Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 394

Chapter 394: Chapter 386: I Want to See Him

Xue Yinzhou noticed that ever since Shen Tang returned, he seemed out of sorts and his complexion was poor.

He softly asked, "What happened, Tangtang?"

Shen Tang spoke quietly, "I saw him."

"What?"

"I saw... Emperor Yiyuan."

Xue Yinzhou was taken aback, his expression somewhat complex. Her demeanor suggested that seeing the emperor wasn’t a simple matter.

Shen Tang took a deep breath, suppressing his tangled emotions, and spoke in a low voice, "I don’t know if he is Shen Li, but he looks so much like Shen Li, no, they are almost identical! But the feeling he gives off is completely different, making him seem like a stranger, and I don’t dare to step forward and recognize him."

"Could they be brothers?" Xue Yinzhou asked softly.

He didn’t want to think of the worst case, but he feared she would be hurt. The disappointment after hope is true despair—or even greater despair.

Shen Tang shook his head sorrowfully, "It’s not impossible, but how could such a coincidence happen in this world?"

In the Beast World, the birth rate is low, and most females can only give birth to one child. During pregnancy, the embryos will kill each other, leaving the strongest one.

The probability of multiple identical births is extremely low.

Even if mermaid females have more children, it also depends on the bloodline of both parties. Generally speaking, the stronger the bloodline, the fewer children they have, just like the Mermaid Empress Jialouluo and the Sea Race High Priest Lunus, they only had Jia Lan.

Of course, there are exceptions, and the system said she and Shen Qingli are identical twins.

But with such a low probability, it couldn’t happen to her twice, right!

Xue Yinzhou said, "The treasure was handed over, and the Ritual Officer sent it to a specialized institution for appraisal. The earliest result will be out tomorrow morning. We can stay in the palace for one more day."

Shen Tang made up his mind, "I must meet this emperor in person!"

No matter if he is Shen Li or not.

She must uncover the truth.

Xue Yinzhou said, "Then I’ll go with you."

Shen Tang shook her head, "No, you’re too conspicuous. Ever since we entered the palace, these people have been on guard against you. There’s no way they’ll let you see the emperor... You stay here with the others, and I’ll go see the emperor."

If the emperor really is Shen Li, then everything will be fine.

If the emperor is not Shen Li, with her ability, she can still escape unharmed.

Xue Yinzhou frowned, but could only agree, "Then promise to stay safe, I’ll wait nearby."

"Hmm."

The attendants led their group to a remote courtyard for temporary accommodation.

Shen Tang waited until no one was paying attention, then transformed into her true form and climbed over the wall to roam around.

She dared not hastily open the system map again.

Listening to the servants’ conversation on the road—the emperor is now in Huaqing Palace.

She immediately rushed over.

Upon reaching outside Huaqing Palace, as Shen Tang changed into human form to enter, she was stopped by guards, "Idle individuals, without a decree, cannot meet the monarch."

"I’m sent by the merchant boss to personally deliver something to His Majesty."

"No, no matter who you are, you must have a summon order."

Shen Tang had no choice but to leave first, find a secluded corner, and transform again to sneak into the palace.

Suddenly, she stumbled upon a figure she least wanted to see in the distance.

Qiu Yang?!

He’s also in the Imperial Palace?!

Shen Tang’s thoughts scattered, her footing slipped, causing a few tiles to fall to the ground.

The guards immediately looked up, "Who?"

"Is there a stray cat over there?"
