Chapter 1647 Si Shang Gong

Shi Xuanji left the imperial study and walked all the way to her own bedroom.

"Sure enough, Shengshu Longchang didn't dare to select concubines to enter the palace. Otherwise, a group of beautiful women entered the palace, but he didn't use any of them. Wouldn't it be obvious to others that he had health problems?"

"It is estimated that it will not take long before he will announce to the world that he will not select concubines?"

"That would be the best. By then, I will be almost ready and can start to take power from him step by step."

"Shengshu Longchang, don't you want to be the emperor and like to hold power?"

"Then I will let you watch yourself lose the things you care about most step by step, and then die in torture."

"The pain of my Shi family back then will be found in you!"

Shi Xuanji had a blank expression on her face, and the coldness emanating from her body made the palace maids and eunuchs serving around her shudder.

Everyone was cautious, wondering what had happened to make the queen unhappy?

After returning to the Queen's bedroom, Shi Xuanji dismissed her attendants and sat alone in the room in deep thought.

She held the seal in her right hand, but did not use her magic power to activate it, and her expression was full of hesitation.

"Should I contact my master?" Shi Xuanji murmured to herself.

Ever since she started pretending to be the Crown Princess, well... now she is the Queen.

Since she pretended to be the Queen, she would think of what happened in the room on the day she killed the Queen from time to time.

The figure of the man who helped her twice, why can't be shaken off from her mind.

Shi Xuanji has been hesitating whether to tell her master, the Prophet Saint Emperor, about that person's existence?

Judging from that person's attitude, it is obvious that he is an enemy rather than a friend to the Prophet Saint Emperor.

As a disciple, she should stand firmly on the side of her master and quickly tell the Prophet Saint Emperor about that person's existence.

But she gave up at the last moment after trying to contact the Prophet Saint Emperor several times.

It was really that person's words that successfully aroused her suspicion and made her suddenly remember some past events that she had deliberately ignored.

Since becoming his disciple, in fact, in the details of many things, it can be seen that the purpose of the Prophet Saint Emperor is not simple.

It's just that Shi Xuanji trusted the Prophet Saint Emperor too much before, so she subconsciously ignored those problematic details.

Or it should be said that she didn't want to believe that her master had problems from the bottom of her heart, so she instinctively didn't want to pay attention to those details.

But this problematic trust is too fragile. Once it is torn open by someone, it can never be healed.

The past scenes with the Prophet Saint Emperor!

The words that the Prophet Saint Emperor once said!

And some inadvertent changes in the Prophet Saint Emperor's expression!

All of this, all showed Shi Xuanji that her master did have a big problem.

"Hey, Master, did you accept me as your disciple for the sake of the Yuhua Immortal Vein?"

"Do you really want to forcibly remove the Yuhua Immortal Vein from me one day in the future?"

"Do you know that if you do that, your disciple will die?"

Shi Xuanji sighed deeply, put down the seal in her hand again, and finally did not choose to contact the Prophet Saint Emperor.

She didn't know where the person that day came from?

But since the Prophet Saint Emperor had a problem, this person could be used to contain the Prophet Saint Emperor.

If the Prophet Saint Emperor really took action one day, perhaps the existence of this person would be the key to his survival.

"Master has always wanted me to completely control the Yuhua Immortal Vein. Obviously, even if he really takes action against me, he has to wait until I control the immortal vein."

"So this matter is not urgent. There is plenty of time to find a way to deal with it in the future."

"Now the most important thing for me is still to deal with the Holy Tree Longchang!"

Shi Xuanji thought about it, and suddenly said loudly: "Come here!"

Squeak!

The door was opened, and a maid came in and saluted: "Empress, what do you want?"

"Where is Si Shanggong?"

"Reporting to the queen, Aunt Si is giving a lecture to the maids in the front hall."

"She is quite like a female official in charge of the seal."

Shi Xuanji snorted coldly: "Go, let Si Shanggong come to see me."

"Yes, queen!"

The maid took the order and turned around and went out immediately.

It didn't take long before a middle-aged woman in a female official's uniform walked into the bedroom with an expressionless face.

"Hello, Queen."

The middle-aged woman's etiquette was very strict, and people couldn't find any faults, but the contempt hidden deep in her eyes made it seem that she didn't take Shi Xuanji, the queen, to heart.

This woman is called Si Shanggong, the female official in charge of the seal in the queen's palace, and she has considerable power.

But she is not the queen's person, Shi Xuanji, but was sent by Emperor Shengshu Longchang.

According to Shengshu Longchang, the purpose of sending Si Shanggong here is to protect the queen's safety.

Because he had just ascended the throne, there were still many people in the court and the public who opposed him, and it was very likely that someone would break into the palace to assassinate him.

But in Shi Xuanji's opinion, the real role of Si Shanggong should be surveillance.

It was obvious that Shengshu Longchang did not trust himself as the queen, and Shi Xuanji did not find it strange.

Because in the past in the prince's mansion, the prince and the princess had their own thoughts and did not trust each other.

It was just that the interests of the two were the same at that time, that is, to let Shengshu Longchang ascend the throne as emperor, so Shengshu Longchang's suspicion was not too obvious.

But now it is different. Shengshu Longchang has ascended the throne and is the one who holds the power of the Shengshu Immortal Kingdom.

Then his interests and the queen's are not as consistent as before, and some of the trust maintained on the surface will naturally be torn off.

But Shi Xuanji doesn't like to be monitored by someone at any time.

She looked at Si Shanggong, who did not get up after the ceremony, and suddenly waved her hand to close the door, and then the whole room was lit up with a faint fluorescent light.

Si Shanggong frowned slightly: "What does the queen mean? Why does she want to lock up the bedroom?"

"Imprisoning the bedroom is naturally because I don't want you to have a chance to escape."

Shi Xuanji said calmly.

She had no intention of playing coy, but directly pointed out the other party's identity: "Shengshu Longchang sent you here to monitor me?"

"What is the queen saying, why can't I understand?"

Si Shanggong looked puzzled: "Your Majesty sent me here to protect the queen's safety."

"After all, the queen is only at the immortal realm. If an assassin really breaks in, the queen will find it difficult to protect herself."

"Your Majesty does this because he cares about the queen."

"In addition... the queen should call the emperor, not the emperor's name."

"This is unreasonable. If the ministers in the court know about it, they will report that the queen is not a good woman."

"You are very protective of your emperor."

Shi Xuanji gently stroked the sleeves of her robe with her slender hands and sneered: "But from today on, you may have to change your master."
