"So, where did so many snakes come from?"

This is not only my question, but also something Lin Jingyu wants to know urgently. After all, it was him who was almost bitten by a snake yesterday, and the palace maid was probably implicated.

Qin Murong did not follow us in circles. He took a step forward, put his hands in his sleeves, bent down slightly, and replied respectfully: "The cook keeps it in the food storehouse of the imperial dining room so that the emperor and ladies can eat it whenever they want."

Live animals that were offered in time. In addition, there are also five-clawed dragons, turtles, and some wild mountain delicacies, seafood, river fresh food, etc., which are also kept separately in the ponds of the food warehouse."

I’m speechless. This can open a zoo!

"Those seven snakes are all from the imperial kitchen?" Lin Jingyu did not express surprise, only frowned slightly.

"...There is one that probably grows wild in the garden..." Qin Murong paused and replied with some embarrassment.

"Kill!" Lin Jingyu said harshly. There was an indescribable gloom in that low and depressed voice. I couldn't help but look at him twice. His face looked very bad. However, his eyes were too cruel.

some.

"Is the emperor going to execute those creatures immediately? Or -" Mandrill immediately became energetic, his eyes were bright, and he could tell at a glance that he was bloodthirsty.

"It's just a snake..." I muttered quietly.

Lin Jingyu glanced at me sideways, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "I won't embarrass the beast."

Yeah? I touched my chin. Could it be——

"Take care of all those incompetent cooks before sunset." Sure enough, the cold and emotionless voice gave me an answer that surprised me.

Seeing Mandrill leave immediately, I immediately called him.

"etc!"

He paused, but just looked back at me, then turned his face and continued to move forward. Seeing that he was about to step out, I quickly quickened my pace and rushed forward, grabbing his hand. But I didn't want him to be too small.

Akira, avoided my touch, and then walked away without looking back.

I was so angry that I shouted, "Stop Mandrill for me!" A group of guards immediately rushed into the yard and stopped the man in red. However, the guards only blocked Mandrill's path and did not rush to arrest Mandrill.

.

"Get out of the way!" Mandrill shouted coldly.

They looked at Mandrill with embarrassment, and then looked at me cautiously.

I knew they were in awe of this man who was fearless, and the mandrill was a god-like existence in the minds of these warriors. What's more, I didn't want to make things so awkward, so I said slowly:

"Mandrill, look back and see who I am."

The magnificent red figure froze. After a while, he slowly turned around, lowered his head and did not look at me. He knelt down on one leg, saluted me respectfully, and said in a suppressed voice: "Your Majesty, I am here to greet you.

Your Majesty." His voice was cold and calm, and I couldn't tell much of his thoughts, but I just knew that this guy was angry.

I sighed lowly and said to him, "Come in! I have something to tell you."

This time he didn't hesitate, he immediately stood up and approached me. When he came to me, he didn't even stop. He walked directly past me and returned to the room. I waved to the guards who were confused about the situation and said something.

"It's all gone." Then he turned around and walked in.

As soon as the door closed, Lin Jingyu immediately pounced on me, grabbed me by the collar, lowered his voice and asked fiercely: "Those cooks should be damned! Why did they stop my decision?"

I dragged him to the center of the room, gently patted his shoulders, and comforted him: "They are also responsible, but it was definitely not their fault!"

"Irreversible mistakes caused by carelessness are even more damnable! What's the use of keeping these useless wastes!"

"They are not trash! At least what we eat and drink every day is carefully prepared by them!" I was also angry. How could this person judge others like this!

"If you make mistakes and don't punish them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public and make it even harder to manage in the future." He snorted disdainfully.

"Their sins will not lead to death!" I gritted my teeth.

"Do I deserve to be frightened like this in vain?" Lin Jingyu's anger only increased, and his voice gradually became louder, "Alarming the Holy Master is a capital offense!"

"Your Majesty, calm down—" Qin Murong probably couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to persuade him.

"Shut up!" Lin Jingyu and I turned to him and shouted in unison. Qin Murong asked for trouble, sighed, shook his head, lazily walked to a chair nearby and sat down to drink tea.

There was no sign of any annoyance on his face, he just narrowed his fox eyes and looked at us sideways, half-smiling, with a lazy and gorgeous figure that was full of charm.

I swallowed my saliva. If I was dumped by Lin Jingyu, it would be nice to change my taste... But why do I have to like that arrogant and difficult-to-communicate kid? This weird thought has been bothering me. It seems that from the beginning

I've been coveting him since the beginning. If the person I met first was Qin Hu...

Mandrill coughed slightly, and I quickly came to my senses.

What I saw in front of me was Lin Jingyu's somewhat gloomy young face, and his pair of clear eyes were staring at me very unhappily.

I also feel that I was too excited just now and did not take into account Lin Jingyu's psychology. In addition, he is the real pampered emperor... Am I saying it too harshly?

I touched my nose, glanced at him guiltily, looked away, and apologized softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't take your feelings into consideration."

Lin Jingyu raised his eyebrows, hummed softly, and without answering, walked directly to the soft couch and sat down. His eyes first glanced at my face, and then he looked away unnaturally. Then he put one hand on the armrest of the chair and raised his hand to caress me gently.

With a thin chin, his eyes were slightly squinted, staring at an unknown place in front of him, and then at someone Qin, wondering what he was planning.

Mandrill immediately moved the fire pot on the side closer. There was also a copper basin placed in the basin, half filled with water, and steam was rising. There was a wine pot soaked in the water, exuding some mellow aroma of wine.

Qin Murong picked up the wine pot, and I immediately stepped forward, picked up the wine glass, and handed it to him. He looked at me in surprise, his thumb on the handle of the pot trembled slightly, he paused, and poured it for me.

A full cup.

I turned around and carefully brought the wine glass to Lin Jingyu. I held the exquisite and gorgeous silver cup filled with fine wine and jade liquid in both hands and handed it to him.

He pursed his lips and took it quietly. As soon as he handed the cup to his lips, I suddenly said:

"The wine is poisonous."

The thin fingers trembled, and the transparent and fragrant liquid overflowed a little and wet his cuffs. Qin Murong on the side reacted faster than him, and immediately reached out and slapped the cup away. There was a sound of a sword being unsheathed behind him.

There was a sound, and then, my neck came into contact with the cold metal, and my skin stung. Only then did the delicate silver cup fall to the ground, making a dull and subtle sound, and rolled aside.

He moves so fast...that's the only thing that comes to my mind.

"You! Looking for death!" Mandrill was furious, but he didn't dare to take action. After all, this is a dragon body!

Lin Jingyu trembled slightly and stared at me in disbelief. His lips moved, but he couldn't say anything.

Qin Murong stood in front of him, looked at me steadily for a while, and then said uncertainly:

"Are you kidding me? I didn't see you drugging me."

I shrugged, ignored the sharp knife on my neck, bent down, picked up the silver cup, stuck out my tongue and licked the remaining wine in the cup, smacked my lips, and sighed: "What a pity for this good glass of wine!"

Mandrill immediately sheathed his sword, picked up my collar, and angrily yelled: "You—"

I flattened my mouth unhappily. "I am also the emperor now! How can you be so rude to me? What will you do if others see you? I will not protect you! You are not of my use."

Mandrill was discouraged. He muttered something in his mouth, and stood aside obediently with his sword in his arms. He squinted his eyes and deliberately did not look at me. Maybe he was afraid that he would be impulsive and do something disrespectful to this dragon body.
