Chapter 305 Spring Banquet
Inside the Yangxin Palace, Chu Lu sat alone, replaying Huo Qi's magical report over and over in his mind.
"Qin Su," he said in his heart, "I need a more detailed analysis. What exactly is that woman's ability? What is the principle? How does it work specifically? If she curses someone, they will die. How can we prevent this?"
"If you're asking how to drive inanimate objects, then I can't explain the principle. I can only say that the heroine's aura is unreasonable." Qin Su said, "If you want to ask about Si Ren's original ability, although I have already explained it before, I can explain it in more detail."
"That's fine." Chu Lu had no other choice but to nod.
"I have talked about the origin of Si Ren's ability before. The purpose is to fill the loophole of the female frequency feature that scolding people is useless. Because of this, the essence of Si Ren's ability is closely related to it. She doesn't scold anyone and they will die." Qin Su explained, "but whoever she scolds will be madly angry, very angry, and finally die of anger."
A gleam of light flashed in Chu Lu's eyes, and he immediately grasped the key point: "In other words, as long as I'm not angry, she can't do anything to me?"
"That's the theory," Qin Su affirmed, "but it's extremely difficult to execute. Using those ridiculous theories that confuse right and wrong to anger the target is part of her personality. As long as you are a sane man, you will inevitably get angry the moment you understand the undisguised malice and absurd logic in her words."
"Unless..." Qin Su paused.
"Unless what?"
"Unless the target is a woman, and she completely agrees with her words from the root of her thoughts. In that case, when she hears those words, she will not be angry, but will think they are wise words and agree with them. In this way, her ability will be destroyed."
After listening to this, Chu Lu fell silent.
After a while, he sneered in his heart and said to himself, "In this era, where can I find someone whose brain was kicked by a donkey and happened to be kicked into a shape like hers? Even if I really find someone like that, how can I expect such a person to help me?"
This is simply a dead end.
Just as Chu Lu fell into deep thought, racking his brain for a solution, a sound of footsteps was heard outside the hall.
An old eunuch bowed and walked in, saying softly, "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites has sent someone to ask if the arrangements for the Jichun Banquet are going as usual?"
"Ji Chun Banquet?" Chu Lu was stunned and pulled away from his thoughts, "What is that?"
The old eunuch quickly explained, "Your Majesty, this Spring Banquet is a grand banquet held by the emperor at the end of spring. It is to summarize the spring farming and to pray for a good summer harvest and reward the officials for their hard work. It is usually held after the field ceremony. Your Majesty will reward farm tools and good seeds at the banquet and arrange summer farming matters. This is a rule passed down by our ancestors."
Chu Lu and Qin Su's hearts suddenly moved.
Almost at the same time, the same thought came into their minds.
——She will definitely come.
Such a grand court banquet is undoubtedly the best stage for her next move.
At the same time, in the inn room, after dealing with Xiao Cui, Si Ren once again focused on the chat group.
Although Xiao Cui was successfully rescued and the problem of the oxygen bag was temporarily solved, the threat from Chang Hong still existed and she had to act as soon as possible.
She said to herself, "If we don't completely get rid of that pig-man emperor and the group leader before that bitch Changhong arrives in the capital, we'll be in trouble. We must act now."
After making up her mind, she immediately spoke in the chat group.
Si Ren: "Okay, the person has been rescued, and I should prepare for the next operation. Do you have any good suggestions?"
As soon as she said this, the group immediately became lively again.
But this time was similar to last time, the heroines couldn’t come up with any good strategies.
Finally, it was Su Wanqing who said, "Oh, I remember now. In a few days, there will be the Spring Banquet in the palace. This is a grand ceremony at the end of spring every year, and the emperor will definitely attend and entertain all the ministers. Since the Ji Tian ceremony was disrupted by the natives last time, let's do it at the Spring Banquet this time."
"Ji Chun Banquet?" Si Ren's eyes lit up.
Su Wanqing immediately briefly explained the origin and process of the Jichun Banquet.
After hearing this, Si Ren showed a satisfied smile on her face. She slapped her thigh and said, "Good! This is good!"
But the next moment, Si Ren frowned again and said, "However, it's easy to say, but how can I get in? The pig emperor has suffered twice, it shouldn't be easy for me to change clothes and sneak in again, right?"
At this time, Concubine Li jumped out and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Because it is a big banquet, the palace will be particularly short of manpower, and often temporarily transfer palace maids and eunuchs from other palaces to help.
We are in the palace, we can get two sets of palace maids' clothes, and then find an excuse to arrange you to do some chores outside the banquet. It is not difficult. There will be so many people and so many different people, who can find you?"
Concubine Zhuang immediately agreed, "That's right. There are so many guests at the banquet, and everyone's attention will be on His Majesty and the ministers. Who would pay attention to the two palace maids serving tea and water?"
Su Wanqing also advised: "Moreover, the Jichun Banquet is different from the Jietian Ceremony. The Jietian Ceremony is held in the wild, although it seems loose, it is actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside, which makes it easy to mobilize troops to encircle. The Jichun Banquet is held in the palace, and the space is limited, so the guards cannot be deployed on a large scale.
More importantly, all the people at the banquet are important officials of the imperial court, so they are cautious and don’t have to worry about being chased by soldiers like last time.”
After hearing this analysis, Si Ren's hesitation was completely dispelled.
She made the decision and said, "Okay! Let's do it! Those pig men always slander us women for only using shady means. This time, I will take the life of that pig man emperor in front of all the civil and military officials in the court!"
Her eyes flashed with a cruel light, ready to take action: "This time, I will let everyone see what a miserable end it will be if you offend our heroine!"
