Villain: In the beginning, the heroine's spiritual pupil is cut out with a knife

After hearing Shen Yuan's "emotional" speech, the empress knew clearly that he was talking nonsense, but she could do nothing about it.

"Okay, now that the Shen family is in trouble, as one of the eight major clans of the Northern Qi Dynasty, I naturally have to give the Shen family the right to deal with a traitor."

"But, Prime Minister, your treatment is indeed slightly inappropriate. You are the Prime Minister, but you gouge out people's pupils. If word of this spreads, it will not only affect your physical skills, but also affect our reputation in Bei Qi."

"If those foreigners knew about it, they would think that we people in Northern Qi are all cruel and murderous people."

Shen Yuan secretly clenched his fists, but then he loosened his hands and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable. It's because I didn't think carefully. Please punish me."

"Ai Qing is out of sight. Since it is your Shen family's family matter, I naturally can't say much. However, Ai Qing's move will indeed damage the image of Northern Qi. So, Ai Qing will bear the pain and give up her love with a thousand taels of gold. Then, how about I ask Shuangjiang and Xiaoxue, the Demon Suppressing Divisions, to help me appease the surrounding countries and clear up the misunderstanding for the Prime Minister?"

A thousand taels of gold is a trivial matter, but to hand over the Frost Mirror and the Little Snow Mirror... Your Majesty is going to make the Shen family pay some blood.

Everyone in the Immortal Dynasty of the Northern Qi Dynasty knows that the Northern Qi Dynasty does not tolerate monsters, so there is a Department of Demon Suppression. From the Department of Demon Suppression, there are twenty-four mirror departments named after the twenty-four solar terms. The empress controls ten mirrors, and the Chief Secretary of the Department of Demon Suppression is in charge. There are six mirrors, three mirrors are held by the Ministry of War, and the remaining five mirrors include one mirror at the imperial guards and two mirrors at the Wei Qi Longmen Guards.

The last two mirrors were in the hands of Prime Minister Shen Yuan.

Now, the empress wants to take back these two mirrors. Once she takes them back, it means that Shen Yuan's hand will not be able to reach the Demon Suppression Department at all.

The empress knew that Shen Yuan was secretly involved in many organizations in the court, but this Demon Suppression Department must not be allowed to infiltrate.

"My dear, I am also thinking about you. You don't want the surrounding countries to think that the Prime Minister of Northern Qi is a ruthless person who can gouge out people's eyes, right? You are the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, so you need to care about your image at all times."

The empress narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Shen Yuan with meaningful eyes.

Shen Yuan secretly cursed, no wonder Shen Yuan wanted to rebel in the original work. This empress, she really felt uncomfortable if she didn't feel disgusted.

Although I know that you are afraid of the prime minister's power and want to reduce my power, is this too hasty?

Zhu Yuanzhang also made preparations to kill Hu Weiyong.

Seeing Shen Yuan's silence, the empress showed an evil look on her face.

"What? Are you unwilling, Prime Minister, or are you reluctant to give up?"

Shen Yuan smiled.

"Since it is His Majesty's will, I dare you not to obey it?"

Hearing this, Wei Qi couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. Once Shen Yuan's Shuangsheng and Xiaoxue mirrors were taken back by His Majesty, Shen Yuan's control over the Demon Suppression Division would be reduced to zero.

You know, the Demon Suppression Division has gathered the most elite talents from the Northern Qi Immortal Dynasty!

From this name, you can guess that the Demon Suppressing Division naturally exists to suppress monsters, and will the people who suppress monsters be ordinary people?

The empress didn't expect that Shen Yuan would agree so readily. She thought she would have to fight with Shen Yuan for a while.

The civil and military officials in the court also began to whisper to each other. They did not expect Shen Yuan to agree so happily. Losing these two mirrors was like a tiger pulling out its teeth.

Especially those Shen Party officials were extremely anxious.

"What on earth is Prime Minister Shen doing? How can the two mirror departments of the Demon Suppression Department just talk to each other?"

"Yes, Master Shen has lost these two mirrors now, but Wei Qi still has two mirrors in his hand. If he fights with Wei Qi in the future, won't he have to be restricted in every way?"

Shen Yuan, on the other hand, closed his eyes peacefully. Under his long sleeves, he alternated his hands with his index finger swinging up and down quite regularly like a pendulum.

Calculating the time, it should be almost there...

The empress was overjoyed in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm on the outside. She was afraid that something might change if it was too late, so she hurriedly said.

"In that case, please ask Aiqing to return the mirror seals of Shuangsheng and Xiaohan as soon as possible..."

"Of course, your Majesty's words should be obeyed by all ministers."

But soon, a eunuch ran to the empress in a panic and whispered something to her.

"What did you say?!" Empress I lost her composure, "Qianrou's soul and body were injured?! How is this possible?!"

"I don't dare to lie! Early this morning, Princess Qianrou's face turned pale and her body had no warmth. I was anxious to inform the imperial doctors, but after examination, the imperial doctors said that Princess Qianrou's body was fine, but her soul was damaged!"

All the civil and military officials on stage looked at each other in confusion for a moment.

"Princess Qianrou's soul was injured?"

"Princess Qianrou has been staying in Luoxia Palace, how could her soul and body be damaged?"

"Who has been to Luoxia Palace?"

Speaking of who had been to Luoxia Palace, everyone, including the Empress, unanimously turned their attention to Shen Yuan!

Yesterday, he was the only one who had been to Luoxia Palace and met Princess Qianrou!

Could it be that……

"Shen Yuan! How dare you attack the little princess!" Wei Qi was the first to attack, "Yesterday you were the only one who went to Luoxia Palace to meet the little princess. It must have been you who attacked the little princess and caused her soul to be injured! Hello! So brave!!”

Shen Yuan calmly saluted the empress.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged. As we all know, the injury to the soul happens immediately. Not to mention that Wei Chen's Shen family has no martial arts that can hurt the soul. Even if there is, Wei Chen has no virtue or ability. He can do it yesterday. After meeting Princess Qianrou, why did the princess’ soul get hurt just today?”

All the civil and military officials nodded. Shen Yuan was right. Unlike the physical body, the soul body is a pure soul body. Therefore, once the soul body is injured, it will be injured when it is attacked. Unlike the physical body, some There will be dark energy in the skill, and there will be no big reaction when you are hit. Once the dark energy breaks out, you will be injured.

Furthermore, Shen Yuan did not lie. Shen Yuan's officials in the Northern Qi Dynasty of the Shen family are also very familiar with it. Their Thousand Phantom Spirit Pupils only have the ability to control spirits and heal spirits, and the family does not have any skills that can inflict damage to the soul. Law.

"It's true that Mr. Wei is so eager to throw dirty water, Wei Chen thinks he has ulterior motives."

"That's nonsense! I am loyal to His Majesty and can learn from the sun and the moon!"

The empress gritted her teeth. Although she was puzzled as to why her sister's soul was suddenly injured, the most important thing now was to heal her sister's soul first.

If my sister's soul is incomplete, her life may be in danger!

Princess Qianrou is the person the Empress cares about most at the moment, yes, she cares about the most at the moment, because later on when she fell in love with the protagonist, the person she cared about the most became Qin Yang.

But at least now, before she was with Qin Yang, what she cared about most was the little girl.

The old eunuch also said anxiously: "Your Majesty, please hurry up and let someone from Luo who knows how to heal spirits come to treat Princess Qianrou!"

Healing the soul and spirit body is called healing the spirit for short, but who has this ability now?

Thousands of phantom spiritual pupils!

After Qian Huan Ling Pu breaks through the eighth level, he will have the ability to heal the soul!

The empress also looked eagerly at Shen Yuan below the stage.

"Prime Minister, if I remember correctly, Aiqing's Thousand Illusion Spirit Pupils seem to have reached the seventh level?"

"Your Majesty, I am a humble minister, but at the end of the day, Tong Li has just broken through to the ninth level."

Hearing this, all the civil and military officials, including Wei Qi, had a look of excitement on their faces.

This guy, Qian Huan Ling Pu has already cultivated to the ninth level? ! You must know that he himself still has a half-step supreme cultivation level!

Fortunately, he was lame, otherwise his combat power would have been too great, even approaching that of the Empress!

Ninth level realm!

The empress seemed to see hope.

"I heard that after you reach the eighth level of Qianhuan Spirit Pupil, you can perform the method of healing spirits. Ai Qing, are you willing to do your best for Princess Qianrou?"

Shen Yuan lowered his head and cupped his hands into fists.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me that I have important matters to attend to. I need to go back early. I may not have time to go to Luoxia Palace..."

After saying this, Shen Yuan raised his head and stared directly at the empress with gloomy and cold eyes.
