In charge

In June of the 17th year of the Yuanming Dynasty, it was discovered that the mastermind behind the poisoning of Princess Zeyin was Li Ruhai, a young eunuch from the pharmacy of the imperial hospital, because Li Ruhai had given the wrong medicine.Li Ruhai was executed, and the medicine hall was thoroughly cleaned.Now all the medicinal materials and food sent to Huanyu Palace must be jointly inspected by the three imperial physicians.

Of course, this result made many people dissatisfied, but Shu Yunci was satisfied.

In October of the 17th year of the Yuanming Dynasty, the eldest prince was granted the title of King Huairen, and he went to the fiefdom.The Eldest Prince's departure from Beijing means that he has withdrawn from the battle for succession to the throne.Unless the remaining two princes died and the emperor had no other heirs, the eldest son of Emperor Yuanming would not be eligible at all.

Such an imperial decree touched the nerves of too many people.For a time, there were countless speculations in folk temples.Everyone couldn't imagine what was the reason that the eldest prince who was originally the most qualified to inherit the throne was kicked out of the capital by Emperor Yuanming.

There is a lake named Yuhu in the palace, which is not far behind the Huanyu Palace.In summer, lotus flowers bloom on Yuhu Lake, and concubines like to watch it by the lake.However, it is winter now, and although Yuhu Lake is not frozen, there are few people coming here again.

Few people know that there is a secret road beside Yuhu Lake, but it leads directly to the bottom of the lake.There are several secret rooms at the bottom of the lake, in which lived several high-ranking men.

Why Shu Yunci knew, she couldn't even remember.Maybe this is God's will in the dark, or it's because several experts took a fancy to her when she was very young, so they deliberately led her into the secret room when she was three or four years old.Her martial arts were taught by these experts.The preaching is actually not accurate, because these experts have not taught her anything except giving her some martial arts secrets.Then she practiced martial arts by relying on these few obscure and incomprehensible secrets, which were like heavenly books.

The martial arts of several masters are completely different from each other. She needs to practice several completely different internal forces at the same time. It is really her talent that she has not gone crazy.

At this moment, her small body was standing on an extremely thin rope, and the rope did not fall, as if Shu Yunci's body had no weight.

An old man whose hair and beard had almost grown together frowned and said, "Little Ci'er, have you learned any new kung fu with a few other old ghosts recently? I think your internal strength is not quite right."

"Recently I got a secret book, I practiced it for a while, and I think the effect is not bad. At least when I was poisoned before, I felt that using it to force poison was still very effective. It is much more effective than your set of chemical transformation skills." Shu Yunci turned over Get off the rope, with a wave, the rope broke in two.

"Hey hey!" The bearded old man was so angry that his beard pouted. "You girl, why did you break my celestial silk again? I don't have many of them, so what will I use in the future?"

Shu Yunci raised his eyebrows, "Fight against me, I'll get you one next time."

"You're not in good health yet." The bearded old man shook his head.

"If I'm healthy, you can beat me?" Shu Yunci raised his chin slightly, and the bearded old man gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Little Ci'er, you are good in everything, but you are too crazy." After he finished speaking, he flicked his beard and hit Shu Yunci together.

A few heads soon appeared at the door of this secret room.They are all the same age as the bearded old man. These people are fat and thin, and they all have curious expressions.

"Do you think a bearded man can beat little Ci'er?" a fat old man asked.

"He couldn't fight a year ago. This time, it's just because of Xiao Ci'er's poor health that he lasted so long." Another skinny old man answered.

"By the way, who among us can beat Xiao Ci'er?" Old Man Gao asked on the other side.

Several people looked at each other, the fat old man raised his hand, "I'm okay."

The short old man who had been silent all this time gave a "cut", "Do you want to lose face? You have to fight with Xiao Ci'er for more than a hundred moves to win. Your life is to use your decades of internal strength to overwhelm Xiao Ci'er's internal strength." It's exhausted."

The fat old man's face was neither red nor out of breath, "What about you?"

The little old man fell silent at once.He also had decades of internal energy, but before he exhausted Shu Yunci's internal energy, he lost.

"So only the boss can defeat Xiao Ci'er." I don't know who said this, and they glanced at each other, and then looked up at the sky together. After looking for a while, they found that this was the bottom of the lake, and the top was covered with stone slabs. Nothing happened, so they could only focus on the two people who were competing.

"Hey, don't you think Xiao Ci'er's martial arts is weird. It's not what we taught at all." The skinny old man said.

Several people nodded.

At this time, Shu Yunci and the bearded old man had already decided the winner.Although Shu Yunci won, he was still a little out of breath.Her body seemed to be fine, but she still lost half of her life after all, and she didn't regain her vitality so quickly.

Seeing that the winner was decided, they were about to leave when a strong wind suddenly came over them. They shrank their necks and avoided it all together. Then they found that their hair seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost.

Now the old men were all in high spirits, they all entered the secret room, bent over, surrounded Shu Yunci with a smile on their faces, "Little Ci'er, what kind of kung fu do you do? Who did you learn from?"

Shu Yunci shook his head, "No, I figured it out myself."

The old men all took a deep breath, "I... pondered it myself?"

Shu Yunci flicked his fingers, and a few strong winds swept over, forcing the old men back a step, "Don't surround them so closely, it's airtight."

"You're using your internal strength when you're not in good health." The bearded old man took a breath and said disapprovingly.

Shu Yunci looked up at the five old men who grew up with him.They are technically somewhat menacing in appearance, but each has an extremely interesting personality.She still remembers pulling the beards of several people when she was unhappy when she was a child, but she still pulled one or two of them because of the pain.She didn't know why these people stayed here, but as proud as she was, she really liked these old men.These people are her masters and her playmates.

"Didn't you say that when my internal energy can continue to function, let me go to see the big old man?" In the innermost room of this secret room, there lived a person who was called "Boss" by these people.Shu Yunci had never met him before, but she was sure that the man had seen her.Most of the time, she can feel that a strange person is watching her secretly, but she just can't see it.The five old men said that as long as her internal force can continue to function and continue to live, she is qualified to meet the old man.This is her goal for the last two years.There are few things she has worked so hard for for two years to succeed.

The five old men looked at each other again when they heard the words, and both of them saw shock in each other's eyes.

"really?"

"Did you lie to us?"

"You seem to have learned some other martial arts recently, it must be fake."

A few old men chattered like a frying pan.

Shu Yunci frowned, he was so easy to make a fuss at his age, he was not stable at all. "Shut up!" She pointed to a few big rocks beside her, "Sit down."

The old men shut their mouths aggrievedly, and sat on the boulder one by one.Shu Yunci raised his chin towards the fat old man, "Fat old man, let's fight for internal strength."

The jaws of the five old men almost fell to the ground.The fat old man is more than 90 years old this year, but that is the internal strength of more than 80 years!

"Do you understand what I mean?" Seeing their surprised expressions, Shu Yunci had to confirm.

The fat old man got up and came over, "I understand. Come on, let me see how your inner strength can be endless."

The two palms faced each other, using their internal strength to fight for consumption.Of course, Shu Yunci's internal strength that has only been practiced for a few years cannot compete with the fat old man's internal strength of more than 80 years.She wants to compete with the fat old man for consumption.If her internal force can continue to operate, then it should be able to continuously generate internal force.That way she should be able to keep going.

The fat old man tried out the depth of Shu Yunci's internal energy after two trials. He confronted each other with the same internal energy, and the two worked together to consume it.

Several old men nearby were sitting on the rocks, no one spoke or moved.They were afraid of alarming Shu Yunci, it doesn't matter if something happens to the fat old man, but little Ci'er is the most important treasure of them, so there should be nothing wrong with it.

An hour, two hours... The fat old man suddenly withdrew his internal strength.Shu Yunci raised his eyebrows, "How?"

The fat old man looked back at the old men and nodded silently. "She really did it." He covered his face in annoyance, "What should I do? I won't be able to win even if I exhaust my internal energy in the future."

The other old men were silent.Shu Yunci looked at the crazy old men in a strange way, "What's wrong with you?"

"Little Ci'er," the fat old man said, "we thought it would take at least five years for you to develop your internal strength to this level. To be honest, we don't want you to meet the boss so soon. His martial arts are not easy to learn, and you Still too young."

The others nodded in unison.This moment is when they are most awake.

Shu Yunci stood up, and solemnly saluted the old men as disciples. "Thank you for your years of teaching, my mentors. I know you are doing it for my own good, but I don't have that much time. I will come back tomorrow, and I hope I can meet the old man." After she finished speaking, she gave the old men the most splendid Smile, then turn and leave.

Several old men looked at her back and couldn't help shaking their heads, "This girl is so powerful that she is a bit evil, I don't know if she will be evil in the future!" I don't know who sighed like that.

Coming out of the dark secret room at the bottom of the lake, Shu Yunci took a breath of cold air.After fighting her internal energy for two hours, even if her internal energy is functioning normally, she still feels very tired at this moment.In fact, the poison in her body could be completely forced out of her body long ago, but she found that the poison in her body would hinder the operation of her internal force. In order to break through this barrier, she had to expend more energy to run her internal force. Such practice is hard work. But the effect is surprisingly good.In this way, she intentionally kept the toxicity, so the whole palace knew that Princess Zeyin's health was surprisingly poor in the past six months, Emperor Yuanming almost emptied the warehouse in the palace, and all the precious medicinal materials were stuffed into the Magic Jade Palace.

The girl in black came early today, even before dark.Shu Yunci in the inner room was rarely seen lying on the bed, but he was still asleep, looking at the person who came in through the window with a pair of beautiful eyes.

"I can meet the most powerful person tomorrow," she said.

The girl in black narrowed her eyes slightly, "You are amazing!"

"That's natural." Shu Yunci didn't mean to be humble at all.She turned over and supported her head with one hand, "So you have to be even stronger, or I will despise you."

The girl in black knew that Shu Yunci was definitely not joking.Only those who are strong enough deserve to stay by her side forever.This point, I knew it a long time ago.

"Your Frost Art is progressing very quickly. Judging from this, you will be able to practice it soon." Shu Yunci saw the girl in black sitting down by the bed, and lay on her lap again.

This woman, uh... a girl is like a lazy cat, always likes to lie on people's lap.But once you reach out to stroke your hair, she will look at you with disgust.Of course, this is her attitude when she treats people she approves of.If it's someone she doesn't approve of, just scratch it with a paw as soon as it gets close to her, there's nothing wrong with it.

The girl in black reached out and stroked Shu Yunci's long hair that was still wet, "For so many years, you have given me the precious medicinal materials in the whole continent. If I haven't achieved something yet, it's because I have failed your painstaking efforts."

Sure enough, Shu Yunci who had his hair plucked looked at the girl in black with disgust, but still lay on her lap. "You also said it was my painstaking efforts. Since I can remember, I have never done anything that cannot be done, and there is no one who has misjudged it." That kind of pride really looks down on all living beings like a god.
