Ch 189: Sons Are Really Not As Good As Daughters!
The Emperor was startled.
He had promised the Empress that he would definitely bring Soaring Eagle to justice.
Unexpectedly, Soaring Eagle had defected to Xi Yan.
He was just worrying about not being able to find him.
Listen to Shen Biluo’s inner voice to see if there are any clues that can lead to the capture of this person.
However, the Emperor still didn’t want the Ministers to hear about matters concerning Xi Yan.
Perhaps it involves some confidential matters that should not be leaked.
So he directly announced the adjournment of the court.
The Ministers, having eaten only half of their melons, felt unsatisfied. Hearing the Emperor’s announcement of adjournment, they also guessed that there were some things that he didn’t want too many people to know, so everyone obediently left the court.
After the court adjourned, the Emperor summoned Shen Biluo and the Second Prince, asking them to follow him to the Hall of Diligent Governance.
The Second Prince was extremely anxious, not knowing how the Father Emperor would deal with him, but still followed.
【How could Soaring Eagle have a Gu Worm?】 Shen Biluo asked.
【It’s a long story. After his affair of killing boys and girls in the Sand Tribe was exposed, he ran away, dared not escape to Da Yao, so he went to Xi Yan.】 the System said.
【In Xi Yan, by chance, he helped a Gu Master, and that Gu Master gave him several Gu Worms before his death.】
【It’s so easy to meet a Gu Master…】 Shen Biluo said.
System: 【Gu Technique is prevalent in Xi Yan, and there are quite a lot of Gu Masters. The Gu Master he helped was quite powerful, and the Gu Worms he gave him were extremely rare.】
【Oh, by the way, the Xi Yan spy last time wanted to harm me with a Gu Worm!】 Shen Biluo said.
【He took the Gu Worm and defected to the Xi Yan Monarch, and was even given an official position by the Xi Yan Monarch.】 the System said.
Shen Biluo: 【What a disaster! System, does Soaring Eagle have any other gossip?】
The System searched for a long time: 【No more, that’s all for now.】
【Then we can’t find him!】 Shen Biluo was angry.
【Finding him might be a bit difficult, but there’s another way. He raises Gu Worms, and those Gu Worms should be fed with his essence and blood. In this situation, once the Gu Worm dies, it will cause a backlash to his body.】 the System said.
【How can we kill the Gu Worm?】 Shen Biluo asked.
【The method of attracting each type of Gu Worm is different. Divine Physician Yun Sheng has practiced medicine in Xi Yan and dealt with various Gu Worms; he might have a way.】 the System said.
The Emperor understood.
This Yun Sheng is actually so useful.
Shen Biluo was anxious.
【If Second Brother goes to bed with that spy again today, the Gu Worm will be planted! How can I remind Second Brother?!】
The Emperor, seeing Shen Biluo’s anxious expression, quickly winked at Shen Xingyao.
Shen Xingyao was stunned for a long time, not understanding what it meant, and the Emperor almost facepalmed.
After a long while, he finally understood.
Then he said: “Father Emperor, I have something to tell you!”
The Emperor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: “What is it?”
Shen Xingyao glanced at Shen Biluo and knelt down: “Your Humble Servant…is guilty!”
【Why is my Second Brother pleading guilty?!】 Shen Biluo said in puzzlement.
“Your Humble Servant recently brought a concubine into the mansion, but I just found out that she is a Xi Yan spy!” Shen Xingyao said.
【Wow, my Second Brother is not too stupid after all! He actually discovered this!】
Shen Xingyao: What do you mean “not too stupid”…
Second Brother, just take it as a compliment!
【That’s good, he probably won’t be affected…】 Shen Biluo breathed a sigh of relief.
The Emperor let Shen Biluo go back first.
Shen Biluo obediently agreed, knowing that there were important matters to be dealt with next, and didn’t ask any further questions; she turned around and left.
The Emperor first sent someone to summon Divine Physician Yun Sheng to the palace.
In the Hall of Diligent Governance, besides a few confidantes and servants, only the Emperor and the Second Prince were present.
For a moment, no one spoke, the hall was very quiet, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy and oppressive.
Shen Xingyao hung his head, carefully watching the Emperor’s expression from the corner of his eye.
Seeing that the Father Emperor’s brows were furrowed, and his eyes were filled with anger, his heart trembled, and he prostrated himself on the ground, his forehead almost touching the cold gold bricks.
“Father Emperor, Your Humble Servant is foolish! Your Humble Servant shouldn’t have looked for women outside and been used by villains!” Shen Xingyao cried, his voice trembling slightly.
After saying this, he was startled. He couldn’t speak in the Hall of Supreme Harmony just now, how could he speak now?
Could it be that he can only not speak in front of Biluo?
The Emperor slammed the imperial case heavily, causing a few drops of ink to splash from the inkstone.
Pointing at Shen Xingyao, he angrily said: “Aren’t the wives and concubines in your home enough for you to enjoy? You still go out to find more! Can’t you control your lower body?!”
Shen Xingyao shrank his neck, his voice as thin as a mosquito’s whine: “Your Humble Servant knows his wrong…”
“Now you’ve been used by someone with ulterior motives, if it weren’t for Biluo, do you know what kind of disaster would have happened!” The Emperor roared, his chest rising and falling violently.
Sons are truly inferior to daughters!
Shen Xingyao knelt on the ground, cold sweat oozing from his palms, sticking to the gold bricks. He bit his lip tightly, not daring to make a sound.
The Emperor took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said: “I will punish you with twenty strokes of the cangue. After you return to the mansion, I will send someone to carry out the punishment.”
“You are not allowed to look for women outside anymore!”
Shen Xingyao had a bitter face, knowing that he couldn’t escape today’s fate.
He is a prince, with so many wives, concubines, children and servants in his mansion, the Father Emperor wants to beat him, it’s too embarrassing!
Thinking of the scene of the servants whispering, his ears burned red.
But now he could only grit his teeth and agree: “Your Humble Servant…accepts the punishment.”
Seeing that his son’s attitude of admitting his mistakes was acceptable, the Emperor’s expression eased slightly, and then he said: “Is that brothel woman still in your mansion?”
A cold light flashed in Shen Xingyao’s eyes, his knuckles turning white: “Yes, she is still in Your Humble Servant’s mansion.”
“Ask Yun Sheng how to kill the Gu Worm later. Then go to your mansion and directly capture that woman and kill the Gu Worm.” The Emperor said.
Since Soaring Eagle can’t be found for now, the Gu Worm must also be killed to cause a backlash on him.
Daring to plot against his son, how can he not give him a lesson?
After a while, Yun Sheng came in, wearing a simple light-colored long gown, and bowed to the Emperor and the Second Prince.
Yun Sheng’s medical clinic in Kyoto is relatively close to the Imperial Palace, so he arrived quickly.
Before, the Emperor wanted him to enter the palace to become an Imperial Physician, but he was not interested, so the Emperor helped him open a medical clinic in Kyoto, very close to the Imperial Palace.
The Emperor told him about the Gu Worm.
Yun Sheng immediately said: “For this kind of Gu Worm, you need to use Mint to lure it out, and then burn it to death.”
The Emperor nodded, this Yun Sheng is indeed professional.
He immediately ordered Eunuch Shen Kuan to draft an edict, appointing him as a Ren Shou Lang of the sixth rank, because he was not interested in officialdom, this was just a titular position, without the need to be on duty, but he could receive a salary.
Yun Sheng quickly thanked him.
The Emperor ordered He Da to send reliable Shadow Guards to follow Shen Xingyao back to his mansion.
To capture that brothel woman alive, their skills must not be too bad.
