Rebirth As a Fatuous and Self-indulgent Ruler
chapter-273

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Mr. Chen was indeed furious!

He had been ready to take the last step!

He planned to poison Mr. Song first and use that man to hold back Liu so that he could proceed with his plan.

In less than two days, he could control those animals and made them run into the city.

That included the animals in all the hills of Songye city!

If all of them ran into the city, people wouldn’t be able to do anything to them, no matter how many people there were.

The people who were bitten by those animals would die if they didn’t take antidote in an hour.

As for the dead, if Mr. Chen could get the corpses, he would turn them into poisonous creatures like those animals. The poisonous people in Quanzhou were just made like that! In that way, the entire city would be in chaos!

That object was called treasure because the poison produced by it could numb people’s nerves to control them and make them die in a short time!

A dead person who had been poisoned by that would become a living corpse!

What a wonderful plan that was! With that treasure, he could create hundreds of thousands troops!

If it wasn’t like that, how could he become the leader at this place? How could the crown prince of Eastern Darkness put him in such an important position?

Although that object was in the hands of the imperial court, he believed that no one could figure out how to use it, at least not in a short time!

Therefore, as long as he hurried up and turned Songye city into a hell on earth, then he could get his treasure back!

He only needed two more days. In two days, this place would be in a mess and his plan would succeed!

But the fact was… Damn it!

Liu Suifeng! That doctor again! Why was he that powerful?!

How could he work out the antidote in such a short time?!

Mr. Chen thought that he’d spent so many years making that poison! He even used that treasure!

Why? Why? How could Liu work out the antidote in such a short time?

Why?! Why?!

Mr. Chen was really going crazy!

He couldn’t restrain his anger, so he grabbed two of his subordinates and took out their hearts… Then, he ate them!

The biggest problem that had been bothering him these days was solved, so Long had a sound sleep at night.

The next morning, Long didn’t wake up until the sun was high in the sky.

When he opened his eyes, he found Shi was still sleeping!

Long understood that his empress was under more pressure than him in the past few days.

Therefore, after Liu solved the big problem, Shi could be able to sleep peacefully.

Turning his head, Long gently kissed Shi’s cheek.

At this time, Shi’s eyelids flickered and then he opened his eyes.

Long lowered his head and kissed Shi gently.

Shi blinked slightly and closed his eyes…

Long’s kiss was very tender and Shi responded gently.

Seeing that his empress was so gentle and obedient, Long really felt… a little excited.

So he couldn’t help deepening the kiss.

Shi also unconsciously wrapped his arms around Long’s neck.

Feeling that Shi was so active, Long got more passionate.

There was a noticeable rise in the temperature of the room.

Shi’s body trembled slightly and Long held Shi into his arms…

After a long time, the temperature in the room was gradually lowered and Long finally let go of Shi with satisfaction.

At this moment, Shi had already closed his eyes and Long kissed his lips with a smile.

“Qingzhou, are you very sleepy?”

Shi said lazily, “Yes, I’ll get some more sleep.”

“Okay. Mr. Song has returned. Although he needs to be nursed back to health, he has no problem speaking. You can sleep now.”

“Mhmm…” Shi fell asleep soon.

Long kissed his forehead and simply washed his body before going out.

Ying Feng had been waiting outside for a long time.

“Stay inside. Ying Qiu will follow me,” Long said.

“Yes.” Ying Feng and Ying Qiu both responded. Then, Long walked to Liu’s room.

When Long got there, Liu was having breakfast with Ouyang.

The two of them were not surprised to see Long coming.

“Have you eaten?” Liu asked.

“Not yet.” Long answered and then asked the Shadow Guardian next to him to bring a pair of chopsticks.

The Shadow Guardian quickly delivered Long’s tableware.

While eating, Long said, “Although we smashed Mr. Chen’s conspiracy this time, he will definitely not give up. Most importantly, I think, he’ll go crazy.”

“He’s already gone crazy,” Liu said disapprovingly.

Long shook his head and looked at Liu. “I think he probably wants to eat you alive now. You must be careful.”

“That’s true.” Liu agreed with this. “Don’t worry. Even if he wants to eat me, he needs to have the ability.”

Ouyang frowned and stared at Liu. “Don’t be careless.”

“By the way, where’s that object?” Long asked.

Liu said, “I buried it. I bet he can’t find it.”

Long raised his eyebrows. “You just buried it? I thought you’d study it carefully.”

“That’s enough. I don’t want to be as abnormal as that Mr. Chen.”

“Well, you are right.” Long also agreed with this. “You have a sense of propriety. That’s very good.”

Liu rolled his eyes. “Of course. Do you think I’m an idiot?”

“Haha.” Long laughed. “How dare I treat you as an idiot? I still want to live in this world.”

Ouyang couldn’t help laughing when he heard this.

After the three of them happily finished their breakfast, Long said, “Do you have any plans for today?”

Liu shook his head. “No. I think I can go to examine Madam Zhou’s blood.”

“Okay. You can stay in the house. I will go to Song mansion.”

“Oh? You’ll go there?”

“Yes. Is there any problem?” Long looked at the two of them.

Ouyang said, “Where is Shi Qingzhou?”

“Qingzhou is sleeping.” Long said that with a smile on his face, looking very contented.

Both Ouyang and Liu couldn’t help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

This man… was really so cheeky!

After Long left, Liu curled his lips, while Ouyang said, “Go ahead and do your job. I’ll sleep for a while.”

“Oh?” Liu blinked and looked at him. “Sleep?”

“Yes, I haven’t had a good rest during these days.”

“Okay. Brother Ouyang, have a good sleep.”

“Yes. Go to work.”

Liu left and Long also went out with several Shadow Guardians.

This time, Long decided to show up because what happened in Songye city was of great importance.

Long would be in trouble if his identity was exposed in front of other officials.

But it wouldn’t matter if that was Song Qingtian.

Moreover, Song also needed comfort after all that had happened.

To comfort a minister, what would be more useful than the emperor’s presence?

Therefore, Long went to Song mansion.

Wearing a mask, he went there with Shi’s “written instruction”.

However, when there was only Long, a Shadow Guardian and Song in the room, Long immediately took off his mask, which greatly shocked Song. “Greetings, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty.”

Long hurriedly helped Song up.

“Mr. Song, there’s no need to do this. You’re injured and need to rest, so you can skip the formalities. Moreover, I came here secretly and not many people know it, so you can pretend that you’ve never seen me later.”

“I understand,” Song said immediately.

After comforting him for a while, Long said, “I also came here for another matter this time.”

“Your Majesty, please enlighten me.”

“How much do you know about the kidnapping?”

“I’m sorry. I’ve been unconscious, so I don’t know much about it. I only know that Doctor Liu saved me.”

“Right. I’ve come here to tell you about it in detail. In addition, you need to keep order in Songye city.”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

It was already two hours later when Long left Song mansion.

Song wanted to kneel down to see Long off, but was stopped.

After Long left Song mansion, a young man dressed as a servant hurriedly left from a place not far away.

Soon after, that young man got to a remote place.

“Mr. Chen, that damn emperor has come out of Song mansion.”

“Okay.” Mr. Chen’s voice was very hoarse. “Just leave him be. There are many people following him wherever he goes. You only need to pay close attention to Liu Suifeng’s whereabouts. From today on, as long as he appears, you can kill him! If Liu Suifeng isn’t dead, our master’s great cause won’t be accomplished! He must die!”

Mr. Chen roared hysterically. That scene was really terrifying.

His subordinates didn’t dare to disobey him and immediately agreed.

“Please rest assured, Mr. Chen. We will keep a close eye on Liu Suifeng and kill him soon!”

“It’s better to catch him alive. I’m going to cut him up in person!”

“Yes!” Mr. Chen’s subordinates responded in unison.

Mr. Chen panted heavily. It seemed that he finally felt a little satisfied, so he waved his hand. “All right, you can leave now.”

His subordinates left soon. With scarlet eyes, Chen Mengxing was filled with anger.
