Liu De nodded, "She treats the emperor, and she comes almost every day, and she waits for a day." There was no one else but her...... And, some say, on the day she finally entered the palace...... The emperor seemed to have given her something. ”

In other words, either the edict is still hidden in a place they don't know in the Heart Cultivation Palace, or the edict is in Shi Qingqian's hands?

Although the edict can also be taken out by his subordinates, Mo Ruan doesn't believe that Shen Lun will hand over something as important as the edict to other people. Besides, Shen Lun loves Shi Qingqian so much, and it seems unbelievable to hand over the edict to the daughter of a subordinate, but it is not impossible.

He looked at Shen Lun and unconsciously hooked his lips and smiled, "I see, Your Majesty, you are really bold and knowledgeable, you dare to let such a little girl hold such an important thing......"

Shen Lun still didn't reply, but the ups and downs in his chest seemed to be more obvious.

"I don't know if the emperor has heard of it, the little lord of Baoying has been missing for eight days, guess why she disappeared, at this time...... Where are you? Mo Ruan walked slowly and walked comfortably, "Alas, it's a pity, this game of chess of yours is still not as big as mine!" ”

Mo Ruan thought that Shen Lun would exonerate Shi Qingqian in order to keep the edict, but he didn't want him to have no reaction after hearing what he said.

Did he just think that he couldn't get the edict!?

He turned his head sharply, looked at the kneeling eunuch, and asked with a cruel smile, "Eunuch!" Tell me, is this edict on Shi Qingqian's demon girl?! ”

The eunuch hung his head and said, "Prime Minister Mo is really joking...... The old slave is a eunuch, and the edict is such an important thing...... How could the emperor mention it with the old slave...... This old slave doesn't know where it is, let alone if it's on the body of the lord of Baoying......"

Knowing that the answer was so, Mo Ruan smiled and nodded, "Okay, don't say it?" It's okay, anyway, the demon girl is in my hands, I don't believe I can't find it! ”

With that, Mo Ruan waved his hand and left quickly with Liu Deyi and a few subordinates......

Back to earlier.

That day, the sixth child brought back a large package of medicinal materials to Shi Qingqian, the conditions were not good, Shi Qingqian was not too picky, and chewed those medicinal materials at will and put them on his body. These herbs can stop bleeding and speed up wound healing. There are also some that are used to take oral essence tonic qi, and she also stuffed it into her mouth and swallowed it hard.

She was taking her medicine in the room while listening to the sounds outside.

The sixth said that he had to take an extra trip and had to take ten taels of silver, where would the others be willing? insisted on sharing the rest of the money equally, the sixth felt aggrieved and refused to live or die, so the four men quarreled, if it wasn't for Shi Qingqian to stop it in time, there would have been a fight.
