Shadow guard, he carried my cub

On the day when Chi Ming returned to the palace, the queen mother asked the imperial dining room to cook a table of delicious dishes for her majesty to have a meal at Renshou Palace.

The queen mother knew that her royal son was busy and had to go out of the palace often. To be honest, it was a lie for her mother to say that she was not worried, but the queen mother would never persuade Chi Ming, no matter whether Chi Ming left the palace for the country or for herself, As the queen mother, she can't stop her.

The queen mother can only pray that her royal son will be safe and prosperous when Chi Ming leaves the palace, and then ask the imperial dining room to prepare a table of good dishes when Chi Ming returns to the palace. Washing the dust can be regarded as comforting the empress dowager's frightened heart.

However, no matter how many things Chi Ming had just returned to the palace, he would take time out to have dinner with the Queen Mother at this time.

This time was no exception, there were only the queen mother and Chi Ming on the table, behind them stood Shui Qinglian and the court lady ready to serve at any time, and the queen mother kept adding vegetables to His Majesty's bowl.

"The queen also eats."

As a courtesy, Chi Ming also put the Queen Mother's favorite dishes into the Queen Mother's bowl.

After half of the meal, Chi Ming suddenly thought of something, and asked it out of nowhere.

"Mother, have you ever heard of Paradise Valley?"

When Chi Ming asked this question, he didn't seem to have thought about it. The Valley of Elysium is a sect in the world. How could a person like the Queen Mother, who lives deep in the palace, have heard of the Valley of Elysium?Just thinking about it, I feel that the Paradise of Paradise and the Empress Dowager have nothing to do with each other, just like a beggar on the street, you have to ask him about the character of the teacher taught by the Imperial College.

But for some reason, Chi Ming suddenly wanted to ask this question, and subconsciously felt that the Queen Mother should know about the Valley of Elysium. After saying that, Chi Ming felt that it was absurd. Even he had never heard of the Valley of Elysium, let alone the Queen Mother.

However, the Queen Mother panicked when she first heard the Valley of Bliss. Even though it was only for a moment, Chi Ming caught it sensitively, and immediately became suspicious.

The Queen Mother asked uncomfortably: "The Valley of Bliss? Where is that place? Ming'er, have you met someone from the Valley of Bliss?"

Chi Ming observed the queen mother for a while, and saw a trace of tension from the queen mother's expression.

"No, my son accidentally heard about the Valley of Bliss when he was out of the palace, so he asked his mother if he knew about the Valley of Bliss."

The Empress Dowager secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "The Empress Dowager would never know about this Jianghu matter, and Ming'er should not think too much about it."

"Yes, Erchen knows."

This was the first time that Chi Ming lied to the Queen Mother. There was something strange and Chi Ming chose to hide it. He knew that the Queen Mother would not harm him, but he also wanted to find out the truth.

Afterwards, Chi Ming checked all the books in Zangshuge, but he did not see a single word about Bliss Valley in the book. Is it because there is no record in the book of Bliss Valley, a big valley that has disappeared for many years, or is it just that the Zangshuge in the palace has no information about it? The Book of Elysium?Even Wu Jiu has learned about the Valley of Elysium in books, there is no reason why there is no library in the palace, unless someone deliberately does it.

Chi Ming was even more puzzled, and this further confirmed what he thought in his heart, could it be that the Valley of Elysium had some connection with the imperial palace, so that the palace never collected anything about the Valley of Elysium.

Qianqiu Pavilion.

"There are already three Dragon Breaking Stones, and finding the other two will cure the poison on your body."

Shen Qiuchen also put away the two dragon-breaking stones that Chi Ming gave him properly, and looked back at the man, who seemed to be thoughtful and silent, and asked, "What's the matter? What happened to you when you left the palace this time?"

"Elysium Valley, have you ever heard of it?"

Shen Qiuchen's eyes lit up immediately: "I've read about this valley in medical books. I heard that there are rare medicinal materials everywhere in the Valley of Elysium, including unicorn horns and phoenix hair. I always thought it was a legend. Why? There really is a Valley of Elysium in the world? "

"Not only that, I also met people from the Valley of Elysium when I left the palace this time."

"Really? Are you familiar with it? Don't mind if I dig some medicinal materials in the past."

Shen Qiuchen's eyes lit up excitedly, as if even the small hoe and the medicine basket for collecting herbs were ready.

Seeing the other party's appearance of "what's the serious illness", Chi Min suddenly felt a pain between his brows, and he didn't bother to talk to others about whether there are very few people in Bliss Valley.

"I doubt that the Valley of Paradise has anything to do with the royal family, otherwise the Queen Mother wouldn't talk about it."

When it came to business, Shen Qiuchen immediately returned to seriousness: "What is the purpose of Paradise Valley?"

"It is rumored that the former owner of Bliss Valley was a heinous villain, and all the rare treasures in Bliss Valley were robbed by him, but I don't feel any malice towards Qi Yunxiao."

"It's not that you never believe in rumors, you only pay attention to seeing is believing, since you think there is no problem, then there is no problem."

"Having said that, I still want to find out the relationship between the Valley of Elysium and the royal family. It's not normal for Qi Yunxiao to hand over the Broken Dragon Stone without asking for fame and fortune."

Shen Qiuchen agrees with this, after all, there is no such good thing as a pie in the world.

"Since the queen mother deliberately hides it from you, are you not afraid that the queen mother will be angry?"

"Naturally, I want to hide it from my mother for the time being, and I will tell my mother after I find out the matter."

"Don't worry, I will help you hide it from the Queen Mother."

In view of the other party's previous dishonesty and turned around and told the Queen Mother about his poisoning, Chi Ming coldly threatened before leaving: "You better be like this, and next time I will have someone pull out the weeds you planted." clean."

Hearing this, Shen Qiuchen corrected loudly: "That's not grass, it's medicine! It's medicine! You're the only one who grows grass!"

To say that his precious herb is a weed?The head could be bleeding or the medicinal herbs that insulted him would not work, Shen Qiuchen was furious, but it's a pity that His Majesty turned around gracefully and didn't even give him an extra look.

Shen Qiuchen cried to Ai: "A tyrant, definitely a tyrant!"

The night is full of stars, Wu Jiu sits in the inn room with the window wide open, the starlight from the window reflects cold light on half of his gilt mask, adding a bit of loneliness and arrogance to Wu Jiu, as if The flowers of Gaoling cannot be picked.

A masked man in black suddenly came in through the window and knelt down at Wu Jiu's feet: "My lord, my subordinates were ordered to investigate the hospital where Yiying was injured by Yang Fan more than two months ago. It was found that Yiying's medical records stated that she was pregnant and had a miscarriage."

Wu Jiu was greatly shocked: "Are you sure!"

"It's true. Although the doctor in the hospital never mentioned it to others, his subordinates sneaked into the hospital and found a well-locked medical record. The time and name were correct. The subordinate even pretended to be a patient to test it out. The doctor in the hospital spoke, but the other party's words seemed to be concealed."

Wugui slapped the table and gritted his teeth in hatred: "The dog emperor!"

Wu Jiu almost gritted his silver teeth, it seemed that if Chi Ming was in front of him at this moment, he would definitely pounce on him and smash the dog emperor to pieces.

Starlight sprinkled Wu Jiu's body, and a thought quietly emerged in Wu Jiu's heart.

Chi Ming said he wanted to investigate the Bliss Valley, but he didn’t know where to start. After all, Bliss Valley has disappeared from the rivers and lakes for so many years, and there are no books about Bliss Valley in the palace’s collection. It seems that the only way to find out the truth is from Qi Yunxiao’s mouth. I got it, but Qi Yunxiao should have told him long ago if he wanted to.

Sitting in front of the table, Chi Ming's thoughts were flying wildly. He always felt that there was something that he had overlooked. He didn't feel it before. Ever since he met Qi Yunxiao, this inexplicable feeling of forgetting something appeared, and his intuition told Chi Ming that This matter is very important, but whenever Chi Ming wants to think about it carefully, that thought disappears like a snowflake.

Chi Ming rubbed his brows in annoyance and felt a headache. A pair of slightly cold fingers touched Chi Ming's temples, pressing slowly and gently, which relieved his headache in good time.

"Ok?"

Chi Ming leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes enjoying himself, letting Yiying serve him with peace of mind.

"The master is worrying about the Paradise of Paradise?"

"Well, for some reason, I am very concerned about the relationship between the Valley of Elysium and the royal family, or the relationship between the father and the queen."

"The subordinates also see that the Qi Gu master is not malicious to the master, maybe next time we meet the master, can we ask him face to face?"

"I'm afraid there is some unspeakable secret in it, if Qi Yunxiao wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago." Chi Ming paused and said, "Can someone investigate the matter of kidnapping and selling men in the Embroidery Workshop?"

"My subordinates have sent shadow guards to investigate, please rest assured, Master."

"I've always been at ease when you do things, and if there is any news, let me know as soon as possible."

"Yes."

At this time, the servant suddenly came to report that the Secretary of the General Administration, Mr. Yu, asked to see His Majesty.

Chi Ming never refuses any minister's request to see him, and the minister who asked to see him must have something important to do.

Chi Ming sat up straight: "Xuan."

A moment after the servant stepped back respectfully, Mr. Yu entered the hall, followed by a man wearing a veil.

"Your Majesty, Yu Shen."

Yu Shen knelt down to salute, and the man knelt down after Yu Shen.

"Be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What's your report, Aiqing?"

Yu Shen and the man stood up, Yu Shen said: "Your Majesty, this person found the official yesterday and said that he had something important to see His Majesty, the official did not dare to delay and brought him here."

Chi Ming heard that and looked at the man with a calm tone: "What do you have to tell me?"

The man was not in a hurry, and his voice was clear and pleasant: "The Caomin have admired His Majesty for a long time, and their lifelong wish is to be able to serve His Majesty, and I hope that His Majesty can fulfill the wish of the Caomin."

The man was not at all embarrassed when he said these words, his words were fluent as if he was talking about something ordinary, even Yiying couldn't help but look at the other person with a little surprise on his face.

"absurd!"

Chi Ming slapped the table angrily.

There have been people who used beauties and money to please their superiors in all dynasties, but he never allowed anyone to play these tricks in front of him.

In the past, some unsightly officials wanted to use this to curry favor with Chi Ming, but they were all severely punished by Chi Ming. After that, no minister dared to pay attention to this. Unexpectedly, Yu Shen dared to commit a crime knowingly after eating a bear's heart.

"Yu Shen! I see that you don't want that head of yours anymore!"

Yu Shen was so frightened that his legs trembled and immediately knelt down again: "Your Majesty, I really don't know about it. I just think that this person has something important to ask to see His Majesty."

Yu Shen's body was shaking like a sieve, and his back was full of fine cold sweat, after all, he was a real bully.He is just a small General Secretary and Counselor. Usually His Majesty will not look at him more. If you want His Majesty to remember him, you must do something decent, but this kind of opportunity is not so easy to come across.

When the man came, Yu Shen was reluctant at first, after all, if he didn't do it well, Long Yan would be furious, but the man swore that His Majesty would not blame him, but would reward him, if he was really afraid, he would pretend not to know Pushing everything on him is the man's confidence. Yu Shen finally can't stand the temptation of fame and fortune and agrees. This is undoubtedly not a gamble for Shen.
