Ren Tianye's expression was exceptionally cold and stern.
It was an undisguised harshness.
Tianye, what... what is wrong with you?
Although Xiao Mingzhao was weak, her eyes had never left Ren Tianye, and she instantly noticed his abnormal behavior, prompting her to ask.
Ren Tianye stared straight into Xiao Mingzhao's eyes and, before she could react, blurted out a phrase.
Royal Jade Liquor!
Xiao Mingzhao froze. What?
Odd changes, even doesn't!
Xiao Mingzhao was full of question marks.
Which school has the best excavator training?
Xiao Mingzhao was even more bewildered. Tianye, what on earth are you talking about?
Ren Tianye was also stunned.
Wait, Xiao Mingzhao didn't know these?
He had just thrown those out out of nowhere, entirely catching her off guard. If things were as he imagined, she should have immediately replied with, One hundred and eighty a cup!
But Xiao Mingzhao did not reply.
She didn't respond to the subsequent tests either.
Could it be that her era was earlier? Was she from the time when the movie A Chinese Odyssey was just released?
Thinking this, Ren Tianye immediately unleashed his ultimate move.
Something that anyone who had seen A Chinese Odyssey could absolutely not be ignorant of.
He said, Fighting for power with Empress Ma!
A look of utter confusion appeared on Xiao Mingzhao's face. Tianye, what Empress Ma? There is no Empress surnamed Ma in our dynasty. Did you remember the surname wrong?
Still incorrect?
Then one more.
Ren Tianye said, Brawling with Li Shimin!
At this, Xiao Mingzhao's brows furrowed deeply, her head spinning as she suppressed her weakness and said, Tianye, what... what nonsense are you saying?
I don't understand a single word of it.
Is... is this some secret code you want to establish between us? My mind is lacking energy right now, so I couldn't memorize it all at once. Please write it down on paper for me, I...
I will memorize it!
Xiao Mingzhao spoke with absolute sincerity, and Ren Tianye observed her intently.
Xiao Mingzhao did not look like she was faking it!
She truly looked like she knew nothing at all.
Unless Xiao Mingzhao is an extremely skilled woman at hiding her true self, she is definitely not faking! Ren Tianye thought to himself.
But based on his understanding of Xiao Mingzhao, she was an incredibly love-struck female emperor. Let alone mastering the art of concealing such things, it was debatable whether she even possessed the capability to do so.
So...
Xiao Mingzhao was not like him?
Then where did Xiao Mingzhao learn about A Chinese Odyssey?
As he pondered this, a chaotic noise erupted outside the room. It seemed that the unconscious Pei Jingzhi had woken up, which made Ren Tianye's already irritated mood verge on explosive.
He glared fiercely at Xiao Mingzhao.
Like a man-eating tiger.
His voice was icy, carrying an unquestionable tone like the clash of metal. How do you know the story of A Chinese Odyssey?
Explain it to me clearly, one by one!
Not a single bit, not a single word, is to be left out!
The astonishment on Xiao Mingzhao's face turned into shock.
Ever since she developed the thought of breaking up amicably with Tuoba Xiangtai at the Imperial Chen Estate, she had begun to sketch an image of Ren Tianye in her heart. Today was their first meeting, and he was exactly as she had imagined.
She also felt that Ren Tianye was still the same as before.
Willing to shoulder the responsibility of the world just to gain her attention; willing to risk everything for her.
Even when she was just speaking with him, she felt that their hearts were drawn very close.
But now...
Ren Tianye's demeanor suddenly changed.
He came on like a violent storm, his posture fierce and ruthless, like a blade pressed against her neck. It made Xiao Mingzhao feel that the Ren Tianye before her seemed different from her imagination.
However, Xiao Mingzhao quickly understood.
Tianye must think that the story of A Chinese Odyssey is related to Tuoba Xiangtai. He... he is jealous of Xiangtai.
Alas, Tianye is still so petty.
Xiao Mingzhao sighed softly.
She was immensely satisfied with Ren Tianye in a thousand ways, but it was precisely because of his pettiness that she was only willing to give him a chance, rather than fully agree to him.
However, having figured this out, she still answered, Tianye, the story of A Chinese Odyssey was told to me by my mother. She said there was a woman named Fairy Zixia...
Ren Tianye listened quietly, comparing it with the movie A Chinese Odyssey in his mind. The violent storm surging in his heart reached its peak and then gradually subsided.
Now, he was certain!
The source was the Prostitute Empress!
No wonder the Prostitute Empress, as a courtesan whose jade arms were pillowed by ten thousand men, was able to easily infatuate Xiao Jingyuan. It turned out that the Prostitute Empress came from the same homeland as him!
But soon...
Ren Tianye felt something was amiss again.
Since she came from the same homeland as him, how did she end up wandering the red-light districts as a prostitute?
Although she later defied fate and became the Empress of Great Yu.
Wasn't her starting point a bit too low?
What?
Are modern transmigrators doing this miserably nowadays?
Ren Tianye couldn't figure it out. It seemed he would have to look for information on the Prostitute Empress and study it in detail.
Just as he made up his mind, Pei Jingzhi's voice rang out outside the doors of the Sijun Hall.
Pei Jingzhi seemed to be shouting like a madman.
Your Majesty, how can such an imperial decree be issued?
Once this decree is issued, it will surely bring disaster to the country and its people. This old minister... this old minister begs you, retract the decree!
This rolling wave of sound crashed directly onto Xiao Mingzhao's head.
It instantly obliterated her somewhat decent mood.
She had barely managed to wake up, and this anger nearly made her pass out again.
Had it not been for Pei Jingzhi's unyielding loyalty to Great Yu and his willingness to risk his life to save her when she was imprisoned in the Imperial Chen Estate, Xiao Mingzhao would truly want to banish him back to the lands of Great Yu.
At this moment, she could only suppress her anger and say, I am merely doing some minor things, and you want to stop me again?
You want to stop this, and you want to stop that.
What, in your eyes, am I just an emperor whose head is full of romance and knows absolutely nothing about the general trends of the world?
This imperial decree was spoken by me to Ren Tianye.
No one is allowed to stop it, otherwise, do not blame me for turning ruthless!
Having confirmed the legality of the imperial decree, Xiao Mingzhao's breath became erratic. Looking as though she was about to faint again, she still forced herself to take out a small pouch and hand it to Ren Tianye.
Tianye, this is my gift to you. I hope that one day, you will not disappoint my expectations and become the unrivaled hero who saves me...
Before she could finish her sentence, her head tilted, and she fell asleep.
Ren Tianye stepped forward to check and confirmed that she had fainted.
However, this time Ren Tianye would be more cautious. It would be best to send a trusted imperial physician to watch over her day and night. If a suitable trusted physician couldn't be found, he would deploy soldiers to guard her.
From now on, whether Xiao Mingzhao could wake up or not would be up to him!
