Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 55 - An Assassin
55: Chapter 55: An Assassin?
55 -55: An Assassin?
Upon hearing this, the young Emperor immediately felt a headache coming on.
Just now, he had thought that the Empress wanted him to visit Anning Palace again, but to his absolute surprise, she actually wanted to come to the Imperial Study Room.
Wasn’t this delivering Lin Yi right to her?
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became, especially upon seeing the greedy gleam in Lin Yi’s eyes, which made him even more irritable.
He thought about asking the Empress not to come over, but then it struck him that even if she didn’t visit, he would probably still have to keep her company.
For the first time, the thought ‘women are such a hassle’ crossed the young Emperor’s mind.
Little did he know, he himself was also a little woman.
Taking a deep breath, he still spoke up:
“Alright, ask the Empress to come over.”
“Yes.”
Receiving a satisfactory answer, the Palace Maid immediately bowed and took her leave.
At that moment, Lin Yi’s thoughts also began to drift into the young Emperor’s mind:
[Hehe, this young Emperor is really something, knowing that I’ve had a hard day, he’s actually going to reward me.
That’s considerate, and it’s not in vain that your brother has been helping you so wholeheartedly.]
The young Emperor chose to outright ignore Lin Yi’s inner monologue.
This guy had no filter in his mind; he dared to say anything that came to his head.
It is fortunate for him to have met someone like me as the Emperor; if it were anyone else, he would have been dragged out and beheaded by now.
Even though he didn’t like looking at the guy, he waved dismissively at the people around to signal everyone to step outside.
Once everyone had left, he turned to Lin Yi with a very unfriendly tone:
“So, tell me, how are we going to deal with it this time?
We can’t possibly get the Empress drunk again, can we??”
After saying this, the young Emperor’s own face turned bright red.
What kind of karma is this?
It’s bad enough not to marry, but now I have to go out of my way to assist another woman.
Moreover, the one who helps is the very person I cherish.
And besides, I can’t even leave, just watching with my eyes wide open.
How to describe this feeling?
It’s even more disgusting than eating a fly.
But there’s no choice, for the sake of the greater good, I have to bear it.
However, facing the young Emperor’s question, Lin Yi immediately frowned and showed a troubled expression.
But contrary to his troubled look, he was already overflowing with joy on the inside:
[Hehe, isn’t it easy?
Just tell the Empress it’s a different kind of game, also called hide-and-seek.
Blindfold her, and then isn’t it up to us when to switch people?
You don’t need to do much, just stand behind me and say a few lines, and that’s it.
How could the Empress possibly find you?]
Of course, these thoughts were only dared to be pondered in his heart.
He was truly afraid that if he voiced them aloud, the young Emperor might explode on the spot.
While Lin Yi was indulging in his wild imagination, he didn’t realize that the young Emperor’s face had turned frighteningly grim.
Not only that, but the Emperor’s voice also suddenly rang out:
“Drag this scoundrel away, throw him in a bath tub and give him a good wash, make him smell nice.”
Lin Yi, who was nearby, obviously didn’t understand what the young Emperor meant by that.
For a moment, he was somewhat confused, looking at the young Emperor, wanting to confirm if these words were meant for him.
After all, at this point in the Imperial Study Room, only I alone remained.
Lin Yi decided to blatantly ignore the folks on the roof.
However, at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly felt a gust of wind striking towards him from behind.
Before his mind could react, his feet instinctively dodged.
Oddly enough, his entire body shifted like a ghost, instinctively running towards the young emperor.
Meanwhile, a hand trailing the wind brushed past Lin Yi’s ear.
Following that, as the young emperor stood there dumbfounded, Lin Yi abruptly pulled the young emperor into his arms and then rolled on the spot.
Together with the young emperor, both of them ended up on the ground.
Just as the young emperor was about to kick him away, Lin Yi’s somewhat anxious voice rang out:
“Not good, there’s an assassin, quickly call those in white!”
The young emperor, ready to kick, paused upon hearing Lin Yi’s anxious voice.
At the same time, he hadn’t expected that Lin Yi assumed an assassin had come, and had subconsciously chosen to save him.
For a moment, the young emperor felt surprisingly moved.
The kick that was about to be delivered was stealthily retracted.
He quickly spoke to Lin Yi, who was trying to continue rolling on the ground with him:
“Alright, it’s my own people!”
As soon as those words came out, Lin Yi, who was ready to exert more force, was stunned, and his subconscious movements halted as he swiftly looked back. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Indeed, he saw a woman in white standing at the spot where he had been.
And this woman, Lin Yi recognized, was indeed the young emperor’s subordinate who had been secretly hiding on the rooftop.
With this, he finally heaved a long sigh of relief.
He had sensed the sudden ill wind behind him and thought that Chen Baicheng had reacted and come to kill to silence him.
Who would have guessed that in this Imperial Study Room, the one to make a move on him would be the young emperor’s subordinate?
The young emperor, who had been listening to Lin Yi’s thoughts and was squished beneath him, also understood why Lin Yi had taken such an action.
This couldn’t help but make them chuckle.
At the same time, he prepared to push himself up to sit.
After all, being held by this rogue was quite uncomfortable for him.
However, just as the young emperor started to support himself with his hands on the ground, raising his head to sit up, Lin Yi, who had just turned his head to check, suddenly turned back again, his face showing an awkward and embarrassed expression.
What no one expected was that, as the young emperor’s face was very close to Lin Yi’s head due to the attempt to stand up, their faces fortuitously smacked together as Lin Yi turned back.
It was an impeccable fit.
For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to freeze on the spot, with both of them wide-eyed in disbelief, confronting each other.
Just as the young emperor felt something trying to get into his mouth, he snapped out of it.
Immediately, he pushed Lin Yi away with a hand.
And as they parted, a fine thread of saliva appeared in front of them.
At this, the young emperor’s face flushed crimson.
