I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 12 The Tyrant is Cuckolded
[Tsk tsk, I didn't realize that the tyrant has a sister complex. ]

Chu Liuzheng stole a glance at Xiao Jingfan's profile as he listened attentively to the ministers' discussion, and continued to read the next piece of gossip.

[Xie Jieyu raised a Persian cat. The cat ran out and frightened the queen, so it was beaten to death by the palace servants of Changchun Palace. Xie Jieyu was so sad that her eyes were swollen from crying.]

[Alas, poor cat, if you are a cat again in your next life, don’t enter the palace. ]

[Shock! Wang Cairen's image as a fairy woman who doesn't care about worldly things has collapsed. She actually likes to get up in the middle of the night to secretly eat stinky tofu, making the bed smell like stinky socks. ]

[Hey~ I can smell the smell just by reading the words, okay? It makes me not sleepy anymore, next one, next one. ]

[Fuck! Xinpin...]

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother sent someone to announce the good news." Zhou Yuande walked quickly into the hall with a happy look on his face and bowed to Xiao Jingfan.

"Today, the Imperial Hospital routinely checked the pulses of the ladies in the harem and found that Concubine Xin is already one month pregnant. Your Majesty is very happy!"

"Your Majesty, I congratulate you." All the ministers knelt down and congratulated in unison.

Xiao Jingfan's brows relaxed, the corners of his lips curled up as he listened to Chu Liuzheng's thoughts.

[…She was diagnosed with pregnancy, but the child is not Shunguangdi's! ]

[Fuck! Fuck! The tyrant is being cuckolded! ! ]

The smile that had not yet appeared froze at the corner of his mouth. Xiao Jingfan took a deep breath, and with a "click", he broke the brush in his hand.

Everyone looked up in surprise.

——Your Majesty, are you too happy?

——But why does this face look so ferocious?
Xiao Jingfan's expression was more than just ferocious. If he went out on the street in this state, eleven out of ten children would be scared to tears.

He turned and glared at Chu Liuzheng, who was so surprised by the big melon that he forgot to grind the ink.

Overwhelmed by the surging murderous intent, Chu Liuzheng shuddered and came back to his senses from the shocking melon.

Suddenly meeting Xiao Jingfan's gaze that seemed to want to cut her into pieces, Chu Liuzheng's heart skipped a beat and all the hairs on her body stood up.

[Fuck! It's not like I cheated on the tyrant, why is the tyrant glaring at me? ]

Xiao Jingfan suppressed the urge to strangle Chu Liuzheng immediately and turned his eyes away.

Seeing this, Chu Liuzheng let out a sigh of relief.

【In ancient times, people valued having many children, and the royal family wanted to expand their family. Now the tyrant only has one princess, born to Consort Shu, who is just two years old. The other concubines have no children. You can imagine how much the tyrant longs for an heir.】

[It's a pity that the child in Xinpin's belly is the product of cuckoldry. I don't know if the tyrant will find out. ]

[If the tyrant cannot find out, will he have to raise the adulterer's child? ]

[Frog fun! Is this retribution in this life? ]

Chu Liuzheng had no intention of telling Xiao Jingfan the truth.

Not to mention that she didn't know how to explain how she knew the truth, being the first to stand out and show off in front of the emperor was not in line with her survival rules in the palace at all.

She has always been a persuasive person, concentrating on doing her own job, not trying to stand out or take the blame. She only hopes to live safely until she is 25 years old and leave the palace to reunite with her family.

She wanted to stay as far away from all the conspiracies and plots in the palace as possible; she didn't want to be involved in any of them!

Hearing the gloating in Chu Liuzheng's voice, Xiao Jingfan was really afraid that he would not be able to hold back and would draw his sword to chop this woman in half.

"Shut up for me..."

[Although I can't tell the tyrant the truth, I can find out who the adulterer is... Hmm? Is the tyrant talking to me? ]

Chu Liuzheng blinked and looked at Xiao Jingfan, whose face did not show any joy at all.

[Strange, the tyrant didn't know that he was cuckolded and would have to raise a child for his adulterer in the future, so why was he unhappy when he found out that Concubine Xin was pregnant? ]

Xiao Jingfan: “…” Thanks to you, I know it clearly!
[Could it be that the tyrant doesn't like Concubine Xin to give birth to his child? ]

[Tsk tsk, you bastard! If you didn’t like me, you shouldn’t have slept with me in the first place! ]

Xiao Jingfan couldn't stand it any longer: "...Shut up!"

Chu Liuzheng: “?”

【I didn’t say anything.】

【Could it be...】

Xiao Jingfan's eyelids jumped, thinking that Chu Liuzheng was about to guess the truth. He started thinking of backup plans in his mind, but he saw Chu Liuzheng turned his head and looked back, nodding slightly.

[As expected! Everyone feels that the tyrant's expression is not right. It's just a few words, the tyrant is so stingy! ]

Xiao Jingfan: "..."

You've been cuckolded, why don't you try to be magnanimous? ! !
"Your Majesty?" Zhou Yuande called cautiously. Is this a reward or not?
The ministers also looked at Xiao Jingfan in confusion.

His Majesty has few children, so he should be happy that the concubine is pregnant. Why doesn't he look happy?

Xiao Jingfan was not willing to let the ministers laugh at him, so he said in a normal tone: "Let's stop here for today's matter. Mr. Zhang, you should sort out what we discussed today and we will discuss it again at the court meeting tomorrow."

Grand Secretary Zhang bowed and said, "I accept your order."

After the ministers left, Xiao Jingfan's relatively calm expression suddenly turned gloomy, which made Zhou Yuande shudder.

——Your Majesty, you want to kill someone!

——Who has offended this evil god again?

"Let's go to Yungui Garden." Xiao Jingfan walked out, and Zhou Yuande hurriedly shouted, "Let's go to Yungui Garden!"

After taking two steps, Xiao Jingfan realized that Chu Liuzheng didn't follow him, so he turned around and glared at the woman who was standing there motionless.

Zhou Yuande was very good at reading people's expressions, and he immediately urged: "Why are you still standing there? Come with me."

Chu Liuzheng: “…”

She is just a tea server. Why bring her along when visiting a pregnant woman?

The tyrant can't be so inhumane as to let her work overtime at Yunguiyuan, right?
Cuiyun was quite proactive, but Emperor Shunguang looked down on her and gave her a cold look, freezing the little warrior where she was.

Facing Cuiyun's resentful and envious gaze, Chu Liuzheng really wanted to say, how about we switch?
Who wants to follow along when they can be lazy? !
Halfway through, Chu Liuzheng remembered the big melon he had just eaten halfway, and reopened the system.

[Come, let me see the name of this brave man who dares to cuckold the tyrant. ]

【Wow! The city is fun! 】

[The adulterer turned out to be Li Zhongxin, the eunuch in charge of Xinpin's palace. He was a fake eunuch who used tricks to avoid castration and was assigned to Xinpin's Yunguiyuan.]

It turned out to be a forbidden love between a eunuch and a palace concubine!

Chu Liuzheng scrolled down excitedly, his eyes shining like 800-watt light bulbs.

[No wonder these two people can be together. It turns out that Xinpin and Li Zhongxin knew each other before entering the palace, and they were a couple. If Xinpin had not been selected to enter the palace, she would have married Li Zhongxin long ago. ]

[Li Zhongxin is infatuated with Xinpin and chases her into the palace for love. Xinpin is moved to tears, but she refuses to admit her feelings due to her status. The two spend every day together, and finally Li Zhongxin uses his love to influence Xinpin. The two finally become a couple and make love in Yungui Garden. They are inseparable all day long.]

[Tsk, tsk, this is actually a bloody love story of giving up everything for love. These two people are willing to sacrifice their own lives, but have they never thought about what will happen to their families after they are discovered? ]

[A concubine in a world where imperial power is supreme is having an affair with a man outside her family. Haha, what sins did these two families commit in their previous lives to deserve these two unlucky people who dragged their entire clans under the guillotine.]

Xiao Jingfan, who had heard the whole story, said: "..."

Very good, there is no need to investigate the adulterer, just arrest him directly!
