Even if you wear fast female accessories, you should also be brave enough to look bad

The pursuit of the remaining members of the Shadow Killing Party was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Yanxu needed to report to the Holy Master within a certain period of time.

In the imperial study, the emperor sat on a chair, Prime Minister Liu and Yan Xu stood on both sides of the table, and the atmosphere was quiet.

"Reporting to your majesty, the matter of Killing Shadow has been traced to Su City. After investigation, several murders in Su City were indeed committed by Shadow Killing."

"Following Su Cheng's clues, I caught a remnant of the Shadow Killer. He has been put into prison and is being interrogated strictly."

The emperor's frown relaxed a little, and his expression became much better. "The regent acted decisively. I really did not misjudge the person. It is indeed the right choice to leave the matter of killing the shadow to you."

"This is what a minister should do." Yanxu lowered his eyes.

Prime Minister Liu twirled his beard and snorted almost inaudibly.

He took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Shadow Killing incident has caused panic among the people in the palace. It would be better to resolve it as soon as possible. Why not send more people to cut the mess with swords?"

"The manpower under Wei Chen is at your Majesty's disposal at any time."

The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and said, "No need, I will leave this matter to the regent. I am very relieved."

"Besides, I think the regent will definitely live up to my expectations, right?"

Yanxu concentrated his attention and said in a calm tone: "Yes."

.........

Outside the corridor, two figures walked side by side.

"The Prince Regent has never been sloppy in doing things in the past. Why is the matter of killing the shadow so procrastinating this time?" Prime Minister Liu said with an unclear smile.

"Could it be that he has some kind of relationship with the people in Killing Shadows?"

Yanxu's eyebrows were filled with indifference, and he didn't take Prime Minister Liu's words to heart at all, "Instead of worrying about this for me, Prime Minister Liu, it's better to deal with your own affairs first."

Prime Minister Liu had just messed up something the emperor had given him not long ago, which was why the emperor didn't look good on Prime Minister Liu in the study just now.

Prime Minister Liu's face turned green when he was lightly stabbed by Yan Xu. He sneered and said, "Thank you for your concern, Prince Regent."

Yanxu nodded slightly and said without any politeness: "This is what a junior should do."

Prime Minister Liu stopped where he was, looking coldly at Yan Xu's retreating back, wondering what he was thinking.

---

Yanxu walked on the palace road, with Chenfeng following him. When he turned a corner, he saw Yun Qian a few steps away.

Yun Qian stood there, as if waiting for someone on purpose. When she heard footsteps, she looked up.

The moment he saw himself, Yun Qian's eyes lit up, and Yan Xu's eyes collided with Yun Qian's.

"Your Highness."

Yun Qian walked towards Yanxu, the big cloak on his body fluttering in the wind.

Yanxu glanced at the girl's nose that was slightly red due to the wind, which reminded him of a soft and white rabbit.

"Why are you here?" Yanxu asked.

Yun Qian smiled with crooked eyebrows, as if she was happy because she met the person she wanted to meet, "The Queen Mother summoned me into the palace. After I came out, I thought you should still be discussing things at this hour, so I came here to try my luck."

"I didn't expect to actually meet His Highness."

Although Yan Xu's eyebrows were still calm for a moment, the coldness in the imperial study room just now has dissipated a lot.

"Do you have anything to do with me?" Yanxu asked.

Unexpectedly, after asking, Yun Qian was a little dissatisfied.

"I don't like hearing what Your Highness is saying. Do I only go to Your Highness when something happens?"

Yan Xu was silent, and Yun Qian narrowed her eyes and smiled again: "I heard that the osmanthus flowers in the south of the city are blooming beautifully. Your Highness must be very busy these days with killing shadows, so I want to invite His Highness to enjoy the flowers together."

Before Yanxu could speak, Chenfeng approached him and said, "Your Highness, I have some important matters to take care of this afternoon."

Although the voice was small, Yun Qian still heard it, and her eyebrows instantly drooped, "Is there something important, Your Highness?"

"Forget it, I can go to watch the flowers anytime, it's more important to take care of business."

This expression was so aggrieved that even Chenfeng didn't know whether he should have said that just now.

But Yanxu did have important matters to deal with.

For some reason, Yanxu didn't want to see an expression similar to disappointment on the girl's face, not at all.

So by mistake, Yanxu said: "It may not be possible this afternoon, but it will be possible tomorrow."

Almost instantly, the girl's eyes lit up again, and a bright smile appeared on her face that had been clouded just now.

"Really?" Yun Qian asked.

Yanxu nodded.

"Then it's a deal."

.........

There is a huge osmanthus forest in the south of the city. It is not artificially planted, but a naturally growing osmanthus forest.

When the sweet-scented osmanthus blooms, the fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus in the forest often spreads far away, making people passing by feel relaxed and happy.

The breeze blew, and small flowers fell from the branches, falling on the visitors' heads and shoulders.

Yun Qian put her hands together to catch the flowers that fell from the tree, and before she knew it, she had caught a small full cluster with a fragrant fragrance.

She put the sweet-scented osmanthus she received into a brocade bag she carried with her, and then pulled up the drawstring, so that the petals could no longer fall out.

"Your Highness rarely comes to places like this, right?" Yun Qian tilted her head and asked.

"Very few." Yanxu answered simply.

The girl laughed, her happiness visible to the naked eye. It was difficult for Yanxu not to be infected by such emotions, and a gentle emotion filled her brows.

"Your Highness, don't worry too much about yourself. Occasionally you can come out to enjoy the flowers and the scenery."

Ling'er and Chenfeng were left beside the carriage, so there were only Yun Qian and Yanxu in the sweet-scented osmanthus forest at this moment, as well as a few passers-by.

Yun Qian took something out of his sleeve, put it into the brocade bag, and then handed the brocade bag to Yanxu.

"Your Highness, this is for you."

Yanxu stopped and did not reach out to take the brocade bag: "What can you do for me?"

"The things I just put in were obtained from the temple and can keep His Highness safe and smooth." Yun Qian did not answer why she gave it to him.

It’s not that no one has given Yanxu things to bless peace, but on the contrary, many people have given them to her.

There are strings of beads that have been illuminated, jade pendants that are carried around, etc., etc., these are just some methods used by some people to please Yanxu.

But this time it seems to be different. I don’t know if it’s because the person giving it is different, or the things being given are different.

The air was filled with the scent of osmanthus, but Yan Xu seemed to think that the scent came from the brocade bag in Yun Qian's hand.

Something started to change.

Yanxu narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to take the brocade bag, "...Thank you very much."

Yun Qian breathed out to adjust the atmosphere: "I thought His Highness was going to say..."

She imitated Yanxu's expression and tone, "No need."

The corners of Yanxu's lips curved slightly, and this time it was a real smile, although it was very weak.

His fingertips gently rubbed the pattern on the brocade bag, the smooth and comfortable fabric rubbed against his fingertips, and the fragrance filled his hands.
