Chapter 1033: Chapter 235: General Protectorate_2

Pei Qin froze at the sound, her shoulders drooping. Fine! They’re right, everyone in the Royal Family is clever, just like a honeycomb briquette, and she’s just a tasteless radish that doesn’t stand a chance in comparison!

"Emperor! Actually, that divine weapon, it’s called ’One Finger Gone’! It’s accurate, whoever it points at is gone! Of course, except when it’s not accurate! It’s precisely because I was accurate that the Leader of the Rebellious Army is gone!" She gestured with her hands as she spoke.

Emperor Chu Wen glanced at her sideways, "What sort of divine item is that? Bring it here for us to see!" Talking nonsense again!

Pei Qin reached towards her waist, "Oh! Weapons are not allowed in the palace, I left it outside with my subordinates."

Emperor Chu Wen was frustrated, "Go and bring it in!"

"Yes, Emperor! I’ll go right away!" Pei Qin obediently stood up to take her leave.

"Come back! Accompany us for a meal first!" Emperor Chu Wen called her back, quick to escape.

Hearing it was time to eat, Pei Qin turned back, "What are we eating tonight?"

Seeing her eyes light up, Emperor Chu Wen looked at Shi Rui.

Shi Rui smiled, retreating to arrange the meal.

The array of light, nourishing dishes was mouthwatering just to look at.

Familiarity breeds fondness; Pei Qin washed her hands, sat down, and began eating with Emperor Chu Wen.

Emperor Chu Wen didn’t eat much, occasionally seeming lost in thought.

Pei Qin knew her place well, keeping her mouth shut and just focusing on her own meal. Speaking too much or too closely with the emperor could be as good as courting death, although she was nearly there now, but she still wanted to struggle till the last breath, hoping to delay her demise a bit longer.

As a result, Pei Qin ended up overeating.

"I can’t eat any more, and you dare to stuff yourself!?" Emperor Chu Wen frowned when he saw her burp.

Pei Qin blinked, "Then... I won’t eat the next meal?"

"No more!" Emperor Chu Wen glared at her.

Pei Qin cursed internally, it was you who allowed me to eat as I wished, and yet again it was you who forbade me, damn the ever-changing orders, no wonder you won’t last long!

"Are you cursing us in your heart?" Emperor Chu Wen asked.

"Not at all!" Pei Qin looked at him blankly.

Emperor Chu Wen snorted, "We thought so; you wouldn’t dare!"

Pei Qin grumbled quietly, cursing you anyway, what can you do about it! You can’t hear!

"Go fetch that ’One Finger Gone’!" Emperor Chu Wen waved her away.

Pei Qin complied and went out to ask Lu Hai to retrieve her pistol from Xiao Yong.

When Xiao Yong saw Lu Hai, he opened his mouth but didn’t ask much; he handed over the phone, "Please ensure Sister Qin’s safety at all times!" Now she was confined in the palace, unable even to see her father, unable to help if something happened.

Lu Hai nodded and took the pistol back to the palace.

Pei Qin resumed singing the tune with Emperor Chu Wen, "Ah~ Fifth Ring, you have one more ring than the Fourth..."

Lu Hai waited outside for a long time before Shi Su came out and took the item inside. Historically the most whimsical, the Emperor betting all on her, wasn’t he afraid of losing everything?

"How does this thing work?" Emperor Chu Wen held it in his hand, looking it over and over.

Pei Qin took it, loaded the chamber, and pulled off the safety, aiming in a circle and then at Shi Su, "Just pull the trigger, and with a bang, Shi Su will be gone just like that!"

Shi Su turned pale, his body stiffening, "General! Don’t scare your servant! I’m faint-hearted!" He had seen how the leader of the Pei Family Army had died, a bullet hole directly through.

Pei Qin rolled her eyes and pulled back her hand.

Emperor Chu Wen hadn’t seen it before; he had only seen mortars fired and hand grenades explode, he signaled to Shi Rui.

Shi Rui placed a drawing gourd at a distance for Pei Qin to shoot.

Knowing they would make her demonstrate, Pei Qin fitted the pistol with a faulty silencer, aimed at the gourd, and with a bang, the gourd shattered and the bullet continued to fly, embedding deeply into the door.

Shi Su gasped, kneeled down on the ground, "If the General had aimed at your servant just now, this little life of mine would be gone!"

"Bring it here again for us to look!" Emperor Chu Wen urgently reached out.

Pei Qin handed it to him.

Having realized the divine power of this little hidden weapon, Emperor Chu Wen held it with a new sense of gravity and solemnity, "How many more of these hidden weapons are there?"

"Just three," Pei Qin replied, noticing him eye the two in front of him, and lowered her voice, "There’s one more I gave to Mo Heng." Since she had come up with this thing, she couldn’t tolerate seeing her man unprotected.

"Hmm! You do have a deep affection and loyalty towards him!" Emperor Chu Wen spoke indifferently, yet his gaze at Pei Qin was rather filled with veiled disapproval.
