Hua Ruge thought for a bit. She felt that the old emperor's actions were abnormal from the moment she came in. It seemed that as long as she said that she had it, the two would shamelessly ask for it.
Then would she give it or not?
No way, that's the emperor.
Give it to me, she wasn't willing to give it to me.
Hua Shengxiong's move was really ruthless.
Hua Ruge secretly clenched his teeth, laughed and said: "It is indeed with me, but after hearing that there is a curse, it has yet to drip blood for it to recognize its owner."
She would frighten them first.
The old emperor must be afraid of death.
"That thing's curse is that whoever touches it will die. It has nothing to do with recognizing someone as its owner. Then how can you be fine if you touch it?" Hua Shengxiong asked.
It was all taught to him by the Mr Lee, and now that Hua Ruge was too confident, he was too steady in his business, if he could try to disrupt her rhythm, he could very well quickly defeat her.
Therefore, Hua Shengxiong started to look into it. In the end, he found the experience of when Hua Ruge acquired a tool from the imperial treasury.
That person immediately went to investigate. The person in charge of the treasury said that aside from taking the pill furnace, there was also the cursed talisman.
Everyone had also heard about the power of that rune. It was just that no one dared to touch it after the curse was killed.
However, if he could break this curse and place it in the hands of the Emperor, not only would he be able to make the Emperor happy, he could also ruthlessly trap Hua Ruge in his place.
At this moment, Hua Shengxiong's expression clearly changed when he saw Hua Ruge.
After so many exchanges, he finally had the upper hand.
"Duke of Hua wants me dead?" Hua Ruge looked at him and asked, "Looks like you don't put the Emperor's mediation in your eyes."
"Don't talk nonsense here." Hua Shengxiong explained, then said to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, this brat has always had a glib tongue. You must not listen to his side of the story."
"No need to worry too much, my beloved. This child is straight with her words. I can tell that she isn't unhappy." The Emperor tried to smooth things over.
Hua Ruge clenched his teeth.
Old fox.
She was clearly angry, but he just ignored her and gave her the image of being able to see the bigger picture. He made her feel embarrassed even if she didn't hand over her things.
"I heard from the dean that anyone who comes into contact with it will die on the spot. However, I am an exception." Hua Ruge said.
The meaning was very clear. If you were injured, no one would be responsible for you except yourselves.
"I want to know how you managed to escape this calamity." Hua Shengxiong asked again.
Hua Ruge shrugged his shoulders and said: "I'm not sure about that. I'm the only one who's fine."
She bit the word 'only me'.
"This thing is really a dangerous object. It's useless for you to stay by his side, so you might as well offer it to the Emperor. The Emperor has the blessing of the Heavens, so nothing will happen to you." Hua Shengxiong said.
He did not believe that Hua Ruge would still dare to reject the Emperor.
The emperor looked at Hua Ruge with a smile, waiting for her to get onto the right path.
Now even a fool could tell that he wanted it.
Thinking about how he had sealed his opponent's strength during the battle, that would be the best outcome he could do.
"Hua Shengxiong, what kind of peace are you in?" Hua Ruge's eyes turned, and then he pointed at Hua Shengxiong's nose and said, "This thing is extremely evil, and it hasn't been fully studied yet, but you want to give it to the emperor. Are you responsible for what happens to the emperor?"
The Emperor was silent for a moment.
"The Emperor's brilliance is related to the fate of the entire country. Now that you're putting the Emperor in danger, tell me, what are you thinking?" The more Hua Ruge spoke, the louder his voice became.
Hua Shengxiong's face turned ugly, then said: "Hua Ruge, don't invert black and white, let the Emperor decide."
"Of course it's for the emperor to decide. Could it be that you didn't even think about asking for the emperor's opinion before?" Hua Ruge found a loophole in her words and continued to attack.
"You ?"
"You what? Don't think that just because you have the army of the direct descendants that you can command, the emperor is still here." Hua Ruge began to speak with a glib tongue again, hoping that the emperor would turn his attention back to Hua Shengxiong, as this would be easy to do.
Although there was a limit to the talisman as one's strength increased, it was still an extremely powerful cheating device that could save the situation at a critical moment. She really did not want to hand it over.
"I love you." Just as Hua Shengxiong was about to speak again, the Emperor grumbled out two words.
Hua Shengxiong looked straight into the heart, and did not dare to speak anymore.
However, this was not the state that Hua Ruge wanted to see, because he saw that the emperor was not infuriated by him, and was still acting very rational.
"No matter how big of a misunderstanding it is, it is still a misunderstanding. All of you, don't be so tit for tat with each other." The emperor said, then turned his head to look at Hua Ruge.
Hua Ruge was forced to look into his eyes that were shining brightly.
My heart is not good.
"To be honest, I'm not afraid of you making fun of me. It's me who wants to get that talisman." The Emperor said to Hua Ruge with a smile.
From his point of view, Hua Ruge had that talisman for so long that it had not been devoured, he must have broken the curse, and it was the perfect timing to take it now.
In the beginning, he didn't want to say it out loud. After all, it was too dishonorable.
Seeing how intense Hua Ruge's attitude towards Hua Shengxiong was, she decided to throw away her pride.
In any case, the people under the royal family's rule didn't care about whether or not they managed to achieve their goals. They didn't care about whether or not their skin was thick or not.
He felt that Hua Ruge was a little slow in the head, so he could only say it directly.
"Your majesty, it's not that this commoner doesn't want to give it to you, but I don't have the use for it right now. This commoner is afraid that I'll hurt your precious body." Hua Ruge was serious, pained to death, and had an appearance of a loyal official.
This was her last struggle. If the Emperor was even more thick-skinned, she really didn't know what to do.
Indeed, at the next moment, the emperor's face darkened, "With the blessing of Heaven, how can I not control such a small Soul-Sealing Talisman? I see that you don't want to give it to me by trying to shove me around."
Seeing the emperor's anger, Hua Shengxiong was secretly pleased.
He still remembered the look on Hua Ruge's face when she made him suffer a loss in his Hall of Sages.
She could reject him without any hesitation, but if she were to face the Emperor, she wouldn't dare to rebel.
Hua Ruge's heart was set ablaze.
These people were really shameless. First, they tricked him in, made him relax his vigilance, and then began asking for treasures. Now, they were actually using brute force to suppress them and snatch them!
Did he really think that she was a vegetarian?
"Did you hear it clearly this time? "It's the emperor's request. If you don't give it to him now, it'll be a crime of decapitation." Hua Shengxiong had a smile on his face, as if he wanted to eat Hua Ruge whole.
