Shen Yu didn't speak, he stared blankly, as if frightened.

The temperature in the room was like a cold wind passing through, and it was bitingly cold. The man kneeling on the ground kept his head down and tried his best not to lose his composure on the spot.

Shang Junlin looked at Shen Yu silently, the ink in his eyes getting darker.

The deep air pressed against his body, silently urging him to walk over. Shen Yu took two steps forward and stopped a few steps away from the pool of blood.

He could feel that the eyes with a strong sense of presence stayed on him, and the air pressure in the imperial study room was extremely low. If he was less courageous in depression, he might collapse to the ground immediately.

"It will stain your clothes, Your Majesty, why didn't you come to my side?"

The man who was about to explode was suffocated, the air in his body froze, and even the man kneeling beside him couldn't help but raise his head.

Shang Junlin glanced casually, and the man immediately lowered his head in fright, not daring to be presumptuous anymore.

"Heh," Shang Junlin laughed suddenly, "You are quite courageous."

If any substantial eyes fell on him, Shen Yu met him impartially, and the two eyes met. Shen Yu couldn't see what Shang Junlin was thinking, but felt that the other party seemed to be in a better mood.

Throwing the handkerchief for wiping hands into the pool of blood, the white was instantly stained with blood red, Shang Junlin didn't even look at it, and strode towards the depression.

Standing in place, Shen Yu watched the Xuanyi King walk towards him step by step. Every time he took a step, the hostility on the opponent's body disappeared.

Until standing in front of him, Emperor Xuanyi's aura had completely subsided.

Shen Yu raised the food box in his hand: "I brought soup for His Majesty, do you want His Majesty to use it?"

He didn't even ask why such a scene appeared in the Imperial Study Room.

"Aren't you afraid?" Shang Junlin asked with great interest.

There is no trace of fear on Shen Yu's face, and the blood red on the ground seems to not exist in his eyes. According to Shang Junlin's understanding, Shen Yu should not have seen such a scene.

The probing eyes fell on his face, and his gloomy face remained unchanged. Of course he would not be afraid. The bloody scene caused by his hands in his previous life was far more cruel than the one in front of him.

Shen Yu turned his head to look at the man lying in the pool of blood, then slowly turned his gaze to the kneeling man, and finally, his gaze returned to the face of the man in front of him.

The man was almost a head taller than Shen Yu, and the two were so close that Shen Yu had to look up to see his face.

"Since he has offended His Majesty, he deserves what happens to him." He stared at Shang Junlin's eyes gloomily, and said word by word.

The pupils shrank invisibly, and Shang Junlin raised his hand to pinch his depressed chin: "I didn't expect my noble lord to be so close to me."

The man's tone was calm, without the slightest joy, and he kept staring at the man's face gloomily, not missing the momentary change of expression on the other's face.

"Your Majesty," Shen Yu stretched out his hand to grab the man's hand pinching his chin, implying, "I am His Majesty's man, so I naturally turn to His Majesty in everything."

"You'd better remember what you said at all times." Shang Junlin let go of his hand, his expression became gentle, "Didn't you say you brought me soup? Let me taste your master's craftsmanship."

Shen Yu lightened his hand, and Shang Junlin carried the food box over, and then his hand became hot, and was held by the man's strong hand.

Shen Yu was led by the other party, walked around the pool of blood, and sat in front of the imperial case.

Shang Junlin didn't order the palace staff, and opened the food box by himself. In an instant, the aroma of the food wafted out, tempting the secretion of saliva.

only…

This aroma mixed with the bloody smell that cannot be ignored, it was indescribably weird.

Shen Yu glanced down, and no one dared to move without Shang Junlin's order. Seeing that Shang Junlin was going to drink the soup directly, Shen Yu tugged at his sleeve.

"Why, Your Majesty became afraid after realizing it?"

The man's eyebrows and eyes were hidden behind the dense heat, and he couldn't see clearly.

"No, Your Majesty doesn't think..." Sullen paused, "Is it unappetizing to dine in such an environment?"

In some respects, Depression has a strange obsession, for example, he doesn't like any obtrusive things appearing in front of his eyes when eating.

For the people kneeling on the ground and lying in a pool of blood, Shen Yu doesn't care how they offended Shang Junlin. The current Shang Junlin is not a tyrant who killed innocent people indiscriminately a few years later. He has a certain reason for what he does. He didn't intend to get involved in the affairs of the court either.

Without missing the flash of disgust on his gloomy face, Shang Junlin paused, put the bowl in his hand back on the table, and said softly, "Meng Chang."

The door of the imperial study opened with a "squeak" and warm light came in from outside. Eunuch Meng came in with several men in uniform black uniforms.

These men all wore masks, with only a pair of eyes exposed. Sullen had never seen a person dressed like this before, so he took a few more curious glances.

These people moved swiftly, but their sense of presence was not high. In less than a quarter of an hour, the imperial study room was restored to its original state. Even the kneeling people were dragged out with their mouths covered. There was no movement at all. It depends on the familiarity of the movements. Such a thing Should not do less.

"This is the Yinlongwei."

The sudden sound brought back Shen Yu's thoughts, and when he came back to his senses, he found that the king in Xuanyi was looking at him with a confused expression.

Yinlongwei, Shen Yu, has heard of the existence of this hidden guard in his previous life. It is the sharpest knife in the hands of the royal family, and it is also the most loyal force. Except for the current emperor, no one can command them.

Shen Yu had dealt with them in his previous life, and knew how terrifying their power was. He was definitely a formidable opponent. Shang Junyue didn't know how much he had suffered in their hands.

In this life, he should not confront them...

"It's cleaned up, can we eat now?"

Before Shen Yu could say anything, Shang Junlin had already looked away, picked up the soup and took a sip, a faint smile appeared where no one was paying attention.

Shen Yu accompanied Shang Junlin to finish the meal, and left after getting enough sense of presence.

Throughout the afternoon, Shang Junlin's mood cleared up a lot.

Not long after, the emperor's reward came down, and all kinds of treasures were continuously sent to Yuzhang Palace, and the news spread outside the palace with Shang Junlin's acquiescence.

As expected, after one afternoon, the news about how he was favored spread again. Not many people cared about the other things that happened in the imperial study room. A few people will die in the palace every once in a while. Trembling has become a habit.

Power and money are undoubtedly exciting. With such a good example as Shen Yu, people with small thoughts can no longer hold back. If they can succeed, what awaits them is a road to the sky.

Zhao Guogong's mansion.

Zhao Guogong invited his son and confidants to discuss matters in the study.

"Father, this is an opportunity. There is only one person in the harem now, and he is still a man who cannot bear children. If a girl from our family enters the palace and gives birth to a son and a half daughter, maybe in the future..." Zhao Guogong's second son pointed For God's sake, what is not said is what is not said.

"What the Second Young Master said is very true. It's better to seize the opportunity before it's too late." One of the confidants also agreed.

"This matter must be planned in detail, and His Majesty must not be annoyed by this matter, otherwise the gain outweighs the loss."

Similar words happened in many high-ranking officials' mansions. Before the depression, Shang Junlin never let go of the harem matter. Even if they wanted to send their own girls into the palace, they had no chance. Now it is different. I have tasted it, and I think His Majesty will not Refuse the beauty to enter the palace again.

In order to gain His Majesty's favor as soon as possible, some families even prepared beautiful men. His Majesty is interested in Shen Guijun, and maybe he will also be interested in other men.

All kinds of turmoil inside and outside the palace did not affect Shen Yu, and only after a good night's sleep did Shen Yu know what happened in the imperial study that day.

It turned out that someone reached into the palace and wanted to use the news he got to make a profit. Shang Junlin was too lazy to deal with these people, so he directly chopped him off.

Shang Junlin moved quickly and didn't give people a chance at all. He searched for clues to find him, and he couldn't help but put him in prison.

Except for a small number of people who had snooped the truth, most people didn't know what happened. Seeing Shang Junlin suddenly attacking a well-known family, they couldn't help but feel a little chilled while trembling with fear.

Someone who was on good terms with that family begged for mercy when he went to court, but the young emperor looked on coldly and didn't say a word.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Yushi has always been fair and strict, please forgive me."

"I beg Your Majesty to be lenient."

"Since you all think Zhang Yushi is right, do you think I'm wrong?"

"I dare not!"

"I see that you are very brave. Whoever begs again will go to prison to accompany Zhang Yushi. I believe Zhang Yushi will be very grateful for your kindness as a colleague."

As soon as the voice fell, the hall suddenly fell silent, and some people who begged for mercy began to shrink back. The ministers all knew that the emperor was not joking when he said this. If someone continued to beg for mercy, he would be sent to prison directly. It happened more than once or twice.

Several people looked at each other and took a step forward, obviously not planning to back down.

It was already a day later when Shen Yu got the news, because His Majesty was in a bad mood, the palace was turbulent, everyone was in danger, and the atmosphere in Yuzhang Palace was also a little sluggish.

"Young master..." Mu Xi showed worry on her face. She was close to the young master and knew a little more about the inside story than the palace people. Outsiders said how the young master was favored, but only she knew that was not the case.

"The three adults were really imprisoned for pleading?" Shen Yu asked while fiddling with the beads.

"Yes, before the morning court was over, His Majesty asked someone to drag them down."

Sullen and silent, the matter of Zhang Yushi happened in the previous life, but it happened a lot later than now. Although Zhang Yushi is clean on the surface, he has done a lot of things behind the scenes, buying and selling officials, occupying fertile land, manipulating The murderer... It's just that he hid it deeply and did a good job in the aftermath, so no one knew about it.

Shang Junlin arrested someone, but did not announce his crimes, allowing others to misunderstand, whether he really didn't know or...

Grabbing Mrs. Tang in her hand, she stood up sullenly: "Go for a walk."

Mu Xi took the cloak and put it on for Shen Yu, and the two left Yuzhang Palace with a few palace attendants.

"You still want to climb a branch and become a phoenix, without seeing what you look like?"

"Hey, who do you want to seduce by dressing like this?"

"Your master has been imprisoned, why should you be so proud?"

Noise came from not far away, the palace servant was about to step forward to reprimand, but was stopped by Shen Yu.

The place where Shen Yu is located is at the corner, just enough to take in the scene not far away. Several palace people are surrounding a thinly dressed woman, punching and kicking, taunting and swearing. The woman lowered her head, her face covered by her hair. The hand that fell to the side was tightly held, enduring the malice from all around.

Deliberately making some noise, Shen Yu and his group were quickly discovered, and the palace people quickly knelt down to pay their respects. When Shen Yu approached, a gust of wind blew past, and the woman's face was exposed, and Shen Yu's footsteps stopped.

— This woman's eyebrows and eyes are three points similar to his.
