Chapter 394: How Dare You Guys

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Was there no one left in the Imperial Court? The Emperor actually sent a woman here!

This fact calmed Yi Kun down instantly, and a trace of a smug smile appeared in his eyes.

“Your Imperial Highness has finally brought the original blueprints. Now, we are lacking the original blueprints to cross-check against the dam to make repairs.”

“Go. Summon the main craftsmen who are responsible for repairing and building the dam. I want to personally ask them about the problems with the dam.”

Yi Kun complied with her order without even thinking. In his opinion, Su Ying couldn’t possibly understand these things. Summoning the staff here was just for show, so he simply sent for the staff very obligingly.

Only after everyone had arrived did Su Ying get someone to bring out the blueprints.

As Yi Kun looked at the blueprints, a dim dark glint appeared on his face.

“Tell me. What’s the problem now?”

Those craftsmen subconsciously glanced at Yi Kun, and Yi Kun nodded at them imperceptibly.

One of the craftsmen then stepped forward and said, “Your Imperial Highness, the problem with the new dam is at the number three side opening.” He picked up a blueprint and pointed at it. “This place suddenly collapsed a few days ago because this opening affected the main frame of the dam. Therefore, we need the original blueprints to check the location of the rest of the frame and repair them.”

From the other party’s words and the information described on the blueprint, one could roughly know that the frame of the dam was like a complicated and extremely large shelf. However, an opening appeared on the corner of the shelf that was used as support. It was like a bucket with a hole. When the flood waters rose, water would leak out from that opening.

Although the opening wasn’t big, it was on one of the supporting frame pillars. They were afraid that after the opening was formed, the opening would become bigger and bigger under the pounding impact of the surging flood water. Eventually, the entire dam would fall apart.

Once the dam collapsed, the flood water would gush downstream, and the people at the foot of the mountain would be overwhelmed by the water in an instant.

Su Ying had a rough understanding of the problem.

If it weren’t for Yi Kun’s strange behavior, Su Ying would have believed that the dam could be completely repaired. However, from the various signs Yi Kun was showing, things were definitely not that simple.

Su Ying looked at the craftsmen and nodded at the secret guards disguised as guards. The secret guards understood what she meant, and after the craftsmen left with the blueprints, they sent someone to follow them in secret.

“Your Imperial Highness, you must be really tired after rus.h.i.+ng to Jing Prefecture over the past few days. I have already ordered people to prepare a guest room. This way please, Your Imperial Highness.”

Su Ying nodded slightly and stood up.

After Yi Kun sent Su Ying to the courtyard, he was about to leave after bidding farewell when Su Ying called out to him.

“May 1 know what instructions Your Imperial Highness has?”

Su Ying looked at him and the corners of her lips curled up faintly.

Yi Kun was stunned by the faint smile on her face. He subconsciously touched his face and thought to himself, “This expression on the Empress’s face… Could it be that she wants me to stay and serve her?”

Yi Kun looked at the Empress. She had a very round oval face, but it was matched with a pair of heroic and sharp eyebrows. Her nose bridge was high, making her eyes look even more deep set. It was really an aggressive and beautiful face.

Yi Kun was stunned when he saw her face. He did not expect that he would have the chance to look directly at the Empress’s beautiful face at the peak of her beauty.

For some inexplicable reason, he walked over to Su Ying.

Su Ying waved her hand, and the door behind her closed.

The smile on Yi Kun’s face deepened. That was why he said that he would never let women take charge of things. Stupid women would always ruin things.

As long as he served her well, he could do whatever he wanted for the rest of the matters!

“Your Imperial Highness, what are your orders?”

Su Ying slowly extended her hand toward him. Just as Yi Kun was about to lean his face against Su Ying’s hand, her wrist turned and grabbed his neck.

Yi Kun was so shocked that he wanted to break free, but Su Ying slowly stood up from the chair and lifted him up until his legs were suspended above the ground.

Yi Kun’s eyes turned as wide as saucers in shock. It never occurred to him that Su Ying the Empress would be so highly-skilled.

“Yi Kun, do you know how 1 like to deal with dishonest people?”

Yi Kun’s face gradually turned red, and the veins on his neck popped out.

“Your Imp… Imperial Highness… spare… spare my life…”

Yi Kun felt his vision going black, and the air in his chest became less. He opened his mouth stiffly. Just as he was about to lose consciousness, Su Ying abruptly let go and threw him to the ground ruthlessly.

Yi Kun fell down in a distracted daze. He felt as if his bones were about to shatter, and the pain was so excruciating that he screamed in anguish.

He shouted loudly to attract his men here, but he did not know that his men had long been dispatched off by the secret guards.

“Your Imperial Highness, what… what are you…” When he saw Su Ying approach, Yi Kun was so frightened that he backed away repeatedly.

Su Ying went up and stepped on his chest, her almond-shaped eyes br.i.m.m.i.n.g with iciness. “Yi Kun, I’ll give you a chance to keep your corpse intact. Speak. What’s the problem with Aquarius River’s new dam?”

Yi Kun gripped Su Ying’s foot tightly, trying to pull her away, but he realized that he couldn’t move her at all.

“All… all the… problems… problems have been… have been mentioned just now…”

“Still stubborn? It seems that you haven’t suffered enough.”

Su Ying tapped the tip of her foot on his chest. “I’ll ask you a series of questions. For every question that you don’t answer honestly, I’ll break one of your ribs.

“What exactly is the problem with the dam? Speak!”

“It’s… it’s that opening… because the gravel used was not up to standard, it collapsed… Argh!” Before Yi Kun could finish, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. One of his ribs was broken.

“What is the real problem with the dam?”

Su Ying’s foot had already landed on his other rib.

“I.. I’ll tell you… Your Imperial Highness, spare… spare my life. It is really… a problem with the gravel. In order… in order to save money, we changed to a type of cheap gravel. We thought it would work… Argh!”

The second bone broke with a cracking sound.

“Yi Kun, you won’t learn unless you are taught a hard lesson.”

“It’s the gravel. It’s true. The entire dam… the gravel in the entire dam is problematic…” Yi Kun finally couldn’t bear the immense pain and screamed in terror.

Su Ying’s expression changed and the killing intent instantly burst out from her body. Her two eyes widened as she lifted him up from the ground. Her voice had never sounded so bloodthirsty before. “What you are saying is, the gravel in the entire dam is of poor quality? The whole thing is problematic? The whole dam could collapse at any moment like that corner!”

Yi Kun opened his mouth and his tongue was trembling. “Yes, yes… Yes!”

“Then why are you in a hurry to get the original blueprints?”

“To destroy… destroy the original blueprints. Even if the dam collapses, no one will know where… the problem is…”

In fact, not only did they find that there was a problem with the gravel, but there was also a problem with the entire frame of the new dam. However, because the frame was covered up inside the sand and mud, no one could tell. If the sand and mud were washed away by water, the frame would likely be exposed.

They felt that as long as they destroyed the original blueprints, no one would know what the original frame looked like.

“d.a.m.n it! How dare you! How dare all of you!” Su Ying’s fist ruthlessly smashed into the green brick behind him, shattering it into pieces!

Su Ying pulled open the door and her expression was extremely unpleasant.

“Your Imperial Highness.” The secret guard sensed that something was wrong and immediately went forward.

“Keep an eye on that b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Don’t let him die.”

“Yes, Your Imperial Highness..”
