The dog emperorâs appeal to Lord State Duke was his purported illness, expressing a desire for Qin Zhenzhen to enter the palace to treat him. The ulterior motive behind this request was apparent even to the most naive observer.
Lord State Duke, however, rejected him outright, stating, âAs long as the Emperor knows his place, he wonât meet a violent death.â Their intention was to let him pass away without suffering, provided he ceased causing trouble.
Nevertheless, the emperor resorted to threatening Lord State Duke, âThis is my last request. If you donât fulfill it, donât blame me for revealing the unsavory deeds youâve committed!â
Lord State Duke found this amusing and Questioned the emDerorâs intentions, to which the dog emperor explained, âI have documented your crimes in a small booklet and hidden it away. If I die, this booklet will be disseminated outside the palace.â
He believed he had an ultimate move, but Lord State Duke, unimpressed, regarded him as foolish. Writing a pamphlet held little significance in a place where not even a mosquito could escape. Moreover, even if the contents were revealed, it wouldnât affect their Public House.
In response, Lord State Duke stated coldly, âThe Emperor is indeed sick, and seriously sick!â
âStarting now, the Emperor will rest during his illness!â
The most effective way to handle a deranged puppet was to confine him.
Their plan was being accelerated once again.
The emperor, in his delirium, was given a tonic by the imperial physician, which included a special medication. This concoction induced excitement, leading to an energy-draining obsession with a beauty, ultimately accelerating his demise.
The Public House opted not to intervene actively but instead allowed the emperor to meet his end naturally.
However, a prior promise to the Empress Dowager compelled them to keep the Emperor alive until her passing.
The Empress Dowager, expressing her wish not to send away her grandson after having already sent away her son, received the Dukeâs reluctant agreement due to their sibling relationship.
Yet, the Empress Dowagerâs remaining days were numbered.
Qin Zhenzhen, upon hearing this, felt a deep sense of revulsion.
Thankfully, the Public House, if using them, wouldnât subject her to suffering in the palace.
âSo, if all goes according to plan, the dog emperor will meet his demise next month?â
Su Bin clenched his teeth. âHeâs fortunate.â
If possible, Su Bin desired to be the one to end the emperorâs life.
Even in his final moments, the emperor dared to harbor thoughts about Su Binâs wife. He deserved to be torn apart, piece by piece.
He warranted being manipulated and having a shortened life.
As time passed, Su Binâs initial anger had transformed into a seething resentment. There was something about his wife that made him lose control over his emotions.
The reason for Su Binâs intense anger became clear.
He had long been aware of the emperorâs repulsive behavior. Unable to possess Su Binâs wife, the emperor brought in numerous beauties resembling her from outside the palace, subjecting them to daily mistreatment and abuse. During these degrading acts, he even called out his wifeâs name, changing the names of those beauties to variations of âZhenzhen.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In the emperorâs mouth, she became âLittle Zhenzhen,â âFat Zhenzhen,â âBig Zhenzhen,â and more.
While the Dragon Phoenix Hall refrained from conveying such details to Su Bin, the Public House deliberately exposed him to these acts, not fearing that it would repulse Su Bin. Instead, they aimed to fuel his hatred toward the emperor..
