Quick Wear: The Cold God is infinitely fond of the host

Chapter 114 The Dark Emperor's Seduction of the Oiran (43)

Chuntao was a little troubled for a moment.

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.

Although I don't know what the regent's intention is, it would be inappropriate to turn someone away since he has brought gifts on his own initiative.

At this time, Quan Si took the initiative to push open the door.

He let out a light breath of cold air, and frost and snow stained his eyelashes, revealing a stunning and enchanting crimson color.

Wei Yuanzhuo opened his eyes and saw the man in front of him wearing a thick white fox fur coat. The snow-white fur made his face look even more stunning.

This was the first time he had faced Quan Si in this state. Before, whenever he saw him, he always wore a mask and disguised himself.

Now, it is fully revealed.

Really stunning.

"Your Highness, please come in. I just caught a slight cold. It's nothing serious."

After Quan Si said this, he turned around and went back into the house.

The astonishment in Wei Yuanzhuo's eyes did not diminish at all, and he was obviously mesmerized.

Chuntao on the side couldn't help but let out a soft click of the tongue.

Wei Yuanzhuo's attention was all on Quan Si, so he didn't notice her actions.

When everyone was completely inside, Chuntao couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Her intuition told her that this ghost prince must be coveting her master.

Pooh!

His Majesty the Emperor and these young masters are the best match, both in temperament and appearance.

The two of them standing together are so pleasing to the eyes.

She was so excited watching it, she couldn't wait to see them doing that...hehehe, those who understand will understand.

Quan Si didn't know that this seemingly well-behaved little maid under his command had a head full of dirty trash.

"Chun Tao, close the door after you come in." Quan Si's voice came from the inner room.

"Oh, okay, here comes the master!" Chuntao hurried in and closed the door.

Unlike the freezing cold outside, there was a stove in the house, and the warmth was pleasant.

Wei Yuanzhuo took the initiative to present the gift he brought to Quan Si and said in a gentle voice:

"The best American ginseng can calm the mind and eliminate fatigue."

"Since you are still suffering from the cold, you should take it in moderation, which will help you recover soon."

"Thank you, Your Highness. It's thoughtful." Quan Si glanced at her lightly, indicating Chun Tao to accept it.

"The prince's residence is really far away and the weather is cold. He must have come here for something."

Quan Si blew on the tea in the cup, and mist swirled around, filling his vision.

Wei Yuanzhuo had seen many good-looking people, but this was the first time he had seen someone as stunningly beautiful as the one in front of him.

It’s so beautiful that you can’t take your eyes off it.

His every move and every subtle change in expression were so elegant that one could not bear to desecrate them.

Seeing that the other party had seen through his thoughts, Wei Yuanzhuo no longer concealed his intentions and said straight to the point:

"I think you are a rare talent. If you assist me in the future, you will surely shine."

The corners of his mouth were filled with a determined smile, "My Lord, I'm sure you have noticed my ambition, why don't we plan together?"

Quan Si was shocked but he maintained his usual calmness.

This person is very courageous.

While still in the palace, he openly extended an olive branch to him, trying to unite with him in a rebellion.

Throughout the dynasties, any minister who had the intention of rebellion was eventually ruthlessly executed by the emperor.

That's a capital crime punishable by beheading!

"Forgive my ignorance, I really don't understand what Your Majesty means."

The corners of Quan Si's lips curled slightly, and he looked ignorant of the world, docile and without any edge.

But this innocent appearance is just a disguise for his evil and vicious nature. In fact, he has many bad intentions.

She is evil to the core, yet she is also beautiful.

"What he has, I also have," Wei Yuanzhuo still did not give up, "I can also give you power and status."

"I am just an ordinary person," Quan Si said calmly, "I just want to follow my heart and live as I please."

The implication is: I don’t want to be used or restricted.

Wei Yuanzhuo's expression turned a little colder when he saw that the purpose of this trip had not been achieved.

"There are many variables in the world. If you change your mind, I will welcome you at any time."

He stood up and left.

"Goodbye, Your Highness." Quan Si did not stand up, but just watched his back.

"Chun Tao, open it and take a look." She stretched out her hand and pointed at the so-called tonic that Wei Yuanzhuo had just brought.

When I opened the sealed lid, I found that it was indeed filled with American ginseng.

The surface is light yellow, with fine leather texture, raised horizontal lenticels, and a full and firm texture.

The fracture surface is slightly horny, and there are often small cracks between the cortex and wood or in the center.

Judging from the appearance alone, both the color and texture are of high quality, and it must be a rare item imported from other countries.

only...

Quan Si took out the American ginseng, examined it carefully, and suddenly his gaze paused.

There is only a barely perceptible scratch in the lower right corner, which is very small and difficult to find.

Based on the shape, it can be initially judged that it was caused by human fingertips.

The uneasiness in my heart became stronger and stronger.

"Chun Tao, bring me my silver needle for testing poison."

Not long after, a silver needle appeared in Quan Si's hand, which was small and short.

A silver light flashed, emitting a lustrous luster.

He inserted the silver needle into the body of the American ginseng without hesitation, and saw that the silver needle began to darken at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This thing is poisonous." Quan Si carefully disinfected the silver needle before putting it away.

He frowned slightly, and had a general idea in mind.

It seems that the regent was planning to give him a colorless and odorless chronic poison.

Regardless of whether he really accepted the olive branch thrown by Wei Yuanzhuo today and assisted the other party's ambitions.

If he hadn't discovered the poison, he would have eaten it by mistake.

Then, death is the only way waiting for him.

Sure enough, the people within these high walls are more vicious than each other.

Somehow, someone's face appeared in Quan Si's mind.

In this comparison, Qin Ji behaved particularly differently in front of him and never showed his terrifying side.

Always give him unlimited sense of security and extreme preference, put his feelings first, and subconsciously care about and consider him.

"Chun Tao, wrap this thing up and throw it into the water. Let it sink to the bottom of the lake. Be careful not to attract attention."

"Yes, son."

*

A few more days passed like this.

The days were abnormally calm, and there seemed to be a storm on the horizon.

This day.

As usual, Quan Si attended the weekly morning court.

However, this time, unlike in the past, there were envoys from other countries coming to pay tribute.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." The man knelt on one knee, spoke respectfully, and placed his right hand on his left chest.

This person came from the neighboring country of Dongao.

"I have long heard that the monarch of the Northern Xiao Kingdom is extremely graceful and majestic without even getting angry. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is indeed well-deserved."

"Your Excellency, thank you for your hard work in traveling all the way," Qin Ji waved his long sleeves, his majesty suddenly revealed, "Please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am deeply grateful." The man thanked the emperor and glanced around unintentionally.

When he saw Quan Si sitting in front of all the officials, his pupils suddenly shrank.

How come this man looks so similar to the late Concubine Qing?!
