Chapter 2581 The Yu Family Has Be Cannon Fodder


    "If you stop being a smart aleck, the Empress is still willing to support you. If you continue to think you''re smart, we can also rece you with someone else."


    Shadow said coldly, "You don''t really think you were chosen because of your talent, do you?"


    Ji Ziyin''s oval face flushed. She clenched her fists and swallowed her anger. "I just don''t want to see others look down on the reclusive family and the Empress'' dignity.


    "Since the Empress and Lord Shadow have other arrangements, I''ll obey you," she added obediently.


    Ji Ziyin was so perceptive that Shadow could not help but say, "You''re a member of the Ji family. You''re quite sensible."


    Ji Ziyin''s face was dark, but she knew what was good for her. "It''s in man''s nature to strive for better… I''m just leaving a path for myself."


    "Alright." Shadow knew very well what she was nning and did not care about her tricks. He actually did not take her seriously. He interrupted Ji Ziyin and conveyed the Empress'' words to her. "The Empress wants you toe over tomorrow. She''ll personally bring you into the Privy Council!"


    ***


    "You told her?"


    Shadow returned to the vi.


    Fragrant incense fluttered in the room, mixed with the smell of Chinese herbs. They all had calming effects.


    The people outside could never know that the Empress had actually been using Chinese Medicine methods to treat her chronic illness.


    As her personal guard, Shadow was already used to the smell. He knelt on one knee in front of the curtain and lowered his head. "Ji Ziyin will be here at nine o''clock sharp tomorrow morning."


    There was a long silence behind the draperies.


    Shadow did not move and just waited for her order.


    It took the Empress a long time to grasp the wood at the head of the bed. She gripped it tightly, and her voice gradually turned from calm to urgent.


    "Yu Qingliu is really trash!


    "I thought he could help me get rid of that dirty existence, but he lost the Yu family."


    Most importantly, the Yu family had paid such a painful price and did not even touch a single strand of Qiao Nian''s hair! What a joke.


    Shadowy on the ground obediently and became even more silent. "They will leave Country M today. Should we attack?"


    The Empress picked up the ''gift'' she had just received. It was a copy of theboratory record form with Ji Qing''s handwriting on it.


    She looked at Ji Qing''s handwriting as if she was still alive.


    She crumpled the paper into a ball but did not throw it away. She only said disdainfully, "Forget it. Ji Lingfeng called me. Save him some face."


    Shadow raised his head slightly and looked at the motionless curtains. He understood what the Empress meant. The Yu family had be cannon fodder.

    The night''s darkness dissipated, and the humidity in the air subsided. The first rays of dawn gradually emerged from the thick clouds, and brilliant sunlight shone down.


    The bloodstains outside the Pharmacy Association had been cleaned up, and a breeze blew on the refreshing road.


    The cars and pedestrians passing by did not realize what had happenedst night. Everything was so quiet.


    Early in the morning, Zhong Yiliu returned to the Pharmacy Association with Robert.


    He originally thought that the association would be smashed to pieces. Unexpectedly, the Pharmacy Association was exactly the same as when he left yesterday. Not a single ss tube was broken.


    In a daze, Zhong Yiliu bumped into Jian Jin, who had been on guard duty all night. He stopped her and asked, "Where''s Q?"


    Jian Jin had apanied Lu Zhi to the Pharmacy Association to treat his legs, so she knew he always called Qiao Nian Q. She pointed ahead. "Qiao is over there with her friend."
