"Anyone who deceives the emperor and fishes in troubled waters will be killed without mercy."
Xuandu read out the last sentence and asked, "Isn't this what you meant?"
Xiao Chengyi shrugged: "We have to find a way to send you to His Majesty openly and without making anyone suspicious, so posting a list is the best choice."
Xuandu said: "What I said is shoot to death without mercy."
Xiao Chengyi glanced at him and said casually: "Isn't this just to prevent those charlatans from entering the palace to steal your job?"
The corners of Xuandu's lips twitched and he was speechless for a moment.
There are many quacks and sorcerers among the people who think that they are omnipotent after learning some Feng Shui mystical skills. Now that Your Majesty has posted a list of experts looking for experts to exorcise evil spirits, there is no guarantee that there will be no daring people who want to try it.
I have to say that these four words "shoot to kill without mercy" can be said to have stopped those people's thoughts. After all, no one dares to gamble with their own lives.
To say that Xiao Chengyi was also thoughtful, these four words really saved him a lot of trouble.
Xuandu put down the things and asked again: "What method did you use to get His Majesty to be possessed by the evil spirit?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "The heart-intoxicating flower is just a poison that can cause hallucinations."
Xuandu: "..."
Well, he had to admire Xiao Chengyi. His Majesty was heavily guarded after being assassinated, but Xiao Chengyi was still able to poison His Majesty without anyone noticing, creating the illusion that he was possessed by evil spirits.
The key is that Xiao Chengyi was not here when His Majesty was possessed by evil spirits.
This man really has a lot of potential.
In his previous life, he didn't have the opportunity to see Xiao Chengyi's abilities, but this life opened his eyes.
Xuan Du knew that Xiao Chengyi had arranged everything and there was nothing he needed to worry about, so he put away the list and stood up and said, "Then shall I enter the palace now?"
"Not urgent."
Xiao Chengyi picked up a cup of tea and took two sips and said: "You can go again tomorrow, and tonight let your majesty taste the feeling of being haunted by evil spirits, so that he will feel that he is really possessed by evil spirits."
Xuan Du nodded without any objection. He accidentally saw something hidden in Xiao Chengyi's arms and asked curiously: "What is that in your arms?"
Xiao Chengyi took out the painting from his arms and said with a smile: "This, this is a gift given to me by Yan Yan."
He touched the painting, his eyes full of tenderness.
Xuandu simply didn't look at it and asked him: "Why are you willing to come back?"
Xiao Chengyi sighed melancholy: "Do you think I want to come back?"
Today was his birthday. He didn't want to deal with anything. He just wanted to spend the day with Yan Yan, but he was kicked out.
If he hadn't known that he was the only one in that girl's heart, he would have doubted whether he had bored her?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a sweet voice coming from behind: "Brother Yi."
Xiao Chengyi looked back and saw Yan Yan coming over with a food box, but there was some flour on her face, which made her look a little funny.
He hurriedly stood up and went over to meet her, looked at her discolored face and asked, "How did you get that on your face?"
As she spoke, she reached out considerately and wiped the flour off her face.
Mu Yun'an was in such a hurry that she didn't notice that her face was dirty. She chuckled and pulled Xiao Chengyi to sit down in front of the stone table and said, "I'm making longevity noodles for Brother Yi, please try it quickly."
As he spoke, he opened the food box and took out a bowl of steaming noodles.
