Chapter 229 The Spirit Obtains the Emperor’s Favor, Zi You Punishes the Wicked Part 1/3
Sure enough, one Shuiling made Xuanwu Emperor immediately trust her. Then the following would be easy to do.
Zi You pretended to ponder for a moment and then reminded, “Emperor, Darong Ka’s demon snake is poisonous. Judging from your appearance, you must have been harmed by it. You should listen to Shuiling. She knows medicine and can nurture your body. As for the imperial doctors, you should be on guard against them. Chen doesn’t know if they have bad intentions. Emperor shouldn’t forget about the Imperial Doctor Qin who was controlled by Darong Ka.”
The Emperor was nervous as soon as he heard her. “What? Darong Ka is dead, but he can still control people?”
Zi You deliberately nodded solemnly. “He left a Devil Ring behind. Whoever has the Devil Ring can control people. You should be careful, Emperor.”
“Devil Ring?” The Emperor widened his eyes in shock. “What does it look like?”
“It’s made of black gold. There’s a spell on it.” Zi You replied, “Chen never saw what it looks like. However, since Darong Ka is dead, the Devil Ring will warn its owner and emit a red light. That red light can’t be hidden. As long as you send someone to search for it, you should be able to find it, Emperor. At least, you should search for it in the Palace right now. We can’t let it hurt you, the Empress, the Empress Dowager, or the other consorts.”
“Zhen understands.” The Emperor was scared and immediately waved to Eunuch Yu. “Pass the decree and carefully search for the Devil Ring. Make sure it’s found.”
Zi You smiled. Empress, I want to see how you’re getting out of this one. You wouldn’t think that the Devil Ring that helped you would eventually send you to the guillotine, right?
Zi You said to Eunuch Yu, “Eunuch Yu, tell the guards it’s best to act at night. When there’s no light at night, the place where the Devil Ring is hidden is wherever a red light is emitting.”
“Yes.” Eunuch Yu didn’t dare to delay and immediately took his leave.
Zi You saw how Xuanwu Emperor didn’t look displeased, so she knew his vigilance towards her had decreased. She said, “Emperor, Shuiling can transform into anyone and anything, but she needs your instructions. Other than you, no one else can command her. So, if you need her, you can keep her around you at all times. She can be a palace maid or an object around you.”
“You’re telling the truth?” Xuanwu Emperor was shocked. He did indeed want to keep Shuiling around him, so that he didn’t need to wish for morning court to end so he could come back to her.
Zi You smiled and nodded. “You can recite the spell and summon her here.”
Xuanwu Emperor instantly recited the spell. As Zi You said, once he finished the spell, Shuiling appeared in front of him. “Master, Shuiling is at your command.”
Xuanwu Emperor went over and tenderly held Shuiling’s hand. He smiled nauseatingly and said, “Zhen doesn’t want to leave you. Transform into a place maid and keep Zhen company.”
Shuiling smiled a smile that could confuse all living beings. Her body twirled and she transformed into a palace maid.
Xuanwu Emperor was stupefied and grinned happily. He didn’t even know when Zi You left.
Zi You was very happy. Xuanwu Emperor was no longer targeting her and he trusted her more than he used to now. She could finally concentrate on dealing with other people.
She would deal with them one by one. Now, she was going to deal with Wang Yiping. Zi You and Shangguan LingRan went to Hundred Herb Garden.
